Ketchup Ninja 16

Surprise, surprise, it's another chapter of Ketchup Ninja. This chapter doesn't have much dialog as it's mostly the continuation of Shinoko & Debbie's fight vs. the new ninja girls. I must say, this manga contains a lot more action than you'd guess from the first chapter, but I personally don't mind as the fights are kept dynamic and fun. Well, have fun reading it.

Here's an overview of all episodes on niconico:

Note that starting with episode 4, the videos aren't free of charge anymore. I can still get you the sound files and times though, if someone wants to make flash videos out of them.

    Ha, the mystery ninja is one of those people who can't deal with liking something so they put on a twisted pretense of hating it until they don't even know what their own feelings are.

    And again the twins' grudge is again awash in ignorance; the Japanese did assimilate Valentine's Day from America, but the idea of girls giving chocolate (and definitely, specifically chocolate) to guys on the day was a Japanese invention.

    Don't forget the patented Fist of North Star "Flurry of Punches"...

    Also the Ninja Twins' Start of Darkness is freaking laaaaaaame. -_-
    ...but then again really really stupid villain motivations are kind of traditional in anime/manga, which is presumably the whole point here.

    ... This series just doesn't reflect American life accurately at all. Seriously, where did the mangaka get his info?
    Thanks for the chapter. lol

      You're welcome. I'm curious though, what exactly about manga called "Ketchup Ninja" made you think that it'd try to accurately reflect American life? It's an over-the-top ninja comic that happens to be set in America.

      I think, he got his info from a high school in New Jersey he attended himself, but it doesn't mean he didn't exaggerate or alter his experiences.

    I was just wondering, do you read along as you translate, or have you already read the entire series, and then decided to translate?

      I read the first few chapters to get a first impression, then skim through the rest to see what it's like and read along as I translate. If there's something I don't understand or something is only hinted, I read ahead to find out what it is. I know, a good translator would read all of it first to not get any inconsistency problems later on, but it's a lot more fun for me this way.

How I stalked some dude with an exposed nipple and stumbled upon the Zenithian Sword

Hey guys, great title for a manga, eh? This one is a Dragon Quest V doujinshi that was originally posted on Pixiv by Nikiichi Tobita (MONSTER X MONSTER), when he was still an amateur artist. In fact, you'll notice a few similarities to MONSTER X MONSTER. You could say, this manga = MONSTER X MONSTER - DQ V. It's a more or less free adaptation of the "How I stalked some dude with an exposed nipple and stumbled upon the Zenithian Swordwwww" thread that was started on 2ch by an anonymous poster with the ID YDmPhSO2. So yeah, he's the author, I suppose. If the title is too long for you, the Japanese also refer to it as Bonfire NEET (焚き火ニート). Note: You should really play Dragon Quest V before you read this one (doesn't matter if it's the original SNES, or one of its remakes on DS and PS2). It's a great game, so you should have played it anyway. Also, the author made a few minor changes to the DQ V story to make the main protagonist fit in. Enjoy! Volu

Molester Man Original Threads

This is probably my first post that's not about a new manga chapter I translated. Sorry for getting your hopes up. I just wanted to announce that I started working on the original Molester Man 2ch threads. You can see the translated bits when you click on the "Molester Man 2ch threads" button on the top of my blog. As I hinted at in my last post, I'll be translating it post by post. What I meant is that I'll have the online page with my translations synchronized with the files on my computer. It's supposed to feel like an actual thread. New posts come in one by one as I'm translating it. That way, I don't have to wait until I've translated a whole thread or a whole batch of posts which makes things a lot more comfortable for me. Even if I'm extremely busy, I'll still find the time to translate a post or two. So check in every once in a while and see if there are any new posts in the threads. Have fun! The threads had to be moved to Fire

Molester Man 21

Image
If you were in the thread in /a/, you probably know already, but chapter 21 is done. I saw comments about how I chose the wrong time for chapter 21, but to my defense, I wasn't finished with the chapter until 19:30 CST. That's why I'm very glad that I chose that time zone. Anyways, enjoy the final chapter of Molester Man. The last extra chapter will follow in the near future. I have to catch up on a lot of things I had put on hold until MM was finished. I hope you understand. Happy New Year!
