I know this isn't really for personal things, but it concerns our very good friend, the internet. As you all know, MU (which involved no one from the US, no servers in the US) was taken down by the FBi on the 20th and countless uploads are now lost...

MegaUpload - Closed.
FileServe - Closing, does not sell premium.
FileJungle - Deleting files. Locked in the U.S..
UploadStation - Locked in the U.S..
FileSonic - the news is arbitrary (under FBI investigation).
VideoBB - Closed! Will disappear soon.
Uploaded - Banned in the U.S. and the FBI went after the owners who are gone.
FilePost - Deleting all material (will leave executables, pdfs, txts)
Videoz - Closed and locked in the countries affiliated with the USA.
4shared - Deleting files with copyright and waits in line at the FBI.
MediaFire - Called to testify in the next 90 days and it will open doors. Pro FBI
Org Torrent - Could vanish with everything within 30 days “he is under criminal investigation”
Network Share mIRC - Awaiting the decision of the case to continue or terminate Torrente everything.
Koshiki - Operating 100% Japan will not join the SOPA / PIPA
Shienko Box - 100% working China / Korea will not join the SOPA / PIPA
ShareX BR - group UOL / BOL / iG say they will join the SOPA / PIPA



And PSA, taken from Forbes:

ACTA contains global IP provisions as restrictive or worse than anything contained in SOPA and PIPA.

ACTA spans virtually all of the developed world, threatening the freedom of the internet as well as access to medication and food. The threat is every bit as real for those countries not involved in the process as the signatories themselves.
ACTA has already been signed by many countries including the US, but requires ratification in the EU parliament and the US Senate.
The entire monstrosity has been negotiated behind closed doors and kept secret from the public. Technocrats, beholden to the deep pockets of the entertainment lobby, have masked the agreement behind the misnomer of “anti-counterfeiting” when in fact it goes much, much further.
If you thought SOPA would break the internet, ACTA is much worse. And it could become law across the global economy without so much as a murmur of opposition.

Worse still, it’s not alone. Even more restrictive provisions exist in another trade agreement currently being hammered out by various nations.

Hello, all!

If you've been wondering about all the hold up in the last year, it's because we desperately need more help in the typesetting/cleaning department. Take the test and email us at nicepitching@gmail.com.


For cleaning, we need to get from here to there.

Redrawing sfx is preferred since it needs to be done in typesetting anyway, but if you can't, just leave a quick note (ex. "not editing sfx/need help w/sfx"). Huge, page-wide SFX don't need to be edited since they are huge and page-wide.

For typesetting, just follow instructions in the document.


We all want to get to volume 17 as soon as possible, so please apply to help out!

After six months of nothing, we present...chapter 25B! Head on over to our release post to download and enjoy! If there's any issues, please let us know!

Let us apologize for the incredibly delay in the release of this chapter (which in turn held up releases of later chapters, as well) - We have been through a lot these past months, including a bunch of personnel changes. We're hoping that, from this point on, we can bring you more scanslated Oofuri, without taking six months to do so :P

You can do your part to help, as well. If you'd like to help us bring more and more Oofuri to fellow fans, please direct your attention to our recruitment page in the release. We are looking for anyone who is willing to work. Just contact us through e-mail, and we'll get back to you! Experience is NOT necessary, though it is preferred.

Thank you all for your patience and continued support! We hope that we can prove ourselves worthy of it in the future! ♥

Release time! Head on over to our release page to download! :)

If there's any problems, please don't hesitate to let us know! Thanks for everything! ♥

Hey, hey! Chapter 24D has been released! Head to our release post to download.

If there's any problems, please let us know, and we'll fix it as soon as possible!

Unfortunately, there was a problem with the .zip files that were uploaded yesterday. A few pages had been accidentally left out.

The problem should be fixed now, so please head on over to our release post to re/download the COMPLETE Chapter 24C :)

Sorry for the inconvenience ♥ and thank you for your patience!

After a very long wait, Chapter 24C is now available in the release post.

We are actively looking for typesetters at the moment, so please leave us a comment if you're interested or e-mail nicepitching@gmail.com for more information.

We definitely want to get you the best quality as quickly as possible, but we need your help to do so! If you're interested in helping us at all, do let us know.

That's it for volume 12, guys. We'll see you all for volume 13! ^^

EDIT. nice_pitching is now separating its doujinshi and manga departments. We will be working on the manga, whereas nice_sawa will be the doujinshi group. Take a look at our sister group's projects, run by the hardworking zeroleonx, who started NP's manga division and has been providing us with excellent tank raws! Oofuri, onward ho! ⇒

EDIT 2. Thanks for the reply on typesetting! Now... any translators out there willing to help?
