Are You Male or Female?

Achi — Thu, 19 Nov 2009 04:34:46 GMT

I was just wondering about our demographics. Since we scanlate ecchi shounen I'm assuming that almost everyone here is male. But I've been surprised to see that we actually have a good deal of female readers.

I am of course male, as is most of the Ala Atra team.

Persona Universe

Kaverinebonhands — Mon, 23 Nov 2009 01:34:03 GMT

If any of you have ever played any of the Shin Megami Tensei series of games or more specifically Persona 3 and 4, you would know what a Persona-User is. Persona-Users are able to manifest a portion of their own ego in the form of a mythological creature or being. Each Persona is tied to one of the 22 Major Arcana cards of Aleister Crowly's Thoth Tarot Deck (although the world Arcana is not really used, except in end bosses) If you had a persona what creature would it be?

General Art Thread

Seeing as I couldn't find an art forum, I'll just make this. What is this? It's an art thread were anyone can post their art. Now keep in mind there are some rules on what is and isn't art, what you can't and can post etc. 1. Art is art, but keep in mind there are different types of art, two being traditional and the other digital. -Traditional art is stuff you make with paper and other materials, such as a painting. - Digital on the other hand uses computers, now ...

Download Youtube Vids Easier

Galooza — Tue, 03 Feb 2009 18:13:13 GMT

Just found this trick on Jcafe. Since I think it was Brazen who was asking if you can DL from Youtube, yes! Search out the vid you want and put the word KISS before Youtube so it looks like the following: http://www.kissyoutube.com/watch?v=tjnMIlbD0n0 That's Part 1 of Ala Alba OVA 2 btw. This will redirect you to a DL site where it downloads as a .flv file (flash) so the entire thing would be around 70MB rather than 170MB Try it, it works nice Note that the smallest version is bad quality ...

Personally, Dynasty should have seen this coming. It's been over half a year since they released chapter 91.

Allegedly, the Admin for Dynasty Scans started it up just ...
