Forest Bear
Dedicated to Suiton I present to you our best one-shot yet: Forest Bear. Shikawa Yuuki’s the artist, this was out of Weekly Shounen Champion’s recent run of gag manga.
This took us a week to do and the holdup as usual was QC. Unfortunately because of the massive amount of work required to get this one-shot out, My Balls was delayed.

So here’s finally a new chapter for you scrubs.
edit: ffffffffff this is the joke, zind was too busy to check, of course:
Translator’s Note: The Masturbation Day joke is a difficult one to translate, if not impossible. The reason Kohta comes up with it is rooted in how the Japanese make words out of numbers. In this case, July 21st. In numbers that would be 0721, and if we took the first syllable (using 0 as “o”) of each number’s Japanese word, we would end up with onani- (that dash being the kanji for 1, but used as a vowel lengthener here). Onani- is the Japanese word for Masturbation. There you have it. The joke explained.

So I lied in the comments because it didn’t occur to me that we would be conflicted on 2 translations (there’s 2 ways to read these it sucks) and that Orbital wouldn’t translate the index. There will be a volume of this one too with a proper index and possibly revisions if we later decide to change these 2.

So like tonight I was going to release 4 different things only to realize none of them are done. Two of them still need edits (one of these two may come tomorrow) one of them is missing color pages and the other one is done but it’s a chapter after 2 beyond what we’ve released (feel free to speculate what was what in the comments.)
edit: let me clarify the conditions here since some of you aren’t very good at this game. 3 series, 4 chapters, no series had an impact on another series.

To complete our WE ARE NOT DEAD, OK? posting streak, here’s some Yoshitomi yuri.
I’m just going to apologize to anyone with a CRT now, we all have LCDs so we will never see the noise you see using a CRT. This is for all current and future releases.

This is a re-release of volume 1 with fixes of some errors we made in early chapters, fresh cleans on the first half, and consistant filenames. Also includes a short bonus chapter which doesn’t actually have anything to do with Jackals.
edit: I will keep the individual chapters up for 2 weeks and then they’re going away.
