Akuno Himitsu Kessha 1

So taketori found this and it looked interesting, so I decided to pick it up.  This won't be a "regular" release.  It's more like a "whenever we get around to it" type project.  It's 1 volume long and it reminds me a little of Watamote so far.

Akuno Himitsu Kessha (Evil Secret Society) is 4-koma about Akuno Asahi.  Akuno appears to be a beautiful and smart high school girl who would go to any length to help her classmates and teachers.  However, hidden in her heart, she harbors a desire to be the leader of an evil secret society.  She was starting to think that her dream would never be fulfilled, but then one day she meets her truant classmate, Hitoyoshi.

Kotoura-san 7 and Help Us!

Oh Buchou, how cliche.

The chapter in which Buchou proposes to Moritani...

So here's chapter 7.  There's only the second omake left in volume 1.  Yay!  We'd like to get a translator for Kotoura-san.  If we don't find one, you can expect long gaps between chapters and probably a hiatus.  You don't need to be some god tier translator, obviously.  I'm not that great myself, so if you're interested and feel up to the challenge, send me an e-mail or drop by our irc.

Aiura 10

Chapter 10, yay!  I really have nothing to say here, except we're looking for a translator for Kotoura-san.

Aiura 9

We're currently looking for a translator for Kotoura.  Let us know if you're interested.

Kotoura should be up next.  There's the next chapter and then an omake.  After that, Kotoura goes on hold until we get a translator for it.

Help us! And Gakkou no Sensei

First, a big thank you to Zeruel for joining us as a typesetter.  He put up with a lot of my bad cleaning and laziness.  Without him this release was probably another week away.






Second, we need your help!  Misora commands it!

• For Kotoura:
• 1 Translator
• 1 Cleaner (This includes redrawing)
• For Gakkou no Sensei:
• 1 Cleaner (This includes redrawing)

Experience with a previous group is not required, but knowing how to clean, redraw, and generally know how to work Photoshop is necessary.  

Until we get the proper staff we need, releases will continue to be slow.

If you'd like to help out, please e-mail me at Muirasan@gmail.com, reply here, or join our irc at irc.irchighway.net #arascans.  

Gakkou no Sensei 7

Shitty cleaning.  AM did a good job, but the pages I did are pretty terrible.  If you want some quality Gakkou no Sensei, please help us out and join as a cleaner.

Help us! And Aiura.

So it's come to this again.  I'm super busy with everything and our cleaner is MIA.  Taketori will soon be busy as well; we need people to help us out.  We need the following:

• Typesetters
• Cleaners

Cleaners, you can choose to work on Gakkou no Sensei, Kotoura-san, or both.  Please know how to clean.  You don't need actual experience, but I don't have time to teach you how to do it properly either. 

Typesetters, you can choose to work on Aiura, Kotoura-san, Gakkou no Sensei, or both.  Same thing here, you don't need actual previous experience, but you must know what to do and how to do it and do it well.

Please leave a comment here or reach me at muirasan@gmail.com.  You can also join #arascans at irc.irchighway.net, someone is usually idling there.  To connect easily, use the web irc tab at the top of the page.  Or just click here.

I cannot stress enough how important it is for us to get help if you want to read any of the series in a timely manner.  As it is now, I've just started cleaning Gakkou no Sensei.  It's been stalled there for a bit.

Anyway, the release:

TL Notes

Pg. 11
Buchou talks about ESP software.  The text reads
〇インド 〇ーカー.  It might say "Mind Maker".  The only software I could find is in image to the left (Click the image for a larger version to read the text).  I won't provide a direct link, because obvious scam and they don't deserve anything.  Still, I could be wrong about the whole thing.  I probably am.  If anyone knows what it really is referencing, please leave a comment or
e-mail.


Pg. 12

Heroes:
Heroes was a TV series featuring a cast of people who discovered they had supernatural powers.  Two of the main characters were Japanese; man named Hiro and his friend Ando.





Scanners:
A movie about a guy with ESP hunting others like him
The famous head exploding scene was referenced in the Kotoura-san anime.  There he successfully bent a spoon, if I remember correctly.

The Girl Who Leapt Through Time:
A girl learns she can leap backwards in time.  It was a originally a novel by Yasutaka Tsutsui.  It spawned a whole bunch of adaptations including multiple live action films, animated films, manga, and a TV series.  You'll find references to it everywhere.

 Mountain Mushrooms.

Village Bamboo Shoots

They really are the same things.
