Stories of Sakuya - In the New World
Finally finished this one. Lot's more dialogue than the last two so it took more total work time. Also some more re-drawing. I hope I did okay on that part...
Don't really have much to say about the chapter. I think it's funny how the author makes the Scarlet Mist incident just a screw up on Remilia's part.
Anyway, on to the next one.
*Edit*
Just my luck, going through this chapter again I noticed a screwup on one of the redraws. Really tiny, but really bugged me once I noticed it. Updated the download link with the fix, probably not even noticeable at a glance but I couldn't leave it alone.

Stories of Sakuya - Queen of the Night
Keeping the momentum going, here's chapter 5 of Ichinose's Stories of Sakuya. When I first glanced through this chapter I was a little disappointed with the pacing towards the end. A little too quickly wrapped up with not much explanation. But I guess it's for the best. In a series titled 'Stories of Sakuya,' you don't really want to use too much of the story focusing on the problems around the rest. I just wish Tarou had realized that before he made that such a big part of the setup.
One translation note: When Meiling breaks through the floor, the kanji is read in Japanese as "ha" and the meaning was akin to a type of school or discipline, yet it seems like she was just letting out a kind of battle yell. Since they bothered to add a meaning to her yell I thought adding the Chinese reading, Pai, would not only go well with China-san but would also keep the idea that what she yelled actually meant something instead of just having her yell "Ha!" I hope it works...
Anyway, the next chapter 'In the New World' might take a little longer. It's a lot more dialogue heavy than the last two. But it's coming.

Stories of Sakuya - Magic Garden
For my first attempt at a translation, I decided to start with something simple.
Ichinose’s
‘stories of sakuya’ has been floating around for a couple of years with
only the first three chapters translated and the fourth was short but
sweet so it seemed a perfect choice. Apologies, but I left the
author‘s ‘afterward’ untranslated.
About the chapter; it’s always nice to see a KouMaKan based story where Meiling doesn’t end up with a bunch of knives sticking out of her head. even though it makes me laugh every time ^_^; Loli
Sakuya is cute but I still liked seeing how she and Meiling interacted in the first chapter. I’d
like to see more of that. In good time I suppose.
