I'm at home, I don't know if I'm happy or not. At last I have normal computer to draw on, but my fiance is again 350 km away :(. Tomorrow first hard day in work after my operation... Maybe I will manage sketch a little while break.


Oh, Meopat, you were in Japan and you brought  Nezushi doujinshi *_*, you are lucky, I bet if I saw any doujin from NO.6 I would run around and throw my money like crazy XD, specially if it would be "Blue House" series.

If you would ever want to translate them I would gladly help with graphic edit.


Ahiku, you saw a mini Nezumi? It must be cute :3 if he walked with little Shion it would be crazy XD like reincarnation.

@kare_reiko
Meo is still in Japan. :D I think it's not possible to translate the doujins, since we'd need the permission of the artist and I don't think they would like that.

Yeah, too bad Shion was not there as well. :3

Yaay, I finally found a foldable bike. X'D (God, it was really hard to find a shop which sells them. o_o° and after I visited several bike shops I found one with a lot of second hand bikes.)
It's horribly ugly and old, older than me... but also super nostalgic (a GDR model, GDR = German Democratic Republic, former East Germany) ...and I really hope they won't steal it, because they steal so many bikes here. <_< Even ugly ones...
I can get it in two days, the dude in that shop needs some time to overhaul it.
Looks a bit like this one: http://bärenrad.de/wp-content/uploads/mifa-klapprad.jpeg
But I'll get a green one. At least I hope that guy will prepare the green one. X'D

@Ahiku my first day back at school ... could've been worse I guess. They put me in the wrong history class and gave me psych 2 when I haven't taken psych 1 yet, but my teachers seem alright at least.

To bad, I would love to edit some manga/doujinshi, I liked to do that when I was cleaning and editing scans for doujinshi on some old scanlation group looong time ago.

In the end I didn't draw today much, It's hard to draw gay kissing when random people walk around you XD. I done only two, not perv, panels.

@Ghosty: I followed your example and took a walk when the typhoon came too. XD I’m a huge fan of storms. <3

(and school also starts for me tomorrow too… good job, summer vacation. T_T *cues KH theme* )

and Oh no! I’m sorry they messed up your schedule. :C I hope they’ll fix it for you soon?



@Reiko: ACK, I hope you’re feeling better after your operation! <3 *gives you blankets and hot chocolate*

and ohhhh, what’s this about the Blue House series? :D

and yeah. .__. I mean, I’d love to buy all the doujins I can find and scan them and translate them, but I’d rather respect the artists. XD; (a lot of them say: Don’t reprint or share! on the back)

Oh, Thank you Meopat!

I'm better now, I could even say I'm fully operational now ^^. Wound from operation healing really good, yesterday I gone to "work" (well at the end of work when we were packing everything, and it's always heavy, I used too much force and operation place hurt me like hell, but beside that I'm already alright.)

About blue home it's series Nezushi doujin that autor called I think on his blog, they are those doujinshi, somehow I just love it's art style:

http://www.pixiv.net/member_illust.php?mode=medium&illust_id=40433206

I found Wonderwall scans but translation is in arabish langue, to bad, japanesse would be better  for me... Anyway I didn't find anyplace to buy it, all books are sold :(.
I wish autors could always make possibility of boy their works in digital copy, specially when printed copies aren't available anymore. It would be beautiful. No problems with paying, no sending costs, autors would be able to earn more and more people could buy their doujinshi and enjoy them...

Still I think scans aren't so bad. I always like to check out title before I buy printed book, if I like story then I'm buying it. Bad thing start if you only read scans and don't buy official copy later.

(looking over her manga collection) I rather don't want to think how much money I spend on my mangas past last 11 years XD.

Ah yeah, I also do it like that... when I find a new manga that could be interesting, I check out if there are scanlations. If I like it, I go and buy the manga later.

I bought a lot of manga during the last years, but at the moment I just complete a couple of series, like No. 6 and don't buy that much anymore... unless the manga are really special. Bust most of the yaoi and BL series are just unoriginal and I really started to dislike that typical seme/uke cliché. That stuff was good when I was younger, but now I really need a good story, good characters... good art style. XD
And manga like that are super rare. (And No. 6 is such a gem... but well, unfortunately it's already finished. Even the German translation...just 3 volumes left.)

I was wondering how far in publishing NO.6 manga are Germany. We had so many delays that only one volume was published on time. Vol4 just got released few weeks ago. Now in middle of September Vol5 should be out, (I will be surprised if there won't be any delays again)

Well as for myself I'm collecting and like many genres of manga, some shonens (Tsubasa Chronicle, Magi, Kenshin, Pandora hearts... few shoujos Dangeki Daisy, CCS... And others like Deadman Wonderland, Spice and Wolf, kingdom hearts... when I last count my list I had 300+ volumes XD. And there are many I would buy but english manga's are expensive to me.

