Well folks, the end of volume one is upon us. I really hope you liked it and will be following volume two just as closely! The comic will stop being free by the end of the month, once Aquafadas launch the new digital version -- so keep a lookout for a more detailed update on the site.
Wishing y'all a most excellent year 2009 -- stay fresh !

Hey everyone,
It's almost the end of the first volume, guys. We've been working on this project for almost a year now, and a lot of stuff has happened... I hope you still love reading the Corbeaux brothers' adventures as much as I love telling them. I honestly can't wait until the comic gets launched at the Angoulême festival, and I hope most of you will still be following the story. I actually had a lot of really important stuff to tell you now, but right now I can't remember any of it because as usual, I'm late finishing this month's story! =D
Happy reading!

Hey everyone,
The digital book version of Eat It Fresh! that you saw last month will be launched during the 2009 Angoulême Comics festival. In the meantime, make the most of the current site while it's still free!
Hope those of you who celebrate Halloween had a grand ol' morbid time, and I'll see you next month for the next instalment of Karasu and Corneille's adventures!

Hey everyone,
Here's a video that talks a little bit about the future of EAT IT FRESH! I'll have more info for you as soon as it all gets set up.
Sadly, the clip is only in French...
See you later!

Not much in the way of news this month, just an announcement regarding signings.
I will be scribbling away the 27th and 28th September in Paris, France, during the Festiblog Webcomics Festival at the Court Saint-Emilion.
See you there!

Hello everyone !
This past month has been pretty rough for the Eat It Fresh! team. First of all, K has decided to cease collaborating with us as project manager. Web development and site hosting will now be taken care of by Studio Gamboo.
Secondly, I don’t know where you all live, but the heat in southern France is unbearable and finishing this chapter was a nightmare !! But at least it’s finally here.
Sometime very soon I’ll be announcing something of highest importance concerning Eat It Fresh! ; some of you won’t like it, some will. We’ll see.
All that being said, I hope you enjoy this new chapter, and remember – stay fresh !

The EAT IT FRESH! Team is currently overloaded, so for lack of time this month's news will be brief, but no less interesting:
- The brand spanking new 4th chapter is here, even more off-the-wall than ever.
- Paka, the rest of the Team and I have started working on a paper version of EAT IT FRESH! But the project is still pretty fuzzy.
- I'm also pleased to annonce that Paka wil be present at the Japan Expo (as well as yours truly). Check back soon at the website for more information (there's even a surprise for those who come to see us! n__n)
- A top-secret project related to EAT IT FRESH! is in the works. I can't tell you much about it right now, but if you keep checking the news regularly you might get a few bonus previews ;]
Right, now get out the popcorn and get ready, things are gonna get bloody!

I know what you're about to say: "What? But ... why?"
That's often the sort of reaction you get, or at least expect when a project gets shut down or "put on hold".
But wait! Rest assured that I am not referring to the EAT IT FRESH! project as a whole.
It's just that ... how can I put this ... we'll be "momentarily suspending" the japanese version.
For what reasons? A lack of readers, a lack of means, complications during translation that you wouldn't believe, etc.
We are really and truly sorry.
Nevertheless, dear readers, this doesn't mean you can't chow down right away on the French and English versions of this brand-new chapter.
As always, I wish you all a very hefty appétit.
Itadakimassssssssssssssssssssssu /o/`

I'll start this second chapter off with a "Thank you". Thanks to everyone who has supported us, helped us, to everyone who was there until the wee hours of the morning so that this manga might come true, just for you, 100% fresh and ready to be devoured.
This month heralds a few new arrivals, beginning with chapter 2, which I hope you'll enjoy just as much as the first, if not more so.
You'll also find an RSS feed in the Gadgets & Accessories section that lets you keep track of the site's updates, as well as each new instalment (which, you may recall, arrives on the first of every month).
In addition to all this, you'll all have noticed a new button in the menu on the left, which leads to none other than the Credits page, where you'll get to learn a little bit about the EAT IT FRESH! team.
I'd also like to apologize to our friends from the Land of the Rising Sun for not having the japanese translation ready on time. Unfortunately, our dear translator Yuuu is currently unavailable until further notice. But we promise to get the japanese version online as quickly as possible!
Now that all's been said...
Itadakimasu !

It all started one rainy January evening in a small Japanese restaurant, on Paris' own boulevard Sébastopol.
I was enjoying some delicious California Maki with Paka, chatting about this and that, when a brilliant idea suddenly popped out of my head: "Fay, fwat fiff fee fadan offwine ffanga?" After some swallowing it sounded more like this: "Hey, what if we made an online manga?"
We lost no time and began the search for a killer scenario with out-of-this-world characters. Once Paka had gently brushed aside my ideas of a zombie Santa Claus and other improbable characters, we decided on EAT IT FRESH!
Since that evening meal, things have happened very quickly. After two months of hard work, tears, nervous laughter and joy, we now bring you the first chapter of EAT IT FRESH!
Enjoy your meal!
K.
