The Affair of the Jellyfish!

Alright, here's chapter 20 of Kuragehime. Even if you have already read the version from The Black Abyss, we would be pleased if you read our release as well, as there were several differences between our translation and theirs, some of them subtle, and others we consider to be negligent (as in on a couple of the pages, a few of the words were left out entirely, and others were left untranslated, such as on signs). We find this partly amusing, since they took the time to do all the sound effects, something we ourselves do not do. Anyway, we are happy to still be working on the manga and providing quality releases.

As was mentioned in a previous post, this is the point in the manga where it starts deviating from where the anime left off. The chapter title comes from the 2001 American film of the same name. You may notice that The Black Abyss translated it as "Marie Antoinette's Necklace", which is actually a direct translation from the Japanese (as that is the Japanese title of the film). As we've been doing since volume 1, some of the chapter titles (like this one) are not direct, but instead maintain the nuance of what piece of media is being referenced. We believe this to make more sense than a direct translation, specifically in the case of well-known media.
