  16. Dot702 Says:

    page 8 on chap 22 its broken

    • kaor1 Says:

      Hey, we’re really sorry for the trouble. But I just visited Mangafox and ch. 22 was already uploaded with page 8 attached perfectly fine. Does that mean the problem’s solved? *really hope so*

      Please contact me again if page 8 is still broken. I’ll try to fix it as soon as possible. We’re sorry again for the trouble :(

  17. Cocacola Says:

    yeah page 8 on chap 22 broken,can u reupload it?

  18. Voltecha Says:

    Thank you for all the quick and high quality releases.

    Also I believe page 8 is still broken and that the Mangafox ch 22 just skips the broken page (page 9 becomes page 8) and as a result only has a total of 18 instead of 19 pages. I could be wrong on this though, please correct me if I’m wrong.

    • kaor1 Says:

      No, you’re completely right. I just checked it this morning on Mangafox, and it turns out that I’m the one who was wrong. I’m so sorry for this trouble. I’ll try to fix this as soon as possible and re-upload the missing page. Thanks for telling me though :D

  19. Voltecha Says:

    Oh no need to be sorry at all and I wasn’t troubled at all 8) I didn’t notice till I read it the second time. But thx for the awesome releases and the quick responses I’m going to keep my eyes on you guys.

  20. m7md Says:

    I haven’t read this yet but it seems like a great manga.
    I would also like too add that I’m glad that you guys were the one to pick it up :)
    I like to ask, do you plan on translating the whole manga ( sorry if this is posted somewhere on the site but I searched and couldn’t find it)

    • kaor1 Says:

      For now, yes, we’re interested in translating the whole manga, and we really need the readers’ support for it, otherwise, there’s no way we can finish it all, since this manga is pretty long (23 volumes).

  21. xfoz_st Says:

    Hey, it’s just me or anyone else couldn’t DL chap 24?
    I’ve been tryin’ since yesterday..

    • Cocacola Says:

      yup, i couldn’t DL chap 24 to, so i read it on mangafox :)

    • kaor1 Says:

      We’re sorry for the trouble, but sometimes, the hosting link will go under maintenance and cause you to not be able to download anything. Please try again after a while, it should work fine again.

  22. Kakar Says:

    Just thought I would let you guys know that pg8 in c22 is corrupt (I downloaded the file today from mediafire) and c24 link is still not working but hopefully it will start working by tomorrow. Thanks for all your hard work

  23. youli Says:

    I just started reading this manga and really enjoying it. You guys are awesome how you release everyday! I hope you guys never lose your interest in this title since that would be a shame :S

    thanks for all the hard work^^

  24. krish19oo Says:

    wonderfully fast releases thank you so much

  25. La Jazz Says:

    What a fantastic manga~! I LOVE IT! Well, truly superbly suspenseful!! :D

    It’s beautifully narrated of how Hayao had literally fought for his beloved horse, Sylphid’s life against his pragmatic dad. Some sporadic moments of trust and faith, despair and discouragement were so touchingly heart-breaking to the point of eliciting readers’ reactions in first 2 volumes.
    From next volumes on, it’s impressively progessive with strong climax.

    You have done so marvelously in every aspect of scanlation~!
    Yes, every single thing is really impeccably well-done, even with several minor mistakes!

    Keep it UP, everyone in your team, including you, kaor1, too~!!

    • kaor1 Says:

      Hey, La Jazz.
      Thank you so much for your comment and support, we really appreciate it :D

      If you don’t mind, I’d like to ask you what kind of minor mistakes we had done, so we could fix it if possible. That way, we could bring you a better quality manga. Thanks anyway :D

  26. sandro Says:

    I love this manga much..much..much…
    And i heard this manga has a sequel, story of the sequel is about the child of sylphid.
    Am i right? if yes, would you to translate and upload the sequel?

    arigatou gozaimasu… :)

    • kaor1 Says:

      Hey ^_^

      Yes, that’s true. Sylphid has a sequel titled “Aoi Shinwa Mars”. The main character is actually not a direct child of Sylphid, but probably his great great grandchildren. I don’t have the RAW for this title for now, so I don’t know if I’d be able to do it. But we’ll see :D
      Besides, I want to finish Sylphid first, since we still have a long way to go ^^
      Thank you for your love on this series. A support from fans never hurt ;)

  27. Hendra Says:

    Aoi Shinwa Mars is a story abaout maximum’s grandchildren, not sylphid’s.

