Jinmyaku Cheat de Hajimeru Hitomakase Eiyuu-tan - Vol. 1 Ch. 7 - Prideful ‘Personal Preference'

[Wolvenworks]

Breh I was just finished with translating this chapter and was just about to upload it but then I saw that someone else picked it up.

Upload it it anyway. Surely it can’t be worse than KS’ unproofed TLs right? I mean, look how they changed the names.

 

[EobardThawne]

Ah i see, currently they’re lacking quality checker, no wonder there are few mistakes

 

[Ezlsnow]

Can't say I'm really feeling the changes to the character names...

I mean, look how they changed the names.

I don't know about Reese -> Reze since they just transliterated her name レーゼ, but changing GD's May to Meiru is technically correct since her name is メイル＝アクセント (Meiru Akusento, Male Accent? lol), and Ned -> Net is also correct since his name is ネット＝ワークンター (Netto Wakuinta, Net Workinter) a wordplay of Internetwork.

Alright now how long until GD releases like 6 chapters they have in storage in retaliation

Let's thug it out, worst case scenario the people gets 2 different translation they can pick, MORE CAKES!

MORE CAKES?! EVEN BETTER

the TL of this manga messaged me about this and their choice, too.

"I don't know if the author is playing with words or doing it on purpose, but the main character's name is Net from Internet, the country is Intel and Nvidia, and the knight's name is also pronounced as Mail"

Wait…you telling me that somehow KS made better TLs than GD? And that the names were basically puns the whole time?

Sigh... Encounter a scene with a woman ontop of a man, what do you do?
Ask what's going on? Nope.
Immedeatly blame the man ofcourse

Just upload it, don't let the work goes to waste. Add a disclaimer about the situation and, well, some people may still be complaining but that's life.

I think mc's name is more of a reference of "interpersonal networking", which basically what his "skill" is.

Yes, since first chapter. Like Luoir said, the kingdoms' names were literally Intel (インテール, Intēru) and Nvidia (エーヌビディア, Ēnubidia). In chapter 2, Princess Iris Intel was introduced and is based on Intel Iris integrated graphics processor. What eludes me are the names of Nvidia princess Rushira Nvidia (ルシラ＝エーヌビディア) and the adventurer leader Rēze von Aldira? (レーゼ＝ヴォン＝アルディラ, Rēze von Arudira), if they're even puns at all or just actual names.

IT'S ALIVE!!!! now time to wait for another years i guess....

I got hired as a QC there don't worry the chapters over there should be better now. Hopefully and mine is not much better in the scene of I cant get some of the text out side of the text bubbles with out a simple background behind it because I don't have a redrawer (I do but for a dif series).

When the Japanese fetishes leak too hard into the fantasy realm.

Oh neat this finally got picked up

This is based on a novel so maybe you could skim that too and compare/base it on those as well?

Nn, I checked Novel Updates. There's one translator who worked on the LN up to Vol. 3, but they named the characters wrong as well (Ned, May, Rushia, etc.) which may be what some manga scans copied or had the same result from a machine translator.
