Hey, it’s been a while…

Hello, it’s been a while… It’s been summer for a while and unfortunately I’m too lazy to scanlate. So… Yeah… I have no idea when I’ll come back, maybe if some translator is willing to partner up for me. Even korean translators are fine, since I’m up for translating manhwas. You could message my email at thesexfiend@live.com, anyways, hopefully I’ll stop being lazy before summer ends. But, yeah, have a great summer my few site visitors (lul surprised I have some <3)

):

Well it’s been several months since my last update and I have no idea where Thor went. Maybe it’s because I no longer go on MSN, but whatever. So apparently Onidere got picked up, so thats great. Maybe over summer i’ll get off my lazy ass and start scanlating again. But I think I forgot how to clean and have to go through trouble of downloading fonts again. ): Maybe someone would be kind enough to drop an awesome font pack for me? Anyways, thought an update should be made, since apparently there’s still at least a 100 visits to this site a day. Not sure why though… Anyways, じゃまた

Reason for Delay.

After a month or so I guess you guys need an update. Finals probably consumed and engulfed all of Thor’s free time and he’s been MIA. So, who knows when he’ll be free to make an update or do a release, hopefully soon though. Anyways just be patient the releases will eventually come (hopefully) when Thor is back/free.

Delay

Sorry for the delay guys, the end of the semester is coming up and I just got hit with so much homework I don’t know how I can possibly get all of it done in time :/

However, I’m slowly chipping away at this arc and will have it released sometime in the not too distant future. Again, sorry for the wait.

Onidere Ch.108-109

It’s become increasingly apparent to me that I’m gonna need a couple more days to finish the new arc. However, I promised a Thanksgiving release and dammit I will stick to that! (It’s still Thanksgiving day in my timezone, sorry if I missed yours).

These two chapters will complete the Invincible Mother arc and Tadashi will once again move up a notch on the “Not a bitch” scale by doing some good things. Expect yet another batch release of several chapters within the next few days as I shall be working on them as much as possible

Happy Thanksgiving!

Saya-chan has already made me delicious (deadly) food, maybe she’ll make you some too?

Quick update

Hey guys, with the next few chapters we’re gonna begin a new arc in Onidere. It lasts about 5 or so chapters, so I wanna release the whole thing in a batch. I have a couple chapters done now and I’m planning on releasing by Thanksgiving day so expect that for a nice holiday gift.

Take it easy all, cya when I post the release.

Onidere Ch.105-107

Soo…. I see that you guys have noticed that CXC release chapters 105-106 a few days ago, yeah, I don’t care; I told them it was fine for them to release it because… well this may have a worse effect than a better one, but just to be honest with you guys, those chapters were “translated” about 2 months ago or something like that. Now before you grab your pickforks and torches or whatever weapons you choose for your angry mob, please note that translated is in quotes. The reason for this is… well.. it was a really really poor translation (looks to me like they got it redone at least at some parts) and was basically unusable without have tons of notes saying “I think this refers to this…”

I actually had a minor debate on whether to do 105 and 106 myself, but my translator had already done the translations so I decided to (and I think they’re better, but that may just be me). So yeah, they’re here along with a completely new never before been translated to English and released online chapter!

By the way, it’s looking like we’re getting to more… plot? It’s hard to say it’s plot as there’s little that can be defined as plot in this series other than Tadashi trying to convince others that he’s dating Saya and have everyone accept it (I personally think a kiss would get the point across but that just makes too much sense…). But yeah, we meet Saya’s mom and stuff starts to happen (and continues to happen in future chapters, yay)

Anyway, here are your chapters, no preview pic since it’s a batch release but you’ll see everything soon enough!

Onidere Ch.104

Hey guys, sorry for the wait, I had this done a few days ago, but had to wait for contact from the translator about a couple things. Anyway, this marks the beginning of the long climb back to catching up to the current raws (I believe chapter 124 comes out this week). Please don’t be too mad if I take more than a couple days to get more chapters out, the translator and I are both in college and have work to do other than this, but I want to get as many out as fast as possible (cause I wanna read them too) so I really will do my best (this marks the end of playing games for me for quite some time then).

Anyway, yeah, enough with excuses and my personal life; I’m sure you guys are really excited for this so I’ll stop my rambling and let you get to reading it. Please direct any questions or comments to… well me, Sexyboi no longer works on anything and has little to no information on what’s going on with the project.

I like lolis, but a tsundere with large breasts is fine too

MF By choosing this link, you show that you don’t care if I get any rewards and just want the release (Like I care (ΘεΘ)

Project update

Alright guys, best news I’ve been able to give in a long long time. I have a translator, and he’s very fucking good. He’s already sent me 2 chapters of translations, and they were both understandable and worded quite well. Also, since I found the guy and CXC didn’t help with it (or even respond to any of my emails), I may just break the joint.

