Pretty Face is by Yasuhiro Kano, and ran for 52 chapters in Shonen Jump, a weekly comic magazine in Japan. It was wildly popular amongst a small cult of fans and was widely thought to be on its' way to being a favorite for Japanese Jump readers. Unfortunately, the series has ended prematurely. It was too good to last. But since there has been no effort to publish this title in the US, many American fans of manga have been pitching in on translations and scanning the pages for internet users to enjoy. I liked it so much that I decided to see if I could improve on the original translation and reformat for easier left to ritght reading. In Japan, books and comics are formatted right to left. I also replaced the Japanese sound effects and retouched some of the graphics. If you'd like to skip ahead and read the original US translation, go to the website #akatsuki-manga @ irc.mircx.com where they can direct you to downloading the available chapters through IRC. Also, you can read a second translation I'm using at Oop-Ack.com. |
