Welcome to Gaia! ::

The following are comic strips written and drawn by Aoi (the only name I know him by..), from Japan! You can view his web site by clicking on the link banner below, but on to more info about these comic strips. He's been doing these for quite some time now, and many of you out there may have seen some of them or even visit the page often yourself, however, they're only posted in Japanese, so if you don't know Japanese, you just have to try to guess from the images what's going on. Well, no more! I emailed Aoi a long time ago asking permission to edit the strips into English and repost them, and was given permission to do so. Translations were done by Ice-Wolf, and image editing by myself. As far as I know, this is the first time these are available in English anywhere, so have fun smile A few more notes before moving on to the strips tho...

Since Japanese comics are read from right to left, some of them were flipped horizontally to be read properly in English. Not really a noticable thing, but just a translation note. Also I decided to skip over some entirely because they just wouldn't work well in English without some extra translation notes. (I may do those later and just add translation notes on an extra html page or something...) Also, for now I've just selected most of the Sonic related strips. There are also many NiGHTS and other Sonic Team related comics on Aoi's web site. I may post translations of those in the future. I'm also nowhere near caught up with what he has up on his site right now, so more strips WILL be added to this page as I find the time to do them.

I've been trying to translate a bunch of the un-translated ones, with limited success.
