Great pick up, gang.

Gorgeous chapter from start to finish, really blown away by how amazing Matsumoto's ink work is here. Cannot wait for more.

Thank you! The original Japanese dialogue is written in a watered down Saga dialect; a rural region thats dialect is known for being one of the most incomprehensible. I come from Yorkshire and have gone over scripts to add the accent before (for Man Gatarou's manga where the roughness of a balding British Northerner felt fitting), and me and the translator thought it would be a suitable and interesting equivalent for the Saga dialect.
