Any chance you can just post the finished scripts on Mangahelpers? They can always be read alongside the raws.
Yeah, I will, once they're proofread. (Agreed on that with RedHawk.)
Those of you who're super eager to know what's going on in the chapters can PM me and I'll send you my scripts underhand. That being said: chapter 10 is up! :)
Merci Beaucoup .
Awesome, thanks.
Is there anyplace where I can get the raws? other than that one chinese site cause that's unsafe.
Or Raw-distro, which is where they get their raws from.
Thank you very much
throws chapters 9-11 into the slop bucket

i've seen the raws for the upcoming chapters. I hope that the lion guy whoops the orca's ass.
Text translation for chapter 12 is out since the other day and I just received the PR'd version of chapter 13 which I'll upload in the next couple of hours, so please check my tl archive for that one as well.
I guess, I'll be completing chapter 15's script some time today and then work myself through kingsize 16 with its little extra pages tomorrow or so. By next weekend I'll probably have caught up with the weekly standings from JUMP. Finally…

Thanks for the trans Prince, these 3 chapters were really good.

hey hey hey, lots of new chapters! I really like the designs of the aquarium guys, especially the spide crab guy.
the rival director seems pretty imposing.
just when rawmanga get's chapter 17, it's unavailable in megaupload….Grrrrr. I want to see the Lion fight the orca, Sorry I can't remember names all too well.
Chapter 13 ready for reading
Anybody else find the admin's comment on SWOT amussing at all?

You should see this… Lion kun is having fun...with a bit of a twist near the end XD
Oh... and
appears. XD
Lol Why is this series doing badly? Stupid Japanese kids.
Well, at least Psyren and SWOT are first to the chopping block. So, this ought to stick around for at least a little longer.
@Thousand:

that's exactly what i'm thinking.
Is it me or does Oogami look like a member of a new wave band?
Lol @ Kaizou looking like the fag from Mythbusters… totally killed me just now! 'Cause it's so true! 
Oh yeah, scripts for chapters 14 and 15 are up (the first was actually released a couple of days ago already). For those who still didn't bother to bookmark the link: Here ya go.
Just read the scripts and
! damn Oogami is awesome, he's turning out to be the ussop of this series, easily afraid but don't let that fool ya
Thanks for the translations mr.prince.
I just started this . Hope it doesn't dissapoint .
it won't, out of the new series this year it's the best (than again I haven't read enigma so i'm being a little biased)
When you translate something you grow strangely attached to it so I can't comment on that one either since I'm as biased as one could be…
Oh yeah, script for 16 is out and scanlation for 15 should be uploaded this weekend or maybe by Monday.
me too. :getlost:
dissapointing cause you'd expect asain kids to be smarter than that, than again bleach is still high up there. Honestly, Oumagadoki should be at around 8-10 ranking right now while bleach should be down at the bottom 5
EDIT: btw does anyone know how well the first volume is selling?

Oumagadoki 1st volume wasn't in the Top 30 in the first week, which means it selled under 26514 issues.
well that aint good…..great now i'm gonna know how fans of cancelled series feel.
edit: just looked at the chinese scans for 18 and 19 things seem to be picking up a little bit.

Double Arts were as strong as ever at these chapters. And at chapter 21 it got cancelled.
So the 18-22 slot is the hardest part of the way. Let's hope for the best.

Actually not too bad. It's not surprising the first Tank didn't make the Top 30 since new series are always printed in a small circulation as a matter of caution. (That is if they're not drawn by veterans [e.g. [I]Bakuman, Ane-doki, etc.] or JUMP decided to push the shits outta said series [e.g. [I]Kuroko, Beelzebub, etc.])
In Oumaga's case they miscalculated and OD Vol. 1 was out of stock at Japanese Amazon within 45 minutes. They refilled their stock twice and each time that didn't last a single hour.
On the cover of chapter 17 it said "selling and enjoying great popularity" and on this week's chapter's (no. 19) cover it is announced they'll launch an "urgent second printing due to the great popularity"!
I didn't find any concrete numbers yet but I have read at some other site specialized in Manga sales that OD's numbers were a little better than Kiben Gakuha Yotsuya-senpai no Kaidan which sold about 20,000 books with its first volume.
Now, even though this doesn't sound too reassuring seeing how Yotsuya's was canned eventually (despite being a culty nice series), we should be happy that at least some fuckers in Japan seem to appreciate this series as much as we do! Se, let's keep our fingers crossed their numbers will increase as well. :)

Well that's good news, if I had the money I would be buying the tanks myself than when (if) it started getting printed stateside i'd buy those tanks.
If i'm not correct in some cases for when volumes sell well the series stays in the magazine regardless to the rankings? cause I recall that toriko and Beelzebub were both in the bottom five alot in the beginning but due to sales they stayed in jump longer and are now in around the middle spot closer to the top 10.
Could someone maybe give a link to the Amazon listing for the first tankobon?
I can't find it ):
Chapter 20 was great
! seeing shina finally rabbit peacing Isana was a relief
Chinese scans for 21 is out.
Woah…MOBY DICK is in the HOUSE...I mean THEME PARK!

I liked isana's backstory, even though I couldn't read it, but it was quite understandable what was going on through the use of the panels.
I think this manga is pretty awkward.
I don't see how it's awkward in the least
Lookie what I found.

Well, it expressions remind me of Reborn. Always a bit too mild. The mouth is too far from the nose, which lessen the strength of the emotion.
The way characters react, talk feels unnatural.
The shifting between panels is executed poorly.
The character designs are interesting but the plot is mediocre. Always feel forced to me.
That way readers cannot get a strong feeling from it.
It lacks a certain charisma.
Still has some interesting elements though.

I would have to agree that the expressions do seem reborn like but the emotional impact isn't lessened by it.
I thought the characters react normally
At times it is hard to tell what's going on from panel to panel but a lot of the time the author makes it very clear at what he/she is trying to show.
I've made it to chapter 8. I'll finish up and post some opinions later today.

There has never been a good manga with that style.
Slightly similar to Eyeshield 21's, but the author changed it quick.
It's not an expressive or artistic style at all.
I thought the characters react normally
It's a bit awkward I think, especially the main female character's reaction. And most of what she does is sweating and being surprised. Just my impression, not have enough time to look through the series to provide evidence.

It's not very catchy to me.
Just my two cents.

The reactions she makes when shina does something makes sense to me. Some of her reactions I do ponder at what the author was going for.
In case you don't know the aquarium arc has finished and now we get to a look see into hana's school life.
That's all fine and dandy…...but unless we can actualy read it it won't do us a whole lot of good :(
I know cause chapter 19 is one of the better chapters
! Gorillakon vs. the walrus and man that chapter made gorillakon awesome
So we have all the chapters up to 19 ?
Yup, just need 20-28
the new arc looks awesome
! it's focus is a circus this time
ah, pretty good chapters. I don't know why this is so low. It's not like super-great or anything, but it deserves at least a mid-tier ranking.
