I declare the forum officially open!
*LoH smashes champagne bottle*
You can register at the following address: http://hokutonogun.invisionzone.com
I’ve wanted HnG to have its own forum for some time now, but I never made it a priority because HoM was doing such a great job keeping the Hokuto community together. However, once HoM went down, that sense of security was lost and everything changed. Things became more urgent and I began to ask the community to help contribute so the team could do bigger and greater things. Now, thanks to the generous donations of dxInt, Mr. Gerbik (AKA CJ), SpiritofHokuto20XX, vlado, and a very good friend of mine, we got the money together to buy a forum. But the story doesn’t just end there. The star of the show is once again our good friend dxInt. Not only did he give a sizable donation, but he also volunteered to create and moderate the forum in his spare time! He really came through on his promise, so I dedicate this forum to him for his tireless service to the community. Thanks for everything dxInt, I’m in your debt!!
That being said, we still need to maintain this forum, so I hope you guys will help us reach a minimum $10 a month maintenance fee. We’d also like to buy our own domain name, but that can come later. Now enjoy the forum guys, and keep the English speaking Hokuto community strong!

Here’s chapter 106 (SnK manga): MediaFire
Shooooooooooowwwwwww!
Yep, you heard me right ;)
Btw, this is Kroi Kenshin’s very first translating debut, so please let him know if you enjoyed it.
As for me, I’m finally starting to catch up on the tons of stuff I’ve got waiting for me on my hardrive (check the progress report if you don’t believe me)!
Now on to some very sad news. Our very own SpiritofHokuto informed me that his grandmother passed away recently, so the team and I would like to send him our deepest condolences. On top of it all, he has been really gracious in continuing his work on Kenshiro Den during these difficult times, so I really thank him from the bottom of my heart for that. May your grandmother’s spirit rest in peace my friend.

Here’s chapter 03 (HnK Toki manga): MediaFire
All hail the genius!
Btw, you haven’t seen much manga releases lately because I’m flat out working on Kenshiro Den. The Kenshiro Den progress so far is that it’s been translated amazingly by Wimmo, it’s passed a preliminary check by me, and I’ve fixed the typesetting. All that’s needed now is a translation check, which SystematicChaos is doing as we speak, and then a final check from SpiritofHokuto and I. We’re almost there, so I’m predicting we’ll have a release for you guys sometime next week.
In the meantime, I’ll try and check a chapter of SnK as soon as I can because Dukester and Kroi Kenshin have 3 chapters waiting for me. While we’re on the subject, I also need to give episode 21 of SnK a final check before it goes for encoding, oh, and I also need to catch up to Wimmo’s multiple HnK Gaiden translations. Lastly, dxInt and 4 generous donators have really come through to help us a establish a new permanent forum for HnG, so expect that soon. In the meantime, I hope everyone will at least help us maintain the monthly $10 minimum needed to maintain the server costs.
PS – For all you Italian fans, don’t forget to check out our scan providers www.hokutonoken.it for their Italian scanlation/s!

Hi everyone!
I just wanted to let you guys know, especially HoM members, that I’ve put up a primitive HnG/HoM Chat Page on the right for people to use until Robin and I set up some type of temporary forum for everyone. I decided to create this page to tide people over right now because my real work, Wimmo’s insane amount of translations, and my own preparations for an upcoming Easter break isn’t giving me much time to look into the forum issue at the moment. So go ahead, feel free to chat, send news, links etc etc.
EDIT: After posting the above, I received a few kind offers from different people volunteering to host a temporary HoM forum on their respective sites. I really appreciate what everyone is trying to do, but I personally don’t feel comfortable supporting or promoting another forum using the HoM name especially when we’re not entirely sure if HoM is really dead. If HoM is dead, I think it is only proper to ask SuperJ and the former HoM moderators to moderate any new forum that has the HoM slogan on it before we proceed. Therefore, I set up a temporary chat in order to facilitate the community, and have HoM mods like King of Ken tell us what they plan to do next. These things take time, so please be patient till we work something out.
In other news, I am also looking into creating a forum for HnG, which I would be happy to join with HoM if they so wished. I’m still looking into buying a site, so I would really appreciate it if people could email me regarding a good place to host the site, or give me some ideas as to where the HnG team can moderate their own temporary forum until we receive the funding needed for a permanent solution.

Here’s chapter 10 (HnK Jagi manga): MediaFire
The show must go on, so here’s another chapter of Jagi Gaiden! The story is starting to move pretty fast now, and we’re also getting to see more familiar faces.
Enjoy!
PS – Seeing as how HoM seems to be down for good, Robin is trying to get create a temporary HoM forum at our Brazilian joint group HnK Fansubs. I’m also thinking of doing the same for HnG because we haven’t received nearly enough donations needed to host our own site with its own forum. Please think about helping the group towards this goal by offering a modest donation. Thanks.

It is with great sadness that I announce that Izmoo, an active member of the HnK French forums such as Hokuto Legacy and Son of Hokuto (and even a causal member of HoM), died two days ago. I must admit it came as a shock to me because I was in communication with him fairly recently, so the whole experience seems somewhat surreal to say the least. What makes matters worst is that he was young and the cause of death seems like something which could have been avoided. He was a very active scanlator amongst the French HnK community and he even had his own blog Mega-Izmoo in which he shared the HnK series, the new HnK movies, the HnK manga, and other anime/manga in the French language. Lastly, the HnK community is like another type of family to me, and his association with fansubs/scanlations brings things much closer to home. My condolences to his family, and may he rest in peace.

EDIT: Iceman57 has posted the following address of the funeral for those of you who wish to send your condolences directly to Ismael Carrier’s (aka Izmoo) family:

Here’s Episode 19 of the SnK anime:
Torrent | MegaUpload

All aboard!!!
We’re one step closer to completing the series which has already been translated by our man SystematicChaos! Much thanks to SystematicChaos, SpiritofHokuto, DaiKenOh, and our new Translation Checker Wimmo who have really delivered in every way imaginable!
Now, enjoy the show folks!
PS – Please stop sending me emails about the HoM site. I really don’t know what happened, and I’m as clueless as the rest of you on what is going to happen.
