    Akatsuki no Yona - Vol. 35 Ch. 202 - A Poisonous Guest

    Thanks for the great translation! It still irks me that ppl favor the sloppier one just bc it comes out faster; I mean, some of it is just straight-up wrong and causes misguided impressions within fandom (like, I'm pretty sure they totally mistranslated Keishuk's inner thoughts this chapter...

    The Villainess Turns the Hourglass - Vol. 2 Ch. 47

    @degenerateafro Pretty much all "villainess" manhwa are considered otome isekai, even if the protagonist isn't from another world. R/OtomeIsekai's parameters for what is and isn't otome isekai are more useful to readers' purposes than the literal definitions of "otome" and "isekai," since the...

    The Villainess Turns the Hourglass - Vol. 2 Ch. 47

    These otome isekai series always make one very obvious mistake when building their pseudo-European period fantasy worlds: They divide the society into royalty, nobles, and commoners, conveniently forgetting that class divides outside of peerage exist. A society as developed as this one would...

    The Duchess' 50 Tea Recipes - Ch. 56

    This series sure loves to fix complex problems with the simple solution of tea, lol. Clearly the root of the issue here was that the woman's in-laws were judgmental materialistic asshats and her husband wasn't helping to mediate their relationship for some reason, but hey, why address that...

    The Reason Why Raeliana Ended Up at the Duke's Mansion - Vol. 4 Ch. 139

    @GiGiKat Again, I wasn't offended and never said you were "attacking me"(???), but at this point it does seem like you're deliberately trying to annoy me or highkey projecting because my comments upset you. You're the only one who's been trying to make this argument personal, probably because...

    The Reason Why Raeliana Ended Up at the Duke's Mansion - Vol. 4 Ch. 139

    @GiGiKat Look, I can't explain this to you if you insist on ignoring my Doylist standpoint and inferring motives that I don't have. Characters aren't real people. They don't exist in a vacuum or make their own independent choices; they are simply tools to tell a story. I don't have any...

    The Reason Why Raeliana Ended Up at the Duke's Mansion - Vol. 4 Ch. 139

    @GiGiKat Again, you are arguing on completely different terms and completely missing the point. The in-universe justification doesn't matter to me. The story still concludes that people belong in certain predetermined roles based on innate characteristics, which completely flies in the face of...

    The Reason Why Raeliana Ended Up at the Duke's Mansion - Vol. 4 Ch. 139

    @GiGiKat Every time this sort of thing comes up in a story I end up getting tagged by someone who's obviously operating on the Thermian Argument. Internal consistency is not a good excuse for having a biased world operating on hardcore protagonist-centered morality. My problem with this...

    The Reason Why Raeliana Ended Up at the Duke's Mansion - Vol. 4 Ch. 139

    OGRae is dumb (everyone is taking a level in stupid in this story tbh) but frankly her story has more pathos than any of the main characters'. People asking "why couldn't she just appreciate what she had?" don't understand that she wasn't just jealous, she was a puppet of fate. She was written...

    The Reason Why Raeliana Ended Up at the Duke's Mansion - Vol. 4 Ch. 137

    Beatrice (OGRae) is an unfortunate case of "villain has a perfectly reasonable motivation but acknowledging that would disrupt the status quo so we just added on some bafflingly evil stuff to fully condemn that point of view." I think it's telling that everyone's ready to call her a bitch when...

    Akatsuki no Yona - Vol. 35 Ch. 199 - The Dignitary from South Kai

    Thanks so much for the translation! Several things got cleared up here, and I definitely prefer the way you translated Yona's comeback about the lake to other versions I saw floating around. Also glad that the Yas Queen rhetoric re: Yona's unbelievable awesome awesomeness got softened a bit...

    Shadow Queen - Ch. 22

    Lea's expressions and reactions are great and I'm sad that she's firmly in the Comically Eeevil pile of antagonists. Irritated, overworked, ruthless pragmatists are my entire jam. Also, if I were her I'd be looking desperately for a replacement for my replacement right about now. FL is...

    Shadow Queen - Ch. 21

    Kinda expected she'd reveal his talents in front of the crowd, making it impossible to deny him as the best pick, or something … Anyway Lea is funny, I kinda like her, sue me

    Shadow Queen - Ch. 16

    Lea is genuinely funny and relatable here, which highlights how the over-the-top "everyone rubs their Evulness in the FL's face right before killing her" premise wastes what could be a really interesting layered dynamic between the FL and the people using her. Generically, irredeemably evil...
