So, had to wait until this generated, but just letting you guys know with this chapter that I was experimenting with the settings on the machine I use to do initial translations. It had been working generally pretty decently over the last, I dunno, several chapters, but the previous chapter it really wonked out on pronouns again... The current setting I used for this one was okay. Some wonkiness still that I had to fix, including weirdly I noticed on the last page, the panels switched to calling Yamaoka "Yamaguchi" again, which, that hasn't happened in ages.

I'm going to try and have the next chapter up tomorrow instead of Tuesday because I'll be busy that day.

Thank you for your work!

Eggplant is one of those things that I think my house never particularly like to use in cooking, so I don't even know what it taste like. I may have had some food that includes eggplants in restaurants, but I wouldn't have known/recognised it.

So, here's a fun story about me. I hate eggplant. I always have for as long as I can remember. Reason why is that when I was about 2-3, there was a Looney Toons cartoon called "Porky the Rainmaker". There was a moment here:

(The cartoon is in the public domain, so there's no issue reposting it) where eggplants burst to look like eggs cooking. I love eggs. I thought, of course as a three year old that eggplants must taste like eggs... So I begged my mom to buy me some at the grocery store.

Tried them, they did not taste like eggs. Of course since my mom had bought an eggplant, I had to eat it. So, ever since then, I've never been able to stomach eggplant.
