Is there any scans of Devil Blues Volume 2?

>>135242871
Since when Hiromitsu is Hiramoto?

>>135242868
Supposedly he made Prison School out of spite, after nobody bought Me and the Devil Blues.

>>135243909
I'm not criticizing him for it man, I liked both works. I don't know any other authors who can write a serious story and a borderline-h gag comedy story and have them both turn out good.

>>135242871
These girls look kinda slutty. I don't like it.

>>135242871
This looks absolutely hilarious

I don't care, someone just needs to scanlate Devil Blues.

>>135244201
Did he really? That's sad, author's shine better when they make stuff they're interested in.

>>135244343
There's not much to scanlate. It got cancelled.

>>135244201
The whole thing feels like a giant joke, so it makes sense

That's what happens when you give up making things you want and start pandering to people to make cash.

Nobody's talking about Hiramoto's first manga.

>>135242805
By dint of nips having shit taste.

>>135244201
That's bullshit. All of his other works were comedies like Prison School, too.

>>135244540
Nope. New volume came out a few months ago. No scans out online but I've read it... Pretty nice volume. I can sum it up for anyone interested

>>135244470
I disagree.
When you make some your passionate about you are naturally going to be defensive about it.
Its only with things you don't care about that you go all out unabashedly and accept the theme of your series.

The ultimate paring would be passion for your theme and the balls not to apologize for it but thats rare.

>>135244540
It isn't it jut had a very long hiatus, the author "recently" released a new volume.

>>135244796
sure

Alright I'll dump images from it in a bit but summary of the first chapter:
We leave off on RJ about to play in the negro bar. He tries to send his "blues" out and in his head it's working. Then someone throws a beer bottle at him and realization sits in that he hasn't even started playing. They doubt he's a world class musician so as they threaten to take out Clydes eye he gets up and starts beating the shit out of RJ yelling for him to start playing then pulls his gun on him threatening to kill him. Of course the others grab him and are about to beat the shit out of him while RJ's cloth on his hand comes off and the place "transforms" pic is what it looks like

Follow up image of Clyde beating the shit out of RJ

>>135244796
We all know that the new volume came out, but are there still chapters coming out? Or did he put it back on hiatus? It seems ludicrously bizarre if he just put out a volume and then dropped the series again.

Now onto Ch2 of the next volume:
So Clyde's getting his ass beat... Constantly yelling at RJ to play and not to stop!A bit of deliberation between some of the known figures in the bar but ultimately Clyde's looking like hes gonna die meanwhile RJ's clutching his guitar just thinking "I might have been thinking about it wrong". He then picks up the end of the beer bottle that was smashed at him and puts it on his finger and plays. Thus shocking everyone to which Clyde says ""Your late... Now your getting serious...." RJ realizes he's been trying to control his hand this whole time but in order to use it he must "set it free" he starts playing and everyones dancing and kissing and things. Clyde and the one eyed dude are laughing with each other... Some of the key figures in the bar feel like somethings wrong... One looks and he sees two shadows playing and sees the shadow of his hand...Then remarks "This feeling... it's... the devil" It seems like his music has everyone going crazy. Few pics will be uploaded after

>>135245106
where can i find scans

>>135242805
god I love devil blues when he is continuing on it again? I mean I love prison school but shit devil blues needs love too

Ch3 of the next volume
Now we start the chapter with RJ thinking to himself... "Who's playing? Is it me? Or this hand?" "Whos making them cheer? Me?" Then looking at his shadow he feels a sense of fear. "Will I be safe if I let the hand play to its limit?" "If I keep letting this hand play until it's limit... What will happen to me?" Has a flashback to ike. He starts thinking "I have to stop immediately!" "Why can't I stop it" "All I know is that if I don't it's gonna be bad!" "This hand is the seed of destruction" "I can hear the footprints of disaster coming! "Fear is coming!"

>that delicious artstyle
oh yeah. screams hiramoto alright.

>>135242805
I've always thought this series was really overrated personally. As much as I like the idea behind it and the attempt at more mature and relevant manga, I just thought the execution was so weak throughout. It's hard to care about any of the characters when you get past their historical identity and the plot never seemed to be going anywhere, with each story just being a series of events with no thematic tie or arc.

>>135243909
>>135242805
>muh srs authors aren't allowed to make fun works

It's the other way around and OP is a retard.

