fug.

TY for you excellent work on this till now TL. I completely understand your position.

join me my friend, in waiting for someone else less upright (this is technically a good thing to do) to pick this up.

Same. This is effectively on hiatus for me till the scrapers pick it up.

Thanks for the chapter and your work up til now!

To reiterate, please go support the mangaka by reading from official sources (now that there finally is an English one).

So if the name of the town is Perdition, then doesn't that mean that the other town/country names listed this chapter are other biblical names, like Moloch?

Also Fix Girl.... why do the hot ones always have to be crazy?

Hope this one stays a more long term ally/rival. If not they might be offed by the the secret terrorist sect for digging

Turn off my adblock and install an app to actually make an account? Fuck no. A manga reader without adblock is cancer. Official or not.

Thank you for all the great work on this series so far. As a TL myself I wanna believe I can relate to pretty much all the points you raised in your "essay". I hope you'll either find a new series to devote your time to, or just enjoy the extra free time you now have xD

Thanks for the fish, Stopwatch!

Thank you for this amazing chapter and your amazing work. I will miss your translations. I hope you do more translations as the LONE, THE NOBLE, THE GREAT Stopwatch Translations.

It's how many of them are just absolutely horrible, everything is using that stupid divide chapters by several different parts system, the readers are ass […]
And yeah Manga-UP has MTL on there too, there's really no silver lining on official Square releases on there

Yeah, the Japanese app is better in every way. The amount of free chapters a day is similar, but being able to get (temporary) premium currency by watching an ad a day is okay in my books. And it also never suddenly stops loading the rest of the chapter midway through, which happens every 2-3 chapters on the English one.
(The chapters are split up into segments because of the nature of it being a weekly manga. I'm personally okay with 12-16 pages a week, but not with all those cliffhangers…)
Just to note, this series is definitely being translated properly.

I've said it before but I'll say it again. Dominion really does come off as an older more hinged Ehta if he ever decided to be a hero.

Even their exchange on Page 35 mirrors each other

And I really have to agree on that, especially with Dominion's short temper and [EXPUNGED].

So if the name of the town is Perdition, then doesn't that mean that the other town/country names listed this chapter are other biblical names, like Moloch?

Given Fujichika's track record, I never would've guessed that any of the names would be references to different religious terms (even if one of the villain names Ehta came up with in ch. 1 was Baphomet). Especially after already knowing she referenced esotericism in a previous manga—which I even translated.
Given that, I'll get around adjusting all chapters in the coming days to better reflect those references.
Edit: These are now implemented.

Spoiler: affected terms

Perizitan -> Perdition (ペリジタン)
Bullhett -> Beelhett (ブルヘト)
Baalsthan -> Baalstan (バアルスタン)
Molech -> Moloch (モレク)

Before I forget; the ch. 16.5 Omake will go up on Friday.

I think he's getting skinnier by the day. Compared to his first appearance in his villain costume. Now his ribs is much more prominent when he's donning his costume.

So uh. Can we get a SL request going?
