      @Paul-Nebeling According to dictionary.com and urban dictionary, a “scab” worker is a temporary one who takes the place of another worker on strike. So just sounds like a replacement translator who is reading the series to be acquainted with the style and story, but hasn’t officially been revealed yet.

          A scab doesn't have to be temporary or indeed a new worker, they could just be someone who is not respecting a union strike for example. In this case it seems to indicate someone who will be working in Sam's stead as a translator. A less pejorative term could have been to call them a locum, stand-in or replacement translator.

          It is possible that Sam is unaware of the extent to which 'scab' is a charged term for a strikebreaker in some communities.

          Stay shiny, y'all.

              @Pokemon Unfortunately, we are still working on obtaining the license and have no updates or ETA.

              Whoever said nothing's impossible never tried slamming a revolving door.

                Patience, while being a virtue, seems to be in short supply around here. I can sympathize though. After all... (Demon Lord spoiler)

                  What about otherside picnic v4? Has been one of my favs series lately, and seeing that there might be some sort of "winter" theme, which I highly like, makes me so impatient XD

                                Is there any news of The World's Least Interesting Master Swordsman, Volume 5? Volume 4 prepub ended ~3 months ago.

                                  Also it's been about 1.5 months for Altina the Sword Princess. Though I seem to recall Sam mentioning they were in the process of licensing more volumes after burning through the last batch.

                                    @Terabyte @LegitPancake No interesting news other than "we know more volumes exist and we're working on getting them going as soon as we can!"
