Our Boy has the best cake

I really thought his cake was finally nerfed because of this panel lol

I don't see a poll here, but keep the name as it is, from what I can tell from googling the name means the golden promise, and don't really understand your "westernized" version of the name

 

[HZN]

I guess that ass shot was necessary huh?

 

[Whoopswrong]

I think it should be kept as nuojin for the consistency.

i kinda prefer "nokin" from the earliest chapters translated by zeroscans. the hard K gave the name a sort of biting edge that, imo, perfectly fit the eldritch nature of the setting

That term is incorrect, as the earlier scan used a term taken directly from the novel, which was a fan translation with MTL-level quality. You can literally get that word by Google Translating '诺金'.

That's the literal meaning. But it doesn't really have any important meaning on this series even on the novel so it's not really lore-bound. "Norgin" doesn't have any important meaning either, but I'm only trying to get the opinions of each readers to see what they prefer. But regardless, I respect whichever it is.

Honestly I personally don't mind either way if you make it more western or not. Just appreciate you scanning this 🫵🫡😀

 

[CaptSpaz]

I think you should keep it the same. There’s no real need to change it.

 

[Valdemar1607]

I think Nuojin is better. Also thanks for asking and not changing it just because you feel like it.

 

[ReikoLupus]

Mmm, is a bit complicated since this story does have a more western-style with the names in general.
But, I think that using a mix of western and eastern names may have been the intent of the author, rather than just being accidental or something like that.
Given that possibility, I would keep it as it is.

Irregardless, I still like "Nokin" better.

Norgin doesn't really sound good, Nokin was alright in the earlier chapters even if 'incorrect', but I think Nuojin is fine. Yes it's not westernized but it's not that jarring compared to the names and setting. It's also what we've spend almost a hundred or more chapters adjusting to. It would be more jarring if it was changed at this point when it's hardly a bother -- unlike the names which absolutely needed westernized to match the setting.

 

[RNChezzuz]

I'm just used to Nokin because most of the chapters already use it and it feels both western-like and fantastical. Nuojin sounds more direct from chinese. I like first but either is fine, Norgin is just going going back on one knot to make another

 

[Servbot]

Absolutely everyone is caked up in this manhua. Even the guys. Especially the guys.

 

[Eals]

I vote for consistency always, but Nokin has been used more often, right?
