Shinohayu 121: Mass

Someone asked me if I could translate the Saki Biyori omake chapters. That's the extra chapters published in the tankobons. They are not too long and it seemed like a fun little project so I decided to do it. I expect it will be ready some time in November. Anyway, something else to look forward to.

In the mean time, Shinohayu...

Saki 279: Under the Stars & Toki 79: Good Opportunity

Saki. The original title for this chapter (星行 seikou) is one of those poetic words with a very specific meaning that are never used in normal conversation. Ritz often uses these kind of words for chapter titles. In this case, it means something like "to leave the house very early in the morning when it's still dark and the stars shine overhead". The only thing that matters here is the word "star" since, in case you didn't know, Oohoshi means "big star" and Ritz usually uses star-related words for anything Awai-related.

Also, Ritz pointed out a scoring mistake which was corrected in the translation.

 
Toki. Mekimeki did their best coloring Toki's eye in page 4 (it's an important eye...). On the other hand, you'll notice that in Saki's color pages, the coloring is too plain (Ritz admitted to that and promised to fix it for the volume release).
