[scanlation] 7 Seeds Volume 21 Chapter 111

[pandaranda]

Ahaha... I legitimately forgot about today's release, my bad! ^^;; I was going to be good and release on time today! Argh, too many things to think about at once does my head in! XD TBH, just then I was totally chilling out and watching MKR...Manu is so French (in the best way possible). XP But honestly, I have been working on assignments all day!

Okay okay, enough excuses. XD First quickly before the release, I translated a cute little fan comic strip for all those SemixNatsu fans (and non-fans like myself too! XD). Check it out over here. I'm also happy to take requests! So if you come across a 7 Seeds comic strip that interests you, just request away! One can never have too many distractions, hohoho! XD

And before I forget, today is bee's birthday!! Honestly, she's so awesome! I just realised that she's been helping me out for almost 2 years now, my first ever helper back in the day when it was just Pandaranda and Bee. <3 Do you remember those days? If you do, thank you for sticking with us for so long. ;) Anyway, everyone should wish her a happy birthday because she's awesome and a fantastic and super fast cleaner!!!

~♥♥♥ HAPPY BIRTHDAY BEE! ♥♥♥~

Okay, time for the last chapter of volume 21, chapter 111! :D Man this chapter, this chapter! I hope you appreciate the effort we put into it. Let me tell you, it was just as bad, if not worse, than 107 in terms of editing finesse! XDDD

7 SEEDS Chapter 111 - "Grace"

The ethereal white horse-like creatures have led Hana to a rare sight during the dry season: a lush green forest. What will Hana find in there? A precious life-sustaining water source? A friend? A foe? Or something more terrifying...?

Our Chapter Impressions

Acide
WTF is with this tree?! I can’t believe it ate the horse (I don’t care about the crocodile). At first when I saw the double pages with the tree I was amazed (Panda and Dragon did an AMAZING job on it; when I saw the scan, I didn’t even think it was a double page…). It looks so beautiful and all. Seriously WTF!

The horses look like unicorns, I love them. So cute. Ahh it’s been so long since we saw those two that I don’t even remember their story, Fujiko and the other person (looks like a girl, but I don’t know more than that). Well it’s cool that Hana is not alone anymore.


Dragonator
Chapter catchphrase: “Itadakimasu!”

Personal notes: You know, I have never seen a real crocodile in my life, let alone an attack, but I can’t imagine it being much worse than having to edit the SFX for it. Well… maybe not for the victim. I imagine that would suck. But at least anyone watching doesn’t have to clean all that mess, if they’re not standing close enough to get any of the flying bits on them.

Chapter notes: Oh Gods! I had to ask. Look at all those new species. Piggybaras aside, all those species and the ones we saw until now must have taken at least hundreds of thousands of years, if not millions, to evolve. I’d really love to see one of the cryogenic chambers now. The tech level must be amazing to survive that long. But then again I can’t really see cities and pianos surviving that long. The timeline for this series IS KILLING ME!

TLDR: “Despite rumour, Death isn't cruel - merely terribly, terribly good at his job.” ― Terry Pratchett, Sourcery


Pandaranda
That treeeee!! Freaking terrifying! XD Oh oh, the poor horsey's mother. T_T But such is the way of life, as I'm sure Hana is keenly being reminded of. But I have to hand it to Dragon, he did an AWESOME job with cleaning the SFX in this chapter. He deserves a mega round of applause! XD Didja see that double spread?! x3 Isn't it just gorgeous? Tamura-sensei is amazing with her scenery as usual! :D

But omgsh omgsh omgsh omgsh, is it?! IS IT?! FUJIKO?! :OOOO!! *squeal* It's been so long, what?! 15 volumes?! OMGSH!! I know some people might have forgotten about the other members of Team Spring, but I've been waiting so long for this, SO LONG! AHHHH!! I hope I'm not the only one who's excited about this. xD

The forest reminded me of in the insect forest right away. Then Hana even mentioned it. After how carefree Hana was getting this was a scary wake up call. Great ch.

