Chapter 48: The Favour
44, 45, 46, 47 >>281768243
>>281867887Hi OP
Hey OP
>>281867914>>281867922Meido!
>>281860903Vivi ruins every chapter she's in, fuck off Vivifag
>>281867894The braids make them look like Indians The other kind, I mean
>>281867930A maid is the last thing she wants in her room
>>281867968A laugh tempered to perfection during her younger ojousama days
>>281868019>>281868030Has Emma ever spoken this much before
>>281868086monke
>>281868113How fucking strong was that branch
>>281868139finally
>>281868241Beau?
>>281868097That's right Emma is not WEAK like a high society girl like you and Eleanor.
>>281868258Wasn't expecting her to be like this
>>281868276I just hope Eleanor knows that I'd never leave her like this
And that's it. She's still a maid at heart.How do you like to dress?
>>281867887>paying to postayylmao
>>281868276Eleanor will be fine ;_;>>281868298she's mine, fuck off>>281868304Thanks, OP. Naked, like everyone here I hope.
>>281868304Thanks OP Jeans and a polo or a shirt primarily
>>281867894My loliwives
>>281868163William is too handsome, yet she never got a good look before. Just goes to show what she has is true love, she fell in love not because he was handsome like that bitch Eleanor, but because of who he is.
>>281868272I can't tell if she's being serious or playing soppy to use him.
>>281868432She seems to have him on a pretty tight leash so I'd say she's sincere
>>281868253A lover.
>>281868460A male one A female one would be a belle
>>281868480Might just be the translator not knowing any better.
>beau>belleFucking richfag Normans.
>>281868480>>281868495Actually could be on Mori, someone get us the raw page.
>>281867945https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Defenestration
>>281868304I'm a pragmatist at heart, so I tend to dress according to the weather and what I am doing.Saying that, I do love a shirt and waistcoat. Always makes me stand up straighter.
>>281868304Hat girl has a name. Did she have one before? Still can't enjoy her new hat.Thanks for the dump OP
>>281867894So Monica just took them into her own service?
>>281868125Yes, crack is dangerous. Don't do crack.
>>281868253They're talking about who Eleanor's next arranged marriage will be to
>>281870252Rich people love keeping exotic pets
>>281871221They're not. She was criticisng her father for going out galavanting and now wondering about 'his' beau
>>281871296Suspicious places, those gentlemens' clubs
>>281868304I have jury duty coming up. The court website insists on no shorts, but I will try my luck anyways.
>>281870252Hakim probably lent them to her since they match her outfit.
>>281871330Are you on the jury, or is it for jury selection?If it's the former, you risk being held in contempt
What do they mean exactly by "society" when they speak of it? Like how to behave at a party?
>>281871521High society. The peerage and the rising common families like the Jones
>>281871507The latter. It will be 32 degrees Centigrade.
>>281871668If it's for jury selection, it shouldn't be a big deal. The court will be eager to narrow the selection down, anyway>centigradeNevermind, I assumed you were an American. His Majesty might have you drawn and quartered for not dressing properly
>>281868432She is 100% manipulating him, if i remember correctly she told Eleanor that she didn't love his husband.
>>281871915She said she didn't love him when they got engaged. She didn't say if she loves him now.
>>281871521It's an abstract concept to reference the system of parties, social calls, traditions, etc. that comprise relations between the aristocracy / wealthy. It's incredibly structured. There are only occasional references to it in the manga because we're seeing highly unusual behavior here.
>>281867945Cute couple >>281868304You can't take the maid out of herComfortably Thanks as always OP!
>>281867930Did she take Hakim's girls or did he gift her separate new girls
>>281872555Maybe she's watching them while Hakim travels?
>>281868253Monica knows pops cheats on ma.>>281872617What a responsible lady
>>281871704Charles isn't a real king, the damn cheater.
>>281867894imagine the foursomes
>>281868514Partner.
>>281872978Alright, just the tler not knowing what fancy words mean then.
>>281872978How does Victorian English come across in Japanese?
>>281873048It's just old timey Japanese, but not early Edo timey Japanese.
maidu
>>281867961>the volume of her breasts making her blouse drape over and creaseI can't articulate why, but it is extremely sexy.
>>281873475I think it's the boobs
>>281868086right honorable monke
>>281868266poor guy
>>281868480maybe he likes catamites
>>281873516it's more than just boobs, it's the way they've been drawn and interact with the clothes.
>>281872555Hakim probably knew she was going to need some firls to carry her around after the inevitable breaking she was going to experience.
>>281873475The detail accentuates the subtle eroticism
>>281868253You forgot the earlier chapter where it's shown the Viscount did have an affair. As >>281868495, >>281868514 and >>281873018 said, it could have been on Mori and that the translator went with "Beau" as a result.If in the case of the RAW provided in >>281872978, had Mori not used the word translated as "Partner", what would the Japanese word for "Mistress" be for it to have been used by Mori?
>>281868304The pants I wear daily are reenactor trousers for the post American Civil War era and the Victorian/Edwardian eras' working class. I like them because they're comfortable and they have nice buttons for button type suspenders so my pants don't fall down to make up for belts not working well for my body shape as a fat guy. Lots of the other men wearing some of the specific ones I got are "lifestyle Santas". I've also started wearing shirts in matching styles to the trousers becauseit looks less weird than my old standard weeaboo tshirts with them.
>>281868304Thanks, anonsito.like shit for my age.
>>281875539"Companion" also works.>I wonder who his next /companion/ will be...With "companion" in italics to stress the vitriol she feels towards her father, yet still under a veneer of politeness.
>>281867945Enter me
>>281868432She's both being serious and manipulating him in a way only women can.
>>281875343He truly is best boy.
Happened to find a copy of the official US release version of Mori's Scribbles at a bookstore today. Lots of Emma and Mori's uncontrollable lusts for all sorts of women.
>>281868304they took her damn hatcan't have shit in america
>>281876638The squirrel is a girl?
>>281868205You can take Emma out of being a maid, but you can never take the maid out of Emma.If William was wise he'd have her continue wearing those aprons after getting married.She's more comfortable in them and she looks sexy as fuck in them.
>>281875539相手 just means other party in general
>>281878408So it's just a mistranslation
I was bored so I dropped by barnes and noble earlier to see what they had for Mori, but they only had Otoyomegatari. I forgot Shirley never got licensed. Also was surprised Otoyomegatari is hard cover, but Mori deserves that treatment.
>>281868253They say "boo" these days.
>>281868276
>>281875539I think "aijin" translates directly as "mistress"
>>281868304Thanks OP.And comfort over style. So at least at my place sweatpants and a t-shirt with no socks.
Vivi’s blue bottom…
>>281868124Bongs getting whacked in American woods is historically accurate
>>281868191continuing to critique their relationship like a drama
>>281872555Hakims girls are much older.>>281873048Probably as well as Edo or Sengoku Japanese in English, you understand, but a lot of little things will be lost in translation.
Back from my trip to Japan, finding stuff made by Mori was kinda harder than I thought. But I snagged this at the Manga history museum in Kyoto, hardcover. I looked in a few manga stores but I always came up short even after asking staff. I was hoping to find an art book or something but I'm content with this
>>281876638LUCKY! This was the kinda thing I spent a full day looking for in Osaka
>>281867894A neat detail about the Campbells not having that much money is how simple their maid dress compared to the Mölders.
>>281867919>>281867945This is all William's fault!
>>281876328Yeah, it's beyond my comprehension but will also never be a problem I encounter.
>>281868410Or because she projected a fantasy on the blur, the way we do on cartoon faces.
>>281871507They force you to come with threats of jail then do the same if you can't afford new pants? What if I pledge to vote in a way that defies justice?
>>281868353Their training isn't complete. They can only serve women right now, not men.
>>281870252They're gonna learn English and return as excellent spies.
>>281884561Is that a sex meme or a real thing?
>>281875724anon is taking this daily seriously
>>281884561At least I can sleep soundly knowing that my daughters won't cuck me with a man
>>281868258>>281868432they're a good coupleknow how to push each other buttons
>>281884533They'll provide you with clothes
>>281884533>What if I pledge to vote in a way that defies justice?I'm pretty sure this automatically puts you in contempt. They'll just keep putting you in jury selection until you obey.
>>281868304vest, shirt, dress pants and leather shoes I throw on a hat, leather gloves and when called for a scarf during the winterno tie tough I hate how it feels around my neck and can't stand wearing them for more than a couple of hours at a time
>>281885435Will they provide a man with women's underwear?
>>281868304Thank you for posting.
>>281871521How to "Ohoho" and such.
>>281881906She looked a lot better with her hair down.
>>281890276It's a bother to leave it that way while traveling.
>>281890276She's a professional.
>>281882129Why is it in English?
A bump dedicated to the Vivifags
>>281893648You mean the spankmongers. I don't think anyone is actually a vivifag.
>>281893648That means she doesn't respect you, Stevens.
>>281894243>spankmongersdamn, what a name
>>281894243I like post story Vivi's design
>>281867887Chapter 49: Eleanor at Night
Greetings OP
>>281895531Salutations
>>281895546Hiya
>>281895603jiiii x3
>>281895641;___;
>>281895518they feel like exotic pets rather than people
>>281895655the fuck
And that's it. At least she's feeling better now.Would you rather have English maids or Indian attendants?
Jesus Christ Eleanor is so dramatic, boo hoo the handsome guy you liked dumped you oh woo is you
>>281895743Poor girlRhetorical questionThanks as always OP!
>>281895775shut the fuck up william you piece of shit
>>281895743I'd try the indian girls as long as I can exchange them later
>>281895743That little girl wants her hat back!
>>281893648>I'll say. Her butt waxed the banister.
>>281895743Indian attendant in a maid outfit
>>281895677>>281895734Brown lolis heal the heart, mind and soul.This is a universal and indisputable fact.>>281895743What this anon said >>281896213
>>281893648SHE'S SO FUCKING CUTE
>>281895535I'd like to get to know Eleanor at night
>>281895565Sleek, clean, aristocratic foot
>>281895655Racist
>>281895743Thanks OPAn English maid would heal everything in my heart
>>281893648Drunk Vivi sliding down my railing....
>>281893648Why is it sparkling now...
>>281896976Vivi's special polish is good for the wood
>>281876638I never new these existed. I'm gonna get them.
