snack eater posted:in Japan, NEETs are called hikikomori Nah, Japan definitely uses NEET, and hikikomori are literal shut-ins. As in, never come out of their room. NEET is just someone without a job or not in school; you don't necessarily have to be both, but most hikikomori are NEETs if only because there are very few who make a living never going outside of their rooms. And there are definitely NEETs who go outside all the time.

A life of Crime will shape this loser up. Or not, who cares, it'll be hilarious to see him in jail. He's probably gonna just steal money from his relatives or something, I'm guessing.

Chomp8645 posted:I'm hoping Partner In Crime Girl witnessed the guy inexplicably handing the cash back to NEET and it now going to comment. Or she says something to the hardened criminal and he tells her the horrifying truth about the MURDERER they stole from...and the fear is somehow attractive to her. Maybe she becomes our neet's first girlfriend?

Mr. Steak posted:that's how i interpret it, lmao. grammatically the line could also be correctly translated as "he won't have a good death" as in, he'll die as a loser. but i'm sure the implication is supposed to be that the company is unbelievably shady. so lol Oh, okay, so our NEET avoided a shady situation that would have misinterpreted his past in the worst way.

bob human being posted:xenophobia has nothing to do with "cultural sensitivity" and even if not talking to this dude is ultimately the right thing to do, assuming hes gonna throw a tantrum isnt a good way to respect any artist.

Mr. Steak posted:tbh i have no clue why a goku silhouette was included there, but it might have something to do with the fact that the japanese understanding of "neet" doesnt perfectly match the word's english etymology. on the site i mentioned once or twice w articles about neets, the concept of "training" wasnt even mentioned in the definition Goku is also a fighting "otaku" who hates working or otherwise making money, and he's barely functional as an adult member of society, so that's my understanding of why he was shown there. And a bit more literally, the training in NEET isn't physical training but job training, so...

I like how this fan translation project turned out like nearly every other manga fan translation project: delays, squabbling, multiple release groups, and general chaos. Now the only thing left is for the original author to somehow find out about it and kill the project entirely. It was a wild ride; once the thread dies, can a goon who reads Japanese just spoil everything? Obviously only if the thread dies, but that will probably take awhile with all this drama.

Those little blocks of mochi are pretty much lumps of plastic until you heat them up. But then they get toasty and gooey and chewy when you do. Toasted mochi with soy and seaweed is a fantastic savory snack. Edit: lumps of very hard plastic, that is
