How very descriptive; let me just try every font.

Here's four semi-random fonts that might fit what you want.

Fix the top left panel's setting, and repair the punctuation/grammar.

>Oh, if it isn't Koko / notsu-kun!
...
>Hm? You *are* Kokonotsu-kun, right?
...
>Well, don't just stand there. Come in. It's a big bath.
etc.

What the fuck is that standing line, though? I hate ESL translations.

I think he's talking about his dick, trying to hide and deny his erection
>>
>>156052876
Looks gud except for the first bubble, try not to get the text too close to the borders

>>156053039
I'm guessing there's an erection joke there somewhere in the original text
>>
>>156046643
Just ask someone else to do it?

Are you new to this world? "Get a new redrawer"? That's like telling a Somalian that they'd be less skinny if they ate more.

Ohh, Tomizawa. That shit's fun.
It's localized in France, btw.

He currently has a series called Enchantland on niconico.

Have any of you guys tried using Indesign and Illustrator for scanlation? What are your thoughts of this?

>It's localized in France, btw.
That's my default assumption for anything worth reading.

What I don't understand is why almost none of the stuff for which he's the original author has been scanlated since Milk Closet. Only the alien cat oneshot has been done in the last 10 years, as far as I know.

There is.

There was Yume Nikki.

Akune(was never released as a separate vol), Enchantland(digital only, chapter count limited) and Alien 9 Next(doujin) raws are hard to get. We're left with Propeller Heaven and Yumihari.

Here's enchant ch1-8 raws.

The text on the second part of the first bubble and on the second bubble is a bit too high.
Also, where did the punctuation go? Use these 2 things: .,
