Read the 14th volume of Tabitabi. Two chapters stand out from the yuri side of things:

Chapter 3:
>But here, in this city, Elaina had made just one friend—someone she liked so much that she went out to dinner with her almost every night.
>“Ah, I love you,” said the other girl. “Keep stroking my hair; it’s so nice. Want to get married?”
>The friend in question was sitting across from Elaina at a slightly pricey restaurant, her eyes half-lidded. “You’re so cute,” she continued. “Really cute. I could just eat you up.” On second thought, perhaps she was gazing at Elaina like a beast looks at its prey.
>Elaina seemed unconcerned.
This one had a sweet ending with Elaina stroking the other girl's hair and will only stop if Sena gives her money.

Chapter 7:
>“Let’s go, Elaina.” She turned around and flashed me a bold smile.
>My goodness. We may both be women, but I must say she looked quite dashing just now.
Maybe Elaina has a soft spot for tomboys? Come to think of it, Saya/Amnesia are pretty boyish as well.
>>
Can anyone tell me the exact volume and chapter in Adashima where Adachi left home and her mom?
>>
>>4314688
>the final volume
I'll need the source on that, don't frighten me like this... All I can see that has any resemblance to the word "final" is the tweet where Ogawa says 完成度を上げていく(~= I'll be polishing it up, in reference to the finished draft).

I finished reading it today. Karoline was really cool, and I loved how she said that she would wake up if Elaina kissed her. Elaina really needs to start taking advantage of girls who throw themselves at her feet like that.

Doesn't anybody else miss a simple story where two girls meet, fall in love and start dating?
I feel like recent series all have some crazy/absurd gimmick to draw attention.
Buying your classmate, twotiming the school's idols, hating your childhood friend, substituting the girl you love with her little sister...
I've finished Suki na ko no imouto and it could simply be the story of Yuika and Mimi. Nagisa barely did anything until the very end of the volume which is very, very forced. At the beginning MC says that even if they're sisters they're different but in the end all it takes is a pair of contact lens and a tie of a different colour? Turning down the girl you love because you have to study is also incredibly forced and so is the incest kiss at the end though there won't be anyone against it (very based).
Not really a complaint since as long as it's yuri anything goes and more yuri we have the better it is, but I crave more simple stories like AdaShima. We've got a lot of them in manga but not in LN, LN always go for crazy settings.
>>

Not really since I've already read so many of those for the last 25 years. I somewhat get what you mean, but most of the time those gimmicks exist to skip to the "good" part and create a dramatic arc. They're not all hits, naturally but I prefer this variety we have right now.

It would depend on the writing skill of the author.
OsaKano, Koi yori aoku, Shy... all the same but all different and all good and gay.

>>4325106 (me)
Oh, I've seen only now that the second volume is already scheduled for December, so it'll be at least three volumes and I don't know if only one more volume is enough to cover the whole first volume of the novel so maybe it'll be at least 4 volumes like Wasureenu majo.

I avoided Iruma's teacher-student bishit like the plague and read Yukiko's teacher-student one (放課後の教室に、恋はつもる。) instead but I ended up getting the same shit.
One third of the volume is the teacher being miserably in love with her old straight teacher, even after she got married and got pregnant.
The second third is about how the student had one hundred boyfriends (and her hetslut mother had one thousand men) but don't worry because she never liked them, because people can normally date, flirt, touch, being touched and kiss people they're not attracted to, that's perfectly normal.
And then the last part of the volume is the student being blackmailed by one of her ex-boyfriends into dating again or he will expose the teacher gave her a ride on her car. And a few pages from the end you have the student risking to be raped by him.
Then it ends like it started, because the whole story was a flashback, with the two of them that don't have any kind of relationship other than being teacher and student. Because the student says she's in love with the teacher after she saved her from being raped, but the teacher won't consider her. She acts like a proper teacher... except the moments when she goes full retard and brings a student to her home.
Also the student that goes from being annoyed by her ex-boyfriend who keeps insisting to get back together and that he will make her fall in love with him despite he's been rejected everytime, to doing the exact same thing herself with the teacher, like using the very same words.
What a bad writing and what a bad story. I would have appreciated a warning, at least Iruma is honest since he tells you already from the title.

