couldn't find raws without that weird grey tinge, am willing to redo later if better ones are found

cum sandwhich.

weird reason for a nuclear winter, huh?

and i'm pretty sure birds aren't supposed to take baths.

Birds LOVE baths. They usually just flap around in it, rather than soak.

Why wasting time on waiting for better raws if you can easily make them yourself.
The secret to better RAWs is leveling. With leveling you can turn images like this https://e-hentai.org/s/ac2fe5f40f/1317895-2 into images like that https://e-hentai.org/s/2979a828ee/1364239-2.

You find a leveling tutorial here: http://www.ruinevil.com/rawr/editguide/1.html#3

This technique can also be used to do some simple color corections on washed out and greyish cover images and make the colors more bright.
For the cover I recommend set black to 66 Gamma (the slider between black and white spot) to 1.8 and leave white at 255.

Nice translation!

i do have a version of this that i'm touching up to make the overall saturation levels feel a little bit more balanced (though i'm still troubled by how grainy it seems at times), but i feel guilty about rapid-fire uploading these over and over again, so i'll probably finish it up today, sleep on it, then decide whether i should put it out or not tomorrow after a final check. -_-"

I love the works of this artist, beautifully drawn girls with lust filled faces. Thanks for the translations!

Curves is also good, I actually prefer them over levels because they afford more control on the end result. Their only drawback (depending on the program/version you're using) is that they cannot be applied in a non-destructive way as an adjustment layer, whereas levels can. At least that's true until Photoshop CS6, then after Adobe went all cloudy I switched to another editing program.

Wait, why would Reimu be angry that they nearly blew up the Moriya Shrine? That would simplify her life enormously.

I love how this author makes his stories: both the scenes and the dialogue are really smooth and don't feel forced. I really like the last part with both Koishi and Satori too.
