Neptune Anthology Chapter 3: Pantsu Panic

I am working on the chapter right now.  Expect more consistent and quick releases from now on. I'm still looking for anyone to take on a typesetting position for me.

Teaser: It seems Nepgear's pantsu has gone missing? Who could have taken them! Who ever it maybe, Neptune is going to find out!

Neptune V2!

The game is great so far! At least I think it is. Sorry for the lack of release once again! Hopefully the English only "reading" community will get to enjoy this game soon too! I only had one hour to play so far. :'( Ugh, maybe I should have gotten the limited edition? Anyone else order the game?

Neptune V2 Coming out in a Week!


From left to right and top to bottom

Neptune, Plutia Nepgear
Noire, Blanc, Vert
IF, Compa, Peashy

Sorry guys. I'll try to work on the next chapter this weekend. This blog has not yet died. Once again, a day has not yet passed where I have not thought about the next release. I do not like making excusing so I won't!

As an added "saabisu" for the long wait, I will gladly translate any small picture/ 1 column 4koma you guys want. Have you ever seen a really funny/cute Japanese fan made picture but wanted to know what it says? I will gladly solve that problem for you! I would prefer if it was related to the Neptune series but anything is fine really.

Also, I will take any feed backs on how I can improve each release. I tried to make much bigger changes from ch1 to ch2. As I translated Chapter 2, I tried my best to cut translator note spam and make the translations less literal. After doing some "research" on other scans I think I will change how I put the text that appear outside the text boxes. I noticed that some other scans just "fade" the original japanese text with a transparent white and typeset over the original text. I'll also take into consideration any other fonts. I have not been doing much cleaning on the raws because the raws seems pretty clean on its own (the whites look white and the blacks look black). But for some reason, my releases look very dirty to me and my translations feel very "mechanical and machine like". I'll do my best to improve the quality of my future releases!

7 days from now, V2 will be released! A new generation of Neptune shall begin! I reason that this series will probably become  a lot more popular in the west in the near future! Especially with introduction of the rebirth series on the PC.

2 more Neptune Games to be released on PSvita.

Two Neptune Games have been announced to be released the PsVita.


The first game that was announced is Choujigen Neptune vs Sega Hard Girls. To be honest, I've never heard about the "Sega Hard Girls" series but apparently the series revolves around goddesses who are the anthropomorphic renditions of Sega's released consoles. Apparently there were light novels and anime releases for this series in 2013 and 2014 respective. Not much is known about the game other than the fact that it's a crossover game.

超次元大戦 ネプテューヌVSセガハードガールズ



The other game that was announced is the one everyone has been waiting for since the results of the most recent popularity poll. This game is called "Gekijigen Tag Blanc + Neptune vs zombies gundan" or "Violent Dimensional Tag Blanc + Neptune vs Zombie Army Corps". This game possibly has a "multiplayer" mode? So yeah, a Neptune Zombie game? I wonder if this is a homage to the Left4Dead2 Neptune MOD? I don't know how popular that was since I never really played much of that game. Maybe it is a resident Evil parody? Or Possibly a Plants vs Zombies? The title sounds like a parody of Plants vs Zombies. I honestly expected like a multiplayer Mario styled platformer like the New Super Marios bros game (which I haven't played). Not much is known about this game either or than the possibility of multiplayer.
