As with any porn ban, this is going to have a disproportionate impact on queer and neurodiverse communities, unnecessarily criminalise people making images of things which are entirely legal in the UK and do precisely nothing to protect women or children Frankly chilling behaviour

I'm so grateful that 7S came out with such a direct response of "NO WE ARE NOT USING AI" I'm choosing to trust the relationship we built over the many years I worked for 7S. Fingers crossed...thank you 7S team!

Great statement. Very happy to hear this! This only happened because YOU spoke up, commented, reached out. YOU, the fans and readers, their paying customers, made it clear that you want high-quality English translation. I’m so thankful for all of you.

I finally watched Cosmic Princess Kaguya and it felt like it was engineered in a lab to destroy me (positive)

おはようございます How was your nap? (It is mid-afternoon, and the addressee has just woken up) #amtranslating

was gonna wait until the book was out or the EN cover reveal (and may say so again at that time) but it's on the website sooo getting to work on gundam again yippee!!!!

Hey!! So it looks like I've got a gap in my schedule coming up, so if you ever wanted to hit up your boy for manga lettering work (or comics, in general!) now is the time 👀

Got my comp copies for volumes 1 and 2 of Me and the Alien Mumu! I love how they turned out. The jacket and inside cover look incredible and they even have the translator/letterer names on the back cover! Super honored to have been entrusted with the translation. Thanks @kodamatales.bsky.social!

さすが well-played. #AmTranslating

たしかに Touche #AmTranslating

ah, i'm so happy to see positive feedback about the loc of karous on steam...! it's kind of rare for reviews to comment on translation quality. i know arcade game fans don't usually focus that much on story/text, but i wanted to do what i could to make it as good as possible

THE TITAN’S BRIDE Vol. 8 (For Mature readers) In this Mature-rated Boys’ Love/#BL fantasy isekai manga that inspired an anime, there’s nothing small about the love between a human and a titan prince! Out today in print/digital! See RETAILERS section: sevenseasentertainment.com/books/the-ti...

my fave spot in RuriDragon ch44 mom's lines are バカなの？ (lit: Are you stupid?) 先に行っとくよ (lit. I'm going ahead without you) Good ex. of how baka usually has to be softened for English (esp. in a casual, slice-of-life setting, between family/friends). Also a sly capital-G God idiom, without the God.

One time I got away with translating オタサー (as in オタサーの姫, the Japanese term for the vaunted girl in a nerdy club) as "sausage fest" for [an unnamed licensed anime tie-in game]. Definitely one of those games where you had to make your own fun and, honestly, still a career highlight like 8 years later.

Cosmic Princess Kaguya is out! This was definitely my favorite project of 2025, and I'm so glad I can finally show it off 🎵💞 (I translated the English subtitles; "English (CC)" is captions for the dub, which I wasn't involved with, but I'm super curious to see how they handled the song lyrics!)

I can make children read again

I've been following this in Japanese, and it's already one of my all-time faves! I'm so excited to see it out in English! And Mei's doing a beautiful job with the character voices; this *is* poetry 💞

Some commentary from Fakku’s YQII. I’m going to refrain from speculation until Fakku comes in with official statement on what happened

Tsumiki ch.82 TL notes! (MY FIRST!) Some SFX are more descriptive. I think one of my favorite fun SFX is translating きっちり (precise, thorough, neat) as LOGISTICS. I don't know, there's just something fun about that word screaming at you in all caps, lol.

Obviously we don’t have the full story, but if the Fakku situation is a paypros one… “petite bodies are too obscene for us to process payments” is fucking insane and should be a five alarm fire for any feminist cultural critic

tapping the sign

All of the companies that make the software I use are increasing their prices, to account for an "investment" in AI. I'm sat here imagining how my clients would feel if I added 30% to each invoice, because I "really got into gambling".

Also very applies here in Europe. Chat Control is coming bundled with mandatory identity checks, and you should be doing everything you can to stop it. fightchatcontrol.eu

"Thagomizer" in Japanese is, in fact, サゴマイザー/sagomaizaa, and you can imagine my delight when it dawned on me what the katakana I was reading represented.

Also, I have an itch page now! If you've enjoyed The Earring, please consider buying the Deluxe Edition, which includes the entire comic, full-res and uncompressed, plus a bunch of extra goodies: aesungaia.itch.io/the-earring-...

So, fun fact: licensors are notoriously protective of their brands, and will take literal months at times to ensure that every single aspect of a title is being presented properly. You can't even SNEEZE without telling the licensor. To have Kadokawa come out and say this directly is amazing

Fakku is one of the only official pathways for hentai mangaka to make money from hentai's massive English-speaking audience. The site's whole appeal is "paying us is paying your favorite hentai artists." What happens if Fakku is limited in what it can post? We go back to the era of 🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️

I was briefly scheduled to letter this book, but I had to leave the project before starting because I had other obligations and knew it would be difficult to fit into my schedule. My friend Chris (@fog.mediocrity.ca) is lettering it, and putting in a herculean effort. He deserves tremendous praise.

This one's me! I have a lot to talk about once the volume drops.