Ch 3 continued
A bunch of picture of RJ looking scared as hell. A bunch of swirled images of the world around him. Then his devil hand is like fully seperated (forearm and everything... Imagine a persons arm reaching over ones shoulder) He turns back to look at the arm reaching over and it's all misty but its as swirl of images and teeth."Who?" A scream is heard and someones on the floor dead... One of the fucked up dogs that old dude sent after them .

Ch 4
Basically a huge shootout of everyone trying to kill the dog while RJ and clyde try to dodge all the bullets as well as the dog. Dog kills a few people. Ends up with the dog jumping out the window and they lock the door.

>>135246076
I really liked the manga's suspense. Plus that old guy made for a great antagonist

>>135242805
>8 years a black president
>the mangu

Ch 5
The people at the bar ask for the story about the dog... Clyde plays it off as if he doesn't know about it but one of the women there actually is a maid for macdonald and recognizes Clyde. Knowing this they tie RJ and clyde up around a tree outside... IIRC they work for Macdonald or something... They have a special relationship with the dude so they call him and tell him they've caught the two. Clyde starts to think "Where did I go wrong" RJ reminds clyde when he asked RJ if he's ever met the devil. Tells him what Ike told him "There's something worse than death" Clyde asks him and he says he saw it right before the dog came (All those swirling images) and that they locked eyes... All he knew about it was the fear. At this point Clyde starts to give up... and appears to start falling asleep. As his eyes fall asleep two beady eyes shine through the darkness... seems to be the dog but questionable (Pic will be provided later) Meanwhile Macdonald is on his way and wonders what taste RJ will be

>>135246076
I like it but I have to agree with what u said. There's nothing really amazing about the plot and RJ acts like an idiot most of the time.

>>135247152
>u

Ch 6
Macdonald's men show up and they lead him to the tree they were tied up to but they're gone.... One guy yells they've found a corpse! They look up the tree as somethings dripping down... RJ and clyde are running. Clyde's yelling about what the fuck was that? What fucking saved us!? They find the guitar case they threw behind with the rifle in it. Rifles gone... The three kids that chased after them have it they take it from the kids and tell them they're going back to the town (3 kids leading them) Meanwhile they've found the corpse... It's the dog but it's boned basically. While walking they see one of Macdonalds dudes driving back so they know how to get back now. Meanwhile Macdonald can't sleep in his bed... Clyde asks the kids about Toby (The kid macdonald brings around).. They say "Wasn't there a kid like toby before?" Clyde asks if hes still in the town anymore and they say "No". Macdonalds talking to the dude that was on his way back in a church... Toby is asleep but in his dream there's jesus on the cross. He comes down and slowly walks towards toby (Really freaky). Toby wakes up and says how he forgot to pray... Meanwhile RJ and Co make it to a lake where Macdonalds place is across. they find a rowboat. They're getting on when something jumps out of the water... It's a dog... not too sure if it's one of Macdonalds but it grabs RJ by the collar and pulls him in the water.. At that moment, Toby feels a drip on his head... Rubs his eyes to a small image of his dream (jesus walking to him).. Looks and it's Macdonald saying "Happy birthday Toby!" while drooling on him... Fucked up END

Then it ends with "Stay anticipated for V6" with some small pics of it... looks real nice

>>135247328
I'll repeat the question - have any more chapters been released beyond 6? Was it canceled there? Or did he put it on "indefinite hiatus" again, without explanation?

>>135245971

Thanks for the summaries, man. I already own the volume because I'm a buyfag.

Newfags detected.

The authors first work was perverted shit.

Nothing worse than newfag cucks who read Prison Blues and pretend they know anything about the author.

So why have we not seen any further volume (or chapter) releases beyond the first? It's been over a year since the first (new) volume was released, right? The last time I checked, there were no releases beyond that even available for sale.

>>135248122

v5 came out July 2015.

>>135248197
what the fuck google
we don't have scans for them then? and if we do, why has nobody picked it back up? I know all the major groups were reluctant to touch it when the announcement that it was starting back up came out, but surely after all this time and these releases, there must be some group willing to work on it.

That's what I fucking thought! Why is nobody scanning it? Does anybody know a Jap with a decent scanner or means of scanning? I have money to burn if necessary.

I'm trying to get the same shit done with pic related, which also matches my emotions in this moment.

>>135248641

Scanning is easy, just no one wants to translate/redraw all that shit.

>>135248685
Then why is nobody scanning it? That is what I am asking. I can get the rest of it accomplished by my own means.

Shut up Carlos. Consumerism is just filling the void left by the destruction of traditional social structures. It's your fault that Japanese men lost their DAMASHII and got forcibily turned into salarimen and the new generation wants nothing of it. And european men are even worse.
