tentative to-do-list
Like all translators I have some favourite stories that I like to hog. XD But depending on my time management and motivation, since I translate for another 3 teams, it will take forever before I go through all the them. So just because I've listed a bunch of stories doesn't mean they are off limits to others. If there's a group out there who'd like to work on any of these please let me know. :)


Manga:
- Dankoi by Amagi Reno (for Alek)
- Netsu Dendou by Meiji Kanako (for Yavannah)
- Irome by Sakuma Sakae
- Ashita Ame wa Furanai by Hirokawa Kazuho (for Mitzu)
- Call Me by Yamada Yugi
- Tenkyou Shimashita by Ishida Ikue
- J no Subete by Nakamura Asumiko (MAYBE, since it doesn't sit very will with LJ policies...)

One-shot:
- Yoru no Joou by Meiji Kanako
- Boku no Hatsukoi ni Tsuite by Takanaga Hinako (from Croquis)
- Give and Give by Shinba Rize (from Dakishimetemo Okorimasenka)
- Yume no Hate Mademo by Kagurazaka Hanko (from Yume no Hate Medemo)
- Boku no Atarashii Basho by Yoshino Luca (from Kimi no sei de boku wa)
- Hisomeku Koi no Koe by Fukai Yuuki (from Otousan wa tsumitsukuri)
- Kyou Shiawase na Koi wo Shiru by Machiya Hatoko (from Shachou to Hisho, Ai no Shoumei)
- Sore wa Boku no Ai janai by Fukai Yuuki (from Sore wa Boku no Ai janai)

First of all, thank you for your hard work! I gather you do 3 teams plus this on your own time, wow. I'm trying to do the same and just finding time to do it when I love translating isn't easy and I'm still new to this so I can only imagine how much effort you have to put and the time you have to make to make this happen.

Kudos to you!

But I'm really excited from the list of future projects you have. I'm REALLY looking forward to Nakamura Asumiko's "Doukyuusei". It looks splendid. As does her other work about the people in a cirque. Also looking really forward to "Netsu Denbou" since it looks different from what Meiji usually does. And of course, anything Amagi Reno does is just so fun.

Thank you so much for the latest of Sex Pissies and good luck! I'll be looking forward to it:D

Haha, you're pretty right about that, except I've been majorly slacking off from translating now I have all these people breathing down my neck. XDD

Honestly I'm very surprised Doukyuusei isn't taken by other bigger groups, it really is an awesome story. But I guess there isn't enough smut to generate interest? :P I really hope I can get the Meiji Kanako and Amagi Reno stories out soon, they are all overdue projects for people.... but anyway thanks for liking my list, sounds like we have very similar interests! :DDD

^___^ Looks like we do! I read Meiji Kanako's "Amai Hari" a while back and remember that it was violent and graphic. Which it not a bad thing but it wasn't what I was looking for that time. They say "Netsu Dendou" is very different and much sweeter so I'll definitely be looking forward to reading that! And take your time! No need to rush! I already died of happiness once when I saw my adored "Sex Pissies" chapter was out so thank you!!

Right you are! "Doukyuusei" has a different feel than the ones we're usually spoon fed and used to. And of course the art is so wispy and pretty. I don't believe it's because it's smutless, perhaps they just haven't noticed it yet simply or their hands are full with the titles they've already got. I love this mangaka's style so much that I'm trying to get my hands on Nakamura Asumiko's other title "Copernicus' Breath" which looks just AMAZING but haven't found it anywhereT___T

But then again, once you widen your horizon and fall into non-scanlated non-licensed RAW works, you find heaps and heaps of awesomeness. I still can't believe the amount of *amazing* stories out there that might never see the light of day if someone doesn't take the time to translate them. Like you, and perhaps me, soon, at a very slow rate.X___x

Now if only someone kind anonymous soul would continue "Silver D", my happiness would know no bounds, sigh, wishful thinking it is...<3

Oh yes Amai Hari is definitely not for the weak-hearted (so is "Kimochi no Yukue"), Netsu was the first manga I read by her, and I was all "awwwww so sweet!" and expecting it's her usual style, so imagine my shock when I read her other stuff!! And I'm not going to comment on my translation status anymore cos it seems like I can never keep my promise. ^_^;;;

I've not read Nakamura's other works, but I've seen nothing but good reviews about them so I'm sure they are all AMAZING. :) I know she has an older series set in a European school, is that the one you mentioned? As for me, I think I fell for Doukyuusei because I'm such a sucker for uke with Black hair and glasses. XDDDDD

Heee there's SO MUCH yaoi love that needs to be shared, you really should start translating already! <3

Do you have this series in Japanese raw? I've heard so much about it but I'm ashamed to say I've never read it...

Haha. Don't worry about it! I'm a patient person. Well, kind of. Well, only when I know I can do something about it. Like try and learn Japanese and understand it myself.XD

"Real 1/2" isn't softcore either@____@ In fact, like you said, most of her stuff's pretty hooh.

