SCX-Scanlations

The Olympics are finally winding down, and it’s definitely been one of the most exciting experiences in my life so far. Tonight, Canada vs Slovakia in hockey, GO CANADA!!!

Orange Roof is almost done, we have around 14 chapters left to release. I can’t believe how popular this manga has become, it seemed pretty ordinary but now I’m glad Onizukaa (in the navy at the moment) chose to scanlate it :]

Now even though I’m Canadian and I should be supporting Rochette, KIM YU-NA WAS AWESOME! I nearly cried when she was finished and started crying, it was just breathtakingly stunning. Props to Brian Orser too, this picture describes it all.

Thanks to FoOlRulez for translating!

So we’re down to the second last volume (7) of Orange Roof. Hopefully we’ll finish this series within the next 4 months along with Family Compo (please thank the awesome editor of both series who also edits Noel no Kimochi by the same mangaka of Orange Roof, Eye!). He’s an awesome guy who never complains even though I pile him with scripts and a fantastic editor.

Right now, Vancouver is all sunshine and blue skies. It sure beats the crappy rainy and windy weather we had over the weekend :] This puts me in the mood for some soft and chewy chocolate chip cookies <33

So, finally starting up again on Family Compo, hopefully we’ll finish this series sometime soon :] Happy Valentine’s Day / Single Awareness Day / Chinese New Year’s! Whether you’re lonely, or have a significant other, or didn’t receive enough lai see on CNY, I hope you guys are having an awesome Sunday!

On a side note, SCX is having a constant Olympic discussion in our channel (#detcetorp@irc.irchighway.net) while it’s aired live on TV, so if you’re in need of a place to cheer on your country (GO CANADA!!!!) or just want to chat, drop by! Who are you supporting? For me… GO CANADA!!!!!

I love pho.

Sorry for sporadically releasing. Term 2 has been much busier than Term 1, and the past week has been hell. But now that I’ve survived and am on break, and my city has been turned into a giant party-fest by the Olympics (anyone here to see it?), I’ll have time to focus on scanlation.

Anyways, did anyone catch the opening ceremony? It was average in my opinion, but the aerial view of Vancouver made me realize just how lucky I am to live here :] Happy Chinese New Year’s too! Tonight is the night for dining outside (though I’m eating at home with my family – feast time!), hope everyone gets to enjoy some awesome food!

It’s currently rainy and windy and cold right now, which means time for some nabeyaki udon. SO GOOD! What’s your favourite kind of noodle (mine is udon)?

This concludes Idol no Akahon, a manga that has really short chapters so we could release it really quickly to artificially boost our release rate and massage our tiny egos. I would love to say we are sad to see it end, but I for one never really liked it. The story was childish, the art was half assed, and the characters were cliche. But I’m just bitter. I’m sure there’s some bright-eyed little girl/boy (I’m not sexist) who just loves this series and is so very grateful, but from our stats, this is the least popular series we’ve done yet. Oh, and also Lenners (the leader of the group) doesn’t really have time to manage the group at the moment, and thus has even less time to teach new comers, so we aren’t accepting any new applications unless you have a referral from another reputable scanlation group. We prefer letters of recommendation that talk about the quality of your work, as well as the content of your character (we don’t care about the colour of your skin). Anywho we’re down to 12 projects now (yay!). Oh, on a different note, can you believe that the saints won! I mean on side kick, and the interception at the end! I was like no way! Anyway obligatory hot girl picture coming up. Classy ladies >_>… Yea I really didn’t want to write this blog post.
