And now we know why I did not put up a single title by Tohjoh Asami on all 7 days. Tohjoh Asami, like Tachibana Kaimu, is the worst of my mangaka addictions. I stalk yahoo!auctions just to get my hands on every doujinshi she's made that I do not have. (Though I've not been doing this as of late because I am very poor right now.)

I love her art. Like most artists, you can see the vast improvement in her art from her older works to her most recent ones. Probably one of the reasons why I love Tohjoh's stuff so much is that her works are so different and diverse. Shadows is a perfect example of this. Her Renai Junkie doujinshi is disturbing and smutty and sexy and yaoicest-filled. She can do funny, sexy, smutty, dark, disturbing... I have no words for the amount of love I have for this woman's works.

It doesn't even make sense, as I'm ready to admit that Tohjoh isn't one of the best story-wise, but her characters are never boring. She entertains the way BL mangaka are supposed to entertain. She makes you squee, grin like an idiot, gives you tiny heart pains, fangirl and enjoy whatever smut she has to offer. Should I shut up now? Yeah.

And hey, it says something if I've been obsessed with a mangaka as long as I've been obsessed with her. (6 years. Tachibana hits 7.)

I will trust on fangirl's resourcefulness to find and get their hands on what they want.

How to Download
Combined by the fact that I am pressed for time (I have to leave shortly after lunch) and the fact that I want to know everyone who downloads the Tohjoh stuff (hence why I'm not just dropping the link here) and I am tired of monitoring IPs, you'll have to comment to this post for the FTP address where Tohjoh's stuff are in. Or you can catch me on AIM/Y!M, but I'll be gone most of the day, so everyone will probably have to wait a few hours before I can get back to you.

All comments will be screened.


Title: Aitsu to Ore
Scanlator: Project Shueiguo
Download: 3 chapters + oneshot + doujinshi
Comments: Aitsu to Ore was the first Tohjoh manga I got my hands on, and the one that made her one of my favorite BL mangaka. This was only strengthened after I'd seen more of her other stuff. Aitsu was a random buy for me, back when I'd browse shops online and pick random titles I'd think was interesting and buy them. I had no idea what it was about, and had never heard of Tohjoh Asami. I have never regretted that decision since.

Aitsu remains to be a favorite out of her works. Maybe for sentimental reasons, but I do love the story. And it's kind of yaoicest, though they're step-brothers and not blood related. It has no sex, which makes me love it even more. She makes up for the lack of it with her doujinshi. >D Which by and by, falls under the switch theme and is utter love.

Title: Denkou Sekka Boys
Scanlator: Hochuuami & Nakama
Download: 3 chapters
Comments: Two pairs that I like! Bow down to Tohjoh-sensei's ability to have two couples and have me like both of them. (Kotobuki's Sex Pistols is another that's managed to do that.) Denkou Sekka Boys is one of those titles where Tohjoh proves she can take a normal, yaoi cliche and make me fangirl and love it endlessly because apparently, she completely owns my soul.

Title: For You
Scanlator: No Deadline
Download: oneshot
Comments: A good number of Tohjoh-sensei's stuff either falls under yaoicest or switch (sometimes both). This falls under the latter. It's a simple oneshot. She almost rivals Yamane on cloth!smex on this one, but Yamane still wins the prize for that hands down.

Title: Hagino Kouji Seiya-sama no Ran
Scanlator: Shi-Ran
Download: 4 chapters
Comments: Based on a novel by Akizuki Kou, this hits a kink which I was not able to include on the 7 days themes, which, now that I think about it, sucks, because it's one of my favorite kinks, but I've not read a lot of BL that fall under it. That is, the guardian/charge relationship, which I love second only to yaoicest. Icon used is of Seiya-sama from this series.

