Monthlies (or the lack of, rather)

So first off, I just realized that in the last page of the most recent Historie chapter, it said it'd resume on 6/25, which means another break this month. FUCK. As for the other monthly Afternoon manga, a certain authority has prohibited me from releasing it on this blog. A search into the usual places might help alleviate your fixes however. So yeah, no releases at all in this "release-post." Sorry folks.

But in other news, get ready to see a whole volume of exciting ass-kicking adventures at Shu in Sangokushi v34!

    1. Oh, right. My typesetter is finally free to work again so we'll see releases real soon. Hurray!

    2. "get ready to see a whole volume of exciting ass-kicking adventures at Shu in Sangokushi v34"

      In before Joe gets one or two chapters only before full priority is given to that instead (since it happens every time)
      :(


      Also:

      What cal you tell us of that? It sounds like there's a story to be had there.

    3. Yeah sorry about failing to give as much focus to Joe. It's just that there's so much more dialogue in Joe compared to Sangokushi... And there's not really much of a story. Kodansha USA has that series licensed and they took standard measures.

    4. "A certain authority" probably refers to Kodansha Comics, a publishing company which licensed Vinland Saga and plans to release first volume in October this year.
      I always find funny that scanlators take care of making something popular, then companies profits out of that and they forbid further scanlations. I mean, yeah, scanlating licensed volumes is kind of asking for it but come on, these are just magazine chapters.

  2. Thanks a lot, Hox. With this extended break and 195 pages of magazine chapters, I assume that new volume of Historie will come out in a few months.

  4. "As for the other monthly Afternoon manga, a certain authority has prohibited me from releasing it on this blog."

    But... could you release it outside of this blog?

    Chapter 93 scanlations are out on a few websites, and it looks like your work Mr. Hox.

    So if you haven't dropped Vinland Saga, maybe you could just "anonymously" upload it to mangatraders?

    Or if you have dropped it, who's picked it up?

    1. I thought mangatraders already had the chapter by now.

    2. Mangatraders? Use Batoto instead.

    3. The ast I checked Hox mangatraders didn't have it, nor did anyplace else the chapter could actually be downloaded from.

  5. wew how long was this out? Turns out it was a good thing i decided to check the site after all. thanks for the release. I should probably read this in an aggregate site huh?

    PS: Someone should post it in Mangaupdates. I bet there are some people like myself who don't visit much aggregate sites and are still clueless about the release.

  6. thanks for the chapter, and it's a pity about the official release because they will take like 3 years for release vol.12 or more...

  7. Man this sucks, I cant get Vinland Saga anywhere in Finland.. Thanks for your work on this masterpiece, Hox

  8. On page 219 and 222, should it not be Einar instead of Arneis in the text bubbles?

    All the same, thanks for your work Hox

  10. As vinlands seems about to become licensed, will scans stop or will "someone" anonymously scan and up to batoto in the future aswell? ^_^ *hopefull*

  11. Thanks Hox!
    I was there when you released it on /a/; why just not put a link in your post to the archive of the thread next time you release it? First post in the thread had a download link, if I recall correctly.

  12. Hi Hox, I know you're preatty busy with all those project, but maybe you'd take a peek on TODA SEIJI 'Scientia' (スキエンティア) There are raws out there, and it might be an interesting little title. Give it a try in your spare time (of course if you have any) Regards
