(3) A note for your purchase guide: Voices of a Distant Star was republished by Vertical Comics in 2018 with a new translation, as digital and print. Vertical has since been acquired by Kodansha, so you can find further info (ISBN etc.) on their site.

Thanks a lot! I will update the information!

(2) on the Keita Sahara pen name and what shoujo works had supposedly been published under it, even after extensive digging in the LJ communities of old. I'm glad I ran a search again now and could finally solve that mystery rather than mention something on the site that I haven't fact-checked haha. Thanks for that too!

I really feel the "supposedly"! Works by Keita Sahara seemed like some kind of mythical creature for a while there. All my digging has also only generated more info on one of those works... The hunt continues.

(1) Hello!! I just wanted to say, thank you for your amazing work in compiling all of this, including the careful masterlist and tag library! As a long-time fan of Mizu Sahara, there's a lot of content I hadn't seen and hadn't been aware of prior to seeing them here (anything not listed on Mangaupdates, basically, so doujins and novel illustrations)! I'm writing on a shrine/fansite with Mizu Sahara content right now; when I'd started over a year ago, I could not find any information

Wonderful to see another long-time fan! Please send the link to the Mizu Sahara shrine when it's done!
