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 really looking for cutesy stuff. I want heavily subversive stuff at the moment.

      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'm trying to find one I read a while back about political intrigue in the after-war period, it was pretty good.