Thoughts on this?
Author is Uesu Tetsuto (Testament of Sister New Devil)
Illustrator is Chigusa Minori (Convenient Semi-Friend)

I assume that just because Chigusa is involved with it doesn't guarantee it's yuri

The summary seems to indicate it's a yuri romance, the author a long time ago did do a yurish novel but I would rather wait for reviews to be sure.

I may actually read it if the story is Takasora getting the JK and the bislut remaining unhappy alone. I mean, unhappy with the man she decided to marry. But seeing their height I'm afraid she will go for the bislut instead.
Seriously though, don't get Takasora involved with this shit, poor girl suffered enough already.

3000 copies for a yuri LN in 3 days sounds good to me. Taking two spots in top 10 up to the 4th place sounds very good. Though it depends on the week. There are weeks where you need at least 4000/5000 copies just to take the 10th place, this was a calm week so they could rank with only 3000 copies. In the past both AdaShima and Urasekai ranked with 4000/4500 copies too. It depends also on the day they are released. This is the rank for the week from the 4th to the 10th of November and AdaShima was released on the 8th, if it was released on the 4th it would have ranked higher with more copies.

>勇者の旅の裏側で
> The voice audio seems to imply something is going on but it may also simply treat it as a joke.
There's a kiss at the end and they definitely like each other. End of vol.1 leads into a continuation so there's room for development. There's also a second voice drama that covers the chapter with the kiss in a QR code on the obi with a physical copy.

> The fact they're going to save the hero doesn't sound very promising either.
The hero is female so nothing to worry about. One member of the hero's party is male but there's not enough focus on them to imply anything and I doubt they'll get in the way of the main pair's relationship.

Never thought I would read a book where a girl launches a biologically-produced nuclear bomb out of her anus, but I guess the yuri genre is full of surprises. It was nice that Youko's reward for getting killed and reincarnating umpteenth times was to get a JK girlfriend, seems like a good exchange to me. It was sweet to see Dyaus and Ganapati get together, too.

Amazon has changed the release date for Female General and Eldest Princess from December 20 to "We will email you as soon as we have a delivery date." which I guess means "dunno lol". I'm a little annoyed because I have time off for Christmas after December 20th so I was looking forward to reading it and I even adjusted my reading schedule to ensure that I wouldn't be in the middle of a big book when it arrived so I could read it immediately.

The publisher is suing the translator, it seems like the translator didn't secure the rights to the original work properly so the publishing company is kind of screwed unless it can secure the rights for the book themselves. When it was first announced I thought it would be as easy as cleaning up and publishing the fan translation, I guess not. My preorder now has a date of January 24, but I'm assuming that's just a guess on amazon's part until the mess gets sorted out or the books get canceled.

I'm going to be honest, not sure how people actually thought the book would see light of day considering all the controversy surrounding most of the parties involved in this. When the two titles were announced on Twitter, even scrolling down to the comments or looking at the QRTs, a couple of people said similar things. Even in other communities too.
The one most likely to release atm is the one from Seven Seas.

I just want my girl Tilty to get her own girlfriend already. She's obviously so miserable because she's still a virgin surrounded by horny lesbians and even the het girl got married so I think it would be in the queendom's best interests to find her a girlfriend before she goes nuts and kills people. The only pussy she ever sees is when she gives her medical examinations to the non-humans and whenever Anis comes back from Anusville the detached palace smells like such rancid pussy that they have to open up the windows to air the place out. Would Ilia be okay with Lainie taking Tilty as a concubine, or would she be too jealous? If not, Tilty could always take Lumi as a hag loli wife, or Anis could give Priscilla to Tilty to fuck Priscilla over and prevent her from ever being Euphie's maid, and Tilty can have a girlfriend that can match her snarkiness.

FWIW I'm 2600 pages into it and there hasn't been any het.

There's already a precedent with Hidan no Aria AA.
And it's not uncommon for harem series to get spinoffs that follow the heroines (see: Railgun) it's just more unusual for them to have an entirely new cast new plot and not feature the main series harem protagonist in a prominent role and to lean more into yuri teasing.

Not sure how Hidan no Aria AA ended but I seem to remember remember the side pairing (Raika and Kirin) ended up as an official couple.

Its a shoujo harem with female love interests, if that description doesn't turn you off it might be for you. The first volume is pretty bad, but it gets gradually better from the second volume onwards once it figures out what it wants to be beyond "Mass-market suitable Arioto".
The books can be pretty funny and Renako very charming once you get to know her.

