What I Would Do for You!


Today, we are happy to celebrate not only the release of chapter 87 of Usotsuki Lily, but this is also our 100th individual release of the manga! In addition to 87 main chapters, there have been 9 individual releases of bonus content, plus the 4 chapters included in volume 0.

Thank you to all the readers who have stuck with this manga up until now and will hopefully continue to its ending later this year. We've noticed, especially more recently, that as time has gone on, Usolily has become the sort of manga where either you love it or you hate it. Some can't handle the repetitive plot devices (various uses of love triangles, amnesia, and the time loops) or the focus away from the main couple, sometimes for a large number of chapters (the Taiyou/Kanae/Keiko arc, the Naota/Reina/Kage arc), but we feel that those things are what make this manga unique and worth working on. Usolily is very much a character driven kind of story where you read it for the characters, not for the plot, of which there is very little to no progression. So, take it for what you will as we move ever closer to the end.

In other news, there have been some rumors as of last month that Kuragehime is getting a live-action movie adaptation. If so, there should be an official announcement sometime later this year, probably when volume 14 comes out in September (assuming it doesn't come out earlier for some reason).

  1. Wow! Thanks so much! I can't believe it's been 100 chapters. That's amazing. Also, the rumors about Kuragehime are very interesting. I wonder how well a live-action adaptation would work.

  2. Thank you for the chapter!

    I agree almost completely with your love it/hate it analysis. I love this manga so much! But I completely understand how some people would get bored or start hating it.

    I say I love it, but I'm not a fan of the amnesia arcs, so I'm glad it's over...

  3. Congratulations Hachimitsu Scans! You've done a great job on a great manga.

    "[...] but we feel that those things are what make this manga unique and worth working on" - I couldn't agree with this more.

    I'll be cheering you on right until the very end!
