Ore no Kanojo to Osananajimi ga Shuraba Sugiru
This is the feed back thread for Ore no Kanojo to Osananajimi ga Shuraba Sugiru at: http://www.baka-tsuki.org/project/index ... aba_Sugiru
So, one fine day some months ago, I was walking in Kinokuniya, picking up something which only God remembers, and I saw this book on the light novel shelf. Well, I remembered reading somewhere that with just 2 volumes (and this serialization only started this year), it managed to sell over 100,000 copies (a holy shit number for just 2 volumes over a span of 4 months!). So, supposedly it's good. Looks like a lovecon to me, I thought to myself. Heck, I shall buy it anyway.
So, only a few days ago, I started reading.
So, today I did a teaser here (v1 ch0):
http://www.baka-tsuki.org/project/index ... _Chapter_0
Enjoy.
No information about the series?
Yeah, too lazy. Who cares about that when I'm a supervisor and a translator who can just put up the page?

Lare, shouldn't you repost this with a poll of whether it should be translated or not?

I forgot, since I'm not going to work on this anyway. But added anyway. And if someone is kind enough, make a project page, since I can't be bothered somehow. (There are still a pile of things I need to translate *ramble* *ramble*)

Re: Ore no Kanojo to Osananajimi ga Shuraba Sugiru
Oh, this, I remember seeing a manga released from the novel. Basically its about a guy being threatened to be a girl's boyfriend, only to have his childhood friend getting jealous, creating a lot of comedy?
Or did I get it wrong somewhere?

Re: Ore no Kanojo to Osananajimi ga Shuraba Sugiru
I haven't read the manga, but you're right about the basic setting. I haven't have time to finish the volume yet, but my curiosity as to how this will go is piqued already. The premise behind the protagonist's behavior is nothing spectacular but yet refreshing, meaning it's not really done before. There is actually an interesting draw to it, though I'm disciplined. When I finish it, perhaps I might understand why this title is so hot, and I might even do a review on it. Volume 3 was just released about a week ago. So I'm guessing the Chinese version will be out soon.

Re: Ore no Kanojo to Osananajimi ga Shuraba Sugiru
Well, I won't say the manga is great... Its hard for me to comment about the story, but judging from the characters, I find it hard to like the girlfriend, personally I like the childhood friend more, this may also be due to the fact that not too many chapters are out, barely covering much story. Furthermore, the childhood friend also reminds me of another girl from another novel series I very much enjoy.larethian wrote:I haven't read the manga, but you're right about the basic setting.

Unfortunately for you, if you read this in Chinese, there are a substantial number of jokes that don't translate well, unless they also use references the way we do to explain word play jokes or references. Yes, Masuzu does seem similar to Suzutsuki based on the few episodes I watched of Mayo Chiki, but not totally the same.
Well, I'm almost done (taking a break now), and I find this novel to be Nichijouly boring at times, but somewhat entertaining at other times (more than the former). The jokes are a combination of word play + parody based + stupid situations (--> ^_^"). The structure of the novel is somewhat charming, with each chapter prepended by some information about the setting or characters which are sometimes presented in a funny way. And the short chapters make it easy to read. The saving grace for me, or rather, the part which I find somewhat refreshing is that the protag is akin to an anti-hero. Since Furthermore, he is the straight man of the series, throwing tsukkomis left and right, especially at the two girls

IN most of the cases, it's references that are added. However, I can still understand the plot even without.larethian wrote:Unfortunately for you, if you read this in Chinese, there are a substantial number of jokes that don't translate well, unless they also use references the way we do to explain word play jokes or references.

yeah you can understand the plot, but it's a lovecon, so it becomes bland without the jokes.kira0802 wrote:IN most of the cases, it's references that are added.

Been browsing the novel illustrations, I wish I didn't delete the raws, it was a mistake.
