Shachou to Sake to Hoshi - Ch. 41 - The President and the Deputy Manager

[Arventius]

The whole "clark kent" trope is always annoying. But the moment the FL starts actively going for both sides (or better two guys) is kind of a let down.

If the other group drops it again i hope you guys come back!!!

 

[Hauberk1800]

Yo,

it's probably going to end much the same way that meeting with the other company. Reina will clutch up and say something to permanently win over Kishimoto while Ishizumi makes a quietly proud face and we hear his internal monolgue but like, interesting and not boring the way I just said it.

Thanks for the tl and being willing to pick up the series when it was announced it was being dropped. Will definitely check out your other work yo

Also, Ishizumi is crazy well connected at work

 

[MarcoMook]

I feel like I'm misunderstanding his position in the company. Honestly need a chart showing how all these characters sit in the heirarchy. Did some modest googling with their positions and titles and how they work with each other doesn't make a ton of sense to me.

Our translator isn't a native English speaker so our typesetters correct his English from time to time. One correction got made, the other didn't. Fairly straight forward

No doesn't make sense. The constant term changing reeks of MTL. I just gotta ask, how do you make this mistake in Ch 37?

Yet in the previous chapter you translated the interaction like this:

Hrrmmmm. Gonna blame the inability to grasp the story on ESL? Context matters when translating JP. I like to read and compare both versions to the JP. Interesting to see. But this is just plain sloppy.

For me it will turn out that also her father was also like Reina when drunk, so kishimoto will go memories™ and will fully accept her, or something like that

Yeah cause machines famously translate the same input differently.
Use your head. These are obviously human mistakes.
If you've ever translated anything before it's pretty obvious what's MTL and what isn't.
And if it is MTL and these are the biggest mistakes you're able to find, who actually cares?

 

[Hauberk1800]

Honestly yeah, I could see that too. We did see him and Kishimoto with a tie around the head seemingly drunk

We got a nameeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee for new best girl!!!

Ootomo Cushions looking even more confortable/huggable than Prez

Thank you for the translations

Great news! now you don’t have to read our translations anymore. good for you!

I don't understand the point of trying to prematurely snipe or take over a series when your translation quality is worse.

You could at least try out series nobody is currently doing, or if you're going to snipe then don't be obviously worse at it then other translations.

Sorry that we don’t have 4 EXPERIENCED groups working on this manga. We saw that they hadn’t posted in a while and posted our own translations. Now we’re giving Shachou back to the previous translators.

i've said it from the start, but i'll repeat it: this series could still work without the izumi/ishizumi schtick. You can have an arc where she finds out, he quits the company, leaves, she realizes she's in love and also really needs him in the company, she goes looking for him, talks him into coming back, but she pussies out of confessing and things go back to status quo where she continues to get drunk, do silly and horny shit (with Ishizumi this time) and then forgets all about it. The double personality drama is dumb as fuck (1) and (2) it makes our FMC look like a borderline retarded person.
The art and the sillier moments are the thing keeping me from droping this series, i really really don't like that Reina is so fucking stupid, i hate dense protagonists.
that's not going to happen up until the finale, so at least i can hope that she starts falling for the real ishizumi and not the guy she made up in her head while she's drunk.

I LOVE OOTOMO SO
MUCH

[Matau228]

I'm betting Kishimoto is currently drunk as well.

REINA NOOOOOOOOOO

 

[outinthegardener]

Old man has made the classic blunder, where he both fails to have faith that the youth will gain experience and rise up, and has forgotten that he too was once young and inexperienced. His thinking is locked in a pessimistic "nope can't" instead of the positive "how can we, as an organization, work together to lift everyone up?"

The Mea Culpa is gonna taste nice.
