Hey, can I give a once over to some chapters? It seems like you guys are going for faithfulness to the original over proper english, writing phrases in weird ways, here and there.

For example saying "myself don't know" instead of "I don't know"

Mushoku Tensei

Hey Maglad, the translators are sometimes using secondary translation and also focused on speed over quality. This is when editors come in and try to polish things.

Btw thanks for the attempt on interpreting the three people and wisdom - but it's actually a different concept. Always think of Japanese/Chinese proverbs or game/Asian pop culture context. In this context, it's the Confucian saying 'If three people meet, there must be a teacher of mine among them' or something along that wording (one of the olddd saying which exact saying has been butchered around) Acolyte (talk) 09:04, 1 August 2014 (CDT)

Mushoku Tensei

Dear Maglad

Thank you for helping with the Mushoku Tensei project, I just wanted to tell you that vanant has already done vol 20 and did a great job. Of course you're free to translate it again if you want , but it would be a great help if you could translate vol 18 or 19 since most of them are machine translations.

Best regards
