Shaggy Horror's first release! The first of many to come, hopefully.
This is the second chapter from the first kanzenban volume of Orochi, by Kazuo Umezu. (A kanzenban is like an ultimate volume - really big.) This completes the volume. The first 90 pages or so were done by a group called [Kurokishakai]. Much thanks goes to the group, who also did the first chapter of Orochi. You can find that on their blog.
The chapters of Orochi are separate tales, connected only by the existence of a strange girl named Orochi. You absolutely do not need to read the first story to understand the second. This chapter is titled "Bones" and is about a woman with a bad childhood, her husband, and a spell gone wrong.
After I finished the chapter, I saw that it was over 180MB, so I saved the files as JPEGs to reduce their size. The result was two versions of the chapter, with one of slightly less quality. Both are easy to read though. And it is 215-pages long, so 180MB isn't too crazy a number. Anyways, here are the download links.

Big thanks goes to molokidan for translating this and again, [Kurokishakai] for starting this. I'm going to start working on the first chapter of volume 2 now, and it will hopefully be out before Valentine's Day. Tell all your friends about me!
NOTE: A page is missing from this chapter. It doesn't further the story, so don't fret if you've already read the chapter - you didn't miss anything big. It just sound effects (UUUUUUUUUU). Still, here's the missing page so everyone can get it:
grats on your first release, i'm sure it will be a big success! (and I'm sure 4chan will adore you for it, until anonymous says otherwise :P)
ReplyDeleteFantastic! Don't feel like a whore for advertising this, horror manga fans should be happy to see that more Umezu is being translated.
ReplyDeletethanks for picking this up!!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for picking this up! Huzzah! :D
ReplyDeletech2 is missing pg 183
ReplyDeletecan you check?
I read "Drifting Classroom" a while ago and it blew my mind. Unfortunately other books by Umezu (Reptilia, Scary Book, Cat-Eyed Boy) were a bit disappointing. Now, I have just read bones and it blew my mind again. How creepy, how relentless! But it also features great characters and the story is psychologically traceable. I can't wait to read the other chapters. Many thanks!
ReplyDeletehello
