Nusantara Droid War

I dunno if it's because I'm not used to seeing Indonesia be represented in anime/manga or something, but as an Indonesian I cringed while reading this. Especially the bishie with the super traditional Indonesian name...It just doesn't match.

culture-shock plays important role on this part... since you already knew the meaning of some name and when you unconsciously comparing names between manga and/or manhwa and/or manhua with your native names, it'll produce a strange incongruity... happen to read some localized japanese manga where they arbitrarily change the name into like 'Jake', 'Luke', 'Mary', 'christie'... i'm not a native white, but almost all the white readers and non-white readers are totally disturbed by it and hell broke loose on the comment section... lol...

It's mostly because they localize nothing but the names, isn't it? Like Trauma Center where they sloppily rename people while all the details remain Japanese.

I'm not really big of the starting premise, will the fleshing out of the core details of this setting make it more appealing (so I can endure the beginning?)

Spoiler

Actually, this matter was brought into question on chapter 8 and it seems there were further dig at it.

so I don't expect the author would go in-depth with mechanics of this comic, but it would be interesting if they do. For example, is the droid sentient being? Do they act in character of their original lore, can resist order or pursue other course of action? Well don't expect too much though, since they made it game-like in nature

The story, execution and idea is like watching Pokemons fused with later series of Yugioh (or other crappy card-game anime) with tons of jokes from the web. But those mythology bits are nice.

i feel the same dude, it's just doesn't work with English.......

I find this very weird because the names is too traditional.......

So.. I read the raw...

Lol it feels so... Yugioh (ZeXaL)

Ck, typical fangirls, so loyal they are..

That was a good fight start.

Basically it's the same as the first time you read Manhua or Manhwa if you originally only read Japanese Manga mmm...

Interesting. It reminds me of Angelic Layer by Clamp.

The gag is good. I would like to see the battle scene and the depth of the story before score it

let's see if this worth a while, next chapter please?

Always cool to read something from an unknown culture. The fresh cultural references will be interesting.

this is cool, can't wait for next chapter ....

havent read it yet but judging from the cover i guess there will be some hero from native folklore like arjuna (?), gatot kaca(?), si buta dari goa hantu(?), wiro sableng 212(?), si pitung(?) etc etc... probably some villain and evildoers like wewe gombel(?), kolor ijo(?), mak lampir(?), nyi roro kidul(?), etc etc...

man... if what i mentioned above were true then i think this will be going from absurd to avant garde...

lol...

i prefer aura kasih as my droid though

Interesting, but I would suggest the addition of an English proofreader to your team.  There are a lot of small grammatical mistakes in the translation. It's understandable as-is, but each mistake is like stumbling over a rock in your path - the flow is momentarily halted. The English proofreader would not need any Indonesian language experience to be able to contribute to your work.

We have been considering this actually, just haven't found the person that want to do the job. And is content with our 'schedule'.

please make "Siji,Loro,Telu" not One two three

Bruh, you serious? No..
