Lmao there's no escaping sex workers for Kakeru

 

[azudai96]

I’m just sick of the pommy slang.

Bit shit innit.

 

[Mogima]

Well... That's normal isn't it?

The real friends were the sex workers we met along the way.

So is it just me or dae think his mom is that Princess Ruri one, right?

 

[Mangamoz]

RIP this dude's sanity when he finds out his crush is a prostitute too.

So what would you do?

• Render Tokyo slang as some other slang, say Boston, Glasgow, Jamaican, Sydney?
• Not use slang at all and act as though the characters speak in standard Japanese when they aren't?
• Not use slang but provide a translation note with each character describing the type of language that he uses?

Yep thinking the same, the building her own company part makes it seem possible.

This manga would be dogshit without the slang. The author is braindead. Simple as bruv.

This was my immediate thought, with how the author kept obscuring her face.

 

[Chiboku]

at this point I'm just reading this for The translators notes

Speaking as a Brit who has plenty of friends who speak this way- yeah, I agree. It's really off-putting and takes me out of the story.

 

[icecreatie]

for real

 

[Meeiiiz]

Whaaaaa I wonder who his mom is. I bet she knows her already lol

 

[goarachnidlaser]

Typo at pg 18: "youre phone".

 

[silverpetricof]

His mom made it happen going from sex work to using that as a means to found a company. Neither of them should be a ashamed. The world is tough and did what she had to do to survive in it and she ended up thriving instead.

I guess no one wants to say that their mom is (or was) a sex worker, but it could be worse. She could be a sex worker AND a downright abusive parent (like Honoka's). But she's clearly very sweet.

Thanks for the translation.

So he's gonna inherit mommy's company...

Fwiw, I’m Australian. You poms suck at cricket, beer, and pies.

Plus, I’m not here to fuck spiders let alone punch on with you limp wristed chavs.

Calm ya tits and fuck yourselves.
