We discussed Frühträne with one of our German-speaking members, and ended up with our spelling after considering possible roots in German words and making it at least look like (even if it isn't really) valid German. As for harspiel, that's fundamentally wrong from the outset. The word is...

Read it. Good stuff. And yeah, people (myself included) would probably appreciate it if we could get it from chapter 4 onwards. But be careful. If it's already licensed in English, the publishers might not take kindly to you scanlating it, and there's a possibility of legal action being taken...

What's the other book-lover series you're planning on picking up? I'd like to give the first few chapters a try if they're on here.

Isekai Izakaya Nobu

The translation quality has taken a bit of a dive for this chapter. What’s with all the out-of-place “in which”s?

The anime really dropped the ball with this scene. It wasn’t nearly as emotional.

I'm actually pretty okay with the horizontal pages. Probably the least annoying April fools prank I've seen to date.

Jesus. Keep this shit between you private. All I wanted was to read a damn manga and maybe discuss with other readers, and you two turned it political. Uploader made it worse by putting the beef in the damn upload. Get your shit together. Trans or not, transphobic or not, none of that has...

Thanks for pointing this out. The TL error has been corrected.

You think that just because they used blood, it must have been a contract? When Myne specifically says “Why do magic TOOLS like to use blood?” Not to mention the fact that it’s explained that magic contracts use a special ink, and there’s no ink involved in the baptism at all. Or the simplest...

One of the comments in our reddit post for this chapter thinks that Fran's reaction might be because of some trauma between him and the previous orphanage director.

I don't know where you're getting that, because there's no contract shown in the baptism, just a medallion of some sort. Probably more a citizenship registration or census than a contract. Nowhere (at least in the manga) is it shown or said that anyone is forced to accept a contract during their...

Don’t. This guy’s a scam artist who doesn’t pay his translators with the overpriced paywalls he “offers” chapters behind.

I agree with most of what you said, but there's just one issue I have with dropping it and letting J-Novel Club's official English translation be the only translation: JNC's version sucks. As an official company, they have their own sociopolitical, cultural, and ideological standards to uphold...

I wouldn’t say it “doesn’t” require a skillset. I mean, I’ve tried, and I’m not really able, which is why I joined TOOR in the first place. That said, I appreciate the recognition of the skill I spent a lot of time and effort developing in order to properly translate Japanese. But I have to ask...

I generally do the translations using the lower quality stuff, just to make sure I can make our schedule. But you made a bad assumption: the translation and proofreading is actually one of the easier parts of what we do with this series. Cleaning, redrawing, and typesetting take up most of the...

I guess he got the few 50USD donations he scammed us for.

I don't think you need to apologize for your translation. You're doing great work here. Thanks!

You should join a group or find a some people who can help you out with it. Scanlating isn't just translating, it's also proofreading cleaning (removing JP text from the bubbles) typesetting (adding EN text to the bubbles) and sometimes redrawing (removing JP text that isn't in bubbles and...
