Dude, I don't mind what you're doing since it's very nice that you picked this manga up but please stop putting the TN notes mid chapter, especially since you've started putting them WITHIN the speech bubbles (which is just a unwritten Faux pas), you can just put them at the end of the chapter like almost all translators do, in that way you will be able to express what you want and we don't get bothered by TL notes.
The problem is that this TL has nothing to say. People were complaining, rightfully, about excessive notes in previous chapters, to the TL decided to act like a petty child and do this. Didn't even have the tiny amount of wit that it'd take to write anything actually funny in there, so they just wrote "your mom" in most of them. That combined with the TL's tenuous-at-best grasp of the English language is enough reason for me to just block this group.

Thanks for the TL, but man you need to work on past, present, future Grammer.

Planned is past tense, he didn't PLAN to confess. Shoved is past tense, did she just SHOVE something in my mouth is present, short-circuited is past tense, he was having? A short-circuit or more correct would be he was short-circuiting (current action.)

You should take the time you're spending adding TL notes to proof read. Things like "always glance away, I'm being so close" should be "always glances away, and I'm so close."

Also you spell Rendaiji/Rendaji two different ways.

I thought that teacher that screamed about the bear outside was just being a bro that knew what was going down, but then there really was a bear cub.

I literally didn't notice the translator notes until people in the comments pointed them out, I never read them in other manga so I just became so accustomed to ignoring them my brain just doesn't register them

Is it just me or are there more TL notes than last time...

(Please no more...)
He straight up went and put the TL notes, which are not notes on the translation, just lol comments inside the speech bubbles, so now his commentary are now part of the dialogue of the characters in the manga

When it happens to a straight doodoo poop shit ass manga, i am fine with it, because it enhances the experience by distracting you from the garbage plot being shown, but this manga is actually okish, so it just feels bad

Don't forget that he did this in response to people's feedback saying that the TL notes were a bit much. He intentionally made his work worse just to spite the people who thought he should keep his personal opinions to the end page. That type of person, in my opinion, should not be translating manga (or anything of the sort), because they simply don't have any pride in their work itself.
