The artist screwed up a bubble in P22 so we did a sneaky edit there. Thankfully these slip ups don't happen too frequently.

Thanks for the chapter. Aside from unnecessarily keeping the Japanese honorifics instead of translating them, it's really more pleasant to read, especially thanks to the editing.

What's up with the translation of Angelica and rihyarda's names?

What's up with the translation of Angelica and Rihyarda's names?

Angeltika's name was directly suggested by our beta reader.
Richarda's name is more complicated, the Japanese spelling of her name is closer to that of the old German name than just trying to spell out the kana. Male version is already called Richard (https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/リヒャルト) so we feel comfortable enough to go with this.

What's up with the translation of Angelica and rihyarda's names?

To add a bit more information to this, Angelika is the more traditional German spelling of the name, while Angelica is more often used in English and the Romance languages. Considering the setting's obvious German influence, we decided to go with the former.
Richarda's name in Japanese is リヒャルダ. Phonetically, that might look like it sounds like Rihyarda, but Japanese also uses ヒャ when writing out names like Michael and, notably, Richard in katakana. Considering that Richarda is also already a traditional German name, though rare, that's what we went with.

Angelica/Angelika makes her first appearance! Doll-like in her appearance and thoughts!

I've always wondered where Otilie's family fit into the whole noble status equation. I'm sure there's some diagram out there showing it.

Interesting choice of transliterations. Defensible I suppose, but still very weird to see in print.

There's the arguments over leaning towards purist translation and rewrite translations. But mixing japanese suffixes then replacing it with an english title just make things worse.

This option make it feels inconsistent :/ feels like it'll flow better if they keep either the Japanese suffix or English title
