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.
Have you read Berserk yet?
Literally 1 chapter of it. Should I pick it up? (Is it close to the end?)
I would, it's a classic and still being released. There's a joke that the author never publishes, and there's like 6 months between chapters now, the series has like 330 insanely detailed chapters.
I'm still waiting on the next Hunter x Hunter chapter after a year, and you want to put this on me? I can't.
If you want something horny, Tsugumomo's good

Bruh I swear the author is going to kick it way before it actually finishes.
HxH is going to end in the same way :( . It's some of his best work to this date too. (I am including all of Yu Yu Hakusho)
Mairimashita Iruma-Kun was cute, though there was a translation group that picked it up at a point that was absolute shit.
Not really looking for cutesy stuff. I want heavily subversive stuff at the moment.
I'm trying to find one I read a while back about political intrigue in the after-war period, it was pretty good.

The series I translated for a while, Wakamono no Kuromahou was an allegory for Black Companies, though I'd warn you it's extremely horny and in ways that'd probably get me canceled if people actually read it.
I've read Sundome, so don't be ashamed.
