State of the Scanlation - Feb 2022

We still have a number of projects on the go.  We have some chapters to release, and yes, we are still working on the series that we've been working on.

Pace : Back in December, just after getting my second shot of Pfizer vaccine, I succumbed to Covid.  Weird, I survived a whole year (two?) without a single symptom, manage to stay 6 feet or more away from others, even while running a home business.  It knocked me out for over THREE WEEKS.  Good news is I'm finally starting to get some of my strength and energy back so I should be able to start focusing on scanlation again.

As long as the translations keep coming.

Reader: Now it seems that the next order of business to update on is the reader.  The reader is down.  We where sharing another groups server and that person has decided essentially to retire anything scanlation related on their systems.  Our web admin is still looking for a solution however.

In the meantime, we will continue to post our releases on Mangadex as our 'official' reader site

Recruitment & Staff: We still need volunteers.  We need essentially all positions, especially translators, proofreaders/quality checkers AND redrawers.  These are key to continue and even build our pace up once again.  Experience is helpful, but some things we HELP you along with. More information on the recruitment pages.

Questions? Comments? Volunteering? Drop into our discord and strike up a chat.

State of Scanlation June 2021

It's been a long year between COVID19, and the slow down of certain content creation across the globe.

If you've noticed we've been pretty quiet the last couple months, don't worry however we've been slowly working behind the scenes on most of the series you've seen released in the last year.

We have pending chapters of Brave Star Romantics, Kaisei no Caricature, Gun-Ota,  Kirei ni Shitemoraemasuka, Kunoichi no Ichi and others.

We HAVE added two translators, working on Kaisei and Brave Star.  I'm hoping to have one chapter of each released by end of the month, and more for our Anniversary in July.

In the meantime, we need REDRAWERS and PROOFREADERS to help push them along.

We are also in the midst of rebuilding our reader.  Please be patient with us as we do so.

There have been some slight modifications with Ikaros our discord file serving bot.  The only thing that's really 'changed' is that each download link expires at 5 minute increments (on the 5's.  ie 7:00, 7:05, 7:10 and so forth)

Need a list of files available?  visit #Da-Bot
There are only two commands.  !list (!list [series]) and !get [Series#].

The new Ikaros has the same triggers for the most part.  Example. If you want do download Freezing chapter 224.  You'd type !get fz224

It's as simple as that.  Use the same code only preface it with !get and drop the exclamation mark.  It might also take 24 hours for the bot to pickup the files in discord.

State of Scanlation June 2020

The last year has been a difficult time.  Between COVID and life in general, various translators, redrawers as well as a typesetter or two have 'retired' in one way or another.

While we do need translators and Redrawers the most, we've been working on another small project.

Most of you know that the only way to grab the finished files are through irc.  Which, for the most part, its nearly dead.  Gecko has desired for a while now to kill the irc bot and provide files via another forum.  With that said, he's managed to succeed for the most part.

Ikaros the bot is now available on our discord server.  It's really rather simple on how to grab your file.

There are only two commands.  !list and !get.

The new Ikaros has the same triggers for the most part.  Example. If you want do download Freezing chapter 224.  You'd type !get fz224

It's as simple as that.  Use the same code only preface it with !get and drop the exclamation mark.  It might also take 24 hours for the bot to pickup the files in discord.

Please note, the download links DO expire.

Please remember, this is currently beta, and if it fails, you'll need to notify Gecko or another admin.

State of Scanlation Sept 2019

It’s been a while since I updated.

We’ve had some more issues this year.  If you noticed we where unable to give the celebration in July that you are accustomed to.  We need Redrawers for the work we have now, and some other staff to pick up other series'

Sword Oratoria is slowly moving along.  We have redraws that need done to release at least one chapter.  We may drop it after we release the work we've done so far.

Danmachi While we have more we want to do, the translator is inundated with real life.   Unfortunately we might need to drop this.  It also seems another group has picked it up.

