TWO SCOOPS

she keeps getting cuter <3

 

[Random_Passer-by]

Why the bleep would you not call it "house of cards" or something understandable like it?!

 

[Tlos]

This... does put a smile on my face

 

[SunsetSeeker]

We have the best maids, don't we, folks?

 

[B4ND]

@Random_Passer-by because it's something that's easily explained by a small translator note. It's a translation, not a localization.

 

[asfhoiasfjoiasfjpi]

we have to build a wall to keep out the witches

 

[Random_Passer-by]

@B4ND I stand by my statement, so let us agree to disagree.

 

[Acolytus]

@Random_Passer-by Because the translator clearly wanted people to read the title and wonder what the fuck does the IRL Trump Tower have to do with this story. It's an innocent and funny joke and any confusion is cleared out two pages in.

 

[Kisato]

The Duke's going to make playing cards great again.

 

[Abedeus]

@Acolytus

That's like translating "I have to get to my baito later" instead of "part time job" because hey, there's always translator notes.

 

[Lex]

Keikaku means plan

 

[Acolytus]

@Abedeus No, it's not, because that line makes no sense, is an outright wrong translation and there is no joke in it. Calling a house of cards or whatever a "trump tower" is nowhere as bad and, again, the real meaning of the title becomes clear once you see the Duke playing with the cards or read the TL note.

I'm not the best guy to say this considering how much I complain about pointless shit but this is a really minor and stupid thing to complain about. The TL joke doesn't affect the story or your enjoyment of it in the slightest and it got a chuckle out of me.

 

[Lucky]

I didn't mind it, but I don't like when translators put in jokes in the manga. Just put it as an extra-credit page and keep the pages clean.

Of course Kirei prefers to put stuff in the manga itself, but I still appreciate the translations regardless.

 

[SupGuy]

Those cards are in a nice place

 

[zdarkbrz_816]

ugh, my heart...





Alice... too precious... ×.×'

 

[lasercats]

[Damoon]
