After seeing it for the 100+ time I just have to say. Either the same damn guy translates basically every manga or manga translators are all cursed to mysteriously have sick mothers 
.
But seriously I'm honestly getting sick of these guys trying to pull the sympathy card to squeeze money. I can respect people wanting money for their effort but don't be so god damn lazy you use the same stock lie EVERYONE ELSE USES to con money out of people. Even if they are just doing it as a joke again IT"S THE SAME MESSAGE YOU SEE ALMOST EVERYWHERE! It's lazy and stupid and if they had an ounce of self respect they'd shut the hell up and just ask for donations normally.
I"m sorry but this kind of thing has always annoyed me. Like the charities who fill their adds with pictures of hungry kids to try to manipulate people with sympathy. It's shameless and scummy IMO and I've just run out of patience seeing it on at least half the manga I read. The translator will probably not read this so this comment is probably pointless but I just wanted to get it off my chest.

@Metazoxan Its actually the same guy/group translating so many manga. Kirei cake.
You can check what they translate by simply clicking the group name and see how much they release per day and how many manga you followed from them. You'd be surprised.
Now whether his mother sickness is true or not I don't know but you can always ignore it if it annoyed you so much, the text not even blocking significant panel most of the time.
But it still weird though seeing how in a group work only one person keep asking for personal donation.

Also I have donated money before to people and projects I love, but if people think mixing sympathy and stopping at cliff hangers will get them money from me ... nope.

If its anything like the rest of the series...
He'll show up because of a feeling. One shot the fox like a trash mob. Then ask where the 'powerful god' is.
All while the girl stares at him like a lunatic.
That's my guess.

@obsidianpassion
do you have the raws after chapter 8?
because I don't have them, so why would the translator have them?
let's say he waits until there is no more "cliffhanger" before publishing the chapters, there will be assholes to complain that he hasn't released anything for months and in addition another translation team took the opportunity to resume the translation in its place, because it did not translate anything
@jiiminn
You are a member of the "Striptease" translation team
I read "Isekai Ojisan" in what you translate, it's only in chapter 13.5 yet there is up to chapter 22 in the raws
So I’m not sure it’s welcome to write "slow updates" when you keep us waiting
Especially that you don't even translate half the pages that Kirei Cake translates per month
@Metazoxan
What I find crazy is that you do not know that all the chapters that you read for free with this message are translated by the same person.
you really have no respect for the people who feed your passion
When I think that there are really translation teams who keep translations waiting while there are chapters to translate.
And you, you complained about a translator who translates as soon as he has the raws ...
Besides, I'm going to teach you all something, he's not the one who publishes here, he has a website
You shouldn't even be able to read that here, if it's ok it's only that he hopes well-meaning people will come to his website and maybe some people will thank him financially for his work, people with a soul (and money), not capitalists in action with a sharing communist mentality when it suits them
Frankly, criticize someone who asks for money for the work he does, I find it ridiculous, especially that nobody forces you.
Your soul is tormented by his request and you try to justify yourself of giving him nothing by attacking him personally.
This is my explanation for your problem.
Me too sometimes I say the same kind of thing on translation teams, but I do it in my head (and in the case of this translator, I have never been able to give myself this kind of reason, because it is always up to my expectations), because I know very well that it's just reasons that I give myself to justify myself to not give money that I do not have.
If I could afford it I would give.

You need to get your eyes checked because nothing after that first sentence had ANYTHING to do with what I said. First of all who said I have no respect for translators? It's because I respect translators that I don't look well on the idea of potentially lying about a sick mother to get people to donate. Even if this one is legit I still can't say I approve of how manipulative it feels for one guy in the group to just mention every chapter how he wants mother to "support his sick mother". Although if the sick mother is for real I will apologize if I sounded harsh towards her.
Also when someone translates has nothing to do with it. I can understand why some groups store up chapters before releasing. It helps them maintain a regular release schedule even if they can't translate regularly. So I'm not going to shame translator groups for doing that even if a part of me does want to see the next chapter right away.
Let me teach you something in return. No one needs a high and mighty hero wannabe acting like he needs to right the wrong of the world over a little criticism. If my knowledge is wrong you are free to correct it and if I come across as too harsh then it's fine to tell me so. But don't try to use pretentious talk like "teach you" and don't give me that "You shouldn't even be able to read that here". Because that is the biggest load of shit I've ever seen. Know what I wouldn't be doing if this series wasn't here? Not read it because I would not be searching across the internet for every translator site out there. I do try to visit some translators from time to time but outside of one's I especially know it's because of sites like this that I can even find works of other groups.
Also I never said he shouldn't ask for donations. So don't fucking accuse me of a communist mentalist with no soul. I just think it would be more proper to not try to garner pitty mentioning a sick mother everytime. If they want donations to support their efforts they should say so and if they've got a sick mother they should do what they can to support her. But they shouldn't try to guilt trip US into supporting THEIR sick mother. Which again is assuming all these claims are genuine.

everything you wrote is only valid on the possibility that it is a lie
If you feel pity it's great, but it's no reason to accuse someone of being a liar.
I don't see why he shouldn't talk about his situation, the authors do it too, why shouldn't he talk about it?
Be honest with yourself
'Cause you don't want to feel guilty?!
But that’s no reason to forbid someone from talking about their situation

yeah, this is getting so damn obvious now, and inserting the "dense protagonist" snipes in the story itself doesnt stop it from being stupid. Im starting to lose interest in this series, but just like every other isekai, it starts out strong and falls flat on its face when it needs to walk.

@boag I guess it's a lot cheaper to pay "writers" that just have to copy-paste a template and then substitute words: naked man/smartphone/onsen/the strongest X/slow life etc.
Most likely some actually competent ghostwriter prepares the initial idea and then when the audience is hooked they let out the copy-pasta galore. Kinda like hentai covers - where the artist that draws the cover doesn't even have to have a work in the volume.
