Sakuranbo Syndrome
 

Drama Romance Seinen

http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=6517

"Progressive Rejuvenation Syndrome." This is an extremely rare disease causing the inflicted person to gradually become younger. The main character of this story, Munenori Agawa, is the only person that could save Rena Amami from this odd disease. Agawa's saliva is the only thing that can halt the disease from making Rena younger, so they must kiss everyday in order for her to survive. This causes an immense amount of conflict and drama between Agawa and his new girlfriend, Sayako Asou. This triangle relationship story tests the capabilities and limitations of human love.

excellent manga, im about halfway through the "3rd" volume and the premise is interesting. the characters are well done and the overall concept (how far you would go for love) is unique.

highly recommend this to anyone who loves romance manga's

hmm.. Mysterious Girl friend vibe detected

Droll...check
Opposite Gender....check
Odd disease...check
School life...check

not in my list for this time:p

Good stuff. Pity that whichever group was translating has decided to stop/take a break. Eh, what can you do but learn Japanese?

Should definitely reconsider it, it's a "hidden" gem among alot of bad romance manga's out there. The plot and character development is unique and interesting...

Not sure what Mysterious Girl friend vibe is either...lol

Hmm...I'm getting closer to the end of volume 3, but isn't it completed?

This is indeed a hidden gem.

And the whole volume 4 is out.

The last seven volumes are still untranslated, and it's been a year since the last scan was released. If you're interested, Hobo-1 is working on Kono S o, Mi yo! and they've finished Ore x Yome vol.1, which are both by the same author.

Hmm, I believe there are only 4 "volumes" out, but they consist of a few "mini" volumes in each?

I only say that because each volume is approximately 220 pages from where I'm reading it...

Well, I have read the releases, so I can tell you with certainty, that it's incomplete.

You're right, there is still so much story that needs to be uncovered.

I'm baffled that translators aren't fighting each other to get the rest of this series done! I'm actually sad that I started this, simply because I was under the impression that the entire series was completed (translating-wise). It seems that there may not even be anyone willing to do the job, either...

Really does blow my mind...people will translate H mangas, but not a true masterpiece in the making like this one...

edit:

Just found the translator:

http://www.jcafe24.net/index.php?PHP...opic=15437.100

His name is Gottheim=

"A little update on Sakuranbo Syndrome.
The first two chapters are already translated, which leaves another six plus the omake. Keep an eye out for Shingeki no Kyojin, the other big manga I'm working on. Once it's done, Sakuranbo Syndrome should be quick to follow."

Damn, I couldn't help but have a look at the untranslated volume's raws. Now I can't wait to see them translated.

I must say this one's definitely on my reference list for seinen.

wow this has 11 volumes FUUU and only 4 translated so far tt

i guess imma indulge myself in looking at meaningless pictures with a wall of japanese text ican't comprehend just to see the developments.
I hope the ending is depicted in pictures and not in writing, cuz i wouldn't get that :S

This series is WAY too good to not have a translator. It's already been out in raw form (the entirety) for a really long time, and nobody has picked it up...

I mean it has a very high score of 8.65/10 @ http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=6517

Does anyone know where I can reach someone?

A lot of adult series have been left incomplete and need to be translated... like Love Junkies. Or Kono S Wo Miyo.

Hobo-1 released v.5 of Kono only 2 weeks go, so at least that looks like it'll be finished.

Will read it when someone will actually translate it again.
From 11 volumes this ain't fun.

Latest Release(s)
v.4 c.29-38 by Gantz_Waitingroom (300d ago)
v.3 c.23 by Q-K Scans (349d ago)
v.3 c.19-28 by Gantz_Waitingroom (357d ago)

ive been checking his site on a weekly basis, and...i believe 4 months ago he said he only had 2 chapters to finish in volume 5.

my guess, he doesnt have any interest in the series nemore.. :(

where are fan translators at!!!

Maybe someone talk to japanzai or other group.
They seem very active with all of their seien projects.

Not Love Junkies.

Yeah I know, I still hope they will move up their pace with Nozoki Ana.
Still they seem to translate a lot of Sun Ken rock and Btoom, with releases on daily basis.
One of the more active group which I follow atm.
And yup it would be nice to have a wholy translated love junkies, as I kinda miss some light romance comedy atm.

Im going to register an account on their forum and make a plea for this series-

Help me out guys :D the more "voices" there are, the more likely they will pick it up!
