Any thoughts on this Mangadex announcement? I hope you can continue your work with Youth Frontier 🥺

It's definitely worrisome... but we plan on continuing to TL Seishun Frontier no matter what. Chapters will go up on the 'Dex as long as possible, but in the event that the site goes down we have alternative hosting options and will look out for wherever the scanlation community moves to.

English-translated version of HISADAKE’s interview from Newtype Magazine (August 2025 issue)

Not too much new info, but there's some insight into how the project started and why the setting of near-future Japan was chosen.

Seems like HISADAKE wants the manga to be a generous source of fan pilgrim locations in Kanagawa... which I'm all for.

Seishun Frontier Ch02 TL Notes

Continuing with our furigana watch... again, this chapter only has one instance.

Page 010

When Miorine is explaining to Suletta that Guel is the "Institute's Holder" (学園ホルダー, gakuen horudaa), the title has 特持生 written next to it as furigana.

特持生 (tokutaisei) is an abbreviation for 特別待遇学生 (tokubetsutaiguu gakusei) or 特別待遇生徒 (tokubetsutaiguu seito), which means special-treament student/pupil.

It refers to the system in Japanese schools, usually private institutions, for recognizing and rewarding high academic achievement (on entrance exams, general grades, attendance, etc.). It's meant to attract outstanding students to bolster a school's reputation and unlike general scholarship programs, it's even available to students from financially well-to-do backgrounds.

This seems like a pretty straightforward use of gikun to give an explanation of what being Asticassia's holder means in this AU.

Finally picking this up again... did a few more pages of the Commemorative Book Scanlation.
