2x2 = Fun!!!

Here's something to hold y'all over untill chapter 3.
Write me a script of what you think they're saying and I'll post the best ones once I get enough.

(You can post them in the comments section)

[Anime-Sake] = drunk translations?

O_o I just learned that another group called Anime-Sake is doing 2x2=Shinobuden too!
Looks like they were going to be tough competition, but I went to their site and read their version... and um... frankly, they need some english lessons.
Check out their site and decide for yourself.

2x2 ga Shinobuden chapter 2 !!

Here's the long-awaited 2x2 ga Shinobuden chapter 2 !!!
I realized last time that the scans looked a little washed up and dull, so I took better scans this time!! The images are bigger, but you get more detail.

---Edited originals out---

Doing the SFX is fun, but takes a long time. O_o I wish I had more time to work on this.
Also, my good pal C-dawg is gonna help me translate too! This way we can get Shinobu out more timely...
'Til next time, have fun!!!!

I just learned how to use png format to compress the images and get a clearer picture, so I redid all the pages of chapter 2.

*sigh*

Sorry, I meant to have another post up on Thursday, but I had lots of hw this week, so chapter two might end up coming out a few days later.

Stay tuned!

NOTES:
1) I didn't translate the SFX on page 9 panel 5 because I honestly have no idea what it would be in english besides "realization" and I didn't want to put that in.

2) Emmanuelle refers to a book and an arthouse movie from 1974 where a woman named Emmanuelle discovers her sexuality... in various ways. I haven't seen it. Here's a link to it on Amazon

Edit: Reported missing last page fixed 4-20-05

Yay image shack!

Okay I'm working on uploading to Image shack so it'll be up again in a bit.

Geocities STILL sucks!!

Well as some of you who visited my site (thank you!) have noticed, I managed to surpass the data transfer maximum on Geocities. Man, I used to use them like 7 years ago and their services really haven't improved much. They still only give 15 megs and sites go down all the time. I'm changing to another free webservice, so if you see pictures, I finished changing things. I'll keep the Geocities crap around for the text files... they aren't huge pictures, so they won't surpass the download maximum any time soon.

2x2 ga Shinobuden Vol 1 Chapter 0

2x2 ga Shinobuden (the nonsense kunoichi fiction) is about Shinobu, the ninja girl and her wacky adventures. Here's all that I've scaned so far, enjoy!! Remember to read right-to-left!

CHAPTER #0 and cover

The last page is my shameless translator watermark thing so if you're just reading don't bother downloading it.

Nanaka 6/17 Anime

Okay, I made these files a long time ago when Nanaka 6/17 came out and I only translated episodes 1, 3, and 4 for "Miyuki no Tamari", along with some other explanation files. If you come across their fansub copy, I did it.

Nanaka 6/17 name explanation
Nanaka episode 1 script
Nanaka episode 3 script
Nanaka episode 4 script

Not like anyone would read 'em, but might as well put them here to so I can remember.

I've got a 4 hour lunch break between classes now so I decided to translate another chapter for M-K. Here it is whee!!! Look for it soon on the M-K website.

Well, after weeks of sitting around, I finally got down and wrote up CJ ch 7. It has all the points in it that make the story of Kat (Cat) and Corey more interesting, but like all chapters in manga, they're just too short. Anyhow, enjoy.

My projects!!!

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us

Hiya world! I'm Ikariya the squiddy.
I translate manga for various people and reasons. First reason being that I want people to enjoy manga without having to take 4 or 5 years to learn japanese like I did. Other reason being... money? nah just kidding. I will update my blog site as I translate pages and post my translations on the coresponding series post.

http://manga-koekje.com/
Follow the link to the group I do CJail for and you'll find me on their forum and idling in their chatroom on irc. Download their stuff!!

Potential personal projects:
2x2 ga Shinobuden
Ichigo 100%
Pretty Face
Konjiki no Gashu
other crap on my shelf

I don't know where I can host raws yet, so bear with me.

~Ika

I almost forgot, DON'T use my translations without my permission!!!! Please e-mail me or something first if you want to use them. I'm doing this for fun, but to take someone's work as your own... shame on you! I'll probably say 'yes' anyway...
