Everyday the Protagonist Wants to Capture Me

Chapter 18 – Every Day the Protagonist is Eager to Eat Fish

Chapter 18 <– click on the link to read it.

Things are really heating up.

Last chapter I said the “fighting fairies” cover was of two women but I was probably wrong.

The “fairies fighting” bit is from chapter 73 of The Red Chamber Dream (one of the four great classical novels of China) when a girl picked up a sachet that had an image of a nude pair embracing. She thought it was an image of “fairies fighting.”

I assumed it was of two women but apparently it was a man and a woman. I apologize for the mistake.

Embroidered sachets

Last time, Chu Yu mentioned that women were trying to give him embroidered sachets. I think these were Qingyang sachets, also known as “chu chu” hahahahaha!

These are basically handmade cloth sachets that are normally filled with perfume items or traditional Chinese medicine ingredients. Stuff like herbs, cinnabar, realgar and other strongly aromatic TCM ingredients are commonly used.

I love this chapter, it’s sooooo good! I was squee-ing all the way from start to finish because I am just a hopeless fujoshi sometimes. Thanks for reading.

The Prince Will Never Give Up on Me!

prince will never give up on me
I love this cute manga “Ouji ga Watashi o Akiramenai!” (The Prince Will Never Give Up on Me!). It’s pure comedy and I laugh every time I read it because of its sheer ridiculousness.

Summary: A super high-spec “prince” with great talent, extraordinary intelligence, enormous wealth, gorgeous good looks, etc. falls in love with a commoner.

It’s very over-the-top. Edit: Link is dead for some reason so just google the title “Ouji ga Watashi o Akiramenai” or read it at your favorite manga website.

Xie Xi: When I grow up I can…?

What exactly was Xie Xi thinking of doing when he grows up?

From the manhua Yi Chui Wu Yue Tiao Man Ji . The scanlators seems to have deleted their website so you can use whichever manga website you like. Batoto link.

Last chapter was hilarious. Spoiler for last chapter:

Rofl, I nearly died laughing when they ran away after they discovered the incense by the demonic cultivators. I was not expecting that. I thought they would try to find the demonic cultivator and rescue the villagers but they immediately flew off to report it to the sect.

I mean, it was the smart thing to do, but how many of main characters of the usual Xianxia CN novels would do that? I have never read of any!

That was very strange, I mean so the whole auction thing was useless since they won’t be finishing the water demon extermination mission? They handed over the mission to the sect master because the demonic cultivators were involved. I guess we will see what will happen in the future chapters.

Thank you for reading.

Sorry for the delay, I had the flu

I still have a lingering cough but I’m mostly alright except for that. It sucks. Anyway, we should be back to the regular weekly updates.

Lately I have been browsing pixiv. There soooo many great illustrations and they are mostly by amateurs.

Of course, professional artists also showcase their work there but I am amazed that so many people can draw so well. Very nice!

By the way, there is a discussion thread for the latest chapter (no spoilers) here. Click here to read it.

Japanese terms in Chinese novels

The Japanese terms that I use in the translation are there in the raw.

For example:

  • lolita
  • shota
  • brocon
  • otaku
  • Moe

Those terms are widely used by Chinese people. In particular, “Moe” is “Meng” in Chinese novels. I prefer to use either “Moe” or “cute” instead of “Meng.”

Thank you for reading and leaving comments.

Last week I was overambitious and released two chapters. That went okay but this week I was late by one day. I normally post on Tuesday.

Anyway, my TL’er didn’t have time to check this because I was late so if you find any errors, please let me know.

Uh, this is an unscheduled post. I finished it early so I decided to post it. Normally, I post on Tuesdays but that isn’t set in stone. I post whenever I finish a chapter. My goal is at least 1 chapter week.

Thank you for reading this.

Chu Yu’s scalp tingled

What could it be? Just read the chapter to find out! The author really loves ending the chapters very abruptly, doesn’t he?

I think it would be hilarious if people saw Chu Yu and Xie Xi on the flying sword. Like this image:
