[ElonNarai]

And another row filled.

And a note for the record: I hate sound effects and translating them...

What happened to the pages?The links are broken?

[ElonNarai]

Links are working fine. (just checked to be certain)

Maybe you meant that what I wrote in green?
If that is the case then I meant that I won't update the link in that section to refer to the last updated content of the manga (aka the post in which I release a new page). I changed it now.

[Daisensei]

Phew! One more volume was finished! By  the way, according to the board stats this thread is among Top 10 topics by both replies and views.Page 31

The topic's popularty is very well-deserved, it's great that so much progress is being made on this translation. The part where Otama accidentally says what she was thinking is very funny. She's got a one-track mind sometimes.

[ElonNarai]

Sorry, it took so long but I had to spent some time on my programming homework.

On another note: Within a few weeks I will be on vacation which means: No internet.
I will post when I actually do leave, but I will be here home for at least another two weeks.

[Dante The Gunslinger]

It happen again link broken.Why it happen?

[felineki]

Links are working fine for me.

[ElonNarai]

Ok, link is broken now. I just noticed and I have looked up the reason:

Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Too many connections in /home/gigafiles/domains/gigafiles.co.uk/public_html/includes/mysql.class.php on line 5
mySQL: Too many connections on line 5 in /home/gigafiles/domains/gigafiles.co.uk/public_html/includes/mysql.class.php

Guess you have to be patient or in anybody knows a reasonable file host that supports images than I'm willing to look in it.

[ElonNarai]

REQUEST: if anyone wants to redo the page, please by my guest! As you can see I sucked at this one but then again I'm a programmer and not an artist (the opposite ^_^).

@Daisensei: Yesterday morning I watched the last episode of Tekkaman, still couldn't recongnize Honda on this page but hell! Loved the serie by the way, even the ending ^_^.

[Daisensei]

ElonNarai, I think it's not necessary redo the Page 32, it's good enough in my opinion. The page of this week will make you smile, I bet, because it's short.
By the way, does anyone know or even own Taose! Karaoke Bachou or Cyber Comics (issue 44)?Page 33

EN      “The previous 1st and 2nd volumes were published in the book 'Taose! Karaoke Banchou' and in the issue 44 of Cyber Comics, so buy it and go read! (it was not a summary, but an advert)
Wankoo-no-kami's voice   “Iya haya”
EN            “Oh dear!”

[ElonNarai]

Ok, tomorow I have a few test, so wish me and the rest luck.

Also I had some help with this one and he learned me some small tricks with photoshop (he is an artist.) So give a small and silent thanks to cgraph.

"Honey!! I'm home!!"

I see now that I wrote down the wrong date of my return (oh... now he finds out, baka!!) but it was today.

A few updates:
1. I have translated the first two pages and I need to translate only the index (well, I changed the text on it)
2. I have switched to Adobe Photoshop CS3 (is more easier to work with)

Guess I will start copy&paste tomorrow.

[Daisensei]

It's good to see you are back, ElonNarai. It's nice to work with you in this scanlation project. Now I'm posting the  page 37. Page 37

[ElonNarai]

Sorry that it took so long to actually upload the things, but when I got back I couldn’t sleep the first few day (too bright and 20 degree difference in temperature) so until yesterday I was pretty much a zombie.

I also found out that gigafiles.co.uk is working again… but since I don’t trust them as much as box.net I will make sure to keep backups there.
So if the pictures below aren’t working check the following link: http://www.box.net/shared/6quskrx9ft
