    Statement 03/27/08

    Hello everyone! Sorry, this is not an update. xP

    We were astounded by the amount of people who commented on Beauty Pop in the chatbox, so to clear things up once and for all, we're releasing this statement.

    All chapters of Beauty Pop are CORRECT.

    Chapter 35 is linked up correctly; check the credits, if you don't believe us. We're guessing that most of you haven't come to this site for a while so you've missed the statements in our earlier updates, so here's the story: Some unofficial releases --"chapters 31-34"--were accidently leaked early. Containing this incidence was somewhat trying, so we have avoided talking about the circumstances directly. The truth is that certain hosting sites refused to take down the false releases despite our pleads; thus, the unofficial chapters-in-progress were exposed to a lot of people. However, those chapters were still undergoing final touches; most importantly, they were misnumbered--hence the chapter number confusion. Everything has been set straight now with the chapters. Chapter 35 is chapter 35.

    We urge everyone to re-download the correct chapters from chapters 31-35! If you're one of the people who have discovered that "chapter 34" is the same as chapter 35, then you're probably missing chapter 31. ^^

    Thanks to everyone for all of their wonderful support! And a special thanks to those who helped clarify things for others in the chatbox. Really--all you have to do is scroll through the chatbox for your answer sometimes. ^^ That said, we hope you enjoy the releases! And if you'd like to help us release faster, drop us an email please! We are in need of Japanese Translators, and Editors in particular!

    ~July, Hairdryers, StarStorm

    Update 03/24/08

    Greetings! Happy late Easter to those of you who celebrate it! ^^ We've got quite a selection for you guys.

    Releases:
    Beauty Pop (Stage 2) - chapter 35
    Crimson Hero - chapter 30
    Honey Hunt - chapter 4 Joint with Aerandria Scans
    Skip Beat - chapter 80
    Yamamoto Zenjirou to Moushimasu - chapter 3 Joint with Divine Sanctuary

    Please respect Aerandria's and Divine Sanctuary's release policy as well as our own if you wish to host! Check our FAQ if you have any questions. Sorry that we're missing a couple of mirrors right now because my internet is ridiculously slow and uploading is taking forever >< but we will have mirrors up by tomorrow. ><

    Also, we'd like to address some of the comments that have been popping up in our chatbox: I'm not really sure where you guys are hearing that we're finished with Beauty Pop...because it isn't true. Technically, Beauty Pop moved into Beauty Pop Stage 2 starting with volume 7, so that's why M-U lists "Beauty Pop" as complete. However, Enchantment Scans is still continuing scanlation of Beauty Pop, including Stage 2, to its end with volume 10. So no, we have not dropped it, and yes, of course we are still scanlating Beauty Pop. ^^ Please look forward to it.

    We are currently in desperate need of editors! We have a lot of projects to catch up on, and new ones in the pocket, so if you want to help us release more, please please please apply! >o<

    Update 03/05/08

    Hey everyone! We have for you a mini-release to start off March. ^^

    Releases:
    Beauty Pop (Stage 2) - chapters 33-34
    Honey Hunt - chapter 4 Joint with Aerandria Scans

    We're leaving up all the downloads from the last release a little longer since a week hasn't passed yet; they will be taken down later. Please remember to respect Aerandria's release policy as well as our own if you wish to host! Refer to our FAQ if you have any questions.

    Enjoy the release!

    Update 02/29/08

    We couldn't resist releasing on the day of the leap year--it only comes around every four years, after all ^^ I think you guys will be happy with the selections we have for you today:

    Releases:
    Beauty Pop (Stage 2) - chapters 31-32
    Crimson Hero - chapter 29
    Shinshi Doumei Cross - chapters 20-21 Joint with Esthetique
    Skip Beat - chapters 77-79
    Yamamoto Zenjirou to Moushimasu - chapter 2 Joint with Divine Sanctuary

    Actually, Shinshi Doumei Cross was officially released a couple days ago--Happy Anniversary to Esthetique! Some of you have probably been wondering about this joint; it will only cover volume 5 of Shinshi Doumei Cross. For all purposes, Enchantment Scans has dropped this project, and will likely not continue scanlation of this project after the completion of the joint. Worry not--another scanlation group has continued it with good quality. =]

    We again would like to remind readers to get these versions of chapter 31-32 of Beauty Pop. Those who re-download them will see why we were so insistent that you get rid of the previous false releases. You are missing out if you choose not to do so!

