I put this here because I want to share a link to a Daiya no Ace story I wrote about Miyuki Kazuya. https://archiveofourown.org/works/20826425/chapters/49508135#workskin
I translated, cleaned, and typeset JnB's last few chapters and posted them on mangago in January of 2020
I adore this manga beyond all reason. After I hung through the first chapter, this thing grabbed me by the throat and dragged me in. I love it. I obsessed over it for days. I savored the memories of favorite scenes. Dick and Yuto - ack, such names - must be the most beautiful couple in all of yaoidom. The artist drew beautiful characters in a prison world of dense, high quality detail. Such skill. My list of links to Deadlock stuff: http://www.mangago.me/home/mangalist/188667/
In feb/march of 2020, I translated the last chapters, starting with 17 through to the end of the first arc ch25 in a google document. Someone came along and helped themselves to my translation, posted it on mangago, and took full credit without a mention of me. As I said at the time, I can't say I'm not angry about it, but I'm glad that some pages I was missing were added. After that another group jumped on it, and posted this gorgeous omegaverse manga with their watermark stampe
cleaned and decensored this, which might not sound like much, but it was among the most difficult of projects. Matching huge pieces of halftones on complicated panels, and decensoring it. Then the translator sent it back saying my decensoring might be too explicit for her raw provider to accept and asked me to redo it. I did, and the finished result was posted. My cleaned raws were just so beautiful... but then they put all kinds of fonts and garbage on top, which hurt me. LOL
Since my translation group did this, I'm partial. It's sexy and it's got Shokudaikiri Mitsutada in it
My first project. I did the whole thing on my own, working from a bare bones translation. This long three part dj was one I was so curious about that I many times sat in the chinese translation comments and begged the chinese readers there for any hint, any one bubble of what was going on. I wasn't alone in asking for even a few lines, and none of us were ever answered over the course of two years. I worked hard to translate this to English
I decensored chapter one. You can see those pages in my album, Love Shuttle
decensored parts. you can see them in my revenant album. what a nightmare this was. jeez
