Getting Back on Track

As some of you may know, April was a rough month for me. My new job wasn't going so well which made real life miserable, depressing, tiring and demotivating. I have freed myself of that job and I'm now back on the job market. Hopefully, the next job I accept will be much better.  For now, though, I will be getting back on track with Omari's Sister and catching up on our releases.  Needless to say, I've regained my spirit and I'm eager to get going on OS activities and a new job search!

With the remaining days in April, we will be releasing "Magnolia" Chp 21, "Servamp" Chp 2 on Bakeneko's Lair, and a special one-shot.

Also, please support Omari's Sister by purchasing some of my magazine goodies and lightly used manga.  The items are listed here.

"Ojousama no Untenshu" Chapter 2

Hooray!  More of that handsome chauffeur!  Page 21...heh-heh...

Not much to say here other than I thoroughly enjoyed this chapter and chapter 3 looks like it steps things up a notch.

On to the link!

Omari's Sister is Recruiting!

We are making a big push toward our 3rd anniversary in June!  We intend to have a profusion of releases -- primarily the remaining one-shots from Kuro Lala and Shiro Lala.  Due to this, we are in need of some additional help with our regular release and our anniversary releases.  Here's a list of what we need!

  • Proofreaders and QCers -- Proofreading the English for typos, syntax error, and grammar errors and making sure the letterer didn't leave out any text.  You must be fluent in English.  I would prefer volunteers with expertise in grammar, but if you are eager and are willing to put in an hour or two once or twice a week, that works for me.  These are ongoing volunteer positions.  We have enough volunteers for now.  Thanks to those who e-mailed me.
  • Translation QC -- Mid level Japanese knowledge is fine, though advanced level is preferred.  I need folks to check the translations to make sure they are accurate.  This is a temporary need for our anniversary releases, though you are welcomed to stay on after.
  • Redraw Artist/Image Editors -- I need a couple of experienced redraw artists to work on Kuro Lala and Shiro Lala projects.  You are welcome to stay on with the group after our anniversary.
  • Typesetters/Letters -- I need a fearless typesetter or two who loves fonts and sound effects.  This is also a temporary need for our anniversary, though you are welcome to stay on after.
If you are interested in any of these volunteer positions, please contact me, Kuroneko003, via the contact link at the top of the right hand column of this blog.

Haha!  I can't believe we don't need translators.  I'm so grateful to our wonderful translators for the help they provide.  Though, if you are burning to translate for Omari's Sister, we will definitely find something for you to do :).

April 2012 at Omari's Sister

I realize it's been over a week since our last release, but trust me, we're all working hard on various releases.  We just had nothing that could be finished right away after Yukarism.  Next week, though, we should start releasing a bunch of projects. Here what we got on deck for April:
  • One-Shot: "Sekai de Utsukushii Namae" ("The World's Most Beautiful Name") by Yuu Toyota
  • Servamp Chp 2
  • Ojousama no Untenshu Chp 2
  • Fushigi no Maria-kun Chp 5
  • Rex Fabula Chp 5 and 6
There are a few other projects that could get done, but I'm going to be conservative because I lost last week due to real-life stress.

To get the latest information about progress on our releases, please check the release schedule. If you want to know the instant we have a release, then please follow our release announcements via Twitter @OmarissisterRel
