Victor calls Fuuko 狸顔 (tanukigao) which likens someones face to a tanuki/raccoon dog (round eyes and face, huge pupils, etc) There's also キツネ顔 (kitsunegao/fox face) which refers to sharper eyes, smaller mouth etc. The insult nuance carries over in EN so in it stayed. (2/2)
Kaiju No. 8 Ch 22 This cake is topped with SD characters by @kusanosaproo who together with @OoSa6 make up OsaPro, artists behind wonderful background/mech elements in Kaiju 8! @brandonbovia did a fantastic job redrawing the cake and the result speaks for itself. #怪獣8号
怪獣8号22話、@kusanosaprooのSDキャラが乗ってるケーキの文字、"退院祝"は英語で"Congratulations on being released from the hospital"だけど余計に長くスペースを取ってしまうので伊春とレノの名前の位置も考えながら"Welcome back"と簡略化するチョイスをしました。綺麗に入れましたね!#怪獣8号
Also, Japanese wagyu tends to go by yield ratings of A to C and quality ratings ranging from 1 to 5. Essentially, the higher of both yield and quality, the better the marbling of the beef and tenderness. A6 is, as the story shows, an impossible grade of beef, lol.
Undead Unluck Ch 46. I really wanted "soul" to be in the last bubble like in the original, so I toiled to rewrite the sentences so that they had a natural flow leading up to it. As I wrote and read it aloud, I think it hit the right gravitas, so I hope it did for the readers too.
アンデラ46話、『魂(soul)』は英語版でも最後にあったらグッと来るだろうというイメージで、それを目標に長い日本語の文を二つにわけて、分けても違和感なく読み取れるようにしたり、前後の文の統一感重視で自然な流れを作ったりとか色んな事を考えながらの翻訳でした。まぁ結果オーライって感じかなw
Undead Unluck Ch. 47 You might've noticed the magazine was in English. For Undead, the rule is that there are minimal redraws bc of the whole language unification aspect, but this week's flashback had a few spots where it was unavoidable. Hopefully it didn't break immersion 🙇♂️
アンデラ47話、今週は言語統一前の回想話なのでまだ統一されていない言葉(日本語)も久しぶりに登場しているけれどこんな大量の日本語をそのままにしてはいけないし日本語の上に載せてはごちゃごちゃすぎて何も読めないという理由で、今回だけは描き直して貰いました。皆様、大目に見てください🙇♂️#wj07
I almost forgot that yesterday (19th) was the debut of Undead Unluck in WSJ, which was my debut as a TL in the SJ lineup. Being in Jump has been a childhood dream of mine and it's so immensely humbling and heartwarming to be in it in some capacity. Still surreal. Thank you all.
