Warning about Pleasant & others

Yeah, well, when authors start to use hearts and shit like that, Google Translate kinda breaks down crying in his own little corner before muttering intelligible things like:

“Wow ♥ ぅ ♥ あ ♥ あ ぁ ♥ あ ♥ あ ん あ ♥ あ あ ~ … ‥ ♥”

“Oh … … … __, sorry ………… あ ♥”

… …. ♥ … …. Oh, ♥ ♥ ♥ ___ ___, ___ ___ ___ ___ ___ ___ ___ ___ 0

Ugh ♥ ♥ O – ♥ Oh ♥ Oh … ¡¡__ ___ ___ ___ ___ 0 ___ ___ ___ 0 ♥

“Ku, Ooo!? Yuuka Say … … What a naughty, tighten up like this … ___ ___ ___ 0

っ っ ぱ っ !! Ejaculation is getting wearing out! I can not stop it ♪ Oh … ♪ ♪ “

“- Ha あ ♥ あ ♥ や で ♥ あ ょ あ ♥ お ぐ ♥ お … …, ♥ ♥ ぁ ぉ ぉ ぅ ♥”

And more.

I usually replace them with their romanji if they are just onomatopoeias, and if they aren’t I either translate them or take out of the hearts and such and let google do it.

But it’s annoying, so I just remove the heavily incoprehensive ones (see above) and leave the rest. Going forward, unless I really like the story, I’m not gonna bother with authors that do this shit and stick with stories without symbols, e.g. Pilgrimage and Alicia.

  1. Well, i don’t know about others but at least now i can find ntr novels easier, and like you said in anothe rpost at least you are raising awareness for others to pick up the projects (nothing like self-rightousness to motivate someone right?) but i have an small request/suggestion, you are free to not take it since it could involve more work for you.

    Well i was thinking that maybe you should put the translation line by line, i mean first the unstranslated line of text then the translated line. That way if we want to use our brains we have an easier time of locating the line we want to transalte (for example i use ATLAS along with Jparser to help me MT VN, it helps a lot). That way you could also get some updates for better translation by your readers, maybe.

    PD: i laughed at the way you referred to people taking up your projects (good actitude by the way, and yeah it is a victory) but if you really want to fell ntred then you should have picked up reading A song of ice and fire, faithfully waiting YEARS for the next book to come up….only to see the tv series (game of thrones in case it wasn’t obvious) reaching and surpassing the point of the books T.T (WHy George WHY??!!!!!!)

    1. Actually, when you C&P directly from GT to WordPress, WP actually saves the kanji in the tooltips, I just removed it since I thought it’d be bothersome for others, but I can keep it, just keep your mouse over some text for a while and it will pop up (from the series after Pleasant onward, tho!)

      1. I will assume that is from chapter 3 onwards, unless is something that doesn’t show/work on firefox? Also, thanks you for pointing me in the direction of the novels, i would probably read them myself but i find i really anoying trying to decipher what they are about……at least thanks to you i know if they are ntr or not plus the plot more or less xD

        PD: do you know of any brutal ntr involving abuse, mostly fromt he girl once she turns bad xD, maybe something like a hero that gets his party/harem stolen, even better if ther eis some corruption or swich in allegiances (as in they end up attacking him), i know of 1 novel that has a subplot like that, but only 1 sadly T.T and like i said is only a subplot, an arc at best.

        1. I use firefox too lol And no, I said series, not chapter, so Pleasant shouldn’t have had it, though now I’m not sure since I did the last few chapters on my phone lol

          about recomendations, dunno about novels like that yet (tho surely going forward i’m gonna find them), but if you’re alright with manga, just search for ntr + femdom and you’ll find them, the more brutal ones usually also have the fantasy and CBT tags…

      2. Well, the site i usuallyuse aparently doesn’t have CTB (wich i may be thankfull for xD) and doesn’t really have fantasy as a tag, so if you either come across 1 of those manga please tell me xD, also or a site where to look them up myself with a good search option and tags xD

        And of course novels,BTW i see Pleasant still doesn’t have a project page, you should remedy that, the project page is the part i am most thankfull for sinc eis way easier that navigating the hundreds of WN in that site……

        1. I make the project page before posting a project, so both Pleasent and Sofia have it, it’s just that I haven’t added them to the menu yet.

          As for sites, I just use tsumino and the cooler version of e-hentai 😉
