    Japanese speaker here, I'd like to pick up some novel to translate. If you have any requests, please let me know!

    I have some conditions tho:
    -The novel has to be BL (yaoi)!
    -Modern of futuristic or other - just please no historical settings (I don't enjoy them much >.< sorry)!
    -You'll really just have to send me the novel. ;w; Either the link online, or contact me to give you my email so you can send me the file. I am unable to buy a novel online by myself (if I was, believe me, I'd choose one myself to translate ;w; ).

    Any genre is fine, however, I'm a big fan of sci-fi military romance, so if you have anything like that, I'll be more than happy to pick it up!

    I can't really speak Chinese, but I've studied it a little in the past and I have translated some novel chapters in Chinese. If you know of any sci-fi military Chinese BL novel that you want translated, I would be willing to try translating it!

    Note:
    -If it's in Japanese, any genre is fine (as long as it contains BL)
    -If it's Chinese, then only sci-fi or military (or both) BLs!

    Chinese Sci-fi/Interstellar:

    《做渣男真好,就是死得早[星際]》
    MC was a failed product of human experiment and he was going to die in 3 months. After he was sent out from the laboratory he accidentally saved ML who was in coma from an explosion. Apparently ML worked as researcher apprentice to investigate the illegal human experiment so he was suspicious of MC. (MC's mom was one of the main researcher).

    《变成人鱼被养了》
    MC was reincarnated as a rare solid-colored mermaid (tail, eyes, and hair color are the same). He was auctioned and bought by the ML. Since mermaid can heal mental riot, they can also detect impurities from human's mental power, that's why most mermaid didn't like ML because his mental power was full of impurities. MC was the only mermaid who wasn't afraid of him. Unknowingly, MC accepted ancestral inheritance and became the mermaid king.

    《星际最强纹章师》
    MC passed away after his battle with evil sect in cultivation world. Somehow, he transmigrated into interstellar era. MC later became famous as genius magical arms calligrapher.

    Japanese BL:

    悪役令嬢の子
    MC reincarnated as the son of a villain daughter after the game over.

    ゲームの世界に転生した俺が○○になるまで
    MC reincarnated in a mountain village, he just realized he was in a game world after he turned 18. During the war with neighboring country, he found out that there was many reincarnators with high ability in that world.

    Suggesting Utsukushii Kare, I'm so excited for the live action and seeing it adapted so I want more people to know about it https://forum.novelupdates.com/threads/modern-bl-utsukushii-kare.135956/
    -the first half of the novel is set in high school, second half takes place in the university (sort of) but there's a tiny bit of entertainment industry action
    -R18 scenes are present
    -pitiful loyal dog x proud tsundere ice king
    -it has live action adaptation coming next mnth https://twitter.com/utsukare_mbs/status/1447841279757324290?s=20

    I bought only the first novel for now but I'm planning to get the rest next week. So if you are interested please let me know:blobok:

    Thank you both for replying!

    I'm up for this one! :)

    However, as I am kinda new on this site, I just found out that I should either set up my own website or join one of the translations groups! Just give me few days, please, and I'll contact you. I'll try to get back to you asap, before someone else picks up this novel :)

    Thank you so much for picking it up:blob_pompom: If I'm not mistaken in order to make a page for the novel you must upload at least 1 chapter of it too? Please take your time! I'm here every day. Meanwhile I'll figure out how to convert the novel file without losing the illustrations:blobcat_hyper:
    You can also leave a message in this https://forum.novelupdates.com/threads/modern-bl-utsukushii-kare.135956/ thread so people would know you picked it up

    You don't need to set up a website - setting up a blog is enough (many translation groups are exclusively on tumblr, livejournal etc.).

    Hey guys! Since I'm doing this just for fun and in my free time, I decided against joining any groups. I've seen one person post translations on Wattpad (for novel "Thrive in Catastrophe"), so since I'm having some difficulties with setting up my own website, I just made a profile there:
    https://www.wattpad.com/user/Straylations

    Obviously there are no translated chapters yet there, but I hope this works well! ^o^

    Edit: I actually managed to set up the website...
    https://straylations.wordpress.com

    Wattpad disables copying option to protect the content, while wordpress doesn't (unless you get the premium, which I don't plan on doing - apologies! I'll be translating this just for fun!). So, I don't know, maybe posting it on Wattpad would be better?
    Let me know what you think! As I said, I'm still quite new to this, I'd appreciate some opinion/advice!

    It's a mirage. You can easily copy from Wattpad with a few more clicks.

    What do you think about googledocs? I think it's possible to turn off the download and copy options

    Copying from "protected" (lol :blobrofl:) google docs is even quicker than from Wattpad. :blobowoevil_horns:
