Okay, the hiatus is over.  Well let's try that again...

If you want a convenient scapegoat for the delays feel free to point some hate at a certain telecommunications company who only deigned to actually fix a totalled junction box (serving a not inconsiderable number of households) after a couple of weeks. They don't seem to get customer service.

Small Update

Take a look over on the right of the page, okay, down a bit... there you are... notice something new?

That's right! Another box of text! With links!

Specifically this is where we're going to put the volume batch torrents.

For the moment though you newbies can start right from the beginning.
We've got the original 54 chapters that were released by Jinmen Juushin in a batch torrent.

So, umm, enjoy.

Okay,  maybe I've been a little lax in making these release posts all exciting, so just imagine explosions and cheerleaders and candy and a thumping soundtrack and whatever else you think is awesome as you read the news that not one, not two, but three high quality chapters; the end of volume 10 have been released! 

Feeling enthused?

Is it 'good' shocking news, 'bad' shocking news, or utterly irrelevant 'news'? Who knows.

In other news; only one episode of the greatest ever TV show to go before it's all finished.
All the cool kids know what I'm talking about.

Few little bits and pieces.

森田 まさのり - MORITA Masanori. The mangaka responsible for this.

ISBNs (International Standard Book Numbers) for the various (Japanese) volumes will be put on the corresponding release posts.

What we do is simply swap the Japanese text for the English and make sure the image scans are nice and tidy.

The Japanese release chooses to fully capitalise the title. 'ROOKIES'. However in English 'Rookies' is a little easier on the eyes.

We will stop when a licenced English language version becomes available or if we are asked to do so by the Japanese publishers.

(also if hcross sees this, please contact us.)

And so we begin

01/30/03 Jinmen Juushin release the first chapter of Morita Masanori's ROOKIES
...
07/26/06 Jinmen Juushin release chapter 54, their last, of Morita Masanori's ROOKIES.

02/12/08 The Legendary Fifth Rookies Group forms to complete the work that the now sadly defunct Jinmen Juushin started.