    Please remember to respect our release policy as well as the release policies of our joint partners. Consult our FAQ first if you have any questions!

    Enjoy!

    ~July, Hairdryers, StarStorm


    Edit: The link for Yamamoto ch2 has been fixed, so please re-download it. For some reason, some pages were lost while the file was uploaded to sendspace...Sorry for the inconvenience!

    Update 02/14/08

    HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!!


    Releases:
    Honey Hunt - chapter 3 Joint with Aerandria
    Shiritsu! Bijinzaka Joshi Koukou - chapter 3 [NEW]

    How could we not release anything on Valentine's Day and break all your hearts ;P. So on this lovely, special occasion, we present you not only Honey Hunt chapter 3 but a new project! We are picking it off from where Shoujo Crusade left off, so definitely check it out after you read chapter 1 and 2!

    Also, we would like to clarify any confusion regarding Beauty Pop. We are aware of the fact that "Beauty Pop" end at volume 6 and "Beauty Pop Stage 2" is a new saga, beginning at Chapter 1. However, for our convince as well as to avoid confusion with those who may not be as wholly informed, we decided to continue naming it in sequence after chapter 29.

    Enjoy your Valentine's Day and remember Enchantment Scans is urgently looking for JAPANESE TRANSLATORS. We have many exciting new projects that need Japanese translators! If you can read or know someone who can read Japanese, please do not hesitate to apply! No experience is needed =).

    Update 01/31/08

    Yup =), another release this month, introducing two NEW projects, joint with Covenant of Darkness.

    Beauty Pop - chapter 30
    Smash 1 - chapter 1 [NEW] Joint with Covenant of Darkness
    Tsuiteru Kanojo - scroll 0 [NEW] Joint with Covenant of Darkness

    Please remember Tsuiteru Kanojo contains mature content, though not so much in this chapter as it will later on. So it is only recommended to older audiences!!

    Please respect Covert of Darkness' release policy as well as ours, and please do not distribute our files without permission!

    Beauty Pop chapter 30 has been released, but 31-34 has not been OFFICIALLY released yet; there are a couple things that need to be fixed. So please wait for it to be released on this site before spreading the files.

    Remember, when in doubt read our FAQ! Enjoy!

    ~July, Hairdryers, StarStorm


    Recruitment: Enchantment Scans is looking for Japanese Translators, Chinese Translators, and Experienced Editors. Please contact us if you are interested!

    EDIT: We are no longer looking for Chinese translators, this position is temporarily closed. However, we are in need of Japanese translators, for all the new, upcoming series we want to bring out ;).

    Notice 01/28/08

    This is not a new update. The credit page for Honey Hunt chapter 2 is incorrect; a version 2 has been replaced with the correct credit page. To all sites that hosts our manga, please re-download/distribute the Honey Hunt chapter 2 with the CORRECT credit page.

    Thank you and sorry for any inconvenience.

    ~July, Hairdryers, StarStorm

    Update 01/22/08

    Haha, you didn't think we were done releasing for the month, did you? xD Well, we weren't done there! Today, we have for you:

    Aozora Pop - chapter 1 [NEW]
    Beauty Pop - chapters 28-29
    Honey Hunt - chapter 2 Joint with Aerandria
    Skip Beat - chapters 75-76

    We're proud to finally introduce a new project that we've had our eyes on for a while, so do go and check out Aozora Pop. Though I must say that the amount of "model" mangas we scanlate is highly amusing.

    Please respect Aerandria's release policy as well as ours, and please do not distribute our files without permission!

    We decided to keep downloads for Beauty Pop on the site with this release this time, but we very nearly decided otherwise. What alarmed us most about the false release incident was not that the files went out early (it was an unfortunate slight that we did not know such a thing could happen) but rather the discovery of several sites that not only host without our knowledge or consent, but that they clearly don't care when ambiguous chapters are uploaded. Chapters 31-34 of Beauty Pop have not been released (see Update 01/20/08) and we ask that you please stop spreading those files around and wait for the correct release.

