Kaibutsu Oujo ch 79 script

I tried my best to keep myself from adding Yu-Gi-Oh jokes.

I'm not going to translate the Nakua spin-off because it's actually full-length.

E7AO dropped

Due to lack of (speedy) raws, I can't compete with MangaStream. I have to say that their translation is kinda bad. For example, they somehow interpreted "I felt that the world will change" as "I felt that the world is going to end." I think this is how the "only girls can pilot IFOs" misunderstanding began, but without raws, I can't judge any more of their translations. Just don't speculate too much off of it.

Fuck, this always bothered me.

Old Post:

Due to unforeseen circumstances (the other scanner is having some personal troubles), the complete raws have been delayed. Here are the raws that are more requested than others (except for Drug and Drop, which I forgot to scan this time around). It'll take me time to scan the entire issue, so if you want me to prioritize a chapter, just tell me below.

Noririn dropped

To put it plainly, volume 4 just has too much text without action or any form of respite, and volume 5 probably won't be better. The more that I look at it, the more I find myself unable to muster the effort I need to translate all of the text. I'm sorry, but sometimes I need to say no instead of brute-forcing my way through it.

Arpeggio of Blue Steel ch 29

I was thinking of waiting for better raws, but this chapter isn't too art-heavy and I'll eventually redo it, so I just used the bad raws. In the future, I'll wait for the better raws if the art is a significant part of the chapter.

Fuck, finally, this arc is over. I wanted to write "Professor Osakabe sacrificed himself to save this series" on the second page.
