All hail to the hypno toad

Ah I feel good about this ending. It's a bit bittersweet but, still really pleased about who got to pass judgement ^.^

A nice christmas gift. Thank you very much, to the scanlators who worked on this :)

Ahh, miracle REALLY happens! My eyes see the very end of Luck Stealer! Good job, Blinding Awesomeness!!!!

I almost can't believe I've lived to see the day, I remember there being something like the first 3 or 4 chapters translated back in 2004, and here we are 12 years later getting the last chapter.

It's a Christmas miracle! Seriously though, thank you for finally updating this. It bothered me for so long that there was only one chapter untranslated, it's great to get closure.

I've been following this manga since the one-shot came out in 2006 and working on the scanslations since 2013. I'm happy to have been able to complete it! May the SS-42 Gracias forever sail.

 

Big thanks to Golden Roze Scans for the desperately-need translation.

 

P.S. I had to reread the entire series when working on this last chapter because it's been so long and I wanted to be consistent. o_O

Teh end!

 

Now we can put this to rest and move onto something, anything else.

There's a link to the final bit in Chinese I think. Its not English but you can get the gist of it. I recommend waiting on the translators to finish up and reread it, but I just binged it and wanted some closure. To those of you still translating this, thank you so much! This is a pretty rushed feeling ending but not a horrible manga, and I'd love to read the last chapter rather than just see it. 

Need a cleaner/typesetter/proofer for the final chap. PM me if you can help

There are final chapters online in chinese. We need chinese translator.

Well, I suppose someone just stole the luck from this series. It's third time when translator abandoned manga, what's more, it was left just before the final chapter!

 

I wish I could see only raws to know how "Luck stealer" ends. :<

No more updates?

Our translator went AWOL. So release date is TBA.

I also made the mistake of reading addicted to curry after it and didn't realise it was a hentai genre.

 

I'm pretty sure it's not, in the same way I'm pretty sure the sun rises from the East and sets in the West.

No more updates?

heh. i first read this back when Onemanga was still alive.

I did use onemanga as my primary source since I dislike the qantity of ads on mangahere etc. but then it went down. I only read bleach on OM iirc but luck stealer was literally one of the first few I read on manga reader 6 or 7 years ago or so. I also made the mistake of reading addicted to curry after it and didn't realise it was a hentai genre. A upperclassman also showed me that if you searched on images.google.com "girl" you come with a bunch of nude pictures. Seems like google's search engine has changed significantly since then (e.g. to have the results must include the two topics you would use "AND" but now it seems you just use "+") so such results don't appear as easily, perhaps for the family safety.

although I'm glad my previous guess was wrong, I'm still kinda saddened by what happened =/ hopefully a good, happy ending for Karin and Kurusu...

She probably is going to revive him with that godly power of hers and we are going to see a cliche ending but I guess that I would not mind if that happens, they have been through so much crap that that kind of ending would be a good way to close the story. Thanks for the chapter. 

Waoh, this is still going on? I first started reading this when I was in mid-high school via mangareader.net

Where are the very last chapters of LS? I'm really curious to know the ending.

 

Soon.

Due to RL, Luck Stealer will be released every other week. Therefore, Chapter 47 will be released this coming Friday.

 

In the meantime, enjoy a not-a-real-preview for Chapter 46, curtesy of the SS-42 Gracias.

No, you don't confuse series, this guy appeared here:

I hardly remember anything about him. I think I should reread LS. ;)

Besides, am I the one who thinks that drawings in LS got worse? I mean faces - most of them are long (really, just look at the chin :P). I was quite surprised when I read first chapter and faces look... proportionally!        

Thanks for your answer, I vaguely remember that character, he seemed like an interesting character but I don't remember if the author never used him again in the story or if he appeared on later chapters but had little effect in the story.

As for the art, maybe it really worsened as the story progressed but not too much I think, except for the detail that you mention, the faces of the characters are quite odd; an example of a manga that really shows some deterioration in its art as the story progressed is Shigurui, the art of the first chapter is very good but after some chapters it's pretty easy to see that the quality and level of detail of the drawing were not as good as those from the earliest chapters, maybe it is the tight schedule that the mangakas have what makes necessary to reduce the quality of the art, some mangas with pretty good and detailed art like Berserk and Historie have irregular schedules while most of the weekly mangas have a considerable less detailed art, each page must consume a good deal of time. Maybe those strange faces were a way that the author used to make easier the task of drawing every chapter, if drawing a face with good proportions takes him a considerable amount of time.

Falling ceilings are serial killers in this manga. BTW I remember some character in this manga that was interested in Kurusu when he was a contracted killer, a guy that was some kind of mobster or something like that, he did not seem like your typical villain but he beat some guy and then smashed a glass in his mouth, I wonder if I am confusing different series and that guy was from another manga or that character do was from this story and was introduced but the author never developed that possible storyline before he finished this story. Thanks for the chapter.
