Thank you for your hard work and this amazing chapter, I’m sorry it got delayed because of me 😦
and also thank you so much for your nice words, they give me diabetes O////O I’m just glad you like it
Hi Jackie, please don’t be a fan, I already have air conditioners, instead let’s be friends 🙂
Keep being awesome guys~
Thank YOU for the fanart!!!! (I seriously can’t say it enough xD. When I clicked the link, my jaw dropped and I fangirl-ed all over it <3). I'm sure everyone would agree that the delay was worth it 😀
You sure you'd be okay with being friends? Because my friends are fair game to stuff like: "fanart pweeeeeeeaaaaaaase" *bambi eyes, hinthintwinkwinknudgenudge* ;D. (If you're not daunted by that, I am leaping on the offer ❤ – can you tell I love your work?)
I have no air conditioners on my end =( just two fans. And a fireplace. xD
You’re welcome~ 😀
I have no problem with drawing fan arts, especially if it’s of something that I like, so expect more to come
But a little bit warning in advance, I’m diagnosed with quite a severe procrastination O3O
*sweats*
Where I live it’s just unbearable to live without AC, there’s also no winter here ;(
*epically rolls off into the sunset*
Pfft. Aren’t we all. I still contend that procrastination is the only coping mechanism that works ;P. Aaaah! More fanart?! You’re going to kill me with the anticipation!!!! ❤
Oh man. Your summers must be sweltering. It's actually super awesome where I'm at. The hottest it ever got (on record) was 33.8 C (92.84 F for if you're from the States xD) – it usually averages 14-22 C though. But on that note, we have (if lucky) 3 months of sunny weather, and a gazillion more months of rain. Haha.
Procrastination FTW! Although I always regret it at the end =v=”
I already have something in mind fore the next fanart~ :>
I live in a tropical country, so it’s sunny and rainy season only
Although recently the weather is messed up, on one day it can rain all day long and there’ll be flood, the next day is just so hot you can get an instant tan if you don’t wear jacket.
Can I live at your place instead? lol
*Stares and points at your userpic* It’s Banao~! 😀 Also, lovely artwork! ^____^
OMG, lol
you might think I’m retarded but I just knew the name of the banana from you
My friend and I saw it on a TV show, we think it looks so silly but we never knew what it’s called, so we just call it Yaranaika Banana XD
Thank you! ❤
Hahaha, I only regret procrastination right before whatever is due is due ;D. And then the cycle repeats hehe.
… So… how may I wheedle hints of this new idea for fanart out of you? I totally wouldn’t do it obviously *blinks innocently*. It’s just curiosity, of course. *More blinks*
We totally welcome you~ As long as you don’t mind the ridiiiiiculous housing prices that keep going up every year >_> (It’s better the farther you are from downtown, which thankfully I am xD, but still, urggggh).
I think your chastisement of readers on MangaFox was needlessly bitchy. Maybe you should give a little thought to the reasons so many people prefer to use sites like that; going to a hundred individual scanlator sites to check for/acquire updates and new series I might like is an arduous process and I have precious little free time; I’d prefer to spend it actually reading manga, not looking for it.
I’ve scanlated manga before, and I found that engaging with MangaFox’s community of readers was sufficiently rewarding. I’ve never even given much thought to maintaining my own scanlation site, because that seems like a hassle.
That’s not to say that sites like MangaFox don’t have a lot of problems, but then scanlating itself is already a process which denies the original creator their due rewards. It would be nice if someone would come up with a better solution that makes everything fair and accessible across the board, but that’s not likely to happen any time soon.
To be clear, I’m not criticizing you for not posting your scanlations on MangaFox – that’s your prerogative – I’m criticizing you for being an insulting bitch to most of your readers, whose only “crime” (in your eyes) is continuing to read it on the same site where they found it in the first place.
I see where you are coming from and I apologize that you were offended enough that you used your precious free time to come to our site to comment on it. It must have upset you a lot.
It was mostly meant in jest (though you didn’t take it that way, I see, and I apologize again for that), though part of it was serious. The serious part was aimed at people who were complaining that we weren’t updating even though we clearly mentioned twice in the previous chapter that we would stop posting on aggregate sites. The frustration was mostly at the fact that people don’t read the warnings or messages we give them. Not aimed at people who, in fact, do read our messages.
I agree with the problem with the scanlation world. We are, in fact, distributing work that isn’t ours. Same as aggregate sites like mangafox. It doesn’t make up for this fact, but we would stop distributing and scanlating if it became licensed. =) Please rest assured.
Anywho, hopefully you eased your ire with this rant. I’m sure you’ll continue to read on aggregate sites to save your time (and that’s fair. I’m a reader too, so I get where you’re coming from). Sorry again that we ticked you off to the point of going out of your way lol.
I use manga reader sites on a regular basis and I personally want to upload to the manga reader sites, perhaps at a delayed rate compared to our own releases, but eventually, and that is what we have been doing. However I respect when my partner feels like the readers are leeching from her and respect her wishes to not post on websites such as that or delay them. Through this blog I feel like we have created a community of friends who help support us and encourage us to keep at our work. A prime example of that is only recently, when Jackie and I had been on quite a break, and a couple of comments really inspired us to kick back into the latest chapters. You made it clear in your final paragraph that you were not criticizing us for that, but rather our own way of making a community. (Which for us, there was no such thing on manga fox).
I don’t even see how we have “criminalized” manga readers as you say, and our experiences with them have obviously been completely different to your own.
However your response to this was complete misconception, proving you lack any form of humour or respect for community, and it was /completely uncalled for/. I was the one who wanted to post the chapters, but I also was the one who created the pages at the end of chapter 12 and I will not allow my team-mate to be abused because of that.
If you wish to discuss this further, please personally send us a message about your concerns.
Thank you sooo much ♥
No worries! 😀 I hope you like it xD
I cant read the last 3 pages TTnTT
hm… weird. Is it not loading on your screen? :O [I can try re-uploading them if the problem persists]
Thank you for your hard work and this amazing chapter, I’m sorry it got delayed because of me 😦

No problem~ thanks for the encouragement! (I kind of need it hahaha… been procrastinating like mad o.O)
