We probably wont see a raw of chapter 4 for another 3 weeks.
Highschool of the Dead
-
-
Read the first chapter and I like it, isn't the greatest series ever, enjoyable fun though.
-
! The second chapter was decent. It was only a matter of time before someone with ginormous breasts appeared. The fat dork is pretty good, and it looks like we have our first psycho.

Translated Chapter 3
thank you! there's a smokinh hot pinup :wub: , too!
This manga seems inpired by Richard Matheson's "I am Legend", where a virus causes people to become vampires.
-
Holy Crap chapter 3 has Shaun from "Shaun of the Dead" this artist is obviously a big zombie fan.
-
had to read chapter 2 and 3 back to back Damn! These "XLG" put these babies out quick, always HQ and typo free too! I don't see how they do it. They are amazing.
That nurse really needs to consider a bigger shirt, or a bra atleast. <<
(Seriously, she has nipple prints and buttons ready to burst!)
-
Sounds too mundane to be bothered with.
-
I read the first chapter and a half. It seems pretty good so I'll finish reading tonight.
-
Something bugs me about the main female hating the stripe suit guy (yeah, I don't have names memorized). Wonder if the dude raped her or something, thats the kinda vibe I'm getting at least.
-
Wow… I really liked this! I can't wait for the next chapter ^_^

Chapter 4 scanlation: http://xamayon.org/scans.php
-
Awesome, just what I was expecting when coming here.
-
I cannot believe this! oO
…
Here's a scan from the last page of the HotD chapter five RAW. Read the text box!
!
-
Good 'ole engrish. Are there no editors to that thing or what?
-
Wow that english is just horrible.

Oh, come on, people. Is that all you have to say?
-
Ok Ok I'll write more. This is the first time I've ever seen an author speak out against the scanlation community.
There is that good enough?
-
Though you can buy manga rights at amazon? Also what magazine is this in. It's very interesting indeed.
edit: also I dont think its the author, more like the editors.
-
There is that good enough?
Yup. I was shocked, though, when I heard a manga-ka actually went a step further than this; this one dude who draws eroge doujins actually went to not4chan and helped the scanslators there translate his manga. That must have been a gosh darn shock. o_O
-
?! Who was that manga-ka. If so I he gets major "props"

I think his name is "Juan Gotoh" but do not quote me on that, nor should you really do any searches.
-
It's funnier how they expect people to actually pay money for this awful manga
-
Wow that is actually pathetic that the artist would actually take notice of translators trying to make non Japanese readers like their work.
-
Well… they don't get money for it like they normally should so them being angry is kind of legitimate.
-
If no-one read it because they couldn't understand it they'd still make no money lol poor guys are in a lose lose situation
-
Yeah pretty much. Although, if I like the series well enough I buy the manga volumes/ tankobans to support the author.
-
Well like I said they're hard pressed if anyone would be willing to actually buy this
-
THIS JUST IN: Author of crappy manga takes potshot at foreign readers that don't know better than to read something worthwhile. Film at 11!!!!
-
Ha ha, my English's bad enough that I didn't notice any Engrish at first. :P
Though, it's not the first time Japanese publishers spoke out for scanlation community. Well, maybe the first time in public. There were several cases in the past that authors and/or publishers contacted scanlators through emails, and that includes SnoopyCool, "Glass Mask" scanlators, and myself as well for "Hoihoi-san." I think this one's still better though, since all others just simply asked us to stop scanlating it or else they'd sue us. In my case, I asked the publisher if I could share the translated script online, and they said no since it still violates the copyright. They even asked me to take down all the "official" images I gathered from online/scanning the book, for it does violate the copyright as well. I had to shut down the fansite altogether because of that :/ Now several years past, and despite of the face the series had a lot of fan (it was mentioned in /. and all and also adapted to a game), it is still not licensed in N.A. yet. :(
But well, it's their loss anyway from our standpoint. It's just up to them to get longer-term profit or just see hte profit loss as of now @_@
-
It's hard to take this seriously because of the poor English. And the page where he decided to put that text is just a terrible/funny choice.
Almost seems like the mangaka's making a joke :P -
It's like ALL YOUR VIDEO ARE BELONG TO US. XD;
When YouTube put up that message (while they were in maintenance or something), Japanese got serious and saying "They might be referring to us. They're mocking us, blah blah blah." More here.
Even with the original sentence, "all your base are belong to us," most of Japanese were like "why English speaking people are being so picky on grammar? Are they trying to mock us?," so I'm most likely sure they're dead serious xD We use funny Engrish with serious context :O
-
it's actually a really good manga… if you get the chance to read it.. what is your opinion about it btw go to onemanga.com if you get a chance too.
Zomibiees
:happy:
Life is nothing more than game that you can only play once.

I always LOL at the fanservice parts of this manga because they should be misplaced, but they end up fitting perfectly! Love the overall concept and the action frames, though the main character's weird to me. I feel like he's changed in the wrong way- in the first three chapters or so, he seemed like a hardened prick capable of fighting zombies. Now he's pretty soft and it's apparent he's only barely getting by. Then again, the characters' evolutions add a new dimension to this manga with an otherwise pretty cliche storyline.
-
I read the entire thing last night. This is surprisingly entertaining.
-
Been reading it for awhile, good stuff though the personilty shifts do throw me off from time to time. Still a very good horror story, even has a Shawn of the Dead tribute in one of the chapters.
-
which chapter has the tribute? think I'v missed that… or forgotten about it.
-
Its liek chapter 6 I think. its after they get out the bus. its at the beginning, with the grocery store worker.
-
This is one of the few series I've to look past the Fanservice to truly enjoy

Summary
A mysterious, lethal disease is on the loose worldwide, resulting in a catastrophic death rate of humanity, and the increasing rise of attacks, caused by the living dead.
In Japan, several high school students and a school nurse have banded together to escape Fujimi Private High School shortly after it was attacked by "them." The group now attempts to figure who or what was responsible for this plague, and in the meantime, attempt to survive the present apocalypse.Online Link : http://www.onemanga.com/Highschool_of_the_Dead/
The best manga i've ever read, too bad it's inactive nowadays. But i suggest you to read it anyway, even though you might never see the end, it so fucking awesome it does it's work. I wish there was such movie or it got animated.
-
I read the first couple of chapters of this a while ago and, to me, it just seems kind of a generic zombie story. Maybe I have to read more to apprieciate it, but I'm already in the middle of reading 3 or 4 right now
. When do you think it starts getting awesome? -
When the girls start getting naked
:Smile:, kidding it's an attribute but not the main one. Just read further and i am quite sure you will like it. I can't pin point thing, you are the one to realise if you like and why you do it. -
I always find it funny that in the middle of a zombie apocalypse there always seems to be time for a sex scene or two. Can't wait for a zombie apocalypse

Wow, I really dunno what to say to you…
-
While I find the characters in this series absolutely generic, boring, and just uninteresting, I'm a bit happy they're getting it animated. Plus I take zombies whenever I can get them.
Hoping not a lot of stuff is capped or censored, but it's expected.
