It's a magical world

Zuibun hisashiburi nan da ne! Yeah, I fell off the wagon with this one because grad school was just too much work. But, the chapters are shorter, I'm less busy, and I'm working with urashichiken as a translator. This translation doesn't have sound FX, so you'll have to check the scanlation for those (not done by me! which is good because the SFX take freaking forever). I'm also following along with the printed manga, and I'm updating the Gate 7 map of Kyoto as things continue.

( It's been a while, in this century. )

Very much a work in progress; as usual, I'll post to the comms when it's finished. I'm also working on a little Gate 7 tour of Kyoto post, stay tuned… ETA: I made a Gate 7 map of Kyoto. I'll keep updating it as the series goes along. /eta ETA^2: Fixed character name & line attributions in the last few pages thanks to sjou and la_vie_noire! /eta

Finally, while this blog post is an April Fool's joke, it gives you an idea of some of the weirdness that lingers around the edges of some so-called scholarly endeavors, to say nothing of pop culture representations, relating to Nobunaga. He has a titanically bad reputation, to say the least.

I forgot how long these damn chapters are. Also, as a historian, this one is really fucking creepy. The rest tomorrow or Friday, depending.

( You wake up forgetting. )

I don't have time to finish this translation tonight (I have a Chinese test to study for, ack), but here are the first 12 pages. When it's all finished I'll remove the 'in progress' label and post it to the comms. Finished!