You mean other translated works from the writer of The Dragon? Jianghu Demolition Squad?

I read about 60 chapters before I stopped because I caught up with the translation back then and forgot to continue on.
There's a lot of threats of rape and violence toward the protagonist very early on. She never gets raped, but there's an instance she was close to. I didn't think it was graphic, just her clothes getting ripped off and then being saved in time. Outside of the protagonist, there's mentions of rape and one scene that's written more in detail involving the progtagonists mother that she sadly witnesses.

I just checked again and luckily the translator puts warnings at the start of the chapter. If you can get by the maybe the first 20 chapters, you're golden.

It's a pretty bog standard harem though, nothing different about it. Every female, be it sister, maid, fiancee, detective, they all end up being interested in MC one way or another, usually for ridiculously flimsy reasons. That's a staple harem trope.
The fact that a couple of the haremettes show some interest in each other is pretty minor, especially when it's never strong enough to rival their feelings for the MC.

Not sure
From what I can discern from the synopsis, Yuki (MC) is staying with Tsukasa who is tutoring her. She’s actually annoyed by Tsukasa’s clinginess. Yuki catches Tsukasa kissing another girl in the park.
Yuki’s friend Yuri thinks that Yuki staying at Tsukasa’s house is cheating (maybe she knows Tsukasa has a girlfriend?)

I can only assume there’s some context missing from the MTL. I assume Tsukasa is the one who is two-timing and Yuki is just now finding out?

>>4344604
It means the protagonist is a massive sperg about love and romance for backstory reasons.
Its real and definite yuri, no worries there, but I tell you right away that her dancing around the issue was pretty headache inducing right before they fucked . Even if it has IC justification why she is like that.
No idea how its gonna be handled in Volume 9.

Without looking at the quoted post I assumed this was about Majo to Tabitabi, because surely nobody nowadays would doubt that Otherside Picnic is yuri. I can assure you that it is very very gay, even if several people have to spell it out to Sorawo that she is indeed gay.

It honestly felt to me the author was ashamed to write just a regular protagonist with self esteem issues and he decided he would give a convoluted reasoning to Sorawo because in his head he was writing a very complex character, while everyone else just attributes it to autism and moves on. While I am happy it's not the case, it would make far more sense if Sorawo was in fact abused like Toriko assumed.

She was abused. But the story is told from her perspective and she doesn't think of herself as a victim.

I personally always assumed sofar she was, in fact, abused. Which is why what I consider the IC reason for her downright pathological rejection of "romance". Like somewhere in her head, trauma made her associate conventional romance with something very negative to make her 'this' autistic about rejecting it under that name. It really makes little sense to me if she's just supposed to be, I don't even know, that hung up on the first kind of positive relationship she had and she thinks changing its nature would make it less secure?

Until proven otherwise, I still think Toriko was right on the money with thinking Sorawo has suppressed trauma she tries to rationalise the fuck out of to not have to confront.
>>
Kinda disappointed by AdaShima 12.
Except for the very sweet last chapter, the rest is all about other... worlds? Universes? Timelines? They should have made a side volume like the SS/99.9 ones and call it "if" or "Yashiro no fushigi na bouken".
In particular I didn't like the first chapter with loli Shimamura and adult Adachi. Not only their personalities don't match the ones we know with an assertive Shimamura and a calm, rational Adachi, but also because until now the other parallel worlds had them still being equal in age but this chapter shows them born in different years, implying there may be parallel worlds where they are born in different ages so they can't meet.
But I liked to read about how the world would end if they don't meet and, ironically, it was Yashiro trying to keep her promise to almost cause the end of the universe.
>>
>>4345306
I assume there is probably a range for the age difference.
>>
>>4345104
I mean, I guess it depends what type of abuse we are talking here, I always thought Toriko was implying sexual abuse, if we go over Sorawo's story we know about, assuming it even happened as she remembers, she was abused, just not sexually.
>>
>>4345584
I'm fairly sure there was at least an attempt at sexual assault. Or one of those "parents offering their kid to the cult leader" things.
>>
>>4345690
Wasn't Sorawo meant to be someone important to the cult? Though yes, every single cult eventually turns into just an excuse for the higher ups to fuck girls (and boys).

