Grrr...

OneManga removed Umi No Misaki from the site.

In protest... I might reread the whole thing over again on the weekend.
You realize they'll likely put it back since to date there isn't a damned thing that would get the site shut down. That's the case for pretty much anything that didn't get a specific publisher requesting the removal, with certain exceptions.

The OneManga website is doing a review of all the Mature rated series it hosts. Once a series is deemed not to be 'pornographic' :huh:, it will be put back up on the site. We will have to wait and see if UnM will be affected by this. <_<

Meanwhile, the series is also posted at MangaFox and at the scanlator's website, Solaris-SVU. ^_^

Sigh... I never really considered it to be pornographic... Certainly not for young audience though... But I guess I can see it.

OneManga is a site I love to hate, as half the time I have issues with it.

MangaFox I have different issues with it. Avoid it at all costs.

Solaris it is...


Fortunately I am only following about 3 active manga on scanlation sites at the moment... unfortunately, UNM was one of them.

So, wait. I've started reading this, and it says that the Cape Maidens are all the daughters of the other Cape Maidens, and that if one gives birth to a boy, he's the reincarnation of the Dragon God, right? Wouldn't that mean the entire harem here is incest?

EDIT: Just finished everything the series has to date. I think Kisaragi ships Nagi/Harem, given how she gets her friend to show up at just the right time to unite the girls by giving them an outside threat to compete against.

While it may have been stated that the current Cape Maidens are all daughters of former previous Maidens, this does not always have to be the case. Keep in mind, Nagi's mom left the island when she married and had her son, and was not stated to have had any other children. That would mean that someone had to replace Nagi's mom as Maiden when she moved to Tokyo, and it is not likely to be a close relative, as that would have been mentioned - Nagi's dad would have told him about any close relatives he has on the island.

Then again, there is so much unexplained about the Dragon God and the Cape Maidens. For all we know, while the current Maidens may have been selected from previous Maidens' families, they may have had to select girls from other families due to deaths or inability to bear children.

As I've stated before, my one pet peeve about this series that when Nagi was informed that he was the Dragon God, and that the Cape Maidens were to serve him, he should have gone up to Karin's grandma (who is a priestess of that temple) and ask her to tell him *exactly* what she meant by that, and what is to be expected from all of them. Especially after he found out that he was supposed to give at least one of his Maidens his *favor*, with all the connotations that brings to mind. :mellow: Instead, Nagi is coasting along on whatever pieces of info the Maidens, Oba-san, or Rinnie-chan give him. <_<

They are art least extremely lucky Nagi is as he is... he could have been some punk or bastard who would have really been bad for them, in any number of ways...

You mean like the anime adaption of Makoto Ito from the School Days anime?

Let's just say that the manga adaption of that interactive visual novel character was more considerate of the girls and their feelings, making him a more sympathetic character than his more flawed anime adaption counterpart who really got what he deserved in the end.

New scanlation for Ch 66 at MangaFox and Solaris-SVU. (Note: UnM is still offline at OneManga, but MangaFox is online-readable.)

Ch 66 - The First Islander

The girls try to play musical futons with Nagi. :huh: The Ryujin inadvertently reminds the girls of their first lesson as Maidens. <_< And two of the girls realize that the third has a substantial advantage, even if they don't know the full story - if they knew what happened on that cliff the first day, the other two girls would probably panic and/or overreact. ^_^

BTW, the advantage is the 'First Girl Wins' trope, which can be found here, at the tvtropes site. They also have a UnM page up now here, and if you haven't been to that site yet... prepare to be sucked in. :D

This chapter's selection for Fan Service Not Related to the Story is...



And this chapter's selection for Fan Service Actually Related to the Story is...

Ch 66 pg 3, bottom frame. Go and look it up. :p

Enjoy! :lol:

New scanlation for Ch 67 at MangaFox and Solaris-SVU.

Ch 67 - I Want To Do It Now

Three Cape Maidens and one Dragon God sleeping in the same room - recipe for possible disaster? :huh:

Karin discovers that 1) she is also really sensitive to a sleeping Nagi's touch, and 2) Mike has the worst timing ever. ^_^

UnM is been determined to not be pornographic :rolleyes: and is now online again at OneManga, located here. Do you guys think I should continue posting their link to UnM, or are the links to MangaFox and Solaris-SVU sufficient? Thoughts, please.

