Finishing up series, and moving forward.
» Posted June 11th, 2007 by psi29a
T-minus 11 days and counting down till another Berserk is out in Japan. Given that the team is almost finished up with their exams and course work, we are all ready to relax and enjoy our favorite mangas. The status on all of them are that we are working as time allows. We are shooting for a mega-release along with Berserk, that includes B.Reaction!, biomega, nhk, zetman, and ah. If the various teams feel that they are done, we will release earlier.
In the back of everyone’s mind here is where to proceed after NHK and B.Reaction! are finished. No plans are definite, but there are a few mangas out there that have tickled our fancy. However, if you all have ideas feel free to post ’em.
Try to keep requests limited to non-licensed series and along the same EG theme we have going on here unless you can justify it. Also, be aware if we do pick up another series, it will be something that we all want to work on rather than what is popular.
There are also more comics on the way as well, fuji has been a very very busy person as of late. In the mean time, hang tight and the manga goodness will come soon.
edit: another stipulation for manga requests is that they be not currently scanlated by other groups.

Welcome to another weekend installment of your Angel Heart and Zetman manga!
Torrents:
We of course are still waiting for Berserk like the rest of you, but we are currently hard at work on our other projects. We have the translation drafts of the Biomega 21-22 and will start work on proofing and editing there. NHK has 4 people working on it at the moment, 3 translators and myself will be offered up as the sacrificial editor (i’ll do my best). As you may or may not have heard, NHK finishes up on chapter 40 so this will probably be our first completed project! The reason it is taking so long is that NHK is notoriously difficult to translate in comparison to our other work due to pop culture and pseudo-psychological and scientific terms and rather long dialog. None the less, it is being worked on. We also now have all the raws for B.Reaction! and have started into them now.
Also, we have upgraded the forums (very spiffy i might add), so stop on by and mingle with the regulars. There is plenty of things to chat about.

We have a bit of good news and a bit of bad news. Good news is that we have more Berserk for you all, yay! We also have a metric ass-ton of Zetman and an Angel Heart as well. So, this leads up to the bad news. 286 of Berserk won’t be out in Japan till June 22nd. Yes yes, we know… it makes us a bit sick too. We will keep on keeping on and fill the berserk-less gap with other manga. So remember, the sooner you guys can find us the raws for B.Reaction! 10-14, the sooner we can turn it around to you all with a translation. So far, our two leads in Japan have turned up nothing thus far. *sigh*

Edit/Update:
Attention to those who use Peer Guardian!
It has come to our attention that Peer Guardian blocks our tracker. This hurts you all and we are not happy about it either. We have submitted a request to remove the filter for our tracker but in the mean time, per their FAQ entry:
Q) PeerGuardian is blocking my favorite site! How do I unblock it?
A) Right click in the log and add it to your permanent allow list.
So, if you have having troubles connecting tracker, but you can reach this page then either:
There is nothing realistic we can do to fix the above problems. Good luck.

Evil_Genius Comic with a Berserk 285 Preview
» Posted April 24th, 2007 by psi29a
Considering the amount of craziness that goes on in the forums, we just had to make our own comic based on the events that transpire there. Fuji has offered to help us chronical the madness, so I present to you all, Evil_Genius’ very own web-comic!
*points to new tab at the top*
We started off with 3 comics up front to get things rolling, and for now it will be infrequent. The core of the artwork and story is Fuji and editing done by LordMune.
The comic starting from page 1!
This update isn’t over yet, it’s time for another timely Berserk preview!
第285話 英雄
Chapter 285: Hero
Enjoy!
edit: We now have the 285 raw and. Cleaning and double-page editing is almost complete, we are now waiting for translation and typesetting.

For those who do not know, Killfile and psi29a both work at the VTCRC on Virginia Tech’s campus. So the reason for the non-manga news is that it was easiest way to get the information that we know to you all and our loved ones, especially those who wake up at Virginia Tech and read Evil_Genius so they can get the fuck out of there.
Killfile’s wife teaches on Tech’s campus and more importantly she has taught in Norris. She also had TAs scheduled to teach in that particular classroom, 205 and 206. So we are all spooked, tired, worn out, and have been helping any way we can. Killfile and I (and our office) went to the convocation yesterday to morn with our fellow Hokies and I’ll post more pictures in the forums.
However, this does not put a damper the spirit of Evil_Genius as we pushing forward. Translation work of Biomega 21 is almost done, translation of AH is done, and we are going to start on NHK 37 and 38 soon. One of our own is in Japan right now, enjoying himself and also on the lookout for the missing B. Reaction chapters we need to complete the series.
So, we continue to soldier on and many thanks to all of those who offered their thanks and condolances. If anyone wants to stop by Blacksburg, we would be more than happy to share our beer with everyone.
Long live EG!
Go HOKIES!