Title: Ouka Ryou Wars
Scanlator: Hochuuami
Download: 1 chapter
Comments: I don't own this and there's only 1 chapter available so far so I can't really say anything about it. She has a doujinshi out for this series, which I also don't own. =/ The first chapter sort of confused me with all the twin swapping (no, it's not yaoicest, one twin's a girl), but download, because it's by Tohjoh-sensei. :P

Title: Renai Junkie - Addicted to Love
Scanlator: Forever-More
Download: 3 chapters + doujinshi
Comments: Heheh. FANGIRLS. (I'm sorry, it's 12nn and I have to be getting ready soon. So comments will be rushed from hereon.) I liked this story too. Also, the doujinshi is of Haruki's (uke) two older brothers, and has the most traumatizing cat yet. Cat monster! <3

Title: Shadow
Scanlator: Shi-Ran
Download: 2 chapters
Comments: The other story that runs in the Renai Junkie tankouban, this all but convinced me that not only does Tohjoh-sensei do diverse, she really does do diverse in the wierdest sense. This had me loving her all over again, it's not even the story itself, but the situation. Hats off.

Title: Taiyou ni Nurete
Scanlator: Hochuuami
Download: 2 chapters
Comments: This is one of my favorite of her short comics. I think one of the reasons I love Tohjoh so much (geez, are you getting tired of me saying this by now?) is that her pairings/stories always somehow manage to affect me enough that you feel that little pang in your chest, no matter how short the story, no matter how simple the situation. Short, cute and sweet.

Title: Urimasu!
Scanlator: Forever-More
Download: oneshot
Comments: Short. Prostitution without penetration? <3 Supposedly. And lots of coffee-mug shots.

Title: X-Kai
Scanlator: Sweet Lunacy
Download: 1 chapter
Comments: It's interesting and different. That's 1 chapter of a 2 volume series, so download at your discretion. But you should download anyway. XD

Title: XY
Scanlator: No Deadline
Download: 1 chapter
Comments: Yaoicest and a bit darker than her other stuff, but nothing too dark.

Title: Yoiko no Sumu Machi (The Town in Which Good Children Live)
Scanlator: Tarts / Forever-More / Peccatore-Sanctuary
Download: 8 chapters
Comments: A collection of oneshots. 6 stories, 4 couples. My favorite by far is the first two chapters (first couple). Because dude, the second chapter and their fight scene. And the way they reconcile. ♥ It's simple, but damnit, so natural and I LOVE. The way the seme reacts and the way the uke reacts and waah! READ.

Edit: added
Title: Supernova & High Speed
Series: Eyeshield 21 doujinshi
Scanlator: Dragonfly
Comments: Nearly forgot about these. Supernova is a Shin x Sakuraba dj, while High Speed is a Shin x Sena dj by Konami Shouko. Tohjoh Asami just does a 2 page smut short in it. XD

And that is really the last day/post of BL manga pimpage you'll be getting.
Enjoy! (once you get the link from me that is) *rushes to get ready*
And Happy Easter~! >D Though I'm a day ahead than most of you.

I normally do these posts a day ahead, but I apparently forgot to save the Day 7 post separately before I posted the FTP change last night. So I had to do this post all over again, which of course does not please me in the least. Links to Jpqueen, Amazon and the scanlation groups not included on this post. Comments are also minimal, because I need to get this out in half an hour so I can work.

Also, I'm not to keen on any of these titles, but they all have one thing in common. Smut. So this time, I'm pimping out the sex and not the story.

That's the seventh and last sin. Hope those who downloaded enjoyed what they got. I am never doing something like this again. Lol. ;D If I ever do, I am preparing all the posts weeks in advance. *mutter*

Edit (04.03.05): All files taken down.

Switch is not another term for reversibles, as some people might initially think. I don't know if the Japanese have a term for it, so I had to create my own lame term (I like doing that) just so I'd have something to call it. Switch is basically having the younger guy = seme; and the older guy = uke.

Download: both oneshots
Buy: Covetous: Jpqueen | Amazon || Moment: Jpqueen | Amazon
Comment: Two oneshots by Naono Bohra, these are probably my favorites out of her stuff that I've read so far. Naono is another mangaka I have a love/hate relationship, mostly because she excels in cliche, but I adore some of her stuff despite it. =/ These two are perfect examples. I love her semes. They're such children with their jealousy. And all the characters are amusing dorks.

Title: Junjou Romantica (Egoist side) ♥♥♥♥!!! SHAMELESS FANGIRL MODE

Buy: Jpqueen: vol. 01 / 02 / 03 / 04 | Amazon: vol. 01 / 02 / 03 / 04
Comment: This title runs two stories, Junjou Romantica (the main pair) and Junjou Egoist (the second pair). I am only sharing the Junjou Egoist chapters, as this pair is the reason why I love this manga so much. If anyone cares to read the Junjou Romantica story, the chapters can be found in mochi mochi's website. I have plenty of love for this pairing and this story and I wish the entire manga was about them instead because they deserve it. The Akihiko mentioned that Hiroki is in love with in the Egoist story is the seme for the Romantica couple. Egoist is set a few years before the Romantica timeline. AND I LOVE THIS PAIR SO MUCH IT'S NOT FUNNY. Now go and download if you haven't read it yet.

Icon from one of my favorite scenes in Egoist.

Edit (04.03.05): All files taken down.

Not really everyone's cup of tea, so I apologize, but there was no way I was going to not have a yaoicest day. Honestly, this should be my favorite day, since everyone who's read my LJ long enough will know yaoicest is probably my biggest yaoi kink. Unfortunately, it's also made me realize there are very few yaoicest BL titles which I actually really like. My favorite one isn't even here, because I'm putting that one up another time.

Most of these are oneshots. Tsuki Yadoru isn't included because it's currently being posted on yaoi_daily. I am incredibly lazy with the comments here, sorry.

Comment: This is unbearably cute and amusing, and the pairing I like does not get enough screen (paper?) time. A certain twist in chapter 3 had me going "Ew!" and "Wtf?!" and laughing my head off silly at the same time (I am easily amused). But Yukari x Makoto DAMNIT. Curse my tendency to like underdeveloped pairings.

Title: My Lover Papa
Mangaka: Chi-Ran
Scanlator: Nakama
Download: chapter 01 / 02 / 03
Comment: ... I am guilty of actually liking this story, in the way one likes sweets that give you cavities. I blame it on Chi-Ran's willowy, way too pretty art, which makes me forgive the father/son relationship, because it sure as heck doesn't look like it.

Comment: I liked this a lot, in more ways than I could really give a reason why. I would say it gives me the same feeling as Chou ni naru hi did, except it isn't that really (and I loved Chou ni... better), but the minimalist style and the story combined creates a better impact on me than artists with beautiful art but not very impressive narrations.

Icon from here. Her silences are great.

Comment: I am admittedly not a big Nitta Youka fan. I love how she panels, and she draws really good kiss scenes, but her stories tend to be forgettable. White Brand is actually a collection of oneshots, my favorite of the bunch isn't included because it doesn't fit the theme. I am only including the two-part story, as it's the only one that fits Day 5.

Title: Hero mitai ni
Mangaka: Yamane Ayano
Scanlator: Hochuuami

Comment: I read Yamane-sensei for the pretty art and the hot sex, and it is rare that she actually pushes the right buttons with me outside of the pr0n. This one certainly does. :P I've noticed that I tend to like her oneshots more than her other works.

Title: Koi o Suru (Too Close for Love) ♥
Mangaka: Maruya Kae
Scanlator: Nakama

Comment: Short and sweet. Actually one of my favorites out of the titles posted for this theme. I like the expressions on her characters, good art, and this is probably one of my favorite kiss scenes ever. I've only seen one other oneshot by this author and I can't find any tankouban released by her, which is a rightful shame, because I would love to see more of what she's done.

Comment: I actually liked this story I just can't think of much else to say except that I was disappointed there wasn't more. Grr. Much too short for my taste, because I liked it and I did not get hot brother sex! Although the 'sex' scene between them is one of the sexiest yet.

