Since I get to read them all picking out my current favorite titles that we're scanlating can be really tough, but here goes...

1. Eensy Weensy Monster - If you haven't given it a shot yet, try it out! It's a short two volume series (we'll be finished with it in a couple of weeks) that is a hilariously cute take on your typical school life shoujo first love story.

While usually a quick read, the characters are very appealing and it does a great job of poking fun at a lot of the cliches, while also wholeheartedly embracing them.

It's by the mangaka of His and Her Circumstances as well.

I highly recommend it!

2. Harlem Beat wa Yoake Made - While the mangaka (Wild Rock, If Dogs Could Walk, Last Client) may be known for her Yaoi works, don't let that scare you away from giving this manga a chance. It's a wickedly funny shounen/shoujo manga about the runaway prince of hell (who is avoiding marrying a woman he doesn't love) and his adventures moonlighting as a normal human school boy along with his cat, while being hunted down by a trio of monsters (zombie, werewolf and vampire).

3. Soul Eater - While we have since dropped it (it was only a temporary project to help close the gap while other groups worked on it slowly and steadily) this is an awesome Shounen manga about the technicians and human weapons that go a school for stopping bad souls specifically created by the head Shinigami. It's hilarious, fast paced, action packed and has an excellent multi-layer story. Part of what I love about it is that the characters have many-layered relationships with each other and that even the most minor details in early chapters can come back and have consequences in the future.

So anyone else that wants to share their top favorites A Willful Muse projects and why people should give them a try please feel free to do so.

So hard to choose favorites. I like the majority of the manga that we're doing, and I read most of them. Though I must admit, that like Perch, my favorite is Eensy Weensy Monster.

Hmm I would have to say Cat Street. I relate to it the most and it's always been one of the few mangas I eagerly await releases for.

I'm not up to date with most of the AWM projects, but i'm planning on reading up on all of them in the next few weeks. <3 (ah..where to start!)

ummm.... it was love monster then desire climax then reni but for now cat street

Cat Street!

I registered just to say thank you so much for translating all of Cat Street, and doing it so quickly. I really appreciate it.

Dear - I read several series by this group but Dear is by far my favorite.
I was so happy when I saw someone had picked this series up again. I've loved this series for a long time and had almost given up on seeing more of it. It's a very cute manga and has a whimsical sense of humor, especially the main character Chiruha.

I've got a long list, but I'll start with Baby Love cos I just finished reading the chapters out so far and really hope you can continue with this series.

Also Billion Girl, Cat Street (really loved that - finished it in a day), Desire Climax, Love Monster, Love Celeb, and Youth Gone Wild.

You're one of the better scanlation groups. Thanks. Hope Perch gets better soon.
