Forum problems. - 04-10-08

As many of you have probably noticed we've been having trouble with our forum. This unfortunately is a server side SQL problem and has nothing to do with our forum software etc. So until our host provider fixes it the forum will be down. I don't know when this will happen though. Moving on, we need a Japanese translator for School Of Water Business, and a Proofer for our series. The Proofer has to be very good in the English language to be able to fix any spelling and grammar errors. And also to be able to reword sentences when needed. If any fans out there would like to help us please email me.

Finally... - 03-23-08

after months we have a new release for you. The next chapter of Noritaka is now out, 59, and it's the start of volume 8. So jump on our IRC channel and download it. As for the long delay, lots of things have happened. For the most part it's been due to real life problems, but I also have some bad news. Our School of Water Business Japanese translator has called it quits now, so we can't give you more unless we find a new Japanese translator who has the time and would love to work on SOWB. Second and a little less bad, the scanner for Yawara is gone, missing, maybe dead? I haven't talked to him in MONTHS. So we have no raws and I don't know if I can even get that translated either. It might end up like No Side in the future and just dropped. IF anyone out there has the Japanese volumes and wants to scan it for us, that'd be great! Finally, the scanner/translator for Noritaka has moved to a new house, and as of right now he can't scan more chapters for us, but this little problem can be worked out if worse comes to worse though this means more Noritaka will be delayed for a bit, sorry yet again.

-GP

Delays... - 11-4-07

happen from time to time, and people should be used to this by now. Real life gets in the way for better or worse and you have to deal with it first. Scanlating is 2nd and done just for fun. Keeping that in mind I have two sets of news for you today, one good and one bad. First up, the bad, so you can deal with it right away. Do to many factors we will be dropping No Side. I could go into the details but I don't feel like it right now. Lets just say that there are no people around who have the means or the drive to try and finish it. Sorry to all the NS fans out there, but this happens. Now, on to the good news. We have the next chapter of Hells Angels out today, volume 2 chapter 14! As always, join or IRC channel to get it while it's hot, or wait till the next release in which case I'll put the one before up for http download. And speaking of http downloads, SOWB c17 is now up, so if you haven't gotten it all this time, now's your chance.

-GP

Another month... - 09-09-07

and another new release for you. This time it's every ones favorite School of Water Business. Volume 2 Chapter 17! Rush over to our IRC channel to get it while it's hot. And for all you http downloaders, Noritaka chapter 58 is up on the site for you to get.

-GP

Well, finally... - 08-19-07

with this new release we've finished another volume of Noritaka! Yes fans, that's right, today we bring you volume 7 chapter 58. Jump into our IRC channel to get it right away, or wait for the http download later. Speaking of http downloads, Hells Angels volume 2 chapter 13 is now up for you to download.

-GP

It's been a... - 08-05-07

long time since we had a new release. Sorry for the long wait, but today we bring you Hells Angels v02 c13. Second, I'd like to ask anyone out there who has free time and is very good at English, to help us out. We need a proofer, it's just one job but very important. If you have the time, and again, are really good with the English language. Then join the forum and contact me.

-GP

Today Tama-chan is... - 06-17-07

the big 03! Errr, yeah, we're 3 years old today, Happy birthday to us, Happy birthday to us! Anyways, the plan was to have 3 new chapters for you all today. But, uhh, that didn't work out, we're one short. That still leaves you all with two new chapters. First up is Noritaka volume 7 chapter 57, this should also be the end of the volume if I remember right. Moving on is Yawara volume 5 chapter 56! As always these are IRC only for now, but we do have Hells Angels chapter 12 up for http download.

-GP

Sorry But It Has To Be Done - 05-28-07

The downloads are open again, I did some calculations, and we didn't go over our bandwidth limit just yet, and there should be enough to get us through the month, considering you guys aren't too download happy.

-Kuwa-Jiji

Tonight, leeches.... - 05-28-07

...we dine in HELL!!! Yes, that's right, we've got a new chapter of Hells Angels for you all. Volume 2 chapter 12 is ready to go, so jump into your IRC channel and come download it. Also, as previously posted, website downloads will be locked until the month is over due to bandwidth limits. Once June starts though, they'll be back up, depending on how things go, this might never happen again.

-GP

Sorry But It Has To Be Done - 05-14-07

Ok, for some reason this month we were hit with a massive influx of new visitors and pummeled with a billion downloads, so all of the bandwidth is gone for the month. So, I am locking all of the downloads right now, so if you want to get our releases you'll have to come join us in the IRC channel. In the whole 2 and 3/4th years I've been running this group, I've never run into this problem, and I don't know if it was just a one time thing, but if it continues to be a problem, I may just end up purchasing some new web space to accommodate the new leechers. Until then, I'll see you in the IRC channel. :>

-Kuwa-Jiji

-GP

Here we go again! - 08-13-06

Ok fans,  we're back again, and this time we have one chapter of Noritaka for you, chapter 53.  As always with new things, they're IRC only, so login to our channel and download away.   Also on this note, up until now when we've had a new release, the release before it which was also IRC only is placed on our website for direct download.  That means that I'd have Hells Angels chapter 11 up here today,  but I'm not going to do it this time around.  Instead it will still be IRC only for another week.

-GP

Could've been more, but... - 08-06-06

...the truth is, I got lazy this week.  But a load of scripts have been proofed thanks to my good friend Riva, so now all we have to do is edit away. Expect more chapters next time, as for today we give you one chapter of Hells Angels, 11, so enjoy it.  Oh, and before I forget, No Side chapter 17 & 18 are now up on the site for you to download.

-GP

Slow & steady - 07-16-06

We're back, better late then never as I like to say.  Many of you have probably noticed, we had a large gap between our last release.  Well, all I can say is that we'll try to get back on our weekly release schedule, but you never know what could get in our way.  As far as today goes, we have two new No Side chapters for you, 17 & 18, we're also into Volume 3 now.   Hope you enjoy them.

-GP

Two years Already? - 06-18-06

That's right, yesterday marks the 2nd year of TamaScans' existence. We've been bringing you lovable manga for two whole years. That's a long time if you look at the life of some manga groups. I remember when I started this group out of boredom, I didn't expect for it to be around this long. It's a lovely thing. :> Anyways, to celebrate our 2 years, we have a big release list for you tonight. So, let's begin. *drumroll* GodHand Teru c11! Yawara c49! No Side c16! Hells Angels c10! And...Noritaka c52! Yes, 5 chapters. Lovely, right? I want to thank all of the staff for sticking with me all these years.... Well, actually just a couple of people are still around that joined me two years ago... But thanks to all the newer staff too! (Basically just Mantess and Iwanin. :P ) I appreciate everyone's help. And if any of you fans want to help, please drop us a line in the forums, or send me or GP an email. We always can use more help. ;P

-Kuwa-Jiji

On Time - 06-04-06

Yes, we are actually on time this week. I know, you guys love it. Ho ho ho. Before I announce what has been released today, I think I will just give you a little hint about something. Something will be happening very soon, to celebrate a very very nice occasion. So, look forward to it. >:D I am. Well, I'm not looking forward to all the work involved in it, but... *cough* Anyways, today we release Hells Angels chapter 9 and Noritaka chapter 51. I know some of you have been waiting a while for the next HA release, so here you go! Love it.

-Kuwa-Jiji

Used To It Yet? - 05-29-06

You should be. Used to use being late, anyways. It happens so often. :P But anyways, here I am again, announcing another release for you lovely ladies. ;D Chapter 15 of the No Side. Been a while since we released a chapter of this, so I hope you guys enjoy it. And trust us, we have more to come soon.

-Kuwa-Jiji

Bleargh - 05-22-06

Yeah yeah. We disappeared again for a couple of more weeks. So sue us. :P We've been busy. Anyways, we've got a buttload of scripts to offload, so we'll be releasing quite a few chapters in the upcoming weeks, so stay tuned for that. :D So, yeah... Today we have SOWB 14! Which means I need to scan some more. :S Er..yeah. Enjoy.

-Kuwa-Jiji

We Return - 04-30-06

Yeah, I know it's been two weeks without a release. We've been busy. :P Well, at least I have anyways. But, nonetheless, we have for you some manga today. Two weeks without a release, two chapters released today. First one up, GodHand Teru, chapter 10. The end of volume 2! Personally, I'm glad to see us finish up another volume. Progress on it has been slow (we've been doing it for over two years now) so this is a good stepping stone. And of course, more Nori! Chapter 50~ Getting pretty exciting I must say. So enjoy.

-Kuwa-Jiji

But I Am Le Tired... - 04-08-06

*yawns* Just got back from a concert not too long ago. Man, am I tired. Anyways, got some exciting things coming up pretty soon. Some new stuff coming down the pipe, some old stuff coming down the pipe, it's all good from here baby. :> So, be ready for it when it comes. As for tonight, we are releasing chapter 49 of Noritaka, everyone's totally favorite boxing manga. >.> <.< I swear. Haha. Just read it. But really, it just got a whole lot of attention. It was #lurk's manga of the week, and just got reviewed by the lovable Karthon. So you should check it out.

-Kuwa-Jiji

Yeah... - 04-02-06

Yeah, that was just an April Fool's Joke. :P Our lovable SOWB shall never be leaving us! :E! So anyways, we're gonna go ahead and release chapter 13 of SOWB! Also, thanks to Fugu for this, a Live Action of SOWB was made, just came out the other day. You can download it here. So subs yet, but it's fun to check out. :D W00tah.

