to be exact, the raw is now 26th chap and theres also a few omake chapters. thanks for translating this manga
I laughed, I learned, I loved.
Well I did two of those.
To put it in perspective, there's 6 volumes so far with ~4 chapters each totalling around 24. We'll be working on this for a loooong time.
Beta MC?
Not around here.
Looks like he is about to want a lesson in a another type of diving.
I need to know who she is. This wait is going to kill me.
New world indeed..
What a great new world you live in now MC...
God bless this manga
I was expecting 2 things from chapter 5:
but I got this
I'm not even mad, each chapter is making me like this manga more and more
"How Doti would behave if she didn't give a fuck and the senpais were fucking hardcore?"
This is like a funnier (and greater) version of Amanchu!
Humor wise, I don't think I've had a series make me laugh so often in 4 chapters as this has.
Our staff chooses what they want to work on (if room permits). Since some of our typesetters for Grand Blue have been oddly absent the past two weeks, we've had to ask people from our other projects to help with some chapters.
If you're interested in helping however, drop us an application over on our site!

I miss better female characters
I would like more if there was romance
I thought the little Tako-gift was cute.
? Still normal. This is Grand Blue we're talking about here.
Yes, normal. Except all those censored penises .
Oh, that was an unexpected, but pleasant change in tone. I thought they were going to have the crazy bro antics in full gear again, but they're actually talking about diving, wuut. But this is nice, good to see the manga can balance between its' humor and character/diving development.
For once they tried to be normal.
omg... theres no alchohol in this chap...
Misinformation! Scam!
I just checked out the first chapter. MC didn't wake up half-naked in front of a lecture hall. Am somewhat disappointed.
Wow, this manga reminds me a lot of Full Contact by Kitahama Kabuto and Minazuki Shinobu.
There's a lot of parallels here though Grand Blue seems to have a stronger focus on humor:
- A character discovering a new life-changing activity (martial arts and diving respectively).
- The MC moves to a place owned by two sisters and their parental figure.
- A beautiful, long-haired older sister who is a bit of a sis-con.
- The younger sister is a love interest who is cold at first, but slowly warms up to the main character.
- A cast of wacky side characters who get into humorous situations with the MC.
- Both stories are essentially slice-of-life with a bit of school life on the side.
That said, Full Contact is a great read so I'm hopeful that this one will be just as good. Thanks to Helvatica Scans for scanlating this. So far, I'm finding it absolutely hilarious!
What are you doing to your typesetters?
