The Perks of Working in the Black Magic Industry - Vol. 3 Ch. 17 - Rivals and Networking

[jimmyclear]

Rivals or sex friends?

I still don't get black magic users.

whats with this stupid political bullshit that keeps getting pegged on at the end of some series lately? I prefer to see people begging for donations than this petty bullshit of who can be the bigger victim and racist. People say its wrong to blame jews (perfect example considering the whole trump thing and 4chan shit) for anything especially when they are such a small number of people on the planet. White people as a whole are few in number compared to all other races, so can the same logic not apply? (hell people make it seem like white people don't fuck over other white people) When white people blame another race for their problems its wrong, but when other races blame white people for their problems it is rarely even seen as wrong, never mind hypocritical

@Akemua man however you wanna rationalize your little butthurt fiasco is up to you.

 

[readingperson]

Hi guys, what's with the drama at the end?

 

[MonsieurQuack]

So anyway, skipping the one page that apparently everyone is getting froth-at-the-mouth over...

Much better translation than ch.16 guys, thanks for the huge improvement.

@jimmyclear
Clearly they just want to make having a rival more fun.

 

[Yadokari]

"Rivals" read as "Sex friends"

@Liquidxlax Spoiler because not really about the chapter and all.

Spoiler

Back on batoto leading up to the most recent US presidential election, there were people hyping up Trump's campaign slogan up until the point he got elected. It started off as meme jokes that eventually progressed to rabid supporters thinking they're in good company.

Almost immediately after, nearly all of that stuff stopped. Probably majority due to it being a past event at that point mind you, but it was at least a notable difference.

I don't doubt there's some subtle behavior altercations in at least some translated works/ the manga community. The types of people that tend to read manga, especially manga of this type, tend to eat it up without much criticizing thought. Because the idea is fitting in; a sense of community. I guess. Whether it's real people or "astroturf", I'm not sure. Crazy people exist everywhere though, and may have a job to capitalize on their crazy.

Then again, this is all my subjective viewpoint. How objectively true or not is near impossible to find out. Unless I guess you are doing the subtle brainwashing and can see your actions making a difference.

...I just thought of it, next US presidential election is in a year. So it might not be too farfetched an idea. But I doubt that's this translator's intention at the very least (but who knows in the future).

In any case though, just remember that the more you dislike something, the more likely you are to be extremely aware of it. And at the time, I did dislike what I saw very much. So also take that how you will.

what's with that last page MLK quote thing

 

[Goretantath]

@Wolvenworks Since most of the talk the "translator" has been doing is about "racisim" and its a quote about "the negro" i'd assume its because the "translator" feels they arent getting enough out of life and wants to take from "white moderates" untill they feel satisfied.. that or just bitch about nothing at the end of each chapter to put a sour tone on such happiness..

@Liquidxlax it seems like i cant go 2 feet without finding a slew of hypocrisy nowadays..

I've seen countless times online how uncomfortable it makes some people to be reminded that Martin had real bite. He may have been a pacifist, but he wasn't passive. He called people on their shit, and because of that he was dismissed as "political"... along with the many far worse worse terms they used for him.

 

[Dibella]

I can't believe this is not hentai.

@Acolytus

Even if you can beat a cockatrice, you still can't beat the cock.

Exactly!

 

[Wolvenworks]

@Goretantath yeah i know. what i don't get is what he's hoping to get by throwing a tantrum at the end of a manga chapter. hell, even twitter would still be a better place to do these kinda race rants

 

[PiakuchuKiller]

this manga's gey. whyd i even scamlate this.

but not as gey as @whissard

 

[Akemua]

@Sedition - Looks like you're more butthurt than I am, lmfao.

 

[monkey123]

Pikachu gey. Loli is nice, but thiccness is even better! 😁

 

[sedition]

@Akemua that's rich coming from a guy that had to block an entire scan group because reading a single page of text triggered him too hard.

 

[NorthAway]

Something something 13% something something 50%

 

[havelmom]

will ch16 have a retranslation?
