M-kki Kareshi wa Sunao ni Narenai - Oneshot

[MangaDex]

 

[Thrembs]

Well.
I won’t be reading this, as I’m working on the official translation, and don’t wanna bite on your work, but the few bubbles on the first page I saw are very different translations. Different approaches. I go more idiomatic. Neither is wrong, per se.

just me, my kid’s been home a lot (I do not need an 11yo seeing this!), and dlsite gives you crap tools, so it’s taken a minute.
I have all the dialogue done as of last week.
Proofreading, improving retouching. I’m redrawing bits using bezier curves based on four points on a circle! It’s all flat shading.
How am I to clean something that uses tone when I can’t copy from the image?!
Why must I be a perfectionist?!

Eh, the next chapter will be faster. I’ve somehow gotten decent at this madness.

GOSH DARN do I love this! Tryna act like he’s just a bottom and not a sub 😂 tsss.
What’s she supposed to get out of you riding cowboy if she’s not allowed to move? Watching?

Best chapter is still their first time. (How did they wait 6 years before doing the naughties?!)

 

[Thrembs]

Well, I just submitted the finished product (best I could with the tools and my time).
Someone else got there first, but much like mangadex multiple translators for a single work are supported.
Eh, I didn’t ask for money.

I gotta say, this one is… ummmm wonky.
“I think I called a car rental”.
“I remember getting in a taxi”

“You’re standing the wrong way”
“That’s the wrong spot”

“If it’s fine we can continue like this”
”we can do this whenever you want”

“we might as well go all the way”
”can we do it like this?”

“Your going to cum, right?”
”are you ready?”

“You know what’s coming, right?”
”do you know what’s inside you right now?”

The whole “I hate this” exchange is really hard to translate into English, but she asks him if he’s actually asking for more.

“No matter how many times I tell you to…”
”You can do it as hard as you want, no matter what I say” he’s giving consent for some pretty intense play.

“Good reaction”
”too hard”

“I don’t have the strength!” That’s from the first draft, so it gets a pass. It was hard for me to figure out, too.
”I can’t relax [my asshole]…!” I went with “it” and assume people would know ”it” referred to the sphincter. The sound effects around it really help make it clear.
He says “don’t pull it out, yet”
then “ngaaah don’t push it in”
the very thought of the friction makes me shudder.

“We still have time…”
alright, from the top, to the end of that internal monologue, from memory:
“Sometimes
i get the urge to fuck him so hard he screams.
What would his face look like
what kind of sounds would he make
well, it wouldn’t mean anything if he didn’t want it, so I won’t.”

Pretty much everything else is just a matter of opinion.

Is this another re-translation? The first draft was done JP>CN>EN, so it makes sense to be off a bit.

I reaaaaaaally like this little manga, and care about it being accessible to people in a accurate, relatable and natural-sounding way.

I‘m super gay (just ask my wife!), so I’m not reading this to get off. I just think it’s… great.

There is so much character development and their relationship grows and deepens as they sort out their dynamic after being together but not sexually active for YEARS.
The complex he had about being “cute”, a certain close call in his sophomore year, the rocky start to their relationship…
The fact that they’re able to comfortably and joyfully engage in this specific sort of sexual relationship is emotionally moving for me.
The “kiss me” scene is so sweet and heartwarming. Healthy communication. Respecting his needs. Both enjoying the moment…
I think it’s beautiful.

I know it’s smut, but sometimes smut is art, and sometimes art is smut.

A good translation requires being a good writer.

I'll wait for the official.

Need this in my life

She sucks at after-care.

STOP DOMMING HIM.

There is an official one on desire.
it’s just kinda literal.

I gave the fuck up. DLSite never gave me a chance to correct my errors for a long-ass time.
That’s what I get for trying to do everything myself for my first attempt.
No friends who’d be down for that, because I’m old, and any attempts I’ve had with joining an existing group has resulted in people being shits, or underaged (no, I won’t participate in adult content with 14yos, thank you).

Weebs. No.

yeah even after how many years I still cannot help but feel as if she is just using him for her pleasure and nothing else she fails to be properly gentle even if he asks her to and like something feels off although I still love this manga

I think she’s self-centered and selfish, but that there’s something there.
They just need friggin therapy. Like, a lot.
The codependency is real.

Not even close to enough progress, but he’s over his complex about being “cute”, she’s less possessive (low bar…), he stands up for himself.

I do kinda wish he hadn’t immediately shown his hand on being a sub after making the excellent point that bottoming and subbing are different.

Yeah they definitely do need therapy but this oneshot is like 5 or 6 years later so I was expecting more progress, I gues you're right that she is "less" possessive and the guy seems over the complex but it still makes me feel uncomfrotable the way she treats him. I think the sub part was funny, of course they are different but it was kinda clear that he was more submissive than he is a bottom

Well, he was immediately into penetration (the chapter where he has an orgasm but not bound is their first time. It’s more obvious in Japanese), but not into going hard yet.

It’s also of note that they waited 5+ years before they had sex.

Also, I am fairly certain that she had experience with girls before they started dating. Or maybe they break up for a while?

oh yeah the latter part is probable she did sya something about it's not the same as inserting to a girl, however she may have also been referencing the sex they had which was not pegging. If they broke up and got together then it somehow feels more toxic for me I don't know why. Also, not tlaking to him about seeing him with a girl and isntead trying to take unconsentual pictures of him as punishment was so fucking toxic of her

Well, she was just trying to put it in the wrong place.
“That’s the wrong spot…”
“Ah, it’s harder than with girls. So let’s SHOOP”
Also, she knows how to… move.
And positions and stuff.

That takes practice.

“Ah, it’s harder than with girls. So let’s SHOOP”

yeah that is more probable what I meant like maybe she was referencing herself when she was talking about "girls", and teaching him like how that position would not work for that hole?

Yeah, it’s a thing lost in translation. Subtle things here and there.
“Oh, you’re still tight, huh? It is hard to move…”
“hard to move” is a relative term when you’re still able to pound like that.

I could help you. I want to take part in translating too but I'm bad at languages the only thing I know is how to clean up and edit. Oh and drawing.

Maybe.
I have had few good experiences with the fandom past a couple conversations that petered out BEFORE I could find out they were into shota or fucking fourteen and the conversation was about hardcore BL and I'm allcaps in panic because I don't need my FBI agent getting serious
