Hey guys fist time posting/reading this forum, but a long time dynasty scans reader.

So lately since I've bought almost all licensed yuri mangas over the us I felt like I wanted to expand my collection and started buying some japanese manga. I bought 3 titles all of which haven't been translated by any scanlation group as far as I know and would love to know if some groups are willing to take them up for projects.

The first one and probably my favorite is "Nettai-gyo wa Yuki ni Kogareru" or "A tropical fish yearns for snow" by Makoto Hagino. The first volume just released the 26th of december and oh my god I just can't stop drooling over the beautiful artwork it has (https://i.imgur.com/yaOVPsa.jpg). It kinda reminds me of YagaKimi.

Second is "Adachi to Shimamura" which is a manga adapted from a light novel by Hiroma Iruma and the art is done by Mani. A really cute story about two "rebels" who don't like going to class and rather spend their time fooling around doing cute things. Just look at these scenes: https://i.imgur.com/zXX4Fb6.jpg - https://i.imgur.com/PyR8brx.jpg and tell me you wouldn't love to read this.

Last but not least is "Hare no Kuni no Appare-dan" by Takeshima Eku. I bought it cause the cover looked really nice but this is the hardest one for me to say anything about since my japanese is very basic and most of the kanji in the manga doesn't have the little hiragana next to them. Still has some really nice artwork.

So yeah I'd love to see if some group could pick these manga up as a project for the community to enjoy them as much as I have or maybe even more! Sorry if it's not cool to ask these kinda things here.

It's allowed, but probably better in the scanlator recruiting thread stickied at the top.

Dynasty itself hasn't done translations in quite a while, so not sure how much interest you'll get. But good luck anyway.

Although Nettai-gyo wa Yuki ni Kogareru is pretty good, just a reminder to not expect yuri out of it that's not subtext. The reader where it's available has actually yuri works with yuri tag, but this one is tagged as friendship.

There's subtext, though, and I think the mangaka is a yuri fan, so who knows.

Appare-dan I found pretty mediocre, and the ending actually bothers me, even more as it's a series on a yuri magazine.

Nettai-gyo is weird because yeah it's not listed as Yuri or Shoujo-ai by MAL or Bakaupdates but people like yurinavi on twitter seem to promote it as yuri. Also it's being sold on the yuri section on the Animate stores in japan (https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DSLkHJ2U8AEoaC-.jpg). So here's to hoping it turns out as a nice yuri story!

^Shinmai Shimai Gohan is also promoted as yuri manga and so far it's not yuri at all. Japanese will tag anything yuri if there is:
1. No het romance or crush.
2. Friendship between two main girls.
2. Fanservice (blushing, "dates," kisses, groping).

Yurinavi promote subtext series as well. The subtext is probably intentional, but I doubt it'll go full yuri.

On the other side, their relationship is developed almost like the start of a romantic one, more than usual, so it could always happens.