Comment: Twins forced to be separated when they were young, now leaders of their respective gangs and out to kill each other. I adore this story and the characters in it, side-characters included (Mamiya~!). Wish it was a full-fledged story instead of a mere oneshot. :( It's violent and sort of angsty and funny and sweet all in one package. ;D

Comment: Added, as I just read it after I'd already posted this. I have a love and hate relationship with Yamakimi Riyu. If you take the general situation of most of her stories and have another mangaka do it, chances are that I won't like it (unless if said mangaka was Tohjoh Asami or the likes of Kawai Touko, Motoni Modoru, etc. You get what I mean...). They're generally things I don't take to, but I am amazed at the way Yamakimi-sensei writes her characters, because I am always torn between whether I like or don't like what she does. She takes an idea/relationship/situation I don't like and makes me like it. Her stories and characters are also unique. She's a very good and interesting read, as far as BL titles go.

Edit (04.03.05): All files taken down.

These are personal favorites that don't fit in any of the other 6 themes (or 5 because I cheated on the first one). So this pretty much means they all get ♥♥♥ and DOWNLOAD AND READ! comments from me. :P Also, GREED just describes me perfectly kthnx.

Summary: A story of best friends separated, only to meet again unexpectedly when Shou moves into the same high school Takashi - the friend he left behind - is attending. Takashi is delighted to see his best friend again, but Shou gives him the cold shoulder. What follows is one utterly frustrating event after the other wherein you'll feel like smacking everyone in the head because they're being stupid or annoying or both. It's a good story though, with a good ending.

His parents hire a security service who send two bodyguards to watch over Wataru's well-being at all times. This is a feel good story, with a little semblance of a plot (w/c is more than we can say for most BL stories) thrown in for the heck of it. It's cute, and I adore the pairing.

Comment: ... I'm not even going to attempt a summary for this. But DOWNLOAD AND READ because it is funny as heck. I was laughing like crazy 3 pages in and I've loved it since. I wasn't too keen on the premise, as I'm not very fond of catboys and variations of, but the story is cute and incredibly funny and I cannot imagine someone not loving this series. I am predictably, terribly fond of the secondary pair, but I like the main pair too, which is a rarity.

Comment: Kawai Touko is only the third mangaka who's made me go on a spending spree buying all her works I could get my hands on (the others being Tachibana Kaimu and Tohjoh Asami - both of whom I now have titles missing and should really get more of). I read her Bondz story first, loved it, and the moment I finished reading Cut, I bought all the manga she had listed in Amazon Japan. Kawai Touko manages to invoke emotions in her stories the way very few BL mangaka manage to do so. Her characters are real, and her stories strike at where it matters most. Go to the mochi mochi website and download her Loveholic series, that one's lighter in tone and randomly cute.

Icon from Cut, and rather lame, because I initially created an icon for another series before I realized I was planning to put it in Day 6.

Comments: Get real, who isn't smittened by Motoni Modoru after something as emotionally and psychologically damaging as Shiikugakari Rika I ask you? I would have placed Rika here, but I didn't think it would do to make my flist want to crawl under their bed covers and never come out (that and I no longer have a copy of the scanlations for it). The story isn't depressing as heck like Rika was (is), but it's standard Motoni quality, so it's definitely worth the download.

Comments: Set in Paris during the French Revolution, Yoshinaga Fumi proves once again why she is a strong favorite of shoujo/BL readers who prefer story to art. Though I think Yoshinaga's art is beautiful, in that different and unique style that she has. Old-style shoujo fans will probably appreciate it more. Those looking for a heart-wrenching story, won't find it here, but it's a solid story with a good balance of hilarity and its personal flavor of angst.

It's caveman yaoi at its best, with the beautiful art of Takashima Kazusa. I've included the Innocent Lies oneshot, which I actually prefer than the Wild Rock couple, but that happens to me a lot anyway.

