When In Doubt, Cross-dress!


Although it feels like it was yesterday since we last worked on Usotsuki Lily (in truth, it was 35 days ago), here we are at the start of volume 15 with chapter 92. This release comes with the added realization that Usolily just ended its serialization in Margaret on May 2nd, so the end is really starting to feel real. Volume 16 should contain the final chapters, and Boy's Lily's volume will most likely come out around the same time (which also seems to have just ended its serialization in The Margaret), so there is still a lot left to work on for the time being. As a note for chapter 92, there is something mentioned on the last page of the chapter about volume 1, which has to do with the last page of chapter 3.

And as a very special, and far too overdue release today, we are happy to present a short one-shot titled Usolily Out! that Ayumi Komura created in collaboration with Sakura Kenjou, author of Sold Out!. You may also remember Kenjou from drawing En on the bonus page of chapter 2. Anyway, Usolily Out! was released in a charity book to raise money for the 2011 Japanese earthquake and tsunami. Chronologically, the one-shot would have been released around the same time chapter 40 was serialized in Margaret.

Now, before you ask us why it took us over 2 and a half years to release this 8-page one-shot, the fact is that we did not have access to it until now. We had hoped that it would have been released as a bonus at the end of an Usolily volume, but now that it seems like that's never going to happen, we somehow managed to get a copy (although this was not easy, since it had been sold out of most retailers long ago). Suffice it to say, this is a very rare book, and the one-shots in it were not re-published anywhere else to our knowledge (or at least that was the case for Usolily Out!). So with that, please enjoy the releases as we continue working on Usolily volume 15.
