Many of you may not notice that the previous version's scans were actually digital photos (with many long hours of editing). I was never quite satisfied with the way it turn out, so when the chances of possible HQ scans came up today during one of my searches for new Nakamura stories, I instantly redid them. So I hope you will enjoy this new HQ version.

Title: The Story of Blue Bird
Managa: ENO.
Rating: G
The story can be confusing because it's so short and the characters look alike (it took me a while to get that it's two stories about this girl and guy told at the same time). But Eno's art is just so pretty that I had to share it. So please enjoy!

Concerning Before the End by Eno, the mangaka herself have dropped the series due to lack of interest. So for me, it's on a hold. When I have more free time, I might pick it up again. BUT, if there are people that are willing to translate it, then I'll be glad to give you the raws.

There are no real chapters for this story, so I decided to separate them into parts according to the number of pages released by the magazine.

After reading this very short one shot, I was so blown away by the story. Nakamura sensei's personifacation of the piano as a cute little girl was true genius. The story follows the girl's journey from one possesor of the piano to another. I loved the ending (the guy was super HOT!) So I hope you guys will like it as well.

Just signed up today here. LJ seem pretty cool. Trying to figure out layouts right now. *sigh* I am never good with these graphics. It's driving me crazy. Using pics from Trinity for it. It's ironic how I don't know her name. But she is just so pretty. A must check out manga and the art book is so amazing! I wish i have it. It's around $150 USD. But it's limited edition, leather cover, HQ paper, etc. *sigh* But I got the scans from other forums, so I am ok now. But I would love to get the artbook when I get some cash. So moving on to testing the layouts.
