Ageha begs Q's creator to reveal the whereabouts of Oboro and Hiryuu. She confirms Oboro is alive, but is unable to clearly reveal his situation. Hiryuu, on the other hand, parts ways with Ageha's group, determined to fight by Tatsuo's side...!?<br /><br />02<br />-Hiryuu and Oboro...the both of them are my teammates. We survived this far together<br />-But since there's no way I can locate them at this point...<br /><br />03<br />-The only thing to do<br />-Is let them be<br /><br />-Yoshina...<br />-You say that even though it's eating you up inside to go find them right away...<br /><br />-We should be happy enough to at least know they're alive<br /><br />-...we can't keep this up any longer<br />-selfishly exposing everyone in &quot;Root&quot; to the outside dangers...<br />-Yoshina is painfully aware of that fact...as well as the hard truth that the two of us alone have next to no hope of finding those two...<br /><br />04<br />-We'll run back into those guys soon enough. For now, we'll have to act on our own<br />-Once Kabuto's back on his feet, we should think about continuing the game and going back to the present for a while.<br /><br />-You're right. Even if it's just the 3 of us,<br />-We have to go 10 years back...and stop Amagi Miroku!<br /><br />-Equally important, we need to inform Matsuri-sensei about all that we learned here<br />-Oh, yeah...!<br /><br />-Hey! While standing here this entire time, I've been kinda wondering<br />-is it okay for me to be hearing this conversation?<br /><br />05<br />-OH, SHIT!<br />-What, am I THAT invisible to you!? (Grr!!)<br /><br />-Forget EVERYTHING you heard here!<br />-Wipe those brain cells clean!!<br />-D-don't ask the impossible!!<br /><br />-...SHUT UP!<br /><br />-I'm sick of listening to your squabbling, roaches!<br />-I'm exhausted and need rest, so get the hell out<br /><br />-...so...you're letting this go...?<br />-Geez!

Looks like I woke up on the right side of bed today, huh?<br /><br />-You haven't seen anything yet!<br /><br />-What's with the long face?<br />-Frederica...<br /><br />-Just because you got separated from your friends is no reason to go around pouting, stupid!<br /><br />09<br />-Listen, compared to what WE went through on the Day of Rebirth, your pathetic little sob story is trivial! INFINITESIMAL!<br />-If there's still hope, then put on a better face! Got it!?<br /><br />-...r-right<br />-Thanks, Fu. For cheering me up<br /><br />-HUH!? WHO IS!!?

He'll detect my existence and uncover this base in a matter of no time<br /><br />-I think I finally understand why<br />-I get this feeling as I watch you...<br /><br />18<br />-It's because you're a lot alike...you and Miroku<br /><br />-You better treasure your sister, too<br /><br />-Fundamentally, all &quot;people&quot;...<br /><br />-DON'T GO!!!<br /><br />19<br />---want to make a connection with others<br /><br />-And by so doing,<br />-They stay connected to our world<br /><br />white: And with those puzzling words, Q's creator once again disappears into Psyren's wastelands...!!<br /><br />CALL.85/END<br />NEXT TIME: Ageha is left bewildered by the gamemaster's escape!

Sat, 05 Sep 2009 23:43:43 +0000 http://mangahelpers.com/t/shrimpy/releases/15871 http://mangahelpers.com/t/shrimpy/releases/15540 The barrage of posts was from a request for MK translations I worked on in my &quot;early years.&quot; Null has forfeited the project, and none of v3 has been scanlated. Of it, I only have 3 chapters there (14-16) so have at them.<br /><br />I believe there's only 2 volumes left, 3 and 4 (that have been published, anyway). There might be more of MK as side stories, the way the series has been sporadically published all these years.<br /><br />Liar Game v8 is completed, and I've got all the raws of mags well past v9 thanks to generous raw hunters (Null does not at the time of this post have v9 yet).<br /><br />My last &quot;project&quot; is running behind...you will know what it is in time. No, it's not anything new, and I haven't resumed anything, so don't get any strange ideas!

