Picked up by Kittenbitten of Blob Translations https://www.novelupdates.com/series/demon-king-retry/ Name: Demon King, Retry! Raw Link: https://ncode.syosetu.com/n6789do/ NU Link: none Why It Should Get Picked Up: I haven't actually read it yet... Just stumbled on the manga adaption (untranslated) and looked interesting/funny enough. MC doesn't look like a normal isekai MC so that's a plus, but I haven't read it yet so I can't speak for the story. I'll probably check it out later tho. You can check out the (untranslated) manga here: http://futabasha.pluginfree.com/weblish/futabawebact/Maousama_001/index.shtml?rep=1 Honestly tho, the loli is really cute and the guy's design is interesting, and there's a considerable amount of chapters out already, so if someone wants to give it a shot... Description: (I gave a shot at translating the summary, but I haven't read it so idk if it's accurate or not.) A working adult you could find anywhere, Oono Akira was sent to another world while logged in as the character called「Maou」in a game he self-administrated. He started a journey with the disabled legged girl he met there, but the surroundings couldn’t leave the overwhelming powerful 「Maou」to his own devices. Aiming to subjugate the Demon King, the country and holy woman’s party wreak havoc wherever they go. His appearance is a Demon King, but inside is an ordinary person; a misunderstanding type fantasy!

Worthless harem again. No thanks. It's like jp novelists are physically incapable of writing literally anything else. Or is the problem us? Is it that we're all worthless so TL's simply pick the most generic novels to translate?
Generic stuff is more acceptable to more people and heaven knows translators need more people for the donations to keep them afloat
And CN doesn’t have any harems and senseless ways to get girls. I mean its not like they just met each other and then they start making babies in the next few chapters, no (Sarcasm by the way). And its not like almost all Xianxia CN all sound the same at this point, no~o (even more sarcasm). If you don’t like it, don’t read it. Thats all there is to it.
better ask onii-san about this!!! well unless nii-san is dealing with snakes then it will be all okey!!!
I'll buy the LNs. Let see if I can do something about it... (Maybe a teaser, I can't handle more work)
Skimmed through the first several volumes. It's pretty fun. There are a lot of references. I didn't get some of them. There are also some puns here and there that might be on the difficult side to convey in English. Would recommend for a more experienced translator or someone that has help.
