When this is posted (or the day before, to be precise) it’s been a year since I started translating this web-novel. Before I knew it, it’s been 250 new chapters (plus several side stories) and 79 retranslated ones.

I started translating with two goals: 1. Provide a translation that is as true to the original as possible, 2. Make it enjoyable to read. I feel like I moved away somewhat from the first goal to improve the second, so I’m not sure if it got better or worse over that year.
I think my grasp on the language improved, though not nearly as much as I’d have liked it to. I still find myself using DeepL frequently as a second opinion on sentences that feel weird/wrong, and, embarrassingly enough, it still makes me realize errors in my own version often enough.

I feel comfortable with the current six chapters per week, so I’ll likely keep it that way. Although I’m still planning to translate the two light novels the series got before it was apparently axed, so I might run this in parallel at some point.
