Posting 2 paragraphs to get rid of that ugly red link for the moment. This chapter is double the length of Wristcut @.@

Just wanted to check (since the translations have gotten me hooked to GOTH), did you mean 14th July or 14th June?

Lol, my first post is pointing out that, what a bad way to start.

Lol, my avatar is simply to act as a reminder to an event that happened a few years back for myself. However if people are too disturbed by it I guess I can always change it. (I really should change my damn nick though, makes me feel like a freaking 8 year old noob)

Nah, I just thought it was ironic seeing a Wristcut avatar :P

If we'd were people who were disturbed by it, we won't be doing GOTH now, would we? 8)

Well, some of us actually enjoy being disturbed. :D I think of it kind of like spiciness; a little (or a lot) here and there goes a long way.

Nitewolfz:
Yeah, the name seems a little newbish, but you don't, so it works out. I suppose the name has sentimental value? I find it interesting that your wristcut av actually has the cut going the correct way too...

Glad you're enjoying GOTH. As for me personally, I'll try to get at least a few pages of DOG up in a week. And HolyCow has confirmed to me that there aren't any cross-spoilers between DOG and TWINS, so everyone can read those at will as well. It's later on that everything starts to come together, actually in the story that HolyCow has graciously allowed me to translate. (or so I understand ... haven't read that far)

Well, there IS some spoiler related stuff in TWINS, but it doesn't concern the storyline. It's a very small spoiler that you'll most probably not notice if I don't point out, and all it concerns is a certain moe aspect of Yoru.

Unless you read things very much into detail, I doubt you'll notice the spoiler at all :P

P/S: The_naming_game, have you finished reading DOG yet? It's advised that you do not translate if you haven't finished it yet, since there's a 'trap' at the end... I think I've mentioned it before...

(I thought I posted this, but it's just sitting here in the tab.)
With this new information, I think I will have to revise my estimate to 2 weeks for DOG... I was earmarking that time so I could read Wristcut...

Lol, vanished for some time to try to get my college stuff fixed. Sigh, a little disheartened by it but this isn't the place to be talking about it. Now, if I actually said "That's my actual wrist" I wonder what the response to it will be, but I'm not a histronic, and so I wouldn't actually take a photo of my own wrist cut lol. Sigh, I almost wish I picked up Jap in secondary school so I could read. Anyway, back to the point, so for the bulk of the chapters they'll be completely "spoiler-free" from each other (I'm assuming with the exception of the last chapter)? Lol, right now I'm considering waiting for all of it to be translated before I start reading, but I wonder if I can survive the anticipation (or perhaps if I will go bald).

From what I hear the stories have the same characters, but the stories themselves aren't interconnected. You'd have to get confirmation from HolyCow about that though.
