I'm glad you have something that works for you!

you're an utterly tiresome troll, op

I only read MDZS but... it's the same translation, just in book form? Nope, I'm not paying for that.

[(Anonymous)]

>$20 per volume
lol what those prices are embarrassing

[(Anonymous)]

I do think they're cleaning it up and probably have an actual editor look over it? It's the same people doing the translation, tho yes.

I'm mostly grateful because with actual paper books I can actually quickly turn back pages. I swear my brain turns into a sieve every time I try reading e-books. I finish something and have forgotten half of it an hour later. It's weird.

[(Anonymous)]

I mean... it's nice if they have an actual editor look at it, and I appreciate that it was a labor of love. But I'm not paying $20 for that level of quality.

[(Anonymous)]

One of the several groups doing the translations, you mean. I think there have been at least 3 different groups trying their hands at it so far.

[(Anonymous)]

$20/book is about market price for most novels, so...fail to see how that's such a sin tbh (though I agree the translation needs to be brushed up)

Also, why is keeping the honorifics an issue? I much prefer that to poor English equivalents like "childe".

[(Anonymous)]

MDZS is also getting an official TL in my country and while I'm happy for the author (if she can enjoy this at all, considering nobody knows where she is) I'm probably not going to buy them. Mainly because translations for these kinds of novels (BL, webnovels/lightnovels, from Asia) tend to still be pretty half assed and what I've seen so far in terms of translations for certain key terms (like for example for "cultivator" is majorly awkward and clunky at best.
I prefer figuring out how to buy the originals and then read free fan TLs.

[(Anonymous)]

Honestly I would kill for a good Dark Visions or Forbidden Game TV/movie adaptation. I love those ones.

[mishey22]

I love this. I'm glad it works for you, anon

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah... the whole "honorifics yes or no" is a major debate even in professional translator circles and I understand arguments both for and against it.
