just like the people in the other comments below mine, i was also afraid of some (or even all) of the cast dying due to the author's previous work's notoriety. so i was kinda stumped that it went the cutesy/ecchi way, even 20 chapters in.
thanks to you translating the author's notes and revealing his intentions for the series, i'm really relieved. thanks
@Ardesc and your merry coworkers/group members.
hope i don't jinx it and all the cute girls walk away alive at the end of the work...
