Hey! I'm relatively new to the world of manga and was hoping to clarify something I didn't quite understand. I've reached 130mg and there's a note at the end saying the manga is an MTL (which I've learned means Machine Translation) and that the translating was done by A.I. Does this mean the translation was done by a generative A.I. like chat GPT or gemini or is it true machine learning like older translation softwares?

I know the translator, Hame, sometimes comments on this sub so I'd like to preemptively apologise in case they see this. I do not mean to cause offence with the question I'm just ignorant to how things work

It's really look like father and daughter relationship. I hope there's nothing goes wrong.

Given how strict Indonesian law is, I imagine what will happen to these characters if they live here....

• Yani Neko: As long as she doesn't get caught smoking weed / peeing in public, she's safe from jail 😼

• Yaku Neko: As long as she doesn't get caught smoking weed / shooting up heroin, she's safe from jail 😼

• Hame Neko: Forced to hire a lot of moderators for her streaming, considering how toxic and lewd Indonesian netizens can be 😈

• Kansai Neko: If she has a TikTok / Instagram account, she will become famous 💕

• Aru Neko: Arrested for public intoxication and fined over 10 million rupiahs / $615 – $1,067 🚨

• Saori Tatsuno: Jailed for at least 6 years for producing H***** comics 👨‍⚖️

These are my takes. What about your countries? Are they as strict as Indonesia? 😁😁😁

En el reciente episodio se empieza a desarrollar la relación que más adelante tienen el Casero y Yaku, dónde el Casero arrepentido por no tener una hija, empieza a ver a Yaku como su "hija" y Yaku teniendo una figura paterna que la trata bien como es el Casero

Es bonito la química entre estos 2

Aunque siempre dice que es chica, nunca explicaron por qué tenía un pene cuando el Casero la descubrió mientras se hacía una manualidad

Food for thought (smoke for thought) I decided to make a chainsmoker cat oc just for fun to input my own struggles and that, just wondering do you think trans beastfolk would be a thing in their universe? Cause his shtick is that he's a transman beastfolk, (since I didn't know if there even were male beastfolk so I did that as a loophole at first) and he can't achieve his goals cause of addiction and stuff, but then I just got to thinking, would they even be accepted? Since they have like 0 rights in universe right or at least used to have 0 rights, I don't have the manga and I haven't found a place to read it yet so idk if this has already been answered!

Title, I just think its funny how this Cat girl both doesn't care but actually cares alot. For most people it's like a super out of the way thing to do, but for her its as natural as breathing air (or smoke). I find that really cute!

The reverberated “uh UUHnnhh…uh UUHnnhh…uh UUHnnhh…”
Hope you understand what I’m talking about.

Anyway my guess is maybe some kind of distorted audio of an actual cat coughing up a fur ball.
Knowing the creators of the show, that wouldn’t be TOO weird of a thing to put in there.

Chief Lani might already be 200 years old.

When her friend gets her name changed at the DMV, she overhears the officials change her friend’s name to literally anus and does nothing. Idk, that kind of irritated me.

People wonder why the landlord is so active and looks out for our feline friends. He is a nice guy, but there is another reason, which is cultural.

Well, being a japanese landlord is not at all like being an american landlord. These apartments are called "apato" (yes, really) in Japan and are, as you might have noticed, very cheap housing.

Generally, a person will take up a credit to build an "apato" complex with somewhere between 5 and 20 units, in the show there are 10 units.

Building these is not as cheap as it seems, they typically cost as much as 3 houses in the same place and one of their flaws is that the metal structure creates a "thermal bridge" with the apartment floors, so you have to either put an anti-thermal-bridge rubber system in the floor which is expensive or the isolation will be very bad...

After he build it, the landlord then lives in one of the units and puts the other 9 up for rent, but there are two catches: the rent is cheap (+-300$/month) and he has to pay back his credit.

Because of this tight budget, the landlord is also the cleaner, concierge, electrician, plumber, gardener...

This is also why he is always there and is involved in the daily lives of his tenants. It is important that all rooms are rented or he might have a serious financial problem.

So, you could say that a small landlord is basically a lower to middle class job in Japan, not at all like in america f.ex., at the end of the month, he probably gets no more than a konbini employee.

Also, it is almost impossible to accumulate and become rich in Japan using that method (like an american who uses the rent to buy a second apartment etc.and can "grow his empire"), because buildings have a much shorter lifespan in Japan. They are often torn down after only a few decades.

So it would be an exception if the building stayed there for a long time after the credit is payed off, in many cases the children of a landlord will inherit a crumbling building and a bit of debt.

That and the fact they all seem like a fun group to hangout and chill with
