Here’s episode 2 of the Sakigake!! Otokojuku anime!

AVI MU | MKV MU | Torrents Forthcoming…

Otokojuku stops for no one, and neither does Hokuto no Gun! Enjoy another great episode of this classic, but watch it soon because you’ll soon have a lot more on your plate…

A reminder that we need DVD RAW providers and typesetters ASAP!

Another Important Announcement: We at Hokuto no Gun are NOT taking requests to subtitle anime until further notice! All our projects have been initiated by what HnG staff want to do, and we’ve got five anime projects and a bunch of manga projects either in progress or planned, and we all have lives and can’t dedicate our time to a million projects. So if you want someone to sub Fuma no Kotaro or Gold Lightan or whatever crap we don’t care about, take it to some other group. Not here. This is FINAL.

And now, the moment you’ve all been waiting for… Here’s the very first episode (version 2) of the Sakigake!! Otokojuku anime!

AVI MU | MKV MU | Torrents Forthcoming…

We’re finally here! After a year’s worth of recruitment hell, drama with other websites, and failed collaborations, we’ve finally gotten underway in our Otokojuku project! What’s more, now that we’re on the ball, you can expect subsequent releases of this project very shortly!

Special thanks to Bleeds_Tricolore for the DVD raws, SpiritofHokuto20xx for his excellent timing and quality checking, Ttally for the karaoke, and especially Seven Stars for his translation checks and for volunteering to help out with typesetting!

As with our other anime projects, this will be released in an Xvid AVI and an x264 MKV. Both will be hardsubbed, but pick whatever codec you prefer. Torrent coming soon.

Important: Even though we’ve got enough people to make these releases go pretty smoothly for a while, our raw provider only gave us up to episode 12 of the DVDs and we can’t contact him anymore. So unless you want us to stop at episode 12, or you want bad quality encodes from episode 13 on, we need DVD RAW providers! If you can rip VOB files and have access to the Sakigake!! Otokojuku DVDs,, please contact us ASAP!

Also, I’d like to officially announce that because of the speed at which we will be putting out these releases, our Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo project is on hold until we finish Otokojuku. That said, it doesn’t look like it’ll be long before this is finished and we start up Bo-bobo again, so in anticipation of this we need skilled typesetters and DVD RAW providers as soon as possible!

Here’s the very first episode of the Genshi Shonen Ryu anime!

AVI & MKV are currently getting re-encoded due to technical difficulties.

You may be wondering about our lack of releases recently. See, a couple months ago, Hokuto no Gun got bombed back to the stone age. We’re recovering now, but we also managed to bring this old anime back with us from the stone age, and we hope you enjoy it.

Special thanks to Seven Stars for kicking off the project and translating it, GouNoKen for providing the raws and translating from episode 4 on, SpiritofHokuto20xx for timing, and LoverofHokuto for managing everything that got dropped in his lap.

This series will be released in both Xvid AVI and x264 MKV. If you want better quality, go with the MKV, but with such an old series as this, you’d have to be a quality whore to care. There’s hardly any difference.

This will be our last priority project. We are in no rush to finish this one, and our other projects will come before this. So please no whining for the next episode: it’ll be ready when we feel like getting it ready.

Torrents coming soon! And in case you missed it, scroll down for more SnK!

Tune in next time on Hokuto no Gun for something you’ve all been waiting nearly a year for! Same Hokuto time, same Hokuto channel!

Here’s chapter 130 (SnK manga): MediaFire

Fight, fight, fight!!
This is a good one! Did I mention there’s a fight?
Enjoy!

PS: We STILL desperately need a skilled typesetter, so please step up and be manly if you have that skill.

Here’s chapter 16 (HnK Rei manga): MediaFire

Chapter 16 and a centerfold to boot!
Enjoy!

Here’s chapter 03 (HnK Yuria manga): MediaFire

More Yuria coming through!

Enjoy!

Here’s chapter 129 (SnK manga): MediaFire

It’s here!
Yep, here’s another chapter of SnK thanks to our guest editor Haku. What’s more, my real workload should ease up a bit this month so more goodies should follow. Lastly, it looks like Toki Den’s gonna take a little bit longer because the encode needs some further changes.
Enjoy!

PS: If you want us to be a bit faster on our projects, you guys need to step up. We desperately need good typesetters and encoders, so please step up and be manly if you have those skills.

Yes guys, you heard me correctly.

We are indeed suffering a drought period due that darn Icelandic volcanic ash that is causing so much chaos and disruption. Ok ok, truth is, we’re in a drought period because I’ve been insanely busy at work, some of the staff have got exams, but more importantly, because both of our manga editors are out of commission due to severe computer problems. That said, we do have some chapters ready for editing, but we’re just going have to be patient and wait for our editors to get their computers problems sorted out.

Now, don’t get too gloomy because there is some light at the end of this drought tunnel.

1. We should hopefully get a final encode of Toki Den relatively soon.
2. I’m going to send the Yuria Den script to SC for a final check in a couple of days.

Okay, so it’s midnight my time and thus the joke’s officially over.

This was all an April Fool’s joke, and it wasn’t a very good one. It was one I just thought up in the spur of the moment with full realization that it was very highly unlikely and not at all trustworthy. And yet a number of you fell for it. I guess this shows we have a bunch of gullible fans!

To set the record straight, there will NOT be Akashachi Gaiden, Juuza Gaiden is NOT cancelled, Araki Hirohiko is NOT drawing anything HnK-related (though that would be awesome), we are NOT picking up this project, Wimmo is NOT returning, and we are NOT dropping anything.

Also, I hate to be a fanboy, but to those of you in the comments: Shachi was the Hokuto Ryuken guy. Akashachi was the pirate. Make sure you get those straight.

For those of you that missed the joke, here’s the original post:

We at Hokuto no Gun have just learned from a very reliable source that due to lame artwork, Juuza Gaiden will be prematurely cancelled, and Comic Bunch will replace it with a much more awesome Akashachi Gaiden. Most of the details about this new project are top-secret, including its release date, so not even we know much about it, but according to the most recent rumors, this Gaiden will be drawn by none other than Araki Hirohiko.

The HnG Staff are very excited about this new release and will begin translating it as soon as it comes out. We will be dropping all of our other projects just so we can focus on this piece of pirate awesomeness. Rumors have it that even Wimmo will return just so he can translate this manga. We are excited to bring you this incredible Gaiden to you, and we hope you will enjoy it!

Here’s chapter 15 (HnK Rei manga): MediaFire

More boobs, followed by a special guest appearance of George BUSH at the end!

Enjoy!
