Umishi chapter 67

Uhh, what I going to say? Oh yeah, I'm putting the hiatus off for one more chapter so I can finish up volume 7, so expect chapter 68 in a few days. Also it's not going to be total blackout, I'll still try and release a chapter every month or so just to keep things flowing.

Umishi chapter 66

See, the number 66 is close to 666, maybe that's why I had so much trouble putting the chapter out. Photoshop CS2 finally quit without notice, forcing me to get CS3, which was all well and good except it makes my laptop run hotter than fire, which makes editing very uncomfortable. And that's not even counting the boredom and laziness I mentioned in my last post. So tired...

Umishi on hiatus?

I managed to get Photoshop back in line, though it still freezes every once in a while. Thing is, I'm bored and I don't feel like translating Umishi any more. For a while anyway. If anyone's willing to step up to the plate, I'll happily do the editing and you can do the translating. Otherwise after I release chapter 67 I'm going to take a break and work on something else for a while, until I get my Umishi mojo back.

Photoshop hates me

It won't run, but it won't let me uninstall it either. I hate you, Photoshop!

Haneda Airport, not Narita

I owe you guys an apology: I've been writing Narita Airport all along, but the airport in danger right now is actually Haneda Airport, also known as Tokyo International Airport. Subsequent chapters will refer to Haneda, and I might (might) redo the previous chapters to say Haneda, so don't be confused if you see Haneda from now on. Sorry for the mistake, that was careless of me.

Umishi chapter 64

*scritch scritch*
I'm bored.
I have a lot of work to do, and I've sworn off videogames until I get it done. As a result I'm not doing the work, and I'm not gaming either. But at least I can still edit manga, so it all works out. For you guys, anyway.

Umishi chapter 63

If you're ever at sea in Japan and you run into trouble, don't call Tokkyuu! They'll just sit around in their ship/helicopter and throw dumb ideas around while you suffer down below in your ship. Pfft, and they call themselves a "Special Rescue Team". Bunch of amateurs!

Umishi chapter 62, and No Side

It's been a while, huh? Hang in there, guys, the end of March is just around the corner, and then we'll have regular releases again (knock wood). IMO an arc hasn't really started until someone gets into the water, so as of this chapter, the LPG rescue arc has officially begun! Go, Sawa, go! And that other guy too.

Umishi chapter 62

Now, about No Side. I mentioned years ago that I might be interested in doing No Side at some point. Now that jfgslo has found raws, I can get started ...is what I want to say, but given how busy I am and how bad the raws are, I can't do both translation and editing by myself. The plan for now is to get two or three chapters translated by the end of January and then hunt for an editor skilled at handling double-page spreads to do all the dirty work. [At this point someone's going to suggest I do the same for Umishi. And I'm going to shoot that person. DON'T TAKE AWAY MY ONLY PLEASURE!]

Ideally I'd like the raws to be at least 1200 high, but a deal is a deal so we'll see what we can do.

Umishi chapter 61

I love how everybody in the manga instantly knows the destructive power of 1800m3 of LPG, it's so crazy. OMG, it's like a nuclear bomb! OMG! Do they go walking around town sizing up gas tanks and randomly measuring destructive powers or what? How do they know this stuff!?