Yes, they are! Actually, that one's set in Paris but I can't be sure if it's set in a school but from my understanding that's not unlikely as it was made in 2002. I have a serious fondness for uke with black hair too!! And glasses, that's even better. Feeds the fangirl plenty.XD

Here's the mangaupdates link to the summary for Copernicus' Breath. Trust me, I've looked everywhere for it but nothing turned up. If I could find it, you'd be the first to know. You're probably the only one in my f-list who knows and loves Nakamura-sensei!

I know! SO *much*. I weep every time I realize that no one's even thinking of doing those awesome projects;___; I mean, it's one thing to translate but another to see the dialogues and beautiful SFX in English. It takes someone with powerful Photoshop skills and to me, that's the equivalent of an almighty as Photoshop is like talking duck speak to my face=__= Believe me when I say I wish I could do all that cleaning and editing myself.

I'll be looking forward to whatever you do! And stalking this here journal from time to time if you don't mind me too much.XP

Oh btw Doukyuusei is now being released by NAKAMA, but I got to work with them on it and they are awesome people so I'm happy. :D A shame I can't share the translation here though.

The world needs more Nakamura Love!!! My friends and I are going crazy over this new Hanaoto cover (http://hanaoto.net/comic_zm.php?comi100=70093), I can't wait to see what the story's about!! <33

AKFJHSERBNBFS.

Whoa. What an absolutely gorgeous cover and couple. I can't wait! I really want sensei to be more exposed. She's working with a few reputed mangakas and doing the art so it seems like sensei's a hopeful for making ground-breaking series.

And speaking of Nakamura-sensei, I read (well not reading since it was in ChineseT__T) the first three chapters of "Double Mints" currently running in Mellow Mellow magazine and this oneshot-perhaps-series called "Kaori no Keisyou" running in BexBoy GOLD and OMG. I almost choked noseblood into my screen. Let it be known that Nakamura Asumiko-sensei knows how to draw hot, heaving, passionate, sexy smut.O_____o And I am IN love with both of those! Especially "Double Mints"! SO SO SO SO SO GOOD!

By the way, not being familiar with BL magazines so much (well, more now than before;;), is it possible that artists will draw the cover but not have any stories running in the magazines? Like for Reijin Hyper Boys. Almost all the covers are drawn by the amazing Kasai Ayumi-sensei but I don't think includes any of her stories. Hmm, I'll have to recheck.

Also, I don't know but is Takashima-sensei finally coming back to usT__T??? I saw the upcoming February issue for BexBoy GOLD and I got REALLY REALLY excited hoping she was finally making a proper comeback to BL!! But.. Her dog flew to Germany? Do they have specials on the mangakas' status or something or is that an actual story or did I just totally read that wrong@___@*confused*

Anyway, it's really awesome that you got to work on Doukyuusei!! Really awesome! *sparkles* I was actually working on a personal translation on it for practice but I'm just so happy that it was Nakama that released it and even better that you worked on it!! Ah! So great^__^

Sorry I babbled so much. I'm just so excited that so much is happeningXD

I know OMG I CAN'T WAIT. <3333 (not to mention Doukyuusei's sequel Sotsugyousei is currently running in Opera and OMG the latest chapter is gonna be about their 'first time'!! XDDDDD)

I haven't read Copernicus' Breath but I have read All about J and When I was thirteen and OMG they're too awesome for words (the theme's not my type usually... waaaayy too angsty, pretty graphic and not very LJ-policy-friendly...but it pulls you in so bad, you simply cannot fault Nakamura <3) I know about Double mint as well, I heard it's a dark story too, right? I need to find out more about Kaori no Keisyou now! XDDD

I think Reijin is the only mag with a resident cover artist who doesn't draw manga chapters for it. But yes, it's possible for a mag cover to be drawn by an artist who's only contributing a poster/postcard or an interview and NOT a story (in Takashima's case, she has contributed 4 pinups). So yeah, you'll need to pay close attention to the actual lineup of the stories to make sure they have what you want. But the fact that they're using her work in a commercial mag means she doesn't have to hide underground anymore and we can expect her comback to be quite soon!! (unless she pulls a Kotobuki Tarako on us... ^^;;)

Aww you're too sweet. :3 Wish you all the best with your translation!! <33

Hi there!

Thanks for all your hard work (translating and all - especially SP!!)! *hugs & kisses*

I was wondering, if you're still up to it, would you like to scanlate Doukyuusei by Nakamura Asumiko with me?

I have the raws and a bit of editing skills around my belt.. .. Just, no translations. The manga looks great if only I could understand it T_T


PM me if you're still up to it. But if you're busy, then it's alright. XD

Once again, thank you for all your hard work!!

Ugh, sorry for not noticing this comment, obviously everybody loves Nakamura Asumiko! (Or have I replied before? Sorry I'm a bit braindead ^_^;;)
I'm currently working with NAKAMA and their translators on Doukyuusei, ch1 has been released recently and I'm sure you've seen it already. I look forward to bring the rest of the book to you and you can enjoy it!! :D

Nah, I don't have all the chapters, since it hasn't been published as the volume yet and you can only try find them in magazine scans. But when I do have them I'll post them up with translations! :)

Hello^^

I have started a new group (HotCakes), and we are looking for a translator to work on Doukyuusei by Nakamura Asumiko.
We have the raws, and they are being edited.
All we need is a translator^^

Thanks in advance.
