Translations for RHS ep. 104

I spent way too long making these look nice

I changed the wording for some of the translations so they made more sense in the context of the situation.

Example: the translation I got for “.. 얼른 받아.” was “.. Take it.”, but I felt that sounded harsh, so I changed it to “.. Have it.”

Some of the sound effects (aka 타다닷 and 스윽) didn’t make sense when I translated them, so I left them untranslated, but the ones that make sense are labelled as sfx: ___

I also broke the original formatting at the end to make it flow better

The translations were “Because I like it.” “You.”, but I changed it to “It’s because I like” “you.”

@trimaster25 I would have replied in the comments, but I don't want to have what I say be too broken up, so I'm writing it here.

In my opinion, it's not just the pacing in RHS that's screwed up, it's also the plotline. The basic plotline of our main cast dying together and attending RHS is simple enough, but when the plot begins to develop, the universe the characters are in begins to crumble.

I'll start with their school years. Their 1st and 2nd years are already completed, so I'll focus on those. Off the top of my head, I'll name the plot points that stick out in these two years.

1st year:

Red Eclipse Festival

Secret Buddy

Midterms

Sports Festival

Trip to Hell

2nd Year

Gardens

44 Day

Red Eclipse Festival

While the 1st year is dragged on with events, the 2nd year doesn't give time for those events to occur. The 2nd year resolves a few episodes after the Red Eclipse Festival takes place (which was dragged out to 17 episodes). It isn't logical for the school year to just end after the Red Eclipse Festival. The freshmen would still need to have time for those events, so where did it go?

The next big thing I want to touch on is inconsistency. I'll use Mook for my example.

So, Mook is a sea serpent. When this is revealed to us is during the end of episode 8, and into the beginning of episode 9. It's made out to be that Mook turns when it rains. He is inside when it is raining, so there's no way he could've gotten wet. But, later on, when Mook being a sea serpent continues to be touched on, Mook only turns when he is in water for a period of time. It doesn't make sense as to how he turned in the dorms.

Now, onto another weird inconsistency. Mook's name was marked with an S during episode 9. This presumably stands for Sacrifice. But, once his death is revealed, it shows that he died by being crushed by a rock. This would surely be marked as an accident, right? If something other than the ocean were to throw that huge rock on him, wouldn't they have been shown to at least the reader?

I'm not the only one who feels that the pacing is off (@acliofromthelight and I have discussed it before). Hoppefully this clears up some of my reasoning for finding the pacing and plot awkward.

RHS Ep. 105 Translations

Part 1!

About that last line of dialogue and my opinion on it: I believe that is Aru realizing that she needs to stop being discriminatory against Mook.

[grackielechuga]

I guess I'll also post this here

Thumbnails from episodes 104 (bottom) and 105 (top)

My guess is that Mook confessed to and Aru is pondering what she should do

Reblog with any of your theories!

Quick translations for this little bit of ep. 102.

(The one where Mari is speaking all blocky)

I'm hoping these are right

Hi, I've been thinking about this for hours

So I've been thinking to myself "Why does Mook look like a mouse in this panel?" for months, and I finally figured out why

He looks like Yuki Sohma

They aren't identical, but like... it's freaking me out
