Yeah, that's true, I overexaggerated. I'm very familiar with the LN industry and how prematurely publishing a light novel might end up killing the web novel as well if the LN sales aren't good. It happens with every other WN turned LN. So it's more like an educated guess. But I do have hope the...
Strange translation on page 18. だがタスク・スメラギなら悪いようにはしないだろう. Something like "But if it's Sumeragi Tasuku, I'm sure nothing bad will happen to them" or more liberally "But I'm sure Sumeragi Tasuku would make sure no harm comes to them". Not only is "However, at least Tasuku Sumeragi will be fine"...
@deproxyacct WN translations are caught up. The author only updates the WN once every year at this point. Pretty sure the LN was dropped so he lost all his motivation to write.
@PotatoZero people need to realize a good story will have several characters with their own motives and goals. I mean I get it, stuff like Solo Leveling where everything goes according to the almighty MC's plan is super popular these days, but not everything needs to a wish-fulfillment fantasy.
For those who want to read the source, I would recommend the official translation of the light novel rather than the web novel translation. It's leagues above the web novel translation.
The relevant paragraph in the light novel (last chapter of volume 2):
Read the Korean wiki for it. Seems like a SOL-ish comedy story based on a finished webnovel. It's kind of like a parody apparently. I'll definitely be following it.
The translation is bad. I noticed something was off about page 9 of chapter 1.1 so I went and checked the raws. That third bubble is completely mistranslated.
The story definitely does have too much exposition, crazybars, but that's because it is based on a novel, one that's written strictly in first person and is very hard to adapt. Which is also why there are so many POV changes. The story needs to be told somehow but it can't all be told through...
Chapter 4 is pretty much done. Only QC remains so we'll try to release it by Sunday. We've all been busy with work and school, so it took longer than expected. Meanwhile I just bought and read chapter 5 which was released a few minutes ago. Looking forward to translating that.
Edit: Due to...
