Man, these comments warm my heart. In case anyone is curious what happened:
3 months of inflammations all over my body, 5+ simultaneous diseases, internal bleedings, and barely being able to sleep cuz of the pain have taken a big toll on me physically and mentally. I could barely stand or think...
She's saying that her love isn't mere koi (koi is worldly and shallow compared to ai), but ai (which is a deeper, spiritual and more profound kind of love).
Hey hey, translator here. That last colored double spread was made by our redrawer/typesetter DegenerexeV. They used an AI coloring tool to create a base image, and redrew over the (many) weird artefacts that it created, and did a bunch of post-processing and touch ups as well. Whaddayathink?
Both are clearly growing in this arc so far though.
Earnest tried getting Blade's attention by making him jealous, only to have it backfire when Ashgard revealed he looked at her as a candidate to be his wife. She realizes she messed up when she says "I'm the worst." Ashgard then gives her an...
If the ancient world in this series is our world (quite a few hints point to this), I'm worried about what "ancient texts" he was referring to... I'm sure he's joking, but jeez man...
His surname being Enlight doesn't make him sound any more like he's from a desert country (at least in our world).
In JP his name is Ashugarudo, which I would transliterate as Ashgard instead of Asgard. But I know this manga likes to name some characters after mythological figures, so I ended...
The last 3 chapters were on the goofy side, but without spoiling much, the next arc looks more serious. In fact, the entire volume is only 2 chapters long! (with the last chapter split up into 3 parts)
I like how Blade only thinks of Yessica's swimsuit in terms of how practical it is on the battlefield. He literally says "The defense ability of your butt seems low," but it sounds more awkward in Japanese, so I translated it as "Your bum looks quite defenseless".
On Earnest's and Eliza's...
I think Leonard, Clay and Kassim are more memorable to Japanese readers, because Japanese readers are familiar with the stereotypes they embody, which are different from stereotypes in Western media. Most weebs know about your tsunderes, kuuderes, etc. but there are so many stereotypes that most...
To add to what Degen said: We want people to be able to read the available chapters on Mangadex, cuz it's our preferred platform. People could have read the chapter of the old group on aggregator websites, but we don't like those much.
Part of me would love to go back and redo the earlier...
The pronunciation I was aiming for is Blee-fai-yuhr (US English) or Blee-fai-yah (UK English). I wanna keep the translation as cannon as possible, so the pronunciation probably won't change. But I could change the spelling a bit. Do you think Blifyre would be better than Blifire? Do you have any...
