Well, it's not right to call them 'the end' exactly...Street of Mysteries has one more volume, but we can only get it in French. If someone would like to translate it (and if anyone else can scan it), we'd love to see it done.
As is, though, here we are:
Mysteries Chapter 6
And the short epilogue Mysteries 7
Now the final two Kuuki No Soko stories!
I sure had fun with these...Tezuka short stories are always a blast
15
And 16
And Kuuki No Soko Complete
And Street Of Mysteries complete
I hope you liked the short stories. Our translator for these will be continuing on to another Tezuka series I'm sure everyone here will love (a very great seinen by him), and his other project should be in the editing phases by Illuminati Manga now.
As always, I resubmit my request for cleaners, typesetters and translators. It'll really help a lot of projects.
I'm also sure a lot of you want to know about Yawara: Village Idiot was working off Kai Boh's old scripts. Stargood will continue on with his own translations.
Oh, and don't forget to go buy a copy of The Crater! There are only 2000 of them and they're going fast, and it'll show everyone we want more Tezuka in English!
HappyScans!
Don't worry, be happy.

Spider-Man by Ikegami with Hokuto No Gun, volumes 2-5 (END)
Alright...it's been a while for this one. Mainly as Morten of GWR stabbed us in the back and never bothered to do his part in this after we translated it. And cleaned it. And bought raws he was going to scan. But never did. Gotta love honest, reliable people, huh?? Still, we make it a policy to get stuff done eventually, so here we are. Done. And dear lord, thanks to the people who stuck with this, especially a1oner who was a damned CHAMPION on this monstrosity.
Really, the idea of a Japanese adaptation of Spider Man has potential. Potential utterly wasted after a few chapters. The delusions of violent grandeur are bad enough, but our hero is an unlikable little prick who rarely solves situations when he has a rather open chance which usually results in someone else paying the price as he babbles futilely about some nonsense. Very few characters are likable, the social messages are heavy handed and some scenes are plain freaking bizarre (masturbation scene comes to mind).
and because it's Spider-Man, instead of fighting the Green Goblin, The Chameleon, the Lizard, Doctor Octopus? We get to see him fight....disgruntled Vietnam veterans and marijuana dealers. Yeah, Marijuana bizarrely becomes the tool of Satan in this manga. And the manga may contain little to no Spider-Man.
Anyways, I'm glad this is over. We really could use editors and cleaners for some series now, and translators as well. Kekko Kamen and Vagabond could use the editing help and we have some series that could use aid with cleaning. Maybe a new one or two that could require more staff and more planned projects in need of a translator.
Also, have a look at this project

It's a great new company, aiming to publish Tezuka's The crater, a book of short stories. there are only 2000 copies to sell so please lend support and we can see more great Tezuka works published by these guys. Everyone's gotta start somewhere, so let's all make it happen!
And for Spider Man...
Volume 2
Volume 3
Volume 4
Volume 5
And it's done.

Tiger Mask, chapters 7 and 8
Well, this's a mite embarrassing...
Quoting Chaos: " Okay so due to a bit of a clerical error, chapter 7 was skipped and chapter 8 was mistakenly released as chapter 7. We apologize for the oversight. So if you downloaded the previous release of “chapter 7″ please download this chapter 7 and rename your current chapter 7 as chapter 8! Then that’ll take you all the way to the end of the fight with Black Python, and what a fight it is…"
So any online readers, just replace these.
here's 7
And 8

The Way Of Ryu, chapter 15 and Volume 2 complete
Here's Chapter 15
And the complete volume 2!
AAA has returned to us with this beautiful manga at last! Let's keep our fingers crossed he can keep up! But 2 down, six to go!
Ryu has discovered the horrible truth of the Tower Of Harvest, but what now? God has a theory (sorry, God has a freaking dissertation on the subject), and we see a new character arrive...
Enjoy, everyone! And remember, we would love more typesetters and cleanes!
