Yeah, I stupidly (and blindly) decided to pick up this project and guess the reason why? Because I love the song.Now that, xah, is a seriously stupid reason.

I totally surprised myself though, because I've never really listened to vocaloid before scanlating this chapter.

But scanlating this chapter has totally drained the life out of me. I am not translating anything (might edit some stuff that I already have translations for though) for the next who week (might translate Gu Fang novel in the weekend though).

I have so many tests, exams, assignments, stuff and more stuff to do. I am so...... gaahhh!!! >_<

But anyway, the song...Shiryoku Kensa...
Sung by Soraru || My favourite version || Original version? No idea

This chapter is so-so, not that interesting but not that uninteresting. The art's pretty good but the storyline is so........... It's too early to say anything as there is only one chapter in the world.

Now the release...
Shiryoku Kensa Ch01

This will be the last series I pick up until I finish some more..... (I think and I hope)

Have fun reading!

P.S: Although this series seems to be shoujo (I think it is), but there isn't much furigana so this could be josei? Most shoujo I've translated have furigana on every name, every kanji, but this one was just on the name when it first appears, like Kaidan Tochuu. The art is also seemingly odd for a shoujo or josei, but that might just be because it's a web magazine...(I judged by the plot, but I don't know for sure?)

So even if this one is shoujo, please don't set this as the default demographic of this series. Mozaik Role (my opinion) is more shounen/seinen, haven't a clue for Meg Meg Sing Song Fighter, Noushou Sakuretsu Girl seems seinen to me, Sarishinohara seems like a sweet shounen art style, but a shoujo plot? Maybe?

Leaves me clueless.

The News:

• Releases of other series: Haven't forgotten yet. I think I'm going to put Gu Fang novel, Cooking Master Boy and Kaichou-kun no Shimobe on top priority, Black Trick and Root WPB on high priority and World End Fairytale on medium..
  
• I am very busy for the last couple of weeks and this week. I've been sleeping late (well, I always did, I've been going to bed at 1:30 since I was thirteen, which makes about two years xD) but I do need a rest. Do not pressure me for releases or else I am really gonna go crazy (I probably am though)
  
• I have more tests. If you want specifics, please PM me since I do not want to waste time here.
  
• There's couple more new series I would really like to scanlate, but I highly doubt I will due to having so many projects without many staff. But I won't do any recruiting today.
  
• Oh I forgot, results for the competition. Ended 15th out of 382 (apparently that's the exact number) and got 4278 points overall. Winner got 4981 (the max is 5000). As expected, I totally failed with the structuring with several sentences and others were just plain stupid. Got a "gold" certificate anyway though. Fairly happy in that idea.

じゃね! (see you) xD
xah

wow just....wow

Your gonna end up having 50+ series here lol

It seems everytime i come here looking for Gufang releases you start another series O_o

your gonna burn yourself out soon :(

'coz what I scanlate/translate tends to be the only manga/novels I read.

I can pick up what I want then. When I update it, it's because I want to read it.

So what if I'm not too keen on translating Gu Fang? There's a new character in the next chapter and it's not like I don't have difficulty translating historical.

Besides, I really like this new series + it's a new magazine (very new actually)

I guess I've already burned myself out, been like this for more than a year now.

Please try to understand and don't comment on it. I did say that this would be my last project for a while.

xah~

Did you take my comment as some kind of attack on you???

Well i guess text is easy to misinterpret depending on what mood your in. I was just worried at the amount of projects you were starting and about all the ones you have already started not being updated.

if all you want are comments of positive thanks on this forum plz tell me

No no no, I don't take any offense, it's just that sometimes I act rather hostile to those who bug me for releases. Or people who openly attack how I do things (like...what do they know?).

I'm sorry if I offended you.