I wonder who is with Fujiko?
edit: Chisa maybe.

[pandaranda]

Ah really?? I thought it looked a lot different. XD The insect forest seems a bit more dense and shrubby, this forest seems more tropical rainforesty, all lush and perfused with water everywhere. It reminds me of lost civilizations deep within the jungle. Those stones where the waterfalls are, they remind me of that. xD

But IKR?! I was not expecting the tree to start eating everything! I had an inkling predators would jump out of the water, but that tree startled me. ^^;; It's pretty horrific to see all those corpses entwined in its roots. It's a wonder Hana didn't smell the death and carrion in the air...

Hah, maybe. XD I love it how Tamura-sensei always starts off a chapter light, and then stuff goes down... @_@

[curemiprefer]

You are right, yeah, they are different forests. What caught me was a creepy vibe just from Hana stepping into another forest, for some reason. I wonder why she didn't smell death either now that you mention it.

[orquidea_negra1]

Thank you so much.

[pandaranda]

You're welcome. ^^

Thanks!!!

Thanks you guys so much for the scanlating one of the best manga out there! And thanks for this chapter!

Re: Thanks!!!

[pandaranda]

Yeah! I'm glad you agree it's one of the best! :)

Re: Thanks!!!

[curemiprefer]

7 Seeds is the best. I haven't found another manga that comes close. Probably has to do with me growing up in the woods though.

Thanks!

[(Anonymous)]

Thanks for bringing this awesome manga to those of us who can't get it anywhere else! I really appreciate it! Keep rocking

Re: Thanks!

[pandaranda]

You're welcome! :D That's what all of this is for, to spread the 7 Seeds love to the world. ;)

Owaahh what a terrifying tree! That poor horse! Anyways, thank you for another wonderful chapter. The artwork in this chapter was as gorgeous as always! And as scary as that tree was, that double spread was simply amazing. Haha but I feel your excitement Pandaranda! TEAM SPRING! It's been WAY too long!! I'm so glad Hana won't be alone anymore :3 ashdgfjsdfsd

Oh yes! And happy birthday bee! XD As awkward as it is to receive birthday wishes from someone you've never met, I wish you all the best for every year to come! :3

[pandaranda]

Yeah, I much as I hated doing that double spread, the spread itself is gorgeous! I stared at it for some time after finishing, all the little details!!! Gosh, imagine how long that would've taken to do! XD

Whee, I'm glad! *high-5s* And yeah, it's like everyone has forgotten them already because it's been that long! ^^;; Eeee, I just remember the whole way through Summer Solstice AND Minor Heat, I was wondering when we would finally see all the members of Spring again. xD

[kiggy007]

Thank you!

[luvsanime02]

I'm glad I'm not the only one who was seriously amazed by that tree. The hell?! I never expected that the first time I saw this chapter, you know? The crocodile, yes, especially since we already knew they still existed, but a freakin' tree?! That was a shock, yeah.

And OMG, Fujiko-chan!!! XD I was so excited to see her (and the other person, but I won't spoil it for others) again :D It feels like it's been forever, and then you said it's been 15 volumes, and that is forever, lol.

I also have to agree again with Dragonator, the timeline is killing me DX It's either been much longer than we originally assumed, and everything was somehow preserved, or it's been much shorter in time that we assumed. I really hope that they come across some people eventually who have accurate records about how long it's been.

[pandaranda]

Haha, that tree is something else. XD No wonder it's so massive, all that nutrients it gets from unsuspecting watering hole frequenters. On nom nom... XD

Seriously, too long! People who were following the series in Japan would've had to wait like 4-5 years!! @_@ That's so freaking long! xD

I'm wondering about that...whether we'll actually get to meet new characters. I'm never adverse to new characters. ^_^ I've sort of grown fond of manga/series with massive casts of characters. And omgsh, I just realised that we're catching up to the Chinese scanlations! XD I didn't know they were on up to ch 115?? I assumed they were keeping up with the Japanese releases. :3

[luvsanime02]

Nom nom nom, indeed, lmao XD

!! That's way too long to wait, omg! Those poor people...

