Tamu - Edited Neko Haseon-san Images
(Revised: 2013/11/12) - Download Links Repaired (Re-Uploaded); Mirror Link Added & Font Adjustments
Hey Friends! Today we have a few things we'd like to share with you. Today's 'blog update images' are by the artist Tamu, who did a really cute set of Neko-Haseo images from .Hack//G.U., I didn't have the time to translate the story line so I just clipped (cropped) the cute parts and eventually I will do the story line behind these images. If you want to download these edited images you can click the links below, they are bigger than what's represented here. Isn't Neko-Haseo so cute and sexy? XD
Now on to the business of the day;
Firstly, one of our Translator / Editors, Frost, has moved on in his life, while he may produce work under his original translation name Tenshi-Nyow - his participation in the world of translations has taken a hiatus due to real life circumstances. We at Hataraki Bachi thank him for all his hard work and help he has offered while being a part of our group. The best of luck to you Frost in all of your endeavors in life. Sadly, this is a thing that happens, not everyone stays in this for the long haul and Frost was a Translator and Editor for many years but eventually real-life does take precedent over all else.
Secondly, the Hataraki Bachi: Busy Bee wesbite we were going to transfer to has been scrapped. While the site will remain as it is partly unfinished (Until Google, or us delete it) however, there will be nothing further done to it.
Hany has come up with a much better idea. Here is where we welcome our new partner site on Tumblr.
This site is excellent for those that wish to just get our translations and do not wish to participate in the polls, updates and all the filler in between. Hany made the Tumblr site look absolutely amazing and we highly recommend you check it out. It is a sister site, here at the blog is where you will find the most up-to-date information on the releases, blog and status of Hataraki Bachi: Busy Bee Translations. However, as stated, it's a wonderful site for those that wish to just download the books, unfortunately, the Tumblr site will not include the Blog Update image packs or other small things that we release here and there - it is primarily for full books and image sets. Again though, the Tumblr site is absolutely wonderful for certain people while it may not be for everyone it is still a great idea. Both the blog and Tumblr site will be updated as pretty much simultaneously so those that choose to use either or will not be left out of the loop of our translations.
Now, we have already stated works in progress but there are two more projects added to the list now that are in "rush" order. Being translated and edited by Hany and Boutoku we have two wonderful books to be coming out soon. (Really a third one by me (Dari-kun) but a lot of this third one must remain secret until the release date as it IS a gift but omg I want to share stuff about it SOOO much).
So interested to know what our next two releases are going to be? They are as follows. Now, don't forget, there will be image sets and all sorts of other goodies released in between so don't forget to check here frequently so you don't miss anything!
First up is Hoshino Fuuta [Puchiya] - Heat Land. Which is a FULL-COLOR 14 page straight shota book in the glory we have come to love from Hoshino Fuuta. This particular story features an adorable shota on the beach with an older woman. The story is extremely cute and I just love it - I look forward to showing you all the finished version which isn't too far off now! I am absolutely amazed at the progress and quickness, not to mention quality this story has taken on since it was first discussed that they would be doing it. Below is the cover.

See? So cute, ne?
Up next is actually a follow up book to a book we released not too long ago. It's by Takase Yuu - Danji Report: Review, which is the second book of Takase Yuu's Dangiger Ranger's "Report Book" series. It Takase's second parody of the "Kyushu Sentai Danjigers" This book looks amazing as well and will be released a little after the Hoshina Fuuta book. Which, judging by the speed of the above book won't be too far off. This is the cover of the book below.

