The Old Gringo discovered this manga series a couple of years ago and it inspired him to actually learn a little (very little) Japanese to decipher the goings on within. I was surprised to find no seemed to know about it in this Ecchi-intensive place. The first sixteen chapters are available in translation from Tamascans (Tama-Chan Scans) but the series has 16 volumes and 174 collected chapters out now.

If I can figure out how, I'll post nine or so pages from Chapter 164 to give you an idea of what it's like and how good my shot at translating it is. It will go in the Ecchi section of the gallery. I do have raw scans of most of the series, and all sixteen volumes.

If you look it up in Wikipedia, there is an article. I wrote most of it.

This is mostly a high school comedy-romance, and the fact that VIZ is publishing Ichigo 100% next month gives me hope for an authorized translation one of these days. Until then, is anyone interested in this? Be warned: In spite of this being a school that actually trains prostitutes, there is very little explicit sex and less fan service than in Negima!

PS: The Japanese title is 都立水商! Paste it in your search engine if you have Japanese fonts loaded (and I'm sure you do.)
