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.

    My last big binge read was Majo no Geboku to Maou no Tsuno, which happens to be one of the most sincere and thoughtful explorations of gender in a world with transformation magic. The action is in service to the plot and the characters are all distinctly human feeling. Its light hearted, funny, and generally sweet. 10/10 manga would reccomend.

    The big series I'm following rn though would be The 100 Girlfriends who Really Really Really Really Really Love You. I'm working on a bit where its the post-scarcity Harem manga but it is really funny and all the characters are great. The plot is a hella schlock-y but that isn't really the point, all the characters are cute as hell and the gags are pretty funny, I'm surprised Kusuri's character didn't get them banned though. Too many drug references including Meth by name. The series is about 40 chapters deep and 10 GFs in and it is still holding up very well. 10/10(0 girlfriends) as well but in a different category as the last one.
