    So yes, as I said before, I work as a translator for Tokyopop. My first project has hit the presses and is in major bookstores USA wide (I'm not sure about Canada and Europe)
    Lament of the Lamb Is the project. Unfortunately, the transfer of some of the images was a bit... unfortunate? They didn't turn out as vibrant and beautiful as the volumes I translated. Additionally, A rewriter who seems to have since been reprimanded, has mangled my translation a bit. but otherwise, I recommend this interesting drama/horror about teenagers with medical Vampirism. It's been fun for me to translate.

    I need a good new manga series to read, and horror is always fun.

    Like also havm't bought any manga's in a while but since college end's next week i'm going to go change that. This manga sounds really good and if it ever hit's the selves over here then i'm going to but it for sure. Or if i do go to New York then i'll see about getting it there.

    It's a shame, I actually picked this series to do among 2 options because I'd heard a little about the OAV that's out there... unfortunately the OAV doesn't do it any justice, 4 episodes to cover an entire 7 volume series.
    The art is so wonderously contemplative, especially at the chapter breaks. I hope those of you who pick it up enjoy it.
