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!

Disclaimer 2 the Revenge: Parents should once again keep their children away from the naughty bits!

Enjoy!

Here’s chapter 02 (HnK Yuria manga): MediaFire

Another Chapter of Yuria for all!
Um, not much else to say apart from, go grab it!
Enjoy!

Here’s chapter 128 (SnK manga): MediaFire

Long Wait…
Yes I know it’s been a while, but I’m sure you’ll enjoy the Bird of Death revealing his true feathers…or something like that.
In other news, you’ll be happy to hear that Toki Den should be out any day now, and you’ll also be getting another chapter of Yuria Gaiden this week too.
Enjoy!
