Their tagline should be "Are YOU pedo enough?"

Sorry, I just had to.

Actually I'm sure a lot of people would love to work on Shinigami no Ballad since it seems like a title were a talented translator could do a lot of good.

Don't forget the YURIlicious Kashimashi (wsnt there talk of some Yaoi magazine starting business in the US soon? where the hell is the Yuri!) Quite francly anyone who spoke the language could probably do Kodomo no Jikan, the text here is far less relevant (reads like an amateur porn script, ugh) than the slutty lolis. Allthough I'd lol hard if they made the text innocent while keeping the rest the same.

I'd love to work on Shinigami no Ballad, but I'm probably not talented enough Crying or Very sad Maybe for adaptation purposes, yes, but TL, no. *debates importing the novels out of irrational impatience for the 7Seas version*

The magazine you're talking about is an OEL BL manga anthology. If you want more yuri, do what the people running this mag are doing and draw it yourself.

Wish I could (but my drawing talent is quite limited lol.) Are you saying the people running the magazine are also the artists?

I was just refering to the fact that there is a lot of Yuri/shoujo-ai material in Japan and it would be nice it somebody translated it and released monthly or seasonal anthologies.
