Good evening!

Alright tonight we've got the last part of Hayakawa Nojko's collection of original stories. Once again we follow a bunch of dudes around as they experience the fleeting, transient pleasures of high school life, tinged with a melancholic awareness that these carefree days will flourish, butterfly-like, for but a short time before they pass away forever. Or something. Anyway this chapter also features some special guest appearances from some characters you may know already, so please enjoy:

Anyway, as mentioned, this is the final and most recent of Nojiko's original doujins, this one having been published in 2013. If there's a more recent one we are not presently aware of it (please correct us, if you can). And once again we'd like to thank the scanner for actually letting us know that this compilation existed, and of course for then going to the trouble of scanning it.

And that's all for now, please join us next time for whatever our next thing is. Until we meet again, have a good one.

Good evening!

So we got us some mangas tonight. First up is something you haven't seen for a little while - the next instalment of Endou-kun no Jikken Note. We pick up from where we left off last time and find our friends in a contemplative mood. And that's about all really, best just to read it:

And continuing on the topic of Hayakawa Nojiko we've got the next one of her original story thingies. Canonically this comes after Road, Lead, Road and before Fuyu Kaze wa Dare ga Hiku, but as usual it's reasonably stand-alone, story-wise. This time the dudes get haircuts and some other things happen. And of course the art is top-notch, so enjoy:

Last up is the next Itsuka Tomodachi. Again we pick up from the previous chapter: the guys consider their feelings for each other some more, the plot advances a bit and there's a shocking twist at the end. So enjoy that also:

Anyway that's all for now, have a good week and we'll see you next time!

Good evening!

More Hayakawa Nojiko this week. You may remember that back in the Summer we released one of Nojiko's original doujin stories (please see that post for an explanation if you don't know what's going on here). These were all sold at Comikets long gone by, and at the time we were rather despairing of being able to find any of the older ones. Thankfully since then Nojiko has published a collection of those older stories, and thanks to the kind generosity of our friends we've been able to get hold of a copy. Tonight we've got the first story (from way back in 2010) and the others will follow in due course. We're very happy to be able to release this stuff and hopefully you'll enjoy reading it! Edit 16/12: fixed an obvious typo in both

The compilation has a couple new pages for the story we published in the Summer, and we've needed to make a few other changes to it, so you can download a Version 2 of it here:

Some boring organisational stuff: as we've said, these stories are set in the same continuity but don't really follow on from each other plot-wise, and there was a year between the publication of each one, so we've decided to name each story by its title rather than giving them chapter numbers. The compilation we're working from is called 'Imamade Kore Kara' and so we've called each story Part X of that, to have some kind of organisation.

Anyway that's all we've got this time around! There won't be a post this time next week (December 22nd) but if you can manage to get over here on the 25th we might have a nice surprise or two for you. So have a good week and we'll see you next time!

Good evening!

Alright so we do not have the next Kurayami. Please accept both our deepest contrition and our most vehement assertion that it'll turn up next time. If you're looking for something by Hayayawa Nojiko, however, than you won't be disappointed - for we have something quite interesting tonight. 

Basically, while she's not doing work for magazines, Nojiko publishes an irregular series of what would best be described as original doujins. They have a loose continuity between themselves, and are set, vaguely, in the same universe as her serialised stories (see if you can find the connection to Endou-kun in this one). These are pretty difficult to get ahold of, and we don't know when or if we'll find any of the others. This one here is the most recent one, but there's barely a story to follow, and after each little section there's a page which explains the characters and their relationships, so you shouldn't have too much trouble understanding what's going on. Anyway please enjoy, and if you could possibly help us out with finding scans of previous parts then please get in touch.
