@Sulla: Takano was introduced in Higurashi no Naku Koro ni, Ryûkishi07's first series. It's also in that series that her backstory is detailed.

Reading the comments, does Takano appear in another work? And if she does, which one?

@Kryuzei: Design-wise, kinda. :þ She's the resident "blue-haired hime cut girl".

...is that this world Bern?

Reminds me of Stephen King's Mist story.

 

It does have a King vibe to it, huh…

Really enjoying this so far, keep up the good work with the translations!

do you have enough staff to work on this?

 

I'd need a proofreader, a native English speaker, preferably.

Wow that's pretty unique, a  survival manga about a group of family members trying to survive instead of strangers or classmates, I would like more manga that follows this route. This manga is basically Drifting Net Cafe but with family instead of strangers.

Just to inform you that you can now download the chaps on our website!

Boy, you know things are bad when Takano saves you. Nice to see her aim improved.

 

A bit easier with a shotgun, admittedly. :þ But man, it's still incredible how chill she can be in this situation.

…Well that chapter 4 twist didn't ellicit as much reaction as I expected. =[

Oh, another work from creator of Higurashi. I wonder if it has similar plot.

Please continue the translation!

 

I'd like to but I can't do everything alone. Someone proposed their help, so I'm waiting for news of them.

Please continue the translation!

Thanks for this new chapter. :)

Thanks for scanlating, this is really good so far.

shouldn't this have a supernatural tag or something?

 

It should.

 

By the way, I don't know if I'm gonna do the other 4 chapters in the volume. I might if I get some help for typesetting and such, but otherwise it will be difficult.

Glad to see this translated. I bought the volume but since I don't understand anything, I got bored. Thanks.
Too bad it isn't a mystery but this will work too!