Now that I finally found the guy, we can get back to updates and hopefully catch up. Gimme a couple days (I have a good bit of college work to do this weekend) and I’ll start updating. Alright everyone, till the next update, take it easy.

For those who applied.

I, finally checked my email after a month and I noticed several applications. Sadly, I can’t reply to them as I delete them (with my other 300 spammed email I get T_T) also it would be best if you email Thor. (If Thor would post his email in the comment/edit this post, it would be great!) So bother him if you want to apply! Off to play moar sc2.

Current Status — On Hold

I’m not dead, but I might as well have been. I’m just really trying to sort things out with this project.

The way things are now, I’m looking for a competent translator that is willing to go fast (as the previous one quit because of personal reasons). And yes, I’ve checked with more than just CXC for that.

I currently have a few people looking for one for me, and I may call in a favor from a friend or two. Cross of CXC is also looking for a fast translator as I told him that the new one HAS to be able to catch up to the current raws within ONE WEEK ONLY of starting. That way, we’ll be completely caught up within a week of getting the translator because I’ll make 100% sure that all the jobs get done.

Sorry about no updates or anything, but finding a translator is a bitch, finding a fast/good translator is hell. I could make more excuses, but just blame me for not getting one and making him work yet, I probably could have if I searched harder. Anyway, the next release should be one that will catch us up to the current raws, look forward to it; back to the search…

Onidere Ch.103

Slow releasing is slow… Sorry everyone, final projects are taking a hell of a lot more work than I thought they would so I’ve basically had no time to do anything else. Luckily, today is the last day of finals and then I have a couple weeks of break time from school before the next semester starts (I get to start Japanese classes, yay~~). So in that break time I should be able to catch up on everything that’s piled up (for here and elsewhere…) and happiness will be had by all.

Anyway, got a new chapter of Onidere here for you. This one’s about Mitsuki’s past. If you’re like me and ever wish for more loli in Onidere (not that Saya isn’t cute enough) then this chapter’s for you.

Yes yes yes! A thousand times Yes!

Onidere Ch.101-102

Sorry for the holdup on this. There were a few discrepancies I caught in the translations so it took a little longer than it should have. But anyway, faster than the last release, ay? I’ll try to keep it up, but finals week is coming up for my college so I may not be able to, sorry in advance if I can’t.

Anyway, please enjoy more of Saya’s cuteness, and her father’s badassery (`･ω･´)

Status Update

So… following our one year anniversary (happy birthday to sexyboi scans btw), I’ve received some goodish news…

I am the typesetter for Onidere (at least for the time being). If anyone wishes to celebrate, you may because that means as long as there are translations, there will be releases.

Now, one thing to remember, I do have other responsibilities (College, work, girls, reading manga, watching anime, Dance in the Vampire Bund, random Redhawk stuff, YQII stuff, Brolen stuff, artwork, random commissions, and Starcraft 2 has been taking up a good bit of my time too….) and it may take me a little while to catch up to the current chapters, however, I sure as hell won’t take 2 months for 2 chapters (ΘεΘ;)

Anyway, I hope to catch up to the latest chapter within 2 weeks (as long as there are translations of course…) and then it doesn’t matter who typesets after that, we should stay caught up (because otherwise I will have to kill them).

Questions, comments, concerns? Just post and I’ll address them.

1 Year Anniversary!

It’s our one year anniversary of our first release! I remember the days when I was first learning to clean for the first release. Lots of things happened from that day. Like trying to do daily releases, trying to find cleaners, doing joints, trying to find more cleaners, doing question posts, getting over 2000 visitors in a day, and trying to do new projects. Eventually, around November maybe, I became extremely lazy and had Thor to do everything. The visitors to this site eventually died down from old 2,000 to merely 300 (if were lucky) since I used to have a waiting policy on online readers, so everybody visited here. Evans (the old translator) eventually went on hiatus, and Thor started doing joint with CXC. I haven’t done anything for very long time now (since Thor can do everything). I’ve been doing other things like playing HoN (Heroes of Newerth), WC3 (Warcraft 3), SC2 (Starcraft 2) <3, and of course owning people in Connect 4 on omgpop.com (On the leaderboards) Times have passed and it’s amazing that this group is still going because of Thor. Anyways, Happy 1 Year Anniversary! Who knows if i’ll ever do anything again :X and maybe pick up a new project (if there’s translations), but who knows! Let’s see if we get this group to 2 years!

PS: On recruitment page, don’t bother emailing/msning me since i’ve been lazy to get on. Best luck is to get Thor MSN and email him. If Thor posts his email here of course.

