Watashi no Kokoro wa Oji-san de Aru - Ch. 36

This is the first time in well over a eecade I've truly felt embarrassed to be a part of this community.

If this is really your first exposure to people complaining about a bad translation you definitely haven't been paying attention for the last eecade.

This community isn't even a decade old lmao.

the translation seems decent to me, and I don't mind the poor quality.
better than AI slop, that's for sure.
have some heart people when someone actually translates, even if they're sniping a bit.

Now off to the official site and pretend I can read the pretty shape cause it's probably better than this translation...
I was hyped to see PersonalistX drawing at the end


and what we get not even a tl note about why the snipe and quality

Okay I'm the tranlator dude here and I'm commenting cuz I'm genuinely confused, what's up with the hate? First time translating so idk about translating manners but what do you mean by sniping? Google says its taking another translators work, but I did this by hand with MS paint, litterally even tried to redraw some lines cuz japanese is vertical and english is not. Pretty sure its allowed to have multiple groups tranlating a single manga, ive seen it before so idk why so hostile? Its not like im stopping him from uploading or anything and I'm not doing anything to hinder anyone else so im a bit confuse, help me understand

Yeah, sorry if you took my comment about the raws badly. It was intended as a light teasing but may have just piled up with the rest.

As others said, though it's not forbidden, it's usually viewed in a bad light to translate an already active project, especially when the quality is inferior. As for the raws quality, I'd advise you to take them from the official websites or aggregators like love4u, rawkuma and soraraws, by downloading the images instead of screen printing them. You'll have a far better base to work with by doing this.

Wild that this is the first time you've seen sniping discussion since you've been around for an eecade

Nah, just the pure unadulterated shittiness to a new scanlator trying their hand at it. This is a hobby, not a job. People spewing vile abuse in here need to go touch grass for a bit. We are (hopefully) human beings behind these screens.
