Mobile Suit Gundam Ixtab volume 1 (compilation volume release)

Well Ixtab chapters have been uploaded to the blog, but none of them for volume 1 because their uploading predated this blog getting used, so here you go. The entire first volume of Ixtab! There's nothing new or exclusive to the first compiled volume aside from a forward from the mangaka and an advertisement for Gundam Ace, but volume 1 is here anyways if you're interested. This thing has been long out of print in Japan, so enjoy our version. We didn't clean up every page because we just weren't in the habit of doing that when we started this series, and only later started when we decided to strive for better quality with an autist handling that side of things. But we took the time to fix some errors and such in our previous releases of these first five chapters. When we get a break in our schedule we'll upload volume 2 with the exclusive bonus content from there.

I also want to mention, the scans for this series are awful and not ideal (since we pulled them from the internet). No More Cheese Dip didn't join until after all of these chapters had been done, and he only went back and touched up a few pages. If anybody would like to supply us with HD scans to improve this volume release so much, we would happily transfer them over. However the series has been out of print since the early 2010s and the quality of our translated version will probably held back by the scan quality unless we get better scans or Bandai does an ebook remaster, and we're not sure how likely that last option is considering Iida is not alive to push for a such a thing to happen.


The year is Universal Century 0079. Zeon has just declared war on the Federation, which is bad news for the crew of the Federation Musai class Toutatis.  The crew begin a dangerous fight for survival where they must contend with Zeon's new mobile suits and discover the greatest massacre in human history. In the midst of it all Lt. Nada Chinomi sees one of the pilots, a girl resembling the ancient Mayan death goddess Ixtab, and a vicious rivalry forms with a burning hatred.
