The L5 Project

If anyone one of you wants to help or just hang-out just click on the link

There's is only 2 chapters of the Ushiro manga from Hero's Magazine due to the artist being sick

There's also the Somber God of Death Manga and that run is completed.

And thus this is the L5 Projects first completed work in 2 years. Luckally some LBX manga is in the works so stay tuned

End of a Tough Battle indeed

Just one more to go.

the Chapter for the series is here

Well, close to a month ago Mangadex got a massive DMCA wave that affected alot of series, sadly the L5 Project was also affected (LBX Wars and Ni no Kuni were affected). As of now I'll continue to upload to Mangadex cause Inazuma Eleven stuff is not affected, and it's easy to use. You can still read LBX Wars either on my discord server (Here) or Bato.to (PLEASE USE ADBLOCK FOR THAT SITE) As for Ni no Kuni, if I ever get a JTL and Redrawer for it I'll upload it to Comick (a Mangadex Agg) since that's where the scanlators are and you can download chapters on it until a true successor to Mangadex comes to the surface. (tho honestly you have a better chance of Kodansha comics picking Ni no Kuni up at this rate, just request it in the forums)

Anyway here's the chapter and Kidou's message for my views on the situation

Keh

The title card goes hard

I recently got the script for the next chapter, so actually fininshing the series is actually in the cards. Recruiting JTLs, Redrawers, and Physical Scan Cleaners, not so much. (Please Join)

Wanna do a Sing A Long

Well today is my birthday and to celebrate this special occasion i'll just the final chapter of Baku Gaidenshuu. Idk if I count it as a completed work since volume 2 switches to Strikers content and is a whole other thing, and I just want to complete a series for 2024. I'm saying this to make myself feel better.

Anyway, I'm just not having any luck with recruiting JTLs right now and I'm feeling dissolution from the scanlation scene, so if you want to help make Level-5 manga like Inazuma Eleven, small chance of it has to get an official release, Viz Media and others have forums for manga suggestions so here they are

Viz Media

Yen Press

Seven Seas

For Ni no Kuni:

Kodansha

Don't this dosen't mean I've giving up completely, it's just that if any of them would be official, then it would be a huge load off my plate.

Just one more chapter to go and volume 1 is done

So where have I been.

I've been busy with other scan groups, and I've been researching a deep rabbithole in Kodomo and early Shonen manga. Took me awhile to finally finish that.

Well, I've been thinking about stuff and after watching a DYNG episode on Ken Sugimori which featured a chapter I typesetted for Snow Tiger Scans (Chapter 3 by the way), I'm thinking of dumping my original plan of saving it of until every Level 5 (excluding Manga 5 stuff, I'm outsourcing it) manga is done. I'm gonna do the Birth of Inazuma Eleven Manga earlier than planned. Cause I'm 30, might be suffering from a premature mid life crises, and I want to read it before the end of my lifespan.

Also I'm setting up a new Website to upload translated novels if I ever find one interested in doing them. Problem is Wordpress aint what it used to be creative wise, I might try to build one from scratch from NeoCities but I lack creativity and get overwhelmed easily and Squarespace is too professional, so far Blogger is the way to go. I just wish there was a Mangadex version for novels thats all.

So um... Here's Fudo dog

Mangadex

Come hang out on Discord

The official licensors had their two chances to make an official english version. When the movie was first on Netflix and CrossWorlds debut, and I'm not sure if there's gonna be a third time. (Ni no Kuni I and II on Xbox in english).

Now I'm like Screw it, if there not gonna tackle it I will. How I got the translator and Redrawer is a funny story. There was this reddit post on Scanlationdrama and there is a post about Pair of 2+'s handling of Blue Lock (an already licensed manga) and I'm complaining that Inazuma Eleven is a better manga and if there put there efforts to an unlicensed manga, it would of been done by now.

than I got a comment from the Leader of ProjectVinlad and says that they can help me out. I went to the groups server, showed the manga I want to work on, the translator choose Ni no Kuni so hear we are.

Note: the colored pages come from the Magazine version (here) so it's a mix of that and the digital tank version. (There are links on where to buy it on the left side of the Mangadex page) and yes these are only colored pages ever sadly. If you want an official release go spam Seven Seas Surveys with this manga as this is the closest thing I can think of besides scouring the internet with their e-mails.

I outsourced this work to Peace Scans for awhile now due to the combo of being too adult for my group, frustration with recruiting JTLs and Redrawers in general and slight burn out.

This Manga perfectly incapsulates the troubled state of the game, all in one book. The author is known for drawing straight up porn so yeah.

This is a joint between two scan groups [BOIL] who did the redraws. Pyroxene Scans who provided the RAWS, leveling and translation, and this very group as I did the cleaning and typesetting.

By far the most taxing thing I ever did that is Level-5 related, and I own a similar GO 4koma but with Keshins (some are even in Color)
