Artist Acro - Ch 19 (English)

 

19th story of Artist Acro! Had some time this week to actually sit down and get it done. Things are getting interesting~ I hope we get to see a new character soon!

Also since I have some more time over the end of the year, I'm considering uploading Vol 2 of Artist Acro onto Mangadex. Feels like a shame to just leave the chapters in this little backhole I've dug into the internet, and I have hope other people who don't know it already will enjoy this series too. There was enough of Buster Keel already released when I picked it up for folks to go searching for it of their own volition (which is what I had been anticipating) so I figure it's different with AA.

Anyway, that is to say I'll probs just dump Vol 2 onto MD sometime in the near future. But for now, hope y'enjoy Artist Acro Chapter 19, typeset in English!!

Artist Acro - Ch 18 (English)

 

Chappie 18! This one went a bit smoother thanks to less stuff happening and less pages in general (back to the short 18-pagers). It also helps that my Japanese is starting to actually get to the level where I can sorta tell what each sentence is getting at? @__@ There's still plenty of holes in my understanding at first, but I'm psyched by how much it's been helping keep the suspense and organic feeling of experiencing the manga at first exposure without all the translator-inbetween-ness and garbled junk it tends to spit out. In particular with the impacts in this chap. Oof.

This chapter also has a pretty neat play on words that I tried to work in, in the form of awkward English. I wrote a few notes to explain what's happening, but I thought it was really clever and I'm sure the genius is totally lost in translation :( never really encountered this kind of word play before in my short scanlating career so I'm not really sure whether to take it as a sign of improvement in personal proficiency or just my first time seeing it. Probs both? Hopefully? :)

All right post rambling is over here's Artist Acro Chapter 18, typeset in English!
