Bwwuuuh we made it to the end of Wide-Ban 5! Yeah! Last chapter I translated was 151, so there’s 96 left to translate. I’m translating Wide-Ban 9 now. I figured I would take some extra time cleaning/typesetting this week to get Wide-ban 5 done.
But generally speaking I don’t have time to both translate and also clean and letter/typeset, and if we had more help with that, these would get done way faster. Right now I’m doing all the jobs myself which, I’d really rather not have to spend that much time on a weekly basis on this one project. As of now I’m basically gonna focus on translating in hopes I can get to the end of the series by the end of the year. So if folks out there want to volunteer to help clean or letter this, I’d appreciate it. You can email me at kewl0210@gmail.com and I can show you the guides and stuff we have.

Here’s this! More goodness! This chapter was less of a headache to translate but this series is still quite hard despite not having tons of words.
This chapter is about feeling like a “supporting player” in life and the causes and implications of that! So that’s a thing! Check it out!
Uh, it looks like there’s no chapter next month as it’s not in the preview of next chapter page. Unless that’s a mistake. So probably the next chapter is in August.
Also Mangadex is back up but currently (now both a front end and back end) they haven’t enabled uploading, using the API or otherwise, so I still can’t upload there. But whenever they DO enable that I’ve got like 40-something chapters we’ve done or edits we’ve made I need to put on there.

Here’s 90! The last translation I finished was for chapter 147 so the amount left to translate is… 100. Again, I’m just doing this project on my own right now which is REALLY hard, and would really appreciate help if anyone can help clean/typeset. You can email me at kewl0210@gmail.com. We do have guides and stuff.
Anyhow, we’re almost at the end of Wide-Ban 5! I’m gonna keep translating the best I can…

Here it is! 26. This volume came out not too long ago so I’m glad we were able to get it done pretty quick this time. We’re working on the handful of old volumes still, and hopefully we get the next one out in not too long. Again, they need to be completely re-lettered which our letterers can only do in their free time.
I feel like I should mention here that I updated a few lines regarding the “invisible spin bubbles” from these chapters because now we know what they actually are (I updated them a bit ago and reuploaded the magazine versions but these have those changes, too). The issue was when they were first introduced we didn’t have any context, so it wasn’t clear if “その中に” meant “inside” or “among”, a lot of lines were said in a way where it was hard to tell if they were clarifying something or introducing a new idea… it’s all kind of hard to explain if you don’t know Japanese. It wasn’t fully clear until like chapter 105 when we got the full explanation.
But basically the end result is there’s just two “types” of bubbles. There’s the original ones at Jousuke’s fingertips which he can fire and the invisible ones that defy logic, are “just spin”, and appear from the mark on his shoulder that he can’t control. There’s nothing inside them, Mamezuku Rai was saying that the special invisible bubbles are “among” the other bubbles. They’re both made of spinning lines, but for the second type of bubbles they are “just spin” and have no physical “cords” that are spinning (Which the originals have). Anyhow those bubbles gave me a real headache and sorry about the confusion.
Anyyyhow check this out in the much-higher-resolution glory.

Here’s 89! The last translation I finished was for chapter 138 so there’s 109 left to translate. At the moment I’m just working on this by myself because Joeabandonedmine’s been MIA for a bit. Which has been pretty difficult because I still have over 100 chapters to translate and it’s going to make the whole project take a lot longer because, well, there’s only so many hours in the day I can devote to working on this. So if folks out there want to volunteer to help clear or letter this, I’d appreciate it. It would definitely make it go faster at this point (There’s about 50 translated chapters that don’t have the other tasks done right now) you can email me at kewl0210@gmail.com. We do have guides and stuff.
Anyhow, enjoy the chapter everybody. This is a pretty good one with a lot of heart.

Here’s chapter 182! That’s a thing here.
I don’t really know what the deal is with the title of this. In Japanese it’s 道~みち~ (1). Which just means path/road twice, once in kanji and once in hiragana. So I just called it Path ~Path~. I dunno what else to call it. Uh, so if that ever gets cleared up I guess we can change it?
Also RIP Miura Kentarou. He and Umino-sensei were friends and based on what she’s said on twitter it’s been really hard on her. And I’m pretty sad about it, too.

Here’s 88! The last translation I finished was for chapter 136 so there’s 111 left to translate. I typeset this one too, which I guess I’ll keep doing until Joeabandonedmine gets back. But like I said before, it does cut into time I would otherwise be using to translate. And there’s still a lot of that to do.

Here’s 87! The last translation I finished was for chapter 134 so there’s 113 left to translate. I’m gonna try to help out with typesetting as Joeabandonedmine has been busy. But like translating 113 more chapters while ALSO cleaning and typesetting is really time consuming so I’ll do the best I can but I’m focusing mostly on translating for now cause I’d like to at least finish that part in the near future.
