Kadokawa's new site, Comic Walker, which opened today in Japan is offering this.

News here: http://neweva.blog103.fc2.com/blog-entry-2935.html

Direct link to the page: http://comic-walker.com/contents/detail/KDCW_CW01000003010000_68/

No idea if they're redoing the full series in this style or just volume 1 for fun. Looks like it closes after page 20-something.

I like the very spare colouring style - for me it's worthwhile without changing the atmosphere. Of course, the first few pages were in colour already, so not a huge amount of work has been shown yet.

Ditto. It launches a lightbox thing and says OK and then closes.

Halp?

Anyone able to screenshot/save that business and put it up on something reliable like imgur?

Doesn't work in the browser but works in the Android version (I installed their software and it downloaded the chapter). It's really slow but it works.

It tells me (in Japanese) that the server "is updating". I've tried a different browser, so it's not that it's dropped a cookie (I looked anyway) to prevent revisiting.

You can change the settings to english on the top right of the page, though there is much less content in english.

Yesterday, for some reason, I wasn't able to open any comic using the "read the latest" button (the red rectangle with a yellow triangle in it), but I could open them by clicking the buttons that correspond to each chapter, they are a bit below the big red button, they are the small blue rectangles and the newest chapter is identified with a "new" sign. Today, somehow, the "read the latest" button is working for me.

So i guess i'm the only person here who wasn't too hot on the colouring.

I don't know, for me it feels like it seriously lacked... something. It feels like the intensity and composition of the colors wasn't handled too well or something, and it gave it a somewhat plain feel to it. Maybe it's just me though.

Was Sadamoto the one who did the colouring, or someone else?

The first few pages like this are actually included in Sadamoto's Der Mond.

The first few pages (the last one being the one with three images of Sachiel nearing the "camera") are actually a part of the standard edition of the manga (at least its Polish edition).

That's how they were published originally. In North America, among some other places, those pages were printed in black and white as a cost saving measure. The original issue-based release had them in color, however the first and second edition printed them in black and white. The 3-in-1 omnibus format did include the colored pages from stage 1 in full color, however they did not include the colored pages from stage 8.
