Yami no Matsuei Vol 13 translated into Polish

I only realised today, while browsing amazon that all 13 volumes of Yami no Matsuei have been translated into Polish.  Should this be of interest to anyone, especially since the English, German and Spanish versions don't seem to have translated volumes 12 and 13, I've managed to find some Polish stores selling vol 13 (although not volume 12, which seems to be out of stock everywhere I've looked, except as part of a 12-book set).

Volume 13 can be found here, amongst other places:
https://aros.pl/ksiazka/yami-no-matsuei-ostatni-synowie-ciemnosci-tom-13

No idea if they ship outside of Poland and I don't have time to look over the next week or so, but it's probably worth noting that if you want a quick and rough translation of certain sections, Polish is easier to type into Google Translate than Japanese (some accents and language-specific characters, but largely latin alphabet, and it typically Google-translates more smoothly into English than Japanese does.

Don't suppose there's been any news as to whether or not Matsushita-sensei is still working on Yami no Matsuei, has there?  I've been swamped with stressful real life stuff over the last year or so, so there may well be something that I've missed.

collecting a bunch of stuff

hello everyone it's me again orz

i've been desperately trying to find the drama cds, along with their translations, but my searches have only turned up dead links. i thought i had them stashed somewhere, but i guess that was a hard drive ago :,)

while i'm here i figured i'd ask if anybody had a game from cursedmoons (akane/inma)? it was called wan wan 1ko, and it was kinda like a little diner dash game lol. i have yami no romance and love impact (dating sims) made by them, and i can share if anybody's interested in those

finally if there's any doujin scans anybody's got kicking around i'd appreciate that as well. i've got a number of them stashed but i kinda feel like the little mermaid like "i want mooooore" lol

i guess in general i'm also seeking any old/rare content that's not accessible anywhere else any more :Ia

i admit eventually i'd like to create an archive thing on my domain since this fandom is so old and so much content has kinda been lost to the sands of time and gosh darn it it deserves to be preserved

edit for clarification: official media is what i would like to archive, doujins are for me to look at because i hardly have seen any for this series lol. even if i look on marketplaces, i can only make purchases on english sites and these things don't turn up very often for me to get physical copies

any and all help is appreciated, thanks guys!

oh and since it was 2 months ago i figured if i'm here anyway i'll plug the discord chat again too lol

discord chat!

hi y'all! i'm a mod at the ynm discord chat, and i figured some folks from here may want to join! we're planning on doing a reread soon, and as many folks as possible joining in would be fun :)

here's a link to join the chat! you'll need a discord account, i'm not sure if you're allowed to lurk without one?

the link should be set to never expire, but if for whatever reason there's an issue hit me up. i check lj maybe twice a year tho so it may be best to try to reach me... on discord :,)

Current status of series?

So there was a post on fandomsecrets today about how this series never ended, and I wondered if anyone knew anything? Are there more chapters than those that were last posted here? If so, are the raws, or dare I say scanlations, available anywhere?

Also, I could upload the scanlations that were posted here before if anyone needs them because I know there's nothing quite as frustrating as dead links, but does anyone know if sorceres_delial would mind? Did they ever take a stand on other people reposting their work here?

Is anyone leaving LJ?

As you've all probably noticed, LJ has changed the user agreement.

There's a more detailed post about the new agreement on Tumblr:

Probably the most important bit:
"Short version, as I see it: nothing obscene by Russian legal standards (in Putin’s Russia, LGBTA discussions could fall within that, much less actual smut), and even if you’re squeaky clean and hetero-vanilla, any and everything you say is subject to their (legal) judgement.  So yeah, for’ex, prohibiting “the dissemination of information for the purpose of discrediting a citizen or some categories of citizens on the basis of sex, age, race or ethnicity, language, religion, trade, place of residence and work and also in connection with their political convictions.” could be seen as protecting someone from abuse or libel, and that’s great - but it also means that if the Russian government decides they don’t like your political activism, they have the right to use that post as “abuse” that “shall entail criminal, administrative or another liability in accordance with the legislation of the Russian Federation.”  And then “the hosting provider or the person mentioned in Item 2 of Part 9 of the present article shall provide the information allowing to identify the blogger.”

Shorter version as I understand it: Livejournal no longer pretends to adhere to the concept of Freedom of Speech and/or privacy as (still) practiced in the USA.  If any practicing (or perfect) legal beagles want to elaborate on how I’m right/where I’m wrong, I welcome the instruction." -suricattus


If you want to leave LJ and move all your entries, etc. very easiely, follow the instructions at: https://www.dreamwidth.org/support/faqbrowse?faqid=86

P.S. I know this isn't related to YnM, but this is one of the only remainig active communities I follow on LJ, and I'll be making the move to dreamwidth (I'm there as jokessho)
