This is called schedule slippage!

I have been releasing one chapter every week but I mentioned before that the chapters are longer now. This might cause a bit of a delay sometimes but don’t be alarmed. Everything is fine and I am working at the same speed as always. It’s just that the chapters are longer… but I am still releasing the same word length per month as before.

Hopefully, I can adjust and continue to release weekly!

My Phoenix’s On Top

I’ve been reading this weirdly titled manhua, My Phoenix’s On Top. Special advisory: There is no phoenix seme (on top) in the manga. It’s not BL. Imagine my disappointment!

It’s usual isekai type: Unlucky girl from the modern time goes to another world, unexpectedly receives an incredible power, and capturing the crown princes from four countries’ heart, all the way to become the imperial harem’s lord?

Only seven chapters have been translated but it seems promising.

Mosspaca Advertising Department

Wow, like wow!

Image from chapter 41 of Mosspaca Advertising Department. My eyes feel blessed! His friend is the cute type who also appears in the same chapter.

I was going to link chapter 42 since today’s chapter of Every Day the Protagonist Wants to Capture Me is the 42nd but this chapter had the hotter image.

I think this chapter is actually an advertisement for Sony products, lol. Look at the headphones and the phone. 🙂 I wouldn’t mind editorial ads if they are this beautiful. The artists obviously worked on it a lot!

This is the link for the real chapter.

I was two days late with the chapter

Hi guys, sorry for being two days late with the chapter. I actually have a “soft deadline” for chapters since it would be too much like a job (instead of a hobby) if I had to adhere to a strict deadline.

Please excuse the little images I put in the text. It’s just there to avoid people copying my stuff without crediting it. Today’s image is from Xuan Ji Ci.

Xuan Ji Ci is a manhua about a main character who likes to look at hot guys. Who doesn’t like to look at hot guys??After embarrassing herself in front of two hot guys in the school yard, she decided to play a prank on them. Unexpectedly, during the crucial moment, an accident happened, and she transmigrated into the world of a game.

P.S. The hot guy she was with turned into a hot girl. *laughs*

It’s pure comedy so don’t take it too seriously.

Thanks for reading!

My Disciple Died Yet Again is Finished

This is one of the very few completed cultivation/Xianxia novels with a female main character. I love it!

It’s a comedy about a woman from modern day China who transmigrated into a Xianxia realm. Since she has the rare “lightning spirit root” she gets chosen by the world’s most powerful cultivator to be his personal succeeding disciple. In other words, the one who will inherit all of his techniques and treasures.

Zhu Yao is an awesome main character! Her long-suffering master, Yu Yan is also great. The minor characters are also very memorable.

The image above is by everyone’s favorite Ibuki Satsuki – http://tw.weibo.com/ibukisatsuki. I feel like this artist has the perfect illustrations for Xianxia.

Wo Zai Hougong Dang Ju Ju

The art is awesome (see image below) but the story and characters are just average.

Princess in the Prince’s Harem by Luna Lotus Scans – a noble girl was called ugly by the Emperor. Enraged, she disguised herself as a man and entered the Imperial Painting Competition where she drew a funny/ugly caricature of the Emperor. Her talent for trolling people caught the eye of a prince and she was forced to enter the palace as a (male) painter. (This summary is mine.)

Thanks for reading.

Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation animation is awesome!

Have you watched the new Mo Dao Zu Shi animation from Tencent? The English subtitles are out for the first four chapters. The animation is very nice and the story is great.

It’s also known as Modao Zushi, The Founder of Diabolism, The Founder of Evil Magic, and 魔道祖师.

Check out how gorgeous the art and character designs are! ~swoons ~ Here is a funny ad for Cornetto by the Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation characters.

In case you are not familiar with this story, the person in the white robes is the seme while the naughty, fun-loving person in black is the uke. 😉 The story is by the same author as The Scum Villain’s Self-Saving System.

Xie Xi, hang in there!

LOL, where is poor Xie Xi in all of this? His family’s story hasn’t even been revealed but Chu Yu’s family drama is getting a lot of screen time.

Could it be that Xie Xi has been demoted to a minor character while Chu Yu and Chu Sheng are the new lead characters?!

Plus Alpha no Tachiichi

In case you want some manga to read, here is a completely translated 13-chapter work:  +α no Tachi Ichi. Weird name, lol. It’s about a girl who was transported to another world manga… as a side character.

Summary:

Satoki Houma is an imaginative girl who enjoys shoujo manga. However, in the perfect shoujo manga twist, one day she gets dragged to an alternate world where the people have summoned a Holy Maiden to save them! Except so did her classmate, Haruka Toudou, who fits the exact model of a Shoujo Protagonist.

In short, she stays in the sidelines observing the action as the heroine (her classmate) is hailed as the Holy Maiden. I must say that the ending was a little unsatisfying at first but on my second read, I found that it was pretty okay.

You can read the manga here.

Change in release schedule next month

Hi guys! The chapters are now longer and it’s becoming harder for me to release them every week. I’m thinking of releasing half chapters instead of full chapters. You will still get the same number of characters translated per month so it’s not like I’m slowing down the releases.

I mean, I have been releasing the chapters which were around 3,000 characters per chapter. With a release schedule one of chapter per week, the total character count for each month right now is 12,000 characters.

However, the chapters are now 4,000 characters each. Therefore, since I translate 12,000 characters per month of this project, I can only release 3 chapters per month (not 4).

The options are:

• release one chapter every ten days
• release half chapters per five days

Since I do want more exposure on NU, I will probably go for the half chapter every five days release schedule next month but I’m not sure yet. I’ll try to challenge myself to continue with one chapter every week even though it’s longer now.

This totally reminds me of Xie Xi wanting to eat fish.

So was the last chapter good for you?

I do have one thing to say though: die crab! 

I will eat you!

Image: Black pepper crab (Singaporean dish) with  Tiger beer. It’s pretty great and not too expensive most of the time. Have you eaten this? What’s your favorite crab dish?
