Hello :)

I have one good news and one bad news to share regarding Dengeki Daisy.

GOOD NEWS: This chapter will leave you screaming in agony. I kid you not. You will be like "You damn phone! Why did you have to ring right there!!!" ;)

BAD NEWS: We've lost the translator that we previously got. Her life got rather topsy-turvy so she wants to sort that out first. Can't help it, no matter how much we want our life turn out like in the mangas, real life has got to be settled with first.

So I open the position for Dengeki Daisy's translator once again if anyone's interested. The person will get to translate form chapter 58 of the manga. Send me a personal email if you're interested :)

Okay, the good news is under  the cut :D

Hey hey hey ;)

This month's raws is so full of info that it makes me wonder the significance of it to the whole Walker arc and also how it fit into the whole President-is-a-maid thingy. As many have argued, the story line is rather steering away of the hardships of Misaki hiding the fact she's doing a job that would wound her reputation as a highly looked up student body president. I do agree to the matter; of it not focusing on the title; but isn't a well thought story line what we search when we read a a story? So my opinion on the matter is that even though the story is a bit jumping away from the actual plot, I would have to applaud the author for the thorough planning of the character's development. I really like the character development for both Misaki and Usui. Hats off to Fujiwara sensei :)

Okay, enough serious stuff, now on the raws!! This chapter focuses on the history of Usui being created (LOL) in the first place. Assuming he was a robot that was made-...wait. Oh I got fooled by Usui's cyborg story, forgive me :P

Kidding, we'll this chapter does look rather serious. It's a flashback of how Usui's father even got into Patricia Walker's life. He was actually a trainee butler that Gilbert brought from Japan. He was introduced to Patricia around the same time Edward was. I am assuming that Patricia marriage to Edward was strictly because there was a power struggle within the Walker family for a male heir. Because Patricia was a woman, she couldn't inherent the title as the head of the Walker clan; thus her marriage to Edward. She was fond of Edward but she was in love with Usui's father; Hirose Yuu. They were both in love with each other but being a responsible lady of the house, she agreed to marry Edward. She was then diagnosed with a terminal illness where she was kept away from the castle to live in a more healthy(?) environment. She asked Yuu to tend to her as her butler. She then got pregnant and the doctors wanted her to abort the pregnancy to make sure that she could live longer but she refused. She died a few days after giving birth.

I don't get the part of which Usui's question is the lineage is really important to Gerald (We have been spelling his name wrong this whole time!!) and he says that his mother said to protect the lineage no matter what. So we'll have to wait for the English version to fully understand what happened in Patricia's past. But I do wonder, what ever happened to Yuu after Patricia got pregnant? It was not mentioned in her diary. Maybe next chapter? who knows...

The Misaki learning etiquette was rather nice touch of humor to the seriousness of the whole chapter ^^ Tora was really enjoying himself wasn't he? XD

EDIT: Our friend thescowler has put up a detailed summary on this chapter. Go there now!! http://archaiceye.blogspot.com/2012/09/kwms-ch-75-detailed-summary.html?showComment=1348388050599#c3317626809557972918

On to the raws!!

On the final page, the are conducting a Usui Takumi look-alike contest!! So cool!! XD
Anyway, have fun with the raws.

See you guys next month! or I maybe posting a rambling post on my thoughts about the chapter.
Key word: MAYBE ;P

Hey yo!

I have a few thing I want to say about this chapter but I also want to be sure of what's happening before I ramble on about it. My Japanese is not as good and I only get a fraction of whats happening in this chapter. So let us all read the Englishversion before we make speculations :D

On to the raws!!

Announcement on KWMS and Dengeki Daisy

7 Chocolates
Hey guys!

I have an announcement to make (duh). Raws from me will be late this because I won't be in town when the magazines arrive. I will be in my mother's home town celebrating Eid. Will probably be back by Friday (24th) and will only be able to collect the magazines the next day. So don't freak out, the raws will eventually come. If the Chinese translations come out first, rejoice in them. But I do promise you guys that I will be posting the raws regardless :)

So have a blessed and Happy Eid to all Muslims around the world.
Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri!! :) Hold up on the ketupats, lemangs and rendang! Don't blow all your weight loss during Ramadhan. It'll be such a waste :p

KWMS 73 Ramblings

4 Chocolates
'Ello!!

I don't usually do this but I just feel that I have to get my theories and thoughts regarding the latest chapter off my chest. Not  only is the plot finally moving on, there are also a lot of hints and things questionable in chapter 73 that I just want to share. Feel free to disagree or agree or give any comments :D

So, after reading the latest chapter (chapter 73), I went through all kinds of crazy emotions; worried, schoked, WTF??, compelled, empathy. The situation is a lot more complicated that I thought it would be.Points from this chapter;

1) The Walkers live a in a freaking Castle!!
So the translators made a note on the bottom of the page that the castle was probably modeled after the Ravenscraig Castle in Scotland. I went "OMFG!! Usui is 1/4 Scottish!!! I wanna see him in a KILT!!! (Yes, I'm crazy like that). So I made the most logical thing to confirm this matter...I posted on Fujiwara-sensei's official FB page. And guess what?? I got a Reply!!! XDXDXD 

Yes, we crazy fan girls must see Usui Takumi in a kilt XD
So he's not a Scotsman*shurg*but the thought of it was nice. I have this weird fetish of men in Kilts, can you blame me? XD

For those who are wondering if this is like a parody page or something, I assure you it is not. Fujiwara-sensei has confirmed it. You can go here and like her page :D http://www.facebook.com/hirofujiwaralala


2) Grandpa Walker is a DUKE?? 
Just so you know, being a Duke doesn't make you Royalty. It just means that you are from a Noble family. You are only royalty if you are directly from the royal bloodline. Thanks to my friend Garfifi who informed me of so. Well, we do have monarchs in my country, but not the British kind so, I didn't know how that system works. I'm glad she told me so thank you Garfifi!!

3) Gerard's father is kinda...out-of-it?
Poor guy must have like totally lost it when Usui's mother went rouge (LOL). I mean he must have felt the pressure from his father-in-law (grandpa Walker) when the mother suddenly coming back from her trip pregnant with someone else's child. Or maybe he has always been that way, that's why Mama Usui had to get away?

4) Gerard is actually a good businessman o.o
Call me mean, but I've had always had this vision that Gerard was actually kinda....not up to par when handling business. So that was why they needed Usui back apart from him being sick. Maybe because I read to much fanfiction portraying Gerard as a useless fool. I deeply apologize Gerard-sama. BTW you are kinda hot when you're angry XD

5) Grandpa Walker is sick, Gerard is sick, the Marquis is out-of-it...
Sad story, they are indeed in desperate need of a fit successor to uphold the family name....

6) If Gerard can get Ceddy's papa to go as far as to lie to the Duke, means that Gerard is pretty much the man of the house.
A butler is no way allowed to defy his master's command. That means the real man in power is Gerard because the head butler listens to him instead of the Duke.


7) Gerard said "cute grandson". That means that Grandpa Walker actually adores Usui.... O_O

So here's my theory; Grandpa Walker was not behind the "Illegitimate grandson should never be seen or even recognized by anyone as it will bring shame to the family name" thingy. This was probably done without his consent. I think Granpa Walker was actually forced to send Usui away because some of the other members of the Duke family didn't like an illegitimate son being one of the heirs to the family. So this means Gerard was one of the people who wanted Usui gone because he is the rightful heir to the the family. But now that he is sick, the family is desperate and Gerard being the heir and all, not wanting his family legacy to cease, wants a proper bloodline to take over him. Plus, Grandpa was reading Patricia's (Usui mama) diary just means that he loved his daughter very much and misses her constantly. Gerard not wanting Usui to meet Grandpa means that he will most probably consent to him cutting ties with the family right? Why else would he want to keep Usui away from Grandpa. I also think he needs time to convince Grandpa to not allow Usui to cut family ties before Usui actually does meet and talk to Grandpa. 

