Hi everyone!
I’ve made a few changes recently and would love your feedback.
I changed the fonts and the use of honorifics (-chan, -san, etc.).

A quick look at both versions:

Previous Version:
  • Fonts: [Old fonts]
  • Honorifics: -san, -chan, etc.

New Version:
  • Fonts: [The ones used in this chapter]
  • Honorifics: No -san, -chan but Miss, Mr, Young Lady or just instead of Hiroto-san just Hiroto.

Which style do you prefer? New or old? Your feedback really helps me improve!

Hm, quite the useful ability but not quite as ridiculous as the design made it appear. Like he said it can blowback as well since it almost seems like it literally depends on what would make a story more interesting. In this case it was bringing his ally back to fighting strength.

Now we get to wait to see what "that thing" is going to be again.

Keep the honorifics, most people reading this manga are too weebpilled to need that level of localization, so using miss or mr would actually end making the dialogue feel weirder

The honorifics don't really matter to me but I do like the new font. The letters are bigger so that makes it easier to read on my mobile phone.

On honorifics keep them they feel more natural than Mr, Miss etc. since they aren't really used as much anymore and most people reading this are already used to the Japanese honorifics.

Dealers choice. Whatever suits you. You make it clear either way. I do not mind localization when done good like this.

guess that is why he waited until he was the last one standing before trying the ability, less likely to backfire
Exactly! Him getting one-shotted in a "last man standing against impossible odds" scenario is the least-interesting thing that can happen, so he's now sealed off the immediate probable failure route... and also apparently created a plot twist where an outsider has deduced his titular ghost-hacking ability.

I like the new font, but I prefer the honorifics on.
I can see why most publishers choose to use "equivalents" for their official translations since their goal is to reach the widest possible audience, even casual readers; but we are a bunch of weebs in this site.

New fonts good. I do prefer Japanese honorifics.

I took a peak at the raws a little bit ago, but Kuroki>Sanzenin(swordswoman) on the face of it. Glad to know what in the world was up with Deus Ex Machina.
