…I lost the password to the new blog, so for now I’ll still keep the old blog updated.
Yes, we came back. We killed the baby two years ago and brought it back thanks to a merger with sonyapiss.com.
This post will likely be the last post we will make in this blog, any new releases and announcements from us will now be done over at yakisoba.bearblog.dev.

I still can’t believe that it has, somehow been almost 3 years since I first started releasing chapters for this group. Back then I was really fond of the series, and since there were no releases for 2 years, I thought it’d be really wonderful if someone stepped up and continued the series from where the last group ended. And so I did, releasing chapters with a few issues along the way, but still releasing through the second half of 2018. I also ate more than what I could possibly bite, picked up more stuff along the way and joined MangaDex Scans.
2019 passed, and I consider the first half of it to be the best year of the group. I did my best to avoid delays and at one point was releasing a chapter nearly every 3 days, all within a “new chapter must be delivered every 5 days schedule”. If I only could keep it for the rest of the group’s life… But as the release of Volume 8 drew near, I started getting lazy and probably also having issues with the group.
But ultimately, I got it to release, and kept releasing chapters, although not as frequently as I used to. I also left MD Scans over a lack of releases for the title I was doing around this time, but honestly I don’t remember much anymore.
Then, 2020 happened. You’d think that a global pandemic would have made me more productive and finally give me the opportunity to catch up with Japan, right? Well, no. During the early months I was fine, but as the year passed, I started getting involved with other communities. After Chapter 115’s release, I tried to return to scanlation various times, sometimes with OK results, but more often than not ultimately not motivated to keep up.
I also realized how my life was going, and started to focus more on my studies and what I really wanted to do. Ultimately, I decided to focus on that in favor of scanlation.
It’s now 2021. I have realized that, if I want to preserve the Kill Me Baby series and see it get timely updates, then I probably am not the person who will eventually do it. I want to see such a thing being done, so ultimately I don’t mind passing the baton whether directly or indirectly to other, more capable persons.
Kudos to Kaduho, who was following me on Twitter at one point, all the people who worked with me on the scanlations at some point, Ooya-san, who gave me raws for a few chapters and everyone who has ever seen my releases, whether stumbled upon a meme of my panels or read them all multiple times.
Baby, please rest in peace. 2018-2021.

I finally returned after a 4 year long slumber. From this point on I don’t guarantee timely releases anymore.
But I guess I’ll keep this post pretty quick; so here are the links:
-Yakisoba, who has been studying harder than usual recently.
And it’s not a Kill Me Baby chapter.
Nor a Kagaku Chop one.
Not even a new series.
Rather, it’s something else.
…The GA: Geijutsuka Art Design Class artbook!
I might or might have not hinted at this before through the credit pages of the “latest” KMB chapter which no one reads, but even then, even if you don”t know what GA is; I still hope you enjoy this artbook.
Now that all is said, to the link, a torrent since ~625MB is too big for me to create a DDL link on: Download (Nyaa)
– Yakisoba, whose life was being extremely chaotic between this and the last release.
>April fools chapter uploaded on the 1st
>Actual release takes over 3 weeks after that
>And you’re quarantined, even; meaning it shouldn’t take that long
Hoo boy has been the scheduling really bad this time around. Hopefully future chapters are released more frequently, because one day I’ll end up giving up scanlation and you’ll all miss me, crying on /a/ and other such places about the lack of translations.
Anyways, the links are right here: Read Online/Download
-Yakisoba, who should be running for “Scanlators/Manga Time Kirara fans/Waifuists/Whatever With The Worst Work-Life Balance”
APRIL FOOLS, BITCH! This was ONLY qualityy checked by me, everything else was done by The Nico Knights instead.
Because it’s PERFECTLY LOGICAL to release chapters every 3 weeks! OF COURSE! It’s not like Coronavirus has both put me in quaratine here in Thailand and delayed the production of KMB as whole, anyway.
-Tonkotsu, who’s currently spending quarantine with her waifu Youko-sama.
Bad news, I know.
Because I discovered that doing KMB alone is hard for me, let alone 3 different projects thanks to Corona-chan, Kisaragi, KiraFan, Pokemon Y, the lack of a translator and my own laziness.
And yes, that means we “dropped” Kagaku Chop and Ochifuru. “Dropped” becuase the original purpose of this group means we could return to doing Kagaku Chop once I stop being lazy.
Also, the Discord you all knew about is now going to be used for group stuff only. Instead, I’m totally-not-become-a sellout by promoting my personal Discord instead! Don’t worry, it has KMB discussion as well.
The End.
-Yakisoba, who’s currently learning Japanese.
Neither did my Kisaragi Yamaguchi obsession nor replaying Pokemon Y for the sake of 2014 nostalgia.
And it’s not like I recently lost my translator or anything.
-Yakisoba, who will NOT go to school until April 1st.
