Thought i would start this so it was ready for the first translation

[Ivy]

Impatient, aren't we?
I guess The Company will be several chapters behind the original ones to better understand and translate the story. But I hope it's not 10-15 chapters behind or something like that...
And by the way, long time no post around here. Hello to both new and old members!

Is this Beter

[Mizura]

Whoo-hoo! Trailer out! Wow, it's the first time I realize that the first "Do you think [blabla] death" comment may be Asha responding to Ran. Since this sentence and the one after Gandharva's panel were so similar, I thought both sentences referred to Gandharva. D:

So anyway, Leez in a pretty dress!

You know, the "Do not forget, one day, not all of us will be left at your side" is a bit ironic considering that Leez supposedly ends up outright all alone. So, "not all of us" -> "nobody", though I suppose God Kubera is still there. Though she seemed like she wanted him gone.

[Shintai]

About the part when someone says:
It is my victory, Kubera.

Can that be Leez saying it to Kubera having regained his name? The text is green, which often referred to Leez in season 1.

[Signia]

Isn't it blue green? I was thinking it was Kali saying it. @_@ Which scared me a bit.

In the raw, the word ASHA at the start is in English. I was wondering if perhaps Currygom was referring to the actual meaning of the word Asha rather than the character. According to Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asha), Asha means 'truth' - maybe in season 2 a lot of the characters will start finding out the things that the other characters are hiding; the fact that Yuta is a Sura, the fact that Brillith summoned a God, whether or not Shakuntela is dead and how Asha plans to get revenge.

Well...

Spoiler

In the first arc of the second season, it is revealed to the people of Atera that Agni was summoned by Brilith.

So yeah, I think we'll know other secrets and things will start to get clearer.
By the way, the light in the last pannel seemed to be a portal to another dimension, like the one Kubera created for Sagara. The two figures look like Asha and Leez with Kali's cape. So maybe Leez will get so strong that she'll be able to hop between realms.

This is my thought as well. Though the 'victory' part is confused - what was won, exactly? I'd like to believe it's Leez who has defeated the fate Kubera's previous insights showed us - her as a lonely and bitter woman fighting for her life.

[DoAru]

Someone analyzed the color of that text, the victory thing, and its almost the exact same color as.....

Spoiler

....yuta's new eyes in later chapters, kali's eye color.;;;

(Raws spoiler)

[Mizura]

Oooh! That'd be awesome!

Spoiler

If that's true, then it'd confirm that Kali is involved, and would explain why Leez got her hands on two of Kali's items. Basically it's possible that neither Visnu nor Kali can interfere directly anymore, so Kali devised Leez as her pawn.

God Kubera may be on Visnu's side. And the "opponent who already knows the outcome of the battle" is Kali. Visnu may have left God Kubera with minimal instructions, which is why God Kubera is unsure and said "I don't know, I'm not Visnu." Basically God Kubera doesn't even know what Visnu really expects to happen, and is confused as to why Visnu told him to leave Kali's pawn alone.

Well, that's just speculation. But it'd be awesome if Kali is involved. Yuta would be another wild card: is he Kali's pawn, or did Visnu and co., successfully "convert" him?

I was thinking about this for some time but...is there some kind of problem with the translation? I'm worried, for real! Before we used to have 2 chapters per week and now we have 1ch for 2 weeks...

[Mizura]

Yeah, it's been like this for a few weeks now. It may have to do with the scanlators going back to school. Although the scanlators somehow managed things last year, this year they could be much more busy with the new term. It's quite understandable.

I do wish they'd tell us something though, even just an obvious one-liner saying "We're busy with real life and it will probably stay this way." (I mean, it Seems obvious, but what do we know? Maybe one of the scanlators got sick). It's much easier to be patient when you're told what's going on, but since we have no idea what's going on, I guess some of us are feeling a bit lost.

[Boredoom]

^agreed. I've been so anxious everyday checking is there a new Kubera? No.
Repeat process day after day after day D:

some news would be awsome, but sadly I doubt it. Haven't rlly seen any Company member in kubera forum since.... ...... ...yea...(except Kareia ofc you're a great support! any news?...please

[narcissu]

My, my, I see three uploads from one week ago, which seems impressive enough. Especially considering the afterward, which is probably much longer than a normal chapter; not to mention image-editing and all that.

I say patience is the key here, no?

... Although honestly, the real reason why I'm not complaining is because I just directly read the raws, but that's beside the point. ;;

[Boredoom]

Ooh right completley forgot those *facebed* sorry.

sorry for ^ post.

And forgot there were several parts, only thought of the prolouge.

Keep up the god work!! (and patience isnt or has never been my strong side D;)

Since it's only fair to you all to address this, yes, the Kubera team has been busy as of late. School has started up again for most of us, and real life has been busy for others. We've had to scramble to find last minute temporary substitutes for a couple of our team members, which has also slowed us down a bit, unfortunately.

Good news for you guys, though--we've decided to return to our previous two-chapter-per-week release schedule starting next week, since it seems we're more focused and proactive when under time restraints.

[Mizura]

I was actually surprised by how fast the afterword came out. I was expecting THAT to take twice the time needed than a normal chapter, instead the afterword came out fast and the prologue came out slow. xD

Hey, it's Fembot! Thank you so much for the clarification! We do understand if you were just busy, we were just worried if something more serious happened. Wow, hearing that the two-chapters-per week schedule will return is Great news! Since Season 2 is just starting, this means you'll catch up soon then we'll be back at 1 chapter per week. xD But that also means that it will be easier on you once you catch up, so I'm glad for you!

Speaking of things... YAY! A release! Ah-hah, Asha didn't even look at Ran after she sent him flying, what a dangerous person she is. Magical "accident" indeed. And uh, they got USED to it? O_o;; Eh, poor Leez. being neglected by the way. xD I wonder what ranking she could get if she became a magician? She'll have to pass a quest to graduate though, there's no way she'd graduate through written exams. Does "Killing a few superior Sura" and maybe "Saving the world" (or whatever her ultimate task will be) count as a suitable quest for magical exam graduation? "Killing a God" will probably be a no-no though, that'd get her labeled as a heretic. O_o;;

Whooooot, shirtless Gandharva. xD

Say, now that Ran completed the quest, that means he's graduated and will probably be assigned a magic ranking. I wonder how high his ranking will be?

Spoiler

Asha has the highest ever score recorded in Rindhallow, and Ran has the highest ever score recorded in Mistyshore -which I think most of us have guessed even before the raws came out.- So, their scores are probably non-comparable, just like they couldn't compare Asha's score with the score of the #1 AA, since that person took the exam in Eloth.

But, even if the scores aren't comparable, there are still rankings. If Ran eventually gets assigned an AA rank, will it be above Asha's, or will he be the first AA to have a rank below an "A+"? (even if it's an A++)
