View Comments

• Thank u always for ur great work...
  ^^...

  • Let's prepare for the ride...
    :3...

    • You commented first.

  • Did you read this first, or comment first ?

    • he's multitasking , do you forgot he's a bot ?

  • I see autobot still running rampant

• Interesting

• Thanks for the update, Reigo-senpai.

  I'm still a little sore on how you feel about Janitor-san, though I was hoping the person translating "How not to summon a Demon Lord" would've stayed active on it when they picked it up for a couple chapter. As for your choice... I'll give it a shot. The only project you've translated that let us down was QualiA, though that easily became garbage around the time you stopped anyway.

  • Don't forget World Reformation.

    • I liked World Reformation

      • World Reformation was fun pretty much all the way through.

• so.... is it tagged with a 15+ rate ? or its simply have a lots of sex jokes

  • It is tagged 15+

• Isekai Tensei Soudoki for my choose, Senpai~~

• Any news on tsuki release?

• Woo~ Off to our next journey we go.
  May the memes sprout and Common Sense-chan stand strong.

  No idea how much I'll like this new series since the cons mentioned are why I typically dislike ecchi stories. Still, Reigokai's proven to have good taste so far, so I'm down to try. If I can skim through How not to Summon a Demon Lord's scenes to enjoy the story, I should be able to do just fine here.

  • you dislike ecchi..... but you're also our brethren in pervertness..... you betrayed us....

    • I don't recall ever declaring myself your brethren in perversion. I am what I am, and if our interests happen to align at a few points, that's just how it is.

      I dislike ecchi because it usually goes in circles wasting time on fanservice that has zero lasting consequences and grinds the rest of the story to a halt. Not all ecchi stories do this, but the fact stands that if I complained about it during any ecchi story, the obvious response would be "well what did you expect in this sort of story?"

      • lies ! deception ! >:(

  • MC of that one was called on that shit, with him getting caught with his pants down with another woman, but I see your point that he never initiates or follows through on the ecchi stuff.

• Thanks again, regiokai! Pity about Sayonara Ryuusei. It does seem like a very good NATIVE TENSEI.

• I always wonder why you ask for suggestions about new novels to translate when you always pick one completely different from the suggested ones.

  • He had already said that he had decided on a series to translate in the post in which he asked for suggestions. It's likely for if he liked one of the recommendations even more or just for the next series he'll translate.

    • And that happens every time, if Reigokai were to be fair to his readers he would note down the best suggestions of each poll and yake them in consideration for the next novel but this never happened. With each poll all past suggestions become tabula rasa.

      • What? How do you figure that? Just because everyone is throwing out the same suggestions as before doesn't mean Reigokai was any less aware of them before that.

        To me, it's pretty obvious to pull from previous suggestions for new candidates, but it's not like there's an obligation to do any of them. They weren't chosen the first time around for various reasons, so if a better candidate appears, the same is going to happen the second time around.

    • There is a moral obbligation, if he actually finds that readers suggestions are bad (since he never picks them up) then instead of ask for suggestions then he should just say honestly that he will pick the next novel on his own.

      Not like it matters at this ppint though, he can pull this kind of gimmick only a limited number of times before users catch up.

      • What moral obligation? There is no moral obligation here. No commitment was made, no tangible harm was done, and no lies were told. We were asked for suggestions, so we gave him a collective list of suggestions. That's all. The concept of "fair to readers" shouldn't even come up because it's not relevant.

        You call this a gimmick as if we're being scammed. It is just a conversation via announcement and feedback.

        If you were under the impression that Reigokai was obligated to translate anything suggested for any reason besides "I personally like this and there won't be long-term issues if I translate it", then that's a problem with your misunderstanding.

    • Do you even understand what I mean for moral obbligation? Please don't distort my words just because you can't accept that others have different opinions. Only my wife can do that XD

      • Wut? Now you're absolutely not making sense. We're distording your words? Rather, it's either that we get exactly what you mean by moral obligation or you're the one who doesn't understand that "moral obligation" means.

      • You may have misinterpreted my words. I apologize if I wasn't clear.
        Let me give my opinion in regards to this.

