Mods purged the board? Well I wasn't done with these Death Note threads.Previous >>3911331https://archived.moe/cm/thread/3911331/#q3911331
Why is the captcha broken? ;_;
At least those 4 maxed threads that kept getting bumped are gone now.
Mods didn't purge cm they purged like 12 different boards >>3913404And all the images lost to broken archives, hoorah. I'd take 10 bumplocked threads being kept alive over all the shit we lost in other threads. The sperging over the guy doing that is and has always been retarded.
>>3913440I'm not saying it was a fair trade, I'm looking for a silver lining. And it was incredibly annoying. The threads aren't supposed to last forever. Save the images you want and contribute what you can, or stfu.
glad I went through the old threads before they got nuked
does anyone have other pics by this artist? I think they are ziguadu1 on twitter but privated
>>3913440>arguing with a backseat wannabe jannydesu she’s too retarded to see reason like most ritual bakers hereimagine crying about someone bumping a thread on 4chan-nel/dot/orginization lmao

I've been trying to archive art by an old DN artist who stopped posting in 2014 called Juon Yu. They were mostly known for posting millions of pictures of a heavily OC-ified Beyond Birthday, but they posted some cute Ls as well. Here's the folder I've compiled, if anyone wants it. I know a lot of these have been heavily compressed or scaled from their original size, so I'm always looking for higher quality versions, especially of the L pics.https://www.mediafire.com/file/jxr5tlfl8pnxpk5/Juon+Yu.zip/file
>>3919897Thank you so much anon I was going to download all that myself but I guess I procrastinated long enough for someone else to do it. And you even sorted it by character. <3
>>3920043I'm glad you appreciate it ^^I've plugged it in a previous thread, but this text document is a goldmine for fanart of old fandoms. The archived DN folders helped me fill in a lot of holes in this collection. I pray that mediafire never goes under or purges old links.https://www.mediafire.com/file/ybob8dy5mymueeo
>>3920044Mediafire really worries me, every time I see a link to it I'm slightly amazed it still exists, it feels so vulnerableAnother anon a few threads ago compiled this folder of Puku Okuyama's DN art, which had some stuff I'd never seen before, and I remember doing a deep right-click-save-as through her site back in the day https://www.mediafire.com/file/qdcae176qfdx0bq/Okuyama_Puku_DN_art.rar/fileThe area I understand least is doujins, I have no idea where the links are, let alone if they're still active (I'm picturing a lot of dead Rapidshare links hidden in dead locked LJ groups)Some will be on the usual reader sites but they've probably been run through the jpeg machine at least once :(
>>3920111Ah, yeah haha. That was me. I like putting these collections together. It makes me feel like a fanart archeologist.A lot more work has been done to preserve doujins than fanart. You've got you your obvious MyReadingManga and e-hentai. But also the tumblr blogs https://www.tumblr.com/dndoujins and https://dndoushinji.tumblr.com/ . That said, who knows when tumblr's gonna go under, so best save everything now while you still can. That's what I'm doing.Have a doujin that was missing from my Puku Okuyama Folder. It's not translated, but the art is pretty.https://www.mediafire.com/file/cinrvg5l8g5givg/[ai+lovelove+(OKUYAMA+Puku)]+Intromania+(Death+Note).zip/file
I have just finished rewatching Death Note. I know this is weird to say but it really is romantic how the last thoughts in Light's mind before he dies is of L. I really do think the end of the anime excuses most of its fuck ups. I just wish they gave Near a bit more personality and used Mello more. They put a lot of stock into Mello's design yet used him for only a few scenes. I know that in the manga that he and near both have more time to develop themselves but that just doesn't translate over.Despite my problems with it I still love Death Note as much as I did when I was a kid seeing L for the first time and thinking he was the coolest ever(still is desu).Also I wanted to make this post a couple of days ago when I downloaded it but I never got around it. Shout to >>3919897 for posting those old L art pics. I think they have that late aughts soul to them. Its very endearing.
Want to suck his toes
>>3920877>That was me. I like putting these collections together. It makes me feel like a fanart archeologist.Hah, small world. You're doing god's work, really. It's curious to step back and consider how completely ephemeral fanart is - nothing is the flavour of the month forever and eventually the artists move on, delete their old accounts, etc. Which is probably the only way things can be, it's not like there's anything to keep people drawing new Death Note art almost 20 years later in the absence of new official material. But it's a little sad to think about how disposable fanart is. I was captivated by these pictures back when they were new (and still am), and Death Note content was once inescapable, and now that whole infrastructure has completely vanished.And thanks for the doujin! This is new to me. Do we have any translators lurking here who want to do a new Matt x Mello release in AD 2024? I can still remember how to re-draw and typeset, I think
Senpai, I think this Chinese fujo has the doujin I've been searching for for the last year. Does anyone know the magic words I can say to get them to sent me the rest of it?https://ryuuzakidessert.lofter.com/post/4b3c6eb2_2ba6f893f
>>3923294I did find the magic words, if anyone else is invested in this. I posted the doujin in the /y/ thread. It's kind of disappointing, desu. Not nearly as spicy as the preview image would lead you to believe. But now I have the satisfaction of knowing, that's just as good.
