Ike! Danshi Koukou Engekibu 1

Okay, I'll be editing the status for this one, since I want to concentrate on our other projects (though I've almost caught up with most of them). Now, this is open for scanlation. I have raws with me, and this comes out every Thursday in Japan, so I'll be able to update this weekly. If you have questions about this series/translation, PM me or go to my MH thread. Here's the movie trailer, BTW.
