Hello and welcome.
In this thread, I am planning to share my extremely lazy and broken translation of Nyatsume Kyoudai -Web-version- 4koma manga by Hinata Nonoka.
This manga is available for free as a promotional material for Line’s series of stickers here.
If you will find this manga entertaining, then consider acquiring those stickers for LINE. By no means, I am advertising them here… so that’s solely on your own volition.
By the way, you can check Kaza’s article on those stickers here.

Now goes the most beloved “DISCLAIMER” corner.
First and the foremost, by no means this translation should be considered as an official one and by no chance can any of my comments here represent the official position, or whatever of Visual Art’s.
Secondary, English isn’t my mother tongue… And that means that my translation may and most likely would be rough around the corners.

Last, but not the least. All of the content in this manga (characters, series, original text, and so on) belongs to Visual Art’s and their affiliates.


General guidelines:
No spoilers on other works of VA may be given in this thread without being hidden under the [spoiler] tag.
By the magical word of Aspi, I grant myself a power to double-post in this thread whenever I find that to be needed.
This (starting) post would work as a sort of a Content’s map with links to further posts with manga chapters.
I will release 2-3 chapters per post with irregular intervals between them.
All of the forum rules apply to this thread just as they should be.

If you plan to share this translation on your website, blog, or anywhere else, then, please, don’t forget to credit us:

Lazy as the translation may be, it certainly looks enjoyable. I want to see more~ :3

I would not be against it.
Though, source images aren’t really good.
If you wish to keep me a company through my irregular releases then write me a PM =)


UPD
With the help of @Kawaii-is-Justice the whole typeset now looks much much better.
Three first chapters are updated now.

Took a little while to read all of those. There were more than I thought. Kagari as Mask the Saito was definitely the highlight. Probably. Even though I just finished reading it, I can’t recall everything now.

Best of luck on translating this. It’s a fun little 4koma for Key fans, although reading the entire thing in one sitting is rather grating. More Key stuff for people to enjoy is always a good thing.

I guess one thing I’ll say is that the flow of dialogue in your translations does come off as a touch stiff. I don’t think everything needs to be contracted or anything, but I can see some places where using contractions would definitely make it more natural, as well as some other places where I do think the translation could be patched up. If you’d like I’d be happy to proofread/clean up/generally help out with the translations. No disrespect meant with any of this.

For people curious about the order of series the 4koma follows, it goes Kanon > AIR > Rewrite > Little Busters. I mean, it’s pretty clear if you look at the page, but yeah.

As I’ve promised! Completely irregular releases!
Well, to be honest… I didn’t expect it to take this much time, but… oh well.
From now on (and until the very end, I hope) @LinkThinks is the Man who Edits it all. Thanks to him English TL now looks like a real English TL (it should!). And thanks to @Kawaii-is-Justice for great typesetting again.
So, here we go.

Thank you for your work on this! I like seeing characters from different Key works interacting with each other.
