“Rori Ana: Little Anal Collection” by Moku Ujiie.
This was formerly an Akiba-Online project headed by Chompy, until he became disinterested about continuing it… possibly due to numerous delays. It eventually became a solo project of mine, but on the info page, I gave Chompy and Akiba-Online credit. It was Chompy, after all, who initiated the project, I wanted him to see it through… even if he, himself, didn’t want to! XD
It was also Chompy’s vision to see the manga released as a whole. So when I took over the project, I thought I’d honor that vision. I even gave Chompy first peek of my first version and sought his assistance in proofreading. I also had 2Hip of WWOEC help with the proofreading duties. Thanks to 2Hip and Chompy, I think I churned out one first class translation and edit… with virtually no mistakes! (Of course, there is always the possibility that all three of us missed something!)
Translating and editing this manga was both a pleasure and a chore. It’s ironic enough that I’m not really into anal sex stories, and yet here I am translating and editing a manga entirely about anal sex! A couple of things made translating this manga a chore: 1) the poor quality scan, which made it extremely difficult to distinguish some of the itty-bitty kanji, and made the color pages look really crappy; and 2) the real downbeat (and somewhat depressing) stories that featured lolis being raped.
Another subject matter I don’t really care for: Rape… unless it’s reverse rape, then that’s usually played with some humor.
And speaking of humor, what made translating this manga a pleasure were the lighter, funnier stories. Luckily, there were a few in there that made translating this worthwhile to me. I prefer lolis to be happy and cute!

CHAPTER COMMENTARY
When I initially started working with Chompy and Akiba-Online, I was only planning on doing five stories: 4 chapters from the manga and a bonus story that Chompy wanted to include. I initially did commentaries for those stories. I’m re-presenting those comments here with some revision for the last story. I’ll probably include some additional comments on the other stories, whenever possible.

“An Allowance Advisory”
My first story for Akiba Online. Originally, this story was “loosely” translated by someone else… no credits were given, so I would assume “Anonymous.” I say “loosely” ‘coz there were errors here and there, including the title. So I ended up re-translating it. |

“Oni-ichan”
“Oni” in this case means “demon” or “ogre.” The second story I worked on. I did minor changes to the translation. Short and gloomy, IMHO. |

“Sukisuki Sensei”
Now this story was more my speed! Cute, erotic, with a funny ending! Unlike “Oni-ichan,” this story went through a bit more re-translating. |

“Akogare no Hito” (The Person Of Longing)
This one I ended up chucking the script and starting from scratch, much like “An Allowance Advisory.” Moku Ujiie’s style is a bit different here compared to some of the other chapters. He could have continued to flesh out the characters and story a bit more in continuing chapters… IMHO. |

“Su-pa- Sentou” (Super Public Bath)
A short, uber-cute story… if your into uber-cuteness… ’bout an uber-bath with magical uber-lolis! Okay, maybe they’re not uber-lolis, but the do seem somewhat magical! This story wasn’t part of the original manga. It was introduced in the December 2006 issue of Comic Lo. And since it was a story from Comic Lo, it had advertisement underneath the title for “Rori-Ana.” I took much liberty editing in the advertisement out so this story would fit in with the rest of the manga. I even renumbered and rearranged the pages and listed the story in the table of contents; so it truly looks as if it’s part of the manga! This one I previously noted as being one of my best edits. This, being the last story, and the first story, which is also in full-color, make great bookend pieces for the manga. In fact, I’d say this story finishes the manga very well… and on a happy note! |
