I think Kim and I and our typesetter Liz did a great job on it. It's a wonderful book, and Kim and I worked hard to give it its full expression in English :)
So here's how the reviewing works: let me know wh ich one you want to review first and give me your e-manga e-mail (the one you signed up with), in PM of course. Then I'll pass it to Kim, and Kim will request the book for you. Someone at DMP will put a copy in your account that will be there for there months.
As for reviewing, write the kind of review you like to read or that you find helpful. That's the advice I always give. I'm no expert on reviews myself, but everyone knows what they like, right? So if everyone writes the kind of reviews they like, there'll be something for everyone.
YES! I read Man of Tango by Tetsuzoh Okadaya. I thought it was wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, because of how the tango was portrayed and became part of the story and because of the passionate Angie, the tanguero. There were delicious sex scenes as well. It seems Okadaya sensei was really invested in this work when you read her personal notes. I just loved it.
I also recently read two works by Sakae Kusama over at SuBLime (digital only I believe), The Match Seller and Lost Letter. There was something so alluring in the four main characters and in the post WWI setting. I have a soft spot in my heart for Sakae Kusama after translating Metro Dog, and this short series really hit the spot. It was very different from Metro Dog but still really human and thoughtful (more sex than Metro Dog though!).
Aww, wow, I'm sure you all did a fantastic job, I seriously can't stop flailing about it!!
Ahhh I see, okay, hmm, uh oh, I hate to say it but I've had some problems with emanga before... and now, my actual username and password don't even work anymore... can't even access what I purchased before so this is a bit tricky for me.
I did create another account because of that (but obviously, I lost the books I purchased...).
Sounds perfect, I think I can do that!
I knooow! Okadayah-sensei does some amazingly sexy real men, what's not to love about those big burly sexy men! I only read the first few pages so thanks for reminding me, I'll get right to it!:)
Lovely, I do love Sakae-sensei as well, the first story I've ever read of sensei's was "The Constellation Shine in the Sky" and "Carnivorous Animal's Table Manners". My favorite story of hers will always be "Beautiful Days" from the former tank with the childhood friends and buckteeth uke, haha.
Okay then, I will PM you about the specs, heh. Can't wait!XD
Yes, I transtlated Metro Dog. In case you didn't know, I was the founder of The Moon in a Box and did most of the translating until Abscondite started hiring translators to help us :) Wow that was an amazing experience.

I'm thinking about reconstituting it, but maybe it's better just to scanlate casually, like this.
I like smutty ones too! Oh-ho-ho! I really enjoyed doing Bespoke.