>>281895734God bless indian lolis
>>281897020How viscous is it?
>>281895603Is this like a trope of some sort? Kuroshits kinda has this but with Chinese girls, and Madame Petit sort of has this in an early chapter. Those are the only two other manga I know with an Indian prince character in them.
>>281897774Don't know why you didn't know about them since they've been mentioned in these threads before (and I've done a comparison pic between vol 1 and my around 13 year old yellowed copy of Anything and Something). But anyways go get them, they're really great
>>281897886About this consistency, and her tush really works it into the wood
>>281867983Isn’t flower girl a euphemism for prostitute? If it is, Richard really has a point
She sip
>>281898947Only the older girls were prostitutes.
>>281898947Emma did what she needed to live.
>>281898947No. In England it referred to women or girls who sold flowers, typically on the street. Though in the parts of China where the English were they did refer to the high class prostitutes of China as sing-song girls and flower girls. Otherwise it would also refer to the girls at weddings who had the role of scattering flower petals down the procession aisle, which was already a thing during the Victorian era.
>>281898947Picking Emma's flower....
>>281899387Those traffickers already did
>>281895655is there a reason why their finger are a lot darker?
>>281899557Tattoos.
>>281895518They're like sexy insects
>>281899557Henna.
>>281895518>>281895681>>281899767For some reason I can't put my finger on, they seemed like owls to me.
>>281898155In historical settings, foreign aristocracy is pretty much the only group able to travel freely
>>281895621Dirty ass feet
HATEVIVIBEATVIVI
>>281896794'Racist' is code for idiot, which is the new 'nigger'. When you misuse it, you are the racist. And if you are, you always will.
>>281900814What the fuck are you talking about
>>281895775That was gonna be the start of her independence from the man who cheats on her fat, cold mother and has peasants kidnapped or killed on credit. He wasn't bad or a wimp at least, like her sister's baron. He promised even. But then poof, no, you're just a little girl. I'll take ripe woman parts with no status over waiting two years for you to fill out. He is a cad.
>>281897774Have them delivered as a gift (donation) to your local library new or they'll never take them. Then check them out.
>>281899093Not much older.
>>281895621Cute, suckable feet
>>281894243I like bratty little girls. I think the focus on spanking is a little weird, and anons should really jerk off before posting.
>>281899842Maybe the big fucking eyes, retardo
>>281895795Life goes on, anon.
>>281902020The idea of anyone not wanting to spank bratty girls is insane and I dont understand you or anyone else who doesnt. The whole point of this series is making us look back and reflect at how things were in the past. All the good and the bad that came with it and how things changed over time. Brats like Vivi being spanked is a good thing to remember and fills us all with a bit of hope and makes us less hateful.
>>281902525I don't dislike spanking, but my enjoyment of bratty girls doesn't come from wanting to correct them. I just meant that doing massive writeups about your fetish when it's only tangentially relevant is a little weird.I certainly don't do it with my own fetishes.
>>281902600Doing massive writeups about your fetish is the entire concept of a group reading though. Theres no reason for us to read and talk about a story together if not for thinly using it to talk about our fetishes. All art is fetish work as Inio Asano once said.
>>281902661I don't really agree, but I can't argue with the perfect logic of a high level pervert.
>>281893276It was in a section called "translated", I didn't question it. I would've been fine getting an untranslated volume but I lucked out I guess
>>281768243>>281768243A few days late, but to give some context here...UK WWI army casualties: 1.9-2.2%US WII army casualties: 0.1%German: 3.4-4.3%French: 4.3-4.4%Kidnap Colin and Erich before it's too late
>>281902828It's okay maybe they'll die of TB first.
>>281895743>eleanor suddenly acting like emma out of nowheremori is such a shitty writer
>>281902525I unironically want to enable bratty girls whenever I see them in anime and manga. I don't have it in me to correct them. I think they're cute.
>>281902661I for one skip over posts when they're too thirsty. They do nothing for me.
>>281902953It’s just fun conversation and posting about characters and stuff no ones reading the thread with their dick in one hand. There’s only so much to talk about character depth at a certain point it’s hopes an speculation. Everything that’s been said about Vivi has been said. That’s also assuming the posting complaining about the spanking is in good faith and isn’t an angry male sub or anti BDSM person.
>>281902900Same. I want to be an uncle so I can enable my nieces to do whatever they want. I don't want to be a dad because instilling discipline is hard
>>281895743Thanks, anonsito.
>>281895452Where os This from? Also when did Grace had another baby
>>281894243I love Vivi and I love how much of a brat she is. The moment she slid down the stair rail endeared her into my heart. I love that little bratty girl and I also want to spank her butt.
>>281895452Would be funny if Vivi ends up with that public school boy instead of Erich.
>>281904699It's from Mori's Anything And Something, the specific page is basically an extra to the side stories that were volumes 8 thru 10 of the main manga
>>281902853It's actually pretty remarkable in the context of the time that Richard and Auralia had five kids and none of them died in childhood. That's a very healthy family.
>>281905707Nice, i just checked it out. Sad there's no more besides that page and like two more
>>281906338Some twitter doodles. Ancient blogs had more.
>>281906449Oh, anything extra about Adele?
SMACK vivi
I love Vivi. Not as a spanking thing or other fetish nonsense. I love her because she's so cute. I want a sister just like her
>>281898359I would do some thing.
>>281899557Wiping the poo.
>>281907082>Indians>wiping
>>281906951You make it sound like I like Vivi because of a fetish thing when really I have a fetish thing for her because I like her
>>281902899How is she supposed to act?
>>281909368>hurr durrr I'm nyanpanese
>>281909368when bowie did that they all called him a racist
>>281909898They is the name of God, so you can ignore them.
>>281909898they're Asian, so it's fine
I wanna spank the adult maids too
hate will not win
>>281873475As Mori-sensei would say: "that's extremely important."
If I was Vivi's papa, I would give her everything she wanted
>>281912902Where are you gonna get an oompa loompa?
>>281912902Giving your daughter everything she wants and needs is the role of a dad
>>281913001Buy an abbo from Australia
Post spanking commenting on how you noticed Vivi’s butt was jiggling a lot and that you’re worried it’s getting flabby from all the ice cream she eats.
>>281902899She's depressed.
Emma? Dork.
Vivi pees the bed!
>>281916810Yeah because of me
>>281916810
>>281916830You did the fingers in water trick?
>>281893648>>281894679I bet Vivi doesn't do it in front of her governess either
One day the maids will have ENOUGH
>>281919930https://youtu.be/Y-4b863Sv5gWe will keep the maids in lines as we have for all of history
>>281919930>maid revolution
Chapter 50: The Showdown
>>281920251Hi OP
>>281920256Yo
>>281920259>>281920269Howdy
>>281920265H O L YOLY
>>281920265>>281920284WEWnow that's the good shit
>>281920265Maids look like THIS?
>>281920299>>281920318God bless Mori
This looks like a very important chapter.
>>281920331Who visits a friend's home for 20 minutes
>>281920336if that stupid brat Vivi does not show her retarded face and RUIN the whole chapter, this will be the best one
>>281920251IMPORTANT
>>281920318That's retarded. Being a noble women would give her a lot more freedom.
>>281920453This guy
>>281920445She won't be the town bike in that case.
>>281920521cute meido
>>281920521I bet they spit in the cup.
>>281920634Uh oh
>>281920634DO IT
>>281920318>>281920331for a moment I thought the entire chapter would be maids bathing
>>281920682Read the room woman.
>>281920723I wish the entire manga was maids bathing
And that's it. This guy is a dick.Do you have pride?
>>281920753rude motherfucker>>281920762Thanks, OP. Hai
>>281920753Nouveau riche has always been such a retarded insult
>>281920762Thanks OPSome would say too much
>>281920740I feel like it would still be ongoing today with new chapters every few hours, even thru Mori's physical rehab from fucking up her hands with her deathgrip drawing style.
>>281920415They're both following a different path than their father but in their own way.
>>281920331>>281920345etiquette autism transcends time and space
>>281920786Back then it was just COPE that mill and factory owners were leaving behind the old nobility in terms of wealth. Today is applies because the "new money" are usually apes that dress and continue to act like apes
>>281920265Damn.>>281920762What is this guy's fucking problem?I'd say soThanks as always OP!
>>281920470>keep em waiting classic
>>281920737>Insulting the husbandToo far!
>>281920594Joke's on you, I'm into that.
>>281920682I really do find it funny how William gives zero shits about Monica. I can't help but think that Mori thinks so too and keeps including these scenes for comedic effect.
>>281920802Isn't William taking over the family business?
>>281920737>people of inferior social status should do what their superiors say>not me though, I can just toss a duke and duchess out of my house even though they're far above me
>>281920938Unless he can get his dad to make Colin do it
>>281920839I mean it's the same shit just to a different degree, old nouveau riche didn't have the rearing that old money types had and all that so didn't have the same social graces that they had
>>281920649>>281920667fuck his noble ass william
>>281920961If the kid's personality any indication, I don't think Richard will accept that.
>>281920753>calling your own daughter an embarrassment
>>281920284she really gets how to draw butts I wonder if she uses her own as reference
Why was new money so obsessed with ingratiating themselves to the declining nobility anyway? Enough to give away vast fortunes and their own sons and daughters just to have a fancy title. They managed to obtain real power but still continued to chase after an illusion of it.
>>281920762Young girl, denied her tophat.
>>281920737How the fuck does this guy have such powerful connections if he's struggling financially?
>>281920839>Back then it was just cope >Today [it] applies0 self awareness, Viscount
>>281921229he is debtmaxxing. Only his creditors (banks) know about it. It will all suddenly come crashing down one day out of nowhere and he will be ridiculed by his friends and will be forced to sell his manor to cover the depths. Don't see his son in law bailing him out.
>>281920938I mean in terms of handling societal disapproval. Richard did everything by the book despite the derision of those above him in status. William has chosen to do what he wants if people are going to look down on him anyway, and Arthur has decided he's going to rely on educational achievement so he's free from the risk of anyone dragging him down like his mom did to his dad. They're different solutions to the problems their parents faced, and honestly they're both rather naive. Luckily this is an optimistic story.
>>281921199Because even by that point it was not yet entirely obvious that they are declining.
>>281921283I heard this one guy in America is offering great returns.
>>281921199There's a reason why Toyotomi Hideyoshi couldn never become a shogun inspite of ruling Japan itself.They offer a great deal of legitimacy and renown that money and power can't attain by itself.
>>281920762No, just stubbornness.
>>281920489Calling your father-in-law "father" is unusual in Anglophone countries. Mori most likely didn't know. I feel like the translation should've taken some minor liberties to make it sound less strange.
>>281921503more like didn't need to become one, he chose the title of kampaku (regent) which already gave him the legitimacy and control he needed and technically was above the title of seii-taishogun.
>>281921199At the time they were the important people and had been for a thousand years.Little did they know that a mere 20 years later the world would be a different one.
>>281921229These connections cost money to keep alive. The dynamic of the economy had changed. Industry and trades were money pumps while ownership of land provided only a meager income stream in comparison.
>>281920318MARIA IS FOR EVERYONE
>>281920753I wish he died onscreen
You see, Mr. Jones, I would like to take your youngest son with me to America. Why?...shit, how much can I tell him without accidentally affecting the timeline...ahem...I happen to know of some upcoming events that would put specifically Colin in danger...What? No! I am absolutely trustworthy. Believe me. Please, I am doing this for his sake!...ah...N-not the guards...
>>281920753I wonder how many times he's spoken to her in her entire life.
>>281920265I M P O R T A N T
>>281922877>anon accidentally wipes out Europe with a pandemic before the war even begins
>>281920453>>281920470How petty can you get?
>>281920786Just a cope that some irrelevant people couldn't compete with those who actually did shit
>>281920786"Ohoho I'm so much better because I got all my money through the luck of the vagina, you filthy people who worked hard and might even have actual skills."
>>281920361This was not a visit to a real friend, also it wasn't like you called or whatsapped them to tell them you're coming. It's just "today I will pay a social call to another person in high society who I sometimes talk to a dinner parties, but I'll only stay for 15 minutes so as not to puss him off too much because actually he wants to spend his afternoon by himself pursuing his collection of naked maid drawings in one of those lewd Fr*nch books."
>>281923406When used as insult, it often has connotations that "new money" came into them by luck. Like, small-to-middle time trader stumbling onto an exponential growth market and making lots of money fast. Or crimelords attempting to legalise their ill-gotten gains.
>>281920468That would be literally unbearable for her.
>>281920786On top of everything else, it should also be mentioned that many of the "noveau riche" in France received land and titles from Napoleon at the direct expense of the old aristocracy
>>281920753William dodged a bullet. Think of having this git as an in-law.
>>281920839>2020s>New money>ethots, social media retards, technograt WEF globohomo shekelordsIf Viscount Campbell was alive today I'd let him insult the new rich all he wanted.>>281922968Probably too many.>>281922688Sloot>>281921313Arthur is a sick-up-his-ass achedemic and will probably become a politician. William doesn't have the foresight to see this but he is actually saying 'fuck it' and doing what he wants to live in an unsusual way in a world where the door is closing on people like the Viscount and on the problem his father faced. In just one generation from now it will virtually cease to matter. If he has even upper middle class money and a wife he will be in a good position going forward and there will be no benifits to integrating himself with noble society because it becomes irrelevant and dissappears from prominence to a corner of wider society.
>>281920943I'm not familiar with noble titles. Is Monica's husband, and by extension Monica herself, really a higher tier noble than the Viscount?
>>281924267Scribbles 1 actually has a pic of Arthur wearing his work clothes. And vol 2 has one of adult Eleanor, I hope the anon that's been posting pages will do some more eventually since it'd be nice to have digital versions of some of these artworks
>>281920284Seeing her like that reminds me of the innkeeper from Wolfsmund
>>281924401Yes, but it should be noted that England doesn't actually have 'counts', so this is a boo-boo on the TL's part, assuming Mori used the Japanese equivalent titles.In England they're called earls
>>281924460>I hope the anon that's been posting pages will do some more eventually since it'd be nice to have digital versions of some of these artworksThat was at least partly me, though I've been pulling them from online myself since there's no way I'm going to risk damaging my copy I just got to get a good scan of the pages. However I will say they're all available already, and I'll probably post more later to keep the thread alive. But for now here is a link to a torrent with Scribbles 1 thru 3 all included as .cbz fileshttps://nyaa.si/view/1822338Theres even a link to a direct download in the description of it if people can't into torrentsIf you don't have a .cbz reading program you can change the extension to .rar and extract them with winrar, since they're basically the same archive type anyway.
>>281920737>insulting a count/earl and booting him out of your house on a whimAnd this is the guy telling other people to know their place
>>281924782Thanks so much for that link, I've no way to scan my copies and even if I did I wouldn't want to chance damaging mine either.
>>281924782Thanks anon!
>>281925121>>281925161Emma threads are for men of culture so I'm happy to share links in them. Here's another, this one is for Anything and Something which also has some good Emma related stuff to it though the direct download link is dead for this one since it's older.
>>281925235>forgot to actually paste the linkhttps://nyaa.si/view/1656299I got distracted by maids I guess.
