The art in the prologue was crazy, kinda sad it changed. Even then, there were still some really cool things going on.

Seems like an interesting start.

Yes, this is just an abrupt one-shot.

Converted to an anthology because derp on my part.

The first story is a two-shot with a bonus extra that is yet to be translated, the rest are unrelated.

Morishima art transcends your petty tags! Let her stories go naked into the world!!

Actually this.

I don't really know much about this story, so tag suggestions are welcome for those who know more.

Arguably the funniest panel of all time.

Also; first time I've ever seen a faceless female. Absolute craziness.

Fixed, thanks!

also are these from different artists?

That does appear to be the case...a quick search turns up nothing for me, at least.

^Correct.

Ah, yeah, direct linking via editing the descriptions would be one way to go about it. The other would be programatically adding a "related categories" list to each page. Either way would mean an increase of work for somebody so I didn't want to specify a method explicitly.

Glad I understood. I had a similar thought yesterday(?) when there was a discussion taking place, wanted to see if we were on the same page or not.
Might go ahead and do it the next couple days then.

How is it not a doujin of Sakura Trick when they are quite obviously the girls from the series?

Because it's published and endorsed by the company behind Sakura Trick. Doujinshi are a firm step below that, completely unofficial.

I wouldn't say this is just a doujin and anthology issue though, because you can't access a series' doujin or anthology pages from even the main series page either. Although this is just my opinion, what I would suggest is more direct linking between related categories rather than any merging of two together.

If I'm understanding correctly, you're interested in more series being treated like Saki?

Though it may ultimately be a band-aid solution, official anthologies could be directly linked to (but not filed under) from the main series page and the doujins page. Not the prettiest(?), but I do think this would improve both visibility and properly link together related series/anthologies/whatever without improperly classifying anything.

Why isnt this listed as a Sakura Trick doujin?

Cause...it isn't. It's complicated and there's some disagreement in terms of how we're supposed to categorize these things. We'll figure it out some day.

Arent they normally tagged with the pairing? Yuu x Haruka or something?

For now, assume all stories in this anthology will have the same themes and pairings as the main series, the latter of which will not be tagged.

Abandoned seems more apt, given the lack of info from Vexed on the issue.

Fixed, thanks!

The art really emphasized just how fluffy this was. The second part was great - the father's role was unexpectedly wondrous.

Fixed, thanks.

Though, Nez is correct. Errors are more likely to be dealt with in a timely manner if posted in that thread.

Finally a Bleu book makes it over. Very odd to me that this would be chosen over the multiple fluffy KyoSaya's they've done, but I do get why it was chosen instead.
Also; funniest afterword I've read so far this year, with some great art [on that particular page] to boot.

this should have seinen(adult life)& comedy tagged...
https://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=80693

We actually do our own tagging. While Comedy certainly seems to be a possibility - dunno, don't really follow this series much - Adult life is for manga centered around adults, and this being Seinen has no bearing on that.

Saya x Ritz OTP (seriously, "Dear"). Hideki is insane, and I love it.

(Also glad to see that the NSFW tag got removed, that'll save some people in the future)

Or get them in trouble...

Anyway, next chapter is really interesting. I don't even feel bad saying that, given how hyper-charged the translation has been.

I also like the sometimes weird tempo. It should be frustrating beyond belief for anyone eagerly awaiting chapters, but in retrospect, the stretching-to-plot ratio is very nice.

I'd suggest change status to Dropped.

If an active group has any intention of completing a project, it will be listed as "Ongoing". It's already been stated in this thread that Binbou is working on it.

Also, use the tag suggestion feature - drop-down in the upper right corner - to actually suggest things. That's much easier for us to take seriously than a forum post that we may or may not see for days.

Nice catch! Fixed.

Series is now "finished" as far as scanlation is concerned.

The last victim of the YK cancellation we'll be seeing anytime soon, one would imagine. Too bad really, Chako was too lovable to only get two chapters of content.

So... The real question is, is it yuri or subtext?

Anyone know what it's being serialized in, even? That could probably give the best heads up.

Josei web publication.

^Edited for spoiler tagging. Discussion of raws/untranslated chapters should have it.

Anyway, the crush was pretty obvious as of last chapter. This was probably my favorite of the series so far, if only because it did away with silly drama and focused on a nice moment between friends. It also gave me a bit of respect for Youko, who hasn't really had a chance to shine otherwise.

Awh i loved the special! nice to see a younger version + another view. Those two are adorable though and I'll take anything I can get...and one that note, is there anymore Candy specials?

Via the release post, "Another special from Candy and the last unscanlated piece I’m aware of. If you know whether vol. 2 had another special (and maybe even offer scans), please do tell."

Now marking this as Completed.

As for purchasing the manga, I only just got started buying raws with the Sakura Trick volumes a couple weeks ago; however, I'm thinking of making the plunge (not like there's a chance of this series getting licensed, I think). Probably I should look into some other yuri series in order to offset Amazon's shipping costs; Shinozaki-san not being available on other JP import sites is a bit unfortunate.

You can also grab it from Kinokuniya and Honto, as linked on Comet Scans' blog.
