Well, we gave in and asked for more time for My Monster Secret. We had to; we started working on Hozuki's Coolheadedness this weekend and it was taking kind of a long time, and then we got hit with a simulpub. There was no way we would finish it on time and get UQ Holder! in. But it was a really cool chapter of UQ Holder!, featuring a lot of our ( Read more... )

Oh my gosh, you guys. We're working on this chapter of UQ Holder! and everyone's favorite spell, Thousand Thunder Bolts, comes up. There were some other old spells that came up, but they were from the volumes of Negima that we never translated, so we went to a Negima! wiki to see if we could get a shortcut for spelling them properly, and while we ( Read more... )

Well, imagine our surprise when we checked Anime Expo's website today and discovered that Sora himself is going to be a guest of honor! We just posted on Facebook asking if we should meet him as Donald and Goofy or Chip and Dale. Whatever we choose, we'll probably wear the other set on another day, and just make it a Kingdom Hearts weekend. It's ( Read more... )

We weren't entirely planning on disappearing yesterday; it just kind of happened. The original plan was to see if we had any work to do, and if not, work on costumes. What actually happened was I've had something resembling a sinus infection for a while now, and yesterday morning it got annoying enough that we decided it was time to put some ( Read more... )

(I started writing this while we waited for children to show up for babysitting. The neighbors asked a grandparent to babysit tomorrow, but they wanted to get a head start on the moving tonight. I thought it was a good compromise, since we kind of ditched them on the day they need babysitters the most. Anyway, I almost finished this when the ( Read more... )

Okay, since we made such a big deal about it when we translated it (y'know, as far as big deals that we make go these days), I should probably explain the squeeing over UQ Holder! that happened. Y'know, now that the chapter's out so it's not a spoiler. (The chapter's free right now, so go! Go read it!)

( So about that chapter. )

We finally got a day to just focus on work today, but sadly we had other things to do (like go to the store), so we're not as caught up as I hoped we'd be. Oh well. I mentioned we'd have a Part 2 to our Negima! post, so let's do it!

( Part XXXVII-2: Negima the Omnibus )

Before we continue with our not-so-regularly schedule manga reminiscences, a brief note about the LDS General Conference that was this weekend. The second session had music by a family choir (not sure if that means, like, a huge extended family, or a bunch of small families), and it was really cute, so I wanted to share a couple of clips. First, ( Read more... )

We were totally about to post yesterday, but then Steve got back with the missionaries and it was time for dinner. After that, we took Logan out to look around Hancock Fabrics and then get some ice cream, and then we finally had a good opportunity to play Ace Attorney, so we jumped on it. It was a very happy chapter ( Read more... )

We got the Durarara!! song CD a long time ago, but we kept putting off listening to it. Part of it was because we didn't have time, and the other part of it was because there's a character who sings on it that we don't recognize. It seemed kind of odd that a character would have a voice and we still wouldn't recognize it, because if they have a ( Read more... )
