The Good, the Bad, and the Beautiful!

After a short break from releases for the past 10 days or so, we're back with Mizutama Honey Boy chapter 19 at the start of volume 5. The volume was released in a regular and special edition featuring different covers, and the special edition (which we have) also comes with a 30-page booklet containing some bonus manga and illustrations that we will also be doing once this volume is complete.

We will also be receiving Shimanami Tasogare v02 later this week, so we'll be working on that when it arrives.

And in other news, we recently found out that Ataru Yamamoto has started a serialization of her Nisekoi Boyfriend manga in Be x Boy as of last month titled Nisekoi Boyfriend lovely, and it's a sequel to the original 2-chapter story we worked on a couple years ago, so we are super excited about working on more of it when its first volume arrives sometime early next year.

A New Lease on an Old Life!

In part to celebrate our 6-year anniversary, we are finally pleased to present the second project we've picked up this month. This is Shitei Bouryoku Shoujo Shiomi-chan (Designated Violent Girl Shiomi-chan) by Kazurou Inoue of Midori Days fame. The manga recently started serialization last May in Shounen Super Sunday (the chapters are also later posted online), so it shouldn't be too long before the first volume comes out in the next couple of months. The story is as follows:

Gen Shiomi, the 56-year-old boss of the Hitotsubashi mob syndicate, must go into hiding to protect his life from potential assassins. He opts to get plastic surgery, only to end up looking like a teenage girl, but he resolves to stay like this until his life is no longer in danger. However, he finds it hard to not be suspicious, but he is saved from being the target of police by a teenage boy named Tatsuya Umemiya. After helping Tatsuya out of some troubles of his own, Gen is forced to enroll into junior high school as "Shiomi Iwao", only to discover that one of his new classmates is Tatsuya.

So this series is great if you're looking for a ridiculous new series. As a side note, the title is a play on shitei boyryokudan, a term used to describe powerful yakuza groups. Also, Iwao comes from an alternative reading of Gen (巌).

Over the past 6 years, we've released over 1,000 chapters across dozens of series, we've had over 800 posts to the blog, and have had over 3.5 million hits to the blog. Not to mention that we've received over $1,300 dollars via donations over the years, which has been a huge help in the buying of almost all of our raws. Not bad for a group essentially started on a whim that's almost exclusively dedicated to gender bender manga.

Cross-dressing Opens the Door!

To start off October, we have a brand new series to introduce. It's Seito Kaichou desu ga Josou Hajimemashita (I May Be the Student Council President but I Started Cross-dressing) by Youichi. It's a 4-koma that recently started serialization on Yuruyon, which originally posts the pages on its Twitter account. Later, the pages are compiled into chapters on Pixiv Comic's website, which just posted the first chapter a couple of days ago. In addition, you can check out Youichi's pixiv account, where he published some bonus illustrations for the series. The story is as follows:

Jun Shiraishi has longed for years to be friends with another girl, something she tells a guy who tries to ask her out one day. Spurred on by his feelings for her, he grants her wish by cross-dressing and making friends with her as "Nai".

It's a cute series, though the chapters are very short. This is currently the only chapter on Pixiv Comic, and it will probably update near the end of every month.