Mushoku Tensei is coming along.  We have at least one chapter in quality control, and one in redraws.

Hare kon’s is done in Japan, however we are now working on the 17th volume.  The pace has slowed but we continue.

Hanebado dropped.

Yuizaki-san is complete in Japan, There are only a couple chapters left.  Hopefully the translator will get hooked on something else and we'll work on that as well.

Freezing.  It seems like it’s been forever since we started on this, and while we are a couple chapters behind, it can’t really be helped.  Translator is infected with a real life. ;)  Also, it seems to be on hiatus yet again in Japan, this time the artist.

365 days without her (Sekirei 365), Dropped.  The official release was out long ago.  Go buy it please.

Kunoichi no Ichi, the typesetter disappeared on us.  After a short conversation with a sniper we have it back.  I have a number of chapters in progress and its waiting mainly on qc and redraws.

Youkai Shoujo STILL continues to be typeset. We have ALL scripts til the end.  We could use help in proofreading AND redrawing the series however.

Gun X Clover, we are dedicated to finishing the series.  The next chapter will be out within the next couple weeks with luck.  Typesetter got locked down with real life (and does Youkai Shoujo).

Too Much Pain, We desperately need a translator for this series if we are going to continue it.  The original translator isn't responding to pleadings!

Gun-Ota ga Mahou~, is waiting on redraws qc and typesetting.  We have up to c40 approx so far so expect more soon.  The redraws tend to be annoying on this series.  The moment you think the are easy, wham, the mangaka hits you hard with them.


That’s most of the updates.  I’m working on a few others this weekend so hopefully more releases this week will include Happy Negative Marriage, UsoPara, and Kami-sama Drop.

State of Scanlation Nov 2018

Progress is slowly being made on multiple chapters.  All series except Shield Hero are actively being worked on.


The IRC bot and the reader site seem to be back online.  Thanks to the webmaster.

State of Scanlation 2018 - September

It’s been a while since I posted anything new.

We’ve had some issues since July, and we are slowly solving them.

Sword Oratoria is slowly moving along.  We have redraws that need done to release at least one chapter.

Danmachi is Has one more chapter left of the scripts we had.  A potential new translator has joined us and I hope to have a couple chapters by the end of the first week of October.

Shield Hero looks like the joint we had with LHT is over.  They’ve decided they can do it faster without us.  We will still consider doing our own version.

Mushoku Tensei is coming along.  We have at least one chapter in quality control, and one in redraws.

Hare kon’s 15th volume is nearly complete and will be moving onto the 16th.  Regular releases should stay with every Monday.

Hanebado is still being translated at his time.  It’s a wordy series so it takes the TLer some time to get terms correct.  Yes, we see another group is trying to snip it.

Yuizaki-san is complete in Japan, and we are finishing up the current volume, translations for the last volume have already stated rolling in.

Freezing.  It seems like it’s been forever since we started on this, and while we are a couple chapters behind, it can’t really be helped.  Translator is infected with a real life. ;)

365 days without her (Sekirei 365), our translator with the joint group got busy and we’ve not heard from them.  The joint group also doesn’t seem to have a spare translator.  If your willing to help out on this please apply.

Kunoichi no Ichi, is also in progress still.  We have 2-3 chapters in progress.  One more near ready for release.

Youkai Shoujo continues to be typeset. We have ALL scripts til the end.  We could use help in proofreading the series however.

Gun X Clover, we are dedicated to finishing the series.  The next chapter will be out within the next couple weeks with luck.  Redraws and QC.

Too Much Pain, we took a little longer than expected getting this series cleaned and typeset.  The translator is no longer responding so we could use a translator interested in the series to continue.

Gun-Ota ga Mahou~, is waiting on redraws and typesetting.  We have up to c30 approx so far so expect more soon.  The redraws on the next couple chapters ARE a bitch.


That’s most of the updates.  I’m working on a few others this weekend so hopefully more releases this week will include Happy Negative Marriage, UsoPara, and Kami-sama Drop.

