Shiro Lala One-shot: "The Wizard and the Love Potion"

This is a really sweet one-shot.  As of now this is tied with "Dinner in my Coffin" as my favorite Shiro Lala one-shot.  This one-shot had tough redraws on nearly every page, so I would like to thank Ichigo Stars and Kumiko for all the work they put in to make the release of this one-shot possible.  It's beautiful, you guys!  I really appreciate it.

This one-shot plays with fairytale troupes.  It feels very familiar, but I think this one-shot was well done, so I enjoyed the "remix".  If you haven't read Toyota Yuu's other one-shot "The Honeybee Earl and the Flower Dress", you may want to.  It's a nice companion to this one-shot.

And now onto the links!

Up Next!

I'm working on plans for December.  There are a bunch of series chapter and one-shots that are half done. I would like to complete these hanging projects before moving onto new material.  I'm going to spend this month completing these chapters and one-shot so we can have a fresh start in January.  We will still be doing "Akagami no Shirayukihime" chapter 28 as promised.  It's just that Yukarism and Magnolia may get released later this month or in January.

Speaking of "Yukarism", it's going on hiatus again after only two chapters.  It will resume at the end of January.  It sounds like Shiomi-sensei needs a rest.  Let's all wish her well and hope that she feels better soon.

Torn About AnS from the Magazine

Update: Thanks to everyone who thoughtfully responded right away.  Your love of AnS is clear and I hear it.  I think the majority of you understand the difficulty of working with a bad raw and that we as a group don't want to do mediocre releases if there's an alternative.  So...here's what we're going to do:

• Chapter 28 will be released as scheduled in December
• In place of releasing a mediocre Chapter 29 in January, we will release the extras from Volume 6.
• Chapter 29 will be done from the tankoubon as soon as we get it.  My hope is that it will be released sometime in February.
• Chapter 30 and beyond we will consider month to month.  Hopefully, at least chapters 30 and 31 will be printed in the nice section of Lala so there won't be much of a gap.  I will do the translation along with the Lala releases and post summaries for those who want to be spoiled. 

------------------------------------------------------------
Update:  Just to clarify, chapter 28 is coming out in December.  Chapter 29 is one I'm talking about.  It was planned for January.  We are going to move it to February so we can use a high quality raw.  My concern is what happens if the volume 8 chapters in Lala are crappy.  This could lead to a 4 month gap if we only use the tankoubon.

I just got Lala 1/2012 today and "Akagami no Shirayukihime" was printed in the crappy section of the magazine.  The image quality is not what I would like it to be.  Consquently, the resulting release would looks very different from the quality all of you and I are not used to.
It is my preference to work from a nice raw because Akiduki's drawings are gorgeous and deserve to be showcased.  At the same time, I realize that the team and I have volunteered to serve more than just ourselves.  I imagine there are those of you for whom legible is good enough.  So the question is whether we as a group put the time and effort into cleaning and redrawing what would be a medium quality (at best) release or do we wait for the tankoubon and do high quality releases?  My feeling is now that AnS is monthly the tankoubon will be released every five or six months and volume 7 will be released in February 2012.  We would release chapter 28 in December as planned and then go from the tankoubon after.  If we work from the magazine, we will not go back and redo it from the tankoubon, so whatever crap comes out of Lala magazine is what you would get.
---------------------------

Update:  I think skipping a release in January isn't a big deal.  The real problem comes after Chapter 30 if they continue to print the series in the crappy part of the magazine.  We'd have to wait until the 8th volume to continue which could potentially be in the late summer :(.  I think, though, chapter 3/29 is too important to do a poor job on.  I'm really baffled as to why such an important chapter was printed so poorly.

Anyhow, I want to know how you all feel about it.  Please leave a comment with your thoughts and suggestions.  I will also put up a poll in the right side column of this blog.

Shiro Lala One-Shot: "Ginsekai no Shoumei" by Akiduki Sorata

Here is Akiduki Sorata's Shiro Lala one-shot "Ginsekai no Shoumei" ("The Snowscape's Emblem").  The image above is a scan of one of the freebie post cards.  The large size image (click on the image to see it larger) can be used as wallpaper on your PC or mobile.

A note about the spelling of "Akiduki".  A few people have asked me about the change in the spelling.  I had been spelling it "Akidzuki" and "Akizuki" is another common spelling.  The mangaka herself began romanizing her name and the titles of her works a few months ago.  Whether right or wrong, she has been consistently spelling her name "Akiduki".  Since that's her preferred spelling, I'm using it.  That is not the proper romanization, but...when using roman letters to generate hiragana and katakana づ is "du", so perhaps that's where she's getting it from.

Moving onto the one-shot!  In my opinion this is the best one-shot from Akiduki-sensei that this group has released.  The characters are interesting and their interaction is nice.  The end, though, leaves much to be desired,  It's very rushed and doesn't fit considering what happened to make the main female lead, Leah, return home.  There should have been more conflict and reflection on Leah's part about leaving home for a second time.  I think this would have worked better as a 50 - 60-page one-shot or a 2 or 3 chapter short series.

Anyhow, onto the links!

We have one more Shiro Lala that we want to get out immediately -- Toyota Yuu's "The Magician and the Love Potion".   Hopefully, we can get that out this weekend. After that, we will go back to our regular schedule on our series, plus 2 or 3 one-shots a month.  Through Spring 2012, we will be releasing one-shots from Kuro Lala and Shiro Lala, so look out for them!  The next Shiro Lala one-shot will by Sakura Tsukuba's "Sabaki no Mon".  It will be released in early December.
