It was almost okay within the bounds of a gag manga for the first fifty chapters-ish, but when she really goes off the deep end and starts actually doing truly horrifying things (e.g. strangling the little brother, making and then "disposing of" clones) it really is just too dark for me to even take as a joke. Yet it kind of just marches on as if such things are just another gag...

Truly this is meant for people who think yandere is cool. =_=;

I don't think this manga is to be taken seriously. Sure it's dark and absurd humor but I don't think it ever goes overboard. Kind of like the "Tom & Jerry" and "Roadrunner" cartoons. I disagree that this is for people who think Yandere is cool. I hate the Yandere trope, yet I translate this and enjoy it wholeheartedly.

In a Q&A the author said it is misleading to say this is a Yandere/Yuri manga, rather he thinks of it as a parody of the Yandere and Yuri character types... and I agree.

@Everyone

I apologize for having disappeared again. I blame "Monster Hunter" and "A Plague Story". I'm also translating the second Black Lagoon novel and joined the scanlation team for Rengoku no Karma. I'll start translating again next weekend. Peace.

@Lilliwyt Actually, I'm working on my thesis so it might take a while before I come back to this. Although, I admit that I spend at least 3 hours a week on MH :p

Another project is taking me too: the Black Lagoon second light novel. If there's any project I want to see through, it's that. I spend a year working on it, and I'm starting to think I'm ready to release it.

But this is not here nor there. ZHG usually only takes me 2 hours per week between TL and QC. It's just that when you're putting too much effort in IRL activities, you start to gravitate towards low-effort, albeit less rewarding, hobbies like video games.

I'm officially dropping this series. I lost my typesetter again. Probably because I didn't reply to a translation request. Today I tried to address them to say I translated the pages they requested, I found out they blocked me and removed themselves from the group.

No hard feelings. Thank you for your time and excellent work @stop_islamization_of_eu.

If any group would like to pick it, I can translate for them. I won't be looking for a typesetter on my own.

If (and a big IF) I learn to typeset, I'll gladly pick it up again on my own.

Thank you for following. I apologize for the lack of news.

I apologize. At this point of time I'm tired of scanlation. If I ever pick this again it would be because I've learned typesetting. Plus, yesterday I've been reminded that most readers have no intentions of supporting the authors. It makes you wonder if scanlation is even worth the time. My goal from picking this was first and foremost helping the author advertise his manga.

I'm translating a Black Lagoon novel now. Once that's done, I'll reconsider this with other projects in my list: Rengoku no Karma and Futari Seitokai.

The up and down changes between groups was a little jarring. Wish they brought back the group with the goofy little end cards and edited panels. It was an extra page but it's better than knowing the dude who typeset your manga goes by "stop the islamization of the eu"

@LtLoliLewds Well, the group hasn't changed. I just lost my first typesetter when I went on a two-month vacation which turned into a funeral, so I excused myself from working on it for a while. When I came back, he was busy with other stuff. Doing things with him was pretty and we loved every moment of it.

My experience with the second typesetter (stop islamization and whatnot.... Yeah, I was uncomfortable with name too, but there's little I can do about that ) was "interesting" to say the least. When they offered their services, they were basically trying to find a TLer for their projects and they tried to shoehorn me into them because they're doing me a favor. Scanlation drama started to seep in, so I decided to do it by myself.

Now, I'm doing it solo, but I'm busy with my IRL obligations at the moment. I hope I can bring back the "fun" once I come back to TL.

If you know a TLer who wants to be serious about it, I can send them raws. I'll gladly pass on the project.