The situation was lot more complicated that I thought it would be. KWMS has always been a light manga so I didn't really expect the plot to be this thick. So hats-off to Fujiwara-sensei for being such a fantastic story-teller.

I'm looking forward to the next chapter!! Till then, feel free to flood my email with your own theories :)

Hey :D

Here's Dengeki Daisy 60! No idea what's happening but the end bit is so damn cute! Hahahaha Teru got tricked by a drunkard!! XD And looks a bit serious with Akira tracking down Teru like that. Hope she's gonna be okay. The mighty Daisy to rescue! I hope he remembers to put on a shirt before he goes out (even though it would be as smexy as hell seeing a topless Kurosaki running around town in the freezing cold XDXDXD) Well, enjoy the raws ;)

'Ellooooo!(Talking like a Brit because Usui is in England XD)

The plot is moving!! It's FINALLY MOVING!!
So I haven't had time to go through the chapter in detail but from what I can see that Gerard is being pushed quite hard my Grandpa Walker. It seems that Grandpa Walker is also falling ill, thus the need of a much "suited" heir to take over the family business. I would have to say that serious Gerard is rather sexy XDXDXD And Gerard's father looks rather....out of it? He must really be a weird one. I wonder if that was why Grandpa Walker is so serious towards Gerard in the first place. Because his son-in-law is just simply not fit to take over? I now really can't wait to go deeper into this Walker arc! I'm glad I stuck to it XD

Hey.

I've updated the translation for chapter 57 raws on the previous post. Or you can just go here :

Hey! *ducks from flying tomatoes*

Okay, okay I'm sorry. I did not update last month on several reasons:

1) Work was busy. Big event and me running around like a mad-woman
2) I get home, I'm dead tired.
3) Weekends: I either get dragged somewhere, which resulted me being tired, or some family member throws something that we all must attend
5) By the time I got my copy of LaLa, the Chinese raws were already out and when I was about to scan it, the scanlations were already out. Big waste of time and energy there.
4) Yeah well, I was just plain lazy *ducks more flying tomatoes*

I am very sorry. So enough of me whining, the other reason why I did not post up May's chapter of  Dengeki Daisy was because, Motomi sensei will be taking a break this month. So I though if I did post up the raws for that chapter, it would be agonizing for everyone to wait a whole month without a chapter to fangirl/guy over. So I decided to post it this month so that the gap for the latest chapter wouldn't be that long. Okey :D Please say you agree with me *puss in boots eyes*

On the RL side, I got into a training program in which will take a whole year. 3 weeks of classroom training anf 11 months of On Job Training. The allowance is quite high and it's organized by a big company so I'm actually looking forward to it. so plenty of luck for me!! No worries, I will be back in time for the next chapter of KWMS and DD

Hey guys :)

Here's KWMS's side story that was published in LaLa Dx which I don't subscribe. If you guys can read Chinese, you will surely have fun with it. The story looks nice with the focus on the 3 idiots for a change. Looks like Shiroyan and Kurotatsu's admirer; the Junior high kid (I forgot his name) came looking for Yukimura, hoping that he could start a rabu rabu story with him XD. But seriously, portraying Misaki like that?? Usui would have beaten him up into pulp if he knew XD I was kinda hoping Usui would show up to see how he saw him like. So Yukimura is still a girl in everyone's eyes. I pity him.... :p And poor Ikkun too. Is he really that forgettable?

More Fanfics

0 Chocolates
Hello :D

The last time I update about my fanfic was "Switched Up!" and that was early last year :O Believe or not, it's been almost a year since I've started writing fanfics. So here I'm gonna update on the not-so-latest-but-it's-new since-the-last-update fics. So read on and give me a review, they make feel all bubbly and give me motivation to finish up the ones that are still in progress.