Buy: I couldn't find a listing for this in amazon. And jpqueen is out of stock.
Comments: Sugiura is best known for her Koori no Mamono no Monogatari series. Silver Diamond is less blatantly yaoi-themed, but aside from what I think is a more involved plot than that of KnMnM, it also has amusing and funny moments which has just made it my favorite out of Sugiura-sensei's works. Taking place in modern day Japan, Rakan comes home from a normal day in school to find a strange man lying in his garden. The man, Chigusa, calls Rakan the "Living Sanome" with the ability to make plants grow by his mere touch. He is the last hope of the world from where Chigusa (and apparently, Rakan) come from. I like this pair and the story, and I have SO MUCH LOVE FOR THE TALKING SNAKE, and I want more, but I can't get my hands on the manga. ;_;

Stolen summary: Cesare Borgia is the son of Roderigo Borgia, a man with ambitions to become the pope. In order to satisfy his ambitions, Roderigo offers up Cesare's infant soul to the devil. As Cesare grows older, he's parted from the only two people who care for him, and begins to think that power is the only thing in the world that can satisfy him. And then, one day, the devil comes to seal the pact Roderigo made so long ago... This is Higuri's supernatural take on the lives of the corrupt Borgia family.

Comments: I have yet to read this and I don't think it's really a BL title, but for those who like Higuri Yuu's work/art, then this should be a good treat. I've stolen SiH's summary because I have no comments about it.

Edit (04.03.05): All files taken down.

These are more May/December stories than they are shotacon. The only shotacon (below 12 years old) title is the one by Dr. Ten.

If you're having problems downloading, please read [this post] to check if I've accidentally banned you from the FTP.

I could have given this a 'prostitution' theme instead of a may/december one, for all that it applies for three out of the six titles listed below.


Title: Confession
Mangaka: Naono Bohra
Scanlator: Shi-Ran
Download: oneshot
Buy: Jpqueen | Amazon
Comments: Not my favorite from Naono Bohra (those come in Day 6), but still worth a look.


Title: Sim Bridal
Mangaka: Dr. Ten
Scanlator: Nakama
Download: oneshot
Buy: Jpqueen | Amazon
Comments: It's Dr. Ten. It's shota. I'm... not even sure why I put this up here, save that I thought shota and crossdressing fans might like it. :P


Title: Suki ni Naccha Ikenai Hito ♥
Mangaka: CJ Michalski
Scanlator: Hochuuami
Download: part 1 | part 2
Buy: Jpqueen | Amazon
Comments: Definitely my favorite from what I've read so far of CJ Michalski's stuff. Some lines make me twitch, but the overall makes me actually enjoy reading it again. The sister helped me to like it more than I normally would have I think, as I have a weakness for sibling relationships. (It doesn't always have to be yaoicest, you know. ;P)


Title: Soshite Koi ga Hajimaru
Mangaka: Yumeka Sumomo / Tsukimura Kei
Scanlator: mochi mochi
Download: ch. 01 / 02 / 03 / 04
Buy: Amazon: vol. 1 / vol. 2 (Links to the novels and not the manga.)
Comments: Another Yumeka Sumomo work, this was actually based on a novel written by Tsukimura Kei. Translator notes at the end of the fourth chapter talks more about the manga (or lack thereof) vs the novel. The pace is slow and it cuts off before we can even see a development between the casual acquaintances type of relationship. Those who can read Japanese well enough to read the novels would probably be best off than most others.


Title: Natsu Jikan (Summertime Memory) ♥
Mangaka: Kunieda Saika
Scanlator: Loveless
Download: oneshot
Buy: Jpqueen | Amazon
Comments: ;_; I'll admit to not being impressed overly much (though I loved the narrative style) while reading this until I got to the ending. And then WHAM, take a place on my favorites list you STUPID ONESHOT WHO NEEDS A SEQUEL NOWNOWNOW! People who get turned off by the rugged seme should suck it up and finish reading!


