So now that Given is done, what is your overall feeling or takeaway from the series? You've been covering it since the beginning, it must be bittersweet for you. It's just hitting me now that the series is over since it was so important to me and it makes me a little sad that it's over.

To be honest, there's so much, but mainly that life goes on no matter what.

Given meant a lot me, but stuff happened behind the scenes which really ruined it for me. If it weren't for my fantastic teammates, I would've given up on it. I couldn't wait for it to end, but when we were scanlating the final chapter, that's when it really hit me. It certainly WAS a bittersweet feeling. I felt empty and I was really sad about it ending because it had inspired me in so many ways, and I also made a few good friends because of it.

Kizu natsuki sensei announced a side story for Given btw. It will be serialised in Cheri+ and the first chapter is set for release end of Jan 2024. She also mentioned she doesn't know how many chapters there will be in the end.

And I'm sorry I took forever to reply!

At long last, we’ve reached the final chapter of Given.

It wasn’t always smooth sailing, but thanks to our awesome team members—as well as many lovely souls who helped us along the way—we pulled through.

And thank YOU for all your support!

“apologist.” “critical.” y’all are doing too much. when my favorite characters do evil reprehensible shit I simply don’t fucking care cause it’s not real

the thing about being in a fandom for a long time is you inevitably develop very intense opinions about things you know objectively are absolutely meaningless but nonetheless make you want to gnaw through drywall like a feral cat and there's just nothing you can do about that

Sequel to 'Wolf in the house' announced by Park Ji yeon on Twitter.

The story will focus on Ein and Diesel's lives in Europe, apparently.

I heard Nexus Scanlations are at least inactive, their website doesn't work anymore, and their last release was in May 2020. Seems noone is working on Ameiro Paradox anymore ;_; Am happy for the official release though!

Aw that's too sad :( Amepara is so good...Has it been licensed in English?

Hi! I saw you posted ameiro paradox vol.6 raws, do you know any team/person that translate it? I plan to buy the official translation of vol.6 when it will be released, but it will probably be released in more than one year or so, so for the moment... ;u;

Hey~ I'm sorry for replying so late. I'd only posted a single panel from a chapter because I thought it was really cute.

I believe NEXUS scans had been scanlating amepara for the longest time. I'm not sure if they're still working on it though.

Hello! I'm not sure if anyone answered this question before but here goes: Why is everyone in the Given crew being called by their first name except Ritsuka? Is this something he's not comfortable with?

Hello~ Nothing of the sort has been mentioned anywhere in the manga I can only assume Haruki and Akihiko stick to it partly because they like calling him "Ue-sama" (My lord) My best guess is that the three of them (Mafuyu included) have been calling him by his surname for so long it's probably really awkward for them to switch to his first name.

Uenoyama too probably won't know how to react should he ever be called Ritsuka. 😄

the reason i don’t like groupchats and discords and stuff it’s because of how easily you can say something and for it to be ignored by everyone or to get the vibe that you’re not vibing with people. and i always think like !!!!!!! i hate this