State of Scanlation 2018 - July

Anniversary


We've been working at scanlating series for 3 years and it's been a blast.  Over 530 releases, and 44 series in that time.

The team hopes you've enjoyed the releases in the last week and look forward to another year of striving for higher quality releases.

As always, we are looking for volunteers to work as Translators, Proofreaders, Redrawer/Cleaners and of course Typesetters.  (No, I ain't greedy)

Hopefully in the next year you'll see some stagnant series begin to see more releases. 

Donations

For those that have not noticed, I've added a page for donations.  The funds from this will be used primarily for RAWs.  I've decided to use paypal to hold the money and setup 'donation pools' so the funds can be kept for the project in question.  For series that are ending soon, the funds will be used to reimburse for the RAWs already purchased and be folded forward into new projects as we pick them up.  General funds option is to help us with unspecified series, or other fee's like dropbox/google drive costs.


Thursday, May 31, 2018

State of Scanlation 2018 - May

We are slowly creeping up to the groups anniversary once again, please, if you have any fan art, fan colouring, etc, please send it in and we'll include it in the releases.

NOTE: Ikaros, the irc file serving bot should now be back up.  As well as the reader.  Enjoy.

Series ending.



  • Ashitaba-san Chi no Muko Kurashi.  This series is complete in japan at 7 volumes.  We plan to finish it off.
  • Saikin Kono Sekai wa Watashi Dake no Mono ni Narimashita...... is complete in Japan as well, with 4 volumes.  We are about halfway through the last volume and hope to finish it by mid-summer.  Small chapters yes, but puzzling...?
  • Yuizaki-san wa Nageru! is complete with 5 volumes in Japan.  It's been purchased and we are preparing it.  
  • Kunoichi no Ichi! is complete in Japan with 5 volumes as well.  Again, we have it and are preparing this for summer.  Yes, there is a sequel, and we fully intend on doing it as well.

Needed

As always we are in need of volunteer staff to bring the best work to you on a regular basis.  While we prefer not to touch LICENSED projects, we won't strictly turn them down if a translator is willing, and the official version is 'crap'. 

  • Translator - Should be a intermediate level for the sanity of the proofreader(s)  Hell, bring us projects you want to do and they might go to the top of our list.
  • Proofreaders - Grammar natzi's are welcome, however be mindful of the 'spirit' of the original text.  We need for a variety of projects.
  • Redrawers - You need to use Photoshop for this and be willing to keep pace with the projects you want to work on, and able to help out with other series on a non-regular basis.  (I promise...  I do.. really... )
  • Typesetters - We could use one typesetter.  Again must use Photoshop for best results.
  • Quality Control - We do need this, you should be able to check fonts, font size, style, text shaping, positioning while being mindful of the original text and meaning.  
Please apply using the menu above, and then drop into our discord if you have any questions.

Projects in need

We've been asked by One Time Scans to help pick up their slack on a number of projects.   Unfortunately a couple of them need translators to continue.
  • Re:zero Kara Hajimeru (third arc)
  • Tate no Yuusha no Nariagari
  • Ero Manga-sensei 

Pickups

Projects we are currently picking up and may need some additional help with are...
  • Dekisokonai no Monster Trainer (former joint project with OTS)
  • Gun-Ota ga Mahou Sekai ni Tensei shitara, Gendai Heiki de Guntai Harem wo Tsukucchaimashita!? (former joint project with OTS)

  • Mushoku Tensei - as a joint with CAT Scans.  
  • Seitokai Tantei Kirika
  • Is it okay to pick up girls in the dungeon (danmachi)* (needs a translator after we finish existing scripts)
  • Episode Ryuu* (needs a translator after we finish existing scripts)
  • Sword Oratoria (needs a translator after we finish existing scripts)

State of Scanlation 2018 - March

With Batoto closed down, we've moved over to one of the first aggregation sites to pick up the slack.  Mangadex is shaping up to be a hopeful path to the future.  We have also started compiling on our own group site here

I have some projects in the works that need staff.  Some 'isekai' that we might be taking over from another group (or two) and we will mainly need typesetters, redrawers, and yes, proofreaders would help as well.

