Make Use of What You Have!

Here are the last two one-shots Nariyuki Hazumi did for Josou Shounen (at least up through volume 15). The first one is Josou Yamemasu from v14 Watermelon Group. Ren has a stalker who discovers one day that Ren enjoys cross-dressing. Luckily for his stalker, Ren has decided to stop cross-dressing, something his stalker wants to help him with.

The second one is Decoration from v15 Ribbon Group. Tsugutaka Masato has to suddenly take over as the manager of his grandma's popular pastry shop alongside the pastry chef, Ichirin Kabaki. Tsugutaka's grandma leaves with him a certain outfit to overcome any problems.

That Which Brings Us Together

It had a good run, but this is the seventh and final chapter of Kenjutsu Komachi. A volume contained all the chapters will be released in August, and we'll be releasing any bonus content from the volume later this year. Although with the current count at over 210 pages for all 7 chapters, there might not be very much room left for bonus content beyond a page or two, but we'll see. Hope you all enjoyed this little series, and we'll be looking out for any new manga by Ayumi Komura in the future (as well as finishing up Usolily later this year, of course).

Girl Power Comes from Within!

As we mentioned recently, this is chapter 1 of the Febri edition of Himegoto. There's no difference with the Comic Rex version other than that it is serialized in a bimonthly magazine. This chapter is also pretty short, probably because the Rex chapter this month will be about twice as long. That chapter should be out sometime next week when the magazine arrives.

You Know You Like It!

Japan may be out of the World Cup, but at least two more Josou Shounen one-shots are done. The first is Oto Kon by Nariyuki Hazumi from v13 Plum Group. Ayato is short and unpopular, but he has one thing most others his age don't: a fiance. However, it turns out his fiance is Minase Kiryuu, a popular guy at his school who has started cross-dressing for him.

The second is Josou Kyouiku! by Kamaboko Red from v12 Banana Group. Sakuraba goes to a school with a dormitory, and one morning wakes up to discover he's apparently turned into a girl. Kamaboko Red has been a frequent contributor to the trap genre over the past couple of years, and the term appears to have been embraced by at least one group of doujin circles in Japan who have formed the Trap Club for the upcoming Comitia 109 convention in August. Not surprisingly, Kamaboko Red drew the illustrations on the website and is listed on the circle list as a collaborator.

Go for the Goal!

Here are two Josou Shounen one-shots by Nariyuki Hazumi, the author of Doppel! and Okaken!! that we released way back in 2011 shortly after we started doing the Josou Shounen series. The two from today were the first two Hazumi did for the series, with another three yet to come.

The first is Ganbare! Danshi Daihyou from v05 Red Group. Shuuto wanted to play soccer in high school, but he ends up as the manager of the girl's soccer team when he discovers his new school doesn't have a boy's soccer team. When no one's looking, he puts on one of the team uniforms. What better time to read a one-shot about soccer than during the World Cup? Also, to the Anonymous who mentioned this one-shot last time, are you psychic or something? We were already working on it when you posted that comment.

The second is Ano Ko no Risou from v04 Blue Group. Keito has a crush on Miharu, a regular customer of his hairdresser older sister. Keito wants to change his image to better suit Miharu's tastes, something his sister is more than happy to help him with.

And regarding the news about Himegoto, another serialization has begun in Ichijinsha's Febri magazine as of two days ago. We are going to be working on it from the magazine, so we'll be doing it at the start of July, along with the Comic Rex version which will still be ongoing. The only difference with the Febri version is that it's a bimonthly, so every other month there will be an extra Himegoto chapter.

In other news, volume 6 of Bokura no Hentai will actually be released in August (instead of July, which we had thought), so it'll be a while before we get a chance to work on it. Kuragehime v14 will still hopefully be coming out in September.

Be Honest with Yourself!

Here comes a couple Josou Shounen one-shots published 10 volumes apart. The first, from v11 Grape Group, is Muteikou Heroine by Shuusai Rikudou, the author of two previous Josou Shounen one-shots: Henai! and Nayameru Otoko no Ko. Muteikou Heroine is about Amane Nakatatsu, a first-year in junior high who enjoys cross-dressing. Amane is constantly approached by the intimidating Kyouya Samejima from another class, leading to them to fight on the school roof.

The second one-shot is Naisho no Omajinai by Touko Mizuki from v01 White Group, and this is one of the shorter ones. Tsukasa is constantly forced by his five-year-older cousin Momoka to dress as a girl. Disgrunted, Tsukasa wants Momoka to see him as a boy.

Be Sure to Tip Your Waitress!

Today we have one of the longer one-shots from Josou Shounen, The Remedy (I Won't Worry) by Kabocha from v02 Peach Group. Hanzou accidentally damages his sister's teddy bear, much to her rage. To pay her back, she forces him to work as a waitress at a local cafe led by her friend, the cafe's manager. It would have been nice if this author did another one-shot in the series, but alas, this was their only contribution. Although their comment on the last page probably had something to do with that. Anyway, enjoy!

Life is but a Game...with Cross-dressing!

