Final Word on Infection (Manga by Toru Oikawa)

Hmm. I know I said that I would get another chapter of this out some time ago and even put it on my schedule about a month ago, but to be honest, I really don't fucking want to. I mean, there's honestly no point at all wasting my time doing 1 chapter when I honestly could just work on something more meaningful and something that I enjoy instead, and for one thing finish eventually. That's why I don't plan to continue this series at all, in future or at any stage. You probably already guessed that, but I just wanted to have an official post to let those interested know. However, the actual only way to get me to continue will be by commission. Yeah yeah, I know, but there has to be something in it for me if it's for something that I don't enjoy or really don't want to do. It's that simple. If you want to commission me, I will do it and right away. Not that I actually expect anyone to do that, but it is an option if you really want to read more. Anyway, I hope you guys understand. Umm, bye.

Terra ForMars - A New Chapter - #3 English (Chapter 176)

Storming through the party like my name was El ninio. When I'm hangin' out drinking in the back of an El Camino. As a kid, I was a skid and no one knew me by name. I trashed my own house party cause no body came. I know I'm not the one you thought you knew back in high school. Never going, never showing up when we had to, attention that we crave don't tell us to behave, I'm sick of always hearing act your age. I don't want to waste my time become another casualty of society. I'll never fall in line. Become another victim of your conformity. And back down. Because you don't Know us at all we laugh when old people fall. But what would you expect with a conscience so small. Heavy metal and mullets it's how we were raised. Maiden and priest were the gods that we praised Cause we like having fun at other peoples expense and, Cutting people down is just a minor offence then, It's none of your concern, I guess I'll never learn. I'm sick of being told to wait my turn. I don't want to waste my time become another casualty of society.

Ahem. Enough of that. I knew I said I was going to put them out at a slower pace, but I figured that I'd get another chapter out before working on another series since they're only 18 pages with a medium level of text. Infection on the other hand, a fuck-ton of text. Ugh. That'll be a nightmare. But, I think I'll work on Great Mazinger first instead and stall Infection another week. I want to work on it, but there is a fuck-ton of text per page in comparison to anything else I've worked on and that's really annoying. In any case, unsure about Saito's forname as the fucking scans are cut close taking away some of the image on every goddamn page including the one with his forename which had (if it had any) the ateji for the true reading of the characters. Meh. Who cares, anyway. Enjoy the chapter.

Coming Schedule

Ah, yes. What are the things that I have planned after my temporary dropping of Terra ForMars may you ask? Well, first off pic unrelated. However, I would just like to mention that it was a bit sad to see that nobody picked up Infection because as it may not look like the greatest thing ever made, it still does look pretty decent and I'm sure that with translations we'll be able to further judge that for ourselves. And, that's why I'll get another chapter out sooner or later and since I said I would in the 4chan thread not too long ago, but there are some things that take priority. Now, I'll just create a list in order of how I plan to go about things for the coming weeks.

• Higurashi: Usomabushi-hen - Part 2
• Kyochuu Rettou: Chapter 12 - Part 1
• Neo Devilman: Volume 3 - Chapter 7
• Terra ForMars: Chapter 175
• Infection: Chapter 5
• Neo Devilman: Volume 2 - Chapter 3
• Terra ForMars: Chapter 176
• ???

What comes after that? Hmm, I'm unsure at the moment but I might hit up something Go Nagai because I've honestly focused too much on the Terra ForMars series and not on others. However, depending or not if Hokuto no Gun start on Violence Jack again I may do that or finish off the rest of Great Mazinger. Other than that, not thinking about much at the moment. However, you are free to suggest something in the comments section if you like. See ya!

P.S - This schedule is not definite. Things may change priority.

Infection: Chapter 4 - Escape Time

So am I still waiting For this world to stop hating Can't find a good reason Can't find hope to believe in Drop dead A bullet to my head Your words are like a gun in hand You can't change the state of the nation We just need some motivation These eyes Have seen no conviction Just lies and more contradiction So tell me what would you say I'd say it's time too late....

