    Fushigi no Kuni no Bird - Vol. 1 Ch. 5 - Nikko (2)

    Not any specifically to celebrate a child's introduction to adulthood. The closest equivalent at the time might have been "coming out" into society for girls around ages 16-18, where they might go to a debutante ball, but that was only for the upper class. There was also "breeching", when a boy...

    Fushigi no Kuni no Bird - Vol. 10 Ch. 49 - Hakodate (3)

    Some more facts about Captain Vyse I found that weren't pertinent to the summary, but shed some light as to what sort of man he was: • His father was Major General Richard William Howard Howard Vyse, who was a British soldier and Egyptologist, though I use the term lightly. The second Howard in...

    Oh, that explains why sometimes it's spelled with two A's and sometimes with one. Thank you, I was wondering about that. It also explains why I'm having a tricky time finding Finnish spellings for these names. If they're just generic European then that actually helps a lot.

    Unfortunately most all the names are only written in katakana so a lot of it is just me doing a lot of research because I know absolutely no Finnish whatsoever. (Did you know the Finnish government has a searchable list of common last names? Very helpful) If you see anything that seems...

    No, I apologize for the very long time in between releases, real life has been rather hectic this past year but the next chapter is almost ready

    Fushigi no Kuni no Bird - Vol. 1 Ch. 3 - Kasukabe

    I honestly have no idea. I've never been to Australia personally so I can't say how they compare, but I can say you would be amazed at the number of cockroaches you see in a semi-rural Japanese city even today.

    Fushigi no Kuni no Bird - Vol. 1 Ch. 3 - Kasukabe

    Her previous trips were to Australia, Colorado, and Hawaii, so she probably wasn't expecting quite so many insects. (It's a bit of a shock, even in modern times, once you get even slightly out of the city) And yes, "creature" was a way of saying "person" back in the 1800s-ish that has since...

    Fushigi no Kuni no Bird - Vol. 1 Ch. 4 - Nikko (1)

    To be fair to the real Miss Bird, she is remarkably liberal minded for the era. Other travelogues from the same period are so egregiously racist and colonialist I've given up using them as a primary source because I can't be sure what's true, what's a mistranslation, what's willful...

    There's an official Finnish version now too but I doubt that's any better for you lol

    I'm still working on it! I've just been on hiatus for the past few months for personal reasons, but will release something hopefully soon!

    Hotel Metsäpeura e Youkoso - Vol. 2 Ch. 13 - A Guest from a Farm

    I did make a point to mention that it wasn't plot-significant, but I see your point. I'm having trouble thinking of phrasing that will sufficiently warn people but not spoil the chapter.

    Hotel Metsäpeura e Youkoso - Vol. 2 Ch. 13 - A Guest from a Farm

    You are correct, I should probably go back and insert content warnings for those chapters as well.

    The content warning is for people who may have had some trauma in the past regarding animal deaths, or perhaps have had a pet die recently. If you do not require the warning, good! I'm glad you don't have issues with this subject.

    Hotel Metsäpeura e Youkoso - Vol. 2 Ch. 12 - To Saariselkä

    Ahahaha whoops no that was a translation mistake on my part. It totally says president in Japanese and I remember double checking the wikipedia article on her for the spelling. For some reason I just had a massive brain fart and replaced president with prime minister. Thanks for pointing it out...

    Oh wow I didn't know that. Looking at the magazines, it appears this chapter was published in Haruta in November 2021, while the fire happened in February 2022.
