One Potato Two Company TP

TOKKO #1 Released

One word to describe this manga.

Gory gory gory.

Okay, that was three.

I'm going to be working on volume 3 soon.
After Speed Grapher, the video game, and Kitchen Princess #9.

I was so exhausted after Fanime I took a week off.
I even missed Book Expo.

I picked up Ed from MangaCast on Thursday to drop him off, so I did see the outside of the con center...
Thursday was the big game next door at the Staples Center (Lakers vs Spurs), so I wonder how crowded that area got when the con let out?

Anyway.

I've been trying to working on Speed Grapher #3, but I've been on the same page for the entire week.

I'm supposed to receive some Code Geass stuff from Company BEI this week too, so I better get working!

But the French Open is distracting me...

Foxy Lady #1 Released

Foxy Lady #1 is out.

I've seen mixed reviews on this one...
I guess it depends on your taste.

Finished Foxy Lady 3

I finished Foxy Lady #3.
There are so many characters in this story!
I had a hard time keeping track of their names...

I'm staying home today to catch UPS for my small project for Company DR, but in the meantime I'm working on Code Geass manga #2.

Busy busy busy!
And my wrist is still not 100% yet. Sob sob.

Starting Foxy Lady #3

I finished my other project, but I'm waiting on a response from my client.
I completely forgot that she is probably busy getting ready for NYCC, so I might have to wait until Monday or Tuesday to get it.
Tuesday is my deadline...I hope she notices the email sooner than that.

Anyway, while I wait for the response I am starting on Foxy Lady #3.
Since I need two hands to cut the manga up (I actually rip the pages off of the glue now), I wasn't able to because of my injured wrist.
I tore one page out and it hurt.

So I had a friend do it for me.
Thanks, Dave...

Tales Out of Season Released

Happy April Fool's Day!
Remember to wear green!
Oh, that's a different day...

I usually don't play pranks because I seem to always forget to say, "just kidding" at the end.

Anyway, Tales Out of Season, volume...3? in the Takumi-kun series, is out.
Or should be out soon.
According to Amazon.

Takumi and Gie try to solve a ghost story/mystery in this volume.

TOKKO Announced

So I guess it's announced that the TOKKO manga is coming out.
It's been on Amazon for a while, but I didn't want to say anything.

I've never seen the anime for this so I had to go through various websites to know a bit more about the story.

I worked on #1 and #2 so far, and #3 will probably be due...I don't know, June?
This manga was funny because I had a lot of SPLAT and SQUIRT that described blood or falling body parts.
I also liked Suzuka's outfit. She wore a jacket, open, with nothing underneath.
It's like she had Velcro on her boobs and jacket.

Anyway, please look for it in July!

Finished Speed Grapher #2

I finished Speed Grapher #2.
This volume takes place in Izu for the first half.

The dentist Euphoria is in it.
It was pretty grotesque.

Also gross was Suitengu's butt.
Please look for it when it comes out!

Now I can work on the Code Geass booklets and Shugo Chara #5.
Busy busy busy!

Title SG Announced

Happy Saint Patrick's Day!

I just wrote yesterday about Title SG...
And I guess it was announced on ICv2.

I'll be working on Speed Grapher #2 this week along with Code Geass #2.

I never saw the anime (I don't have any connections at Funimation), but I read spoilers and I like the ending.
Hopefully the manga ends it that way too.

Finished Dekiru Otoko ga Sukinanda!

I finished Dekiru Otoko ga Sukinanda! by Hinako Takanaga.

For a title that talks about "dekiru" guys, this volume is actually full of perverted sickos.
Even the author acknowledges it in her afterword.

I had a tough time translating the first two stories because of the character named Koji.
In the story, Koji is (supposed to be) a "dekiru" guy.
All the Koji's I have known in my life are actually all "hetare."

(Oops, I hope one of them is not reading this...)

Dekiru = exceptional, brilliant, impressive
Hetare = the opposite

So I had a hard time typing his name to match the character's lines and stuff.

Foxy Lady Announced

I saw on MangaCast that Foxy Lady is coming out in May.
Since Company T almost never announces new titles via a press release,
I'm always on the lookout for their "mini-announcements."

Usually I check their schedule here.
This time the announcement came through Diamond Previews.

The story is about Jin, an heir to a shrine, and Kogane, a half-demon fox-girl who wants to marry Jin so that she can become a full human.

The original Japanese title is very long...Shippu Karen Jinrai Komusume!
I'm glad they shortened it.

Barefoot Waltz Released

Barefoot Waltz is out.

Shingyoji is way hot.
The artist really likes the Shingyoji / Misu couple, so maybe that's why?

Finished Title T

Finished title T.

It was a little creepy because it's sort of a scary story, and I heard noises outside my house.
(I was working on it at 4am in the morning).

I'm glad I wasn't alone in the house...

Anyway, I'm glad I finished this title because it's one less book I have to take and bring back.

I will be finishing up With the Light #7 in Japan.

Now I'll go to sleep in wake up in 1.5 hours to leave for the airport.
At least I'll sleep well on the plane!
