“I’m playing chess with stars
Lights collide
I’m sending you my vibes
Through the sky
Guide me to northern lights
Ride on Cassiopeia
Welcome to my playground
Play with me”

prettyprophet: Trust us, it’s hot and muggy here too.

funny_bunny: SHUT YOUR WHORE MOUTH YOU FILTHY QUIM. YOU KNOW NO NOT WHAT YOU SPEAK OF.

prettyprophet: Oh fuck you, you made your choice for this summer.

funny_bunny: Like a FOOL.

Lavie Rhap: Ladies and gentleman, Shou-Tajima’s “Baby Stardust” artbook.

prettyprophet: You’re missing the star.

Lavie Rhap: My mistake; “Baby★Stardust”.

funny_bunny: IT NEEDS TO BE CAPITALIZED.

Lavie Rhap: “BABY★STARDUST”.

funny_bunny: Book of Dreams!

prettyprophet: Ain’t that just a publisher?

funny_bunny: BOOK OF DREAMS!

Lavie Rhap: Is this the first artbook of the year?

prettyprophet: I’m pretty sure it’s the first artbook since the goddamn collapse.

funny_bunny: THANK THE GENERAL FOR THIS RELEASE.

prettyprophet: And it brings us back to our very first release, “Angels at the Planetarium”. Yeah, the colored version of the two-page spread is in this.

Lavie Rhap: “BABY★STARDUST” is a full color collection of prints, fit into a hardcover folder.

funny_bunny: It’s not REALLY hardcover.

prettyprophet: Could’ve sworn it was harder than softcover, so we’re counting it hardcover.

funny_bunny: But they’re pin-ups! SEXY SHO-U TAJIMA PIN-UPS!

Lavie Rhap: I enjoy how Tajima draws both violence and nudity in such a dispassionate way, even when using color.

funny_bunny: How artsy!

Lavie Rhap: Funny, you still have the other Tajima artbook unscanned, is that correct?

funny_bunny: Sketch artbook, it is!

prettyprophet: Ok, hold up…..no new projects. Because……well, you all know why.

funny_bunny: And if I were to scan it on me own initiative…? Say, FOR ANOTHER GROUP?

Lavie Rhap: Would you?

prettyprophet: Uh, course he would, the fucking traitor.

funny_bunny: I’M the traitor?? MOI? OF ALL PEOPLE TO ACCUSE ME OF SUCH CRIMINALITY! PROPHET, YOU ARE DISGUSTING AND I WILL HAVE NO PART OF THIS NONSENSE. FARE THEE WELL, CONSORT OF BRUTUS.

Lavie Rhap: Didn’t we already use the Brutus reference for holstein?

prettyprophet: I don’t know, did we?

funny_bunny: All conspirators and conspiracies! WITH BARCODES ON YOUR EYES.

Lavie Rhap: Has “MPD Psycho” been completed?

prettyprophet: Think it’s still ongoing.

funny_bunny: “BABY★STARDUST”! SHO-U TAJIMA! SHOU TAJIMA! TAJIMA SHO-U! TAJIMA SHOU! SHO-U! TAJIMA!

Lavie Rhap: Another artbook scanlation by the Rabbit Reich.

prettyprophet: Will it be the last? Come on translators and editors, keep us bouncing for another year.

funny_bunny: DO IT FOR THE BEAUTY.

prettyprophet: Also want to add, go vote for Kritik der Animationskraft at the Aniblog Tourney. ak’s blog, so do it.

funny_bunny: DO IT FOR THE STARDUST.

But the Cowslip blooms in summertime.

“Don’t want to hear about your little problems
We’re not so political and nobody cares where you’re from, where you’re from
‘Cause you know that laugh, it’s a thing of wonder
We can wait, we can wait, we can wait for the morning to come, to come”

“Gisele Alain”, volume 2, chapter 6, slice of life old school France manga by Sui Kasai. Starring……Gisele Alain of All Trades. So that makes it 3 scanlations we’ve got featuring a titular girl now, the other two being “Acony” and “Sadomi” (5 if you count “Food Girls” and “Plastic Girl”), and yet another project we’ve adopted. Japan loves these apartment stories, eh?

You all can thank salsk for pushing this one, and ZerOMegA for sending over the raws (and then some). But you know, given the hella huge amount of new projects we got now………recruiting more editors and whatnot for the Rabbits might just get out Gisele faster……just a FYI.

“‘Cause if you run into the eye of the storm
To get round the back
You better hit the floor
‘Cause screaming
No, I can’t take it
I can’t take it
I can’t take it anymore”

“Present for me”, chapter 2……”Present for me”. The titular oneshot of Masakazu Ishiguro’s volume of manga oneshots. It’s about a robot, a girl, and the post-apocalypse. My fault on the delay for this release; it was actually finished last month or something but we wanted to release chapter 1 first…….and then this month got hectic.

Oh, and fuck humidity, by the way.

Mondays and Wednesdays, half-off at the Club.

“Come on get down
Come get down
Make amends, make a bow
Come on get down
Come get down
Mighty youth, here and now”

And here we are with Masakazu Ishiguro’s (the guy behind Soredemo) “Present for me”, a volume of oneshots. New project, new translator; you can thank salsk for pushing this one. First chapter: “Psychic Youth Brigade, Move Out!”…….which should give you some idea what it’ll be about. Well, some.

Enjoy the May Day.

“Especially important is the warning to avoid conversations with the demon. We may ask what is relevant but anything beyond that is dangerous. He is a liar. The demon is a liar. He will lie to confuse us. But he will also mix lies with the truth to attack us. The attack is psychological, Damien, and powerful. So don’t listen to him. Remember that– do not listen.”

And here’s “Acony” 18, so let this confirm something: there’s still more chapters incoming……..as if the index stating how many chapters there’d be wasn’t a giveaway. May take longer now, with ak being busy and all.

As for the whole newspost I put up a bit back, that was kind of a surprise……..because pretty much every manga raw we asked for got sent in, except “Kodama no Tani” (so far, at least). Big thanks to all who gave us the links. Now, “Gisele Alain” is the only thing we’d be doing next out of that bunch (alongside another project that’s in the works), but if there are any translators and editors wanting to work on that list…..

Anyways, enjoy the Walpurgisnacht.

“sperges me, Domine, hyssopo, et mundabor:
Lavabis me, et super nivem dealbabor”

And Patalliro’s back…….wait, chapter 83? Yeah, jumped ahead there to some totally unrelated chapters about the forces of hell. Thank Megaten for teaching me all about the Ars Goetia demons. Joint with Onadoru, download away.

“As long as houses are built, as long as tablets are sealed,
as long as brothers are at enmity,
as long as there exist strife and hatred in the land,
as long as the river carries the waters to the sea,
so long is there no likeness of death drawn
When the alu-demon and the eziz-demon greetaman,
then the Anunnaki, the great gods assemble
and the goddess of fate, she who with them determines fate, will do so,
For they determine death and life.
But the days of death are unknown to mankind”

And we’re back with Kei Toume’s “Acony”, chapter 17. red rabbits and the Rabbit Reich, joined together once more, for “Acony”, “Gun Frontier”, and “Arthur Pyuty”. You can thank iskra and ak for keeping up the RR for all that during the group collapse. Speaking of which, go vote for ak’s blog on Monday at Aniblog.

We’ll probably end up doing a re-release of 13-16 later for editing consistency. Course, we’ll need editors for that…….so if people want to join up, that would be damn great. Then there’s also this announcement right here.

And that’s it, enjoy the release.

There’s still recruiting too.

Did I mention we got a Twitter up again? So aside from that old news, we’re also looking for raws. Specifically these ones:

• “Gisele Alain” (vol. 2) by Sui Kasai – priority #1
• “Go West!” by Yu Yagami – priority #2
• “Hinamatsuri” by Masao Ohtake – priority #3
• “Kodama no Tani: Ouritsu Daigaku Sourangeki” by Aki Irie – priority #4
• “Reiroukan Kenzai Nariya” by Akihito Tomi – priority #5

While Gisele Alain would be the top pick, whichever one of these series we get first…….that’s the one we’re going to do. Believe it or not, there’s a deadline for this: May 3rd, 2012. Two weeks from now, if we aren’t able to find raws of these series (with working download links)….well, we may just never do them for……secret reasons, I guess. So please, help us out.
