Help Japan!
As a fan of the Japanese pop culture, I'm pretty sure that you know how important Japan is to us. The events in the past few days are more than enough to prove that. Therefore, you should help the country when you can. Any help will be necessary for them, and there is more than one way to help even though we are not staying in Japan. You can either donate to the Red Cross to help the people who lost their homes, or you can import stuff from Japan as a way to help their economy. As for me, I don't have much money, but I will place orders for some books from Japan as soon as I receive my scholarship. Best wishes!
Otoboku 2 Chapter 3
Before you start opening the rar file, there are 2 pages we would like you to read. These two pages are NOT included in the "raw" that we use for editing, hence only camera shots from the book I bought are available for now. Also, the picture size is smaller in this chapter, and there's nothing we can do about it. Feel free to curse the Chinese group who did it.
Note : The pictures are downsized to fit the screen. Copy the link of a picture and paste it on another tab if you want to see it in full size.
第3話 本当の顔
Chapter 3 : The true face
Panel 1 :
優雨
Yuu.
本当に身体の具合は大丈夫?学校行けそう?
Is your body really all right? Can you go to school?
Panel 2+3 :
こくん
Nod
......うん、昨日たくさん寝たから
......Un, since I slept well yesterday.
良かったわ
I'm glad to hear that.
無理はしないでね
Don't push yourself too hard, okay?
Panel 4 :
......ん
......okay.
Panel 5 :
If you happen to see a tankoubon raw somewhere, please send us the link and we will release a HQ remake. This release is only MQ, so I didn't want to spend a lot of time deleting all specs like Macurai suggested.
For OxM 16 and Ushijima 04, it's going to take a while for them to be out because I'm also translating Baldr Sky into Vietnamese. Please be patient for a while.
(to new recruits) Please standby in the channel for a while. I will have something for you to work on when my problems are solved.

Otoboku 2 Chapter 2 - Commemorative release
To me, this release is special, since it marks 4 years since our debut release under the name SRWFC. I still remember the hard time when I and Ryu formed this group. Many things have happened, and we changed from a fansub group which translates anime from English into Vietnamese into a multi-purpose fan translation group with decent quality, a group of weirdos that is unlike any fansub or scanlation group out there in terms of policy. Well, of course we haven't released much compared to them, but we survived and still enjoy creating fan translations. During 4 years, there were about 30 people who participated in our projects, and most of them are now nowhere to be seen. Only a few remained, including me. In spite of that, we are not going to give up, at least in the next 5 years, as doing scanlation and fansubbing has become a hobby of us. To me, it feels more fun to watch and read a few while doing this than just sit and watch a lot of anime, read a lot of manga and novels, or play many games like many friends of mine do.
Now to the main dish, well, it really took us a lot of effort to get this chapter out because it's a pain in the ass to use Chinese scans as raw. The magazine version has a lot of text that doesn't exist in the tankoubon, and there's no way we can afford to leave a trace of Chinese text on our release, so our editor has to take a lot of time to redraw parts that sometimes look nearly impossible to do. Moreover, the Chinese group seems to have stalled after releasing 5 chapters, while the first volume has 6. Hence, after this, we will only provide English scanlation for chapter 3, 4 and Special. From chapter 5 onward, I will post my translations and camera shots of my books on my blog until we can get more raw. I'll let you know whenever I post them.
One more thing, as I stated in the first page of the release, we ARE really in need of editors and typesetters. At the very least, we must have 1 editor for OxM, since that position is empty right now. If you are confident enough to work on this series, please leave your email address here and I'll contact you later. For now enjoy reading chapter 2 of Otoboku 2.
P/S : Chihaya's deceased elder sister's name is Chitose, if you need to know. Also, OxM 16 is being QCed. We'll try to release it within 2 weeks if nothing bad happens.
