Okay, we're going to be doing a new manga series over at Ala Atra and we would like your opinion of which one we should do. Here are the ones you can select from.
Holy Crystal Albatross
http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=6789
Genre: Action, Adventure, Fantasy, Shounen
Description
One day, junior high-schooler Yuuki helps a girl from another class, a weird girl known throughout the school as the "Trash Girl." Because of this selfless act, Yuuki's life undergoes a dramatic change!
Kashimashi - Girl Meets Girl
http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=1634
Genre: Comedy Drama Gender Bender Harem Romance School Life Sci-fi Yuri
Description
From Seven Seas:
Being a girl is harder than it looks...
For Hazumu, this couldn't be more true, because just the other day, she...was a he.
Shunned by the girl of his dreams, Hazumu loses himself in the mountains and is promptly squashed by an oncoming space ship. The alien inside, feeling guilty, rebuilds Hazumu's body...but as the wrong gender!
Now Hazumu must learn how to be the girl his parents always wanted while dealing with the trials and tribulations of being caught in a love triangle between two girls--his childhood friend, Tomari, and Yasuna, the girl who rejected him but is now strangely attracted to him/her!
Omamori Himari
http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=7333
Genre: action, ecchi, romance, shounen, supernatural
Description
Seven years ago, Amakawa Yuuto's parents died leaving him living alone without a single relative. Ever since then, his childhood friend, Kuzaki Rinko, has woken him up, cooked for him and generally taken care of him. The only thing he has left in memory of his family is a mysterious charm; a red ball given to him by his grandparents as a good luck charm (an omamori).
On the day of his 16th birthday, the charm mysteriously disappears, and into Yuuto's life walks Himari: a cat spirit-samurai girl and demon hunter who swears to protect Yuuto. There is only one small problem. Yuuto has a severe allergic reaction to cats!
Uwasa no Midori-kun
http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=4086
Genre: Comedy Drama Gender Bender Romance Shoujo Smut Sports
Description
Yamate Midori is a 15 year-old girl and is very much a tomboy. One day Midori meets a boy called Hino Tsukasa, who came to the island she lives on for a holiday. He teaches her to play soccer and she falls in love with the sport. Midori is inspired by Tsukasa and continues to play soccer in hopes that they would meet again someday. When they do meet again Tsukasa does something unforgivable. Determined to defeat Tsukasa on the soccer field Midori enrolls in an all boy high school.
Contains a short story of 2 chapters called Shounen x Cinderella in the 8th and 9th Volumes:
Sakuragi Azuma has a secret that no one should ever know about: he's actually Momo Kasuka, an up and coming female model! While shooting a new drama, he meets another arising newcomer named Yui Hazuki, and things are going to get heated!

I find it more fruitful to to a new series, so I'd vote for Holy Crystal Albatross... plus you'd get some fans of The World God Only Knows, which is, I'm sure, why it's on the list.
That said, is this appropriate for MU? It seems like all of these 'what should I do?' posts should be kept to group forums or MangaHelpers or something.

Holy Crystal Albatross because The World God Only Knows is one of my favorites.

I think it's okay for MU because they're going to be updating a new series soon right?

If only Holy Crystal Albatross had romance in it... but hey starting a new series might give us more motivation and the art seems good from some of the raw pages I've seen.
Holy shi-... 4 votes for each one lol.

Holy Crystal Albatross seems the most interesting. I mean I loved the Kashimashi anime when I saw it and the manga's probably ten times better but it's pretty much been completely scanslated already. The other two don't have much appeal at all.

Holy Crystal Albatross seems interesting, and since it's made by the same mangaka of TWGOK, this is one I wouldn't mind reading.

I definitely don't care about Kashimashi or Uwasa no Midori, since I don't read yuri or sports or smut. Albatross and Omamori Himari both seem like they have a lot of potential. However, the latter has pantyshots on the cover (no thank you), so my vote goes to Holy Crystal Albatross. Sounds really intriguing, so, I look forward to reading it. ^ _ ^

Not trying to "claim" projects or anything, but wouldn't it be a waste of time to do Omamori Himari if Manga-Heaven is already doing it? As a staff member there, I know they haven't abandoned it.

Lol, I'm sorry if it seemed like i was "claiming" the project but I wasnt, I simply hate wasting time on something and if we can help each other out to make the process go a smoothly then y not try? I don't own the manga so I have no rights to it. It was a simple suggestion, If they don't want to then we can drop it, It wouldnt be a bother.

Let's ignore the poll and the first post. Firstly we've gotten a couple of more translators so we've already decided to do:
Negima!? Neo
and
