    I Want to Hear You Say You Like Me - Ch. 11 - ???

    @qyubey not here to convince you not to drop the series, just felt like you put a lot of thought into your comment and that it deserved a response, lol. i thought your perspective was really interesting, since it was the opposite for me - this chapter is the one that caught my attention and made...

    To Be Winner - Ch. 41 - Laboratory

    i couldn't think of any noteworthy translation trivia, so here's a dumb tidbit from my translation process. for some reason, i was really struggling to make the dialogue in this chapter sound natural, so i decided to throw translation fidelity out the door and write a script based purely on the...

    I Want to Hear You Say You Like Me - Ch. 10 - IF

    when soli bullied me into picking up this series, i started reading and was like 'oh, it's a light-hearted romantic comedy with cute art.' then i kept reading, and well - at least i was right about the cute art part. i've been really, really excited about releasing this chapter so i'm glad it's...

    I Want to Hear You Say You Like Me - Ch. 9 - Don't Apologize

    i'm personally in the 'things are more complicated than they seem' boat when it comes to shen shu - it's pretty clear she's not on the boys' side and her reaction to recent events has been intense, to say the least, but her words and actions don't come off as malicious so much as just hurt...

    I Hear I'm Poor - Ch. 23 - Who Knocked Over the Vinegar Pot?

    hi hi, aster here. if you're wondering why this chapter is so late, it's because it took me the whole week to clean the danmaku off niannian's face. thankfully, the next chapter is way easier to clean so we should get that posted SoonTM. as thanks (read: i want praise for my hard work), here's...

    I Want to Hear You Say You Like Me - Ch. 4 - Wait, is this a Love Triangle?

    @xxMysticWolfxx not just you! it's the tooth in his smile that does it, imo - in chinese we call that 小虎牙 'little tiger fang.' although tbh he reacts to things like a scared kitty, too... these past few chapters having been giving me anxiety 'acause of how much sheer awkward there is in these...

    To Be Winner - Ch. 35 - seminar

    @sumatose if i remember correctly, ye ling gets mentioned in a few places but this is the first time he's actually gotten a speaking role? too lazy to check the old chapters, so just going off the top of my head, lol. or if you're asking where he's from originally, he's from chasing the sun...

    To Be Winner - Ch. 36 - heartbeat

    @yannickq i think almost all the names in this series are puns on some level - although sometimes i'm not sure if it's an intended pun or if i'm interpreting too much into them, lol. chinese is just such a fertile ground for wordplay. take yang yao and xiang nan, for example. yang yao's name is...

    To Be Winner - Ch. 36 - heartbeat

    i am absolutely answer choice C right now - momo is my favorite character in the series, and she looks absolutely gorgeous in her introduction! who cares about romance? i only care about feisty redheads! cheng mo's username is actually something i had a lot of trouble with - it's 朱砂点墨 *zhu sha...

    To Be Winner - Ch. 34 - Confessing Secrets

    finally, the 'secret' is out! honestly, it's been so long that i honestly forgot he's not supposed to know... my tl thoughts for this chapter - name introductions are a pain! i spent way too long on the 'the xin that lets your heart rest easy!' line. shen xin's name is 沈心, where 心 means...

    To Be Winner - Ch. 33.5 - Dolo's Destiny Pill Crossover

    dolo's destiny pill version: https://mangadex.org/chapter/966223/1 there's a big jump in chapters because the series is no longer being released on mangadex, but there shouldn't be any spoilers - it's a standalone crossover so should be readable without context.

    To Be Winner - Ch. 33.5 - Dolo's Destiny Pill Crossover

    the character designs in this chapter were so good that i almost wanted to read dolo's destiny pill! there's an accompanying version of this strip drawn by the dolo's destiny pill artist (and the art is super cute!), but i'm not sure if anyone's interested or if we're planning on translating it...

    To Be Winner - Ch. 33 - How it feels to fall in love

    finally, the moment we've all been waiting for! my little heart can't take it ;v; this got way longer than i expected, so essay incoming: a little more background on the title drop: the full idiom is 成也萧何 败也萧何 cheng ye xiao he, bai ye xiao he, and it means 'success and failure both depend on...
