All That is Pleasing to the Eye!

After a lot of work, Eden no Otome volume 2 ends with chapters 12, 13 and 14. Also included is a short bonus chapter and a few other pages of bonus content at the end of the volume. The next volume will most likely come out before the end of the year, either in November or December.

In Her Image!

First off, sorry that there was a bit of a delay getting this out. But we should be back on a regular release schedule, although obviously that's dependent how quick our next release is. Anyway, here are Eden no Otome chapters 8 and 9 at the start of volume 2.

Next up, the start of Shiomi-chan v04.

Let There Be Light!

Eden no Otome volume 1 now comes to an end with chapters 5, 6 and 7, with a few pages of bonus content also included at the end of the volume. The next volume comes out in a few days, but we won't be getting to it until next month.

Also, in case you missed it, there was a mistake in chapter 4 that was later corrected in the previous post, so please exchange the files if you haven't already.

And we are also going to try switching our alternative download from Dropbox to Google Drive. This will have the added benefit of making the files available for much longer, if not indefinite, as opposed to the Dropbox links that were deleted every few weeks. The Mediafire links are always active though, as is our general Mega archive.

Edit: Typo in chapter 6 fixed and reuploaded. Replace with this.

Taste of the Fruit of the Tree of Life!

Eden no Otome chapters 3 and 4 are done, more than halfway through the first volume. Despite the copious amount of redraws required for this series, since the chapters are relatively short, it doesn't take that long to finish them.

Edit: There was a minor, but important, change to a couple of lines in chapter 4, page 13, which can be replaced with this.

The Lilies Are in Full Bloom!

To kick off May, we are happy to present the first two chapters of our newest project, Usoumi Watanabe's yuri manga Eden no Otome. Although the title could be translated as Maidens of Eden, the Otome in the title is written as 処女 (shojo), Japanese for virgin, and the series also has an alternative title in German, Die Jungfrau im Garten Eden, which is literally "The Virgin in the Garden of Eden". The story is as follows:

In the distant future, humanity is now only made up of women. Kohane Sumino has just enrolled into the prestigious Shirasakuya Academy that contains within it a secluded courtyard garden maintained by the Gardening Club. Legend has it that if two people pledge their love for each other underneath a pair of trees in that garden, they will be bound for eternity. Kohane seeks out the garden on her first day of school, where she meets Rekka Hanatsuka, the friendly self-proclaimed acting president of the Gardening Club. Although Kohane proves to be fairly popular early on, she soon learns that paradise is not without its thorns.

This is Watanabe's debut series that has been serialized on Comic Ruelle's website since February 2017, although the first volume was only just recently released at the end of last year. However, the second volume is already about to come out in just a couple of weeks, so this was a perfect opportunity for us to pick it up now. The author seems to have a strong love of flowers, as you can see from photos they've posted on their Twitter account, and this is reflected in the manga itself, with copious detailed drawings of flowers. So if you want, please check it out.

Up next, the start of Nettaigyo v02.
