And I stand by my notion the fuck who drew that evil doujinshi should have what happened to Eduarde Delacroix, the Mouse-Prisoner in The Green Mile happen to him.

Type "Green Mile Botched Execution" on youtube to see what I mean.

Dry-sponge fried-extra-crispy all the way for Yui-chan's murderer, Baby!!

Okay, maybe Ohno Yoko was a bad idea. How about Ringo Starr meeting HTT? He's the cool guy they based Wakko Warner's accent in Animaniacs from, apparently.

I think Ritsu would be in awe meeting Zak Starkey. He may be Ringo's son, but he's also the Who's drummer.

That's not what the phrase "death of the author" means.

New K-On Manga news is awesome~!

Frizo · 2011-03-12, 00:31

Woah, first off. To the guy who mentioned the 'author is dead' thing scared the living hell outta me. With the tsanami today I thought he did die (did he?)

Anyways, so now there are 2 manga? 1 for Azusa and the other high schoolers, and one for Yui and the rest of the university students?

Midonin · 2011-03-12, 00:46

No, Kakifly's okay. My post was referring to an old essay and to the guy two posts above mine, which was in fact referring to a completely different author (who is also not dead). In short, everyone's alive.

Most likely it'll still be one manga. It's just that the publication will be divided into two magazines, one for the college chapters, and the other for the high school chapters. Both of them will be combined into 1 tankoubon volume.

BaKaBaKaOtaKu · 2011-03-12, 10:45

i can't wait to see the girls in college!! XDD no more school uniforms though..

If they wanna make more money they will make it two separate mangas, more for people to buy.
But yeah eventually I think they will combine the two and then make even more money because people will want to buy "the complete set" for lack of a better word even if they do own the other two individually.

I think you're misinterpreting what's being said here. It will be one manga from the start, they'll only be "separated" (high school / college) in the magazines in which the series is serialized. The actual K-On! manga volumes will still only be one series.

Thats the last time I read something while half asleep.

K-On! Vol. 2 is now in stock at amazon.com!

EDIT 3/23 - Got my copy! Woo hoo!

Nerroth · 2011-03-30, 10:18

Got mine, too.

Spoiler for vol 2:

Sometimes a translator should simply admit the source story is located IN JAPAN ABOUT JAPANESE and the reader should just deal with having to learn the odd wording or two.

Ithekro · 2011-03-30, 14:05

The voice directors may fix that in the anime, since the animation doesn't always follow the manga's choices of translation (see Azumanga Diaoh's interpritations of "Osaka"....manga...Brooklyn accent. Anime...Southern.)

Yeah, it does have its odd wording or two, but I guess that's to be expected.

And reading those chapters made me realize how much stuff KyoAni left out or changed in the first season of the anime.

That's nothing. Wait until you get to volume 4, they skipped like half the book... (although I suppose that's understandable since a lot of it probably was made after production had begun on K-On!!)

D-Gold · 2011-04-03, 20:05

Azu-meow..... i don't think i will be getting use to that name anytime soon. I bought vol 2 anyway though on Friday.

Lord of Fire · 2011-04-04, 03:11

Makes me wonder how they'll be handling that in the anime version (both subbed and dubbed).

It's technically the correct translation, but it sounds so odd. I don't think I'll get used to hearing (or in this case, reading) that for quite some time.
