Very nice, thanks for bringing this to us.

"No you see, to fit in better with human society I discovered this thing called kink play and Wakana here was totally into it, so you see it's all above board and you don't have to worry about me creating kin or anythin-"
"Oooh, so you're into thaaat? Let me in on the fun~~~~!"

This is extremely weird. I'm here for it.

Yo this is no joke.

Ooooh yes, always good to see new YagaKimi fanart.

Whelp next Harem member is a nun.

I'm really surprised this doesn't have a harem tag tbh.

I really wish this wasn't a harem either. I liked first girl should have just been her smh.

The question is "How is Wakana going to make Ruruna acquire yet another thrall this time?"

I wonder if we could have a "It gets better" tag for things like this.

Maybe something like Optimistic?

Wholesome is there for pretty much that.

Lil' sis knows exactly what she wants and she's not taking no for an answer.

Yaaaay, more yandere zombie girls!

Love the credits pages of Knight Heron translations :D

I assume they mean wild boars... and if you remember Gothic 3, you know how dangerous those can be.

Aahh... messy. I should read nmi's series some time... I do like their style and stories.

^^^ I have your evidence. (ah no, oops. I reat that "this happened in battle" in general...)
^^ German, 16th Century, actually.
Yes, I'm very fun at parties, why do you ask?
How does this image embedding work again?

Mmmh I wonder what Hana has in store next. Surely her destructive forces aren't done yet.

^ I guess you could say they'll be eating good.

I never read the original version (aside from the one chapter still on the reader), but boy am I glad I'm finally giving this remake a chance. Hope it keeps going places.

Bit of a cheesy ending. I skimmed this since it was "I love you" spam and art panels of them in different cute poses.

I've got not complaints, in any case. It's nice to have the couple resolve things and then get a time skip, rather than having it the other way around to seem more dramatic.

Yeah I'd pretty much echo this. The tsundere was maybe broken a bit too completely, but it was sweet regardless.

^ it's always the quiet ones.

What was the line, "A true pirate doesn't fear the Red Sea"?

lmao, at the rate things are going, I wonder if we're going to see the subtext tag get dropped.

*when

Where's Übel when you need her?

Oooh, pretty kitty.
And oh boy do I not envy the new girl for the punishment that will be due.

Some official translations also make for a stellar read. The official translation of Ruri Dragon has a fantastic flow (at least for the first couple chapters, I eventually dropped behind and haven't caught up). What the individual reader values and likes most is another matter. I love Sexy Akiba Detectives version of this oneshot by Ohsawa Yayoi, while others prefer the Daylight version.

Different story entirely are the crimes against literature editors sometimes commit in changing plot points or outright omitting things because they think they won't fly in the target market. Jelly filled doughnuts being one of the smaller offenses here :D

In case of YagaKimi I've read the 4s translation on Dynasty first (after watching the show though), compared some chapters to another group's on Mangadex and eventually bought and read the official Seven Seas one. Don't recall anything too egregious about the Seven Seas version of it, but I also haven't read that one since 2019. Some aspects and individual phrasings I preferred in one version, while other things felt more natural in another. In terms of overall polish, the 4s was probably the best.

What Aikosaurus said is also painfully true. Translation is generally paid by word count, and not paid well, so if you want to make a decent living, you need to work fast. You still want to deliver the best quality you can muster (which varies wildly depending on personal and temporary factors), but you also can't keep agonizing over each particular turn of phrase forever and eventually need to settle for "good enough". Not sure how the workflows are in manga translation, but I work in video game translation (among other things) and especially for larger productions it's rather convoluted, with work being spread out between many people and teams that may or may not have the same ideas stylistically even within existing guidelines. Plus if workflows and tools are clunky, that certainly doesn't help quality. As was also seen recently with Crunchyroll's subtitle debacles.

Can't find the anime season thread and I'm not sure it belongs there, but I feel people here will appreciate this:

https://archive.org/details/nolovefinal-release

Indie 3D animation by Atelier (bsky) / arainydancer (tumblr), known for her Signalis Fanart. Girls with guns yuri. Slightly NSFW. It's also on youtube, but it's age restricted there because can't have tiddies.