This is disappointing…

I am continuously making attempts to help get this damn project on track, moving forward, and progressing at a good speed. But, unfortunately, every time I’m told “We’re gonna do it now, we’ve got time now, don’t worry, it should be done in a couple days…” I end up disappointed and kicking myself for believing it. Then after (finally) getting a release out, CXC stiffs me yet again and doesn’t give me any notice at all that the chapters are done and being released, regardless of having the ability to contact me easily, and I only know it’s out when a friend tells me, “Good job on the cleans for Onidere, but it took a while to get out…”

I understand having real life issues (I’m a little swamped with stuff right now and will take a bit to get some projects done), but it has been over a month, I have offered to do any work if others cannot, and I have been told that releases will happen and then they don’t far too many times.

My patience has worn out and I am giving CXC an ultimatum. If they will not accept, I will no longer consider them for collaboration and will do whatever I need to to get a new translator and get this project on track. If CXC will not allow me to do all aspects of this project other than translating then they will no longer be part of this project. I’ll give you an update when they give me a response.

Here’s chapters 99.5 and 100. This should be a celebratory and happy moment with the awesome 100′th chapter released, but CXC has made it impossible for me to properly celebrate it. Enjoy the release.

Chapter 99.5: MU || MF
Chapter 100: MU || MF

So I heard you liek faster releases…

/me checks my watch…

It’s still not as fast as I want it to be, but it’s a start! So I have a release for you all, Onidere Chaps. 98-99

Some big things happen and there’s cuteness. Read to find out. I’ll work on getting the next release to be even sooner! (Hmm, maybe catch up all the way in the next release…?)

So, no more trivial dribblings for me, read the update bitches!

Onidere Ch.96-97

Well, I noticed a whole lot of posts since the last time I’ve been here, NINJA’s being the most interesting. I’ll get into contact with him very soon and discuss some things.

In the meantime, here’s a release for you all.
Chapter 96: Saki works up some courage in this one with the help of the love witch.
Chapter 97: New characters are introduced! Still remains to be seen how pertinent they’ll be, but at least one of them is important.

Again, I deeply apologize for how long the releases are taking (especially because I like this series and hate waiting to be able to read it).

Chapter 97: MU MF

Onidere Ch.94-95

Huh? Wha-…. Is this what I think it is? New Onidere? Is it even possible? Yes, after much waiting there is now new Onidere. Now we just have to wait for….who knows how long for the next few chapters….yeah…

So, these two chapters are the first using my new actions (tell me what you think) and introduce a new (kinda) character to our beloved family of moe girls and spineless guys, and her name is great XD. Unfortunately, no Saya in these chapters, just Angie (I want my delinquent girl!!!) Oh, and I fully support the random comments left by KNK on certain pages….cause I feel the same way XD

So, here are chapters 94 and 95, now I’ll go clean some chapters and hope for quicker updates…

Chapter 94: MU MF

Chapter 95: MU MF

If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to ask, I’m happy to answer anything.

Concerning new releases…

Alright, to everyone who’s been waiting impatiently, here’s some info on new releases. And to everyone who’s been waiting patiently, what’s wrong with you?! How can you be waiting patiently for so long?!

*Note: If you’ve been paying attention these past months then skip the next few paragraphs to the next asterisked sentence*

Ahem, now then, here’s how we’ve been handling the scanlating in the past. Sexyboi or I (usually I) would get the raws and clean them, then he or I (again usually I) would typeset the cleans using translations provided on Mangahelpers by Evans.

Now, when Evans stopped providing translations we needed a new translator. CXC scans stepped up. So now they do the translating. However, there is also a typesetter there, who wants to work on Onidere, so he is taking that job.

*Explanation of current scanlating process starts here*

So we get to the present. I download and clean the raws, then send the cleans to CXC. They are supposed to translate, proofread, and typeset.

Usually I have the raws cleaned and sent to CXC within a day or 2 of their release. Then I start to wait patiently for the release.

I sent cleans for chapters 94 and 95 on MARCH 25 and have not heard back from them with a progress update, a request for more cleans, or a request for helping typesetting. Generally I’m on Cross’s case to hurry up, but lately I’ve been busy with commissions and such, so it hadn’t crossed my mind.

So, for everyone eagerly wanting more Onidere, most of the time when you’re waiting for a release it’s because of CXC Scans.

This sounds like I’m casting blame, and yes I am. It may make me sound a bit dickish, but sometimes you have to be that way to get results.

I understand that they have other projects and real lives, but from what I’ve heard the chapters are already translated and proofed, so the hold-up is either the typesetter or a QC. Both jobs I have offered numerous times to do to speed up releases and have been turned down.

So anyone who has a bone to pick, or wants a release should head over there and rant to them! RANT I SAY! Make them fear the repercussions of slow releases!

Now that my rant’s over…happy Easter everyone, expect a new Vampire Bund from me released over at Redhawk soon.
