Could someone translate Sora no Mani Mani?

[shadowfoxEX]

I know I'm probably in no position to make a request. I am no more than a good fan of Red Hawk Scan's works, and I have nothing to offer you other than my thanks and a few spare dollars left from my lunch money. But I really would like for someone to translate this fantastic series. Sora no Manimani was once translated by DRAT, who have been inactive for several months, and have not worked on this for over a year and a half now and this manga series ended last November (I believe) with its tenth volume. It is humorous and very heart warming to read, and as a man who cannot read any japanese, I cannot continue reading the raws that exist online for the next 3 volumes.

If you could so please translate the series for me, I would thank you while on my knees for doing so.

Do you have the 19 chapters that were released downloaded? The DRAT site won't work for me, Batoto is down at the moment, and I'm not going to MF/MH/MR to read it there. I looked it up on MU and I'm interested in it. I don't think RH would pick it up, but I might be able to get another group to.

i just started the anime to this series and I too would like to see it translated because of it being such a good series.

This kind of post make me feel really guilty.

Hi, I'm Tamashii, and I am (or was) the leader for the SoraMani project in DRAT.
Unfortunately and due to poor leadership on my part, I wasn't able to secure a translator (TL), a spell checker (SP) and an associate editor (ED) to properly handle some changes that were occurring inside of DRAT.
The previous TL was unable to help with the project, and because I'm really a beginner when it comes to Japanese, I wasn't able to replace her helping hand by myself.
Thus, all I could do was to be an editor for the project.

Chapters 21 to 27 remain in my work folder, (almost) cleaned up, leveled and ready to be typeset.
I really like this little series, it's one of my own guilty pleasures, to watch and rewatch the anime series, and to read and reread our own releases.

If anyone would like to work on it, to help us with TL and SP, I would be glad to proceed and help actively with the project, under any group that could hold it, as DRAT is, as far as I think, disbanded (as our site is off and we have no place to stay, not even IRC).

Also, thanks shadowfoxEX, Derek and jcfdude. Derek, if you find such a group, let me know ASAP. I'd be willing to collaborate actively.

<EDIT #1> I'm going to search for our old release catalog and post the links to the released chapters in this topic and in MU (if only can I remember the password...). </EDIT>

Sorry for the double post, but the Edit reply button wasn't working for me somehow.

This Mediafire folder contains all the releases of SoraMani we did during our run:

Tell me if something is wrong there.

Do you know how many volumes are available. I believe it's still ongoing with at least 8 volumes now, right?

[jagman1x3]

It's completed with 10 volumes. Derek's new group, Renzokusei scans has picked it up.

[GreenMoriyama]

Oh.....I need to get those 10 volumes then! I love the series and I've been wondering.....

[Derek]

It took some time from my previous post, but yeah, I got it picked up and continued.