    Don't forget that our handy FAQ is there for your use ^^ Happy reading!

    Update 01/20/08

    Wow, a new year already!

    Today, we have a release with our Joint Partner, Shoujo Crusade! There won't be any Online Reading available until after 3 days, but downloads will be hosted on the site for a while in addition to in the forum.

    Tsuki no Shippo - chapters 29-31

    Also, we would like to address the issue with the false Beauty Pop report, regarding chapters 31-34. We did not release these chapters. To clear up any confusion, MangaUpdates listed a false release the other day (through no fault of their own; furthermore, that situation has been remedied). Enchantment Scans would never release a series out of order like that. In addition, if the release is not updated on the site or in the forum, then it is not true

    In a scanlation group, it is expected that chapters will be finished editing in advance of the release, and it just so happened that those chapters were finished ahead of their previous chapters. It is not our intention to "withold" those chapters at all--speaking of which, those chapters have mistakes that need to be fixed as well, so they are not ready for the final release anyway.

    If you currently have those chapters, we urge you to re-download the correct releases when they come out. Also, please do not distribute those files--you will not being doing fans a service by sharing those flawed chapters.

    If you reported that release to M-U with the intention keeping the rest of the community up-to-date-- rest assured that if we update, we will be the first to report the relase to M-U. We would also like to remind uploaders to please ask us for permission before distributing our files--the reason being that we have a release policy that we would like you to observe, and that some of our projects are licensed and we do not want those files going everywhere without our knowledge or consent.

    That said, enjoy the release!

    Update 12/18/07

    Hey everyone!

    How about that! Two releases this month! xD Although, please give us a little breathing space in between releases, guys! xP Some of you start asking for new chapters so quickly...

    For Shounen Chuudoku, please observe Aerandria's release policy as well as our own. Also, please read the F.A.Q. first before asking basic questions.

    Update 12/05/07

    Hello everyone!

    It's been a while since our last release. As you all know, our former Head Editor, Yuki, is stepping down. In her place, the new Head Editors, July, Hairdryers, and StarStorm, will continue to support the team so as to continue to bring you releases!

    Anti-Chocolate - story 2a
    Beauty Pop - chapter 26
    Honey Hunt - chapter 1 Joint with Aerandria Scans
    Skip Beat - chapters 66-67

    We are finally able to introduce our new joint project, with the wonderful Aerandria, for Honey Hunt, which was one of the upcoming projects that you guys voted on. Please observe Aerandria's release policy as well as our own. Also, please read the F.A.Q. before you ask questions in the chatbox as the most common ones are most assuredly already answered.

    We hope to continue Enchantment Scans' legacy! =]

    ~July, Hairdryers, StarStorm


    Edit: We've corrected the mistake with the two pages in Honey Hunt and released a version 2. The new download link is up. Sorry for the mixup. ><

    Announcement 11/30/07

    Right well anyways, EScans isn't dead or inactive now, if you're wondering. We're just releasing slower than usual because we're undergoing some changes. I'll be retiring as head editor, and the new head editors that I've chosen is StarStorm and Hairdryers ^^ Also, we have a vice head editor, July. So if you're wondering, that's why we haven't been releasing lately.


    You can still email any questions, requests, or even a position application for EScans (ie. Editor, Translator, Proofreader) to ephemeral.essence@gmail.com. Instead of having it as my personal EScans email, I've changed it to the head editors' email ^^. With that being said, I'll be fully retired now, and I'm sure the new head editors will do a magnificent job in maintaining this scanlation group, and will do probably a better job than me ^^.

    ~yuki.

    Update 10/31/07

    Happy Halloween everyone! I hope you all indulged on plenty of sugary treats! To make the holiday even sweeter, here's another release for your enjoyment!

    Skip Beat - chapters 61-65

    A reminder to all guests to please read the F.A.Q. before invading our cbox with questions. Also, W-Juliet has officially been moved to Dropped.

