Admittedly, this is not a mind-blowing series. But still, I like it and it's relatively easy to translate and I'm doing it for fun. The main difference from my past projects is that this will probably be the only post-retirement series I'll be translating for the next 2 years and I'm focusing on quality than speed.

I'll be glad to help with proofreading or editing. I'm studying to become a writer and this will be a great opportunity to enhance my writing skills, and work on my editing and proofreading.

I love to write/improve on my craft, and this is a series I genuinely want to be involved in. So if you're interested just let me know.

Nice cover

I think they had a quarrel (maybe) judging by that cover.

Also, Azuki Sakurai looks pretty for my tastes ^^

Clarami · 2012-06-07, 11:01

Pretty neat cover, I wonder what will happen this volume. Can't wait to get my hands on it so I can a have a look.

Naoki wants to consult Momo on the possibility that Midori is an Otaku, but Momo is in a bad mood because they believed that Suzuki has a girlfriend, says the synopsis (though I think it's just his sister, since Suzuki is pretty much into 2D girls

).

Man, why is every cover a "Momo" cover? They should make a limited edition with Midori on it

No kidding, I've seen the raws and the pics with Midori is in are so adorable. I want to know more about her.

Interesting, but I want to know about Midori more than Momo

"Momo" cover reminds me "Kirino" cover in Oreimo series, that must be something related with otaku-ish plot or something.

It is an otaku-ish plot because the main dude is an otaku, but hides it from his peers while Momo is studying to become one to get close to a guy he likes, but he's into 2D women and won't look at real girls.

I've upped the illustrations of v4 with my shitty scanning skills, without post-processing (except for mild rotates and crops). Needless to say, there's no way I'll tear the pages from my book to do proper scans.

Enjoy:

Even though Midori is constantly growing on me, Azuki is way too cute this volume!!

blade82 · 2012-06-26, 07:00

who are Murasaki and Akari ?
by the way can you do a little summary for this vol 4

larethian · 2012-06-26, 14:35

Murasaki is a doujin artist and a university student, iirc. Naoki and Momo met her at Comiket in vol 3, and she has taken a liking to Momo. Akari is Naoki's little sister and has been present since v1.

I can't do any summary because I have only read a third of the book. My schedule is packed back to back since last week.

DarkSkiper · 2012-06-26, 15:29

Started reading this LN and got really interested. Hope some more translators join in, but beggars can't be choosers.
And larethian, thanks for the character relationship chart, give a basic idea of what they think of each other.

larethian · 2012-06-27, 11:22

I'm done with v4.

Spoiler for v4 key points:

You have killed me with the last one

But, that gives me a little bit of hope about their relationship in a near future.

larethian · 2012-06-27, 11:42

^ That calls for more drama. There may be a reason why that is so. I kind of expect that Midori's perspective is to be transformed.

To continue:

Spoiler for v4 picture decode:

Syokool · 2012-06-27, 11:50

Yeah, it'd be boring if things go out well all the time.

About illustrations, I was reading the pages before each one, (the raw was already uploaded in Share and PerfectDark btw), but is meaningless if I don't read the other volumes I have left (2-4).

Kinda unexpected how things are going, I'd like it to gain more popularity among readers.

Share has HQ raws? Can you put them up at jcafe (sorry I don't use Share)? Then, I don't need to scan my v2 and v3 illustrations to up them to BT......

Syokool · 2012-06-27, 11:59

Only vol.4 HQ was scanned this time, tough I think illustrations will need some kind of work with bright level. Ac6 has uploaded it in Novel Shoppu.

Volumes 2 & 3 are LQ, so...

larethian · 2012-06-27, 12:11

I guess 2 and 3 will be up in time (I hope). Nvm, someone will upload them to BT one of these days. Now waiting for Comic Alive that should have been released today, so that I can start work on chapter 2.

Syokool · 2012-06-27, 12:18

Ah, you're talking about the manga series, right?

I remember the 1st chapter, and is pretty faithful with the novel. I liked the artist's style in Namiiro, so I'm following it in CA among other series.

larethian ava & sig thks 2 Patchy! Join Date: Jul 2010	I'm done with v4. Spoiler for v4 key points: 1. Naoki and Momo had a big fight and they made up 2. Momo is going to partner with Murasaki for a doujin 3. Naoki had a date with Azuki, though he doesn't think of it as a date 4. Momo's relationship with Suzuki managed to take a big step forward. Suzuki is now conscious of Momo 5. Naoki starts to realize he had some other feelings for Momo but deny it himself 6. Azuki's relationship with Naoki takes a turn for the worse? Probably because she realized her one-sided feelings were going nowhere 7. By chance, Naoki learns of an earthshattering fact --> that Midori hates Otakus. ~ END ~ __________________ Last edited by larethian; 2012-06-27 at 11:41.
