Well curiosity won out so I took a peek at the raws since the final one was free.
Thank fucking god, it looks like a Happy End.

No thanks, man.
To be fair, DeepL can save a lot of time for translators. Instead of writing the whole thing yourself, you just need to check if DeepL did it right and fix the parts it butchered, which is much faster.

The problem is, if you're going to use DeepL anyway, just translate directly from the original language. Even if you can't verify the accuracy because you don't understand Japanese, you can still guess how well it did from the Chinese translation. Unless you don't understand Chinese either, in which case I agree: no thanks, man.

Agreed. But it seems obvious the translator is fluent in chinese which is why he opted for the double, as noted in the last page of this chapter.
my fault man i speak but not read natively
Thanks for the hard work boss, imo the translation flows well. No reason not to use ML for rote tasks like these with some human QC

Honestly I don't know why it ended up like this. There wasn't a reason for those two to run away. He could've just brought her back to his mom and things would be, like... at least going in a good direction.

This excuse is only valid if the translator can’t handle the original language.

But DeepL (the translator) can do Japanese -> English, so that’s no reason to double-translate. And once it’s translated, it’s just a matter of comparing the result to the Chinese version.

At this point, all they did was needlessly accumulate inaccuracies and mistakes for absolutely zero benefit.

Pretty sure he did? It was a mitigating factor in his sentencing (along with his young age) which is why he got out fairly quickly. He just doesn't open up about the full sequence of events because he feels its his fault that his sister died and that he could have done something more.
I'm talking about his colleagues they might not know the specifics of the case.

And I get that but it still feels a little contrived. Feel guilty about your sister dying sure don't feel guilty for killing the guy that did it tho and don't feel like a murderer because of it

The thing is, what could he have done if his sister didn't say anything to him, or anyone for that matter and for obvious reasons?? MC needs deep therapy if he wants to get rid of that guilt of his, he did nothing wrong

I don't think "yeah I killed him, but he deserved it for raping a child" would really hold much water when he's been spotted hiding a young girl in his apartment. Perhaps telling them that he was avenging his sister would win some sympathy otherwise, but not with Shiika there and rumours swirling that he's a pedophile.

They're both traumatised and mentally ill, dude...