Not that I remember, but I should probably re-read over the holidays, its been a while since then. In my head I still have the vague idea stuck that the Red Man situation reeked of SA victim 'cope' and that Sorawo almost certainly burned her house down.
>>
>>4345914
It's the implication, but the whole story is so suspicious it may be all a fabrication,
>>
Personally I don't really think it's implied that it was sexual assault, although she was certainly harassed and abused. I feel like the story kind of stops short of implying sexual assault but doesn't go as far as driving off that last little bit of doubt in your mind.

Anyway Sorawo is not a reliable narrator. Also, Toriko is a complete sweetheart doing things like reading lots about how to help sex assault victims.
>>
>>4346421
It's likely Sorawo whole story is some otherside fabrication anyway
>>
>>4346426
>fabriacation
Possibly, but then again the author like real IRL horror stories/netlore and cults are, seemingly, commonly a part of that stuff in Japan.

Or maybe the Otherside just got to her and her surroundings a lot earlier than we though, it would make sense if her family, their cult and her experiences were influenced by it. I mean the redman which appeared to her in her younger days might not just be an original mental fabrication of Sorawo's that was later used by the Otherside but an actual entity playing the long game.
>>
>>4346435
It may actually be possible to search japanese creepypasta and see if something fits
>>
>>4346421
Something about her backstory made her so antsy about conventional romance and love. I didn't get the feeling its sexual relations she has a issue with, which you'd expect from a sexual assault victim. She's just oddly terrified of partnership.
I'd chalk it up to the common "special relationship" of yuri stories, that is the legacy of 50s censorship but the author has been way too direct in talking about homosexuality for that to be the reason here.
>>
>>4346534
I think it stems from her misanthropy, she has a certain bitterness towards the normal world and society. Other than that I can't really find any good reason in the novels for her to look down on conventional romance, and deny its validity and dept, so much and frankly I don't think we are supposed to think she has a valid reason. I think it's a subconscious rejection that manifests in the opions we see her hold; because she's not so dumb that she thinks that, even if they have a conventional or typical partnership, either her or Toriko are 'normal' people. And it's people that Sorawo dislikes (not really individuals as a whole though, only the odd specific one here and there, she dislikes people as a collective thing)

She's very hung up on how genuine and deep their relationship is, I like and respect that because it's a romantic's sense of value. However she makes the mistake of actually keeping the two of them from growing closer because for a while she fails, and perhaps also refuses, to recognize that adding the lovers attribute to their relationship actually makes them closer still, even by her estimations, once she gets her head around what Toriko actually means and thinks. The reason she clung so hard to the semantics, the definition of their relationship as "acomplices", is because Toriko expressed her belief that was the closest possible relationship; Sorawo probably didn't have an opinion on what the actual closest relationship is or what it was called, once she found Toriko what was important was what Toriko thought was the closest. She subconsciously fell in love more or less right away through a combination of Toriko's beauty, their quickly growing friendship and comradery in exploring her sole interest (otherside & creepyshit); but like a dumbass she didn't realize for a while that's actually what she felt or that she was super obvious about feeling it. So Toriko saying they were the closest things ever was just the reassurance she needed.

I've never been raped or assaulted but I'm so anti-touch that I have been asked by partners before if I was a sexual assault victim because I freeze up during horny time and I have to explain that I'm just very anti-touch and it takes me months to warm up to someone before I'm comfortable with being touched so I could really relate to Sorawo a lot in that part of the book. I'm so anti-touch that when I saw the movie Boy in the Bubble I wanted my own friggin bubble too.

I loved AdaShima SS2. It's full of sweet moments but also has parts important for the story like confirming Shimamura's mom knows about AdaShima dating and Nagafuji/Hino after graduation. And, unless I'm reading too much into it, a couple of phrases seem to imply AdaShima have sex. Honestly, this should've been volume 12 instead of that "if" volume.
It's weird Iruma didn't write any afterword for either volume, I expected him to explain why he decided to continue the story after he said volume 12 was the last.

