Yes, I know it's offensive to call someone trans their biological sex; it's the same principle as being deadnamed. The reason I didn't do that here is because "woman" alone doesn't carry the nuance of the original JP, imo, despite it working as an offensive term for the EN TL. I think you...

Don't worry, I appreciate the feedback! Sorry, it was not my intention to speak for you. I only meant that trap is often an offensive term, especially when someone cis is calling a trans person that (which we see here in the story). I understood that "reverse trap" would've been the more...

I probably should've added a note at the end for this. They used オレ女, which refers to very masculine girls who use 俺 as their pronoun of choice. I opted to translate this as "trap," as it's a derogatory term for trans people, which I think works in context since the others are looking down on...

If you're asking about why I think we're being misled by Kurema's last line, I feel like it's possible the author's trying to get us to think of him as a bad guy for now and later reveal that he actually has some sort of trauma/guilt that makes him think of himself in a negative light. It's just...

@Msaid08

@HaraZhi Sorry for the delay, I'm still working on it, the chapters are just really long OTL

@Neterian No, we won't be. You can purchase the official English volumes or find it on other sites.

@glarblarjinx That could be part of it, but it should become clearer in the next few chapters! I can add my interpretation of it in the end notes in those future chapters.

@blurgh123 It can be, but it isn’t necessarily so. For instance, when Takayanagi talks about Rousseau and the West, “God” is more applicable, but in other scenes, it’s not so clear-cut (since 神様, “kami-sama,” can be translated a number of ways). How I see it is that when he’s talking with...

@brainman @mangolover just fyi, but there's actually only about 60 more chapters since we're using the volumes, which condense the chapters (as opposed to the chinese translation/japanese web release) glad to hear you're enjoying the series!

@Stutik

@Short_Circut Even so, his frustration seems misdirected to me. He should be frustrated at the guy who hit on her and have more faith in his own girlfriend. Aside from the whole Ichise incident (Kotaro's co-worker) in which Asako felt jealous, this is pretty much the first time this has happened...

@Short_Circut Yeah, I didn't like that about Henrik either, but I mean, they should trust each other enough to know that something like that shouldn't affect their relationship. They're about to move in together—Asako's not gonna leave him for some random dude on the streets. I'm not trying to...

To those pointing out the difference in significance about business cards in Japan vs. other countries, sure that's a valid point. However, Kotaro himself knows (and states he knows) that all Asako did was accept it out of politeness. I'm glad they talked it out a little, but I still think it...

@Odin7mangaR please be patient, we've just been busy the past few weeks; i still plan on releasing on a nearly weekly basis
