well... it's been a while, hasn't it. Things happened, which resulted in us not being able to release anything for a long while. But here's Peace Maker chapter 11... it's a jail break! This was released with Deadbeat Scans a while ago, of course I only found out that we actually released it... yesterday. You can go get it from their forum, I'll put up a download link later. Thank them lots for releasing this chapter! They did all the editing and QC work on it. Also thank SakkaOnna lots for translating this chapter!!

Let's see if I can explain what happened with us. I went away for the summer for cadet camp, and was unable to do any group-related things. In September, I started university, which ballooned into this huge overwhelming situation which left me with zero time to do anything, since this is my first time away for so long, with the added responsibility of organizing myself, doing homework, which admittingly, I'm not very good at. I was about ready to close down Domo Scans due to lack of time... but there were some members who still wanted to continue... so now, for at least the second or third time, we're trying to regroup again... gee, we haven't been having the best of luck.

As we attempt to assemble things back together, we'll let you know about what will be happening in the future...

Apologies for a lack of update from us. Lately, some of our staff members have left us due to personal matters. Because of that, I'm not sure if the group can sustain itself much longer.

The boss left us with the option of either closing down or moving on to form another group. Personally, I don't know about this. But if worst comes to worst, we may have to close up and give our some our projects to other groups that are willing to continue them.

We need translators. Really badly.

Why? Because all of ours are really busy, which has been a bit of a problem for the last couple months. So if you have some free time, and you know some Japanese, please help us out with some of our projects!

Japanese to English translators are needed for:
Sakura no Ichiban!!
Kimi ni Yadoru Hoshi
Peace Maker
Allison

So the conclusion of Assassin Story comes with the story of Jing Ke: a glorious two-page spread of assassin awesomeness and an extensive poem (which I think is more like a major paper on Ancient Chinese history... but...).

I want everyone to thank elkin for translating the last "poem" of Assassin Story. It is written in an ancient Chinese style that no one usually reads these days and it takes a lot of hard work to translate all of that. It came out to a grand total of 8 pages in Microsoft word, so it was obvious that she put a lot of hard work and effort into bringing us this. It goes beyond the scope that the actual chapter presents (it says a little more about before and after the actual assassination), and is actually quite interesting to read.

I would also like to thank Gplue and Artist_Sese for their translations of the chapter and all the staff that helped complete this work.

So, while this technically the end of Assassin Story, there are some extra stories that we may translate as well. You will also notice that there is no individual chapter downloads anymore, just one big volume download. There were changes made to the other chapters, so instead of re-uploading all of them individually, we made them one big pack.

Also, the downloads section was removed. If you go to the project information page, the downloads are all available there.

Other project news:

Peace Maker: If you go to the Project Status page in the Project Information board, you can see what's up with that project.

Sakura no Ichiban v03 is being translated and cleaned.

Kimi ni Yadoru Hoshi is being typeset and edited.

Allison is being typeset by FATE.

That's right, we're still living, somehow.

Here's part one of what we've been doing during our... extended period of no releases. Here's the conclusion of "Touko's Whereabouts" as well as the end of Volume 2 of Sakura no Ichiban!! Although you probably figured out what happened to the poor girl at the end of chapter 9... here's how it happened. In all its gruesome detail. Volume 3 is in translation.

Please remember to thank all of the people who helped to release this chapter! Remember, guest posting is allowed, but please, no spam!

EDIT: forgot to mention on the credits that raws were provided by Hanashi.org

Also: we're still recruiting! As usual, we need editing staff and translators, but we've also decided to take in one GOOD proofreader, because Daryth is being crushed by the horrors that are AP biology right now. Apply in the recruitment forum, or email us. make sure to follow the guidelines. If you want more of Sakura no Ichiban, or any other series we do, join us or find someone who can!
