Happy Valentine's Day~. To celebrate, I decided to translate this cute short comic about how Ecilan became the Ice Knight. Obviously, a comic about our precious baker fits Valentine's, right...? Enjoy. XD (I'm several hours late, but here it is~~)

This comic is drawn by Ya Sha and comes bundled with the Legend of Sun Knight novel, V5. The binding is very stiff, so it doesn't make for very good scans. This was the best I could do! If you enjoyed this, short comics come bundled with V4, V5, and V6. They might eventually go out of stock now that LSK has a new edition, so if you're considering buying yourself a copy, sooner is probably better!

Please do not repost these scans anywhere else.

Translation of Rule 19 from the Legend of Sun Knight manhua. Scattered with my commentary! This is not a scanlation, nor is it a replacement for buying the actual manhua. I cleaned the images but not very well. =P

Rule 19 covers V2C8-V2C9 from the novel.

Rule 17 and Rule 18 translations.

Here's the translation for Rule 18~. Again, scattered with my commentary. Not a replacement for a scanlation or buying an actual copy. Please squeal over this with me? ♥

Since I'm currently on a Female Warrior kick as you can see from my changed header... =P

Picspam ahead. Rife with spoilers! Though... there really isn't much to spoil, as the actual story hasn't even been written yet. You will be spoiled about the two short prequels though! (like about which characters show up and how they relate to each other). Most of the characters below actually haven't shown up yet. It's just that Yu Wo already asked the artist (Wu Ling) to design the characters. I feel like we have more complete designs here than we even have for the 38th generation. XDDD If you just want to admire the drawings, the first part of the post is mostly spoiler-free, if you don't count seeing the designs for the knights as a spoiler. XD I'll keep my commentary to a minimum in the first half and let you make your own conclusions.

I feel kind of bad about all the hype because the second prequel might be a bit of a letdown the higher you raise your hopes... Since really, nothing happens yet. XD;;

Last and final teaser for the Legend of Sun Knight spin-off has been posted! I grinned so much from this. XDDD The actual book should be released soon. I can't wait!

Went to watch The Hunger Games last weekend. My heaaaart. Now I want to read the books, except I have A Game of Thrones to finish first. (I haven't gotten far with it yet). I ended up browsing Wikipedia about The Hunger Games. I didn't read too closely, but I still spoiled myself quite a bit.

I've also been slowly reading Ooku, a manga series I borrowed from gem2niki. It's fairly different from what I usually read. Series is about an alternate Japan where a disease killed off most of the men, so women ended up taking over men's positions. Ooku, which is a harem of women serving the shogun, is a harem of men serving a female shogun in this series. The story-telling is interesting... it doesn't focus on any single character but rather follows relevant people through history, so certain characters get the spotlight for a volume or so before a new character is featured.

funpotexchange has started posting! \o/ The fic I wrote completely slayed me. I was aiming to write one pairing, but the result turned out to be a completely different pairing because to get to the pairing I planned to write would have taken three times the length of the current fic. I'm not completely pleased with how the fic turned out (it feels very awkward to me, and more telling than showing...) but I hope it still has its redeeming points. :3;; I liked the idea a lot, so I might even flesh it out some more in the future with a focus on different characters in the same universe. I can't wait to see what other people have written, and what my gift will be! :D

Mm, Sket Dance~. I was looking forward to a new opening this week, but there was no opening! Did they not make it in time? XD;; I'm excited that there'll be another year of Sket Dance~. Housuke (an owl) was so cute in episode 52! As for new anime, I watched the first episode of Uchuu Kyoudai and Hiiro no Kakera. Haven't watched the first episode of Kimi to Boku season 2 yet. Gonna watch more stuff before I report back about them!

I'm still playing catch up with colors_tcg. Next will be fanbook. :x And then writing more of Bittersweet Sweetness!

But before that, have some scans! My previous photos of these were terrible, so I scanned them all instead. First up is Legend of Sun Knight scans.


SO this was Adair! I laughed so much when I actually saw this in full size because I totally thought he was holding a shield... except he's actually holding blueberry pie. And saying "Captain, I managed to buy your blueberry pie!"

( ridiculous amount of LSK scans )
