My Consort Is Alpha - Chapter 1: Second Crossing​

The above link will lead to the Google Docs Document.

Let's get one thing straight, I haven't read the entire thing, just a few early chapters. I am pretty sure that the translation should be quite accurate but I don't guarantee anything. It might just be 100% incorrect around the last part but that is how I found it when I read it. If you think that the translation is wrong, do let me know. Also, do leave comments on the chapter to let me know if you think I can improve the sentences, grammar, or anything. I enabled the suggestions so you can comment and suggest.

Also, do let me know if you want me to continue translating. I will release another chapter in 24 hours so you have some more information to work with.

 

So this is futanari, not yuri. The thread title might need to clarify that to avoid confusion.

@AhmadShahzad : do you have a TL blog? It would be nice to make a proper NU page for this series and announce chapter 1 release.

 

She's a girl though. Female futa.

 

Well, isn't that 99% of all futanari? Futanari is strongly considered separated from yuri, even if related. You'll get banned if you post futa on /u/ of 4chan, you aren't allowed to tag 'yuri' on futa images on Danbooru/Gelbooru, etc.

After all, a lot of people get angry when you shove a character with a penis in their face when they're searching for yuri. They don't want to read BxG or BL because there are penises in the first place.

So it's courteous to tag yuri and futanari properly. Let the readers search for what they want instead of polluting their search results. I myself will stop reading yuri forever if I keep seeing futa in my search, even though I do read futa occasionally.

 

Yeah but there are also male "futas" too.
As for the yuri, since I consider usual futas to be women, so I think that this is like any regular yuri. You can see strap-on action even in lesbian porn, it's not that much different.
You can just add futa or hermaphrodite in tags. Not sure whichever is a bigger tag on here though.

 

Yuri futa is tagged with both yuri and futa here on NU, though. So long as this work gets tagged appropriately, I doubt people will be upset?

 

My point is, the existence of "male futa" has nothing to do with the separation of futa and yuri. The majority of yuri fans do not want the yuri girls to have a penis. Can't you respect their wish to search for the exact content they want? How do you feel if the yuri tag is polluted with girls having lesbian sex to turn guys on before ending up with guys or have the guys join them?

Strap-on and other toys are not flesh penis. They don't let the wearer "feel" the partner, and they don't jizz. When I search for futa content for my own enjoyment, I do NOT want strap-on to appear because that defeats the purpose. Similarly, somebody searching for strap-on yuri do not want to see real penis. You're coming dangerously close to saying lesbians who use strap-ons are secretly hetero thirsty for penis, which is insulting.

The romantic feelings is of lesbian nature, since they both identify as women, but their sex is NOT lesbian sex. You'll likely get a death threat if you tag "lesbian sex" to a video or fiction of a pre-op transwoman dicking a girl.

 

Yes, as long as the futa tag is there, which this thread doesn't have.

 

Yeah pretty much, they could always filter it too after all. Though as long as people appropriately tag it and mention that a novel is futa or yuri or both, there shouldn't be a problem. There are people who aren't fond of futa being consequently tagged with yuri regardless whether it is of a romantic nature or a sexual one.

 

This.

The problem with tagging a futa story with both "futa" and "yuri" is that there will be no way to differentiate it from a story that has a pure yuri couple and a futa couple. Those who dislike futa might still want to read that kind of story just for the yuri couple, yet they'll pass on it due to misunderstanding the tags.

 

Some may feel that way, and some communities may be so toxic, but that doesn't represent everyone. Yuri futa is included in the Yuri Garden and I've never had anyone throw a hissy fit.

Fair enough.

If the main couple isn't also yuri, it shouldn't have a yuri tag, but the "shoujo-ai subplot" tag. Incorrectly tagging things causes problems for everyone, of course, but if a novel has both a futa tag and a yuri tag, there's usually no ambiguity.
But where there is ambiguity... That's a fact of life here of NU - for all novels, not just yuri. It's why reviews are crucial.

 

Well, now you've seen me being the first one raising the issue. I think the lack of hissy fit in Yuri Garden is most likely due to the small number of both futa novels and small amount of readers, not because it's an okay practice.

I raised the point in this thread precisely because I was mislead by OP into thinking this is yuri, yet chapter 1 made it clear this is futa. It was quite irritating.

