So its not a ferry? A local ferry wouldn't have baths and a movie theater in it
Ferries in Japan are way better than you think. I highly suggest looking up some videos on YouTube to get an idea. Some are close to small cruise ships as far as amenities go, with shops, a restaurant or two, and nice public baths.

Check out Kuga's Travel on youtube, he has some great videos on them.

How do the shops even work if there are no employees managing the shops? Is it like a vending machine? Is there magic that prevents people from just taking stuff? What about restocking? Where do the items come from? Does it just magically reappear when someone pays? What if no one pays, do product never appear again? I'm really confused about how the shops are supposed to work there...
Stuff automatically stocks and restocks. There's a self checkout kiosk with a scanner. We don't know about theft countermeasures yet.

I want more chapters like this, and fewer of the political war bullshit.

Am I the only one who thinks it would have been neat if he went further into detail what exactly movies are to people who have no concept of such a thing? Feels like that could have been gleamed for a few more pages.

Perhaps I just like seeing people be amazed by the miracle of modern invention? Because they really are miracles in an almost literal sense, and we should appreciate what we have more.
That kind of thing is basically what I read usekai for, and its crazy how often it just gets glossed over in favor of op magic shenanigans.

I thought the autopilot function of the ships only worked after the MC had visited a location once
:questionblob:
It does work like that, but this city is between the Southern City (where he sold his pepper) and Lucca, in other words they passed it already on the way to Lucca.

Hmm.. I think the payment system is by mana.

It is better than using currency since the poor probably couldn't pay but most isekai population have mana but not everyone have resource/aptitude to use magic.

Anytime people take something and checkout at the counter, it will take their mana instead.

PS: I don't know how it work, just my wishful theory.

Thanks for the chapter 👍.
On a side note do you, as the translator, have a release schedule?
There's no fixed schedule for us to release it, no. It all depends on when there's a typesetter available to work on the next chapter.

The ferries are based off of the Sunrise Japanese ferries... which do have these. There's a lot of youtube videos with trips on them that allows you to see the inside.

These ships are usually for 8~24 hour trips, so its designed with a lot of cruise-like amenities, but more so for short distance trips. The longest ferry trip in Japan is the Taiheiyo Ferry between Hokkaido and Nagoya and is basically a 40 hour trip.

Yeah, I know that the series is literally just “local scrub wows women with modern boats and they treat him like a god for it” but honestly? I’d like to see some of this disconnect.

Like, this chapter Wataru decides that the first movie the girls should watch should be Pirates of the Caribbean. It’s probably the best movie to start them out with - it’s set in a time period close to their civilization - but I would still like to see more than just “they like it”. Does Wataru just tell them the historical significance of age of piracy in our world during the period of 1650-1726 so they have context? Do they feel anything about the subplot of Elizabeth Swann as she tries to escape her fate of being a woman during the period of 1650-1726? Did they, like the movie watchers of our world, enjoy Captain Jack Sparrow’s antics and would love a sequel which features him even more?

Does he dare show them the rest of the trilogy, and how the fourth and fifth films just make a total mess of things? Does he then segue to other films the director of the trilogy made, having to them explain to the girls the cultural significance of Rango? Do the girls go ahead and ask “what’s a Disney”?

For fucks’ sake, you are showing modern blockbusters to women who have never seen anything in their life outside of books and plays. You can’t just drop that shit on us and then segue to something different.
