Working on Hajimete no Aku ch68

Hajimete no Aku ch66 was released earlier this week.

I started working on ch68 then as well (a few days before actually).  Stage 1 cleaning is done, waiting for a trans now.

And Manga fans.....please remember to thank the groups who make series you like.  Certain companies are starting to pursue legal action because of these series being available online (not from them).

So remember.....these groups are only around for now.  Someday, near or far, they can be forced apart.

More articles on this can be found here for some of it.

So please also remember to support the mangaka of the series you love by purchasing their work when available.  If they can't afford to get by.....they can't keep creating.

Been awhile but back for Hajimete no Aku

Haven't made a post in a bit so here goes an update.

I am currently in Typesetting and Stage 2 cleaning (SFX) for ch66 of Hajimete no Aku.

Current Anime season is going pretty good for those keeping up.
My favorite series of this season is Ichiban Ushiro no Daimaō.  Angel Beats is a second.  If you haven't watched them, You really should look them up......even if just on Wikipedia.
Can't wait to see the lineup for next season.  Hope it's good.

That's all for now.

Hajimete no Aku ch56 update and Anime stuff

Okay first off.....Hajimete no Aku ch56 is finished and up.  I finished it anyway even though some jackass group tried to usurp the project from the 2 groups which do it regularly.  They suck.  I'll start cleaning ch58 either today or tomorrow.

And new anime season has started.  Let's get a big applause here people.  I mean BIG.  Ichiban Ushiro no Daimaou looks like it might be interesting so I'm keeping up with it.  Kiss X Sis looks like it might be worth watching for the comedy act (even though slightly perverted--but who cares about that.....just adds to the enjoyment).

I don't know about any of the other series this season but I'll probably check some of them out.

Oh and I have heard that Baka to Test to Shokanju has been approved for a second season.  It's an interesting show that makes fun of pokemon type things so I'm happy about it.

Hajimete no Aku ch56

Hajimete no Aku ch56 should be done a day or two after the trans is released.

Stage 1 cleaning is done.
Translation recieved.

I'll start typesetting, sfx, and stage 2 cleaning tomorrow.

Onihime VS ch12

And a translation has been posted for Onihime VS ch12!!

Since this was one of my practice material chapters, I already have a cleaned version of it.

So later this week I might typeset it for the hell of it.

Update: Nevermind.  imangascans has already picked it up and did it.  Though hopefully this project will be continued.

Nick Simmons doing VERY bad things

I'm not sure how many people know of this yet.....but there is a MAJOR plagiarization incident going on involving a certain comic here in the US.

The comic series "Incarnate" by Nick Simmons (Gene Simmon's son) is published by "Radical Comics".  It has been discovered that, from what I've seen, nearly everything in it is taken from other series.  Bleach was apparently used a lot.

There are articles now available showing actual side by side pictures of some of these.  The images are almost EXACTLY identical.  This has apparently been known somewhat for awhile with no action taken by Radical.

But it looks like now enough people have banded together to bitch about it that Radical comics is FINALLY taking this seriously.  They are officially halting publishing until it's resolved.  They are also trying to contact the other publishers of the series the material has been taken from (stolen is a better term).

I hope Radical Comics truly understands what their lack of action until now will cause them.  People will lose trust in them.

Also they can face serious charges and such (especially since they have been told about this before but simply blew it off).

Seems to me this series, "Incarnate", isn't likely to stay around.  After this crap, I don't think ANY company would be stupid enough to actually support it.  And there was so little ORIGINAL stuff in it that you can't really make anything out of it.

I have one thing left to say about this.

NICK SIMMONS.....YOU SUCK YOU JACKASS

Oh and here's one of the articles.

Hajimete no Aku ch52 being started

Okay a raw for Hajimete no Aku ch52 has been uploaded to RAW Paradise.  The translation has also been finished.

There is however one problem.

THE ONLY RAW FILE I HAVE COME ACROSS IS HORRIBLE!!  THE QUALITY SUCKS BIG TIME!!

If anyone finds it in an actually "not sucking horribly" quality PLEASE TELL ME!

I'll start working with what I have.  But I really can't expect too much from this.  I would really prefer a better starting point for use.....photoshop can only do so much.  And starting with good quality usually gives better end results.

Update:
Good one available:  THANK YOU FINESTELA!!!  YOU ARE A LIFESAVER!!!  WONDERFUL JOB AS ALWAYS!!!

Stage 1 cleaning complete
Typesetting/stage 2 cleaning 50%

Should have it finished tomorrow or monday