>>3920877Anon, you have utterly triggered my mental illness. I have spent the last several weeks collecting dn doujinshi, and I cannot stop. I'm at about 250 right now, and I keep finding more. Some are duplicates in different languages/scan qualities, but there are so many of them. I'm not entirely sure what to do with them once I finally finish.I'm not ready to share them yet, so I'll post some Spook-tober related art, because it's been quiet in here.
It's so appropriate that L's birthday is the candy holiday

I have nearly 400 DN doujinshi now, and I'm not entirely sure what to do with them, so I think I'll organize them into little collections by circle and post them here. When possible, I've tried to collect both a RAW and an English translation. I've collected translations in third languages (mostly Chinese) when a RAW or English wasn't available, or when the image quality was better. Starting alphabetically at the top with 8POCHI, drawn by Nakacoco. This artist has a really cute and delicate style, and seems to favor Mello, although there is some LawLight in here as well. All of these doujins are SFW, but some are ecchi. Be warned that Mello is paired a few times with an ugly mob character. There are six doujinshi in this folder. Four of them were collaborations with other doujinka. "Monster" in particular seems to have been mostly drawn by the collaborator, with only the cover and insert art done by Nakacoco. Unfortunately, only one of these doujins was translated into English, and the largest one was translated into Chinese. I'm not completely confident that "Return Graphic Books" was compiled correctly. It seems to be a anthology reprint of some of their earlier short doujins, but the blog I found it on split it up between several posts, and I'm not confident the order is correct. The info on the doujinshi database also indicates that it might be missing about 40 pages. I'd love to get my hands on a physical copy.The titles:Katzen DuettArmoniMonsterNami-Nori Pirate (波のりパイレーツ)200924649Return Graphic BooksInfo on the doujinka: https://doujinshi.wiki/author/3597The link: https://www.mediafire.com/file/695w1km3yyiugv6/[8POCHI+(Nakacoco)].zip/file
A few sample pages
I'll post the next one tomorrow, or in a few days.
If the anon who likes Puku Okuyama is still around, you'll like this batch. I found SIXTEEN doujinshi published by her under the circle name Ai lovelove (愛lovelove). This is easily the biggest collection I found for a single doujinka.Several of these have been translated into English, and one of them, "croquis", is very much R-18. The bad news is that some of these are in extremely small resolution. The really small ones were found on tumblr, and they seem to have posted them in a way that limited the horizontal resolution to 500px. This isn't too bad for single pages in portrait orientation, but many of these doujinshi were upload as two-page spreads, and they are /tiny/. Most of these doujins are Matt/Mello, but there is a surprising amount of Mello/Near as well. I think the standout for me is "Co. P.", which features both ships, but is very Near-heavy. It hasn't been translated, but the images do great storytelling on their own. And then one of these, Yoi Kono Mello Nuri E-chan, appears to be a coloring and actively book, which is kind of fun!Intromania, which I posted separately earlier, is clearly a collaboration with several other artists including H-eichi, who is another fantastic doujinka I will post sometime later. I couldn't find any info on Monochrome, which is another pulled from the Chinese blog. Considering how short it is, I think it might be a part of a larger doujinshi. Maybe an anthology.Titles included:BirthMarkCo.

I really love this page.
I'll post one with more LawLight next.
