Comment by Feedert — June 21, 2008 @ 2:39 am
This one of the best manga. I am really looking forward to the next chapter. It is getting very interesting with the emperor interest in Lord/lady kira.

Fun, fun, fun! I love this manga! So clever and humorous and with absolutely the best hero(ine) ever. Adore it, hope you’ll continue working on it! <3
Comment by Atlanta — September 20, 2008 @ 2:55 pm
ARRRGH! I want to know what happen next! This manga made me hunt down the original, and now I love it even more (I much prefer this version to the original). Kira’s handling of ‘his’ wife is awesome, and the emperor’s jealousy is very entertaining. I’m really curious(so curious I want to buy the japanese version), but amazon doesn’t have number 3 - 4 in stock. Thank you for scanlating this, and i hope you will updates soon - this is my favorite wingtip project.
Comment by Duchessa — October 26, 2008 @ 4:25 am
Thank you for scanning this and so introducing me to the original. I was going to say that I actually slightly preferred that to the manga, but with the latest chapter, now I’m not so sure. Please keep it up!
Comment by pseudorandom — November 2, 2008 @ 4:15 am
thank you so so much for translating this manga. i’ve been following it since the first translated one came out. please continue to translate this!^^ i really want kira to end up with the emperor but that sorta seems far from us right now…

i’m also very curious… how long does it take to proofread a manga chapter???
Comment by Anonymous — December 7, 2008 @ 11:08 am
It depends on the proof-reader and his/her schedule. We’ve been actively recruiting more proof-reader but not much success.

Thank you for the new chapter! now I’m back to square 1 trying to stop myself from surfing the web for anything “the change”-related. lol. when will Chapter 8 come out? does anyone know where I can read the novel? the wikipedia only talks about the original work. Hope this manga will be a bit different from the original work. Does anyone know what happen at the end??? thanks again.
Comment by annatty — April 28, 2009 @ 12:01 am
Thank you very very much for the new release ^O^
Comment by Riko — April 29, 2009 @ 2:05 am
Yay complete volume 2! I love this thing, in no small part because I really like “Torikaebaya Monogatari” — despite the “everything’s back to normal thanks very much” ending.
BTW, I don’t know whether you want to update your description, but it’s slightly misleading: the manga by YAMAUCHI Naomi is an adaptation of a modern novel by HIMURO Saeko, which was in turn based on “Torikaebaya Monogatari”. (See the Wikipedia article for details.)

Comment by aznchocoholic — May 6, 2009 @ 8:57 am
I love this manga and as I was searching for more… I found that there is actually a book on this.. translated into english, right now it’s $86 on amazon.com I think that is a little too expensive.. but ‘The Changelings’ really is a good story.. the relationship between the characters is perfectly complex.. I never knew things could get so complicated when one changes genders.. lol
Comment by asdfkjl; — May 12, 2009 @ 3:02 am
pseudorandom >> Thank you. Fixed now.
asdfkjl; >> The book must be the original Torikaebaya monogatari. It has a different tone from the manga. More serious as it depicted the life of the people in that era.

Comment by Kai-sama — June 8, 2009 @ 1:04 am
Being proof-read means it has already been translated but in the process of checking for accuracy, correcting grammars, rephrasing awkward sentences, and such.

Thank you all so much for translating this manga! I found it by hitting the “Random” button on Mangareader, and once I started reading it, I couldn’t put it down. It’s not only hilarious, it’s hugely, delightfully complicated. It’s a great story and I’m very glad you chose it.