Title: Last Client ♥♥♥!!! DOWNLOAD!
Mangaka: Takashima Kazusa
Scanlator: Shi-Ran (continued by Nakama)
Download: ch. 01 / 02 / 03 / 04 / 05 / 06 / 07
Buy: Amazon (They have it listed, but I don't think it was ever released.)
Comments: Takashima Kazusa needs to be voodood a thousand times over for this piece. This is hands down, my favorite out of her works. It has a rugged seme ex-spoiler who smokes and acts like a complete dork and is just the coolest of her characters ever. And pretty boy uke prostitutes who do not kill us all by wallowing in annoying angst. It has enough angst, and coolness, and cuteness and it will have you looking for sparkly shoujo bubbles because you are not allowed to gush and squee like a shameless fangirl without the shoujo bubbles, except you do because it cannot be helped. And I like her art very much. My icon is courtesy of this series.

PS. This entry took forever because I ended up rereading Last Client and forgot all about posting it. And then I wanted to make a new icon before posting...

Edit (04.03.05): All files taken down.

'WTF?!' you wonder. This is the product of my boredom, my new toy (the FTP server) and the fact that I don't have new music to pimp out. Holy Week started yesterday (or today, depending on which part of the globe you're in), and over here, this usually means processions and fiestas and visits to vacation spots (beaches!) and days with no tv if you don't have cable. For me it means I am not as busy this week, especially since the World Bex ended yesterday and I can take a break and no longer worry about it.

So, a new release for each day of Holy Week, for those who don't celebrate it, it just means 7 days of new BL manga daily. For those who do, it means I'm going to hell. :P morphaileffect suggested I name each day after one of the seven sins, and while the sins don't really correspond with the themes, I thought it would be a fun addition.

Day 1 is appropriately named sloth, as I'm sharing new releases because I am too lazy to think up a suitable theme when I should have posted this yesterday. I'm just posting to complete the 7 days. These are select new releases. I have not read any of them save for Himitsu.

Title: Himitsu
Mangaka: Haruno Mami
Scanlator: Nakama
Download: v.02 ch.05 | v.02 ch.06
Buy: Amazon: vol 1 | vol 2 (not in stock)

It's odd, I don't even particularly like the story, at least I don't think I do, but it's one of the few titles I read new chapters of when it comes out.


Title: Bishounen no Koi
Mangaka/Author: Kido Sakura / Yon Fan / Mizuta Naho
Scanlator: Obsession
Download: ch. 01
Buy: Jpqueen | Amazon

Based on the movie of the same name.


Title: Hybrid Child
Mangaka: Nakamura Shungiku
Scanlator: mochi mochi
Download: v.01 ch.01
Buy: Amazon

Have yet to read, but given the author I don't doubt that it's at least worth trying out.


Title: Okane ga Nai
Mangaka: Kousaka Tooru
Scanlator: Forever-More
Download: v.03 ch.15
Buy: Jpqueen | Amazon

This is popular enough I think, so I don't have to say anything about it. I lost interest after the first few chapters, though I like the twins. XD If someone tells me something happens between them I'll pick this title up again in a heartbeat.


Off to do day two.

Edit (04.03.05): All files taken down.

My arcina.com domain refuses to let me connect to upload stuff, and my ravinred.net domain is no more, so I don't have a site to dump files in. So I opened an FTP server instead! ^___^ Other than the initial hassle of setting it up, now I just have to click and drag to the folder whenever I want to pimp something out, instead of having to upload it to a webhost.

I was originally going to share the rest of the Love Mode scanlations, but I don't feel like sharing them anymore. I refuse to NOT share anything though, especially when it took me two hours to setup the FTP only to discover that a great deal of the time I was fretting over OMFGWHYAREYOUNOTWORKING!? was because I forgot to turn it ON and that my router and FTP settings were just dandy save for the fact that IT. WAS. NOT. ON.

And so, I share random BL scanlations I feel like sharing. Download links are behind the cut, because I require that you comment whenever I share scanlations. I am generally uncomfortable about sharing scanlations on my LJ (except I reallyreally want to share so I can't help it), so if I find that a great majority of people downloading are not commenting I will stop sharing scanlations or just lock the posts from now on.

