All Quiet on the Yuri Front

Hello everyone, it’s been a while.
Were you expecting a new scanlation? Well, too bad, this is just a blog post to let everyone know why I’ve been inactive in the last year.
Long story short, I work far from home with a long commute that leaves me with very little free time (sometimes I wake up just in time to eat something and then leave for wok) every working day. I’m trying to find a place to live that’s not so far from my workplace, but the housing market is fucked.
Not exactly the life I’ve imagined just a few years ago, but it is what it is.
As you can see, I’ve got a new domain and a new host, too. I haven’t completely given up on scanlations or translations, I just don’t have much time and I hope I can release *something* this year.

Liberty

Yeah, what happened to Liberty? It’s on hiatus again, without any reason or information given. I can’t hide I found this situation deeply frustrating because this manga started in 2017, almost TEN years ago, it has only 22 chapters and since 2022 only three chapters have been release, with a three years hiatus between 21 and 22. I guess the main reason for this long wait is that Kitta Izumi is busy taking care of her daughter who will turn 2 in November and doesn’t have enough time to work on Liberty.
We have no choice but to wait. Stay tuned.

Pandacorya

I’ve got some good news!
The masterpiece “The Story of a Strict Teacher Who Got Fucked by Her Gyaru Bitch Student” (translated by yours truly!) just got licensed in the US under the title “Uptight Teacher Meets Gyaru Slut” by J18 Publishing. You can buy it HERE. Please support the GOAT if you can!
Also, he announced he’s working on a new manga about a girl experiencing a lesbian brothel during a school festival… Crazy, I like it already. I should become a NEET just to have time to scanlate it.

Anyway, that’s it for today. I’m planning on changing this blog a bit, and I already started by hiding some old stuff that I don’t care about anymore. But the translations of Sumipe’s old blog will stay. I love you Sumipe!

Guess who’s back?

Good news everyone!
The February issue of Galette just came out, but what really matters to us is the preview of the June issue, which shows that Liberty will finally come back after an almost three years long hiatus!
Something tells me it won’t be the last chapter, since that would mean the 3rd volume would be just four chapters long, so I believe the adventures of Liz and Maki will last for at least three more chapters. But this is just my theory, so take it with a pinch of salt.

Oooohhh, I missed you! I missed you so much!

All work and no yuri makes Yuri a dull boy

G’day mate, how ya goin’?
It’s been a while since I’ve written (or released) anything here. I’ve been busy with my Australian life and I had no time for scanlations, which makes me a bit sad. That said, I want to update you on your favourite yuri manga that’s been on hiatus for well over two years: Liberty.
In April of this year, Momomo Moto announced on Twitter that Liberty will definitely be completed, but, due to her busy schedule, it’ll probably happen in 2025. Why such a long hiatus? Well, maybe it has something to do with the fact that Kitta Izumi gave birth to a healthy baby girl on November 1st. Congratulations to her and her husband!
Hopefully 2025 will give us both Liberty and Goodbye, Daisy and… I think Pandacorya is working on something new. I don’t know where I’ll be or what exactly I’m gonna do next year, but I hope it’ll be a good year for both yuri and Yuri (that’s me).

See ya!

YuriYaku Wrapped

Hello everyone, how was your 2023? I hope it was a good year for you. I don’t want to bore you with my life, so I’ll just say it’s been… Okay. I finished my Master with a magna cum laude, made a bit of money with work, and I have another job lined up next year. I’m still far from achieving my dreams, but a man must aim high. Since you’re here for my scanlations, let’s talk about this a little bit.

A small update

I fixed a few errors in the release of The Story of a Strict Teacher Who Got Fucked by Her Gyaru Bitch Student #3. I already updated the MEGA, Sadpanda and Mangadex gallery.
Updated MEGA archive [HERE]

Many thanks to Nobody (that’s the name) for further proofreading this release.

Liberty skipped yet another issue of Galette, so please don’t ask me if I abandoned it or when I’m gonna release the next chapter because I have no idea what happened to it.

The Rare Blog Post

No release today. I just wanna talk so if you’re patient, please bear with me a little because I’m not good writing long stuff on the computer: I generally use pen & paper before.
It’s an awful period, but at least I’ve worked on some great stuff in last months and I’m satisfied with it: my Photoshop, English and translation skills improved, not so sure about my Japanese but eh. Going back maybe I’ll change a few things here and there but I guess it’s impossible to be 100% satisfied with your own translation.
Now, how do I decide what to scanlate? For Liberty it was easy: a manga written by a cute yuri-loving seiyuu? Whoa, sign me in! You know the rest, it’s very funny to read everyone’s comments every time I drop a new chapter. For the others, it depends: a good artstyle and a particular plot make me want to scanlate them and if they also hit my fetishes it’s even better! I won’t say what my fetishes are, you need to find out yourselves.
So here’s the questions: what are the manga I’ve enjoyed the most among all the ones I’ve scanlated so far? Easy: the trilogy of Yukino and the nurse by morino! A good, funny story with an artstyle I like a lot, plus nurse Kurosawa is hot (someone pointed out she looks like Negom’s Mob-sensei and that’s what makes her so good). Unfortunately it seem that morino disappeared from the Internet but….Here’s the good news: SHE’S BACK!
Some anon on /u/ found the cover of the latest work, a doujin in Chinese of what looks like another entry into the universe of Yukino and Kurosawa:

Tentative title: “The infirmary’s delusions diary” or something like that

Yes, she changed her alias from morino to Noda but that’s her. She sold this doujin at a convention in China, so I guess it might be a bit hard to acquire. If we’re lucky, she might sell the Japanese version online for us to enjoy. Here’s her twitter, go give her a follow she deserves it: Noda_ofir

Thank you for reading this and for following my releases! I made a new poll, go check it out because I want to hear your opinions!

Yuri

How embarrassing!

It seems I’ve committed a few errors in the release of Touma-kun chapter 2 and 3 and I’m very sorry for that.
Soooo, here’s the first page that’s missing from chapter 2 HERE
and I’ve corrected page 19 from chapter 3 due to a mistranslation ALSO HERE

Thanks to Rejuun and Nevri on Dynasty for pointing out those errors. I’ll pay more attention next time.

By the way, I’m working on Touma-kun chapter 4, but it’s gonna take me a while and I’ll give priority to Liberty because it’s the manga that people (and me) prefer.
Sorry Touma, but everybody thinks you are a fucking asshole and masses demand to know why Liz had a nervous breakdown, there’s no match here.

The beginning of a new great adventure

And here we go.

I can’t believe that I started a blog, but here we are. On this page, I won’t talk about me, as I already have Twitter for that, but I will post various stuff translated by me, from English to Italian, from Italian to English and from Japanese to Italian and English, and maybe some little post about translation itself.
Why this blog? Because I’m bored and sometimes I wanna try new things.
I know this blog isn’t pretty enough, I’ll embellish it when I’m not busy studying, playing videogames or being miserable.
Regarding the name of this place: yaku (訳) means, among other things, “translation”; there’s also a word-play on the word iyaku (意訳) which means “liberal translation”. Yes, it’s a shitty word-play, I know that.