    • kaor1 Says:

      Yes, that’s what I meant :D
      But still, Sylphid’s grandchildren are still there, although they’ve become the antagonist in this story.

  28. La Jazz Says:

    Oh, no… Dear kaor1,

    In actual fact, these mistakes were merely just minuscule grammatical errors. No worries, I asssure you.

    It’s just that I’m very particular about enjoying this error-free manga story joyfully, so I cleaned up and edited those. Pardon me, I can’t recall which words… :S
    I could only recall… some words: of win the race.
    The correct one: of win-ning the race.
    Oh, yeah. In chapter 31, about the left and right foot, it should be that the right bumped into the fence and the left was stabbed.

    Just do your work wonderfully with your good partner, Cloudcake16~!
    Believe in yourself positively! :)

    I’ll try to let ya know once I come across anything of some serious mistake. Though I strongly doubt so. (wink)

    I’m positively sure that many, many fans LOVE your work with wholehearted delight.

    By the way, I thank you for that new c32 with appreciation.
    What an amazing speed of supply~! Ok, be your very HAPPY best! :)

    • cloudcake16 Says:

      Hey there!

      Sorry, it sounds like I’ve been a bit careless ^^;;

      I’ll try to pay more attention from now on!

      ^^v

    • kaor1 Says:

      Thanks a lot for your comment ^_^

      Cloudcake16 is our only proofreader, and she works really really fast. So I can understand if there’s any minor mistake. Still thank you for the comment. We’ll do our best to improve our quality :D

      • La Jazz Says:

        Kaor1, Cloudcake16,

        That c33 is awesome! No errors in that flawless chapter. *V*

        You two did a GREAT JOB!! :D

        Take good care.

  29. Maximillian Says:

    I’ve just started reading this series, but when i extract chapters 22 ,it’s contain corrupt pages, Is there someone has a page that does not corrupt?
    and thanks to kaor1 for released this amazing manga

  30. FantaOrange Says:

    does anyone have page 8 for chapter 22?
    i’ve been download many time from mediafire n it’s still corrupted :( :(

  31. krish19oo Says:

    please do not stop translating. I asboulelty love the story and thank very much for the wonderfull work and fastest releases

    • kaor1 Says:

      We’ll do our very best to complete it. Please keep supporting us, since that’s one of the reasons why we keep translating ^_^

  32. Dewo Says:

    Wow100x !! great thanks.. you are the hero. I feel so depressed in years for the sylphid mangas. i don’t read the last 2 volumes ! it sold in every bookstores in my city about 18 years ago. How frustrating. Why there’s no sylphid mangas on the net ?
    My childhood friend said sylphid dies in the end of story after the world championship, is it true ?. And why there’s no sylphid anime ? Is it not good enough to be anime ?
    i got the info from sandro a week ago when he just tried to find with hopeless.. and after 2 years waited.. we (he) found it from your web:D
    well my tears always run out when i read your first volume
    please finish your great job :D
    there is a sequel (MARS) waits you he.. :D

    • kaor1 Says:

      Well, we don’t really want to tell anything about the ending of Sylphid, because it’ll be a surprise ^^
      If you insist to know what happens at the end, you can email me directly for that ;)

  33. La Jazz Says:

    Hello~! Kaor1, Cloudcake16,

    The chapter 34 is nicely well-done! You both have done a fantastic job!

    I’m rather unsure of whether I should let ya know or not. Still, it’s better to inform you about it, even if it’s just one small error.

