I don’t know Japanese, but the author posted something on their pixiv a little while back with the date 5/25, so maybe that’s when they’re coming back from their hiatus?

I sure hope so, anyway. I need more of this fucking loner and her blue skinned, big titted demon gf in my life.

It just says that their twitter manga (crybaby divorced woman) will get a book release on 5/25.

No news about kuso bocchi.

Welp, I went and read the raws, and overall I thought it was pretty unsatisfying. Nothing ever happens between the MC and her friend because the manga was axed, and the only kiss we get is a forced kiss with the dude.

So yeah, not very satisfying.

Why even bother translating a series that was axed before it's time I'm not complaining, I'm genuinely asking

I translate what I want. That it'd be popular or anger people has no bindings to it.

And it was NOT axed. It has a proper ending and a bonus chapter.

Don't believe everything that's written on the Internet kids.

This thread is starting to be seriously annoying, because people are writing out of their a**.

Speaking of this, after translating chapter 4, I removed the Age gap tag for now.

In the original series, there was no actual indication that Shiki was in love with the nurse. They just had a "mutually supportive" relationship.

When I saw the cover of chapter 1, I assumed it was going to develop the relationship between Shiki and the nurse. But after 4 chapters, it doesn't look like the nurse is a central character, so the tag is out for now.

For anyone wondering, this is already completed with 12 chapters since a while ago (13 with volume 3 bonus), which was axed, all i remember is that it was pretty bad

Obligatory post by guy who "read the raws" and thinks they understood what was going on.

I don't need to "read the raws" when i can actually just read the chinese translation tho, nice try though (there was the spanish translation too, but translated from chinese up to chapter 9, so it was the same for me)

Personally, I read all 3 volumes in Japanese and I deemed it interesting enough to translate it.

But I guess I'll drop this then, since you think it's "pretty bad" ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

And yeah, the aesthetic is straight out from 2000s shoujo. It was like a blast from the past for me

I saw the Het tag and thought, “Meh” (not strongly for or against, just “meh”), but then realized it was Daphie and her goddess-level taste, and then realized it was a 14-sai spinoff, so now I’m excited for this.

After doing Reliance, I had bought the raws of this one and was contemplating doing it, but while I wanted to read it, I'm not that interested in translating het age gap and since it's right up Daphie's alley, I suggested her to do it and gave her the CLRD raws.

Glad to see she did a quick and good job. I look forward for how this series develops. Though I think that in the end, it'll probably turn out like Game Over (with a bit more drama).

I see what you did there.

Lol, I actually had a discussion about this on Discord. I had to keep it, of course.

Anyone know why the author switched this series to mini chapters like the main one? Or was it just the way the chapters were initially uploaded here?

The author has another yuri series running in another magazine (Link here) and they might have trouble maintaining long chapter for this one.

Priorities I guess.

That other series, although yuri, is primarily a food manga, and I'm not fond of that, so I won't pick it up.

Rehashed, sorry for the impromptu QC, but you might want to review the usage of pronouns as subjects vs as objects. It was a bit egregious this time around (basically just don't use "me" or "him" at the start of a sentence or "I" or "she" at the end)

Done.

Hello, translator here.

I removed the Cheating tag and replaced it after finishing chapter 2, because it's not cheating after all.

Enjoy.

The ending was confusing af.

I didn't get the punchline. Please, explain.

Please to be your "little sister"? I think something is lost in translation.

"Pleased to be your little sister" makes no sense and is a mistranslation.

I checked the last line on the raw. She actually says "Give my regards to your "little sister"".

Ie, she doesn't mind (or endures) her to be with the little sister as long as she has her time outside of school.

That's all.

I decided to release on Dynasty what I had done in the past, because I don't have the time to redo 5 and 6 and Dynasty deserves to have the latest chapters. Bear with the ugly typesetting and awkward translation of the earlier chapters, please.

It seems the author was sick, so the release schedule got really slowed down, but it looks like they are back in the game, since next chapter comes next month (after chapter 10 of this month).

From what I know, the Squiggles version won't make it here, because:

1) "Thousand Lilies" didn't drop it (they just lacked an editor)
2) Unless the group disbanded or dropped it, Dynasty always stick to the same scanlation group.
3) SquigglesJP's quality varies wildly, from normal to trash, so their works gets uploaded here on a case by case basis.

According to their twitter and the Takeshobo site, Zyugoya is taking a break because "they've reached their physical and mental limits" but they hope to resume in the spring.

Therefore, "Blue skin" is on pause. ;_;

I'll of course continue to translate it whenever they resume it.

Maybe this should be tagged subtext, unless hugging your best friend is considered gay now.

It's part of a yuri anthology by Ultra Jump.

Hence, it's yuri.

While I was at it, I also translated the oneshot at the end of the volume and posted it here.

I don't think it really belongs on Dynasty, as it's nothing special, but I did it for the sake of completion.

The second oneshot, "Tokyo Girl", has already been translated years ago and is on MD.

So, this is the end. You make what you want of it... ^^;

Hope everyone enjoyed it.

The ending is pretty ambiguous, so I'm not too sure how to interpret it myself.

Don't worry, you won't be disappointed by the WTF ending.

It leaves more questions than answers

For the records, there are 21 chapters total, with the last one being around 30 pages.

In the volume, there are two extra chapters, but one is just a few pages long, is Het, and is not that interesting. The other was already scanlated (from the mag) here as part of the Balance Policy series (so it can be said to be Het too) a long time ago.

So I won't do either.

Are the two extra chapters part of this story?

No. They are unrelated oneshots that were probably published in a magazine and were added to this volume to pad it. They are not yuri.

No chapter this month. Just an ad for the release of volume 1 at the end of January 2022.

https://comic.webnewtype.com/contents/monthly/65/

See you next year for that one.

After some feedback, I dropped the "this" and replaced "ya're" by "yer".

I think the rest of the "ya"s is enough to get the point of the thick dialect across.

T/N: sorry for the "ya" everywhere, but both Matsuba-chan and Miyako are speaking a heavy Kansai dialect and that's the way I found to somewhat render it. Without it, you'd lose some of the flavor of the manga.

I tried to do the reverse split-mirror-letter translation, can anyone make out what the message in the "twista" says?

kyou ha tyoppiri
otona no shigoto.
tamani ha warukunai
kamo ne!

I updated page 6 of the extras. Kind people informed me it was a reference to an ad for a game, which lies about the actual content of the game.

I am from rural Alaska, and what sent chills up MY spine was her running on a mountainside. We've all done it, but it's a really, really bad idea.

What's a bit lost in translation is that what she calls a "mountain rush" (山駆け) actually refers to an ascetic practice by Yamabushi monks.

The typical ascetic practice of Yamabushi is mountain running, which involves walking for several days through steep mountain paths while reciting sutras.

In the old days, the training was so severe that dropping out of the training meant death.

It doesn't mean she's running all the way up the mountain. She's just climbing (walking up) the mountain twice a day, which is already impressive.

That was the cultural note of the day.
