I CAN'T

FUCKING BREATHE.

blanc has my soul and heart, i can't believe blanc it's ending (i read that the last two chapters just came out in japan) but the thing i can't believe the most is hOW MUCH I LOVE THIS MANGA AND ALSO HOW MANY TEARS I CRIED ONLY WITH BLANC. if you watched the dokyuusei movie you MUST read the whole series, it's totally worth it even if sajō it's still kinda insecure.

we had a lot of fluff in dokyuusei and sotsugyosei, with o.b too, maybe that's why nakamura-sensei said “uhm, ANGST” when she was writing the plot. in conclusion: dokyuusei series bl of the century.

Doukyuusei Series Vol 3 is out in English now! :D

Sotsugyosei Spring is out in English in print as Classmates vol 3!! :D :D :D Like the other two volumes the translation is FANTASTIC! :D The combo of being so excited to finally get to read this in official English translation plus the story itself made me cry at several times while reading it. IT’S JUST SO WONDERFUL!! :D :D :D 

They still haven’t announced if they’re licensing the rest of the series (Sora to Hara, O.B., and Blanc). T_T But vol 1 and 2 did very well in sales, so if we all support the official release of vol 3 (either by buying it from any of the places that sell mangas, or by requesting it from your local library) that will help increase the chances of them licensing the rest! Also on the Seven Seas website they have a survey where you can request series you want them to license. So if you haven’t requested those titles yet (they’re very strict about only requesting a specific title ONE TIME PER PERSON) please go fill that out! ^_^

I have too many favorite scenes from this to pick my absolute favorite, but this moment is definitely one of them. Hahaha I knew what the lines were, I knew this scene was coming, and yet I still made a very loud squeak of joy when I got to this part. XD

Doukyuusei Series Vol 2 is Out in English now! :D

Eeee Sotsugyosei Winter (Aka vol 2 of the Doukyuusei Series) is officially out in English in print for the first time!! :D They’re calling it Classmates Vol 2 with the subtitle of Sotsu Gyo Sei Winter. My copy came today and the translation is fantastic—it’s both accurate and feels natural in English! :D Aaahhhhh these boys are so adorkable and make my heart so happy! ^_^ Although re-reading this simultaneously killed me because so many of the things they’re dealing with in Blanc right now had their origins in this volume. T_T  

They still haven’t licensed anything beyond Sotsugyosei Spring (aka vol 3 of the series) but Seven Seas said on their twitter that if the first 3 volumes sell well they’ll license the rest of the series. So please support the official English version and buy it if you’re able! It’s $13 retail price (but places like rightstufanime have it for around $9) and available at all the usual places that sell mangas. It’s available digitally as well, just make sure you’re getting the Seven Seas translation that was released in 2019 and not the terrible digital version from long ago.

Vol 3 is already up on most sites for pre-order and publishers see pre-order sales as one of the biggest indicators of how popular a series is. So if you’re able to pre-order vol 3 as well, please do so and show the publisher your support for this series! After all, we want Occupation to Beloved to get licensed in English so we can see Sajou propose to Kusakabe and hear them call each other by their first names for the first time! :D

Can’t afford to buy the books? Ask your local library to carry it! Librarians love getting suggestions for titles, and the Doukyuusei Series would be a great addition to their older teen LGBT collection!

Once again, amazon has a nice preview, so I don’t see the need to post any preview pics. But I really love this quote in general (my college had this as its underlying philosophy ^_^ ) and it’s also relevant to Sajou’s current existential crisis in Blanc.