Stay!</strong><br /><br />Two major reasons:<br />a) Time. I just don't have it anymore. Did you know it takes me an average of 1 hour per chapter of psyren (~19 pages)? Longer series that are monthly, or things like one shots can easily span anywhere from 2-4 hours. However, just to read the chapter and not translate it takes me a fraction of the time. And this brings me to--<br /><br />b) My japanese. I've been doing this for a couple years now, and I've had a rude wake-up call. I dabbled in a bit of fansubbing as of late and I am ashamed to admit my ineptitude. I am still looking up things in a dictionary just about every other line. I can't read a newspaper, and watching the news is so very difficult. My original goal was to become fluent, and I feel I am no longer deriving much of any benefit from spending all this time writing english when it could be better spent studying japanese all-out. Furthermore, I do not have the advantage of other people here who live in japan. Self study is brutal, and it's time I step up my game.<br /><br /><strong>2) But you can't go, who's going to translate all this stuff?</strong><br /><br />There's plenty of new kids on the block. Some of them are shy, some of them lack confidence. But I feel I am leaving you in good hands. If Psyren translations start off choppy, please show them the support you showed me. Even I sucked in the very beginning.<br /><br /><strong>3) What about the stuff you did for NULL?</strong><br /><br />This is more or less my shameless plug--I'd like to encourage translators to volunteer to fill in the projects I'm leaving behind. Black god is one, magic kaito was kind of forgotten (but you can bring it back!), and LIAR GAME is quite possibly the one that will have the biggest reverberations. You will notice that I did not remove LG from my list of projects, and that's because it is still my goal to finish up to the most &quot;recent chapter available.&quot; So, 84 will pretty much be it unless another shows up soon. When I remove it from the list, then I will have quit completely. I have no plans to translate Roots of A. Pray that projectliargame/jewan returns, since that was his share, or try it out for yourself.<br /><br /><strong>4) Will you ever come back?</strong><br /><br />I feel bad enough about all the promises I'm breaking to quit to now make another promise I may also break. The fact is, I have no plans in the foreseeable future to return. Please make arrangements that will allow your favorite projects and groups to continue. If I do decide to come back I'll simply volunteer to chip in; it's win-win either way.<br /><br />In closing, I'd like to take this opportunity to thank the many people out there who supported me over the years...if I were to name everyone I know I'd forget somebody and I don't want to offend anyone. Certainly, we all owe it to the raw providers, scanlators, and people who maintain this site for all their hard work behind the scenes.<br /><br />It's been fun guys. I'll still be around...but as a leecher.<br />All the best.

I think I said last week it sounded like a ghoul, well, now i'm not so sure, especially with Kyle's last line. Sounds like it was meant to be a animal-monster, not undead. ops?<br /><br />2) Ageha's new attack is not explicitly named. However, my best guess is &quot;Melschee's Disc&quot;, for obvious reasons. The title for this chapter was &quot;En&quot;, meaning round/circle. My best guess, then, was to name it after the description of the attack.<br /><br />01<br />white: Volumes 1-6 selling strong! / Don't miss Iwashiro-sensei's tribute in Beelzebub Vol 1, entitled &quot;Amamiya: Hilda cosplay ed.&quot;!

Together with some of Elmore's children, they set off for Mukurojima, in Kyuushuu. They find their path cut off by two of Usui's subordinates, Taiga and Okugou. While they are busy fighting, Usui and Miyake slip into the underground facility. There, they discover a woman suspended in some sort of capsule. Could she be...!?<br /><br />02<br />-Hold still!!<br /><br />03<br />-Kakaka! Catch me if you can, little girl<br /><br />-Geez, Fuu! What're ya doing, launching that kind of attack?

People believed in him because they thought he was the fulfillment of St. Francis Xavier's 'prophecy' that there would be 'the Son of God' born in Shimabara and he supposedly did miracles. Shiro led the defence of Hara Castle and died when it fell. His head was displayed on a pike in Nagasaki for a very long time afterward as a warning to any other potential Christian rebels.<br /><br />His death poem was: &quot;Ima rōjō shiteiru mono wa, raise made tomo to naru.&quot; (&quot;Now, those who accompany me in being besieged in this castle, will be my friends unto the next world.&quot;)</q><br /><br />...sooo he's one of those historical figures people think might be reincarnated.

Unannounced, Nemesis Q materializes and delivers an SOS from its creator! Ageha and Amamiya, together with a few of the children from Elmore Wood, decide to head to Mukurojima, the location where Q's master supposedly is. It seems their enemy will be &quot;Usui&quot;...but who exactly is he...!?<br /><br />02<br />-The citizens of my empire...the empire I established after the Day of Rebirth!<br /><br />-It's Amakusa-sama!<br /><br />03<br />-Amakusa-sama!<br />-Amakusa-sama...please, guide us...<br />-Good day to you, Amakusa-sama<br /><br />-Amakusa-sama!