  • The last chapter of Trust Is All I Need; Trust Is What We Have
  • A short one for Shintani Hinata. Shintani fans are gonna hate me :p ; Why?
  • Alternate Universe for Usui and Misaki; I'm Falling
  • Cutesy, Lovey-Dovey for the pair; Purikura!
  • Future-fic in which is on hiatus because the bunny gave up on me. A new trap is in process of assembly XD ; The Will
  • Another future-fic with no actual plot. But is besides cute! After this ones finished, there will be a sequel XD; Days With Misaki and Takumi
  • Future-fic that was supposed to be in Days, but was too kinky :p ; Cooking Session
  • Future-fic that was screaming to be written. An angry Takumi is delicious XD; Hard To Say I'm Sorry
  • Annnd, a short angsty future-fic which I hope won't happen to them. It'll be too sad T~T; Small Bump  
So far, that's a collection of 13 stories. I hope I have improved with the amount that I have been writing and reading. Honestly, I'm kinda dried up of good stories right now and I do have a bunch of them unfinished scattered in my laptop. I hate just looking at them because it bums me out that I can't write and be satisfied with them. Oh well, I should just stick my head in another book and actually finish it then maybe the inspiration will come to me. So till next time, bai bai :)

Hello! :D

Despite the fact my head is killing me, I still have put this up no matter what!! 

To be honest, Iam actually rather disappointed in this chapter. I was expecting more drama; or maybe that Ayuzawa papa coming had something to do with Walkers butttt it doesn't look like it :/ I dunno though, I might be wrong. So the reason Ayuzawa papa left was not gambling. IT WAS A FREAKING MISUNDERSTANDING!!! Minako should have explained it to her daughters better. *sigh while shaking head* 

See?? Even Misa-chan's pissed off.
Her pissed is just bad-ass that it's cool  >:)


Well, there is however one point in this chapter that is rather important, I think. I might just be the only on tho. I think the purpose of this chapter is to show the importance of family and being selfless to show to Usui. He has been living in a rather cold world, so warmth of people caring about you is something that Usui had never experience. I guess this chapter is to teach Usui that? Well, we shall have to wait for the actual scanlations for it. Usui is also rather sweet in trying to cheer Misaki up and show her that no matter how much the other person hurt you, you should still try to forgive them :) Oh, also: I knew Misaki got her demon-ness from her mother XD


Dengeki Daisy tomorrow! ;)

Hello!!

Sorry this was really late. I havebeen trying to upload the slideshow from Sunday but there seems to a problem with skyalbum. Is not that there are no other site to upload but I would prefer if the raws stay private. Meaning that they can only be viewed and not downloaded. So this was my last resort because skyalbum is still not working for me somehow.

An update on chapter 56 summary: I still haven't gotten the summary from Vala. Don't be mad at her, she's has a life to live. So I will get the summary when I will okie? Chapter 57 is under the cut :)

EDIT: Sorry! I didn't figure out slideroll well  enough. I forgot to change the file name of the slide show. Problem fixed :)

Yay!! The raws are early this months! Thank you to all who prayed together with me XD a virtual cookies for all of you!

Even Misa-chan's happy! :D

This chapter is a rather good chapter I would have to say. It's not that much progress with Usui arc but it somehow made the situation a lot murkier than it already was. If you have been following me on twitter, I mentioned that there is a new character introduced and he resembles Hinata.  Take a guess. It was mentioned in the manga before bye Minako-san (Misaki's mother). I knew the twist was possible but I really didn't expect Fujiwara sensei to use it. It is, of course rather cliché but I am curious as to what role he will take in this story ;) I'll leave the rest to the pictures to tell the story ;) I am also rather happy that there is a little progress with Suzuna and Hinata ^__^.

ON TO THE RAWS THAT WILL LEAVE YOU  GAPING!!


