That's bullshit! This would be like picking ten artists that are extremely masterful in their respective style and forcing every single art student to learn only those art techniques or draw in a certain way. It completely disregards innovation, which is absolutely required in any field or hobby that allows you to make something different. What is this communist Hell's Kitchen BS, Azami!?
This is textbook emotional abuse that he inflicted on his child. So my assumptions regarding Erina's extreme fear at reuniting with her father were correct. He is also one of the worst kinds of people: Ones that waste food just because it isn't 110% perfect. What a freaking joke this man is. Gordon Ramsey and other widely-lauded chefs would no doubt jump on this guy's throat for doing such a thing. Every panel devoted to this bastard makes me angrier and angrier. I can't wait to see how he'll get his ass handed to him or for Erina to step away from this horrible man.
...to think that anything but molestation or extreme abuse happened between Erina and her father. I mean, what the hell would cause such a strong reaction like that from her (yet complete submission) that wasn't something as severe as abuse or emotional manipulation..or worse? (⊙_⊙ )
Or it could have been towards Erina's mother. He might have done something terrible to her. (but I do not know since we are not given any information about Erina's mother.)
* I meant the abuse
I can hardly imagine it tho. Cause, shounen? (quite skeptical with anything shounen) Might just be an exaggeration cause Erina used to loooooooooove food so much and food is god and she had to throw it away (/TДT)/
You have a point there. But didn't Yu Yu Yakusho have some pretty dark themes for a shonen manga?
Did anyone at all do any proofreading? No one thought that "I will myself, do all the food" wasn't at all wrong? Christ. Hard to enjoy the story when I'm reading a sample of Google Translator gone awry.
You translate it then. You got this for FREE, and those who took the time to scanlate this probably did this in their own time. Please remember that when your criticizing a piece of work that you probably couldn't even do.
Hey, no one is forcing them to put out a poorly done FAN TRANSLATION. If I had a choice between someone getting their hands on it and immediately pushing it out after a slapdash job, and waiting for a more put-together scanlation team to look at it after they were done with a project or two, I'd go with the latter choice. I favor quality over quantity.
You're complaining over something you got for Free? No one is forcing you to read it. Buy the damn manga when it is released in English if you want top-notch scanlations. You're complaining over crappy translations but you would not even be able to moan if they had not released this.
Free shouldn't mean that it's quality is automatically shite. I certainly don't give people things for free without it being half-decent.
I honestly do not see the point you are trying to make. At the end of the day, it was free, done in somebody else's time and is a decent translation. It's understandable. You should be grateful? If not then you re-scanlate and translate it. Stop complaining its childish. Don't take what is given for free for granted.
If you read the other chapters, the translation has been redone and improved, I noticed the same difficulty reading at first but there's an alternate version if you keep going
I saw it and was relieved. Reading the new translation, I saw that it was much more poetically written in the beginning, which explained my utter confusion with the older translation in regards to what it was actually saying.
Ahaha, I know, it's unusual they haven't just removed the more incorrect version.
I was going to complain a little about the translation too until I saw the last comments. I've only read chapter 1 so I guess I'll keep reading in hopes of better translations in the later chapters.
It went from Vol 2. Chapter 4 to Vol. 2 Chapter 13..I'm so confused.
It's quickly becoming..I don't know..tiresome? It doesn't seem to have much punch to it like before. I mean, Chapter 22 (which as I type this is not present) has two new characters being introduced without really...establishing anything. I don't see how this story can really handle that many more characters. The author has already set a time limit before the Apocalypse, I think it's best to simply focus on the characters that are already there and work to the end.
yea going to have to agree with you （￣へ￣）
Hahaha! When things are quieting down that means theres something even bigger coming :3 But this is already above average as a manga lol.
It's just as the person before me says. Time slots down a bit for relief. This gives the main characters time to digest what the tempest really means to them and their new found power. Also, there is a strain between themselves. So it's not really as slow as it is building up a climax in which your attached to the characters who will die
Reading this until ch.30, gave me some reasons, not to get attached to any character, but to want dead all of them... And guess what, NONE die (Yet)... That's hillariously absurd. Admins reacruits mahou shoujos, but if she has a brain: "lets kill her cuz we don't like nosy ppl" ... What a let down for those so called big bads, seriously.
yeah, but i have the feeling that someone will be dying pretty soon. a lot of them have been using their power a bit too much
I totally agree with you. I liked how this started off but it's just devolving into a bunch of edgy garbage.
Chapter 17 is chock full of repeating pages, sometimes there are 2-4 pages that are repeated 2-4 times in a row, or somehow they just appear awhile after they were originally presented. Is there any way to get rid of them? I'm sure if you did the page count for that installment would go from in the 200s down to the 100s. It's just so, so tedious to scroll through shit I've already seen.
I'm sure the same problem is in other chapters that are this expansive with this much content.
I don't know what kind of meth y'all are smoking, but you should quit. The art isn't bad.
There is no easy answer. Jeremy and Ian's relationship is so multi-layered. The constant back-n-forth "I'm not what you need to be happy"/"I am the only thing that could make you normal", "You need to seek help"/"I am your medicine, no one else can come close to understanding you", "Maybe we should go our separate ways/We can't function without each other" is so painful to see unfold. I don't think that Jeremy will ever acquire a sense of peace from what has been done to him because he either tries to willfully ignore it while it taunts him from the shadows or he becomes utterly paralyzed from any and all attempts to face it head on. He's a broken bird with an extremely tough shell developed for self-defense. It doesn't help that he feels totally at fault that Sandra died and let's face it, he did kill her. Not intentionally, but he did. And that's the thread that has made it impossible for him to forgive himself or touch anything to do with his step-father, and that's a shame because all victims deserve and should be able to destroy that ugly past and move on with a brighter future in mind. But it ain't that easy, unfortunately. Lots of people are still plagued by the demons that haunt him until their dying days.
These horror stories kind of annoy me. Maybe because all of the characters in them are horrible people.
