Working on 39 for Waiting, and I've got my pitfalls already... on the very first page no less...

今年もいっぱいお仕事がありました
It has been a busy year. (needs a more accurate word...)

And this one.
でもやっぱり マスタのいる我が家が一番落ち着く ミクさんなわけで...

I'm having trouble with two phrases.

In this phrase here:
えっちなおツコでいっぱいの早苗のいけないおまんこをお仕置きして.

What does the "おツコ" mean and why's there a "の" between "いっぱい" and "早苗"?

And what's the meaning of:
一部の。。。方にとっては。。。？

I don't see a problem with your translation, but maybe: There was a lot of work to do this year.

And this one.
でもやっぱり マスタのいる我が家が一番落ち着く ミクさんなわけで...

But Miku-san really calms down the best in a house　where master is...

えっちなおツコでいっぱいの早苗のいけないおまんこをお仕置きして.

What does the "おツコ" mean and why's there a "の" between "いっぱい" and "早苗"?

Are you sure it's おツコ and not おシコ?
If it's おシコ, then おシコ=おしっこ=literally piss/pee, but since it's えっちなおシコ, then something like "naughty juice". If it's really おツコ, then I don't know.
The "の" between "いっぱい" and "早苗" looks like standard "(noun)でいっぱいの (noun)" usage to me (ex. 予約でいっぱいの店).

一部の。。。方にとっては。。。？

方（かた）here means people, so it's something like "for /some/certain types of/ people...?"

Hope this helps.

I don't know the context, but maybe "I'm glad because I had many..." will be fit.

えっちなおツコでいっぱいの早苗のいけないおまんこをお仕置きして.

It must be "おツユ" (= "juice").

I'm pretty sure it's おツコ but maybe it's just the font.

And this one.
でもやっぱり マスタのいる我が家が一番落ち着く ミクさんなわけで...

I'd switch to first person, because those types of sentences really don't translate well directly ([big relative clause]+name). You also dropped 我が家
"But in the end, I'm most comfortable at home with Master..."

I'm pretty sure it's おツコ but maybe it's just the font.

That is indeed a ユ

This one also needs proofreading...
そして ステージ公演 (And now, the stage performance.)
ついには 世界進出まで (Miku had finally advanced to worldwide fame)
近頃ますますご活躍ミクさん

Nope, this is a narration describing lots of works this year really, and I don't quite know the accurate English equivalent.

Thanks a lot... uh, did I drop that one? I'm quite certain that I triple checked the transcription...

I'd nominate : "But in the end, Miku feels the most comfortable to be at home with Master..."
Is this good enough?

I meant the other person didn't include it in their translation with "in a house"

Looking at the actual page, I'd translate it all in order as

This year was a busy year for Miku
From car advertising
To starring in the sequel of a hit game.
And live performances
Finally reaching all the way to her international debut!
Lately Miku has exploded in popularity (taking a bit of liberty with ご活躍, successful)
But really...
Miku feels the most comfortable to be at home with Master...

What about this one?
何だか 遠くへ行ってしまったような気がして~

Literally "Somehow it feels like you've gone to a far away place", but something like "I feel like you're getting further and further out of reach..." I guess

"I feel like you're getting further and further out of reach..."

Agreed. It might be worth noting that she's quoting him so the quotation marks are a part of the sentence.

Hello guys. I can't quite understand the word 憚れる in the top panel can anyone explain it to me? (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)
Sought around Jap. dictionary and still no clues. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

And yes, does 欲 sound more of "want" than "greed" in the case?

Using 憚る in potential form like that seems like a mistake to me, it's usually used in the passive 憚られる (e.g. 口にするのも憚られる, hesitate to say out loud or something)

in which case I think
人の欲は千差万別、中には衆人の面前で憚られる話もございましょう
would mean something like
The desires of man are endless in nature, no doubt among them are those which one would prefer to keep hidden from the public eye

Oh my god you're so awesome (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/wub.gif)
Thank you! (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/wub.gif)

On this page - https://e-hentai.org/s/992cd80c4a/593301-266 - on the third panel, there's floating text that says '遠い目'. Most sources are telling me it's more or less "a faraway look", but is there a better way to put it into English without it sounding quite so strange on the page? All I could think of was "Eyes glaze over", but that doesn't sound quite right, and has additional meanings that aren't in the original.

How about "Staring off into the distance", although that's a bit long

Thanks, both of you. For now, I'm thinking of going with "Distant stare" but I guess it'll always sound weird since English doesn't explain expressions like that in comics.

Your link, Thira, matches with the context pretty well - it seems to most often be the faraway look one has when reminiscing or thinking back to a previous occurrence.
So maybe just "Flashback time~" or "Unbidden memories" would work (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

How about this one? I understand it's meaning but I couldn't quite make the English equivalent for it accurately enough...
ミクがこんな風にドキドキするのは 世界中でマスターだけなんですよ?
まだ自信 つきまぜんか?

Or do you still need more convincing?
