Forum › It's Your Fault I've Been Ruined as an Elite discussion
Oh, looks like this got approved. I've been translating this webnovel for the past few months though it hasn't quite found its audience yet and I thought Dynasty-Scans might be worth trying.
I've actually translated 53/70 chapters or roughly 7/9 parts though I only formatted the first part for Dynasty-Scans and will upload the other ones later. For the other parts, they're on wattpad for now:

I was hoping to have it hosted somewhere other than wattpad but I've been too busy with work to get around to that. If I do manage that, I'll edit this post to include other links. This story can get rather heavy at times, but I definitely didn't regret reading it when I got to the end so I hope some of you will be able to enjoy it as well.
Thank you for translating! I am excited to read it :)

Happy to see more text here. You might want to increase font size a little in the upload because at its current size, I think it's a bit hard on the eyes.
a leftover "I" in page 52, also.
I was worried if I would have time to support Mizuno, but I there was...

Dynasty actually shrank the pages. Is the text easier to read if you click the resize button and read it at the original size? I'll request a fix for page 52 after I get the other chapters converted as well.
Yeah it is, you might want to reference the other works in the novel tag to account for the resizing.
There were a few other similar leftovers I noticed in the chapters after, but I forgot to write them down, sorry... I'm guessing you're working on it completely on your own so it's easy to miss those and might be a good idea to give them one more read as you convert. It's mostly leftovers from changing the sentences and one where you used "his" to refer to one of the girls.
It's not the sort of work I'd usually read but at least until up the point I stopped, I do quite enjoy how Haruki's own obsession with Asuka is visible from the start and how once she comes into play, whatever interest Haruki has in others shifts from being about what they have to provide her to making it completely about Asuka, and sometimes without her being aware of it lol. No thoughts on the work itself as a whole yet, though yeah, the initial focus on Haruki's crush on Okubo might put some off, but once that was over and Asuka started showing some... hints of maybe being a stalker, it started getting nicer so I'll continue later.

It might be easier to just make an epub or pdf when you're done with it all, cause yeah wattpad and dynasty have kind of shitty ui.
I did find your translation posted on another site, which has a dark background option and you can mess around with the font more easily, which is why I'm reading it there, but I assume you didn't put it on there, so thought you should know.

I do have a PDF ready and the pages on Dynasty are converted from that, so I can share that when I'm done after I adjust some details.
I'm aware that there are aggregators and I don't really mind them that much. They probably don't have any updates I make after posting, but I don't think that hurts the readability too much.
I actually liked this a lot more than I expected. I even thought I'd give wattpad a try, but I didn't really like the formatting there, so I'm a bit conflicted now. I want to see the continuation, but I'd much rather do it in this format. I regard to the text size, it seems normal to me. Are people reading this on a phone perhaps? I could see how it would appear small in that case. I find phone screens too small for manga, so I always use a tablet or PC for Dynasty, anyway.
On a side note: Is this really yandere? I didn't get that impression so far and I'm not sure I'm interested in that kind of development...

I'll try to get the rest on wattpad over here in the weekend. I modified all the text in the first part so it's a bit bigger than the initial version I uploaded.
The author tagged this as yandere. This is probably because one of the characters can get rather obsessive, though not outright violent so it's probably not to the extent that you'd imagine whenever you normally see this tag. Both characters have their own mental baggage to deal with.

More updates! I read everything that was available on Wattpad. Didn't mind the format, but after a while, it told me to log in to read more. I think it's nicer to read here.
Agreed that this isn't really yandere.
As far as the chapter goes, I much prefer Miya's straightforwardness as opposed to Mizuno's teasing and head games. Aren't you all too old for that? That said, Miya went way too far here. It's a bit of a bummer.

I think that this story was alright at first, but as it progressed and started having more social commentary (Idk what else to call that) on it, it started to sound like the author didn't really put enough time into their research so it feels like "baby's first time talking about oppression", and while that would have worked well if it was limited to Haruki herself, it kind of extends over other characters which means it's probably coming from the author themself. And well, that scene when Kiyo is first introduced was quite transmisogynistic with the text immediately jumping to "You see that woman? That's a guy actually." and despite not being transfem myself, made me uncomfortable because that wasn't necessary at all, and her being the only character to make vulgar jokes like that puts her together with the other characters who harass the protagonists sexually in my opinion, and that's not very nice. That chapter kind of soured the whole thing for me and there's this undertone that separates her from femininity even if the character is bigender.
I'm not saying it's absolutely Bad, but it could have been a lot better if the author had spent more time researching about the people they wanted to write about, because there would have been a much better contrast between Haruki's own prejudices and Reality. At least I think it did well on how it portrayed the homophobic (sexual) harassment and how many don't understand the risks of being outed, though I won't spoil this because I don't remember if it's been translated yet.
I did enjoy Haruki's initial denial of being into Asuka and the insistence on wanting to top at first only to give in and get really shy about it lol. She just can't go against years of That. I'm not particularly interested in office settings so I read this knowing I was probably not going to get into it, and it really wasn't my thing, but it was entertaining enough to read the entire translation and then a few of the raw chapters.
That's it for the batch uploads of this story. I'll upload the rest as I translate them, but Dynasty is caught up on what's up on Wattpad for the most part now.