Alright, up next is probably my personal favorite doujinka, Sabi (さび) under the circle name Balgus REC. I don't know how many of these are deep cuts, since many of them have been translated to English, and a few can be found on e-hentai and and myreadingmanga. But I was able to compile a few more from other sources.These are mostly L/Light, with a few gen books in the mix. I have recommended "Taikutsu" before, and it's definitely the steamiest one in here. But "Pieta" (mistakenly titled "God Eye" on myreadingmanga) is probably their magnum opus. It's 130 pages of a post-canon story where Light has been reborn as a Shinigami, and finds that L is still alive and has lost his memories. It's beautiful and heart wrenching, and if you haven't read it you should. I was also ready to write "Angelic Reeds" off for being long, Near-centric, and gen. But once I gave it a chance I was surprised to find myself tearing up at the end.I couldn't find any information on the last doujinshi in here. It was posted in very bad quality without its cover and translated into Korean. Luckily, I just so happened to have a clean sample page from it in my collection. It could be part of a larger anthology.Titles included:Angelic Reeds [English]Dead Smile [Japanese]Dead Stock [Japanese&Chinese]God Eye [Japanese]L [English]Pieta [English]Star Light [English]Taikutsu (たいくつ) [Japanese&English]Doujinka info: https://doujinshi.wiki/circle/463Download link: https://www.mediafire.com/file/i9fg9nkc4ntmur3/%255BBalgus_REC_%2528Sabi%2529%255D.zip/file
>>3926706>If the anon who likes Puku Okuyama is still around, you'll like this batch.I am, and I certainly did!! Thank you so much for putting these together, it's a real public service.Random thoughts:>>3926415>Nakacoco. This artist has a really cute and delicate styleYeah, her art is lovely, very expressive. The colour picture you posted there is the one I would've posted as well. I love any art of these two where their situation is a little chaotic. I'm pleasantly surprised by the amount of colour pages in her doujins generally -- that must've jacked up the cost of printing.>>3926706>The really small ones were found on tumblr, and they seem to have posted them in a way that limited the horizontal resolution to 500px.From memory (it seems to be a different system now), when you did a right-click-save-as on Tumblr, the default for a lot of images was 500px wide. You had to edit the url to make them 1280px wide, which was the maximum. That might explain what we're seeing here.>H-eichi, who is another fantastic doujinka I will post sometime later.Waiting warmly. I'm not a big doujin collector but I'm very happy to have a physical copy of the iconic Pink Sniper.>croquisThis one's fantastic, despite the scan quality. And really surprisingly porny for this artist.>MonochromeYeah, this feels like it has pages missing. The page numbers (the ones actually on the pages, not the filenames) seem to start at 4 (the Matt page, although the bottom is cut off) and page 10 doesn't feel like an ending. All the pages have three dots at the top, I note. Maybe the person who created the file originally was looking at this on some kind of image viewer, on Weibo or whatever, and only saved the Matt and Mello pages. Perhaps the others are stuff with Near and L, or something. Mysterious.>Yoi Kono Mello Nuri E-chanI love the cover! It's really vivid. I'd have used 11.jpg as the picture for this post but I don't want it to get deleted lol
I've found a site which lists Monochrome as 20 pages, so there's definitely more of it.There's also a Kanpen (see pic), which isn't listed here https://doujinshi.wiki/circle/21243?page=1 but is presumably the previous instalment to Kanpen2, which is
>>3927120Hi anon. I'm glad you are enjoying the doujinshi! I don't want these to become lost media, so I hope many people download them.>You had to edit the url to make them 1280px wide, which was the maximum.That works for URLs that have image widths written at the end. I use a browser extension that does it for me automatically. But this tumblr account posted their images in text posts, which converted them in a different way and the URLs cannot be modified, so far as I can tell.However, I've made a discovery that makes a lot of the work I've been doing a little irrelevant. There's huge collection of DN doujins at https://yaoi-sei.com/home.html , and this website looks like it's being actively maintained. Many of the downscaled doujins I have posted are available here in their original sizes, Including Armoni, Nami-Nori Pirate, BirthMark, Domino, croquis, Natsu no Hizashi ni Yoku Niteru, P.S., Hide and Seek, Pieta, God Eye, L and Angelic Reeds.I'll probably keep posting collections here, mostly to keep activity in these threads and because it helps me sort them and motivates me to read them. But not until I've made sure I've replaced all of my downscaled copies with the good ones and collected anything I am missing.>Maybe the person who created the file originally was looking at this on some kind of image viewerThis doujin was originally posted as one long image, and it looked like it was a giant screenshot taken from a webmanga viewer. I went through and individually cropped out each page to make it easier to read. Probably the worst quality you could ask for, but I'd still rather have it than not.>There's also a Kanpen (see pic), which isn't listed hereYeah, doujinshi.wiki isn't the greatest database. It was set up as a temporary solution built off of the captured data of doujinshi.org when it went down. It can't be edited, and there is a lot of incorrect and missing data. But there's also a lot of good info, so it's better than nothing.
>>3927297>There's huge collection of DN doujins at https://yaoi-sei.com/home.htmlNice! This passed me by completely. Great find. Very charming website as well, the site design is vividly resonant of the Livejournal era. As is the slightly unhinged "about" page, although I do agree with the basic point the author is making.>I'll probably keep posting collections here, mostly to keep activity in these threads and because it helps me sort them and motivates me to read them. But not until I've made sure I've replaced all of my downscaled copies with the good ones and collected anything I am missing.Much respect. You're going about this in a very serious, organised way, which is fantastic. And I'm certainly downloading everything, so there's at least one other backup.>Probably the worst quality you could ask for, but I'd still rather have it than not.Yeah, for sure. Great we now have a full version with the missing pages as well.Mbit (on Yaoi-sei) is my recommendation from what I've seen so far. Diverse collection of artists (some well known, some less so) and there's some lovely colour pages. Moririn at 19-25 does some charming faces, and the very free, sketchy style of Tome's chapter (29-37) is delightful, probably my favourite. I love when artists' imagine these guys' domestic situation, especially when it's drawn as messy and disorganised. And "Lucky Stripe -- it's Juicy" is hilarious. Very Mad Men.
It's L's birthday today!
