For those wondering about the artwork on the credits page, Ryouji Hirano did the illustration for the 5th Anniversary of the Young Ace Up website. It's available (for a limited time I think? From March until May.) as 3 wallpapers: 1 for PC, 1 for Android platforms (phones/tablets), and 1 for...
@Solistia Many Thanks to you and your group for all you have done for A Boy's Scar. A head's up: Hachi Inaba is starting a new series next month in Harta magazine (same magazine as Otoyomegatari/Bride's Story): https://twitter.com/gr178rg/status/1371292150474829826
Just putting this out there...
I would like to bring up two works for translation consideration:

The protags are a 14-year-old boy and a early-30's(?) woman police detective. It's a supernatural-flavored buddy-cop crime mystery series that, to my eyes, seems there's the...
Heh, the Volume 3 cover is traditional Chinese wedding garb (though I wonder what specific region, aren't there quite a few regional variations on Chinese wedding clothes?).
It's got me thinking that one of the later volume covers is going to be a Otoyomegatari/Bride's Story homage, with the...
@TheAnnoyingBob Yes, the president of the Hebinuma Medical Corporation has appeared before, you have just forgotten. He first appears as face on a billboard at the end of Chapter12, makes his first in-person appearance at the end of Chapter 13, & his first significant plot-relevant appearance is...
@Scourge17 The site you've posted has most of the chapters split into smaller pieces and the pieces listed as separate "chapters". For example, Chapter 1 was split into 2 halves and the 1st half was listed as "Chapter 1" while the second half is listed as "Chapter 2;" the first half of Chapter 2...
Many Thanks @princess_daphie & @iamrangerbob
This may just be me, but I could not help but think of this when I read page 26. I was also surprised, both here and the RAW, that Mashuu still had tears to shed; thankfully it was tears of joy this time not tears of melancholy or sadness.
This has to be a dream. I agree with @Makenai that Shige would not know the significance of that hillside overhang ridge where Seiichi got tossed off as an toddler.
Yo, the Volume 3 cover's looking good! Was beginning to wonder when that was going to be announced, since we were already past enough material for another volume.
So, two things:
1. Huh, so we have a partial answer now as to the true nature of this version of "Kowloon." I think now the other shoe to be dropped now is the revelation that this Kowloon is located inside Generic Terra, whatever that place is.
2. There goes my anxiety again, dreading the time...
@Moodyz Chizu is more than "a bit" older in this bonus chapter, she's significantly older. I'm pretty sure the implication is that this bonus chapter (and by extension the entirety of No Youna) takes place ~9-10 years after Sorenari ni Shinken Nandesu, since Chizu was in Kindergarten for that...
@ss4chris Ane Naru Mono is a monthly serialized series, it's been like that since the beginning. There was a point 2 years ago that the series went on a intermittent hiatus because Pochi Iida was having heart-related health problems. She has gotten better since then and has been able to resume...
