Well, I finished proofing the last chapter (9) of Fuyu today, so as soon as it's all cleaned and typeset, we'll release it. Look forward to it in the next few weeks (or less)!

Ch. 7 is interesting. First time in the manga anyone's taken an action on their own initiative.
Actually, when I think about it, manga heroes actually coming up with a positive idea and acting on it is rarer than you'd expect. Especially if you don't count "Man up and confess to the girl you love", which doesn't really take a lot of problem-solving skilz. Mostly they just kind of get swept up by events and do their best to cope.

Oh, for fuck's sake. She is not even young anymore, yet they make so much noise over a silly kiss.

@Purple Library Guy No, I haven't noticed that very much. In this specific case, though, it might just be the press reacting so strongly because Gon is her trainer, and that seems a bit unusual. As for in general, I'll take your word for it.

This author really knows how to pull at the ol' heart strings, eh?

Hm. By the way, has anyone else ever wondered about the attitude in Japan towards their idols getting into relationships? (Not that the North American attitude is particularly healthy either) In a lot of manga there seems to be this thing where except maybe if you handle it just perfectly, the mere event of having a normal healthy romance is terrible for your career, like you're supposed to be married to the fans or something--and it's true for both girl stars and boy stars, although maybe less so for the boys. Seems weird to me.

I'm really liking this so far. I like Hara Hidenori's stuff, like a few here (hi Comadrin!), but this one is a bit different. I mean, Regatta and Hoshi no Furu Machi are about people just getting going; they're in the, y'know, "Springtime of Youth" and they're working out the problems of being young and uncertain of your path. But this one's about older people, disillusioned people trying to hold onto a direction and some mojo in a cynical world. So far it has a really nice touch.
Thanks Village Idiot; you folks have brought me a lot of good stuff and this looks like another really good one.
