I never normally do things that aren't out in volumes yet, but I was so delighted to see Yuu Suzuki start another ongoing series after the untimely end of Wolf and Revolver and a couple of one-shots over the past year - and to see something so squarely within my wheelhouse - that I couldn't really resist.

Thanks for the chapter.

I like the feel of this and the artstyle. Let's see where this will go, but I am quite optimistic.

And now I also want to drive one of those Lantern Buses. Seems to have more space than at first glance too.

Thank you for this; I feel like the decision to TL the sfx is make-or-break here, and I was immersed. Really wearing its mono no aware on its sleeve, but in a way that feels earned? For some reason, it was the moment she grilled the tea berries while the travelled looked on, taking notes, that I was fully won over.
this is also my introduction to the artist

Such a feel good story so far, I'm definitely intrigued

Sweet, right in my alley. Love these kind of fantasy travelogue, just to read what others imagining stuff.

Another fine addition to my reading collection. Thanks for the translation

Just adding a note that the web publication of Hirahirahira is now doing the annoying thing of publishing half a chapter at a time ("2-1" came out today). I have no interest in this model of publication (half a chapter a month is no way to read a story) so it's likely I'll be back to waiting for the volume releases before doing any more.
