Hmmm... I had previously announced our taking on Blue Wars by Nakamura Yoshiki... but I thought I'd do it again. We'll be taking it over from Condensation.



Kunieda-sensei has a NEW series... and apparently 50x50 is over... ;__; Farewell, you quarrelsome twosome!

We will be translating Low-Temperature Blanket (Jan 2010: B-Boy) if someone can get us the scans. I don't THINK any other group has claimed it, so I'm gonna pee on it and make it ours!! XD

(Well, unless someone else HAS claimed it... we're not very territorial around here...)

In OTHER news, I am almost DONE with my HELLISH schedule. (THANK GOD.) So, 50x50 Ch 4 will be out with Superior 25b. We'll continue with Superior just BECAUSE. Well... BECAUSE I like it. HA HA HA HA!!

freeskiers
While some of us long to escape the cold, dark stretch of winter for hot tropical beaches, for others, there's nothing quite like whoooooshing down those shimmering sugar alps. If you're fond of freestyle skiing, get ready to slide down the slippery slopes in good company. This passionate, international community shares travel/gear tips, anecdotes, photos, and videos for those who can't get enough of the sweet stuff.
