Couldn't find a thread for it, so here is chapter 37Chapter 37: A New Life Begins
>>292141433Oh shoot, I'm a few chapters behind. I kinda just assumed the scan guy was busy
>>292141433Thank you for posting.
>>292141652Well this particular chapter wasn't done by the usual guy, so you're kinda right.
>>292141433Anime soonhttps://x.com/ootakemasao/status/2031298387690291344/>>292141652Seems to have been dropped by them, but now there's an anime in the works might get more regular updates
Done.This translation kinda sucks ass...
>>292141884Thanks for the dump>Translation sucksYeah, there were some sentences I rewrote and fixed as I read them
>>292141761>ĐÍNH ĐONGSurprise Vietnamese SFX
>>292141433Damn, this isn't anon's release.
>>292141433Holy shit, finally back!In the meantime, Akane got officially translated up to chapter 23.
>>292143747>Akane got officially translated up to chapter 23.Oh hell yeah
>new TL teamDamn. I feel like an asshole to be unhappy with the TL quality but I'm glad to have something at all
>>292143747That conan-esque misaki chapter is great
>>292141884>>292141864I like smug Junichi
>>292144791Why do you feel like an asshole?
>>292145015I don't like to criticize the hand that feeds me
>>292146450How will they learn they're shit if they aren't told?
>>292147803My worldview is of detached cynicism. They never learn.
>>292147803Yeah criticism is required. I don't like it too much but it's needed
>>292141433Oh hell yeah
>>292147823Man I wish I had your mindset
>>292141884Translations are really rough but it's been half a year since the last translations so I understand someone giving it a shot. Sucks though since I really liked our translator.
>>292141729lmao every time
>>292148757Haven't seen him on discord in a couple weeks, so maybe he died or something
>>292148757>>292147803They received some feedback so they'll probably improve moderately at least. I'm not expecting the best though.
>>292148854>this post got nukedHuh?
>>292149032Sorry, I buggered off to do something else while I was waiting for it to delete>>292141761>this page got nuked and it deserve itwhat did he mean by this?
>>292141433LIVE
>>292143747Thanks for the heads up about Akane, I had no idea
>>292141433Thanks. I need to get back into it. I took a break after the chapter when the girl swapped bodies with the mafia guy and was shown dying because it upset me and I forgot to pick it back up.
>>292149263It's a very dark manga
>>292149336Yeah. I was expecting Hinamatsuri style hijinks and was not mentally prepared.
>>292149336That scene is about as dark as it gets, though I haven't read any of the non-translated chapters so I can't comment on thatI don't think you're meant to dwell on that particular scene very much, they certainly don't in text, that assassin needed to have a little girls body too but also not have the baggage of the actual little girl so the boss / assistant <-> Little girl / Mom dynamic could happenIt was still fucking grim though, yeah...
>>292149574>>292149408I was making a joke because anons kept trolling that one guy who said the manga was grimdark kek. It's a dark scene but it's not taken 100% straight so it never bothered me.Actually I'd argue some Hinamatsuri scenes were darker despite having less crazy violence. Like Uchako licking Hitomi's shoes...
>>292141433More cuteness doko?
>>292149661No cutenessOnly darkness now
>>292141620sick
>busy irl and too exhausted to get back into scanlating>check in on /a/>see both series i worked have been taken over by other groupsi'm so sorry anons. i truly wish i could get back into it and promise you all a release, especially since i have 250 pages of akane already cleaned and redrawn and partial translations done for the next chapter or two of akane and J<->M, but i don't know when i'll be able to find time and energy to commit to anything, i'm glad you all have something at least i wish i could say this christmas holiday but i have little faith in that with my schedule
>>292151632didn't ask
>>292151632Damn, your release was much better but don't overwork yourself. Good luck with that.
>>292141662What does that face convey?
>>292149619As someone who hasn't been in these threads in a while, I did not expect that to become a meme
>>292151632I'll say I know how exhausting it can feel to scanlate, even as someone who doesn't even have to do the TL portion, so it's appreciated.
The new girl in Akane was made for irrumatio
>>292149661cheeks being pressed together is mega cute
>>292149106>>this page got nuked and it deserve it>what did he mean by this?I think he means all the shitty redraws.
>>292141789He's going to ruin ever girl's reputation
>>292151632It's ok buddy. I'm glad you're still alive and communicative.
>>292154665She was a loaner before. It's like going from $0 to debt. Not that bad.
>>292151632Glad to see you're still around friend. Well it's fine for Akane since it's an official TL and probably good enough but the new J-M guys aren't quite up to par. Anyway, take care of yourself and feel free to share if you make something, it's very appreciated!
>>292141433about time
>>292141620Absolute scum. Love him
>>292141729Man at least scrape it off the table before it sets into the wood
>>292149117Ok, I'll give you one bump.
>>292141433>>292141620don't let middle school girls(men) drink cooking sake, anons!>>292141875is... is this yuri manga now, my dudes?
>>292141569At this point, would it be better to just explain to Mama what's going on?
>>292159514It would have been better to tell her from the start actually, getting her involved in this mess now puts her in danger as wellThe less she knows the better
>>292159572>Telling her when she was at her helicopter-estThat sounds like a bad idea
>>292141433Fuck I almost missed it
>>292159514Would she believe it now that she thinks her daughter is a schizo?
>>292141877That rocks! Still waiting for season 2 of Hina though!
>>292141701Poor sensei
>>292141457what is this caveman english
>>292141510Complicated feeling, huh.
>>292141555>>292141569mama...
>>292141620at least he's in the safety positionkinda
>>292164433it's very literal since names can be used as 2nd person pronouns in japanese. most of the "mei"s should be "you"
>>292149661hnnnnnnnnng
>>292141729>>292141620What's the term for the opposite of hard-boiled?
>>292164607The third person is the least of the problems with thst page.
>>292164807Moe
>>292141612>>292141620>>292141729>>292141747How dare he treat best girl's body like that! He's a middle-aged scum
He puked most of it up, but what the fuck was he thinking? May as well hit the Jack Daniels in Megumi's body if he's this cavalier.
>>292165298Feeling sentimental about his dead friend.
>>292164807Over-easy
>>292165298Considering how careless he is with other aspects of people's lives, I'm a little surprised he didn't drink in her body. All the justification he needed to drink in Mei's body was "I'd already started drinking by the time I was this age."
>>292166471If he drank in Megumi's body Mommy would kill him Mei lives aloneHe also started drinking immediately when he switched with....whatshername's bodyJ is a functional alcoholic.
>>292166533>functional
>>292166533>whatshernameMaryCome to think of it, they're all M names.
>>292164433i just checked and this was what i had for this chapter's translation. i haven't double checked it and it's rough at points, but hopefully it helps. the way i write things down, i use triple asterisks separate dialog from different panels. the page numbers are from the comicwalker version of the chapter as well.https://pastebin.com/KN7cxFxE
>>292159514If Hinamatsuri has taught me anything is that committing to the bit is a fundamental law of the universe
>>292164807raw
it's been 7 months so BUMP>>292143747sankyuu
>>292168384this is pretty good anon, I read the chapter with it
>>292141433fuck yeahhhh
>>292151632much love anon
>>292141433Ty op
new chapter came out
Like a great man said once
>>292175929She really is cute...
>>292176142Get away from her! She's too pure for us, she has to stay away from a shady place like 4chan...
>>292175681NIiiiiiiiiiiice!Dumping. I'm starting to like prez more
>>292176685Don't you? To make sure it's zeroed and everything?
>>292176969Kojima never thought of that, he'd be jealous
>>292176847this woman
>>292176779>* with no TN NoteI HATE when translators do this
>>292177266she is too pure for this world
>>292178606he
>>292176685lol
This is as based as J has been in a long time.
>>292177266>now I got in this mess from murdering an entire clan>but you know, I think the problem might be that I didn’t murder ENOUGH
>>292177164How responcible
>>292177266>If I kill all my enemies, I winJ is so cute.
>>292177232>>292177253>>292177266J truly is a based retard. Why is he nose bleeding though?
>>292181068He tripped>>292177192
>>292181068he fell off before climbing his way back up
kek
>>292176983>>292177007smart way to break out of a web. Which movie was it from?
>>292181067J is literary the evil version of Justin Trudeau. Both their name began with J even.
Goddamn, AI TLs are a thing now
>>292177094Using his gun might be his specialty, but you're telling me J doesn't know how to do a frontal choke properly?
>>292181726He got blindsided
>>292177266If he just keeps killing clans everything will work out eventually.
>>292176969NANIIIIIII?
>>292176685>using a stranger's stuff without permission isn't rightRare moment of self-awareness from J.
>>292183999Yeah he just fucked up that poor girl's body by drinking himself to sleep with it
think it’s worth holding out for the JJA chapters to get their own threads, or am I better off just reading it on my own?
>>292184189I could create a dump if people are interested, maybe after this J-M thread dies though?It's 16 chapters and the TLs are sadly MTL but mostly good (I'd say about as good as the latest J-M chapter.Maybe a daily JJA could be fun too, 3 chapters a day or something.
The translation this chapter seemed a lot better than the last one.>>292177066It's easy to believe J having the coordination for moves like this, but have a hard time Mei having the fitness for it. To get her ankle out of the loop, he'd need to put all of her bodyweight on one arm.
>>292184469>The translation this chapter seemed a lot better than the last one.Yeah the TL team received feedback and had some proofreaders this time.>have a hard time Mei having the fitness for itDidn't he pull off some crazy climbing in Megumi's body as well?
Guys..This manga...It's kind of dark...
Holy fucking shit. Akane is GOOD
>>292184733Pretty fucked up desu senpai
>>292184921I was initially unimpressed with Akane but it's definitely come into its own as its gone on and I'm really enjoying it now.
>>292184287I think that’s a good approach if you do it. I’d be down.
>>292141433I'm just happy domeone else picked it up. Hope thry do Akane too.
>>292184189Jja?
>>292187926joshikousei joureishi akane
>>292187926Ohtake’s other ongoing title is called Joshikōsei Joreishi Akane!
>>292184189>>292184287Where are you seeing the new chapters? I can only find the old one. I'd love a daily too but 3 chspters a day might be a bit much, I've always found 1 chapter a day creates the best discussion.
>>292177149>the brat in charge of disciplinepfft.
Can someone remind me who Seira is and what her deal is with Gunsmith Girl? And can somrone remind me who is in who's body.
>>292184287Allegedly MangaMillion isn’t AI.
>>292188799Seira worked for the cleaner (run by the brownish loli) and was gunsmith girl's only friend in the private girl school. Yakuza wants to deal with J so they sent Seira to kidnap gunsmith girl.
I realize we have a non-0 chance of meeting the Yakuza boss' grandkid who we never see in Hinamatsuri
>>292184506>>292184469We can just assume he can suppress their limits thanks to Adrenaline and they'll be fucked up in the morning
>>292182514>>292180848>>292181067He's risking running into Nitta at this rate.J maybe be a wild animal but he's got nothing on the blood thirsty demon of the Reiwa era
>>292184469All that posture training must've been hell of an isometric workout
>>292190062It's most likely a simple case of suspension of disbelief, but I have a crippling case of STEMitis, so I am compelled to point out when physics don't make sense.
>>292184921I think I like Akane more than JM
>>292141884Thank OP
>>292141433Glad to see this is getting ENG translations againwe're like five chapters behind the spanish ones
>>292141475Fucking lel>>292141530VERY hardboiled >>292141569Poor Mama
>>292141612>>292141620>TWO whole bottles of cooking sake in a 15 year old's bodyWhat a champ; I'm surprised he made it this far
>>292141672Mei seems pretty happyMaybe she'll refuse to return Megumi's body?
>>292141729J is seriously the fucking best
>>292176876J has some natural moe
>>292176969Instant look of PTSD on Seira's face
>>292177094>since I don't have any weapons this is going to hurt quite a bitpretty gruesome considering he's strangling a 16 year old girl who he considers to be a peer and friend
>>292177232HARDCORE
