Doki Doki! Tama-tan poster Nakayoshi 09/09

This is a really short chapter (not even 25 pages!) But it seems like it’s just wrapping up from last month’s chapter, so hopefully a new development will begin next issue.
(more…)

If you have any problems with the download link please comment!

Fuuuu~ I hope now that Jigoku Shoujo has come away from any kind of anime storyline, the manga will begin to focus a bit more on the main characters… but I really don’t know if that will happen orz

As far as I know, Del Ray have only licensed the first 9 volumes, not Shin Jigoku Shoujo or Jigoku Shoujo R… it will be a few years before they get around to releasing this far I think =_=

Heart no Diamond, Momo Chapter 13, Youkai Navi Luna with Shugo Chara-chan!

Ribon Issue 9, 2009; Heart no Diamond & Momo

So today there are two new chapter raws~ And also the Shugo Chara-chan/Youkai Navi Luna special. Tomorrow I will (hopefully) be posting up the first chapter of Jigoku Shoujo R as well~

Firstly the raws for Chapter 13 of Momo: (Edit to add it’s actually chapter 13… since I only get Ribon every other month I get confused about where it’s up to (ToT) ごめん~)

And…. Mayu Shinjo’s new series, Heart no Diamond (‘The Diamond of Heart’ is how it’s being subtitled in English in Ribon):

I will probably be posting a summary/part translation of this up soon too. It’s a huge 52 page first chapter though!

All raws are 200 dpi, so idk if anyone is looking to scanlate Heart no Diamond but feel free to use these raws if you are.

Anyway, last of the Shugo Chara-chan Specials…. this time Youkai Navi Luna with Shugo Chara-chan….

Jigoku Shoujo x Shugo Chara-chan

Sunday, August 16th, 2009

Here’s the second Shugo Chara-chan short manga, Jigoku Shoujo x Shugo Chara-chan xD Somehow the two series don’t seem to mix, though I laughed at the idea of Amu using her ‘Negative Heart ni, Lock On!’ on Enma Ai (and that they call her Ai-chan :’D)

Again, I forgot to mention that since I’m going to London next week, I’m going to try and pick up Ribon to read Mayu Shinjo’s new series ‘Heart no Diamond’ (I have to know what it’s like lol) So expect raws for that this coming week too. I’ll have the Youkai Navi Luna short finished tomorrow/Tuesday hopefully too.

Shugo Chara-chan in Arisa!

Arisa

Ah, totally forgot to mention that I was working on this…

Basically in Nakayoshi a few issues back, they had a Shugo Chara-chan special, where manga-ka from other series (Jigoku Shoujo, Arisa, Youkai Navi Luna) did short comics featuring the Shugo Chara characters Ran, Miki and Suu.

For anyone who doesn’t know, Shugo Chara-chan is a 4-koma that runs in Nakayoshi each month, featuring mainly the Shugo Chara(s). (It isn’t drawn by Peach Pit though)

Since the crossover element was kinda cool, I scanlated the specials. The other ones are from Jigoku Shoujo and Youkai Navi Luna, which I haven’t got around to editing yet. Oh and there was one that featured the Nakayoshi mascots, but I don’t think anyone will find that interesting tbh. I’ll be posting the rest over the next week.

Doki Doki! Tama-tan Volume 1 & Updates

Monday, August 10th, 2009

So I received the special edition of Doki Doki! Tama-tan last week ^___^ I will probably be getting the regular edition too at some point, but for now….

- The volume comes with the special edition CD, which is available for d/l at:

http://www.sendspace.com/file/w0uq1q

While renaming the tracks (to make it zippable) I got the track list mixed up ToT Sorry! So here’s the track list in the right order:

1. はじまりのあいさつ (Opening greeting)
2. うさみみショートケーキ (BunnyEars Shortcake)
3. Q&A ぱーと1 (Q&A Part 1)
4. はろぅわーるど☆ start up rmx (Hello World ☆ start up rmx )
5. Q&A ぱーと2 (Q&A Part 2)
6. おわかれのあいさつ (Farewell message)
7. ハートのリズム (Heart’s Rhythm)

The CD is narrated by Tama-tan (voiced by Momoko Saitou) so it’s a mixture of spoken word (A Q&A plus opening and ending tracks) and music.

As well as the CD, there’s a colour insert page in the special edition, here’s all the coloured artwork from Volume 1 (click images for larger pictures):

There will be more colour artwork this month as there was a Doki Doki! Tama-tan coloured poster in this month’s Nakayoshi, I will be scanning it and photoshopping it at some point too.

Ah, I’ve been kind of busy this last week so I haven’t had time to translate Tama-tan chapter 7 yet, but here’s what I’m woking on (and will be posted up on the blog before August is out)

★ Tama-tan Chapter 7 translation/summary post/scans

★ Translating the special edition CD which came with Tama-tan volume 1

★ Translate 4-Koma at the back of Tama-tan volume 1

★ Jigoku Shoujo Returns scans/translation (I might scanlate this depending on how much time I have)

★ More Youkai Navi Luna chapters.

★ Some more Nakayoshi one shots.