    Enjoy the release!

    Recruitment: Enchantment Scans is looking for Japanese Translators, Chinese Translators, and Experienced Editors. Please contact us if you are interested!

    Update 09/21/07

    SURPRISE!! Haha usually we release monthly, but for September, it was originally planned that we'll release 33 chapters at once... but unfortunately we nearly but didn't release that much >_< So, this is a mid month release to release the chapters that we were going to, but didn't release on September 3 ^^ :

    Beauty Pop - chapter 25
    Missile Happy chapters 17-20 - [END]
    Shounen Chuudoku - story 1 v2 - Joint with Aerandria Scans
    W-Juliet II - chapters 3 & 4 - [VOLUME 1 END]

    Unfortunately, since we would like to take on more new projects, but we have a lot of projects at hand already, we're forced to give up some of our projects. Since it's hard to find raws on this particular project, and we would like to bring you more releases from other projects, and new projects as well, chapter 4 of W-Juliet II, which finishes up volume 1, will be our last release in that project. The project will be moved to the Dropped section by our next release.

    Recruitment: Enchantment Scans is looking for Japanese Translators and Experienced Editors. Please contact us if you are interested!

    Announcement 09/09/07

    Hey!! I just wanted to say that Missile Happy volumes 1-3 and volume 4 chapter 13 are uploaded, and are available to download in our Project Releases section in the forum. So if you've wanted to read the series, but don't have the prior chapters, you can find them there, along with our release of chapter 14 and up.

    Also, I just want to announce that I've opened up two new positions for the EScans group, to accomodate those who would like to help and edit, but unable to, because they're not ready to do the full editing job. Now, you can apply to be a cleaner, a person who cleans and level the scans, or a typesetter, a person who types the translations into cleaned scans. You may apply to those two jobs in the forum, just go to Recruitment then leave a post in the Editors recruitment thread, and specify that you're interested in applying for Editor: Cleaner, or Editor: Typesetter. If you apply, but don't specify then I would just send you the normal editing test which expects you to do editing and cleaning.

    Update 09/03/07

    Hello everyone! Hope you had a good summer! Although this was a rather long period of time between releases for us, the staff has been working hard all summer to bring you more goodies!

    I had nearly resigned myself to a new-layoutless fate after sorting through what must have been hundreds of layouts, and still not having found the perfect one. And then, lo and behold, I stumbled upon Elysium Designs, and I have never fallen in love faster. Needless to say, I'm quite estastic about this new layout, and I hope you guys like it, too. ^^ I also took this chance to revamp the site, so it should be better than ever!

    Please note that with our improved handy-dandy F.A.Q., questions that are already answered in there will be ignored in the cbox. Please make sure you consult it out for answers first!

    Anyway, I'm sure you're all anxious to get to the good part. So here it is, our long-awaited new releases:

    Anti-Chocolate story 1 [NEW]
    Beauty Pop - chapter 23(v2)-24 - ch23(v2) includes the missing page
    Crimson Hero - chapters 26-27
    Missile Happy chapters 14-16 & volume 4 extra - [NEW]
    Shinshi Doumei Cross - chapter 33
    Shounen Chuudoku - story 1 - [NEW] - Joint with Aerandria Scans
    Skip Beat chapters 50-60
    Tsuki no Shippo - chapters 24-28 - Joint with Shoujo Crusade
    W-Juliet II - chapter 2
    Yamamoto Zenjirou to Moushimasu - chapter 1 - [NEW] - Joint with Divine Sanctuary Scanlations

    You can always find links for download and online reading in the Forum, but certain rules apply before a registered member can reach the links. Download links will be available on the site for one week, and then everything will be taken off and only strictly available in the Forum.

    Lastly, please respect our release policy, as well as Aerandria, Divine Sanctuary, and Shoujo Crusade's. For Shounen Chuudoku, there is a one week grace period. For Yamamoto Zenjirou to Moushimasu, there is a three days detention time. Also, for Tsuki no Shippo, please remember that the downloads will be password-protected in the Forum for three days. Afterwards, the password will be taken off, but until then, you can request the password in the Forum.
