Good news and bad news… (more…)

Best chapter of volume 21 is here.

It took almost a month, huh?

Yah I twitter since a few days ago. Mostly about scanlational stuff. *points to right top corner of this blog*

Pastel is coming along nicely, even though I don’t have much time to spare.

I just found out that on mangahelpers there are two raws of Pastel v21. One is a PDF (eww) and the other one has some easily spotted flaws.
So if anybody can supply me with some other raws before I start editing, it would be pretty cool.

Apparently, Pastel is *really* popular. Though I can’t explain why so many people downloaded chapter 103.

I’m finally done with the venture capital stuff (or at least I hope that’s the case) so I can get working on the next chapter soon.

So before uni starts to get stressful (term started a week ago), I grabbed what was available (I had chapter 104 lined up and ready for more than three weeks already, chapter 103 cleaned and waiting, scripts for all three chapters translated and checked since begin of March), went on an editing frenzy, had a few friends to look over the resulting pages and now we got about 140 pages of Pastel, concluding volume 20. Admittedly, it was the job of other people who were assigned for it, but at least it’s finally done now.

There are two volume left (so far), since Volume 22 has been published in Japan two weeks ago!

A friend of mine recently visited… Onomichi! It’s the place where Pastel takes place. For those of you who don’t know, the manga depicts a lot of real places in Onomichi.

Have a look at his blog, it’s really interesting:
