Description

I've decided to start uploading pages in chunks for easier reading from now on.

I had SO MUCH FUN hamming it up like mad with Neuro's lines ^_^ I find he can be a bit boring in literal translations cos English concepts of what's rude and insulting are obviously different to Japanese ones. And its even worse in versions that decide to litter around random swear words instead, its just comical to hear an overly posh smart-talking guy suddenly yell BITCH! xD
So yeah, I took a lot of artistic license and it may or may not be as good as the original but at least it was fun to write ^_^

Also its strange how most translators are apparantly too afraid to ever alter word balloons when the text doesn't fit. I even used to be like that back when I started translating Valhalla, cos I thought it was some sort of rule XD
Its much easier if you just fiddle around widening the space when necessary. As long as it doesn't cover anything important, none of the readers will care.

Trivia: "Mind Eater" is literally what his surname Nougami means, but in this context it wouldn't make any sense to not translate it. I mean, it isn't very imposing to say "I have a japanese surname!" *turns into dodo and screeches*
I was considering something like he says "My name means..." but it sounded too unnatural.
