I haven't found much more info about who is doing it yet, but I found these hilarious.

Link, please? I’ve searched for “Nihon Kiin” there but none of the pages had comics …

Thank you, “liked” the page, although with some of those comics I’d really love to be able to read Japanese … nevertheless a few of them I found funny even if I can't

Those are awesome!

Is there some way to subscribe to just the comics?

I'll attempt a quick translation (please forgive me if there are errors):

First one at the top:

1 - Ataa! Atatatatatata!
2 - You are...
3 - already dead!
Note: This is the famous line from anime Hokuto no ken (Fist of the North Star) that is being parodied.
4 - Bone of the North Star, I'll. eat. it!
- Seki! It's seki! It's not dead... and you can't eat it

Second one has no text so I'll skip to the latest one:

1 - Caption: Detective drama (tv show)
TV: When it comes to cases, there is no such thing as big or small
Dog: Right, right!
2 - Caption: Medical drama
TV: When it comes to lives, there is no so such thing as big or small (edit: meaning important or unimportant in this context)
Dog: yes! yes!
3 - When it comes to yose, there is no such thing as...
4 - big or small. *pachi*
Text on top (thinking voice?): I think there is, this yose is worth about 15 points, it's the biggest on board.
Brown dog: Oh really, it looks like you think there is...

There's also news about a new manga featuring a 13 year old girl aiming to become a pro go player.

Please be as good as Hikaru and please get subbed

Here are the first few pages of the new manga.

It's called "hoshizora no karasu" (literally "crow of the starry sky") by MORIE Satoshi. It's being published in Hana to Yume a shoujo manga magazine (targeted audience are girls aged 10 to 18).

Let's hope it's a success and it will get more young girls interested in playing go!

Thanks for the information!

Anybody able to give a better translation that what Google Translation made of this?

“Flowers and dreams” … “a dream and this other flower”, heh, I think I like this, nevermind what a correct translation would be

Perhaps this is what I should write first in a Go server game, instead of “this is Tom in Germany good game!”

Flowers and dreams!

Here it is. Google's translation was a bit funny (it even got the date wrong!)


The rest is about another series.

"Flowers and Dreams" is just the meaning of the name of the magazine (hana to yume) that I have kept untranslated.

Heh, that makes more sense than the Google translation, but I sort of liked the idea of a manga about a girl playing Go to forget about her bad haircut....

Agree with Inkwolf. :p

I hope the writing is good, since I like the art.

Ok, this one is bad... but still makes me laugh.
