Hi, I’m redex, the writer who decided to take matters into her own Photoshop-wielding hands when the scanlators of her favourite series slowly stopped releasing it.

History:
The name and origins of this site are the red_barns community on Livejournal. I picked up scans of the french volumes from anyone who could find them (some were got off eMule and are therefore untraceable) and put my painful ten years of French education to use. If you think that some of these scanlations are crappy, you are entirely right. All the techniques I use to clean and prepare scans were self-taught and I am always learning new things.
You will notice that Volumes 12, 13, & 14 are not in scanlation format, but instead the next-best-thing – raws and translations. Inside the RAW file (which is just a .zip, btw) you will find scans done by howan of livejournal’s red_barns, who put her most precious volumes on the line for the sake of keeping the scanlation going. Inside the translation link you will find a Google Docs plain text with page numbers corresponding to the scans from the French Edition Tonkam volumes.
You can buy here at Alapage.com. You can get all of Asada-sensei’s works in Japanese here at YesAsia.com. If you like the manga I highly recommend buying a dead tree copy, not just because it’s nice to have, but because it is the best way to show support for the manga-ka.
Right now I’m focusing on finishing the last volumes with translations rather than take my time doing scanlation, which really takes up 75% of the time and energy of the process. However, if you are interested in using my translations to scanlate, please just drop me a line! There is more info in the FAQ.
I love getting emails and knowing what I’ll fans are doing out on the internet, so please don’t be shy~