Man, I love that song. Anyway, not really liking how the story is going in this manga so sadly I’ve decided to drop it in favor of other things. The first chapter was decent enough but it has slowly started going downhill because I’ve had a look a the raws and it looks kinda shit to be honest. That, it’s weekly and I won’t be able to catch up to the raws like that by myself. However, hopefully some other group will take over and continue, but if not, I’ll still pump out a chapter every now and then for old times sake. At any rate, sorry to burst your bubble but I really want to get back into Terra Formars. That’s where I’m heading next. Anyway, love you and leave you. see ya! Big meaty throbbing zombie cocks of the dead signing off! It was fun while it lasted. See ya!

P.S. - I was actually meant to have this out yesterday but I couldn't be bothered and got sidetracked with a few Rayearth things. The latter was more important. Suck it.

Kyochuu Rettou (The Island of Giant Insects) Chapter 9 - Part 1 English Translation

California girls. We're unforgettable. Daisy Dukes. Bikinis on top. Sun-kissed skin. So hot. We'll melt your popsicle. Oooooh Oh Oooooh. California girls. We're undeniable. Fine, fresh, fierce. We got it on lock. West Coast represent. Now put your hands up. Oooooh Oh Oooooh. Sex on the beach We don't mind sand in our stilettos We freak in my jeep Snoop Doggy Dogg on the stereo You could travel the world But nothing comes close To the golden coast Once you party with us You'll be falling in love Oooooh Oh Oooooh.

Didn't expect that, did you? Ha ha. I love that song. Anyway, getting close to the current raws now. There's only about 5 more until that point but sadly when I get there, chapters of Kyochuu Rettou that I release will be released monthly since that's the Japanese schedule. Sigh. I'd rather have it semi-monthly because the story would actually progress then. At any rate, not much to say other than that. Stopman signing off. Red Needle!

Infection: Chapter 3 - A Single Life Hangs

Dull dull dull, your lives are oh so dull. You stay inside your sealed house and cower like a frightened mouse, dull dull dull, your lives are oh so dull. You sit inside your bunkers with filters all around, what kind of a life is that when you spend it underground. You never venture outdoors you always stay inside, what kind of a life is that when all you do is hide. Dull dull dull, your lives are oh so dull "Oh my aching back, someone help me please". Young young young, how stupid are the young. A brick could fall upon your head, we'd rather stay indoors instead. Young young young, so foolish are the young. Dead dead dead, you spend your lives in bed. You stay inside and shake with fear should a nasty germ come near, dead dead dead, we'll take that chance instead. You never watch a sunset, or see the light of day. What kind of a life is that when you keep it locked away. You've become pathetic shadows of what once you were...hmmm. What kind if a life is that ten thousand years with her. Dead dead dead, we'd rather live instead. Young young young, how foolish are the young. A brick could fall and crack your skull we're better off by being dull, young young young, we do not trust the young. Dull dull dull, you are extremely dull. Why should we except your lot to stay inside and slowly rot dull dull dull, we'd rather crack our skulls.

Ahhh, tired! TIRED! Ugh. Don't ask how many hours to took to translate and typeset this. Fuckin' knackered. Why is there so much text crammed on to these fucking pages? I mean, Kyochuu Rettou is a breeze in comparison and enjoyable. This? This fucking stresses me out. Meh. Anyway, not much to say other than the Portuguese (who never responded when I messaged them about it) got character names wrong and had "river" for kawauchi even though kawauchi is a fucking distict in Sendai City. Stupid fucks. At least check shit first. Sheesh. Now go watch Lexx, ya stupid, ungrateful, underage fucks. I'm not in the mood. Fuck off.