        When I am translating, I normally read other raw novels to see if there's a nice one I could also bring to the table for readers to enjoy together with me.

        I did ask for suggestions, but it is ultimately that, suggestions. I am but one person, and there are a vast amount of stories I have no knowledge of. Thus, I read them and treat them the same as the above raw novels I read. A prospect for a new project.

        In the end, I translate because I enjoy translating, reading comments, and having others enjoy the story with me. I am a human.
        If I were to begin translating because of a moral obligation -or any obligation at all- I will be sure that I am doing something wrong.
        This is not a job, this is a passion.

    • Quote from my quote above:
      "if he actually finds that readers suggestions are bad (since he never picks them up) then instead of ask for suggestions then he should just say honestly that he will pick the next novel on his own."
      Is like no one is actually reading, the point is not about translate novels but the actual validity polls. You can promise to bring your family to Europe only a few number of times. Either you bring them or not is totally up to you but if you did not plan on bring them over from the start why make such promise? Because believe me you will never heard the end of this 'moral responsability' .

      • I did read your comment, and I'm not missing the point. You're just entitled. There never was any promise involved though.
        Also, read Reigokai's comment, it proves you wrong.

    • Just don't suggest any novel

      • Not suggesting any novel? I'd only do that if I didn't have any idea, but if I do have a recommendation, then why wouldn't I give it? Even if not picked up, at least Reigokai will have enjoyed one more novel.
        Me and one other person suggested Vermillion, a very good novel, just that it sadly is apparently on a hiatus with 78 chapters only so it wasn't picked up. Still, it was said in the post that he liked it and that the reason he wouldn't go for it over Dragon Knight is the hiatus(which is understandable since he already has one series on hiatus(Tsuki ga Michi Biku) and that he seems to prefer to translate a series up to completion, though there are exceptions like for Maou-sama, Retry).
        While that is a shame, I do hope that he'll put it among his choices for the next series, but for now I'm happy that he liked it and I recommend it to everyone here.

        I'm someone who likes to share with others the stories I like.
        And do consider that this is a passion project for Reigokai, so he's obviously only going to translate the series he's personally interested in. Him asking for suggestions is so to find series he might have overlooked or not known about, series that might end up interesting him enough to translate at some point(regardless of it being in the place of the one he already had in mind or not).

        On the other hand, if you're looking for translators for a specific series and that is the reason you are frustrated with not finding any, then try in more places(like NovelUpdates forum, for example), and most importantly, be patient. Do be aware that restless harassment and inquiries of people to get them to translate a specific series will in most cases only have a negative effect. The reason for that is simply, you will not onyl become a source of stress, but you would also showcase to them the prime example of bad followers, those who always only keep on asking for faster releases and who don't treat the translators with respect. That's a turn-off, so do please ask politely and don't hold it against them if they aren't interested in using up their own time to translate a series that they might not be interested in.

      • My bad, I misunderstood your comment. You likely weren't replying to me, but rather just following the comment chain(even if the notification was as a reply to my comment, but that comment of mine was at the top of the chain and was thus the only one you could've clicked Reply on). Due to it being that way, I normally click Reply in my email(where I receive the notifications) since from there I can directly reply to specific comments.

        As a result, my comment should instead be thought of being for Red n Blue.

      • If you want to reply to a comment that's nested too far into a chain, you can get to the comments section through WordPress. Like through this link:

    • Fair enough, I should stop believing in promises to a never happening Europe travel. Thanks I guess.

      • Again with "believing promises". No promise was made anywhere except in your head.

        In your metaphor, someone asks his kids for ideas on where they want to visit for their vacation. They throw out locations like Hawaii, or Paris. And when the family goes to, say, Florida, the kids are throwing a fit because in their minds, they were told they'd get to go to Hawaii or Paris.

        I have no idea what you're talking about or mean with validity polls.

• I'm glad you liked the Vermillion web novel, but I'm saddened that you won't be translating it since no one currently is and I absolutely love this novel. I need more of it in English. Google translate is far from good enough.