Vol 7 quick summary (part 1)
Story starts off where vol 6 ended and Renako returns home, and confronts Haruna about the reason she's playing truant, but Haruna denies it. Mai and Lucy's engagement is announced, and there's a commotion at school the next day. Mai tells the others it was her mother's doing. Haruna's 2 friends chase Renako around since she stood them up the day before, but Renako refuses to talk about her past. Renako receives an invite to her middle school reunion but ignores it. Haruna starts going to school again.
Later, when Renako has nothing to do after school, she runs into Yoko and offers to help carry her stuff. They go over to Yoko's apartment, and Renako learns Yoko is working for Lucy. Lucy is terrible at housework and spills milk over Yoko and Renako. Yoko takes the opportunity to try and seduce Renako as part of her mission to break up Renako and Mai, but Satsuki comes and interrupts them.
Haruna's 2 friends find Renako again, and tell her that Haruna is acting aloof in school even when she's started going again. Renako invites Haruna to go on a date with her to the zoo, and then confronts her about her recent actions. Haruna reveals it was to avoid rumors of Renako being a hikkikomori in the past from spreading.
Renako resolves to erase the rumors by going to the reunion. She reveals her past to the quintet (only kaho is shocked) and get their help with a makeover - Mai with clothes, Ajisai with makeup, and Kaho to hypnotize her with confidence. Kaho reveals it's the last time Renako can use the self-hypnotism confidence trick.
>>
>>4349337
part 2
Renako goes to the reunion and impresses people, but Nashiji doesnt show up. Nashiji's old friends invite Renako out, but Renako refuses them and gives them a speech on why they suck, then a crossdressing Satsuki shows up, kisses Renako, and takes her away.
Renako tells Satsuki her plan is half-finished because Nashiji didnt show up, so Satsuki helps her find the place by asking Yoko.
Renako goes to Nashiji's huose and finds out she's a truant. Renako confronts Nashiji who admits there wasnt really any good reason why they bullied Renako. and apologises. She agrees not to tell anyone about Renako's past, and Renako says she'll forget Nashiji. Before she leaves, she tells Nashiji not to make her little sister worry.
Renako and Haruna sleep together (not in lewd way), and Haruna tells Renako she told Mai her reason for playing truant was because rumors go away after a certain number of days.
Later on, Haruna has made up with her friends, and the three of them comfort Renako as they think Mai has dumped her for Lucy. Haruna offers to be Renako's girlfriend.
Mai confronts her mother about the announcement. Satsuki talks with Mai, and offers to pretend to be her lover so her mother will call off the engagement, though she warns her Lucy won't give up. Mai agrees, though she doesn't notice Satsuki's ulterior motives.
Next volume will be the end of season 2 (assuming it doesnt get split)

Finished 新しくできたお姉さんは、百合というのが好きみたい.
So weird reading such a rapey author talking about 多様性 and in fact the story was something I sure the twitter citizens would call "grooming".
Nothing original, the usual setting with two parents remarrying and their daughters becoming sisters. The sisters are adults instead of schoolgirls, but at least one of them behaves exactly like one so there's not really any difference, the author probably opted for it because he needed an excuse to make the father tell the daughter to go live alone.
From the title, discovering the older sister likes "something called" yuri seems to be the main theme of the story, however she isn't even hiding it, tells the younger sister to read the books in her room hoping she would like them, and the little sister does just that, reads them, likes them and told the older sister she likes them.
The rest of the story is the older sister always trying to touch the younger one because she likes her but doesn't want to ruin their relationship. Eventually the younger sister finds out the older one is a lesbian, switches on the brain and goes like "oh, right, gay people exists, I've never thought about it while reading my sister's yuri manga, who could've thought that my dear sister that keeps touching me was gay?" and after learning her sister was in love with her "oh, shit, I was always gay and in love with my senpai at school".
Well, you can't really expect good writing from this author, but it's definitely better than Kare nanka yori that, speaking of which, the author mentioned in the afterword is getting a manga adaption but I can't find anything on google. Why though? It's a one-shot story from years ago and wasn't even popular. And why now? Maybe there's still hope for Hatsukoi aite's manga, anime and drama adaptions.

I have zero interest in ever touching anything High School DxD related (and I don't expect it to have good yuri), but you probably haven't explored female otaku circles enough if you still think liking or making goofy over the top anime boob stuff is purely a "male-brained" trait.
>>
>>4337878
For what it's worth, original DxD was one of the best harem works I've seen since the author achieved that extremely rare condition of every girl being great and none annoying enough to wish deprivation of screentime. Het ecchi is stuck in my teens though, so is this one really /u/ or just yuribait?
>>4338249
>she also hates boobs
Incredulously Based. The one thing that always irked me about DxD was the heroines' unholy cup sizes.
>>
>>4351685
I used to complain about "too-big boobs" long ago since I picked it up from 4chan & wanted to fit in but now I realize it's not about the size in a vacuum at all, it's about how you draw them and how it meshes with the character's body overall. I wasn't not too familiar with DxD since I always just thought of it as a hetero franchise but I googled it and the characters with the biggest boobs are nowhere near as generally anatomically egregious as say Nodoka in modern Saki anime's still not particularly well drawn overall but yeah