As you can see the front cover features the same Danjiger Ranger - Red (Kousuke Fukuoka) as in the other Danji-Report book we translated which can be found under here.
Well, there is more we have going on, as shown in our last blog update but these things needed to be mentioned and some things should just be left to surprise. We can't give away all our little surprises and secrets, then things just wouldn't be as fun! XD This about wraps up our Blog Update for now and we hope you guys are looking forward to our next releases and keep checking back as I will reiterate one more time, this is not all we have coming out, you never know what may wind up on our home-page. All it takes is a little while and a quick inspiration and *BAM* an unplanned translation or image set has just appeared.
As always, we appreciate you taking the time to read our updates and more importantly we appreciate your dedication, you as our fans and visitors play a large role in the success of our group. Remember to always try to participate in our polls and don't forget to check back for new updates and releases (unless you're on RSS feeder) otherwise you won't know when something new is released. Unfortunately with real-life, translation and editing can not be given exact deadlines. This is a hobby of ours, if we start making deadlines then it loses it's fun and becomes work and no one wants to work after work or school XD Thanks again for your loyalty and we look forward to sharing more wonderful translations with you all!

I applaud not going with Google for the site. Since they no longer take the privacy of their users seriously it could have been a very bad decision to have a site like this on their servers.
I am glad that all of you take your time with the translations, editing and anything else that is involved with the mangas and image sets. No point in making the projects feel like work.
On another note: Dari, I believe I just came across an image set that I'd like to see translated. It's 20 images though so it may be too big to do quickly or any time soon: http://www.pixiv.net/member_illust.php?mode=medium&

Shotafan,
I was a a bit worried about having a site like this on google too, shota is such a gray area - especially online because some areas allow it while others don't so it's tricky.
The objective is to share our material with as many people as possible (that are allowed to view it of course) while maintaining an "under the radar" status if that makes any sense to you.
Plus, personally I just like the feel and look of the blog, it's an easy to maintain system and I'm familiar with it XD
The tumblr site is awesome though I definitely recommend you poke around it, Hany did a great job!
I looked at that image set and it's definitly something interesting, It seems to be like a Shota Art set, like teaching you drawing techniques. I'll do it at some point soon for you since it's not too much work, I would like to see what the artist has to say in detail too. Definitely wasn't what I was expecting from the cover pic, but the art style is cool, it's Mitsui Jun-esque while maintaining his own style, Cool Stuff and thanks for sharing!
Wow it's been a while since I see the Danji rangers. I believe you're the first, and the only one, who recognizes and translates the boys :D
Speaking of which, there's a clone!! http://www.pixiv.net/member_illust.php?mode=manga&illust_id=26905916 Dude, seriously, the Danji rangers' popularity's rising up.
JAKE, That was a wonderful set - thak you for sharing it with us, the Danji-Rangers are really cute and cool, there have been a lot of parodies since they were first offically released last summer and since then they have boomed. This image set you shared with us is a perfect example of just how popular the series has become, it's not easy to do such HQ images (for free btw - although it may lure in Commissions). If you click the number next to the image you get the full sized image which is even bigger, I was surprised but something just told me to check. I saved the set, maybe we'll do it one day but it's definately cool. I'm glad to share in the excitement of the Danjiger Rangers with you and keep poking around, there's A LOT of cool stuff featuring them. My personal favorite from the set you showed us is Brown, or Blue ... I think brown :P they're all cool/cute though!
Dari-kun,
Thank you so much for replying :D (I didn't expect a response,really)
So far, the danji rangers are popular among shota fans and shota-featured sites. There's only a certain group of Japanese cosplayers doing them; 2 different groups specifically. One group I found posed with the stores, probably hired mascot performers. The others exhibited during a tokyo con.
I was thinking of cosplaying as Danji Kumamoto (green!), being the first foreign cosplayer doing that :D but I don't have much experience in a shota outlook..
Thanks again for the share!!
Jake,
First, I almost always reply XD so don't worry about that. As for your cospla of Kumamoto, I say go for it!
My bf made me a really cute Neko Len cosplay and I wear it all the time (at events ... and sometimes if we're feeling extra frisky..XD) but obviously, Len is a shota figure so I can imagine what people think XD
I was thinking of making a purple danji ranger cosplay, that would be cool, I think you should make it - it would be original.
At least you wouldn't be one the the 30 Colonel Mustangs at the event. I hate store bought cosplay soooo~ much! The whole point is to make it yourself, yeah you may need to buy accessories and other official items but the best cosplay I have seen to date follow what I just said.