Reminders:
1. Comment if you download.
2. I have restricted it to one connection per IP address. So it will not work if you try to download two files at once, or if you use a download manager that split files when it downloads. <- I don't know the term for this.

NOTICE (03.21.05 7am): FTP is back up. The address has changed, but the links have been updated.

Title: Harem de Hitori
Author: Hoshino Lily
Scanlator: Storm in Heaven
Buy: Amazon | JPQueen

I am so very tempted to share everything out for this volume, but it's been licensed by [Digital Manga] and I am hoping people who read this like it enough to buy it when the manga is released. (And the Japanese one too if you're feeling up to it. ;D) It's only one volume, so it won't hurt your wallet as much as other titles.

Hoshino Lily is one of the very few mangaka who've made me like BL stories with very feminine (uke) characters. I tend to skip/skim, generally not like stories like that, but she makes up for it with her storytelling. Harem de Hitori is a collection of oneshot stories whose main selling-point for me was its fairytale atmosphere. The story starts with the line, "This is an old, old story." I was smitten the moment I read it.


Title: Chou ni naru hi
Author: Yumeka Sumomo
Scanlator: mochi mochi
Buy: Amazon | JPQueen

One of the other few that made me like a story despite the overly feminine male character. One of the first things one must know about me and my taste in anything, be it books/fanfic/movies or my BL manga, is that I succumb very quickly when I like the general atmosphere of what I'm reading/watching. It doesn't have to be a great story, it just has to impress upon in little ways.

The first is Yumeka-sensei's art. It isn't gorgeous, but it's beautiful the way dreamy, wispy art tends to be beautiful, and her writing goes right along with her artstyle. And I like how she panels, it's striking even without dialogue. It's a painfully sweet story of a boy near death due to an illness and another who is said to be able to 'hear' when someone will die.


Title: Hiteii Renai Ron and Zettai Renai Shugi
Series: Eyeshield 21 doujinshi (Shin x Sena)
Circle: Negahyst
Scanlator: Neutral

Because Eyeshield 21 is my newest obsession. M is already on my case about spending money on ES21 doujinshi when I should be buying myself a new scanner, and a VGA adapter and and... you get the idea. ;D Oh, but I do need a new scanner, so I can scan in the pretty doujinshi.

Anyhow, Negahyst art is gorgeous, as I'm sure a lot of people already know. I don't even like the Shin x Sena pairing, but they make me like it. They even make me like serious ES21 doujinshi.


And that's all, because I don't really feel up to pimping a lot after the whole frustration with the FTP server. BUT DOWNLOAD! Because I will cry if the server doesn't get used. ;_;

OR IF ANYONE WANTS TO PIMP ME SOME RANDOM THINGS!
You can do so by uploading stuff at: ftp://iama:minion@210.213.145.2:2100/ but that only works if you're using IE. Otherwise you'll have to use an ftp client. The following correspond with the address above. User:pass@host:port

Help me have fun with my newest "toy"~! ;P

Edit: If you're having trouble downloading/uploading, do tell. As I'm not sure how well the FTP connects with outside connections. I did ask Athene and Debbie to try it out right after I set it up, but feedback from others would be great so I know if I need to change configuration.

Note: IP address logging has been activated. Apologies to everyone, but this allows me to track people who do not comment and ban their leecher asses from my FTP. I'm the only one who can see the IP addresses anyway, so no worries.

Edit (04.03.05): All files taken down.

I understand there's a BT out for this, though I've no idea where it is, and people seem to have problems downloading the whole thing. As I'm pretty sure there are people on my flist who've been wanting to see new LM chapters I've uploaded the latest one released by Sakura Crisis.

[ Love Mode v.08 ch.04 ]

Comment if you download please. It's only polite.

Edit (02.23.05): Love Mode chapter reuploaded, due to certain pages being corrupted during the previous file upload. Please tell me if there are further problems with the chapter.

Now, since I'm feeling not very generous, I'm going to just inform people who actually commented that they downloaded about the change. *mutter*
