AK of Troy Founder/Owner of All
The owner of the site and the main translator. His main job is to push the other staff members around until they cringe in pain. Famous Last Words: Update tonight?? While he isn't holding Mike captive, and playing with his dog Chibi, AK can be found online. Feel free to msg him, but remember to start with ASL???

Gotenks243/Mike Founder/Bum
The super genius Mike has been with TW since the beginning. Procrastination is his best friend, but he gets things done eventually. An excellent translator, and proven Go champion, Mike can be found sitting with AK playing drunken Yu-Gi-Oh... or scrabble. His girlfriend wonders if that is his idea of living it up in California...

mr_ryo Webmaster/El esclavo
Ryo was the driving force behind just about everything on the website. From content updates to manga scanning and editing, he has been there to do the job no one else wants. He enjoys HnG, as well as pizza and longs walks on the beach. A bit of an enigma as of late, ryo is just about to start his first year of college. Huzzah!

Ookla The Mok Editor/The Overkill Master
The resident pickiest editor. For this reason he ended up coordinating most TW projects. The overlord of the editor team, he also owns a few souls. Contact him if you want to help at TW, but beware that he may forget to mail you back. Keep bugging him on IRC, and he will respond eventually. Do unicycles really help people pick up chicks Ookla?

Barabus Editor/Super Chyo-jin
Good old Barabus has been around for quite awhile... But he does pull his weight by editing Kinnikuman because no one else is crazy enough to do it. This resident TW Staffer needs to come out of the 80's... and though we may think sometimes think otherwise... one must admit defeatedly that Barabus Is Cool!

kbned Mercenary Editor
kbned sells his editing services to the highest bidder...or lowest bidder as the case may be, since everyone bids $0.00...ask him what other projects he edits for besides those at TW. Also manages to get himself "kickbanned" quite often.

Xaintrix Editor?
Xain hired Akemi who was alot of help, so we have him to thank for that... Whether or not he's good for anything else is yet to be seen, but he's still a cool guy. We'd rather he were more useful than cool though, we get enough of that from Barabus.

eK Editor/Misc. graphics dude
Edits manga when we can tear him away from making banners and fonts and whatever else he's offering to do other than edit manga. Best not to talk about him with music, it would feel more like a lecture than a conversation.
