[X] My Assistant

Since LS noted he would also like to get this translated, it made it to the top of my "what to bountify next" queue. Really nice art, I think. In fact, I looked over some other works of Mimikaki, and I realized he has done some dojins I really liked in the past, even if he is not ver famous or well tagged in the galleries.

Translate the linked gallery into English. This is a translation-only bounty, a separate bounty will be posted for editing job after the translation bounty is completed.

This translation includes credit pages. Broken Engrish craplation will not be accepted.

This is my 36th individual (no project) translation bounty. This release will be under an [EHCOVE] group tag. You (the translator) will be credited for your work on a credit page unless you want to be anonymous.

Gallery link: https://e-hentai.org/g/438987/36c30fde41/

If you accept the bounty, accept it here, PM me and post here. Once you've done so, the bounty will be reserved for you, however, if the translation is not completed within 2-3 weeks and you are unresponsive, it will be considered stalled/dropped and other translators will be allowed to work on it.

In addition to the carriers listed, you can also just post the translation in the forums.

Also:
* Due to potential misunderstandings about how to split the bounty between translators and editors that resulted in my recent bounties costing me 50%-100% more than listed price, I am now splitting the bounty between translating and editing. The first bounty that goes up in the system is for translating only. Once I have the translation, I'll post the editing bounty;
* broken Engrish craplation will not be accepted;
* yes, please translate (or at least summarize) any existing author's rants, credits, titles of content, and so on, if present;
* yes, please translate into English non-moan SFXes (examples: bounce, giggle, jinngle, creak);
* if you do the translating, you should accept the bounty, PM me and post here. Once you've done so, the bounty will be reserved for you, however, if the translation is not completed within 2 weeks, it will be considered stalled/dropped and other translators will be allowed to work on it;
* if you do the editing: please note I would like to upload the gallery to e-h system myself; I am not expecting much profit, but as a fellow bounty poster said it, it's all about prestige. What I pay out with the bounty is usually worth more then the gallery will make in the year. If you end up posting the translated doujin to the e-h galleries, I'll probably halve the bounty (if you did the translation and editing), or refuse to pay (if you did the editing only; note that the translator will still get fully paid by me);
* crappy editing will not be accepted;
* please include credits with the translator name (unless they requested here to be anonymous), yourself as an editor (if you want), and my nickname (and those of others who contributed to this bounty significantly) as the sponsor, as well as the name of any other major sponsors for the translation and editing (check bounties). Also, note this is an [EHCOVE] release, add a link to the name of our site (E-hentai) as the host, and invite readers to use our bounty system or join us as editors/translators. Sample credit pages: link;link, link and (now that's cool!) link;
* those bounties are for the hard work (translation and editing). If you just found the gallery somewhere and just uploaded it here, you are not eligible for my bounties, but I will still give you a reward - 5+5 (apply for it here);
* if you find a hq version of the J raw, whether it has or hasn't been translated, I'll reward you for it with a 2+2 reward (apply for it here (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) );

And contributed. The fact that there were many nice pin-ups of characters from shows I saw long time ago definitely was a good motivation for me to do so. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

In that case may I also invite you to https://e-hentai.org/bounty.php?bid=5640

(we have #3 in the galleries)

Hey Red_Piotrus, I would like to take this on.

I've already included some info when I accepted the bounty.

I can also do editing if you want me to, after the translation.

Looking forward to the translation. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Excellent news (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Please go ahead and start, we will be looking forward to it.

(IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Glad to see some people are very interested.

Please give me a month to translate-- It's my first official translation and I have tons of stuff to do IRL. I'm considering this a nice break from work/study.

Edit:
I managed to start yesterday, and get a good amount of pages done. Here's as far as I got. Let me know if I should change the way of some stuff.

-Definitely needs QRing and second opinions. wording/grammar are not my forte.
-There's almost always hearts at the end of sentences/phrases instead of a proper punctuation, so that's varied too (commas or periods).
-Contents pages were annoying but easy. ^^

Thanks for sharing what you've so far.

Particularly as I know some people who said they have part of the work done and then disappear - wasted effort. I hope you'll finish it, but if not, at least we have a start (and you'll be credited, of course).

I will, it might take a bit before I work on it again, but I try to set off a big chunk of time. Maybe in a few days?

Do you think it looks fine so far?

Looks good to me. An editor may have some further questions, but those will have to wait for when we have an editor (should be few days after the translation is done, unless perhaps LS would like to work on it?).

Sorry for the long wait. I've decided to sit my ass down today and finish this.
Interesting to TL, kinda boring because there was no story and annoying because they never finish sentences....

Perhaps after a PR screening, it'll be ready to TS.

Looks good, feel free to claim the bounty. I read the text and it seems to me (non-native speaker of English and w/ no knowledge of written Japanese) to be done well.

For problematic parts like 今モーレツに= you may want ask here or in one of the threads for asking questions, I am sure others may chip in.

And if you want something more interesting, I do have a number of existing and proposed bounties with much more of a plot. I will be looking forward to more of your work at EHCOVE!

For problematic parts like 今モーレツに= you may want ask here or in one of the threads for asking questions, I am sure others may chip in.

That's why I asked for a PR to come and check the translations. I would like a second opinion.

Also, I would be interested in typesetting maybe half the pages for this. I have some TS experience.

PR... peer reviewer? We don't really have anybody like that.

PR= Proofread. Basically a second person to see what could be improved in my translation (as well as someone to translate the SFXes into English ones-- I'm not very good at that....)

I accepted this bounty and should be done in a few days.

Also, I proofread for free (when editing something) and can translate sfx for a little extra on the bounty. PM me to let me know if you'd like me to do either.

Sounds good! Bounty upped.

Just a quick update:

Cropping and cleaning completed

Thumbs up!

Update # 2:

Typesetting complete.

All that's left is the quality check and final touch ups. I'm toying around with different fonts and trying to put as many of the sfx as I can (within reason) in the manga itself. (as opposed to the standard "sfx:()" you usually see at the bottom of the page - though sometimes it can't really be helped)