Enjoy! :lol:

It's not actually back on Onemanga, it's up on their new 1000manga.com site with the other series deemed too mature, the Onemanga listings just transfer you there.

New scanlation for Ch 67.5 at MangaFox and Solaris-SVU.

Ch 67.5 - Bath Time

The Summer Special (also known as the Fanservice Special), this is also titled Blissful Time, which I think is more accurate. ;)

The Three Maidens think about the Ryujin during their various bath times... and not in that way, hentai. :p

The most notable fanservice picture (which is safe for work) is the cover pic.



Next chapter should be coming out in YA 15 on July 23.

Enjoy! :lol:

New scanlation for Ch 68 at MangaFox and Solaris-SVU.

Ch 68 - First Sexual Experience Checkpoint

It's not the title of this chapter that makes it Not Safe For Work, it's the fact that most of it involves Karin and Mike together in the shower/bath, and has them talking about Karin's physical feelings for Nagi. :eek:

Mike is starting to make Karin more nervous, especially with what Mike says about Nagi in the chapter and how she dodges Karin's last question at the end. <_<

Oh, and I think Nagi should start feeling concerned about protecting his virtue if he is going keep sleeping in the same room as Karin. ^_^

Sorry, no good non-NSFW pics to post this chapter. :p Of course, the other pics aren't too shabby otherwise... B)

Enjoy! :lol:

Note: OneManga has decided that due to the current legal climate, it will no longer host scanlations on their site. :( However, this series is still available at MangaFox and Crazy's Manga among others, and at Solaris-SVU. :yay:

Yay for update! LOL at the blatant sexual conversation. What Mike's saying is pretty much the truth, though, so good on her. About the only thing she missed is something along the lines of "It's supposed to be fun, so enjoy yourselves even if it isn't perfect."

New scanlation for Ch 66.5/Special Chapter at MangaFox and Solaris-SVU.

Special Chapter - Waai

We learn when and how Mike and Kisaragi first met - Mike really wasn't good at math in high school, and Kisaragi really doesn't like her given name and the nickname that results from it. ^_^

Enjoy! :lol:

Ch 69 - Targeted Nagi!?

Mike starts a bathing suit arms race with Soyogi and Shizuku, while she is also starting to get a clearer grasp of the situation involving Nagi. <_<

The look on Shizuku's face when she saw Mike and Nagi 'together' when she first woke up was priceless - as well as what she did to 'protect' Nagi. :D

Shizuku's wake up

Ch 70 - Two Sides of A Mirror

Mike makes some uncomfortably accurate observations about the three Maidens, especially Shizuku. The plus side to this chapter is the introduction of Cat-Girl Shizuku. ^_^

This week's cover.



Enjoy! :lol:

Ch 71 - Mec Vs. Cake Roll

Mike continues to reveal more about her true personality to Shizuku; she also keeps yanking the Sea Maiden's chain, resulting in the return of Chibi Neko Shizuku. ^_^

The other problem is that Karin and Soyogi don't realize what the real point of the argument about the Mec (McDonalds?) burgers and the island cake rolls are really about. :rolleyes:

However, Oba-san is keeping track of matters and decides that they need to make sure that Nagi is not feeling homesick. That doesn't sound ominous, does it? <_<

Enjoy! :lol:

This is the second time(I think) that Oba-san has gotten vaguely sinister at the thought of Nagi leaving. There's something they're not telling that boy. Everything will be fine forever as long as you never, ever leave.

Neko-Shizuku is adorable/hilarious, though. Pay attention to me~! It...it sums her up way too well.

I dunno why he'd want to leave when he's got Soyogi, Karin, and Shizuku hungry for him.

It's an amusing, but ultimately unfounded paranoia. Nagi's already outright claimed that his home is Okitsushima, but the old woman wasn't there for that declaration, so it only makes sense that she'd be concerned.

I was initially a bit leery of this arc but it's turned out to be quite entertaining. Mike's been amusing thus far, though I'm not sure if I'd want her to become a permanent fixture or not.

Ch 72 - Pardon the Intrusion

The three Maidens start to bring their guns to bear on Nagi in order to ensure the Dragon God wants to stay on the island. Too bad all three girls came up with the same idea separately.... but with different modes of dress... and try to carry it out one right after the other... while Nagi is taking a shower. As a result, the Maidens may have gotten more than they were expecting. ^_^

I would post the pics, but they are NSFW. B)

Enjoy! :lol:
