LOL bless you for giving that Alternatte ending, translation guys!! love you. It pulled me out of my sad state. It was nice to see the ending I really wanted. yay! If you hadn't made that, I wouldn't have felt good right now. (づ ̄ ³ ̄)づ I hate seeing negative comments to make the translation team who worked hard for free feel bad, and I agree that I don't get why the novel keeps coming up as a way to rag on you is fair at all. That novel is different. You don't even get to see what dick and yuuto look like without that artists beautiful art that I love. that's not part of the novel. I hated the second part of Deadlock if you want the truth. It's bloody awful. After they did the prison part ended, it's not good after that.
And ig liking or not liking depends on perspective. Though I agree the first volume was the best of deadlock, I didn't find the other volumes bad. They were rather good. Specially how she made the Corvus affair end. I think deadlock was her finest. I remember how annoyed I was with Esu. She made it all like a bloody drama that never ends. At one point ya just loose patience and it ain't interesting anymore.
But I agree with keeping the novels and the manga separate. Since I am doing that, and it feels like I see deadlock from another perspective after seeing the manga. I still prefer novels though.
omg I was all set to agree and thank you profusely until that last sentence. LOL I like novels, too, and if that's what you meant, I like your comment very much, it's intelligent and thoughtful. If you're saying the Deadlock novel is preferable over the manga, I've got to add something. I say that Takashinu Yu really brought Deadlock to life. She has to get most of the credit, imo, for the entire project. I think that what ppl forget is that if you read Deadlock in novel form, you have Takashina Yu's fabulous art in your imagination and memory to draw on. I haven't read that much of Saki Aida's DL novel, but her other novels are a trial on my patience. I so agree with you there. SA kills the pleasure by stringing the story out so far that it feels like she's leading the reader by the nose just to keep them reading while being obvious about it. I don't like to be played. When I can see through the story to the money, I stop being pleased with the author for a time. I think her novels are okay, but also an infuriating experience at the same time. Along with the string-out, she will coldly dispose of a character she's made the reader love. She did it with Deadlock, but that's a spoiler I won't reveal. The takeaway from her novels, for me, is that they are okay, even pretty good, but I don't want to go through the emotional roller coaster of reading another.
look spoilers aint that big of a deal when you marked them properly, and there are literally already ppl spoiling what happens with Corvus soooooo I just wanted to know if they end together or not. im not going to waste my time if I end up disliking the ending. yea ik im a freak, I always read the ending first and see if its too my taste, like I literally go to barnes and noble and read the last page lol
Since it's such a little thing lemme tell ya. This manga (if it goes according to the novel and some extras) has a happy ending. Yes they end up together.
Actually, I totally understand spoilers aren't a big deal when marked. But when the first arc hadn't ended, a lotta ppl read some cd translations and started posting spoilers. There was no fun left in the manga. So the translators insisted to stop setting spoilers and ruining the fun. That's it. Ya can ask in private messages if ya want someone to.
The only reward these translators get is the reaction of the readers. You have control of whether or not you get these stories and their timely updates. A good way to stop getting the translations and uploads is to continue being ungrateful, continue to react negatively whenever an update comes out. It's hurtful and insulting to those who give theses stories to you.
I know a few of them so you can believe me on this. It's the number one reason why those who do all the hard work of full scanlation translations quit. It's why there's years between updates. It's why the translators and uploaders just quit and wash their hands of these projects. You discourage them. Those who give you this gift of translations are never, or rarely, rewarded for their hard work, which they don't get paid for except by the gratitude of their audience.
a discusion was abruptly cut off when a person didn't like something someone said. Levanag and I had started a discussion, which I would like to resume. Just before we were cut off, Levang said, "If you would like, I am completely open to having this discussion with you."
Super Condensed: Levanag's current comment: There are some issues that need to be addressed before things like women specific shelters for survivors of rape and abuse. Public sentiment needs to come first.
My response: I disagree. The needs of the individual victims need to be remedied first, not public sentiment.
