    I Want to Hear You Say You Like Me - Ch. 21 - I Only Want to See You (?)

    fun fact: i only PR the actual chapter, so anything in the post-chapter Q&A is 100% soli. for example, if the question is 'why is shen shu with yu xiang?' and you're wondering 'who the fuck is yu xiang?' - well, you know who to blame. c; anyways, sorry for the late chapter. both of us have been...

    To Be Winner - Ch. 46 - offline discussion

    honestly i'm 90% these past two chapters are just an excuse for the artist to draw all the sexy motorcycle man she wants... today's idle translation/cultural context thoughts: in this chapter, JING calls xiao he by the nickname 阿河 'ah he.' it's pretty common in chinese to give people familiar...

    To Be Winner - Ch. 45 - deception

    @yannickq yep! i just went with 'take my car!' because it sounded less stilted in english to me and it didn't occur to me that motorcycles are not considered cars in english, lol.

    To Be Winner - Ch. 45 - deception

    @fantasymaster lol, that's probably my bad! the nuances don't really translate well, so here's my long tl note -- most words in chinese are compound words. in chinese, a car is 汽车 and a motorcycle is 摩托车; you might notice that both of them include the 车 character. so yang yao says 'take my 车'...

    To Be Winner - Ch. 45 - deception

    if you're curious about the omake at the end - it's a reference to a chinese meme song that was popular a while back! the song is called 骑上我亲爱的的小摩托 'riding my beloved moped.' here's a performance video. it doesn't come with lyrics but i mean, the lyrics are basically just 'riding my beloved...

    I Hear I'm Poor - Ch. 31 - You're Good!

    @etherius honestly, the description isn't really accurate because the events in it haven't really happened yet! i was thinking about rewriting it since it's sort of a spoiler, but it's the official description and i'm lazy, lol. we're finally getting to the summary, though. xie you has been...

    I Want to Hear You Say You Like Me - Ch. 19 - Us

    my soli callout for the day is this line: > also why do people think ziang's happiness is based off xu xuan's sacrifice, am i reading a different manhua from y'all!!! yes. yes you are, because xu xuan is a character from i hear i'm poor, not from this series. honestly though, the amount of times...

    I Want to Hear You Say You Like Me - Ch. 18 - The Instigator's Confession

    @jent318 hahaha, your comment actually made me realize it's not a radio station, it's the school PA system! they're the same word in chinese (广播站) but in this context, it's clearly a public announcement, not a radio broadcast. guess i'm an idiot for not catching that in my proofread, but at...

    I Want to Hear You Say You Like Me - Ch. 16 - Better Late Than Never

    this chapter brought to you by my internet provider, which has been out for sixteen of the past twenty-four hours and left me with nothing to do but clean chapters. next chapter's a long one (18 pages!), so i guess i've got a few more internet outages in my future before that gets posted.

    I Want to Hear You Say You Like Me - Ch. 15 - Signs of Change

    ah yes, the extreme makeover: manhua edition chapter. sorry for slow updates ;v; i've been pretty busy and the transparent bubbles are killing me to clean every time. as always i am looking for people to split work with me, but i'm not sure if anyone would willingly subject themselves to suffer...

    Black Haze

    @ololp ...what. no seriously, what. i'm not sure why you'd think that an author whose series last updated three days ago died in 2018, or why you'd think that a korean author would've been born or died in china, or why someone born in 1924 is working a regular schedule making weekly manhwa in...

    I Want to Hear You Say You Like Me - Ch. 13 - The Courage to Face Reality

    ever since we switched universes, we've also switched to a new text bubble style - less bubble padding, oval bubbles, and worst of all, semi-transparent bubble backgrounds. i want to go back to the old universe with nice, solid bubbles... please send me back... if you're wondering why these...

    To Be Winner - Ch. 42 - Mysterious Encounter

    cheng mo! cheng mo! every time i see cheng mo on screen i get really excited. there's actually two characters who had their names changed in this chapter: the first one is professor zuo -> professor wang (the professor who asked xiao he to be his teaching assistant). i thought the original...
