I say "monthly" because this issue was from a month ago. One of the team members says that getting the magazines have been problematic, which I can attest to right now, since I'm getting B&W's first chapter from a Taiwanese store.Anyways, you can read this chapter here. I sent a message asking for raws, but my requests with Chinese scanners always go unnoticed. Perhaps I should ask again once I get B&W chapter so I can have something to bargain with. There are two groups scanning Pokemon Special in Chinese ("特别特别汉化组" and "时代汉化组"), and this group isn't scanning volume 36, so my raws might not be enough leverage for them.
Also, in retrospect, I should have composed my message in Simplified Chinese instead of Traditional Chinese.
Dang that looks awesome, but I don't want to decipher all of the text >-<
ReplyDeleteDoes writing in Simplified really help?

ReplyDeleteBy first B/W chapter, do you mean the one of Araragi in her office last month with the starters, or the 'second' chapter of Black in Huin City searching for Zorua? Either way I'm excited though, since Coronis has yet to give us pictures for last month's chapters. ^o^ I'm actually quite glad we'll get the magazine releases too after all! Since everything that's in them probably won't come out via volumes in Japan 'til a year or two anyway. Even just RAWs of them all would be good enough for me.~
ReplyDeleteAnd great translation Simon! Thank you~ I really appreciate it! If it's not too hard on you please translate the rest of it tomorrow if you can and don't mind.~ I'm sure we'd all really appreciate it.
I..love..you /a/non...and these guys for scanning this
