Announcement! posted by Skynorth on 17 Sep 2007 I don't like people hopping around the site's directories, especially because I have personal stuff on here. I have logs so I know what directories you tried. I just banned a couple of people for doing that.

Raws here we come posted by Thunderlord on 15 Sep 2007 Chapter 177 released. Thanks for all your support, as we have finally caught up with the raws. Hopefully we'll be able to get you the mangas a week at time as they are published in Japan.

176 V2 posted by Skynorth on 13 Sep 2007 Version 2 has been released of chapter 176 due to it missing the color page done by our forum member: meanlilkitty. It is the same filename, so just download 176 again and you will be fine.

Just one more! posted by Skynorth on 13 Sep 2007 We are just one away to catching up with the raws! Chapter 176 is released! Enjoy!

Some News posted by Skynorth on 11 Sep 2007 Hi all! I have recently promoted two Super Moderators to Administrators who are: Penguinism and Blant. Please congratulate them on their promotion.

Also, I have put up a small sponsor banner in the right menu. So if you want to sponsor us and would like to have your banner and link there, please click the banner for more details.

This is just wrong! posted by Skynorth on 10 Sep 2007 This post is mostly dedicated to comments made in the last news post. I apologize since many of you wait patiently, but some do not.

Manga scanlation process is very tedious, at times hard and very time consuming. We provide this service for free (at times asking for donations or clicking the ADs) in our free time, which we really don't have a lot of. Many of us have full-time or part -time jobs or school to go to, or both in my case.

I know that we slowed down, by a day. Just a day. Our current release time is exactly 3 days per chapter! 84 days divided by 28 releases equals to 1 releases per 3 days. You consider this slow? Please tell me.

Besides we are 1 chapter away to catching up to the raws! Just one more! And then we will release 1 chapter a week. Oh how much complaining we will receive then. Please, no complaining with that "In my opinion" excuse, please come up with something better. That "In my opinoin" excuse is the lowest form of excuse anyone can come up with. Oh it is your opinion, then its OK, because its YOUR opinion. Behold the power of your opinion.

Chapter 175 is released...

174 posted by Skynorth on 06 Sep 2007 Thanks for multiple reminders that we we're late. Chapter 174 is released.

Move completed! posted by Skynorth on 01 Sep 2007 Hello! We've finally completed our move to a new, more powerful server provided by one of our staff members, Blant. This server has more RAM, so it works out for everyone.

I've been working on getting all features of the site and forums back online: Air Gear soundtrack player, download system, shoutbox, gallery. Unfortunately, all the submissions to the gallery have not been saved, thus it is currently empty. I know some members submitted a lot of art and wallpapers, and I apologize. We ask you to share your graphics/art with us by re-uploading again. Thanks for understanding. Otherwise, everything else is working perfectly!

Edit: I managed to bring back all the old submissions to our gallery! Everything is there!

Another cleaner found! posted by Skynorth on 30 Aug 2007 We have found our final cleaner! Please say hello to daimaru. Welcome to the Sora Scans staff! Thus, we do not need anymore cleaners. We thank everyone that applied!

Moving to a new server posted by Skynorth on 29 Aug 2007 We are going to be moved to a new server by the end of the day. Expect some downtime because the domain needs to be propagated again.

Edit: we have released chapter 173. We are not offering it for direct download at the moment due to the server move. Please use one of the links below:

MegaUpload 173

Now Hiring! posted by Penguinism on 26 Aug 2007 With changes coming in the future, Sora Scans is now hiring TWO(2) cleaners to be a part of our staff. Obviously, we are seeking cleaners who have some experience with the daily doings of a cleaner, for example, how to level and redraw if necessary.

For more information and to see how to apply to be one of our cleaners, please check out the Announcement section of our forum.

Edit by Aeonsky: chapter 172 has been released! Go download!

Edit 2 by Aeonsly: V2 released due to page 5 missing some non "story-altering" text. We are sorry, my fault! Same filename!

Forum Upgrades posted by Skynorth on 26 Aug 2007 Today I decided to work on the forum instead of scanlations, I have made several upgrades to the forum:

1. Replaced an old shoutbox with a new one (old one caused problems).
2. A line break was placed between a signature and the message divider.
3. Installed a gallery, start uploading!
4. Upgraded our download system, go take a look!

172 coming up soon, by the way!

Chapter 171 Page 17 posted by Skynorth on 25 Aug 2007 When I was fixing the mistakes in 171, I mixed up page 17 with 170. I released this erred 171 a long while after the initial release, so most people got the right version. This has been fixed now. I'm sorry and enjoy.

Chapter 170, 171 posted by Skynorth on 24 Aug 2007 Chapter 170 and 171 have been released! Say thanks to the rest of the staff. Pretty cool chapters gotta say.

Also, why didn't anyone tell that there's was a horrible looking bug in the news template when you viewed or site in Internet Explorer 7? Anyways, it has been fixed. Enjoy!

Chapter 169 posted by Skynorth on 19 Aug 2007 I managed to sneak in a chapter before my trip to Canada. Please thank Thunderlord and Penguinism (our new cleaner) for the hard work. Enjoy!

mIRC channel is opened again! posted by Skynorth on 18 Aug 2007 Please join Sora Scans on irc at #sora on irc.irchighway.net! Enjoy talking there!

Chapter 166 V2, 167 V2, 168 V2 posted by Skynorth on 18 Aug 2007 Hello! We have released V2 of the latest three chapters due to extremely minor mistakes that do not affect the storyline in any way. I do not recommend you downloading them since it causes lag on the forums and site. Take care everyone!

Chapter 166-168 released posted by Thunderlord on 17 Aug 2007 Three awesome Chapters have been released. Due to the fact of being short staffed, instead of a Mega release we'll be releasing the Chapters in 3 phases to catch up with the raws. So be prepared for the next release and thank Aeonsky for spending sleepless nights to get the chapters ready for you