    Ok, here’s c34p2: By the way, Kikuchi-sensei were looking for you.

    Everything else is OK! :D

    Have a nice weekend, then!

    • kaor1 Says:

      Thank you for letting us know ^_^
      Your information is always helpful. Sorry for the minor mistake, but I hope you still enjoy reading it ^^

      • La Jazz Says:

        Dear Kaor1,

        Of course, I truly enjoy reading your fantastic work, as always!
        It’s nothing so serious with your scanlations and your faithful partner, Cloudcake16’s proofreading diligence. ;)

        I wish you and Cloudcake16 all the best in your love of doing all that with the wonderfully impressive manga: Wind Sylphid!!

  34. La Jazz Says:

    Warmest greetings!

    Kaor1, Cloudcake16,

    Just to let ya know that these 2 chapters: 35 & 36 are wonderfully flawless! None one error in both chapters. Simply great!

    Keep it up! You have done exceedingly well. :)

    Happy 1st Anniversary to ya!

  35. La Jazz Says:

    Wow… thank you for those 2 latest chapters!

    Btw, there’re only 2 mistakes in c37.
    1. p2 – we have make it into the top 5 in the satsuki shou race!
    2. p6 – “a super fast horse”. ill he show us his amazing speed again just like he did in asahi stakes?

    c38 is no problem! :)

  36. La Jazz Says:

    c39 is flawlessly awesome~! Its climax is beautifully splendid!

    It’s so exciting to see Morikawa and Sylphid win this difficult race extraordinarily with incredible fighting spirit!! :D

    Thank you.

  37. fauzi Says:

    nice..can’t wait to see next chapter…

  38. La Jazz Says:

    Wow… c40 is marvellously great!

    I’m very happy for Tanimura to have his dearest mother by his side to support him with encouragement. He seriously needs all the support, in order to nail his 200th victory in his difficult career of a jockey that’s had always done his best.

    Keep it UP, Kaor1 & Cloudcake16~!! :D

  39. La Jazz Says:

    Greetings, Kaor1 & Couldcake16~!

    c41 is fabulously GREAT, as usual!

    I really hope to see Tanimura win his 200th victory over his tough opponent, the genius Jun Yuki with his incredible faith and trust in Sylphid. He truly deserved it, what with his passionate hardwork & patient hope of attaining success like a steady tortoise. I really hope so!

    Otherwise, I’d feel very sad. So I’m rather worried about whatifs. :(

    Thank you for doing your wonderful best! :D

  40. La Jazz Says:

    Warm greetings~!

    Kaor1, Cloudcake16,

    c42 is way very, very, very FANTASTIC!! XD
    You had done a great job!

    It’s so deliciously suspenseful! I fervently HOPE that Tanimura shall win the toughest race of his life and then claim his rightful 200th victory! I’m truly moved by his earnest dedication to his passion of horse-racing and filial piety to his dear mother. So I sincerely hope to see him winning over the natural genius, Yuki. :)

    Thank you.

  41. xfoz_st Says:

    I was surprised when Tanimura fell off, I thought it was over..
    But he’s still tryin to ride in that position
    Although it’s almost impossible to beat Jun & Maximum, as long there’s a chance, they’ll never give up.
    Dash forward White Lightning!

    Thanks for your hardwork on this scanlation as usual!

  42. Ayama Says:

    Thanks for the chapters. I love it. :)

  43. La Jazz Says:

    Whoa!!! It’s something extraordinarily special~!

    Though my eyes is rather tearful at Tanimura and Sylphid not getting the FIRST position, I at least am much gladful that they literally cross the FINISH line BEFORE Jun Yuuki and Maximum did. *V*
    Perhaps Tanimura and Sylphid won something unique? *hopeful puppy eyes*

    Thank you for such a beautifully translated c~! :)

  44. kaor1 Says:

    Yay! Glad to hear that ^^
    Thanks for the comment, as always!
