And yet another official translation with a ridiculous name. It's starting to feel like they're intentionally trying to come up with an unappealing name whenever they have to translate a Japanese manga.

To be fair, they're clearly drawing their name from what the series becomes. The actual title of this manga frankly makes no sense anymore, as Misora is no longer an idol, nor is she in hell (she used to hate her job, if you recall).

@codetaku She's still a gravure idol (And still hagure aka rogue) and shit still happens to her, so I don't see a problem here. Not to mention that the English title makes even less sense and literally compresses everything up to the events of the first 3-4 chapters. The fact that Rui doesn't care at all about the sequence of his plot is a separate story, lol.

@Ovdose It's just that English translators, like Russian ones, are complete normies, so their imagination is not very rich. However, in my country everything is much worse, our translators seem to take titles from cheap soap operas.

'And then they fucked. The End!'

Thanks for the translation! At first I thought the publisher's name 'Seven Seas Entertainment' and 'GhostShip' print was a euphemism for PirateBay

Hot damn I can't wait to be able to own Hagure idol officially. Thanks for your hard work as always @Odoritomaki
Lotta good Brutality this chapter. Lots of meaty blows straight to the face. Luna's a strange mix of Terrifying and sexy seriously. I'd main her in a video game.

@Myorn Add "first they fought" at the beginning and you literally describe all this manga in one sentence, lol.

@Yotomoe One of the biggest downsides to reading raws is that when I read discussions of translated chapters, I can barely hold back from fat spoilers.

So they did.

@Speilkins Someone came up with "Fist of the Porn Star" and I thought that was infinitely better.

@Ironclad Lol, with that logic Blade could be called a Vampire. Misora ​​is not a pornstar and literally the whole story is based on that she is fighting not to become one.

@SuperOniichan...Blade IS a vampire, and Misora has starred in gravure and only avoided porn by literally beating male pornstars away on film.

We can only hope that the official release's translation notes are half as detailed and informative!
