The title is like reading a tweet from Jayden Smith:

"How can we be real when our eyes aren't real?"

I kind of hate the fact that Japanese manga titles don't get translated nearly as often as anything else, such as Chinese manhua titles or Korean manhwa titles. It's like Japanese needs to be super special with its titles left untranslated. Meanwhile, we get translations like this. And yes, it is an issue with translations. 没有身体的我们如何恋爱 could mean something like "How do we fall in love without a body?"

Not trying to insult the translator as I'm sure they worked hard, but I'm personally fine with leaving it just in pinyin.

@comeonnow But then there will also be those that complain about the manhua title not being translated like what you said about the Japanese. You’re completely right that there are other translations to the title since Chinese can have multiple meanings. I was also stuck between the two and eventually chose the one I uploaded. But hey, can’t satisfy everyone. Why don’t you start group by yourself and try? Maybe you can do better :)

@sorazzz Sincere question. Do you see a lot of people complaining when a Japanese manga title is romanized but otherwise left untranslated? Or even a substantial amount of people. Do you see that often? How about for Chinese manhua or Korean manhwa titles that are left untranslated? Do you see many people complain there?

In my experience browsing comments, I haven't seen that, but I could be missing something, so I'm asking for your experiences.

I have considered translating some works for the languages I do know, but I admit I'm not confident enough. And to be clear, as I said above, I was not trying to insult you or anything like that. I respect the work that you do even if I might think it should be changed sometimes. I was just giving my opinion on the way Japanese manga is treated differently than other works.

The one-star ratings are likely mostly bots, I really like this one. Definitely recommend giving it a shot.
