Getter Robo Anthology Chapter 1

First release of Anthology!

Getter Robo Anthology: The Final Ten Seconds of Space
Megaupload

This chapter is by Eiichi Shimizu and Tomohiro Shimoguchi, creators of the Linebarrels of Iron manga.

Releases for Anthology will be sporadic due to C-K's busy schedule, but since no chapters are related to each other, it shouldn't be that big of a deal.

Still working on finishing up Mazinger Z volume 3, and I've gotten the translation for Getter Robo volume 2 chapter 1.

Enjoy.

The Calm Before the (Spin) Storm

Sorry, no releases this time around. I've been working my ass off, but nothing is ready for release quite yet.

Currently working on Mazinger Z volume 3 up to 50 pages shy of being complete. So once I catch up to about 175 on editing, and then get the translation for and edit the last 50 pages, we'll have a release. It's almost there.

This week marks the first week of Getter Robo volume 2 translations. Damage is currently working on the double length 1st chapter, and once we have that out, we'll start doing week by week chapter releases of the original Getter Robo.

So, things have been building up for a while on all fronts, and it'll soon be ready to burst into tangible releases. Bare with us for just a little bit longer.


On another note, do you all remember the "Terror of the Two Demons" chapter from the UFO Robo Grendizer manga? It seems Go Nagai did not write nor draw that chapter, but good ol' Ken Ishikawa did. Interesting. One has to wonder what his other contributions were in various Dynamic Pro manga.

Translation: Ken Ishikawa's 「Grendizer vs Double Mazinger」 from (Terebi Magazine August 1976 Special Issue)

It seems the title was changed for the compilation we translated, but that page proves that it's the same story. Who would've thought.
