can you please PM me the names of the characters of cluster.

i can be the editor for cluster.

... I don't know the names of the characters in Cluster any more than you do, and I'm still not quite convinced about picking up this project either, since I don't really care for Akiyama Tamayo. Moreover...

Its one thing to say one is going to be the editor for Cluster, and quite another thing to do it. At modern BWYS quality. This is a seven volume commitment, and from what Maris has told me, it is chock-full of double pagers and heavy re-draw jobs. It doesn't just need someone who knows a bit of Photoshop, it needs someone who's experienced in scanlating in Photoshop. Someone who passes the editing test with flying colours http://flobberworm.com/downloads/BWYS-editing_test08.zip. Someone who can do the first two tasks seen here http://bwys.org/index.php?page=sitestuff/editordemo perfectly.

If you are such an editor, or you have one up your sleeve, I might consider talking with CLAMP no Lumiere about a joint for this... but I can't promise anything. My staff are not so much disinterested in Cluster as... apathetic.

Shade is only one volume... that might be more realistic to talk about...............

That's easier said than done, Shade has only about 20 pages that are NOT double pagers. I'm not sure there's an experienced editor alive willing to do that, and I'm not cruel enough to 'force' any staff into it even if I could.

{JE} Scanlations decided to close? Sounds like good news to me.

I know Tachibana Higuchi fans are going to be sad that there's no way to read M to N no Shouzou, and its unlikely that it'll be licensed if it hasn't been this far. BWYS has no plans to pick it up though, and Tachibana Higuchi's art style makes scanlating very difficult.

But I'll keep it in mind. When Tsubasa and xxxHOLiC end, which is going to be sometime in the first half of this year, we'll have a lot of staff open.

um... if it's possible... could you guys pick up Natsume Yuujinchou?  It's a good manga, it's been dropped though 'cause of licensing.

If BWYS doesn't mind, could you guys consider Nosatsu Junkie...  I think the other groups (somehow) dropped it... they haven't released anything for ages... thanx a lot.

Sorry, but we won't consider Nosatsu Junkie. Reasons being firstly that I'm not interested, and secondly that its licensed by Tokyopop.


I know we may seem like a group that doesn't care for licenses, but we would prefer not doing any more licensed projects. Gakuen Alice was a situational exception and Tsubasa/HOLiC is... is CLAMP.

In light of this I've also made a new Project Suggestion thread, http://bwys.org/forums/index.php?topic=372.msg2355 where you are welcome to drop names.
