Honey Goes Well with Coffee and Tea!

For our second post today, here's chapter 3 of Gisou Honey Trap as we reach halfway through the first volume.

Edit: Fixed a typo on the title page.

Sensei! Nakamura-kun!

Chapter 2 of Sensei Anone is finished, and was posted by Deus Ex Scans some hours ago, but if you missed it, here it is.

In the Land of Cousins and Honey!

Today, we are proud to present a brand new series we've wanted to do for a while: Gisou Honey Trap by Vanilla Yoshizawa. And to top it off, the first two chapters are being released at the same time. The above image was posted by the author on Pixiv around the time the first volume was released.

In the story, Keiichirou Mishima is a 15-year-old guy living with his mom until she suddenly decides to fly to Paris to be with Keiichirou's dad. His mom arranges with his uncle Shirasaki to let him stay at his mansion with his two cousins Marie and Tomari, who he met many years before when he stayed with them for a short while. However, Keiichirou has forgotten nearly everything about back then, including why his cousins apparently now hate him. The title, Gisou Honey Trap, should give you a clue as to why it caught our eye.

Putting on a Show Just for You!

Yet another one of our joint projects with Deus Ex Scans, here's chapter 1 of Sensei Anone by Ei Tachibana. The first chapter was released by Wow!scans some two years ago and then dropped the series, so we decided to help Deus to revive the series by providing translation and some quality checking. So look forward to more.

Oh Brotherly Love!

Thanks in part to our friends over at Deus Ex Scans, here we have the last two one-shots from the latest issue of Waai Mahalo, and they're both pretty short. The first is Ruru Chouchou by Nami Nishiuri. Set in feudal Japan, Sorano is often mistaken for a girl, and he is saved one day by Iori from some pushy guys; the two hang out together the following day.

The second is Ani Love by Kamaboko Red, the same author as Mise Koi! from the last issue of Waai. A trap with a huge brother complex tries to seduce his older brother.

I'm not sure when the next issue of Mahalo will be out, but if it's gone back to a quarterly release, volume 4 should be out near the end of March.

You Are the Flame to my Heart!

Here's the bonus content from the end of Usotsuki Lily volume 9, which contains a short one-shot and then a lot of other stuff. Thus concludes our 10th completed volume of Usotsuki Lily, and only a few days before volume 10 comes out too. But we won't have it until next month, so Usolily will be on hiatus until at least late February. That should also be around the time we restart Bokura no Hentai and when the next volume of Waai comes out. The next volume of Kuragehime will probably be out in March.

Also, as mentioned at the end of the volume, Ayumi Komura recently started a 4-koma spin-off/alternate story of Usolily last October called Boy's Lily, which has En as a normal guy dating Hinata who always dresses as a guy. Thing is, it's being serialized in a bimonthly magazine, so chances are we won't be scanlating it until sometime in 2014 at the earliest when the first volume comes out. So I guess it's something to look forward to someday. By then, Usolily should be around volume 15, and who knows, maybe even an anime will at least be announced too. Reportedly, there are over 1.6 million copies of Usolily volumes in circulation, so it's not for lack of popularity.

Traps and Sports Go Hand-in-Hand!

Here are two more one-shots from Waai Mahalo in our collaboration with Deus Ex Scans. The first is Kiratto! Yell (Sparkle! Yell) by Airi Mori, the same author as Omaera Minna Damasareteiru. Yuuto enters his all-boy junior-high with the hope of joining a manly cheering squad, but is surprised to find all the boys in the club dressed as girls.

The second is Tadashii Ace no Kouryakuhou? (The Proper Method to Capture an Ace?) by Mitohi Matsumoto. Hiroto Fujiki is the ace on his high school baseball team. He takes an interest in one of his groupies, only to find out that "she" is not who "she" appears to be. This one has a strong BL theme.

A Steamy Time in the Hot Spring!

Here's chapter 58 of Usotsuki Lily, the last of the main chapters from the volume. The bonus content to follow from the end of the volume is rather labor intensive, so it'll be released sometime next week, right before volume 10 gets released, but we'll give an update on that later.

A Pair of 17-Year-Old Virgins!

Today we have chapter 57 of Usotsuki Lily, and January 15 just happens to be Ayumi Komura's birthday, as well as Hinata's and En's! So we're glad that we could celebrate it with you with a new, rather unique chapter of this series. Also, there's one more main chapter left in the volume, and then some bonus content.

Don't Drink the Kool-Aid

The first of five one-shots from this issue of Mahalo, this is Onii-chan Complex by Ayune Araragi, the author of the previously released Hatsukoi Lovers one-shot, and as the title page says, this is the second in the yandere trap series after that one. In it, Haruki's younger brother Natsuki dresses like a girl and always clings to him. This is starting to cause problems after Haruki gets into high school, so he tries to think of a way to work things out with Natsuki. Half the work goes to Deus Ex Scans.

Memoirs of an Apprentice Geisha

After a little delay, here's chapter 56 of Usotsuki Lily.

On a semi-related note, the series recently got licensed in Germany by Tokyopop under the title Girls Love Twist. Really good choice on that title Germany. It's also been licensed for a while in France and Italy. Perhaps it's only a matter of time until it gets licensed in English.

Flowers are Very Versatile!

Here we are with Porte Tricolore chapter 3, the last of the ongoing chapters from this issue for our part, in collaboration with Deus Ex Scans. That means no Chuu x2 Trap this issue, so maybe next issue. The rest of the issue is a bunch of one-shots we'll be doing over the next couple weeks.

From Kyoto with Love!

About halfway through the volume already, here's chapter 55 of Usotsuki Lily.

It's Just Bananas and Cream!

Here are two more from the ongoing Mahalo series: Boku wa Senpai ni Josou o Shiirareteimasu. ch. 3 and Hikaru to Hikari ch. 2 in collaboration with Deus Ex Scans.

One thing regarding Hikaru to Hikari. In the first chapter, it seemed at the time that Aya was Hikaru's older sister, since he repeatedly calls her "Onee-chan", and there was no indication of the contrary. However, this chapter revealed that Aya is in fact his next door neighbor. So sorry for the confusion.

Also, so as to rectify a bit of our less than stellar past, we decided to clean pg. 11 of chapter 3 of Kuragehime so that it now looks like this:

We updated the download links for the chapter and the volume on the Kuragehime page as well. To say this is long overdue is an understatement since we should have done it at the time we did the chapter over 2 years ago. But we've improved in leaps and bounds since those early days and we hope our more recent releases reflect that for the most part.

A Little of This and That

Almost exactly 48 hours later, here's chapter 54 of Usotsuki Lily. Enjoy.

You're All I Ever Need!

First of all, we hope you had a happy new year and welcomed in 2013 without any problems. For our first release of the year, and after almost a three month hiatus, Usotsuki Lily is back with chapter 53 at the start of volume 9. Usotsuki Lily readers may have noticed that since volume 8, Shueisha has been putting out volumes quicker; there's a 3 month wait between volumes, instead of the previous 4 month wait, and just so you know, volume 10 is going to come out at the end of this month. So a lot more Usotsuki Lily is on the way.
