Kletian & Linie's Translations

Kletian and Linie are back from the dead with Hellabunna's HSAS02 and PMW2. Initially, I wasn't able to edit my post. Apparently, bans on file hosts were apparently enforced during our hiatus, and I had links to banned sites.

Kamiri's latest, HSAS3, is next. It's a short one, so it shouldn't take another five months. After that might be one of Eroquis's older works.

Kletian, you and CannonDub, you are the best! Thank you so much for these doujins, H-SAS 02 and PMW2, great work!

So, HSAS03 is next? That doujin shows Kasumi with tentacles, right? I can't wait to see that one! xD

Now that I have read HSAS2 postscript i feel like utter garbage. It seems bill 156 will have more impact than what I expected it to have over doujinshi content and publishing. It's clear that Iruma Kamiri is against it so he asks us, his consumers, to stick with him til the end.

And here I am, distributing his doujinshi as if it were free. I mean, yep, I buy his stuff alright... but I might affecting his business by scanning and uploading his works; instead of supporting an author I like I feel like I'm helping those prudish politicians dig Kamiri's grave...

I'll buy his works as long as he keeps producing them, but it's quite disturbing to see that he might not be able to draw this kind of content anymore. This is the first time a postscript makes me sad... and also makes me feel guilty. Sometimes ignorance is bliss, uh?

Most of the people reading our redistribution probably wouldn't buy official copies, given that we're doing this for people who cannot read Japanese. I think owning physical copies is worth the price, myself. As for Bill 156, Kamiri wrote the postscript before the bill came into effect. There's no telling how strongly the bill will be enforced, especially after considering the opposition it has been receiving from major players, such as the Association of Japanese Animations.

HSAS03 is released. Hellabunna's XIGA2 and Eroquis's XES Fantasia are next. XES Fantasia is nearly done, so the wait shouldn't be as long as for HSAS03.

Managing the OP with all its doujinshi is getting kind of tedious. Maybe it's time to host a website or blog for this stuff.



Not at the moment. Linie and I are currently too busy to devote much time to these releases, unfortunately. Rei 5 is high on the to-do list, however, so sit tight.

Amazing! Thanks for the doujin and your great work!

Wow, I am *really*, *really* looking forward to XES Fantasia. In my opinion, it's the pick of the lot; I'd love to read it translated at long, long last. It's a pity Eroquis never did a follow-up, because I find the whole virtual world concept ridiculously hot.

What's the status on it?

We're currently waiting on Linie to finish editing the images. He has been busy with other things as of late, and if he is being as ambitious as his usual self, I cannot fault him for it. "Soon" is the only thing I can say about its release.

Cool. That's something to look forward to, then.

XIGA2 is released. I think this release has the most attractive editing so far. Linie did a great job with the word art. Have a look!

XIGA3 is next.

Sure, I'd love to. The problem is that those doujinshi are currently on a desktop whose video card is kaput. I've been meaning to replace the card for awhile. Your request helps spur me into action.

Once the video card is replaced, I'll re-upload them.

Possible to see the original scans of Xiga3 or HSAS 04?

XIGA3 is (finally) released. No guarantees on timeliness of the next few releases, as life will be busy for the rest of the year.

Great Work with XIGA3!

HSAS04 is released as a belated Christmas (or early New Year's) present. This release has been slow because I've been on hiatus since the beginning of autumn.

Linie tells me that XES Fantasia is nearly finished. After that will probably be Hellabunna's C82 release. I can't provide an estimated release date on it, though.
