This smells like "the feeling we all must endure"
Please tell me that is not the case.

You mean like several "coincidentally" bisexual/lesbian characters modeled after capital sins being grouped together and ending up having occasional sex with each other? Seems unlikely.

At first the Scottish was extremely distracting, but once I got used to it it was actually quite nice. Would love to see a Scottish comeback

The Scottish dialect was a good and creative choice, certainly better than how dialects are usually treated! Since people are having trouble, maybe add a short dictionary for the phrases people have the most problems with.

Translation notes would be helpful for whenever the heavy-scottish non-english words are used.

Occasionally
During the original sin, they practically fuck every hour.
And then when they get used to it, it's not like they stop doing it, they do not do it occasionally, they do it every day or every time they have a chance.
To put it objectively: those who are supposedly lovers are actually the official couple, while what is supposedly the official couple is a sentimental friend at the most.

Dealing with these little pests is a nightmare. Remember to keep your homes clean!
Also, you're doing an awesome job with the translation. Coming from a non-native English speaker, I'm having a really great time reading this :D

Chapter 2.5 needs a horror tag.

I can endure the Scottish accent. It's not the end of the world. But when people are talking about including translation notes for your translation? To me, that's kind of a sign that the cart may be in front of the horse.

I definitely side with DYWYPI on this one - trying to shoehorn in English accents in place of Japanese dialects has always been a distractingly bad thing to me. As s/he rightly points out, an accent brings with it a lot more implications than just "different way of speaking than standard." It conjures a whole host of cultural connotations and prejudices (in the neutral dictionary sense of that word). There is never a direct analogue between what a particular speech affectation in Japanese connotes and any English accent. I definitely think it does more harm than good to a character no matter how integral it is to the characterization.

In this particular case I would much rather see her just speak notably more casually/coarsely in standard English during her "dialect times." That alone is enough to communicate effectively enough the dichotomy between her "put-together, type-A overachiever" work personality and her incongruously rough "real" (for lack of a better word) self.

FWIW I won't be reading this translation for the above reasons, but props at least to the translator for giving it this much thought. I just really disagree with the result.

Never before has the Scottish accent had a more fitting place in this manga

It's a typical Japanese thing, as cockroaches seem to viewed as the most unclean thing ever. I think the only cockroach manga/anime I can think of where they're uncensored is Gokicha (moe cockroach) and Terraformers (gachi cockroach).

Now I'm just kinda imagining how censored the first Men in Black movie would be over there.

Y'all must have HATED the father in Flying Witch.

Actually no, since his only purpose is for comic relief and he almost always gets translated be some bystanders.

Btw: Are there new chapters coming to dynasty? Scans are already at chap 40+...
