It's been a long time since I've done one of these...a really long time. I'm going to have to touch base on a few things to make sure we're all on the same page regarding it:

*First of all, regardless of all my other projects and everything else that I'm going to do, Sakigake! Otokojuku will be done by the end of the year. I've been getting rather bogged down in life to prevent me from getting to it on some days, but I will personally make sure the series is over before the year is out. Regarding Akatsuki! Otokojuku...I sort of hope I can find or someone can provide a full-series run of it (it did finish up in Super Jump recently) so maybe I can eventually get to it but it won't be in the near future. The same goes for Tenka Musou: Edajima Heihachi-den...which I sort of want to do more than Akatsuki!...because it's the story of Edajima.

*I've been meaning to do a certain chapter of Hell Teacher Nube that is the next one due to it being one of the cuter/sexier/more infamous ones...but that too has been bogged down as of late regarding my work and my desire to get Otokojuku done before the year's out. The series will continue to go on regardless though.

*After I finish Otokojuku, I actually want to cool down with a few one-shots. One of my big plans is trying to get to Osamu Akimoto's recent one Succeed (and yes, KochiKame will return, but only after Nube's done), but I also have anothe recent one I promised someone...and a one-shot that is in the final Otokojuku volume that I probably will place with Otokojuku. (so I don't screw people up like when I did that one Obata one-shot at the end of Cyborg Grandpa G.

*After all the one-shots are done, we're moving onwards and upwards to another new project. I can't quite say what it is yet but I do have a couple clues: it did run in WSJ (like a lot of the others I've done)...but it's source and base may actually come from popular fiction...but then, popular fiction didn't have this character like this! Get ready to run to the "jungle" as a comedy "king" of late 80s Jump gets swinging soon!

I have a couple other ideas too but that should be enough to alert you for the moment.
