I'm procrastinating from doing work, so I thought I might as well be semi-productive and give a runthrough of what is on www.mediafire.com/konami as of writing this. I will note that these are my opinions, and if you disagree with the grades or notes I give a work, good for you!
Celtrance collection: A-
Almost all amazing. Great art and decent story telling (as far as doujinshi go). The only thing I don't like about what Celtrance has to offer is the short rape scene at the beginning of Ao Geki Murasaki Mamoru (without this, it would have scored an A+). Ao Sumire tells the story of how the girls come into the relation, and AGMM is a later story where they seem to not be concerned who knows of their relationship. All of these are adult!
Classmate Shock collection: B
Pretty solid. A three part series which is just a bit quirky at times. The first half and second half of these are to be viewed as separate instances (I think) so us who worked on it felt the side-stories unimportant enough to not scanlate the last one... Unlike Celtrance, the relationship is in full swing in the beginning and it deals more with how to go about carrying out their relationship. Can get close to adult!
Eunos collection: A
Fantastic. Good art, solid character portrails, comedic, pretty much the beacon to which others should emulate. The main KonaKaga story is quite long and tells a story of the progression. Unlike Classmate Shock — where the reluctance toward the relationship was through social stigma of lesbianism — the slow progression is driven by Kagami's tsundere personality. The other stories are side events that tell of events happening after they are already together. Again, unlike CC, everyone seems to be quite aware of their relationship, which is a nice thing to see. Can get close to adult!
Lucky Point collection: A-
Nice, basic story. Lucky Point starts out with the two main characters seemingly unaware of their mutual infatuation. Pretty early on into the second story (Summer) they seem to realize their feelings and end up with some hawt secks as a result. Autumn is about telling their friends about their relationship, and Winter is simply a story after everyone's okay with their relationship (Kagami seems to speak quite openly to Tsukasa about the hawt secks she and Konata have). Can get close to adult!
Tonaride Anthology: N/A
Only one thing translated, so I will reserve judgment until later. We do have a Eunos story to look forward to at this point, though.
100% D Drive Kagamin: A-
Well executed. Comedic, good art, a job well done. Konata realizes her feelings toward Kagami, and is left with some abnormal behaviors when a novel circumstance which threatens her feelings arises. Completely safe.
Cicada Drizzle: A-
Best of both world. Somewhat touching in the beginning, hawt secks at the end. This doujinshi holds a certain place in my heart as it is the first KonaKaga story I saw translated; even more so, I saw it the steps that went into the translating of it (as I've mentioned in a previous post). Adult!
Fuyu no Konata: B
Touching. This is one of those stories that makes you wonder why anyone would like Konata. I mean, if this was the way she regularly acted, I don't think I would want to make any type of lasting commitment with her... Anyway, a good story nonetheless. Completely safe.
Hoshi Koi: B-
As someone who likes to have story in my smut, the lack of one in this is a turn off to me. Art's decent (though a bit too loli-ish), though, and I enjoy the "combat edition" underwear, so I would give it a small recomendation. Adult!
Kagami no Ashi no Ura: D+
Can't say I enjoy this one. The art is decent at best, I don't enjoy piss in my porn, and Konata seemed to practically be raping Kagami. Overall, I'd say skip this one. Adult!
KonaxKaga Matome: B+
Screw canon. A nice story with an interesting art style. I really like the idea of turning a canonical situation that could be used against a KonaKaga pairing into a misunderstanding of Kagami's true feelings. Completely safe.
Lonely Kagamin~: C
I am no longer providing a source to download this. It's an okay story that I wouldn't highly recommend, but the main reason being the author's personal take down of their own work. It appears to me they do not wish it to be distributed, so I will abide by that decision of theirs. I'm sure simply having the name is enough for the resourceful to find this on their own. Adult!
Love Like Lucky: B-
Light shoujo ai. Konata pisses Kagami off, Kagami sulks for a bit, they end up making up. Simple and sweet, but not overly memorable. Completely safe.
Niwakaame: B-
If you're reading these in order, you may think LLL was pretty subtexty, this is even more so. A bit comedic at times, attempts to be touching almost all the time, and has a nice art style. This is another non-memorable piece that's simply a nice augmentation to one's shoujo ai and/or KonaKaga collection. Completely safe.
Okayu: KonaKaga C-; Yutaka x Minami B
This one comes in three parts. Part 1 and 3 are based around Konata and Kagami, part 2 is based around Yutaka and Minami. Part 2 I like quite a lot — a comedy through misunderstandings is great — but part 1 is ahoge rape and part 3 is body-transfer rape, so I can't say I enjoyed it too terribly. Safe for a while and one adult picture at the end!
Shino☆Hara: C
Meh. This comes out of a longer doujinshi, but the other parts aren't relevant to this blog. Lower rating comes from lack of story and pee ruins porn. Adult!
The Hiiragis: A-
Cute. That's pretty much the way to sum this up. Good art, short and simple, science babies; pretty much all you could want in something of this length. Completely safe.
Twin Coronet: A-
Very nice. Story is pretty good, Konata comes on to Kagami, but Kagami things her 'love' and Konata's 'love' are different so flees, and ends pretty close to some hawt secks. I like the story, and the art is pretty good, but the :3 smile of Konata's seems to have been glued on in this; her facial expression never changes! Still highly recommended. Gets close to adult!

