Nitpicky grammar thing: on page 1, the "gyaru stream with nearly 700k subscribers who's kind to otaku's" shouldn't have an apostrophe on "otakus". It's not a contraction. It's not possessive. It's just plural, so no apostrophe needed.
Ah yes, the greengrocer's apostrophe.

To be fair, that was just me being Polish and doing that word wrong.


For context, when I do Polish TL for my own group, when I have to conjugate a Japanese word (like names + honorifics combo for example), I (mostly) do it by taking the japanese text without changes and add stuff after the apostrophe, so it sounds "right", like this for example:

"Book written by X-kun" would be "Książka napisana przez X-kun'a."

And, well, it's not that big of a mistake, so I might just keep it for shits and giggles.