Incorrect tagging certainly a pain for everyone, but isn't that all the more reason to do as much as we can, to improve quality of life as much as possible? Not to mention it doesn't necessary have to be mistagging. Imagine a harem novel where the femMC end up marrying 5 love interests: 4 girls 1 futa. I think both the yuri and futa tags are appropriate there. How about a novel with a pair of friends as dual protagonists, 1 girl 1 futa, and each has their own romance with a girl? Same thing.

I think it might be time to rethink our tagging practice. VNDB (visual novel database) recently had started scraping the whole "yuri yaoi shoujo-ai shounen-ai" altogether and go with F/F, M/M, Futa/F, Futa/M, Futa/Futa, etc. Wonderful clarity will benefit everyone IMO.

 

Melina did not "mislead" you, but likely wasn't aware of the fact herself. We were all caught off-guard. Now we know, and the extra tag can go on accordingly if an NU page is made for it.

Tags exist so that we can click a button and find all novels of a certain type, not necessarily to tell us the context behind those tags, anyway. Just look at the arguments over the "rape" tag. People want that split into a thousand different things because some of them are okay with non-love interests being raped, but don't want to read the protagonist's harem suffering the fate. But things like that can only be clarified by information gleamed from reviews and the description. Messing with the tags is not the way forward.

The collapse of the "yuri" and "shoujo ai" tags has been proposed before and rejected.

Also, this argument is getting too far from the topic of this novel itself. It's best we either stop here or move it elsewhere. I'm for stopping.

 

I have no idea what’s futa.
Neither do I know it’s was Futa
I did click on yuri tags in Jjwxc to find good yuri novel.
Forget it. This novel is not bad as you think just because it futa.
It’s not r18 or smut, neither was harem. I Read this novel in raw. This is 1v1 my favorite novel. Mc is Op and had mystery body like she is powerful, she can’t die. Female lead is lost princess, she is so shy and adorable, like lumina, she suffered lots, being abuse by her own mother just because she was girl, being betray by her own sister, thrown in enemy country. She was save by mc in few chapter. Their friendship and relationship started progressive.
Mc was straight at first, She doesn’t like female. After meeting female lead. She become possessive or overprotective over her and get jealousy when female lead give attention to their child.
This female lead is one of my fav character, I wanted grab her with mc.

 

Futa means a person who has both female and male parts (have breasts and vagina AND penis).

Futa does not equate to "bad". It simply means it's not yuri. Many people absolutely don't want to read about fluffy romance between a girl and a futa/intersex/transgender person. You could at least help them by giving a futa tag so they know to avoid.

The translator for chapter 1 confirmed MC is futa, so yeah.

 

Bakaupdates, VNDB and all the Booru imageboards had developed a meticulous tag system to address that concern of yours. Tags exist to serve the users, so we have to be clever about it and be aware of all the needs.

The "raped MC", "raped love interest", "yuri rape", "het rape", etc. can all exist under the umbrella "rape" tag. It serve 3 different groups:
- People who merely read tags to assess the content can know exactly what this is about.
- People with a rape fetish typically only wants to read novels where the MC or the love interest rape each other, so they can fine tune their search with the specific tag.
- People who want to avoid all rape can blacklist only the Rape tag.

TL;DR: giving up is always the wrong answer. NU is still in its infancy so it's all the easier to develope a smart tagging system through discussion; it'd be more pain in the neck once it gets huge like other databases. I am a moderator on several sites like that so I know what a disaster it could be if you get lazy now. A lackluster tagging practice will render a site unusable (e.g. imagine trying to wade through 300k results just to find 100 guro yuri posts), so youl'll be forced to start a tag overhaul on a massive amount of posts.

 

I had been quite sick for the last few days and was offline, so apologies for the late reply. I do have a translation site where I am posting other works but I will be abandoning it soon in favor of a new site that has been under work for quite some time. That's the reason I didn't make an official NU page yet. The new site should be ready in around a week, you can expect an official NU page at that time. I will post chapter 2 and 3 here today.

 

Any update on this?

 

Do you know how to change the thread title when you are the creator ? Because i don't. The edit button only allow to change the tags. Better chance to ask a staff to change it.

Edit: found how to change it. My bad.

 

I’m on chapter 24 right now using mtl. So Li Jun became a man after reincarnating? He/She plans to live as a woman but does it still count as Yuri? Or am I misunderstanding something here
