This is not middling, this is almost bottom of the barrel tier, incomprehensible at times. Also, a good translation of chapter 12 literally came out yesterday and the rest is being actively worked on (turns out quality takes a little time, it doesn't come out in 24 hours, shocker). This is just a snipe for no reason.
Now more (maybe even most) readers will only ever experience a bad translation of what was supposed to be a good story with good writing.
What an overreaction. This is NOT bottom of the barrel.

I dont know if this chapter was "National Geographic: Momose Akira Special" or "Netflix True Crime: The Boy Who Fell"

holy cute but i wanna see some romance progress


I mean hey he is doing his best and at least we get a translation in the first place
"did his best" or "tried his best" both sound nice, but you really dont wanna see it in your testimonial. we already had two other guys with WAY better translations than this, so would be a shame if we lost those because of yet another guy who thinks they need to also take a shot at some half-assed translation.

Good scanlation finally comes out yesterday
Snipers who can't even string together a correct English sentence: guess it's my time to shine!

I wish snipers would realize how they are ruining this manga for the thousands of readers who don't read on mangadex and will only ever see the bad translation.

I also wish readers would be more critical of horrendous, unreadable English. It always shocks me when people look at such poor English writing and legitimately think there is nothing wrong with it. Just because someone is doing something for free doesn't mean they have to be patted on the back and put on a pedestal. You can have standards, it's okay.
a-fucking-men

this baffles me every single time. "they do it for free, don't complain" - bro, others do it for free as well and a THOUSAND times better. i stopped reading this shit after "pridefull" and "dear". judging by the comments, that was a great decision.

I'll be frank that it is a little discouraging to see something worse go out before we get the chance to finish something that we're trying to make look and read good for everyone

Oh
I'm working on it with a couple other people that are smart and talented and cool.
I started working on 13 but now I dunno if we gonna do this or just skip to 14
no, pls finish your work, I'm sorry if what I did took out any kind of motivation in your group, I'm deeply sorry for this. If you want me too I can just delete this TL. I had made it with good intentions, but it seems it has only got a fight going. So if u want me to, I will just ask for the removal of this TL

I mean, from the sounds of it people are probably going to reread the versions you put out anyway, since despite how much I’ve been standing up for Vuagunny and continue to believe the shit they’ve been getting has been undeserved for the most part, it’s still also true that your versions have been the highest quality ones to come out so far.

Again, I'm deeply sorry, wasn't my intention, I will ask for it to be taken down, I'm sorry I have discouraged anyone of your group.

I don’t think you need to feel too bad about it. It seems pretty clear you didn’t have any malicious intentions or anything, you just wanted to translate a manga you liked.