KonaKaga "Beyond" & Folders
Our dearest Winterbraid over at Wings of Yuri have released a new KonaKaga scanlation: Beyond. This is a smaller story in a collection called Tonaride Anthology; the untranslated version of said anthology can be found in the untranslated folder at www.mediafire.com/konami, translated stories will be added to the Tonaride Anthology folder on that site.
I have also made three more folders Two are for longer stories that should be kept together: Classmate Shock and Lucky Point. The other is of one of my favorite artists: Celtrance. I've included Celtrance's two translated doujin I have as well as a collection of misc. images.

KonaKaga Webcomic
The Webcomic
A while ago over at raki-suta.com/img, someone brought to our attention there was this webcomic going on that was relevant to our interests. I've been helping and collecting it through its translation, and I feel pretty good about what's come from it. The original comic is hosted here, but the link at the top is the translated version, including a txt file of some translation notes I've added along the way.
I'd like to thank the author for making this, but I don't know Japanese; however, if someone does happen to know Japanese enough to figure out how to send a quick "thanks" and a link to our English translation, I think that would be nice for the author. I can't help figuring out how to send something to the author; the most I can think of is to write a message on the comment section at the bottom... If you do send something over, leave a message in the comment section here so others know it's been done. This keeps the author from receiving multiple of the same things — unless you wish to thank the author personally as well, which is always appreciated — but also lets others know if there hasn't been a "thank you" extended yet.

www.mediafire.com/konami
Here's a description of what www.mediafire.com/konami is: I created this collection because I had worked on and collected a significant enough amount of Konata x Kagami doujin that I felt justified in creating a small collection of translated KonaKaga works. As time went on, I started to add more and more, and found that it may be beneficial to share untranslated works as well, causing me to created a subfolder.
For those who actually followed this collection, you may notice a recent addition of a "Eunos" folder in which I put the translated works by Eunos, a regular author of the KonaKaga genre. I will probably begin to do this for other series as well as they begin to amass, but oneshots will always remain in the general section. Remember that there is more than one page, so don't miss out from lack of observation.
"NSFW" at the end of a title stands for "not safe for work" and denotes pieces which contain nudity. Borderline pieces (I'm thinking of Twin Coronet at the moment) contain no actual nudity, but come very close; however, I do not include them in the NSFW category. When I add things, I will post a short blog about it and will note if it is close to NSFW, but the ones that stand currently you will just have to take the risk (there aren't too many).
The two "Konami misc" are just single pictures or very short stories collected into a single folder. As you can see, the SFW folder may need to be split into two soon while the NSFW one is still quite tiny. If someone can help me rectify this, that would be pretty helpful. When I update those folders, I'll make a blog post as well as change the dates mentioned as to when it's been uploaded.
The "Webcomic" is a comic on the web that is updated time-to-time and is translated over at raki-suta.com/img. There are several arcs, and it appears one has just ended, so expect an update to that soon.
I have been asked before to feature other Lucky Star doujin in this collection, but I have been reluctant to do so. As implied by the name, this is a place for KonaKaga goodness, and I feel it would be in breach of that name to include others. On the other hand, now that I have a general blog that is not dedicated solely to KonaKaga, I will be including all forms of yuri Lucky Star here on this blog.