I bought the 6th volume last week. :3 I wonder if we'll get the rest this year... but I guess they'll rather complete it in January or February next year. Too bad you have so many delays. o_o° I just know that it was super hard to get the second volume back than. No idea why, but it was nearly impossible. XD

Ah, I'm also collecting other genres, but my favorites are still boys love stories. :3 I also have a lot...I'd say at least 500, but I think it's way more. o_o I collected a big part of the Detective Conan manga... but I stopped it and they are in a big carton box now, together with a Conan puppet I made when I was still pretty young. :D
My favorites are Yotsuba! (still collecting...although I'm not sure if they still publish them... oO° I think we didn't get a new volume in years), Border (still collecting these), Finder (also still collecting), No. 6 of course... Noragami is also great...Gravitation...I really loved that when I was younger. And loooots of BL and other manga. A lot of them are not very good, but I guess I liked them when I was younger. ^^°
But I also have some completed series which I still really like, for example Death Note, Summer wars, A lollypop or a bullet (god, this is just sooo, sooo, sooooo good!), Border (really good ^^) and for example "pieces", that one is really interesting. o.o Ah, and one of my favorites is Switch Girl. XDDDD God, this series is sooo stupid and funny and also horrible, I love it. X'D
Ah, I also liked Clamp a lot when I was younger. o.o

The same publisher that release NO.6 will publish Noragami too. They say that first volume will be this month... We will see... NO.6 had really bad luck for now. Anyway I will probably buy Noragami for sure but this time I didn't make preorder, NO.6 situation already got me against preorders. 

I liked Clamp a lot too, I still have more of their titles than others artists. Right now It's Card Captor Sakura, Chobits, Tsubasa R Chronicle, Kobato, Wish... I was thinking about buying Clover 4 volumes in 1 ver but it's always about money. Oh, and there are 2 random volumes of RG Veda in japanese somewhere in my home..'
Still about Clamp, maybe it's only I who think this way but I think they don't have ideas anymore. they try to still push forward XXXholic and Tsubasa since Kobato didn't worked and 7 Gate is strange... I think that they remake now Legal Drug but somehow it was my latest liked work of them.

I have Saiyuki too, still after years I think it's more bromance than shounen ai, but well, we have only first 9 volumes here, gaiden and rest will never make it here... To bad I would like to know how it will end.


ASide I had to throw my frustration somewhere. My drawing sucked today. I tried to fix some panels I drawed before and I'm still very, very unhappy with them. Damn. I'm not sure how draw them anymore. I'm trying figure out how to draw boys and more importantly older boys and everything fall apart... after I finish this doujin I need to draw down how I want them to look each age, else I will mess up next doujin too...
(Saw next not looking good panels) T_T I think I need a break from it...

I really like collecting manga, but as a high schooler with no job I can only get them by mooching money off my grandmother or going to the goodwill bookstore. For a poor highschooler though I have a fair amount. The only completed set I have that's more than like 2 volumes is No. 6, but I like to collect a lot more of different series so I have all kinds of genres. I do a lot of "buy only the first of 5000 different series". I actually have a ton of Naruto, even though I'm not a naruto fan at all? don't ask why but I own probably 40 volumes of the manga.

I try to keep away from buying BL since most of the money comes from my parents or grandmother and I'd feel really bad using their money to buy shounen-ai since I'm pretty sure they look at me as the innocent pure one of my sisters (though my dad keeps making fun of me for watching "baseball yaoi" because he always comes home at 1 am to me watching Big Windup).

Totally off topic from what we're talking about but I wanted to say something before I forgot. I'm going to Kumoricon! If anyone else here is going, let me know so I can say hi! I'm 99.9% sure no one reading this thread is even in that part of the world, but I'd rather say something than miss an opportunity!

@Weisel: AHHH I miss conventions. T_T I saw pictures of your Shion cosplay on tumblr too. It looked really good!! XD but.. was that Kirito's sword that you were holding? X3

@Reiko: OH! I'll keep an eye out for this artist next time I'm near Tokyo then! (They generally have more stuff available. :3)
I think the reason why doujin artists don't sell it digitally is because it might crossfire with some copyright infringement online or a buyer could haphazardly share all the pages of the doujin for free without purchase. (I mean, it happens already even when the doujins AREN'T available online. ... some people still go out of their way to scan OTHER people's work without permission.. >>;; even if you paid 500yen for the booklet, it's not fair to the artist, right? T_T)
also. I hate having an art block too. T__T I hope you can recover from it soon. I'm excited to see what your next doujin would look like. :3


ahhhhh... D: I hope those translated editions of No.6 can be released without delay. ;_;
recently, I've been stalking the internet for the limited editions of the No.6 manga and it has NOT been a good idea. my bank account is very unhappy with me.
Ghosty... it's so nice that you're considerate of your family.. XD please don't turn into an irresponsible adult who can't decide between buying manga/doujins or buying dinner. >>;;

@meopat yes that is exactly what the sword is! I went to a cosplay picnic and gave a guy there my extra SnK patch for free so he let me pose with his awesome sword. That this was HEAVY (but thankfully not sharp, I would have hurt myself somehow). I was laughing the whole time because there are absolutely no swords in the entirety of No.6, but I chose to take photos as Shion with a sword anyway. I mean, why not, right?
