Hello,

I might be a manga translator, but it's been a hot minute since I last actually looked around for something to read.

So what're you all reading?

I'll be picking Youkai Izakaya back up in a month or so when I have the time, it's a Nonoco work and is kind of cute / funny.

I'm partial towards Wakamono no Kuromahou since I did the bulk of the translation before I pissed enough chuds off that they had a concerted effort to snipe me. It's charming and has a bunch of lefty themes to it which is why I translated it... but it certainly has... Japanese tastes.

    Not a big manga reader, but I've gotta give big praise to Vinland Saga, that series is the bomb and everyone should read it. It starts as pretty typical shonen shit, I used the edgy violence of the first 55 chapters to attract my Berserk reading cousin but it's post chapter 55 that the series really gets good. It's not every series that manages to properly address the personal trauma that your typical shonen protagonist goes through, almost casually, but Vinland manages it pretty well I think.