>>281920737>Acting like tough shit against people of higher statusIf Monica's husband wasn't such a softie he could be smacking this little shit around
A bump for the Eleanorfags and Gracefags if there are any Gracefags
>>281924460>Scribbles 1 actually has a pic of Arthur wearing his work clothesSpeaking of, here's that one
>>281926391>mori thinks about each and every characters underwear
>>281927002I'm thinking about Mori's underwear
>>281927002Specifically here, at least, she's giving design instructions for a a set of figures. I'd like to see what the final versions ended up looking like
>>281927131I am in awe on the sheer amount of detail she does.
>>281913692but oompa loompas are pygmies
>>281920318I love bushy hair like that
>>281927131I always forget that her stuff got figures too. I bet the Shirly one is really cute, but it's probably both impossible to find and the sort of thing that would make me look like a different kind of pervert than I am.
>>281920943>>281921229>>281924851Normally the viscount shouldn't be able to do that but Monica's husband is such a weak and spineless man.
>>281927212This isn't even her final form.
>>281927304I love this woman
>>281927453How does this woman have my exact taste.
>>281927131I've found it and the finished product doesn't look all that great unfortunately
Eleanor deserved itVivi needs beatingsColin too
Suppose it makes sense she would have read Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy, being a British book and all.>>281927538They could be worse I suppose, though they ought to have been better.
>>281868227damn, she really got told.
>>281927594No fucking way

>>281895452Grown up Vivi giving me major Relena Peacecraft vibes
>>281920786i completely disagree, most nouveau riche never been hard workes but shameless shyloks. back then as today. though i'm not so naive to believe the average noble was a noblesse oblige paragon either.
>>281927902Yeah, now that you mention it I can see it
>>281927941>Erich ripping up Vivi's party invitation
>>281926391grace is 2nd best girl. 1st is eleanor, of course.
>>281927941>>281928020Starting to want a Super Meido Taisen now.

>>281927253Yeah but she wouldn't know the difference
>>281920318The pull out game in this era must have been mastered for Maria not to be pregnant yet
>>281928433Condom technology had already reached rubbers, though skins were more popular still due to not dulling the feeling as much.
>>281927941I fucking love mori
>>281927538Cute Vivi and Colin.
>>281929069
>>281929195You should probably just repost the Grace page for size consistency since the one I posted is a screenshot on my tablet, just in case anybody is saving these instead of downloading from the link
>>281929195>that figureWilliam fucked up.
>>281920753>1800s old money aristocrat talking shit from his mansion when his medieval ancestors used to collect Frenchmen skulls as war trophies and shit.
>>281925235That diplomat? Me.
>>281921844Then why does Shrek call Fiona's father Dad?
>>281920504I guess she does love her husband, in her own weird way.
>>281920521An interesting detail: the Molders are wealthy enough to provide a uniform to the maids (though it was early enough that Mori might not have known better), while the Campbell maids wear different aprons from one another.
Reminder that during World War 1 casualties from the upper class of Britain was disproportionately high, to almost 25% of the 10,000+ nobles who served being killed in the trenches.
>>281930465At least the nobility was actually going to war back then, these days they'd join the armed forces but not do any fighting.
>>281930391she loves him so much to go for a "sentimental journey" (mori's words) to india, with a playboy indian prince and without wearing her marriage ring. that fat fuck he's lucky monica is probably a closet lesbian, so he doesnt have to worry about raising someone else child.
>>281930465at least that faggot Campbell might get his comeuppance via German artillery shell
>>281927304Genuinely in love with this woman.
>>281930596He'd be too old to serve.
>>281920839This much is true, at least back then they tended to be people who worked and contributed greatly to society as opposed to the likes of actors and other entertainers.
>>281920839I probably would choose a pompous feudal lord over a fucking techbro scammer jeet too honestly
level with me brosis Monica a dyke?
>>281920715I imagine "I'll make them run" as the fan translation of the line in lower left said by the coach driver wasn't the actual translation of the original Japanese?
>>281868097>sekai wo kakumei suru tame ni
>>281930774My mistake. It's William who said "I'll make them run". Forgot the coach driver warning about the the time.
>>281930774That isn't supposed to be the coach driver speaking, it's William. The fan translation may have got the command to hurry along the horses by making them run confused and come to the conclusion William was saying that he would make the trains run for him when he gets to the station even if they're done for the day.
>>281920284>>281920318Dear lord these two rival Dorothea in the pure sex department. And Mori clearly likes them as a contrasting yet complementary 2x1 combo.Imagine the... well, everything>>281920345That being said, Aurelia is still the most beuatiful one to me, even post haircut.
>>281930876Like I said in >>281930872, my apologies. Didn't realize it until it was too late. Though there is a ramification in the next chapter as to why William was in a big hurry that he was willing to make the trains run no matter what so I'll leave it there.
>>281920318how hasn't syphilis gotten this whore yet
>>281920299>she could have become head maidWho gives a shit? Is Adele autistic?
>>281930907>>281930596>>281930636He could get killed when the Germans start bombing the UK come World War I (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German_bombing_of_Britain,_1914%E2%80%931918). It's why the British Royal Family calls itself House of Windsor instead of House of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha.
>>281899557Yes
>>281920265>MORIIIIThis woman cannot be stopped, nor should she be
>>281920299is being the head maid really so prestigious compared to being the future matriarch of the Jones' family?