I'll update FTAK and Dengeki Daisy tomorrow ;D

Quick Update #1

1 Chocolates
I've scanned chapter 56 of Dengeki Daisy and sent it over to our translator. Hoping I could update before I leave for Beijing this weekend. I am not gonna bother to scan KWMS and FTAK since both are already out. Last Game 6 and AnS 32 are in the process of scanlations so I'm not doing that either. Sorry for not being able to give raws as early as I usually do because it pretty much depends on how fast the shipment from Japan would arrive. Let's all hope that this month's issue is earlier than last month's. Also, the lateness is also dues to me starting the next phase of my life;working. I'm trying my best to squeeze in as much manga time in my schedule. So please bare with me! :D

Toodles!!

Hello!

I am extremely sorry for the late update. I have started working and I am just flat out tired by the time I get home to update. Firstly, I would like all of you to welcome Vala, out translator for Degenki Daisy *round of applause*. She had sent me the translation since last week but I was only able to summarize it in this last week. I don't want to be giving line by line translations because people will get ideas. So I summarized this chapter based on Vala's translation. This is my first time summarizing so I apologize if the descriptions are not accurate. Be nice to me! Yoroshiku.

I have decided to subscribe to Betsucomi because we are lacking the raws for Dengeki Daisy. I dunno why it's so unpopular when the storyline is really good. We used to have a raw provider in the Mangafox forums but it seems that some people are rather illiterate I think. When they say that scanlating their raw and translation is forbidden, they mean it. But that wasn't really the reason why I subscribed to it (well partially) I as many other are impatient with the lack of raws. So I have decided to subscribe to it with the help of my friend. Were halfing the cost of the mag, so when I say DO NOT ASK FOR MY RAWS TO USE FOR SCANLATIONS. I mean it. I like sharing good stuff. So considered yourself warned.

That Creative Drive #1

3 Chocolates
#1 How to Funky-fy your boring new trash bin.

I went to Ikea with my parents last night to get some necessities for my brother's wedding reception that will be held early next month."You need a trash bin" says my mother. So why not? In Ikea tradition, they like to block colour their products, so there was only the white one available.

Y U SO boring Ikea product?

Step 1) Use your creative drive and draw out patterns that you like on the bin with a pencil. If you can work directly with colours, go on ahead. Though tracing is recommended.

Random sketches of my favourite flower and butterflies

Step 2) Using the colouring tools that you have to colour in the design that you have traced out with pencil.

Bright colours will make your boring bin even more funky-er!
My colouring gear consist of Copic markers and Kurecolor markers. Well, I'm a planning student and I once used these for colouring a landscape plan. But they are now my trusty art pens for my random creative drive.

My trusty art pens.

Step 3) Line out your completed colour patterns with a a black marker to shape the designs better.



Tada! Your trash bin is now funky-fied!

Okay this might be completely random on my part. But who cares!! XD

Hello!!

Yes it's late now but they raws are early (for a change) this month. I haven't have time to look through the whole chapter properly yet but the rough version is instead of spending time with Misaki, Usui gets dragged to a party hosted by Igarashi to celebrate his own birthday. From what it seems to me, Usui is officially being introduced to the rest of the Miyabigaoka students. So Misaki sneaks in as waiter with the help of VP Maki. It seems that the party is the first phase of the plan between Igarashi and Gerard Walker. Fufufuf I'm really interested in Gerard's character now. But fret not, Misaki does get to spend some quality time with Usui and I find her present very cute (even though a lot of other pitched in) and thoughtful. Now Usui feels that he's finally a part of something (happy tears for Usui Takumi) T^T. Ah~This couple is cute to bits and I just feel like hugging Misaki right now XDXDXD. Wait for the proper summary/scanlations for details. Before that, Enjoy!!!


Yes, the cover is definitely eye candy. Thank you Fujiwara-sensei!! Now wasn't the one month absence totally worth it? XD


EDIT: Our friend thescowler has gone out of her way to translate this chapter for us! So off to her blog!! XD http://archaiceye.blogspot.com/2012/01/kwms-ch-67-english-translation.html
