「液体(それ)なら確かに我は切れぬ。相手をしても切りが無い」"Sore nara tashikani ware wa kirenu. Aite o shitemo kiri ga nai" "kiri ga nai" means "no end"/"endless." "kiri" also means "cut." Therefore: https://t.co/5exgXRWV3g

Undead 104: I chortled really hard at this part and chortled again when I read the proofs in English.

My proudest moment is giving Ryo's little aside joke here a tad more context while retaining the source. "顔が「ひでぶ」になったァ"/kao ga hidebu ni natta-a = "my face has gone 'hidebu'!" [death cry of Mr. Heart/other random grunts in Hokuto no Ken/Fist of the North Star.]

undead unluck is awesome lol

you have no idea how good of a decision it was to let me work on a series like city hunter.

Undead Unluck 108: Rip's last name "Tristan" could be a reference to the legend of Tristan and Isolde, where a knight is involved with two princesses both named Isolde. This would also explain why he's after the Roundtable (see: knight) and the Mirah sisters' names.

Fun fact: most E-J dictionaries will give the "right" def of 日和る (hiyoru) which is "to wait and see"/"noncommittal" (comes from "wait & see for clear weather.") However, nowadays this word means "scared" or "chickenhearted." Same word from this famous line in Tokyo Revengers.

Undead Unluck 111: Looks like this theory was right on the money. The original was イズー病院 (Izuu Byouin.) イズー is one of the many ways to spell Isolde/Iseult/Isolt/Yseult. https://t.co/tolRh9j1OO

Super Smartphone 9: I almost forgot, but I had to make the "T" here make sense. He gives Moura the name "T" bc of 手下 (teshita/lackey) but since I didn't want to change "T" to "L" for obvious notebook manga-related reasons among others, I went with "toady" bc synonyms are fun.

this happens all the time in undead. i do like how michelle layered andy's text here to be under fuuko's bubble to replicate the effect of her dialogue butting in. this practically -never- happens often, but it's great when it works out. https://t.co/o0SjoYBpEh

negotiation process when i'm offered new work:

I don't think I mentioned this. In Super Smartphone, Moura's Googugu screen is in pictographs and onomatopoeia on part of him being slow-witted. A closed fist "gu" + elongation squiggle ~ = "guu" ぐ "gu" ＋ Gu (グッ) the SFX for a thumbs up/グッドサイン (good sign.)