Kyochuu Rettou (The Island of Giant Insects) Chapter 8 - Part 2 English Translation

I'm an ass man. Yeah I'm an ass man (Yeah!). I love to love 'em. I love to kick 'em. I love to shove 'em. I love to stick 'em. Love to flaunt 'em. I love to watch 'em. I love to pick 'em. And I'm gonna kick 'em, 'cause I'm an Ass Man. Yeah, I'm an Ass man. Yes I'm an Ass man (Ohhhh). I'm an Ass Man. So many asses, so little time. Only a tight one, can stop me on the dime. I'm a lover, of every kind. The best surprises always sneak up from behind. I'm an Ass man. Yeah, I'm an Ass man. Yes I'm an Ass man (Ohhhh)!

It was either that or "I like big butts". Anyway, got this next chapter done quick. I like that about Kyochuu Rettou since Infection is a real drag with a ton of text and a lot of pages. Kinda why I wanted a nice little break by working on Kyochuu Rettou and playing Rome Total War before hitting the next chapter. Fucking egyptians. I tell ya. Ahem. Anyway, there were a few odd lines in this chapter but nothing major other than that. However, kinda pissed at KR at the moment because I checked out the latest raw and oh fuck why did that have to happen. Meh. Stupid. Other than that, I'll leave you for now. Cyclet games signing off.

P.S. - I'll start on the next chapter of Infection tomorrow.

Kyochuu Rettou (The Island of Giant Insects) Chapter 8 - Part 1 English Translation

Boom boom boom boom. I want you in my room. We'll spend the night together. From now until forever. Boom boom boom boom. I wanna go boom boom. And spend the night together. Together in my room. Whoaa whoaa. Everybody get on down. Whoaa whoaa. Vengaboys are back in town. Whoaa whoaa. This is what I wanna do. Whoaa whoaa. Let's have some fun. Whoaa whoaa. One on one just me and you. Whoaa whoaa

Meh. Meant to have this out yesterday but I was tired after work so only did some typesetting, played Rome Total War instead, flicked around some Russian Lexx fan site for quite a bit and jumped in bed. Anyway, enough about me. Now, there was also some hard redraw this chapter on a few pages so I hope people won't notice how bad I did it. Not like anyone would mention. In any case, is it just me or has the art gotten worse in the past few chapters? Meh. Who cares. Bye.

Infection: Chapter 2 - The Bitten People

My name is Tarzan, I am Jungle-man. The tree-top swinger from jungleland. Come, baby come, I will take you for a swing. Let's go, honey, I'm tinkling. Tarzan is handsome, Tarzan is strong. He's really cute, and his hair is long. Tarzan is handsome, Tarzan is strong . So listen to the Jungle-song!

When I am dancing, I feel funky. Oh, right. Song time over. Anyway, had a tough time with this chapter. There was a shit-ton of text to translate and to typeset. Shit's fucking frustrating. But, I actually got a little help in the form of redraw from the Portuguese group scanlating the series and also what kaiyui kurosaki did for chapter 2 since he dropped the series in favor of me doing it instead. And that's me set until chapter 6 for redraw. Yippee! Thanks a bunch. Woah! At any rate, other than that, this was a very boring chapter with cringy dialogue. However, things do step up next chapter of  rape worm apocalypse of the dead so I look forward to chapter 3. Umm, bye!

Kyochuu Rettou (The Island of Giant Insects) Chapter 7 - Part 2 English Translation

If it hadn't been for Cotton-Eye Joe. I'd been married a long time ago. Where did you come from, where did you go? Where did you come from, Cotton-Eye Joe? If it hadn't been for Cotton-Eye Joe. I'd been married a long time ago. Where did you come from, where did you go? Where did you come from, Cotton-Eye Joe?

Music references aside, art wise, it was a bit depressing to go from Infection back to Kyochuu Rettou. Other than that, I still enjoy the series but I think we all know the plot won't be going anywhere soon. However, let's just hope that something happens somewhere down the line. I want to find out about the facility and what exactly happened to the island. Can't they like meet a survivor and have a flashback to the initial wave of giant bug cocks? It's not much to ask and it'll be better than running from bug to bug simply showcasing them for chapters. Anyway, another chapter done so I'll get back on Infection now. The next Infection chapter is 40 pages long so it has reduced by about 25 pages since the first. Good. Can't wait 'till it gets down to a manageable size. Other than that, I'll see you next time on the Island of Giant Bug Cocks! Bye!