So if you like the more 'isekai' jump over to our recruitment page and submit a application for the role you think you can fill.

Simply put 'future projects' in the 'other' line when you are asked about which projects you want to work on and we will get back to you as soon as we can.

Some other news
  • Domestic na Kanojo - We still have a couple scripts, but between it being licensed, and another group/aggregator RIPPING the official releases, we are opting to do the chapters we have and finish it.  We will however look at translating any special chapters not officially released in the english version.
  • Ninkoi karenbo - This will be finished up probably in the next week.  It's currently in QC.  Uncharted scans also stepped up and did the omake/extra story at the end.
  • Youkai Shoujo - You should see a handful of chapters released over the next month as we finish out the volume.
  • Gun x Clover - Should be finished up soon.  Translation is ongoing.
We've been a bit slow with the new year but we are slowly picking up the pace again.

Again, we are always looking for more help.

State of Scanlation 2018 - Jan

IT's a brand new year!!!

It's come to our attention that our favourite reader site bato is closing down.  Multiple reasons and I personally can understand why grumpy has made the choice.

We are looking at various solutions for where we will host the series we work on, and I have been in contact with at least one other group about setting up a private server.  I am cautious on anything I do in scanlation so it might take a bit.

  • Domestic na Kanojo - It seems this series is not only licensed but surpassed us in official releases.  We will be releasing what we HAVE in the matter of scripts already prepared.  However going forward is questionable of worth.  Especially as another group has ripped the actual authorized licened material and posted it 'elsewhere'.  Please remember to support the mangaka!
  • Translators - We always have need.
  • Happy Negative Marriage - The translator has been gracious enough to continue working the series even though we have not been actively working on it.  The typesetter who works on this should be back soon and we hope to begin releasing chapters again soon.
  • Romsen Saga  - Chapter 7 has been received.
  • Gun x Clover - We will be finishing this series off.  Expect more.
We are slowly getting moving forward still with Hare kon, Saikin, and Yuizaki ha Negaru! among others.  Expect them soon.

The death of Bato.to

Batoto is dead, long live the potato.

Our official Reader site has died.  The domain has been auctioned and as we would love to wait to see what might come from the auction, the fact is no one knows.  I’ve started evaluating reader sites to determine which one is the most reader and scanlator friendly in the wake of recent events with batoto.

Currently there is really only three choices, and one stands hands and shoulders among them.

First, we will slowly be building up our own hosted solution, and while I myself had considered finding a solution to open up to the community at large, the fact is the only solution before us is limited in scope.

So, we will slowly be uploading our series to http://reader.letitgo.scans.today.

Secondly, the seemingly favoured reader site more like batoto, is mangadex.  For now, while it is being developed, it seems the most promising.  So we will “officially” be supporting them in the meantime.

Please note however we have some 420 or more releases to upload so it will take some time.

The third “visual” choice that I’ve reviewed still has a way to go, but I understand they’ve been overhauling their design.  Check manga.sh out if you have time.


Thanks for being patient with us.

State of Scanlation - Autumn 2017

State of Scanlation


Last week we learned the irc bot where we provide the zip files of our releases was not responding to requests.  This has since been rectified and should have been working by Monday Oct 23.

Other news.


  • Demo is back.  He's been working primarily on Domestic na Kanojo  and we have a couple scripts in the pipeline.  At least one waiting for Quality Checking.
  • Brave Star Romantics, a series we've picked up with the help of Cas, is finished in Japan.  We are sticking to our 1 volume commitment and I'll be working on it myself (Godric) unless we get a typesetter who really wants to work on it more than me.
  • 365 days without her, a Sekirei spin-off, we've partnered with another group to get this series released.  It's was alternating with Brave Star Romantics in the publishing schedule so hopefully with BSR being done, it will get more attention and more chapters.

  • We continue to need help with the series to get them done faster.  Check out the recruit cards or the recruit page for more info.

  • We are working on getting our own reader up and running.  We also have a new domain name.  LetItGo.Scans.Today (it loads here).

  • We've begun work on Kirei ni Shitemoraemasukai.  It's officially picked up and work is in progress.  It appears they simply CONTINUED the story so no number reset.  - Thank God. -   We could really use a dependable typesetter to assist with at least 2 projects.  Join us in Discord to ask more (and fill in an application on the recruitment page).  Chapter 4 is nearly ready.

  • We now have the next Volumes for Saikin (Vol 4) Yuizaki (Vol 4) and Kunoichi (Vol 3).  We also have DomeX vol 12.  Why so far ahead? I hate NOT having them for preparation work.

  • (Updated Dec 21st) Want to support us?  When you need to search for manga and anime, try searching here. It won't cost you a cent, AND it should provide the cost of RAWs that we need!  It'll return amazon, scanlation group and aggregator listings!

State of Scanlation Summer 2017

We've stumbled a bit heading into the next year.

By the numbers.

One of our typesetters, Hekate who works on Romsen Saga, Happy Negative Marriage, Kunoichi and UsoPara has to step aside, or at least minimize his workload.  He needs to drop everything but one due to personal reasons.  Keep him in your prayers/thoughts.

As a result, I could use at least one more typesetter.  I myself am slowing down even tho my passion is just as hot as ever for manga, that said, Help?

You need to have Photoshop 7+, and a willingness to learn.

 Joshikai Quest - Please consider this on the backburner.  If another group would like to pick it up, please contact me and I'll gladly point people to their website to keep abreast of the situation.  I honestly need the translator to focus on the couple other projects we have that are a bit more significant.  IE, Adam in Puberty, and DomeX etc.

365 days without her. -  You might know this as Sekirei 365, or 365 days without a girlfriend, however I'm told this is the closer translation.  It seems we might have a translator for it, it'll be a joint.  We just need to wait for the script, and I'll be typesetting it myself, at least to start. (Godric)

Online Reader - I've been asked by one of our guys who is working on this stuff for another group, if we'd like our own reader.  My own concern is cost to maintain the server.  I mean we put out up to 200 chapters a year.  I know we ain't batoto or even one of the smaller guys but, its a concern yaknow?  I'd like to hear your opinions on it.

Shortly after listing a couple new series on our recruitment card, other groups have picked them up.  I am still evaluating their quality before I decide whether or not to redirect attentions to a smaller list.

Yes, I'm willing to do a joint for most of these.

 Again, anyone able to redraw or typeset especially would be appreciated.  Please contact us via the application/help link along the top menu and fill out the form so we have an idea of your ability.

Thanks.

State of Scanlation.

It feels good to have completed two years and to be heading into our third.

That said, we are looking at a number of series to pick up.  However, to do these properly we will need more staff.

Honestly they are accusing me of burning the candle at both ends, I can't help it, I do what I love.

I've created a new page that should help inform what positions are most needed for which series.

However, right now we could use Proofreaders and Redrawers most, with typesetters taking up a close third.

In the meantime, while we recover from our anniversary week, releases might be a bit slower and we might miss a chapter or two.

Yuizaki-san ha Negaru! and Saikin Kono Sekai wa Watashi are both coming to end of their volumes and I'll be purchasing them sometime in the next week.

Kunoichi no Ichi is waiting on redraws which are coming along slowly.

Starving Anonymous needs a lot of redraws.  One's I am not confident in doing myself.

Youkai Shoujo still needs a new translator if we are to finish it.  Otherwise it will be dropped when we release the final chapter of the current volume.

Edit:  2017-08-26:  I've finally updated the typesetter applicant test page.  Seems one of the pages was wrong...

Now, if I can stop finding new manga I want to work on...

Celebrating 2 years of Scanlating!!!

Yes, wow, its been two years.

As a group anyways, much longer for some of us.

That said, we have a strong need for redrawers.  Especially those who can handle near photo quality images.

We also have a very special gift for those who follow the series we handle.  Stay tuned, and it'll be evident I think in the next week.

That said, here's to a third strong year!

State of Scanlation


Welcome to Spring 2017 

This quarter we see some interesting news.

Sekirei's GOKURAKUIN Sakurako is reported to be starting a new series based on Sekirei, apparently it will fill in MORE of the missing last year(s).  "Kanojo no Inai 365-Hi no Koto" (About 365 Days Without a Girlfriend).  One year since Musubi beat Miya, and one year before she returns.  This is that story.  Yes, I hope to pick it up.

Freezing's Im Dal Young has been Ill since November.  Apparently the series is due to resume 'this Spring'.  The only problem is Spring ends in June (and some say the publisher claims July), we can barely wait.

I've be in contact with a number of translators seeking to have various projects done.  To this ends, we have received scripts and some RAWs for the following series.
  • Broken Blade.  We had been eyeballing this and had received a couple scripts for it while the other group continued to do a sub-standard job.  At least to our view.  VisCoun scans returned and took it over once again.  Meanwhile, we have most of their releases on our irc bot.
  • Ninkoi - Karenbo Hichou.  There are only 5 chapters left, and it seems our own 'Demo' was the translator of note on these scripts.  They are being proofread currently.
  • Starving Anonymous.  While I don't really do horror, I had at least one cleaner jump on it and had it cleaned before I could say "I'll think about it."  More proof that if  you provide us scripts, GOOD scripts, then it'll get done.  Chapter 1 is currently in quality control. This should be out during Golden Week with some luck.  (First week of May)
  • In Another World, I'm Called: The Black Healer.  Yet another translator asked if we could pick this up if they provides scripts.  I've agreed as it's one of the many series I read.  We are currently looking for decent RAWs.  We are still waiting on the scripts  and proofing.
  • qtμt. No, I'm not overly familiar with it, the same translator who asked about Starving Anonymous requested this one as well.  We have it on our 'to do list' but have yet to receive the scripts. (qt cutie, or Cutie Mutie?) Seems like a 4-koma. I generally don't like 4-koma formats but this one doesn't seem to bad at first glance.
  • "Kanojo no Inai 365-Hi no Koto".   (Sekirei) I just received the RAWs for the first chapter.  I may have a translator willing to but it might be a month.  I'll continue to collect the RAWs in the meantime and hopefully we can get caught up fast. (May 13)
  • "Freezing".  We are still waiting on Freezing to return from hiatus, yes, we know this is disappointing.  Honestly we don't expect anything before the end of June 2017 (or mid July).  On the other hand, we HAVE found more extra 'omake' type chapters.  Two more from the Freezing Vibration DVD releases.  I will be speaking to the translator about them in the next couple weeks.
No, we have not yet dropped any projects OTHER than Break Blade which VisCoun has taken back up, but we do need translators to help nudge some of them forward.

I am also hoping to do a release a day during golden week.  Also, our anniversary is coming up in July.  So once again we will plan to highlight fan art (or short fanfictions) from any series we are currently working on.  Even crossover art.

State of the Scanlation...

Welcome to 2017.

Yes, this looks like a small message from the future, in fact its the only way to pin the post to the top of the blog.  That said, a couple items.

I've seen questions in the irc channel, asking what the status is of specific series.  We do have a 'project status' page here for that, and I update it every time we have a release, or we have significant movement towards release on a series.

This month, I am working on a couple more Freezing Omakes, they are really short, however they should help sait the hunger/thirst for anything Freezing.  Don't expect much, each of the chapters are '6-9 pages' no more.

As for  Shishunki na Adam, otherwise known as Adam in Puberty, we are still working on it.  We have 3 or 4 chapters waiting, and just received the translation for chapter 23.

