I've managed to cook up a doujinshi for winter Comiket...! (。ω。) It's a book featuring the chairwoman from [Gundam Build Fighters]. I'm using the web catalogue this time, so please have a look at it there!

I don't have a sample magazine, but [Dengeki] Maou has been released so I'll just announce it. Astarotte no Omocha! Blu-Ray Box is going on sale! ヽ('ω')ノ It will go on sale 19 March. I couldn't find an announcement page, so I'll just leave the amazon link here: amazon.co.jp/dp/B00HIT5ZHO

The other day I finished the bonus illustrations that come with the tankoubon in the bookstores. My vacation was supposed to start for real after that.... but the first thing I did after getting freed from the drawing work was to forget to eat for 24 hours and keep sketching... It really is my greatest hobby, isn't it? (。ω。)

And I just got appointed to do the BD box illustrations. Heh heh... I've been wanting to draw them myself...!

It's rather late for this, but the book released this winter [comiket] and the one from the previous summer [comiket] have gone on consignment sale at [Tora no Ana]... is what I need to announce.

I'll mostly be using it to get around town so I intend to get a hybrid bike under 10 kg.

While I was out I stocked up on beer for the first time in a while.

I'm laying the groundwork for my next work, but at present I don't have any deadlines to meet at all. Currently an unemployee. I'll just keep preparing until it's finalized and a deadline is set, and then I shall make my return as a mangaka...!

*Unemployee: 無職 - mushoku, contorted into ムショッカー, mushoker?

"I'm going on break for half a year after finishing this!" is what I thought about a year ago, but I've already started my preparations.

For now I would like to make my working environment more systematic. And hire some assistants!

During volume 5, I told my supervisor that "I'd like to do this, this, and that, and end it by volume 8", but I couldn't help but draw more so it became 9 volumes. I also started this as a story that would end in 2-3 volumes, so it feels like it's been a long-drawn battle to extend it. ('ω')
- Monday, January 3 2014

Actually, I still have a whole lot of ideas for the side-stories, but it feels like if I did everything there would be no end to it so I gave up. I might draw these side-stories in the future somewhere.

Hen Zemi chapter 5

After like a year of trying to find a translator(though admittedly I wasn't looking very hard...) found someone to work on it with me. Life is good.

Rotte no Omocha: final chapter

Rotte no Omocha is coming to an end soon. The final chapter is in next month's issue of Maou. The next tank will also be the final one, and is slated to go on sale January next year.
(source: author's twitter, 17 hours ago)

The relevant tweets:
  • Yes, I'm drawing the final chapter right now! RT: Is it true that the next volume of Rotte no Omocha is going to be the last?
  • Oh, right. I have an announcement to make before that. Baka-Test comes to a close with its 12th volume, which goes on sale the end of this month!
    http://t.co/KW7kBouW87 
  • The first volume was in Jan 2007, so it's been about 7 years, huh. These 7 years I've been blindly groping my way through the designs, so I get a shock when I see the drawings from when I was just starting out.
  • And Rotte no Omocha! currently being serialized in Maou will also have its chapter in next month's volume. The final volume of the Tank is slated to go on sale January next year.
  • The first chapter was published in June or July I think, in the same year as the first volume of Baka-Test.  I've somehow managed to make it for 6 and a half years for this series too.
  • Ooh, thank you everyone for your words of appreciation.(つω;)It makes it all worth it.
  • When I first heard about Baka-Test, it had already been green-lit for debut. I was quite uneasy about having to work on both series at the same time, but I just thought "well I don't think both series will go on for long. Besides, my own series will probably end in about 2 years to say the least of it." and got started on them. To think that that I would have been able to come this far is just...!
  • Thank you very much for the great number of replies about the end of Rotte and Baka-Test! I'm so, so happy... I should have informed the readers earlier.

Oniichan Control 22

Sorry about the wait.
http://www.mediafire.com/download/vpr4uvfd262m6pw/Onii-chan_Control_22(v2).zip


(Like chapter 21, this was translated from Chinese due to the lack of raws. Chapters 24-25 are Japanese-English translations as usual. - ^rabite)
>editing my posts
jerk. also, v2 up'd because I forgot to ask ^rabite to proof it before I posted it and there were a few errors.

Onii-chan Control 21


Done from some Chinese scans we found, so I can only take responsibility for the terrible typesetting, everything else is on them, and all their credits are on front page, top right. So feel free to contact them with any germane complaints.

22 in a few days hopefully, depending on laziness.

Hi no Tori soon too possibly hopefully.

Cover page of Comic High issue #100 that goes on sale today, stitched together in ms paint. Onii-chan Control might still be a once-every-two-month serialization since it wasn't in issue #99.

14/9/13 edit: Yup, once every two months.

Hi no Tori

Book 1 of this is out of print and expensive, so no one's bothered to scan it, but a guy did transcribe his copy of it, and I've been working on getting it typesetted (on that note, the bubbles in here are a little awkward, so some of it looks pretty weird. Sorry about that...) V1 (first half of this story)is done and download link is below, and second part is in the works. The translation was transcribed from the Viz publication, and they changed a few things (simplifying names, Sarutahaiko to Saruta for example, and just generally "dumbing it down"). So yeah, not exactly the best translation, but it's the only one...

NOTE: this is only the first half of the first story, not sure how reading the next four volumes without reading the second half would go, so I dunno... Anyhow, links:

No ETA on the second half because I'm busy (lazy).

Oh, and I almost certainly missed some typos/made a few myself, so sorry about that, and if you care to point them out I'll be more than happy to get them fixed.

Also, for anyone who cares, it's looking like we're not getting raws for Onii-chan Control until the tank comes out in January, so...yeah...

Waiting for raws

Hi, this is the translator for Onii-chan Control.

Comic Sumomo's latest volume (#16) that recently went on sale turned out to be the final volume. It's also the magazine in which Onii-chan Control is published.

According to the notice, Onii-chan Control is going to be moved to Comic High, a monthly publication, starting from the June issue (on sale the 22nd of every month); the June issue goes on sale May 22nd.

Comic Sumomo, by the way, was published only once every two months.

Volume 16 of Comic Sumomo contains two chapters - #22 and #23. Volume 15 contains #21. The raws haven't appeared for any of these chapters. Volume 3 of the tank goes up to chapter #20 only. The worst case scenario is that we'll have to wait for the tank scans that may or may not come out early next year. Ohohoho.

(Edited for clarity. Edited again: 12th->22nd.)
