>>1604 seems to be from the same event - The flowers are there both in the comic and the other photo, and that sign is in the comic (and I translated it).

Is that Kanehira on the left in >>1605, maybe?

>>1611 I'm willing to bet that's Kanehira on the left in >>1605, yes - and the guy in the checkered shirt is probably the guy talking to Mori in >>1588.

I'm sure several of the readers wondered why "Chin Kasuo-kun" is a demonstration of Kanehira's "horrible taste in picking names".

The answer is that it's almost homonymous with a very rude word: "chinkasu", or "dirt accreted under the male foreskin" (i.e. smegma, but with an additional sense of almost deliberate uncleanliness).

It was not explained in the manga, because Kanehira doesn't explain it. I personally think it deserved a footnote, but the again...

Wai wai wai, I suspect I was the first to figure this one out!

http://www.flyingmachines.org/hens.html

"William Samuel Henson was an engineer and inventor who was familiar with the aeronautical work of George Cayley. Discussions with his associate John Stringfellow led to his design for a large passenger-carrying steam-powered monoplane, with a wing span of 150 feet, named "ARIEL - The Henson Aerial Steam Carriage," for which he received a patent in 1843."

"The Aerial Steam Carriage never took to the air, but it nonetheless registered firmly in the minds and imaginations of multitudes of people to became one of the strongest archetypal images of early aeronautics."

It is a lot more appropriate than the manga's WW1 era biplane.
>> No.1613  
Well, to be fair, when Mori wrote that bit, she hadn't yet "levelled up" and been "equipped" with her own personal researcher. The anime crew did a much more thorough job of researching the details. Hell, that's what they blew all the money on, and why there's no present appearance of hope for a second season.

You win some, you lose some.

Why are William's and Eleanor's eyes yellow? They should be green and blue. Otherwise, it would have been a great kawaii version of the main characters.

You guys are so awesome. It makes me fear that a commercial translation could never match this kind of quality and attention to detail.

Well, Emma Fan, I've always been far less than second fiddle on the manga translations. I came on board late in the game, for the anime translations - the manga has always been whispers' purlieu.

As for what I do... I'm an historian. Currently, I'm dealing with a seriously messed-up private life that is consuming my time and the lining of my stomach walls in equal measure.

I know.

Oh, well, I suppose I ought to go off and devote myself to the pursuit of eligible women as a leisure activity.

Actually, that sounds nice - and I'm certainly very much in the process of becoming eligible, myself. Any bits of crumpet... *ahem* I mean, sweet ladies.... out there that might be interested?