Infection: Chapter 1 - Infection Revolution

Crawling in my skin. These wounds they will not heal. Fear is how I fall. Confusing what is real. There's something inside me that pulls beneath the surface. Consuming, confusing. This lack of self-control I fear is never ending. Controlling. I can't seem... To find myself again. My walls are closing in (without a sense of confidence and I'm convinced that there's just too much pressure to take). I've felt this way before. So insecure!

Ha ha. Jokes aside. I actually kinda like Infection. It may be generic and with a ton of cliques, but that doesn't stop it from being entertaining. Anyway, I had been planning to this since mid/late december but only got around to it now due to Terra Formars, Evangelion: Girlfriend of Steel Special Edition and Kyochuu Rettou and I also wanted to get a Neo Devilman chapter out. However, seems that another group jumped the gun and already released before I did. Buuuut, I don't really care about that. I contacted him and we may end up working together on the series.

In other news, the guys I was working with totally fucked up. Not only did they forget to clean a few pages, they also didn't deliver when they said they would with the color pages redrawn yesterday. And I gave them days ahead notice that I was planning to release yesterday, but not a peep out of 'em. Therefore, I had to redraw and clean the color pages and one they couldn't redraw myself today after I got outta work. Ugh. Come outta work and had to spend like 5 frickin' hours at it non-stop to get it done. Anyway, being pissed aside. I'd just like to mention a few TL things. First, raggy sis. Now, the "ragi" part seem to be a shortened version of the Japanese word for "rugged" or "raggy" so that's what I went with rather than leaving it untranslated. Unless I'm wrong (probably) and it means something else.

At any rate, there's also the "hentai vision" line. That just said ero so again what we all love, hentai. Hentai is my favorite anime! Ah. My bad. Anyway, there was also the shit in a can part, but he just said "just in case, this" but I found it funny to change that line so shit in a can it was. That, and it implies the same thing. Lastly, this also took my quite a while to translate and typeset. Hmm. Why do I always have to do everything myself? Being me is suffering, you know? Other than that, enjoy the chapter and see ya next time on rape worm apocalypse of the dead.

My Plan for 2016

Pic unrelated

Now, as those who come on here may know, I recently finished up work on GOS Special Edition and in a couple of days will finish the final chapter of Rain Hard which will leave me with free time to work on other things next year. What will they be may you ask? Well, first off there's Terra Formars Gaiden Asimov and Keiji and then there's my own personal list that I've got as well. You can see what they are and everything else below.

• Definite
• Terra Formars Gaiden: Asimov
• Terra Formars Gaiden: Keiji
• Neo Devilman (What's left)
• Saikano Gaiden
• Ishi no Hana
• Maybe
• Evangelion: Ayanami Raising Project (PC) - VNs are a drag, don't feel like it right now
• Devilman Saga - Scans are shite. Would have to edit them first.
• Infection - See below
• Cancelled
• Dead of the Brain - Was on my to-do list but some asshole has recently started on it. Tried to talk to him about it but he just was a dick and more or less told me to fuck off.

Now, that's my personal list. It's small but I'm not interested in much at the moment. Also, those Vietnamese guys I've been working with on Kyochuu Rettou have also asked me if I wanted to translate a new series that they will be releasing soon called Infection. However, the first chapter is about 60 pages long and I really don't want to translate it because of that. That, it's weekly (I think) and it doesn't look very good. Still, I'll keep it on a to-do list if nobody else takes it on. That said, I'm also open to suggestions so if you want you can mention something below and if it interests me (something that I require), I might translate it. Other than that, I'll see you next time. See ya!
