In fact, also original (Japanese) text doesn't mention that "タップリ" refers what ("三回", "射精" or both).
Well, it may be good if you use "for three times" instead of "three times".


Ah... So basically it's ambiguous what the "plentiful" applies to... I think the TL I was working with noticed that as well and he figured it applied to the quantity (ie how much semen was ejaculated), hence why version2+3 has the emphasis on the semen volume (to his heart's content/plentifully)

I'd like a bit of help with what I suspect is slang.
Context:
Person A: 現人神である私には造作もないのです!
Person B: 現人神しょっぺえなあヲイ!
I know what しょっぱい means in the normal context, but what's the meaning here? My intuition says its like
Person B: [Saying you are a] "Living god" is a bit much, oy!

This "しょっぱい" is kinda "sour(=not worth much)".
ex.: "しょっぱい試合"="mean match" (often it means "a match without exciting scenes")

So, this "現人神しょっぺえなあヲイ!" means "(If you are,) Arahitogami(/human being deity) is a mean deity, huh?"

I am having an issue with the sentence "身内を殺されて人類に絶望した勢いで10億滅ぼすほどの豆腐メンタル" [this is the exact sentence with no typo]

I am simply lost on this sentence. It is describing something about the villain of a certain series if that helps. I have some ideas about how to translate it, but they aren't good enough and are likely inaccurate to some extant. Especially 豆腐メンタル...Tofu mental? WTF is that?

I would greatly appreciate the help.

In this case, I think I'll translate it like
"You're mean for a living god, huh."
because I don't think the claim of godhood is supposed to be taken at face value, it's a boast.

As an aside, Arahitgoami is in the dictionary as

1: living god (term for the emperor);
2: miracle-working god (who appears as the occasion demands)

When it's not used in the context of the Japanese emperor, could 1 be translated as "a god incarnate" or something? Or should I default to 2, when it's not the emperor?

No.
He means "If you call yourself as Arahitogami, I think Arahitogami which you imagine is a mean deity".

He simply uses the word as a joke of "omnipotent human".
So, you also can translate it as "Chuck Norris" lol.

Ah, I think I got it now. So, to make it fit into the bubble,
"you've got a pretty mean idea of what a living god is like, huh!"
Or something?

Hi, quick silly question about a line from this page.

りゅーふいりゅー みふぇれんふゅう ふぃふぁ

Can anyone make heads or tails about what Yuka is saying? Or is her blowjob talk supposed to be incomprehensible to fluent Japanese readers? Thanks!

Edit: I see, that makes sense. Thanks again yobi00, I really appreciate it!

Hi folks!

To complete my last translation, there is one damn sentence that gives me headache. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

Here it is: " 欲望ウミダス安産タイプ...!!! "

It's the "anzan" part that disturb me.
I can't find anything good to write and I don't want to make up a whole new sentence.

Please, help the poor me before I kill myself. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/cry.gif)

"安産型(easy-delivery-type)" is euphemistic expression of "big butts".

I am driven crazy by this postscript in a manga. It is the greatest of evils, handwritten Kanji.
(IMG:[i.imgur.com] http://i.imgur.com/C8XEOXu.png)
I get ごXXがありましたらよろしくお願いします!
"Go__ ga arimashitara yoroshiku onegaishimasu!"
The missing Kanji is breaking my head. The best match I can find for the shape is 綵, which doesn't seem to be right at all. Is this some arcane secret kanji or did he miswrite it? Is there a slightly different kanji that makes sense in context?

It's "ご縁がありましたらよろしくお願いします!". This is a pretty common phrase that hard to translate literally, but meaning something like "hope to see you again".

"ご縁がありましたら よろしくお願いします!"

The author miswrote "縁" as "緑".

Thank you both! None of the Jpn-Eng dictionaries I use know any constructs like that. I did check that kanji, but I dismissed it along with a bunch of other "unlikely" ones.

I have a few that I hope you guys can help me with:

Here and here, the word バックプリーズ is used. Not only do I have no idea what that means (what is a "back-please"?), I have no idea what it means in the context of these sentences.

I am having difficulty reading the unbubbled text in the second panel here. Could I please ask if someone could translate it for me, or at least transcribe it for me?

In panel one of this page, what does っっかい mean or refer to? I am also confused about this. Does it mean "I prefer this way of asking" or something like that?

On this page's first panel, does he say "you must forget" or "you must not forget"? I am 98% sure it is "you must forget", but the な after 忘れなければ is confusing me.

How should I translate the sfx in the last panel here and the very last sfx of the whole page here?

And last but not least, I have the text in the last panel of this page as "This moment…anything becomes a difficult-to-replace eternity. It was the person who taught me that [if the next page is actually a part of the main story and not a bonus page, drop “that”]"
-------------------------------
As you can see, I have a few issues with this one, so I would greatly appreciate the help. Thanks
