Cavalier of the Abyss - Ch. 148

[lilycrown]

@NibbPower In Chapter 144, page 20, Serin says she'll name her son Jyi, but in the full version of that scene in Chapter 103, page 12, she says Xix. Isn't it the same name, just translated differently?

 

[Jyi]

@Mr_1RaE @lilycrown Literally, his name is JAI in Korean, which we have transformed to Jyi to make it look better for english readers. Xix is a wrong name, here what I've found while reading the manhwa : Zai, Xix, Xi, Xip (lol at this one).

His name is Jyi, guys, not Xix.

@Jyi I don't think Xi is totally wrong, since there's this post from Juder's blog listing the characters' names in English, but I prefer Depore, Caladbolg, and Nirvana to Diffor, Kaladbolg, and Nivana, so I'm fine with not following that and just grateful this series is being worked on. Thanks for confirming that it's a translation change!

 

[Jyi]

@lilycrown Wheew, what a strange "conversion" from the author, didn't know about this blog post, thanks.

That being said, some conversion are weird regarding how names are written.

For instance, 데몬 = Demon (De-mon), not Damon

Also, 니르바나 = Nirvana (Ni-re-va-na), not Nivana

I think the author tried to anglicize but failed at it sometimes.

Regarding Xi, either the author fucked up real bad, or maybe she wanted to give him a "chinese" touch ?
Also, how do you pronounce it lol ? Ksi ? Gsi ? Shi ?

Is this the last chapter of this episode?

 

[Jyi]

@henkingu No, the manhwa ends on chapter 150, but a third part is supposed to come out in the future (we don't know when).

 

[henkingu]

@Jyi thank you for clarifying! hopefully it focus on Nex on the next part

@henkingu Same, I really want to see Nex and Serin to reuniting with other and in the end be together forever. Everyone pray that Lilith Cord season 2 finishes soon so that the sequel of cavalier of the abyss comes out.