(this related to the manga but I don't remember the connection now lol)
LOL amen,. There was another part of the discussion about the exec order about trans in women's sports. Levanag said: if women are forced to participate against men, I believe that there should be some kind of strength ranking system. I fully believe that women are capable of becoming as strong as men, they just need to put in extra effort due to biology. With a strength ranking system, people in matches would be chosen based on their physical ability. It would allow a more even matchup, and I'm sure that most female athletes would see this as fair.
open to discussion
I'm not letting that go unopposed. Sorry, and trying to be nice as I can to Leavanang's side. Pluss sorry you've got to hear it from a guy, but maybe women aren't as knowledgeable about combat sports. don't know. I do know that no matter how physically strong one woman is capable of becoming, the competition is still completely unfair. Women don't have the lung capacity, the larger bones, the longer reach, the longer stride, the larger heart, and blood vessels. male to female trans women take estrogen, which strengthens already larger, denser bones. All this holds true even after the trans man has had long term female hormone treatments. Forcing women onto an uneven playing field will lead to injury, even death, and the end of all the gains in women's sports in the past 20 years. Already a biological man in the UFC World Masters Title bou, fought a woman who was of the same weight class. The woman sustained critical injuries including a concussion and a broken skull. If that doesn't make you cringe, I don't know what will. Trans women/biological men don't belong in women's athletics
That's why it wouldn't be "women's athletics." It would be completely co-ed. It would take muscle mass, weight, general strength, as well as testosterone and estrogen levels into account. An athlete would be able to decline any match they felt was unfair or that you felt could cause injury to them. I see nothing wrong if the way matches are chosen is with people in the 5 spaces above or below them.
I wanted to reply to this when you said: Leavanag, you said, "I only meant that public sentiment should come before we include all genders in something like a shelter for rape and abuse. I apologize if it came across differently. One of my ex-boyfriends attempted to rape me. If he had succeeded, I would have been even more traumatized from it than I am now. This is a topic I am quite passionate about."
Me: I'm glad that we just misunderstood each other. I had a feeling that was the case so I didn't want to push it with disagreeing about it too much. I'm glad we continued discussing. I'm glad the other commenters were nice about being okay with it, too.
I don't get why Trans would even want to go against women they know they can slaughter. Yet they do. All I hear is trans breaking women's records in running, cycling. It's so obviously unfair. They really are making my argument for me by performing these ridiculously stupendous wins over women. making it so obvious that the game is fixed in their favor. I think we should keep trans out of women's sports. They don't need to be competing. It's never going to be a good time or enjoyable. People on the side are always going to be outraged about it. They'll turn public favor against them. It's happening all over. Parents and sports fans are raging about it. Trans stealing valuable scholarship money from young women who never saw this trans stuff coming.
I definitely agree with you on that. That's why every athlete would have the right to decline any match. People have begun to forget that sports are not simply for the enjoyment of spectators, they are also for the enjoyment of the athletes. The major concern of the public should be "Is this fun for the athletes?" not "Is this fun to watch?" I find it disgusting how much people enjoy gore in sporting events.
This may not make much sense, but trans people, especially trans-women, spend most of their lives attempting to escape from the gender they were born with. Most trans-women are not going against cis-women because they want to crush records or hurt people. They want to participate in sports with people of their gender. In their eyes, they are women, not trans-women. I was AFAB (assigned female at birth) and I still identify as partially female at all times. In sports like running and swimming, I much prefer to go against women. On the other hand, when I started learning Ju-jitsu, I preferred to grapple with men instead.
Also, feel free to call me Levy from here. It's a bit shorter to type. Only if you'd like, of course.
Jhinak, Electra, Tryintobok, I was asked to deliver a message.
Here's a message from all the people who are this author's fans and want you to get out of our faces and go to hell.
not everyone is all upset. there's fans of this artist and ppl who like the seme for no other reason than he's gorgeous and has muscles. I think he's cool. he's cold. I love it.
godamn, why are you even curious if you hate it that much. Buzz off, fly-bait go read something else or go suck on a pile of smelly garbage.
You're conducting a hate survey?
You're despicable, sitting around analyzing about hateful attitudes. shut up already. Go find something else to do
this is what you get for setting up blocks in this cs. it's frowned on.
Wouldn't it be more fun if they were babysitters for their neighbor's infant for the last chapter?
I think I can also answer you the same way in saying that while you’re correct, there are beyond amazing manga in the omega verse genre without babies this person shouldn’t be in this genre if they’re uncomfy coming across a male with a baby or if it’s “unseemly” because that’s literally omegaverse. I’ll wait while y’all tell me how I took their comment wrong.
I didn’t tell or ask anyone to reveal their gender? Y’all are blowing this way out of proportion. I was never intentionally rude to anyone, how you decided to take it was up to you I’m entitled to my own opinion the exact same way you are. I’ve ALSO been reading this since the beginning? Y’all literally need to relax. It was a one off comment that you’re exploding over let it go.
Ch 9 has a political message, asking for money for an organization that I frankly don't trust. I don't think that sort of thing has any place whatsoever here. I don't like violence and racism. Politics shouldn't be here.
The blm link ?
i didn’t even notice the link until u pointed it out
it shouldn’t bother u that much