You wake up in 1900 as William after Emma has given birth to your second child so you've pounded her plenty, let's get that out of the way. Your wealth affords you some power and influence and you have to prevent WW1 from happening. What would you do?
>>281931055take a trip to Bosnia and smother Gavrilo Princip in his sleepez pz
>>281920331I got sudden visions of Worf from TNG, trying hard to be as Klingon as possible while being raised among humans, and ending up more Klingon than Klingon, adhering to every single custom and tradition about honor he could find, while his own people don't really give a shit and are by and large lax and hypocritical in their ways.
>>281920361People who have lots of such social engagements to do in the day and spend most of their time changing clothes.
>>281931095i still cant believe so many people died for motherfuckin bosnia. at least napoleon and hitler invaded half europe. ww1 was the most retarded war ever.
>>281920667>do as you willohh not a good idea billy boy
>>281921199At this point you should really study history to have your questions answered. Don't be dismissive of things that actually happened because you don't understand them from one or two sentence 4chan posts. Human civilization is complicated.
>>281920786There are 2 aspects of nouveau riche:First the accusation of being an upstart, which is nothing bad in reality.The other is having a conspicuous lifestyle of flaunting your wealth in the most vulgar way possible, which is a valid critique.
>>281921199>declining nobilityYou have to understand that this very CONCEPT was a completely alien idea to the western way of life. You're asking why people didn't live like modern society in the world where modern society didn't yet exist. What you are watching IS the slow gradual transition from the only way of life people knew for millennia into one that has scarcely exists for longer than a hair's breadth on the timeline.
>>281930774The official translation is correct, I think the fan translation mistook 走らせる (make [the carriage] go fast) as 走りさせる ([I] will make it run).
>>281931095Good idea to kill that motherfucker.But I fear, this would only shift the timeline for a couple of months or maybe years.The world was craving a war then and later they got it shoved down their throats.
>>281929157>>281929175>Invasive thought of the day: Mori's instruction to figure designers and hoping she gets what she wants are kind of like AI prompts
>>281930946It alters the mind to create a certain type of man that isn't her's.
>>281931293Sure, we're talking about a work of fiction, but I think the actual sentiment of people was close to what Mori describes.It probably took the information that noble officers ate their breakfast from silver platters while "commanding" thousands and thousands of commoners to run into Turkish machine gun fire at the Dardanelles. Or actually everywhere and on every side of the war.The Russians let them face the consequences best, but it didn't turn too well for them, either.
>>281931514see >>281930465
>>281920318>...the people's MariaI wonder what she actually said in German...."...die Volks-Maria" sounds funny and strange to modern ears, but maybe not so much 130 years ago.
>>281931535Really? Interesting.I wonder what ranks they were - probably young, low ranking commissioned officers leading charges across the no-man's-land.Some of them maybe from bullets to the back.
>>281930774It's funny how ingrained the fan translations have become among some of us readers so much so that these moments stick out. The translation may be wrong but the idea of William sort of flexing his influence over the railway right after the Viscount insulted his family was kind of cool. There are small moments like this why I still prefer the fan translations of both Emma and Otoyomegatari.
>>281927304>the sort of thing that would make me look like a different kind of pervert than I amShe's 13, so definitely yes.Though the figure must've been really lovely. I wonder if there are any pics available.Having a cute maid figure on a shelf would be fine - even in a non-sexual way, though I doubt that maids can ever be completely non-sexual.
>>281931049No she's just sad about the lost talent.Emma definitely is a good maid, but she has yet to prove that she can be a good wife as well.
>>281931668That begs the question as to how Mori made Japanese readers know where the Molders are speaking German, especially in a side story chapter centered on Wilhelm and Dorothea?
>>281931983The bubbles are always German shaped whenever they speak German.
>>281920251>>281920265>>281920284>>281920299>>281920318MR ADVERTISER GET DOWN
>>281932020Ah, yes. Didn't notice that, I only saw the brackets that had been added by the translation.But German bubbles are rectangular, English bubbles are round.
>>281920331Did those fans originate from the orient and became popular in Europe or was it some sort of convergent evolution?
>>281920284Those are some perky adeles.
>>281920762Overall a great chapter, naked maids, favorite characters and drama with the viscunt.Thanks OP, and thanks Mori.
>>281932138The former.
>>281927588>Eleanor deserved itNobody deserves a shitty father like hers.
>>281926391>AnklesGood heavens
>>281920345This page goes out to those anon wistful they didn't live in an era with more rigid codes of conduct and etiquette. You were always going to be fucked, sorry autists.
>>281920299I love Adele. Always earnest, never smiles, all strict and duty-driven.If I had a mansion to run, I'd also have a woman like her supervise a bunch of ditzy, light-hearted Tashas and Marias. The dynamic is just too lovely.
>>281932278This.Unrequited love is something an adult human has to be able to cope with.But having a shitty viscunt as a father is abuse.
>>281932357I mean, can you blame Monica for being completely overprotective of her when you see their dad?
