The 100 Girlfriends Who Really, Really, Really, Really, Really Love You - Ch. 191 - Rentarou's Family's Flowing Soumen

[Teasday]

I honestly wish more translators would do this. It always sounded weird to me adding Japanese honorifics in an English translation.

Me and Alpha go back and forth on this depending on the series, with some you can get away with dropping honorifics without issue. 100 Girlfriends though, would've been a nightmare if we'd dropped them entirely.

Speaking of all this to San or not to San speak, one thing I REALLY HATE is when onee-san or onee-chan is translated into nothingness, like when an onee-san type character talks in the third person and the translators just leave out onee-san and don't even bother translating it into big sis or big sister.

Translators are supposed to translate the language, not remove whatever words they want from the language to make things easier for themselves.

...Right, which is why it's weird if you blindly mistranslate every oniisan and oneesan as "big brother" and "big sister" even when that's not at all what they mean depending on the context. That random old gramps on the street trying to get your attention isn't calling you a big brother, he's calling you a young man, buddy, fella, whatever.

What even was this chapter? 🤣

The idea for this chaper was definitely prefaced to the artist with a "Hear me out ...".

Yeah but I'm not talking about that, I'm talking about when it's clearly an onee-san straight out of an oneexshota practically and the translator decides to just leave out any and all mentions of onee or sister, it's just annoying.

Anyways I've just seen some really trashy translations, and it sucks, especially when the manga is good and I can't even enjoy it because the only person translating it doesn't even seem to possess a basic understanding of anything Japanese or anime or manga related.

Btw I'm not saying your translation is trashy, it's really good. I'm talking about some other translators.

Late to the party, but yes, Rentaro has a saint's patience with that gorilla.
And no, there won't be a new girl in the next chapter.

Nano copying Kurumi was adorable, my god that look on her face is enough to kill. Clearly it was enough to push Mimimi to act, much more efficient that way. Mei has shown us the way of the true ninja, the art of sensing. I also noticed Nano is wearing the same swimsuit she wore way back in the first pool date chapter. Now I have to go back and check the other times we saw everyone in their swimsuits to see if the same applies.

She may be a maid by trade, but in the dark of night she is The Batman a ninja warrior. Sneaking in shadows, eradicating all dust that clings to Hahari’s path. Kusuri is killing that swimsuit she’s wearing, literally it looks filled to burst.

I take it sesame seed sauce on soumen is the equivalent to mustard on burgers. It’s literally all down to personal preference, nothing unusual about it. Momoha’s either got a very active imagination when she’s drunk, or there’s something in the water that’s causing her to hallucinate. Considering how often she drinks, I’m going with the later. Iku is losing more calories than she’s ingesting, and considering she’s swimming agains the current while eating… she’s going to have stomach issues later.

Ahh Momiji is doing the old “hand against the wind/water feels like boobs” trick everyone does at least once when they hear it. Except in her case it’s akin to eating meat flavored chips when surrounded by filet mignon. I can’t help but wonder if Tama is actually capable of catching real fish like a cat does, it would make sense for her to do so.

Hakari you’re so mean, you did that on purpose knowing full well Karane was there to see it didn’t you? Teasing her like that is down right diabolical… I’m not complaining though. Karane… that kind of defeats the whole purpose of what Hakari was doing. Though that boat of soumen is filled with your hopes and dreams, it’s now splattered all over his face so… maybe try feeding him next time. Not in the eye though, especially not at this high speed. Yamame broke the rules, so now the pool shall break itself.

I guess it makes sense the pool would have someone watching to make sure nobody drowns, I imagine the Serious Corporation doesn’t need any more lawsuits than they already have. Rentarou chopping down bamboo shoots with his bare hands is proof enough that the man has become super human. Just you watch, give it time and he shall alone be crowned the Dragon Warrior. He already has the bamboo chopstick style down pat! Hahari was the first to be caught, because she’s the biggest of them all and thus has the most buoyancy.

Looked up soumen restaurants on youtube and they seem really fun (at least, the couple I saw in videos). They send cold noodles to your table via bamboo water chutes and you catch the noodles with your chopsticks, dip them in some sauce, and eat them. It's like one of those conveyor belt restaurants but more direct.