As for other series, they are slowly chugging along.  The holidays did a number on some of  us, and for others it allowed us to catch up.  A couple cleaners and proofreaders where able to do their work over the holidays, some of us of course had to slow down.

Please be patient, I've been doing my best to make sure there is a slow steady roll out of chapters from various series.

We still need raws for Ashitaba Family Husband from c25 to c33, we might have found a source for chapters which are more recent however otherwise we will have to wait until February-April for the next volume.

Unbreakable Machine Doll has NOT been in the last few months magazines, but we do have one that we are working on from before that.  (part of the team disappeared and I dropped the ball here, sorry).

Some of the newer series are not 'dropped' and we remain dedicated to at least FINISHING the current volume.

In the next couple weeks I'm also gonna work on the recruitment application to make it more streamlined.  The one right now seems to cludgy to work with.  (Current applications should be fine however)

* Jan 17th - I was informed by one of our translators (Demo) that his current workload in real life will keep him busy for at least another couple months.  He'll be back soon with lots of chapters for us.    Please keep in mind he works on at least 4 of our series.  Please be patient during this time.
  Edit:  The new application forms are up.  I made it so you no longer have to work through the 'other' positions info.

* Jan 23rd - I noticed recently that some questionaire/applications that came in where requests for access to the forms, and not filled out forms.  This should be corrected now.

* March 2nd - Some of our series are slowing down to lack of good QC's.  Please, if you can QC (Quality Control/Assurance) and have 'grammar natzi' type habits, please apply.  The application process is now easier, and we will be happy to take you on or at least a trial basis.

* March 11th -  We are still in need of QCers, and at least one typesetter who has access to Photoshop (I use the CC version but v7+ is fine I think).  We've been informed that we are loosing our QC for Youkai Shoujo, and we still need one for Yuizaki, as well as room for them to work on various other series on a per-needed basis.  Please visit the recruitment page and submit the form.  We also find outselves in need for at least one Translator.   You'd be helpful in both TLC and working across the board.  In exchange, if there is a series that translator wishes to see worked on, we can move it to the fore-front.

Well, it's been over three months since the last NEW chapter of Freezing was released in its original publication and  not so much as a single official word on whats happening.

Today, I found the following in reference to it. Im Dal Young has been ill (He's recovered apparently), and we should be able to look forward to a new chapter "Spring 2017".

For reference, the news can be found here.

Domestic na Kanojo on the bot.

Domestic na Kanojo.

While this is a NORWAY SCAN project, and not a joint, I (Godric) do some work on it, and as a result Volandum has indicated permission to put it on the bot.  I'm slowly uploading them so they should be available in the next week.

Please note, that Cafe con Levin has done a handful of these chapters and they are not available to us to host

Grab them on irc from #PocketLoli or #LetItGo@irc.irchighway.net with !domex[Insert chapter] or read it on bato.to.

Drop in, give thanks and don't forget to support the mangaka's by purchasing the work when it becomes available in your area.

State of the Scanlation...

The last month  or so has been a bit slow for releases.  While there are a mirade of reasons, we won't bore you with them.

Do we need help?  We always need help, people willing to work hard and help us out on the various series we do.

* October 29th, 2016 - I'd love to pick up the colourized or webtoon version of Freezing, however we would desperately require a KOREAN translator.  If anyone's interest please send us a email!

* November 13th, 2016 - I've recently had surgery, so for the next month releases might slow down a bit.  Please be patient.  (Youkai Shoujo, Hare-kon, and a couple others should not be affected).

* December 19th, 2016 - We are still looking for translators and various other positions for series we want to pick up.  This is important with the completion of no less than 4 series. The Freezing spin-offs, Sekirei, and soon Dream Hunter Rem.

* December 27th, 2016 - We've decided to put Yuizaki-san ha Nageru! on hold and wait for the tankobon/volume to be released late January/February of 2017.  This is mainly due to the low quality of RAWs we have had to work with.  (All RAWs ARE appreciated however some tend to 'kill' cleaners and redrawers.)

Please also be patient with us over the holidays.