Honestly I quickly skimmed & misread >>4336957 this post and thought the spinoff had a male protagonist. Now I am kind of interested and that art looks relatively more appealing than the anime I associate the franchise with anyway.
>>
>>4351691
My bias against oversized oppai originates from watching too many anime where the heroine with large breasts was just a mindless fanservice sow, so I was conditioned by the industry to identify it as a glaring redflag of bad female character development, preferring the modest-sized heroines with screentime written to be made relevant through more creative traits. It's also one of the reasons I got into Yuri in the first place.

Some people just want a plate full of fanservice and I get it so I'm not vocal against this kind of character archetype, but to me watching fanservice that always rely on "boob comedy" is about as tedious as scenes where characters eat 2d food and shout "Oishii!" at the top of their lungs and go on to describe in excruciating detail how delicious it is.

I've read Yonin seishimai yurimonochou (四人制姉妹百合物帳) that started with a character using "boku" which immediately made me roll my eyes because I still have to see one girl using "boku" in real life. However my expectations were betrayed but not in a good way because the character using "boku" was, in fact, a boy. Yes, the POV of this novel is a boy. A boy that doesn't appear anywhere in the illustrations nor in the description. This was already enough to get me mad but it got worse. So to make it simple the story is this boy meeting a girl that narrates him the stories of her older sister in a girls-only school. The stories themselves have only girls, though they're absurd and looks like the typical male fantasy of girls-only schools with girls playing with each other's nipples and showing each other's shaved pussy, without any hint of romance and with the occasional disgusting het joke. And between a story and the other you have the, obviously sexual, reactions of this adolescent boy and it's fucking disgusting. You would also ask why a girl would talk with a boy about shaved pussies but it's clear the author isn't interested in writing a serious story.
This honestly felt like Kotozaki-san, a boy and a girl together talking about stories that are not even yuri but just "weird" and it left a very bad taste. Lately I've been reading satisfying novels so I had forgotten how bad it is when you end up with such shit in your hands.
>>
>>4354638
It goes as far as making a girl lift up her own skirt out of her own will in front of the male teacher, showing him the pubic hair and telling him to check himself if she was shaved or not.
Despite they run away from boys they say unthinkable dirty jokes, talk about getting boyfriends and getting married.
Despite they grope and show each other their pussies and say how beautiful they are they don't show any romantic or physical attraction.
And just when you lost even the last, small bit of hope you had because a girl said to the other girl to bring her future boyfriend to their trip together, it suddenly went full gay with the same girl saying she will become her wife if she will fail to get into college and the other girl replies by kissing her.
And it doesn't stop there, reveailing the kouhai was also in love with the same girl, and the main girl, the one who was talking with the boy at the beginning of every chapter, was also in love with that kouhai. What?
But you don't have time to be surprised by the sudden 180 turn that they immediately go back to talk about dating boys.
And then they start confessing and get rejected because they're "sisters".
At the end it goes back to be fully dumb with shaving a girl in front of 30 other girls like it's a normal thing in girls-only schools.
In the afterword the author says he was in a boys-only highschool, to nobody's surprise seeing his totally useless and unnecessary self-insert in the story, and that women find his vision of girls-only schools unrealistic. No shit.
Terrible writing. How the hell was this picked up for publication?

Kiki is my favorite fantasy author but hearing this mf say "The next Omaegotoki volume will release soon™ until then sayonara gaijin" for years on end got me motivated to translate the WN chapters and then binge-read everything MTLed. I can say it was definitely worth it because the LN is SO far behind the peaks of the story I wouldn't afford another decade of waiting until the schedule picks up. Worth mentioning that other Kiki fics are also in WN format releasing 100x faster.

You may not use it but you should know that MTLs reached parity with fan translations since 2023, there's not much of a discernible difference if you read a Novelupdates translated chapter and an MTL one other than the lack of an occasional parenthesis explaining Japanese puns. It all comes down to using proper LLMs.

Because the typical "fan translation" is done by an ESL who often barely knows Japanese and makes heavy use of MTL themselves. Almost everything on novelupdates is very obviously MTLed.
