... you totes can stumble across creepy shit that way, too. Just... less creepy. And less often. And significantly less explicit but ANYWAY moving on

Buh. It's really annoying to be binging on manga and suddenly find a shift in the grammar from "well translated" to "total engrish". Probably differences in scanlations. Really kills the experience.

That's really fun with LNs, actually.

Oddly enough, I've found it's not that bad when it goes from actual translation to edited machine translation -- most of the meaning still gets through, and if you're going from a previously solid base some of the sketchier bits make better sense.

... though sometimes it actually improves the experience, too. The ham begins to flow~

...Ok, there's some charm. Just found this gem:

Quote
"Chihiro managed to reunite with Rea. The two managed to destroy the remaining zombie drug at ZOMA. Grandpa tried to talk sence in Salva but the dude tried to kill him instead."

Duuude, uncool, trying to kill him instead. Dude.

EDIT: Apparently Sankarea isn't done yet and I'm all caught up and the next chapter isn't published yet and it's at the intense climax and I want to read more and I have to wait and noooooooooo

So upcoming Gate - Thus the JSDF Fought There anime adaptation is looking interesting...

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Can't wait to see fantasy monsters & troops get introduced to modern firepower's sweet embrace of gunfire & explosions.

I wonder just how much they'll change, tone down and/or remove.

Been looking forward to that one for a couple of months now. :D

That actually looks and sounds like something I'd be interested in, anyone know where I can read the whole manga in English? If you do PM me, posting links to that technically breaks copyright laws and I'd prefer to keep Toady from any lawsuits.

The untranslated name is "Gate - Jietai Kare no Chi nite, Kaku Tatakeri". Google will provide anything else you might need, really. There's definitely a fair amount of the manga fan-tranz'd, though I couldn't say if all of it has been, yet, as well as a little bit of the novel and LN.

Though, uh, wow. Having read a bit now, I do think folks looking for it should probably be warned it's just a titch graphic. Fairly substantial and graphic violence, and the rape of both of and under aged girls, within the first four chapters. Not exactly light material, or safe for work.

It'd will be interesting to see what gets cut, since what I'm seeing would probably limit it to late night showings or somethin'.

Yeah, having checked out the first couple of chapters it can get a tad gruesome at times.

Also reading this is making me really want to go back and read The Salvation War again. :P

Honestly, it's been a while since I read something that rode mood dissonance so damned hard. It's like the author(s?) wanted to write a fairly standard modern-military-hits-fantasy thing, but had some sort of fanservice director writing in lines every third paragraph or something. And maybe two or three different artists with similar but notably distinct styles. Feels almost frankensteinian, somehow.

It's... I'm reading it? And I think I sorta' like it? Maybe? But it's the sort of like I feel for particularly readable bad fanfiction. B-Movie, so-bad-it's-good kinda' stuff. Along those lines. Inspired but distracted amateur work.

Did just realize the last time I felt like this, though -- reading Re:Monster LN translations. Suddenly humor and cheerful tentacle-inclined harem antics in my previously bloody half-video-game/half-survival fantasy romp. Like a porn quota was bolted onto the story or somethin'.

Which is, like. I'm okay with porn quotas. But it feels weird. Not exactly bad, just... wriggly? Like you'd expect onset worm rot to feel, I guess. Makes the story mooshier than it could (should?) be.

"Hundred thousand people just got brutally mowed down -- let's talk about tits!" Sorta' like that.

E: Sweet hell, I just realized they actually named the 900+ year old serial-killing apostle of what appears to be a god of murder Loli. My face has been palmed.

E2: Aannndd now the Actually 500 Years Old loli is orgasming herself into a berserker frenzy. What the hell have you people brought upon this thread.

E3: Then the fondling of the well-endowed corpse. Really? Really? I mean, on one hand, okay. Demoralization. And it worked. On the other hand, you people just drew that. The other hand is now full of decapitated corpse tit. Alright then.

E4:

Oh, I remember reading this manga somewhere.  I forgot that it existed.

Lots of "Fuck Yea, we got superior technology and are actually educated, you Neanderthals got nothing on us."