>>281931768It has to be remembered that WWI was the first time most major armies realized the old school tactics of commanders leading a charge from the front wasn't going to cut it anymore. It was important, and effective, in the past because moral cohesion was built around a military leader literally leading. Moral was both built by and the support for the military aristocracy. Of course they got the good shit, they were the ones who would lead everyone in the fighting. It was their job to convince soldiers to fight and battles were won or lost not necessarily built on local material power but which side could be convinced not to break first. The casualties we see for battles are much, much smaller than you might expect, and a large part actually came from those who fled, making them easy prey for their attackers.But by the time of WWI, this was no longer true. No amount of moral cohesion will out fight a machine gun. Since it took time for this to really percolate through the hierarchy, it's unsurprising you saw the vast decimation of the young nobility. They would be the ones who needed to make a name for themselves and thus be the ones leading charges and in the most fatal areas of the fighting.
>>281932387No, probably not.She came across as far more likeable in the last few chapters.
>>281932462now we have the exact same feudalism from the middle ages except our aristocracy doesn't even have the dignity to go out and kill some fucking Muslims or Vikings for us
>>281932462I guess even in WWI there was a place for individual bravery and leadership. It's just that the upper echelons of the military often were totally oblivious about what happened on the battlefield.If you read "Storms of steel" by Ernst Jünger (not a noble, but certainly a young, ambitious officer) there is an idea about what tactics were working. And they did follow the ideal of the courageous officer leading the charge.
>>281932650Ernst Junger was far from the average soldier.The man was built different.
When will they make an anime of the steppes waifu manga?
>>281932748Might actually be impossible.
>>281932712Definitely.That's what leadership is about.
>>281932817Posting a better version.
>>281920920In her initial chapters there was the feeling that she could be interesting or like some kind of pseudo-modern woman bucking the trends of the day but lol no she's a complete fucking joke
>>281932872you just said the same thing twice
>>281927594>>281927723I had no idea I could feel this kind of affection for a person I will never meet
>>281931668The original says "Maria-san is... everybody's Maria-sama". A bit more openly sacrilegious than what the English TL went for. Lazy attempt:"Maria ist... die Maria von allen."
>>281932748The fact that there hasn't been one yet leads me to believe that there are certain standards Mori wants met, and hasn't had met.Personally I feel like the only way an adaptation can work out is via CGI (especially because of the horses), but CG would look too clinical and the anime would lose much of Otoyo's appeal.
>>281933106Oh you're right, English translation misses the connotations of the Japanese text.
>>281927594Jeremy Brett's Sherlock Holmes, too. I swear to god if I find out she's got some Third or Fourth Doctor fanart in here I will lose my shit
>>281933106It's actually a bit more euphemistic in Japanese. "Minna no ____" phrasing isn't necessarily sexual. It can be used to describe popular friendly people, celebrities, children's mascots, etc.
>>281912902>>281913220Giving your daughter everything she needs is the role of a dad, yes, not everything she wants. If you don't raise her properly, that's how you end up with an entitled adult woman who never stopped being a spoiled, rotten brat with princess syndrome.
>>281932831you are like little baby, watch thishttps://files.catbox.moe/yv7jfk.jpg
>>281920440Arthur is literally me
>>281933375It's not the "minna no" part that's questionable, silly.
>>281920753Why a health resort?
>>281933650It was called "sanitorium" in the fan translation. I assume the Viscount was being pragmatic and had Eleanor sent there because he knew Eleanor needed to be mentally fit for the next time she is to be engaged.
>>281927588Leave Colin out of this. He's the character who probably deserves it the least.
>>281930893>That being said, Aurelia is still the most beautiful one to me, even post haircut.Aurelia is a best. I'd even go as far as to say she's the perfect woman, even in her old age. She's so perfect. To the shallow aristocrats, she was a disgrace to high society. It requires someone like Richard who had to work for his wealth through his own capability to see her true value.
>>281928304It's too bad he's an asshole. If a woman has a strong, principled, firm father who's tough but loving, she'll look for a man like her father to marry.
>>281867887that looks like a european woman in european designed clothingwhy are japs so obsessed with europe?its not like the west makes shows or books or comics about japan.
No one tell this guy about the obsession with Asian culture in western media
See you next chapter Morichads.
>>281933914Above all, a firm parent has to make sure their child eventually understands why they're firm. Obviously tiny babbies won't get it, but a proper parent needs to instill their child with an understanding of restraint and punishment. It's no good just to be a tyrant. All you teach your kid is power and violence run things, and they'll never get it.
>>281930971She's got the workplace brainrot. Bangaihen, read it.
>>281931382It wasn't craving a war. It was just a powder keg of ignorance and new technology. The next war of any kind was always gonna be bad. The way to dodge an actual world war would have been starting that next war strategically so that no one would come help, but everyone would get to see just what an industrial war means. The same luxury we inadvertently provided the world by nuking Japan twice after their allies were stretched thin. Everyone got to see what nukes could do to actual people before everyone already had nuclear reactors and their own bombs tested to use without thinking in the next war.
>>281931096At least he was raised by Russians. Could play with a few bears and get in fights with local adults safely growing up.
>>281927594I can't imagine that translating well to Japanese. Americans have trouble with half of it. Must be a good rewrite.
>>281933236I'll bet she played all those Holmes games by that Russian devteam w/ the homoromantic subtext.
>>281933966It is, this author in particular is freak, and yes we do.
>>281868227Like a boss.
Is Mori specifically an Angloboo or just a general Westaboo
