[artbook] KOHIGEN

S'UP GUYS. Tagging is going kinda haywire, novels and manga are going eeeh'-errr with a resounding beat, and I'm feeling exceptionally bored, so. Artbooks rummaging ensues, and I present you with just this one because I upped it ages ago and links are still functioning and it's v. v. v. gorgeous and detailed and um wow. :O

Slighly bl-ish, creative nudity (I think) and blah blah nothing really completely non-worksafe. In fact, I should probably go rifle through the scans again before I spread some propaganda.

No fancy coding, this time.

[raw] shin anygo onshi - youn in-wan & yang kyung-il

2007-07-23T23:34:18Z

The only thing I can say is: this is the manifestation of neonclover's morbidly gorgeous manga colouring, as seen at royalcolor. And that the entire series kicks heavy butt. AND SUCH PRETTY PRETTY ARTWORK, despite all the head slicing, body ripping, disfigured faces, blood and gore etc etc. It's a manwha, to give you the heads up (Korean authors), but it's managed to reach the Japanese scene, thus why all the raws are in Japanese (excl. volume 16).

So without further ado...

A long time ago, in the eastern country of Jushin, there were secret agents called “Angyo-Onshi”. Angyo-Onshi, in disguise, visited various places as the king’s ambassadors. They would defeat corrupt rulers and bring justice for those who are powerless. And even now, although the Jushin had come to its end… a lone Angyo-Onshi still wanders… some time… some place.

A few post-downloading notes:
~ v#08 OSA-LOGY: ROFL CLAMP. You ladies never cease to amaze. I edited the original image so the merging isn't so obvious, but alas I forgot to put it in the file: here ya go.
~ v#16: Since my parents were galling me during the beginning of the holidays (it's summer, baby!), I was sans the internet for some time. During which, I took on the toll to attempt at editing! =O Fuck yesh, it's annoying but somewhat enjoyable even though I only cleaned the background--I refused to do any aligning--but then again. Doing 208 pages on your lonesome doesn't really strike anyone's fancy. Anyways, they're partially clean, I attempted at double pages (though I missed a few out since they were badly aligned), and it was my first time working with coloured scans. Examples:
1a → 1b
2a → 2b
3a → 3b (and I believe this is my greatest achievement)

I'm still a n00b at this...editing thing, but. Give me a prod if you're interested, I'll upload it then. ♥ ;3
