Whoops! I forgot to ask you Jen: Is that an old Japanese or Chinese movie as your avatar? It looks interesting ;)

[caithion.livejournal.com]

It's pretty recent, actually! It was a musical based on the old silent movie "Blood and Sand", about a bullfighter in Spain. This is the Japanese Takarazuka version, done in 2001 (http://kageki.hankyu.co.jp/revue/backnumber/0111tuki/index.html)-- all-female cast.

Whoaa! You completely revamped your website! Neato! I just got back from visiting my brother in Japan and I noticed lots of advertisements of those plays (all female cast) that you used to have on your wallpaper. It's MIGHTY expensive for admission! Must be interesting. Anyhow, I hope you have an amusing, refreshing New Year and thanks a bunch for working on HH! Take care!

[caithion.livejournal.com]

Hi! Glad you like the new look. ^_^

Aren't they expensive?! But all musicals are expensive in Japan. I remember paying $100 to see CATS....

I hope you have a great New Year too!

Awesome! Houkago Hokenshitsu keeps getting better with all that suspense and angst! ^-^ Thank you SOOOOOO much for introducing this series to us! I dunno...is it me or it's either you like it or hate it. So far, I'm the rare few that adores this series (sigh). Some people don't like the transexual ordeal, but I love that factor! OH well...THANKS for working on it!

[caithion.livejournal.com]

You're very welcome! And thanks for the reminder! *goes to translate the last few chapters*

I love Hokago Hokenshitsu

[(Anonymous)]

It's such a great story!!! I'm wondering since long.. Will you update the raws of the fourth volume because it's hard to understand the story with only the text translations. And I'm impatient to read the next chapters too *_*
You made such a great work, thanks a lot! I buy the book in french but since now only the first is out and since I'v got the 4th I can wait loooong!!! Although, it's a good thing that it's licensed! Because more people can read it now.

Re: I love Hokago Hokenshitsu

[caithion.livejournal.com]

I love it too! I'm sorry I haven't updated in a while, I am getting ready for the summer field season. I hope to get caught up on scanning and translations when I return in July!

~Sorry for the wait!!

Wow! It's been a while, but I'm very elated that you translated chs 17-18 of Houkago! Thanks so much! I need to buy the tankoubons, but I have to wait 'til after Christman :) Well, I hope you have a great winter season! THANKS!

[caithion.livejournal.com]

It has been a while! So long, in fact, that no one told me that it had been liscenced in English (http://www.gocomi.com/series/nightmare/). Oops! So those will probably be the last chapters I translate. :) Thanks for sticking around so long.

Houkago Houkenshitsu -01 - a little error

[(Anonymous)]

pg 11, "Do you have some kind of orders from the nurse's office?" - you've misread Houkago for Houkenshitsu (no wonder, given the title)

[(Anonymous)]

Umm..caithion..i'm sakimichi owner if konichiwa scanlations, is it ok, if we use your translations for After school nightmare? We already released c.4 and our pr said that he got the translations from you, an i thought that it wouldn't be nice if we took it without permission,so can we use em?

[caithion.livejournal.com]

After School Nightmare has been licensed in English (http://www.gocomi.com/series/nightmare/), so I'm going to have to ask you to please take down any scanlations you've used with my translations. It's illegal.

Thank you.

hi

[(Anonymous)]

Hello, i love some of your translations, just wanted to say hat, hope you'll continue translating Itsumo Miteiru Mono Dakara :)
thats one of my favourite yaoi mangas ;)

Re: hi

[caithion.livejournal.com]

Hi! Oh, thanks very much.

Someday I might translate more, but recently I've been a little distracted from translating manga. I'm sure someone else will pick it up if you ask around, though. :D

[(Anonymous)]

hey um..i just came across a manga that you scanlated years ago and i've been looking all over for download links at various sites but i really can't find it anywhere. would it be possible for you to upload hadaka no ouji-sama somewhere?

[caithion.livejournal.com]

Hi! I'm sorry, I think I've miss-placed the CD I had it saved onto. I really need to look into it and find it, but I suspect it might be in storage in my parents' attic. On the other side of the continent. ^^; Sorry!

[(Anonymous)]

that's okay^^ i think i'll just look some more..probably irc since i can't seem to find it on http.

Hi there!

[nageboroshi.livejournal.com]

Thanks a lot for all your groups hard work in all your projects ^^
and I also wanted to ask permission if we can please host your projects in our forum Esthetique here's a link:
http://www.esthetique-realm.net/forums/

we will put a link to your website and credits will be properly given ^^

Re: Hi there!

[caithion.livejournal.com]

Hi! I don't actually do scanlations any more, and I've asked people to stop distributing mine. It was for a variety of reasons, but mainly that I felt uncomfortable doing it after having met and talked with some doujinshi artists while I was in Japan.

You're more than welcome to host my text translations though, if you would like to. :) I just ask that you please not use them for scanlations.

Thanks!

[lily-kitty15.livejournal.com]

hi just here to say thanx for releasing some o really cute manga i have read and bought a few since i cant aford so much. plus i wanted to know where i can get some of Translated Treasures projects that were released like "Hadaka no Ouji-sama" i really wanted to get this one but i cant seem to find it i looked everywhere.

[caithion.livejournal.com]

Hi! Well, I stopped releasing them about 4 years ago. I was beginning to feel bad about the whole concept of scanlating, especially after talking with some of the artists. So I'm afraid they're not really available anywhere for download anymore, or at least, they shouldn't be.

Sorry to disappoint! I'm still keeping an eye out for "Hadaka" to see if it gets re-released in a short-story collection by the artist, but I don't think she has yet.

[queen-artesia.livejournal.com]

Thank you very much for your Houkago Hokenshitsu translation. If I may ask, are you going to continue translating it? Thank you in any case.

[caithion.livejournal.com]

Aw, thank you for the "thank you"s. :D

I've stopped translating it, I'm afraid, since it's being officially released as "After School Nightmare" in English by Go! Comi. It seemed a little silly to do all that work when most folks will just be buying the English versions anyway. ;)

ITSUMO MITEIRU MONO DAKARA

[(Anonymous)]

Hey.. First great job on the scans ^^ Second...I'm not too sure if you are going to check this after so long, but I thought that I'd let you know anyways ^^ @ the footnote on page 15 of ITSUMO MITEIRU MONO DAKARA, you asked about a reference to topknots and Bouzo's. Well, I was curious too..so I asked around.. Looks like he was just being very sarcastic.. Bouzo refers to a school boy hair cut, with very short hair (similar to the Buzz-cut).. So he's just being sarcastic, asking if he should maybe have hair long enough to be put up in a top knot~lol
