    If you can't even be bothered to explain why it is a good novel then why should a translator bother to pick it up?

    OIANAITWOWZ << Think about how you make acronyms. You don't include the irrelevant words like I/am/in etc.

    Try something like NAWOZ instead.

    rules about acronyms:
    If you can't say the number of letters without looking it isn't a good one
    if you can't pronouce without looking the same

    for this case go by abreviation :"not attacked (...) by zombies" its doubtfull if there is another which such abbreviation fits

    The acronym is long enough to have it's own abrevation

    Read quite a bit of this. MC is absolutely scummy but also funny to follow.
    Zombie apocolypse breaks out and he is ignored by the zombies. He trains up one and uses it xxx. He later finds a teenager and trades her xxx for food and some protection. things happen and zombies start to become a bit smarter and new folks are met.

    Interesting to follow, more info on animesuki.

    To oversimplify things? It's either you are a work slave or a freeman
    Salary man=This character have a job with stable income
    Jobless=Teenagers,Ronins,fresh graduates, freelancers, etc
