Chibisuke-Scans

What anime are you watching now?

conankudo3 — Mon, 07 Jul 2008 00:56:57 GMT

I started this in the old forum, but we moved before it sprouted, and grew into either a decent post or a flame war. Right now I'm watching Okusama wa joushikousei (or, my wife is a highschool girl) and it's.... interesting. I'll leave for you decide for yourselves. http://myanimelist.net/anime.php?id=470 I just finished watching Shaman King, and now I'm trying to get a little bit farther on The Law of Ueki (http://myanimelist.net/anime.php?id=479) before Funimation re-releases it ...

Because this didn't really fit anywhere else <.< So, today, vol. 11 came out in HK a full two weeks? three weeks? maybe 1 month. after vol. 9/10 did. kouri is happy let's just talk about it..

Proofreader

WorldCon — Mon, 02 Nov 2009 05:18:36 GMT

Mostly due to lack of any good ongoing sports manga out there, and seeing that you guys were in need of proofreaders, I decided to apply.

I've been proofing manga for quite a while. Probably the most well known I've worked ones are Nyan Koi! and GE: Good Ending.

It probably helps to add that I'm an absolute football nut. My life revolves around playing Football Manager 2010 all day, so I know all my football terms.

translator

ahhao1993 — Sun, 09 Aug 2009 18:34:05 GMT

Chinese-> English
getting irritated at the lack of overdrive liaos !
main purpose is to read the raws in return for offering to scanlate, if possible. ~.~

Vongola Cross — Wed, 28 Oct 2009 18:50:42 GMT

And if i can help get these out i'm glad to do it. So here is the test pages you asked for. Test pages And here are some pages i've done before. Previous stuff Oh yeah and I can also do proofreads if you need it too. BTW: Something i'd really like to work on is Giant Killing if your still doing it that is.

justam — Sat, 05 Jul 2008 05:51:21 GMT

talk about everything and anything here. THIS is where rants, convo's, random cool stuff (like youtube videos) and pics (please, if they're from 4chan, keep it clean) all go.

so.... this video cracked me up recently: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0EKAtO4Anxc

For all your football/soccer needs.

Chapter 25

Dark-san — Fri, 23 Oct 2009 17:40:53 GMT

A long wait but then it is finally out! You dudes know what I am referring to. It's Over Drive 25 that I am talking about. Well as usual an apology for this late release. Our head QC has some RL issues to settle and has decided to put this on hold. And like I say earlier, me and a few handful of staff are picking up the pieces, so expect some releases to be on its way. Oh and also this chapter is the continuation of the race. GO CHIBISUKE! Out in IRC, DDL later.

Proofreader &/or possible QCer

zilch — Fri, 30 Oct 2009 04:36:13 GMT

In the last Ank chapter, I saw that you're looking to add to your team. I like to help. I'm a native English speaker (U.S.) and am willing to help proofread and possibly do some QC. I'm new to the scanalation process (great post explaining it justam!), so you'll have to break me in.

Chapter 44

Dark-san — Fri, 30 Oct 2009 09:04:11 GMT

A week after the release of Overdrive, it is time for a new chapter of Area no Kishi! I hope it isn't a long wait this time round. =\

After the trip, we will inform of a bad news by Kaoru! Has his jokes went too far or what actually happen behind the scenes for the Takase family? How will Kakeru and Seven even step in to help?

Square Enix thread

Kouri-chan — Thu, 03 Jul 2008 04:39:19 GMT

Since justam is a secret fanboy of Sq Enix I decided to do him a favour!

Anyway, I wasn't really much of an Enix fan before until they released The World Ends With You <3 <3 <3

And then now I'm playing FF Tactics A2: Grimoire of the Rift and it is really fun too ^_^

Air Gear

justam — Fri, 04 Jul 2008 08:07:50 GMT

ok, since I requested that kuu ad to be placed into our releases, it would not be right if we don't talk about air gear and everything related to air gear.

so... only point i want to make is... uh... it's a great read?

D.Gray-Man

shatteredbox — Sat, 30 Aug 2008 16:27:00 GMT

Ummm... well.... I just started it recently (the anime) but I've also read a bit of the manga (they started differently... it confused me heh heh) so does anyone else read/watch it? Personally, I like it! Also if you read and watch it then which is better? Anime or manga?

Kouri-chan — Tue, 19 Aug 2008 13:17:51 GMT

DESCRIPTION UNASHAMEDLY RIPPED (and edited) FROM GAIA ONLINE (Let's Speak Japanese guild) Shiritori is word "chaining" game that very popular in Japan! One person starts out by saying a Japanese word. (eg. "iro" -> colour) The next person will try to come up with a word with the first syllable same as the last one in "iro" which "ro" is. (eg. next word -> "rounin" ie. dropout in end-of-high-school exam) You cannot use words with ...

Quit

Tue, 21 Jul 2009 23:45:39 GMT

I was requested to write an appropriate farewell instead of my ragequit. So here it is. Generally speaking, I love animanga. I love the anime, I love the manga, I love the community, I love the individuals. In general, people have either been very welcoming or have trolled the living shit out of me, both of which are acceptable because the first makes me feel warm and fuzzy and the second makes me laugh. Chibisuke-scans will always hold a special spot in my memory as well. It's ...

Anime picture game

justam — Sat, 05 Jul 2008 06:00:34 GMT

Sorry for the one week delay apparently, there are many things that have kept me and the rest of the groups busy. Firstly this chapter requires a little bit more attention than usual because we had to iron out a few TS and cleaning issues. Secondly there is also the drama that is currently happening at MH. For now, we will not announced our release through Mangahelpers until the matter there is resolved. Be sure to track our release either through Mangaupdates or through the main site ...

By the end of Volume 5, we are glad that Araki came back lean, mean and stronger than the round shape he was in earlier. In chapter 38, we realized that his fats rebounce after instead of building his stamina, he went back to his eating binga.

Well this is not the end, Seven and his football guys have some sort of plan. But what is it? =0
