I dunno if this was mentioned, but isn't Lily Love like really popular in Thailand right now or did that just happen because one of the scanlators linked the raws?

Haven't read them yet, but sure saw some spoilers. Hella yeah.

Aren't there LOTS OF GAY PEOPZ in thailand??
Would it be that bad to out oneself?... O_o

DONUT, GO FOR IT, CONFESS!!! >~<

Google tells me that they're not so tolerant to their own, but it's good for tourists?

I'm tired and probably read it wrong, but holy crap, a day or so Nezchan? I had no idea people could be so sure of themselves, kind of makes me feel bad.

Whilst I'm not exactly an authority on good friendship (because to the few unfortunate enough to consider me such, I have been a terrible one, as I'm sure you can imagine), I think it's a little much to condem the friend for focusing on supporting rather than what's negative about coming out? A worldly friend would be nice, but one with less forsight isn't bad.

Not to mention, Donut actually lives in that culture so she's probably got some idea of how people as a rule see homosexuality. I doubt her friend would be telling her much she didn't know (assuming her friend is even more knowledgeable about it). A big part of what she's saying here is "You won't lose me as a friend", which is important.

And ffs, any of the queer folks here, would potential negatives make you stop being queer? How would telling her about homophobia (again, assuming she didn't know) change Mew any more than it would change the people here?

I doubt it would change Mew, but a lot of gay people in asia hide themselves and marry the oposite sex for various reasons, like Bridesmaid.

"I don't want to spoil our friendship with random hugs"

"Let's ignore her completely from now on. I'm sure it will not spoil our friendship".

Oy... are you stupid?

That's what I always think when I see this.

It is very popular in Thailand (1 500 000+ views on ookbee, it's first manga which reached 1M there I think). And Ratana didn't expect so many fans who will buy her volume. But I think it was obvious because story is great :D

They promoted this on Thailand Comic Con
http://three-musqueerteers.tumblr.com/post/117764703971/look-who-is-on-thailand-comic-con-mew-from
and there was also a cosplay:
http://three-musqueerteers.tumblr.com/post/118269157726/lily-love-cosplay-mew-donut-on-thailand-comic

Also it's not like that Lily Love is her first manga or something. Thai people knew her art before (but not yuri - from yuri genre she made 1 one shot (if I remember correctly, but maybe there was few xD) and LL as longer series)

About views, of course it is also connected with us ^///^ (I will "humbly" say). International fans also are giving views there.

And well... this project was just a random idea. Kibufu (TN), Coco (QC) and me are in the same group on FB and one time Kibufu posted raws there. And I somehow told her that she could translate this for us because manga looks promising and art is gorgeous XD. She was excited but wasn't sure if her English is on right level for this job so Coco said she can help her and I decided to edit this. Then we contacted Ratana and this is how this whole thing started :D

I'm just glad there was no faffing about or needless drama. I don't think I could deal with 6 chapters of "but it's impossible for a girl to like a girl!" or "we can't be together!" nonsense. Realistic, perhaps, but also tedious to read about when the conclusion is foregone anyway. :v

Even if it's not Yuri, someone need to translate her other works, and that oneshot is Bridesmaid or other story?

Other, but unfortunately we can't translate them. They are licensed :( so we don't wanna make trouble for Ratana (because copyrights are in publisher) :(

Soumds awesome :D I wish I could read the language... it would make things way easier. I will learn it! Like I learned english just from scratch. (School English is useless) Tell Ratana we love her sooooooooooo much. I could continue this xD
Luv from German fans!

But would it really cause trouble? It's not like they'll lose money, who in here would buy something in thai? And licensed mangas in japan are translated all the time, she didn't ask or said it could be translated, it would be your decision, I want to read it all... (iAi)

Me too T_T I'm the only one in the team that have no clue how to read this snake-shifted-letters T_T so I'm the last one who know the plot T_T I'm behind with the story as you guys xD (ok... not so behind because of editor-spoiler-privileges and my intuition which sometimes drives Ratana crazy because I'm guessing future events too often xD)

Tell Ratana we love her sooooooooooo much

You can do this by yourself :D just go to her Facebook :D (or maybe she will read this here, because she's also checking Dynasty :D)

I know, me too ;^; but I can't help on this. Maybe in future it will change but for now we have Lily Love and one-shots that aren't licensed

Yeah, she knows English (how could I talk to her if I don't know Thai xD? And she doesn't speak Polish either xD).
But... you prefer her to sit here with us and talk or you prefer her to draw new chapters and stories :P Remember that mangaka's work is very time-consuming :P

Not really... It's been months since last time I used Facebook, and weeks for email or anything else, just Dynasty on my phone, my depression is a little bad lately so it's been some time since last time I did anything, going to her Facebook is something that I want to do for some time, just didn't have enough will power to do it yet...

Ah, youth! There she is all "NO, Wait! I must catch that bus!!!"
. . . Lass, she's only going to be gone three days. But you can't tell that to someone who's young and in love. ;)

Three whole days! That's like a decade for normal folks.
