TokyoPop went ahead and cancelled their distribution of the Kindaichi Case Files again, so I'm relaunching my old, failed Kindaichi Scanlation Project because I love this series and it deserves more than it's 10-person fandom ;o ( Read more... )

...huh. You know, I have a Japanese PS1 game of some kind (I think mystery solving/visual novel format?) I got as part of a lot of various games that's based on that series. I'll probably never play it with my backlog, but when I saw this it reminded me of it. XD

Like, years ago in anime club we watched the first episode of the anime for that. I've always wanted to watch/read more since.

:DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

Unfortunately, we're not going to do the cases that TokyoPop did already because they did a better job than I ever could and I'd feel bad scanning and uploading it (especially since I want people to buy it so they finish translating baaaaaw)

BUT! I'll definitely send whatever we finish your way :D YAY MORE PEOPLE READING KINDAICHI!

I want Nodame to tackle people out of danger's way one day! "NODAME JUST SAVED YOU FROM TRIPPING ON THAT ROCK, MUKYAA!!" "NODAME SAVED YOU FROM HAVING A BIRD POOP ON YOUR HEAD!!" "NODAME IS A HERO BECAUSE WALKING WITH PAPER IS DANGEROUS!!"

... they're pretty gruesome at times, it depends on the case and the method of murder, hau hau. B-But if I can stomach it, maybe it's okay?
