Maou ni Natta node, Dungeon Tsukutte Jingai Musume to Honobono suru - Vol. 5 Ch. 32.1

[AtashiNoYuutsu]

The raws are just at 33 so I don't really think anyone should blame LHT for being slow on this title

 

[BatuMenhir]

well, time to overthrow the goverment

 

[n0rthernlying]

can u next chapter even shorter plz. i dun have good attention span

 

[hxtreme]

Noooo! A cliffhanger

 

[Kojirremer]

waiting for 3 months for 1/2 chapter is great

@xoxa Assuming it's not 1/3, or worse.

 

[baconcat]

More of this cancer that puts hyphens for honorifics in the next line for absolutely no other reason than to follow a completely artificial, arbitrary, pointless, and self-serving asspull of a convention …

 

[mimisan]

@baconcat WTF you on about. hyphenated honorifics makes sense considering that its's merging two different languistic concepts. It's a perfectly normal and appropriate way to do so. WAAY better than idiotic translations that use stuff like "Sir xxx" or "Lord xxx" for -sama

 

[mimisan]

@Kojirremer its LHTrans. unless someone else comes along and starts translating it properly, thats the best you can hope for

 

[Doodads]

@n0rthernlying inb4 they post Ch. 32.11

Maybe we'll see Ch. 33 before 2022

 

[Jercov-]

@mimisan baconcat was reffering to adding -sama/-san etc on next line within a speech bubble, not just adding it.

carlotta-san

vs

carlotta
-san

which i agree is just lazy typesetting

 

[Wally617]

Cant wait for next chapter to be released next year

 

[conscript117]

Thank you for the update....

 

[Excitor]

Thanks for the chapter!
Please more soon!

 

[mimisan]

@Jercov- really? didn't seem that way. If that was indeed the case then I agree wholeheartedly.

However his complaining about convention or whatever suggests otherwise

 

[JaxTheTurtleManager]

Omg I'm so glad it's back.

 

[baconcat]

@mimisan
@Jercov-

More specifically to starting the line with the concatenating hyphen, a practice which has exactly zero typographical justification yet seems absurdly popular among scanlators, certainly across the MD catalogue. Concatenating or line-breaking hyphens NEVER, EVER lead a line in written English, not even when the bubble is too narrow. This is not even a matter of "because the rules say so"; after all, codification into rules usually happens only after the practice in question showed to be beneficial.

By all means, throw this out the window and do it differently just because it's possible, because it's free and therefore untouchable by criticism, or whatever other reality-removed reasoning may come to the incorrigible mind, but don't expect such idiosyncrasy to be unconditionally welcomed with open arms.

 

[sambenmaggie]

@baconcat You're correct but you also sound like an arrogant douche. You can mention a mistake and not be an ass about it mate.

 

[mimisan]

@baconcat ah yes now that you've clarified what you're saying i agree with you. Sorry, your first post was worded badly and I misunderstood what you were saying to mean that hyphenating the honourifics in any way was wrong.

You're right. the hyphen should not go to the new line. It's bad and lazy typesetting. I blame the software for doing this though. I'm not sure in what instance it is okay to break up hyphenated words onto a new line

 

[baconcat]

@sambenmaggie Except, as I thought I'd made abundantly clear, it's not about having a mistake happen to someone but about either not giving a damn or in fact choosing to do it like that to exactly nobody's benefit. There is only so much patience in the world, and if it's a problem for you that I'm expressing this with too few words that sound like sunshine and butterflies to you, and with too many words that don't, then I'm afraid I can't help you. I'm neither a clinical psychiatrist nor your parent.

 

[sambenmaggie]

@baconcat "You're right. I am a huge arrogant prick"

Thanks for clarifying.
