I don't mean to sound ungrateful or anything by any means, because being able to read this manga at all is really nice, but I truly believe the current group could use someone to proofread their work, because a lot of sentences feel super awkward to read.

You're more than welcome to give advice on the sentences. I mean this in a genuine way.

My main problem is how stiff the sentences read. It looks like you're simply doing literal translations which makes the characters feel bland. They're teenagers (or at least one of em is even if the rest are pretending), they should talk in more relaxed ways, if that makes sense.

This is probably due to 1) when working with two languages simultaneously, the other language inevitably influences my English at the moment, 2) I have read too many archaic literature and my language is casually very formal. I cannot guarantee that they will be thoroughly fixed next time because, if I'm being honest, I have a life besides translating manga that begins pressing on me recently. I'll still try, though, since this is one of my favourite series that I care about.
I will note that part of it is probably also deliberate. Miko and Shiori are youkais who lived for hundreds of years, and Shiori is specifically new and strange to the human world's customs. Hinako, mean while, is unusual and stoical for her age. At least for this chapter, the only person I feel like would work with the standard relaxed teenage speech is Tsubaki, who is also a few hundreds years old.

FINALLY MAYBE WE CAN HAVE GEX NEXT

Fuck it I ship them

Thank you so much for the translation!
I'm edging my bets now: the lady that saw through the tanuki's disguise is the human that ate Shiori's flesh and became immortal. And she's going to be a really big problem.

if this is true then the next arc will be very important for both Shiori and Hinako. for Shiori, like Miko in this arc, she will take care of her own mistake in the past and its effect for today. and for Hinako to know what kind of person Shiori was back then and to determine what kind of relationship she makes with Shiori going forward.

Well this changes everything, you have no good reason to be so hostile against humans

Hope? Bud things get more problematic and complicated by the chapter, with every resolved storyline 3 more knots form

 

[Asheron]

This arc was good to humanize Miko. If fish-woman is going to end up with FMC, then hopefully she gets a similar character development. I like her playfulness but she too often comes across to unserious with her feelings.

Damn I think the tanuki wanted to be friends with Hinako 😢