-Kuwa-Jiji

Major Announcement - 04-01-06

Incase some of you haven't heard about it, we've recently signed a deal with Manga Jouhou to pair up with them, and many other scanlation groups, to form a new publishing company intended to bring you manga the way it should be, by us scanslators. Basically, we're going to be publishing our work in book form, and selling it to fans everywhere, but at a much cheaper price than Tokyopop or Viz. $5, ladies and gentleman. Our project, School of Water Business, is part of this deal, and therefore is now licensed. I will be removing all of the links for it, in hopes that you guys will support it when the first volume comes out in June! I'm very excited about it, and hope all of you are too. For more information, please visit the Manga Jouhou website.

-Kuwa-Jiji

Slow week - 03-26-06

Well folks, still no kuwa-jiji, and on top of that, it's really been on very slow and very boring week. Anyways, for today we have Noritaka chapter 48 for you. Also last weeks releases are now up on the website for you http downloaders.

GP

FINALLY! My turn! - 03-19-06

You might have guessed it, but Kuwa-jiji is MIA, something about not paying his internet bill or something.  So I have to step in and once again take charge it seems. Today we have 2 new chapters for you, first No Side Chapter 14, and second, Noritaka Chapter 47.  Also Hells Angels Chapter 8, which we released last weekend, is now up on the website for all you http downloaders who just can't use IRC.

GP

Business - 03-05-06

I've just been too busy as of late. Don't have much time to be doing everything that I used to do. We're still looking for editors/proofers/QCers if anyone wants to help out. it's not too late to join. :P And to celebrate this business, we give you Hells Angels c8. Enjoy~~~

-Kuwa-Jiji

Lateness - 03-05-06

Running a bit behind on our releases this week, so today we're only releasing chapter 46 of Noritaka. The other releases we had planned will just have tow ait until next week. If you're bored, go talk it up in the forums. :P Ho ho ho.

-Kuwa-Jiji

Snatched - 02-26-06

Haha, GP was in the process of updating the website and releasing our new chapters when I snatched it from him and finished it up. :P Anyways, No Side chapter 13 and Yawara chapter 48 are out today, so come snatch them away from us before it's too late! Actually, it won't ever be too late, so you can take your time too. >.> It doesn't matter.

-Kuwa-Jiji

It's a Weekly Thing - 02-19-06

We didn't release anything last week. I'm aware of this. :P We have lives that must get dealt with! A few of us are attending college and whatnot, you understand. ;P And if you don't, STFU! Anyways, to make up for nothing last week, we are releasing two chapters this week! ho ho ho. The last chapter of volume 1 for Hells Angels, chapter 7, and chapter 12 of SOWB. Mmm, yes, good times ahead. But man, Hells Angels chapters are so long! Took me and Mantess forever to finish. I cry a little inside every time I see long chapters. But, it's worth it in the end. :> Enjoy reading.

-Kuwa-Jiji

Late....Just A Little - 02-05-06

Yeah, we're a bit late releasing this one? So what? You wanna fight? >:O Yeah, that's what I thought. Haha. Anywho, tonight we are releasing chapter 11 of SOWB. That's the first chapter of the second volume. 1 volume completed! Woo-hoo! 9 More to go until we're caught up. X.x And don't even get me started on Yawara... Heh. Alright, so, as I've been attending some college classes as of late, I've been running a bit tight on time. So, we're now looking for people who are good at English that can proofread, and also for a good QCer or two. I'm also looking for an editor. I don't really have time to train, so previous experience is required. If any are interested, feel free to stop in our forums and post in the Join our Ranks section, or send me a PM in our forum. It is up to you. That's all for this week. Ta-ta!

-Kuwa-Jiji

Losers! - 01-28-06

Hmm, interesting. I released tonight's release about a week and a half ago in the forums, and none of you downloaded it. I suspect that's because none of you saw it. Ho ho ho. I put it in a special forum that only people who have posted at least once could see. But, since practically all of you haven't even posted, none of you saw it. Ho ho ho. I know, I'm evil, but so are you for not saying anything. :> So hah! Tonight I unveil Hells Angels, chapter 6! Many thanks to Fugu for translating it, even though he's super busy getting situated.

-Kuwa-Jiji

Expenses - 01-22-06

Well, I just purchased some more webspace for you needy leechers, so be happy. All the previous Noritaka chapters that were done by Manga-Daisuki are up for download now, and we might start putting up volume downloads for each of our proects as well. Still in the thinking phases, though. :P Anyways, today's release consists of SOWB chapter 10. And that is it. Because that's all we feel like releasing! Bwahaha. Enjoy.

-Kuwa-Jiji

A Little Late - 01-16-06

As you probably noticed, we didn't have a release last week. yeah, I needed to take a little break. Was working way too much at my job. But anyways, we're back on track, for the most part. Yesterday we released chapter 47 of Yawara, which you guys have already devoured like the mad leechers you are. Also, I've put up the rest of the christmas releases on HTTP, and the releases from 2 weeks ago as well. So be gentle with them. <3

-Kuwa-Jiji
