67% Inertia - Vol. 6 Ch. 58 - A girl that wishes to touch

I can't really judge the translation itself, but everything here seems rather low quality.
There are sentences like "What kind of intention does have from only looking at it and letting it swell......." (p. 4) or "Explaining would be such a pain the ass to do." (p. 12) and it reads really stiff in general. Definitely needs a pr.
The typesetting is all over the place as well. The font switches every other page and a ton of letters are cut off (e.g. p. 4 last speech bubble or p.6 first speech bubble). Then there is the punctuation......... especially the use of ellipsis.......... but I'll put that under "to each their own" for now............

I actually only looked at the comments because of the quality issues and was surprised when people were defending this, but I guess a lot of readers would rather have this than nothing.
 
He can't seriously be that thirsty.

@Ind3x I'd say quality is only important in works that 'specialize' in something, in which case the quality ought to keep up to avoid being a bottleneck of enjoyment (e.g. beautiful artwork needs good scans, complicated plots need good translations). This one doesn't strike me as anything special, rather functions solidly as a comfy/goofy comedy manga. So it makes a lot of sense that people would rather have this than nothing since the output provided didn't come that close to that bottom threshold, at least in my opinion.

And of course, if quality drops below that other threshold, it becomes amusing for completely different reasons
