The Interlude chapter has been added to Zoids Generations! This is a short break between Chapter 7 and 8. It looks back on the history of Jin, Masakuni, and Seiki. It also serves as our first major introduction to Liger Red Hiou! So if you've been wondering what the deal is with this unusual liger, check it out!

 Another series, Zo-Zo-Zo-Zombie-Kun has recently received a new toy series! In celebration CoroCoro Online did a collaboration article. A survival guide for how to deal with Zombie Zoids! In this article, the zombie-Zoid dubbed ZZ, created from a Beast Liger, rampages throughout a base! Since this is just a fun little one-off we decided to go ahead and include a rough google translation of it over in the books section.

 The Art of HMM scored the highest illustrated book sales on Amazon Japan! Since our last update they've posted a few different images, including Gojulas the Ogre, Storm Sworder, and the Limited Cover. It looks like the Koto Direct limited cover will be the box art for the HMM Geno Saurer Raven Spec. while the default (publicly available) cover will be the Blade Liger AB Bang Spec. As a general reminder the book releases on September 17th for 3300 yen.

 Chapter 7 of Zoids Generations is up! There's a short secondary chapter in between Chapters 7 and 8 that we'll be covering next. This time around, Midori, Ken, and Jin must protect the group from an onslaught of Bio Zoids as Seki prays to the Sparkling Beast. In the process, Jin is confronted by an old foe, and we find out if the Rez Wolf can really surpass its former nemesis!

 Chapter 3 has been added to Zoids Wild EX-ZERO! This chapter introduces the Sniptera, and also a clear connection to the anime world of Zoids Wild Zero. This is interesting, as there was mention in an earlier interview that they would've liked to include Zoids like the Genospino without contradicting the lore of the show. I'm sure we can all also appreciate flying sort of cats!

 The next 3 chapters have been added for Official Fan Book 2! This concludes the story segment of the book, and what a conclusion it was! From here, work will be moving towards the Zoid profile sections, gathering info for the Zoids of the Empire and the Republic. Thanks to everyone who has been reading this book along with us!

 Dengeki Hobby Magazine 2005 April, July, September, and October issues have been added to the articles section! These issues include a lot of notable things. Customs on Gravity Saurer, Ultimate Seismo, Blade Liger BLOX, Rez Wolf, Reaper, and Souga. As well as concept art of Ultimate & Berserk Seismo, Murasame & Hayate Liger, Deadly Kong, Bamburian, and the Bio Zoids. Tons of stuff for you to check out!

 The ZOIDS ART OF HMM twitter has made a new post showing off examples of a couple of the HMM Zoids, Shield Liger and Geno Saurer. They've also announced the details of the book! It'll be released September 17th for 3,300 yen, and consist of 176 pages in B5 format. If you buy from Kotobukiya Direct the book will come with an exclusive cover.

 Zoids Wild 2 is releasing its second manga volume on June 26th! This manga has an excellent style, so I highly recommend picking it up. You can get a copy at Amazon Japan for 670 yen (about $6). Amazon JP requires a separate account from your US amazon account, but you can pay with your normal cards. Some chapter previews were posted over on twitter showing off the more recent chapter art, including the Zero Grizis.

 Imachorii, over on twitter posted some beautiful images of a couple of concepts from the Concept Art Books! Always nice seeing clean digital images of these!

 Ninjas, and scorpions, and mummies, oh my! Chapter 6 of Zoids Generations has been added, and it has some fairly dramatic scenes. I won't spoil to much. We only have 2 more chapters of the main story to go, but that's only half of the book. There's still customs and models yet to do!

 The twitter for HMMZ_Art has revealed their plans for this twitter account! It was created to advertise the upcoming art book, ZOIDS ART OF HMM 2006~2020, an amazing collection of box art, concept art, and story info, with over 80 pieces of package art from the HMM series. This book is being printed with high-saturation printing technology to maximize its beautiful artwork. Not only will it include the concept sketches seen in the instruction manuals and the art along the side of the box, but it'll also contain the battle stories that were written for each Zoid. Many of these stories have aspects unique to HMM. We're looking forward to hearing more about this project!

 3 more chapters have been added to Official Fan Book 2! In these chapters we meet the Geno Breaker and Death Stinger, and both Zoids prove to be a terrifying force. We only have 3 story chapters left in this book, including the epilogue, but they're shaping up to have some awesome doom and gloom.

 TT has posted their latest booklet, Operation Manual Z, for free online in consideration of customers being unable to go out! It was in this book that we got our first full look at the Zero Phantoth. It also shows off some nice custom examples, tiny concept art thumbnails, etc.

 Zoids Wild EX-ZERO has been given its own page over in the books section (last image in the stories category). It is also still linked through the HJM article. With this change, Chapter 2 has also been added! Please bare in mind that this uses automatic translation, so will have some mistakes. All scans are there, though, including story pages, advertisements, etc.

 I also wanted to ask for some opinions. The books section right now has every volume posted separately. Do you like this format, or would you rather each series only have a single image, leading to a main page, like what the Official Fan Books have? You can cast your vote through this Straw Poll.

 The Zoids Generations page has been updated with Chapter 5! In this chapter we make a quick pit stop to participate in the Sunlight Festival. Soon after, Midori leaves on a task to deliver a warning to Veauregard, the owner of a Zoid Ranch that's already under a lot of pressure. As always, this chapter is translated using google translate, so expect a number of errors. Thank you for your understanding!

 The Zoids Official Fan Book page has been with chapters 3 & 4 of Official Fan Book 2! These chapters are relatively short, but we'll be moving into the meat of the story soon. For now, the bulk of the Republic's forces have to make their way to Europa, before the real war begins! Please be aware that this page uses automatic translations, so may contain errors.

 The second chapter of Zoids Official Fan Book Volume 2 has been added! This chapter covers the first encounter between the Geno Saurer and the Blade Liger, and some insight into other Zoids that possess the Organoid System.

 Today we have finally started a translation of the Zoids Official Fan Book 2! You can read the introductory pages along with the first chapter. There's also a huge map of the Western Continent and a Liger Zero poster. We'll be actively working on the rest of the book and hope to have more soon. Please note that these pages use automatic translation, so may contain mistakes.

 Chapter 4 of Zoids Generations is now available! In this chapter we begin to hear some important questions, like why Bio Zoids are attacking and devouring other Zoids, and what Seki may know about the situation. We're also introduced to the gorgeous Empressa and her pilot, Sona, the princess of the country of Ya Han, who has arrived to investigate the sudden surge of Bio Zoids.

 As a general reminder, our Zoids Generations chapters use automatic translation, so contain a decent number of errors! They are provided as an easier way for readers to get the gist of what's happening in the story, until such a time that better translations become available. Thank you for your understanding!
