Looks more like "tsukiage" to me.

Nice one, that's obviously it. Thanks for helping me with my brain fart!

Sorry for the double post, but the "Edit" button was giving me grief. I've got another trouble spot, and this one's quite a bit rougher.



I'm working on a very old, LQ Viper RSR doujin. Most of the text is readable, but this box from the first page is killing me. The second and third vertical lines are where I'm struggling most.

"Ka-ra mo, yahari *** no biyaku ni ha * tezu,"

I'd love any help I can get filling in those missing kanji.

"Ka-ra mo, yahari *** no biyaku ni ha * tezu,"

淫美蟲 and 勝. I'm 100% sure of 勝, but I must confess I'm not really sure about the other ones.

Yea, "淫美蟲" was appeared in the "VIPER RSR" doujin.

Hey do anybody know what this page said

https://e-hentai.org/s/982a53bb3a/716698-143

@KirbyDances + Thira: Thanks to both of you. I appreciate the assist.

PS: do you happen to remember if they were bugs vs. worms vs. whatever? I'll go with the former if you don't.

I want to know what they're saying

I could use some help translating this line:

へーきだせーがも褒めてくれたぞ
(せーが = Seiga, her boss)

Translating it as "She spoke well about you" sounds too odd in this context, so I was thinking about changing it to "She said I should help you", but that sounds far too explicit (I'm assuming she wants to keep her involvement hidden, mostly based on her thoughts near the end of the book). So, any ideas?

On a related note, any suggestions on how to translate zombie moans? ("おお..." in the original)

(Apparently I can't post an URL; the passage is in "(Reitaisai 10) [StrangeChameleon (Hisaka Tooru, Mikagami Hiyori)] Walking dead (Touhou Project)", page 9)

Just a bit of help with Alice Books.

Thanks (again) N04h~!

if me, i think i would translate it close to what you do..

へーきだせーがも褒めてくれたぞ
heiki da, seiga mo hometekureta ze
"It's fine, you got praised too by Seiga..."

it's weird.. i can't find the doujin..

or so i think... (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

Hey guys, I've got a sentence that I'd like a double-check on. It's from the same viper RSR doujin as before.

マラネロの、カーラを本当に堕とすという目的の為に
村人達の前に差し出されたその身に受けた

Thanks for the help!

need some help for a song translation.

男なら潔く熱く

the 潔く part read as "isagiyoku" but somehow in the song i kinda heard it as "kiyoku / giyoku"
what romaji is right for that one?

i think the literal translation itself goes like this, "If you're a man, then do this with a fiery bravery"
what is the best translation for that sentence?

Part of the lyrics :

命ある限り　辛くたって
男なら潔く（いさぎよく）熱く
それが　謳うべき生き様だから

from the song : 時空のパルス by Faylan

thank you

"Nara" is not really "if" in the strictest sense. Something like "men alone" will do X or Y (whatever the song says). Of course, it's not using dake either.

I still recall never getting a proper explanation for the usage of Nara from either my textbook or my Japanese teacher back in the day, it is not the literal "only" of dake, but it is something more potent than "if." Something like "naturally a man will do this thing," but very hard to express in English, especially if you want it to be at all lyrical as a translated song should be.

If that helps at all :-P

Can someone tell me what is meant in the second part of the connected bubble?

"I thought that you had gone through (or suffered through) something like that earlier"

Hmmm... It still doesn't quite make sense to me... I'm not sure how the dialog then flows into the next bubble.

https://e-hentai.org/s/26041bd1dc/680576-28

Just checking, but the contents of the top left bubble can be translated as something like:

"Hehe... So you're admitting you're a pervert..."

"Since I had the terrible experience, I made up my mind."

"Hehe... You're perv. You give me the creeps..."
