Just so we're clear there are two chapters there, 5.1 and 5.5. They'll be up on batoto whenever their mod approves them.

Lemon-Lime posted:Do they make the Prosit/Prost mistake in the original Japanese? Because if not, the toast is Prost, even though it is derived from the latin Prosit (thanks, Wikipedia). Yeah, Japan seems to always spell it Prosit (that's how it's spelled in the dictionaries I see: http://ejje.weblio.jp/content/prosit, http://eow.alc.co.jp/search?q=prosit, http://dic.nicovideo.jp/a/%E3%83%97%E3%83%AD%E3%83%BC%E3%82%B8%E3%83%83%E3%83%88, https://kotobank.jp/word/%E3%83%97%E3%83%AD%E3%83%BC%E3%82%B8%E3%83%83%E3%83%88-622467), but I guess if that's wrong it's wrong! Maybe I'll leave it that way in the dialogue and make a note about it?

Lemon-Lime posted:Maybe a result of the fact that you can't have two consonants one after the other in Japanese? I'd make it Prost and put a note in the TNs about Prosit/Prost and how Japan spells it. Further research seems to show that Prost is recognized and has different katakana than Prosit (プロースト & プロージット), but everyone seems to think both are equally correct...and end up using Prosit just because (maybe because LotGH used it, and that seems to have kick-started the trend of saying it in Japan). It's not too uncommon for Japan to have mistaken/out-of-date knowledge on foreign words like that.

Epoxy Bulletin posted:I got access to fast-track my own uploads on batoto w/o mod approval by asking in the contributors subforum. Now I can hide the bad one and re-up whenever I gently caress up, too. I just had to say what group I was and the series I work and they let me have it no problem. I actually did that (re: batoto) several months ago, but apparently they haven't approved any new requests lately. I think the person who does the approving just hasn't been doing it. And I think you're right on the other two, which is a shame because they only keep the first group's release of a chapter (so people who read there have to suffer through the old translations of the early Otaku chapters).

Serious Frolicking posted:Uh, I like the male lead but everything else is terrible. It picks up as it goes along and the rest of the cast is introduced (imo anyway), but to be honest it was so supremely painful to work on for a whole laundry list of reasons that that is probably the only chapter I'll do. Meanwhile, Micchan has an important announcement to make.

Lemon-Lime posted:Also, Banish to the Underworld being a Sorcery earlier on is probably the mistake that got corrected, since the card text indicates that it has an ongoing effect while it remains in play (and sorceries don't remain in play). The actual text of the card changed too, in chapter three all it did was remove the graveyard from the game:

I think I got the imgur album image order thing worked out so try this out. I like having it only on imgur first because as soon as it goes up on batoto it's instantly all over the internet, making fixing typos/errors basically impossible.

Thanks for the suggestions/comments/pointers! I'll mess around with it a bit and put it up on the 'tote. Patware posted:Re: the notes at the end, is there a purpose to the tokkuri aside from ritual? I always get thrown off when you pour from one bottle into another bottle and /then/ serve, maybe I'm just uncultured Some of it is just a quirk of history. Originally, sake wasn't bottled like it is today, but was instead poured out into a tokkuri owned by the store that you'd take home and then return later. Nowadays it's mostly a tradition thing or something done at a restaurant that lets them sell you a substantial amount of sake without you having to buy the whole bottle (it's common to get one or two tokkuri for a group as a single round of drinks at a party, in between beers/cocktails/etc). Especially considering the small size of the cups, it's convenient to have a mid-sized container to pour from rather than leave a whole bottle out all night--sake can go bad relatively quickly after opening when not refrigerated. Still though, people do pour straight from the bottle sometimes, most often when you're at home and when you expect to drink the whole bottle. Most sake is filtered such that sediment isn't really an issue (though nigori sake, at least, leaves a lot in and requires you shake the bottle before pouring).

The kumomori people said they thought it would be good if I kept doing the otaku manga so I guess I will. This chapter is v short, be warned. Unless you include my wall of text in the notes, then it's pretty long I guess.

Xelkelvos posted:Those beef tariffs are vicious. Holy crap. The rice tariff is over 700% (only after a set annual minimum that gets in tariff free per GATT, though; it's about 10% of total annual consumption, though it's largely donated as foreign aid or used as livestock feed rather than actually sold to consumers). It's mostly to protect the domestic rice industry of course, which is almost entirely made up of small-scale family owned farms run by old people, and maintain their self-sufficiency in a staple food.