After almost exactly an 11 month-long hiatus, we're finally getting back to working on some of the Josou Shounen one-shots, and not a moment too soon, because the first Josou Shounen volume to be released in a year and a half is about to come out at the end of this month, Princess Strawberry Group (Hime Ichigo-gumi). But for now, there are still many more one-shots left in the 15 Josou Shounen volumes we've been working on over the past 3 years (yeah, it's been that long already).

The first is Sora o Kakeru Josou Danshi by Maitake from v06, Cherry Blossom Group. Kakeru Momoyama has been forced to cross-dress from a young age by his parents. Now attending an all-girl high school, he is also going out with Yuuki, a popular girl from another school. The second is Twin's Game by Wataru Murayama from v03, Princess Group. Twin brother and sister Akira and Meika often enjoy switching places. This time, they switch at school with unforeseen consequences. This one is short, but sweet.

Cross-dressing is Meant to be Shared!

Whoever said Friday the 13th was unlucky? It may have only been a week ago that we started working on Oto Koi, but now it comes to an end with the ninth and final one-shot, Yakusoku (Promise). The story is about Yukinari and his childhood friend Chitose whose body is weak. Before Chitose moves away to have an operation, Yukinari makes a special promise to Chitose. The end of the volume also contains a small amount of bonus content. We had a lot of fun scanlating this volume, and we would be very interested in doing more of Tomokichi's work in the future if the opportunity arises.

Cross-dressing is Always an Option!

The seventh and eighth one-shots from Oto Koi are done, leaving one more left in the volume. The first one is Tomodachi datta no ni! (But We Were Friends!), which is about Tomoki's two friends Youichi and Keisuke who plot to make Tomoki cross-dress. The second one is Akujo (Vixen), which has Shinya living a happy life with his cute girlfriend Kanako, but things get complicated when Kanako's classmate Maki shows up.

Cross-dressing is Justice!

And now for the fifth and sixth one-shots from Oto Koi, meaning we're already halfway through the volume. The first is Kawaiitte Iwanaide! (Don't Call Me Cute!), which is about Takeshi and his cross-dressing childhood friend Aki; the two are also next door neighbors. The second is Boku o Ki ni Shite (Pay Attention To Me), which is about Yamato getting an unexpected visit from someone who goes to his school.

Cross-dressing Will Set You Free!

Here are the next two one-shots from Oto Koi. The first is Kare Dake no Kanojo (A Girlfriend Just for Him), and it deals with Misaki, who's coerced by his friend to cross-dress and go on a date with said friend's younger brother. The second is Okashina Shikaeshi (A Strange Revenge), which has Kobayashi cross-dressing to partake in a girls-only cake buffet. Obviously, there's much more to both of them than those short blurbs, so please read them and enjoy.

Regarding the Trap Comic Anthology series by Million (which these one-shots were originally published in), there are currently no plans to do them at this time. Unlike Josou Shounen, that series only seems to contain one-off one-shots that had no continuations or sequels, whereas Josou Shounen had numerous examples of this, like Zenryoku Otome and Josou Debut. Plus, we're not even done with the Josou Shounen series, and with it starting up again (or at least getting a 16th volume this month, with hopefully more to come), we'll be doing more from that series in the near future. There are other series we're looking at doing in the future, too. So it really comes down to priorities.

Cross-dressing is Half the Battle!

Today, we are very happy to present the start of a project that's been on our to-do list for a while. Earlier this year, we came into possession of the raws for Tomekichi's trap anthology Oto Koi, which brings together various one-shots that Tomekichi created for a series of trap anthologies published by Million (the same as Oto Nyan) which are basically Million's version of the Josou Shounen anthologies published by Ichijinsha. Nine volumes were published: Forced, Impish, Embarrassment, Innocent, Abyss, Devilish, First Love, Absolute Obedience, and Devoted Angel. There was also an additional Older Girl and Trap anthology. Anyway, the raws for Oto Koi were provided (and purchased) by sage, so much thanks goes out to allowing us the chance to work on such a nice collection of stories, which we hope you will also enjoy.

The first two stories from Oto Koi are Kanojo no Furi (Pretend Girlfriend) and Tsutaerarenai (I Can't Tell You). Since each of the stories are so short, there's little in the way of a summary that can be written without basically giving away the whole story, but here are a couple details. In Kanojo no Furi, it follows Yuzuru Tanaka, a narcissist who loves to cross-dress and admire himself in the mirror. In Tsutaerarenai, Nacchan cross-dresses as a penalty for losing a game he played with a couple of his friends. All of the stories in Oto Koi deal with love, so there are very strong BL themes, and they're very cute.

This is also a very special occasion, as this is officially our 500th post on the blog! Thanks for all the support from our readers over the years, and we hope you'll stick around for more cross-dressing fun. And speaking of fun, Ichijinsha is goes to publish another Josou Shounen volume! Yes, that's right, more Josou Shounen awesomeness is on the way with the series' 16th volume being published later this month, and we hope there's more to come on the horizon.

Cross-dressing Maids to the Rescue!

After a two-week break, we're back with a bang with not one, but two chapters of Himegoto, and even with some color pages! So, these are chapters 9 and 10 from the latest Comic Rex issue, and next issue Himegoto is finally going to be on the cover. There's only about a month until the anime premieres, and although it looks like it's going to be one of those 5-minute episode shows, it should still be a fun way to spend 5 minutes a week.
