"Growing" (IY)
Aug. 30th, 2009 07:19 pmThe circle name for this doujinshi appears to be "Raspberry & Blueberry", nicknamed "RasBlue"-- apparently a secondary alias for the (now-retired) IY fan artist Sakuban.
Usual warnings: I have no real idea what I'm doing except for juggling a lot of reference books/websites; there is a reasonable chance that any part of my results may be completely wrong. Unless you are Urd-chan, do not turn these into English-language scanslations or I will be cross. Grrr.
( Vague format key )
Page numbers taken from filenames in Urd-chan's scan set.
There really is a sharp division in the speech level used by IY himself and, well, almost everyone else. He uses a lot of slangy contractions and is generally rude.
( textual carnage )
*splat* Have limped and spackled my way to the end in typically pathetic form-- the result mostly makes sense, but in a lot of places I have no idea whether it has any real relation to the original text :b
Possible continuity conflict-- in this doujinshi, the main plot is marked as 2011, with Kagome age 21; the epilogue photos are dated from 2005-2010. However, Takahashi canonically places the start of the IY manga in 1997 when Kagome is ~15 years old. (The 1997 date is captioned into the manga; it's not just contextual from IY beginning publication in 1996.)( Read more... )