I'd love to meet some new characters too :D Somehow, I think Tamura-sensei could pull it off and make us love her new characters as well.

Really? I know a site that has Chinese scanlations of chapters 116 & 120 (which is only 2 behind the Japanese releases, I believe, according to the site I read detailed summaries off of) as well, so you're not quite there yet ;D

[pandaranda]

Oh I know about 120, I saw that on a site it was weird. xD Why did they miss out 117-119?? :O I also know that the actual magazine is up to 122 now. X3 Ah, I wish I could read 122! I read 121 and it was so tense! :OOO Things are definitely getting exciting.

[luvsanime02]

It was really weird, wasn't it? I don't know why they skipped those chapters, but I hope they go back and fill them in sometime.

Well, I could give you the link to the site that has detailed summaries of the chapters if you want? It has chapter 122, and it's in Japanese.

[pandaranda]

Haha yeah, I know of that site. XD I don't like looking at spoilers though, unless it's the actual Japanese chapters, like I read 120 and 121 when I saw the Japanese scans up in Baidu. :3

I do use Nosu's site occasionally to see where chapters start and end, since the volumes aren't always as clear. XD And just recently I found out that that Tamura-sensei added extra pages into ch 114! I was really confused when I looked at the Chinese scans to see where the magazine scans ended for ch 114, and then I checked Nosu's summaries and there were like 5-6 pages of HanaxFujikoxChisa talk that just doesn't appear in the magazine scans (because her summaries didn't mention them at all). ^^;; How interesting! I'll have to watch out for that once we catch up to the mag scans. :3

[luvsanime02]

~Reads every spoiler she can get her hands on.~ X3 I can't seem to help myself.

Oh, I know~ I read that too, and was like :O :O :O It was exciting, lol XD

it's late, but...

you don't know me but i hope you had a grand birthday, and thanks so much for all your great work!

OH WOW THE VENUS FLYTREE. i love it. though "fly" isn't really applicable, honestly the size of that thing, whoa poor victims, though. especially the horse mom and the crocodile, i live crocodiles. (´；д；`)

about the timeline, i decided to just not think about it too much lol. ┐(๑￣∀￣)┌ some things are waaay too preserved for it to be a million years, but on the other hand, such massive evolutionary leaps... well drastic mutations occur at radioactive/etc sites, so we can hypothesize that animals and plants had to adapt fast and furious just to cope with all the disasters going on topside. and that human contaminants helped exacerbate some cases. ahhhh

the double page was AWESOME! oh man i'd go home crying if i had to do that, the editing was brilliant. and the art was gorgeous ugh i love the watering hoooole~ mutant sharktooth plants and all.

but anyway. FUJIKO-CHAN! ゜.*:。.ヽ（★≧∇≦★）ノ。.:*.゜ MY SPRING BABIES ARE BACK, OH JOYOUS, GLORIOUS DAY!

Re: it's late, but...

[pandaranda]

Ahhh, sorry for the late reply Jas!! I was really busy when I read this and then I totally forgot about replying you! Forgive meee! D:

Awww, I'm glad there was someone out there who cares for the poor crocodiles! ^^;; Ah, but that tree is amazing, isn't it?? XD I actually saw a tree that looked exactly like it today, just a miniature version, and one that doesn't sit on top of water. xD But everything else reminded me of the venus flytree! Gosh, you an Natsu should form a 7 Seeds fauna/flora naming club! Hehe. XD

Yeah, I think there's quite a bit of suspension of disbelief in 7 Seeds, you just hafta accept the crazy science. XDD It is science fiction after all! XP

Haha, I think Dragon was crying a little bit inside when he saw what he's up against! He adamantly believes he has no artistic talent whatsoever, but I have to beg to differ! XD But yes, Tamura-sensei is such a great artist!!! She makes her world just so magical. XD

YEAH YEAH!! READ THE NEXT CHAPTER! :DDDD *high-five for Spring baby lovers*! ^___^v
