2004 April Fool's joke...

[Mirai]

I'm really sorry if this is just me being totally ignorant, but I was just wondering whether someone can point me to the direction of where I might be able to get the 'real' version of the manga. ^^;;

Also, who is the mangaka?

I tried looking around the site, yahoo! groups, and also searched through the message board history but found nothing. Help anyone? ;_;

Do you have a screenshot of the layout?

I don't remember how it looked like... [img]redface.gif[/img]

Oh crap! It was actually the 2003 April Fool's joke. [img]redface.gif[/img]

I'm such a dork. ^^;; I'll post the second page of the manga where it's got the story's title on it. It's the one where little cute pictures like Hello Kitty and Hamtaro popped up in the sex scene, lol.

It's titled AprilFools in the files section of the Yahoo Groups. That's where I downloaded it from.

Here's page two...

Hm... the title says "(something) wa docchi da!"

I think it's "asu wa docchi da!" or "Ashita wa docchi da!".

... er.. something like "What way is it tomorrow" or "The day tomorrow, what will happen".

Google tells me there's some kind of song with the same title, but they should be two separate things.

"明日はどっちだ!" also seems to be some kind of blogg-like comminity in Japan, which would fit in to the story, seeing as it is about meeting someone online.

..But I could be wrong.
This looks like a sidestory or a oneshot, though.

椎名　軽穂 is the name of the only author I've found who has written a manga with this title, but it's without the exclamation mark (!), so it'd probably not it.

Hope this did help at least a bit...


Good luck in searching further.

thanks! that really did help... though I'm going to guess that there's really no proper, full scanlation done for this ^^; It's a shame, I think.

Thanks alot, really. [img]smile.gif[/img] I'm going to try to get my hands on a copy of the manga.

I think I remember Katze saying something about Crisis having the scans for that manga, so they couldn't work on it right then. ^^;
I'd like to see the real version as well =D


Pers. question maybe: What part of Canada are you from? ^___^

Crisis having the scans? Does that mean they might have translated it too...? I really hope so >< Probably have to dig around on irc or something, but the problem is that it might be named something else. [img]frown.gif[/img] My last resort would be to purchase the manga. If I do, I'll scan it to share it with you guys ^^

I'm currently in Nova Scotia! (not actually Canadian though) I gather that you're from Quebec? [img]smile.gif[/img]
