Re: Manga Planet English GNG Discussion and FAQ
The army of pals leave Twin Peaks with their groups to slay a bear.
Silly translations aside, it's cool it's "officially" getting translated. Any chance of a print?

Re: Manga Planet English GNG Discussion and FAQ
I would be thrilled if that were to happen, though, I'm not too crazy on their translations, I would like to have some Ginga in english or spanish (any language I can read at least).

Re: Manga Planet English GNG Discussion and FAQ
Volume 3 is complete now. Apart from the platoon being translated as group issue, I have no complaints for the last chapter in this volume!

Volume 4 has started and can we just give it up for the creative usage of curses used by Cross on page 29?

Re: Manga Planet English GNG Discussion and FAQ
Chapter 4 is out! We get to meet Moss and I completely forgot how... not-huge he is this early in the manga
The difference in translation is interesting, the old fan translation has the Kai brothers talking confrontationally to Jaguar and Lloyd in their first encounter.
Fan translation
Akatora: Ben is a man who believes in truth. Keep your mindless theories to yourself.
Lloyd: You three are with him?
Akatora: Hnn hnn... Yeah I'd think that was obvious. We owe this man, Ben, a debt of gratitude.
vs
Manga Planet
Akatora: Ben is a reasonable man. You shouldn't act or speak without thinking.
Lloyd: Kai brothers, it seems that you've done downhill.
Akatora: Hehe... Say whatever you want. But we've devoted ourselves to serve this man, Ben.
It's little things like this that are interesting to me because they're saying the same thing, but the way they are framed sounds like two different characters. Eg Akatora 1 is patronising and gives the reason why they're with Ben as a defence. Akatora 2 is collected, and doesn't give the reason because he is not obligated to in order to defend his position.
I only reference the old translation as that's all I've known up until now, and I'm finding that I'm experiencing the characters differently because of the phrasing/syntax chosen? In a positive way, I think.
