Can this be any more depressing?

Spoiler

yes, it can

 

[kamishiniyari]

Is this a reupload?? I am pretty sure I've read this

 

[Daxar]

@kamishiniyari yep, he pulled it a few days ago to fix the typesetting.

 

[kamishiniyari]

@Daxar , ah , i see

 

[DrWhoCares]

@Mirazu better, that's for sure. About on par with previous releases. Still a number of typesetting issues, although.

Biggest problem is still more the fact that your proofreader, @Daxar , isn't very good at all.

Regardless, you improved, and that's worth respect.

 

[BaToolo]

@DrWhoCares Aight my guy. Let's keep it at that, alright? Though there might be things that can be improved here, translation, as well as what belongs to editing, this is enough of a good product to not put any shame on any people that worked on this. I don't know what your criteria are, but this isn't some official release, and just something from fans, for fans, so expecting perfection is ridiculous. Also, I very much do not appreciate the fact that you just attack people out of the blue, especially not people from my team that are doing this for free. I highly suggest that you change your attitude, and make spend more time actually working on something instead of complaining on other people's releases, which have even improved from last time.
That's all I wanted to say, have a nice day.

Honestly, I'm so happy to see a group working on this series. Keep up the good work, guys!

 

[beperov]

Thanks for the translation!

 

[InfiniteVerisimilitude]

Thanks for the translation!

@BaToolo
It doesn't take much to do a good job. If you're doing this for you, and you're doing it for free, then there's no rush. No deadline.

So why release something subpar? If you don't have a lot of skill, then spend more time refining your work, or learning. If you're new, or don't understand something, or simply just don't know something, ask someone. Research and learn.

If you believe "this is enough of a good product to not put any shame on any people that worked on this."
Then I think your bar is set too low. There's a number of glaring, easily fixed issues, that aren't nitpicky in the slightest.

It's an improvement over the original release, but is it good? Not really. It's below average. That doesn't mean you need to give up or anything, it just means you need to learn from your mistakes and do better.

On a somewhat different topic, a proofreader should be a native speaker of the target language, with substantial experience and a superior grasp over nuance. That's not always achievable, but it doesn't mean you can't ask for help from someone else.

 

[BaToolo]

@DrWhoCares Well, it seems like I'm talking to a brick wall right now, so I'll stop flooding the comments with this useless banter. If you don't like our work/quality, you're free to do that. We, as a team, are happy with the result. And so are many, many other people, who genuinely are thankful for what we are doing, so I will not let one elitist like you pull our moral down, acting as if you were born a genius, straight out insulting people here.
Have a nice day ma guy, and here's to hoping that you will improve on your rather unfortunate personality as well, one day.

 

[Powerless]

@drwhocares quit being a little shit, you're literally the only person that has complained, get over yourself mate

 

[syph3r]

I love the translation and the series so thankyou all so much for puting in the work so someone like myself gets to read the series im loving it so far cant wait for more @BaToolo @Daxar keep up the good work

sigh it sucks that people like DrWhoCares [btw you care apparently] are seen rather often on this site wish groups could ban them from reading there stuff but leave it up for everyone else... snobs that complain but do nothing to help out

P.S. are there any other manga like this that anyone know of? im loving the mix of romance, mystery and rather fast pace [or rather not super slow] and the fact that the MC is not dumb as all hell and seems like a good guy

@DrWhoCares
kys

 

[pandatime]

Oh hey
The
Galaxy train Huh
the other things been more like old classic novel titles too i guess

 

[DrWhoCares]

@BaToolo
I mean, there's nothing I can do if you guys are happy with the result. You can point out someone's mistakes, but you can't force them to learn.
I believe you should strive to better yourself, even if people flood you with positive feedback, it doesn't mean you can't grow and become better still.

But that's your choice. I'm in no position to try and force you to change, nor would I attempt to. So unless there's something you need from me, you can freely continue to ignore my criticism.

@syph3r A bit off-topic, so I'll only state the opinion once, but giving any moderation power to groups would be awful for the community at large (moderation power, as opposed to control over their uploads).
Also, your statement that "slobs that complain but do nothing to help out" seems flawed. Not everyone can help out. The vast majority of consumers of a groups release merely read the release then move on. So I don't really understand what you mean by that.

Telling another user to kill themselves because you disagree with their comments is unacceptable.

Have an involuntary one-day vacation from commenting, and please consider what you're saying before saying before jamming the "submit" button.
Thanks,
