  I really hope that they scare this idiot near to death. He certainly deserves it.

  Very glad to see that a general busybody is finally going out on an actual adventure. I hope that this development will broaden his horizons some. Getting to interact with some of his friends outside of business will also be a good thing I think. I really liked the side stories with Elia. I like how the author is splitting the story some and giving some of it to Elia in order to maintain the connection between her and Ryoma. I'm also glad to see that she and Miyabi met and thanks to Ryoma's meddling became friends. I hope that we will get little tidbits in the story like this from time to time. I feel it gives the story a rather refreshing feel.

  @Jon-Mitchell It's close enough to a biscuit so I'm guessing it's fair game. At least Klem is expanding her look on food and trying some different cuisine. Sort of.

  I liked the clash between sub genre tropes and reality with Himeko and Misaki's different reactions to the twins, Himeko: It's just how they express their friendship and bond with you. Misaki: They tried to strip me without my consent, that's literally the definition of assault WTF! Also Misaki getting Himeko to help her clean was great, I look forward to more of that in the coming parts, maybe Himeko will start swooning over how handsome Misaki looks with sweat across her brow 😊

  I think something's wrong here. Aria didn't get impaled by something on her forehead, and the ensuing bloodbath, during Watarus' battle in this part. Let's see what insanity awaits us in the next part - The battle for the 4th orb!

  Getting to read this this week was definitely a pleasant surprise. I really like how every little thing Viola notices or does is now being turned into a potential business opportunity for the Duchy. I'm kinda surprised that Cercis is giving her the profits for "pocket money" though. I have a feeling the end result will be way more than pocket money though. This is goihgvto be a very pivotal volume for Viola, it's a shame I will only get to read so much per week. But at least I'll get to read it. On a side note, I also think that Viola's hopes of not having to go out in public again are going to be dashed and Cercis' marketing idea for sapphire is going to only push her closer to the social forefront.

  @Wellwisher Understood - yeah, there was no easy way to really handle that one. Japanese printing is just better suited for what the author was doing - it has built-in typographical features that make that work. The idea of having a word in one language and it's plain-language meaning in a superscript would be novel - and then mutliply that by dozens of such instances per page. We experimented with that very early on in the process and it played havoc with the line-spacing, and while it read okay on the desktop, it would have been hell on the eyes in any e-reader. Not to mention that it would require using special CSS coding for every single Baronh word in the book (neither editor nor translator has any programming credentials) - we'd never have made any of our deadlines. There may have been other viable approaches to handling it, but for our own sanity, this one has worked reasonably well. There aren't many experts in Future Space-Elf Gaelic (inside-joke) out there, after all.

  So we got a little bit of info about what Laura of the Latuule family is doing in this part. Also, her perspective ran a little shorter than a typical perspective of Rentt. Why am I getting the feeling that while Rentt is doing all of this in order to get the suspicion off of him from Nive(?) ( the vampire huntress ) in Maalt, all of his actions will only increase the focus she will place on him when they get back? Also, Rentt, old buddy, please realize that Gharb is most likely giving Lorraine tips on how to get you into a relationship with her. It WILL work. I really hope so because I really like Lorraine and the two of you will be perfect for each other!

  @Lex said in Outbreak Company Vol. 15 Discussion: unless the fact that he is a genuine human being comes into play. Yeah, that's exactly what I was thinking. Theresa is just a clone.

  Oh, I thought this volume was split in 10 parts. If there's only 2 parts left then it's unlikely the author can wrap it up. Guess we'll have to wait for volume 11 then... 😕

  @HarmlessDave said in Black Summoner Vol. 2 Discussion: Elfi is very I always want to put her name as this too because she's an elf, so it works perfectly, but then have to correct myself later to Elif. Which means I change it to something else that's wrong, because it should be Efil, lol.

  I, too, noticed that JNC version is somewhat milder during certain scenes compared to fantranslation (for example, Katou resque), but stuff like that is much more likely to be edits made during WN->LN conversion or fanTL error (let's be honest, it was barely readable in the first place) than JNC intentionally changing scenes. Thankfully, times when LNs were rewritten to suit western audience are (mostly) well in the past.

  Suggestions: Part 1 When I heard my name, I looked around again to find another man lying nearby. I'm guessing another is supposed to be in comparison to the guards, but since Lina is brought up right before that comment, it makes it sound like she's implying she's a man. It might be better just to say a man. Part 2 It was the doing of the Red Priest, which was he’d turned on the so-called saint. was why he'd Part 3 Even if I catch you and turn you over the Red Priest, he probably wouldn’t give me the bounty anyway, given how he was acting back there and what you’re saying now. over to the Red Priest,

  I ended up enjoying this title way more than I thought I would based on just the description, so that's always a nice surprise. It's kind of like the story of genie mixed in with cinderella. I just went to read for a couple of hours and then ended up staying up late to read the whole thing in one sitting. @EmpactWB The removing her from the abusive home and using magic to heal her made it so kind of the initial part got resolved pretty quickly, but since the author left all of her abusers alive I think it's safe to say the topic of her abuse is going to be at least a side part of the story for a while. For example: The Baron : She'll probably see him at the mine to find out what he thought of her mother and ask why he would just let everything happen to her. Margarate: As she get's older I'm sure she will realize her half-sister is as much of a victim in all this as she was; although not directly abused she was brainwashed into being an absolutely terrible person by their mother. Wicked step mother: I'm sure Chelsea will one day visit her at the sanctuary to find out what could turn someone that evil. Marquis - Probably escape and start making trouble for Chelea for revenge Here are a couple of suggestions for the text: Part 3 Wear what’s in the closet under the bed. This just might be a dialect thing, but for me, closets are rooms and not pieces of furniture so this sounded very strange. It might be better to call it a wardrobe or dresser. Part 8 “I can’t believe we get to eat as much of this rare meat!” The phrase as much is the start of a comparison that is never said. For example as much of this rare meat as we want! or as much of this rare meat as we are! I think it would just sound better to say so much. That way it just means they get to eat a lot.
