Springs have such a wonderful mechanic to them. The molecules of the metal resist any change to their structure, but the overall structure is quite flexible. So, when you pull on a spring, it tries to maintain its shape by pulling back. Then, with the spring a million machines sprung forth from its properties. Imagine a world where the spring never existed. Such a world would be so alien from the one we have now.

I believe I promised you guys from my edit on chapter 15 that I will edit in tanko translations for chapter 10. I never got around to doing that so here is chapter 16. There are a few lines in here that I didn't mark that I didn't like the sound of. Those lines I will probably get around to redoing during my Quality Check part of the scanlation. I'll give you guys 17 and 18 as well when I like the sound of most of the lines. I'll also get to volume 4 when I get to it. That's a fun volume. The artist really shows off her previous ero-art skills in there.

I thought I should put out another translation for all of you to see. Scanlation isn't getting any faster (I think it is getting slower... apply today!). Start of a new arc. I personally like this arc the best out of the four arcs currently out... The intro arc, the zombie arc, the fancy dinner arc, and the knife loli arc (These are not official names by any means).
Personally, I was hoping to have gotten chapter 18 out in scanlation by now, but speed of group is by no means fast, so we'll just keep chugging along.

EDIT: sigh... damn bastard who uploaded tanko raws... messing me up and having me redo/add in stuff.

Eh... I thought about it while playing darksiders. What I was thinking... should I post the other TL I have. And, I said, sure why not... There is probably a few dozen people who actually read this because I don't have the staff to churn out the scanlations at lightning speed (That is due to various reasons of various natures). So, I thought I should at least end the arc for those people... or you people I guess.
This of course might bring the question of... How many translations did bokolife already did?... Well... That's for me to know and for you to don't ask questions.

again, I got bored... and unable to come up with a new way to make the translation fun for me... I just sent it to google. Basically, I had google translate my english to french, then I had it translate it back to english. It's interesting. Most lines remain largely unchanged, but then there are those few key lines that get changed a lot. Most of the meaning remained intact. You can check it out for yourself by using google translate convert this translation to french then back to english.

Hello! Here is chapter 12 ending volume 2. The arc spills over to volume 3. and arc 3 spills over to volume 4... The author kinda just does his own thing and doesn't really care about the volumes. Which is cool... Since he does try to keep the end of a volume in a high note.
As always, the scanlations will take a while since the timing of the group members are never in sync. Anyways, it will always be nice to have an extra group member or two to do a side series or something. So, [inset generic recruitment message for kono-basho here].

This is a modified version of my translation for chapter 11. In this modified version, I imagined Iwai being a scottish new englander and Kiri as a white rapper poser. Basically I had iwai said bloody hell at every chance I had and kiri say fuck and bitch at every chance I had.
The important thing is I think it is funny.

Also of note, this is the Zombie Rape in what I call the zombie rape arc.

personal message to ruggia: If you ever need raws... just come and ask me.

In this chapter I saw the name "Naruto" and the first thing I thought was, "Didn't I call him Narudo in a previous chapter?" Then, of course I went oh shit. But, yeah... if I did TL'ed his name as Narudo in a previous chapter... sorry for that.

One important note for this chapter is that this tl is for the mag raw. The tanko differs much more in this chapter than in every previous chapter. I have marked off where it differs. I did not provide a translation for the change in the tanko because I like to think that if you have the tanko, then you would know at least somewhat how to read... Read More " "

Okay, now that that is done. Let me say why I put those there. The translations I put on mangahelpers are usually either reserved or a first draft that I don't want to see it popping up anywhere I don't like. If I don't put such a sign on the translation that means it is not reserved and I don't care what happens to it, but don't come asking me for translation checking since they are still quick drafts.

I am not picking this up. Well, I was but then I decided not to after about halfway through because of the time that I will need to translate a chapter.
Anyways, Hyuver will sooner or later finish and release chapter 6 of yumekui merry that has been left untouched and basically 3/4 completed for the last year. That is something to look forward to I guess.
Anime is good though. Not awesome just yet. Good though. Like the opening song. But, the anime has yet to reach awesome just yet.

So... When I first read this from hyuugalegacy's edit of this a year or two back, I laughed. Firstly because it had a girl with a sword and I like girls with swords. Secondly because the girl had ridiculous boobs. Thirdly because the author set up such a stupid scenario to have the girl do crazy things. And because of all these things, I like the manga.
Will I continue trying to badly translate this manga? Maybe, maybe not.
What I do want is for c_k to get the rest of the raws so I can see what happens in the end. I'm looking at you c_k!

And that's it for the public raws.
With this, I guess I have to drop this project since no more raws seem to be available. Sad though since there only seem to be like 5 more so more chapters left till the end. This manga officially either ended on may 2010, or was dropped by shounen ace on may 2010... One of the two...
Okay! That's that.
I'm also trying to get the other chapters though the editing phase but you know... lack of decent people blah blah blah. And decent for this kind of manga is very very low too...

Raw ends in the next chapter. I'm not going to bother myself in trying to find the continuing chapters. If no raws of chapter 10+ somehow drop into my lap, consider this manga dropped or something by me.

Anyways, school final tests are always fun... It's summer break for me now, which mean I will probably go hunting for a random manga to translate instead of this considering my above statement. Well, that is if ikcud(from kono-basho) doesn't restart a very delayed/on hold project that I was suppose to do. But chances of that is slim. I think...

The following translation involves an implicit sex scene translation. Please do not read if you feel such a scene would mentally scar you.


Okay! Now that that is there... Remember, I warned you, let's go on with my normal ramblings.
I'm really busy with school. I noticed the raws for most if not all the shounen ace titles have stopped appearing, which is bad since this is a shounen ace title, and truthfully, I do not care enough about this manga to bother try to search for other means for the raw or actually buy it myself....

This is more or less a first draft. I didn't really go too much into nuisances and etc etc.
