Repercussion
Target online manga. Attack in motion.
Yup, it’s with unsettlement that we see this in Onemanga:
“There is an end to everything, to good things as well.” It pains me to announce that this is the last week of manga reading on One Manga (!!). Manga publishers have recently changed their stance on manga scanlations and made it clear that they no longer approve of it. We have decided to abide by their wishes, and remove all manga content (regardless of licensing status) from the site. The removal of content will happen gradually (so you can at least finish some of the outstanding reading you have), but we expect all content to be gone by early next week (RIP OM July 2010). So what next? We’re not really sure at this point, but we have some ideas we would like to try out. Until then, the One Manga forums will remain active and we encourage all of you to continue using them. OMF has developed into a great community and it would be a shame to see that disappear. You can also show us some love in this moment of sadness by ‘liking’ our brand new Facebook page. It would be nice to see just how many of you came to enjoy our ‘better than peanut butter and jelly’ invention. Regardless of whether you stay with us or not, on behalf of the One Manga team, I would like to thank you all for your unwavering support over the years. Through the ups and downs you have stuck with us, and that is what kept us going. As a certain Porky was fond of saying… That’s all folks! Time for me to go lay down and let this all sink in. - Zabi I can say that I’m feeling rather uncomfortable with this, but I’m more upset by the fact they are destroying something of importance in the worldwide manga nowadays, the online community. Even though it won’t cease, it’s always difficult to see a part of it being disgraced, people’s good will forsaken. I start to dare to wonder if freedom is a sin. But let’s get updated with some news shall we? Ouji to Majou to Himegimi to is Matsuzuki Kou’s, creator of Shiawase Kissa Sanchoume (aka Happy Cafe), new series. The first volume has been released in July 16th and managed to top 25 in Oricon’s 3rd week (12-18) of July chart. The project is labeled as Active in Intercross’s scanlation group website (yay). Read online here (jap preview), page here. [...] Ciel (as Alice) is bored reading a report in his room one day when he spies his butler Sebastian wearing rabbit ears. Ciel follows The White Rabbit (who is muttering “I’m late, I’m late”) down a hole into Wonderland. The rest of the cast appears as The Mouse (Elizabeth), The Dodo (Paula), The Fish-Footman (Bardroy), The Frog-Footman (Finnian), The Flamingo (Maylene), The Hedgehog (Tanaka), The Mock Turtle (Viscount of Druitt), The Duchess (Soma Asman Kadar), The Cook (Agni), The Cheshire Cat (Grell Sutcliffe), and others. [..] Weekly Shonen Magazine’s 33rd 2010 issue announced the special edition of Air Gear manga will contain an original animation dvd (OAD) called “Air Gear: Kuro no Hane to Nemuri no Mori -Break on the Sky-” and it will feature the Ikki vs. Ringo confront contained in the 16th volume of the manga. However, this OAD’s cast and staff are different from the 2006′s anime version. Thanks ANN and Anime News.biz for the information. RELATED POSTS
Anyway, I’m not really fond of where, especially how this is going but enough QQ, I won’t discuss it any further, my opinion can be found here. Let us hope all publishers adopt and put efforts in online manga (as Tokyopop did *thumb up*).
Squeal away because Supernatural is getting an anime adaptation. The website announced the premiere in January 2001 and the protagonist’s character sheets have been spread in this LJ community. Official anime website here.
The third DVD of Kuroshitsuji II, scheduled to be released in 2010/11/24, will contain an OVA besides the 4th TV episode called “Welcome to the Phantomhive Family”, which will be seen from the viewer’s perspective, similar to romance visual novels.
Another already announced OVA called “Ciel in Wonderland (part 1)”, also contained in the second DVD of the series which is scheduled to be released in 2010/10/27, is going to feature the series characters in a recreation of Lewis Carrol’s Alice in Wonderland:
