Tetsunaki no Kirinji Kabukichou Seiatsu Hen Marathon 5

Lion's Ridge Summer Mega Update

Sorry, I've been busy these last days completing my visa application. That said, I finally submitted my application successfully, after some side-adventures of "Officially Licensed Translator mistranslated your documents even though you paid 50€ for 5 pages" and "You can only visit the embassy once a week - Ultra Rule", I finally managed it, thanks to all the donators who helped me achieve this. So that's the good news, visa is applied for! In two months it should be ready and I should be able to leave this swamp of a country once and for all. Now for the bad news.

Once I reported to my employer that the application was submitted I got this:

"When the Employee Card will be submitted, there will be costs on travelling to Brno and also costs for the Employee Card which you will pick up here at the foreign police in Brno. The amount is 2.500 CZK.
Furthermore costs for the first 1.5 month of living in Brno as the first salary will be in paid out on the 15th of the following month.

Now you have at least two months to safe money for these costs, so I am sure, you will manage it."

So, wow, now that I got the job, applied for my visa, I still have costs. By my calculations it's: 2.500 CZK= 100€ for the card, 150€ for a trip to Brno, costs for living in Brno for a month and a half= ~250€, life expenses until I can finally start working= ~100€.

I love how she pretends like I don't live in a 3rd world country with no social security and a ~60% unemployment rate, so like I can save something.

I feel bad for this, but I can only depend on people following our blog and our releases to help me out, since I have no family or friends. We will put a "Rinshan Final Survival Foundation" bar on our blog with the goal of 550€. My life is in your hands.

Since I want to feel like I earned the money, I'm happy to announce that our group is picking up its THIRD SERIES soon, look forward to it!!

I will spend all my energy and time working on these beautiful manga in hope that I will earn an opportunity to leave this messed-up country once and for all and finally go back to civilization. Thanks everyone for reading, hope you enjoy our work, we're doing our best!

Volume 3 complete!!! Volume 4 is coming out next month, so Kirinji will continue in ~25 days. During that time I'll translate another manga, since I'm unemployed and don't have anything better to do anyway, so look forward to that!


We will do a big Kirinji fixing, where we will fix all the typos and mistakes from chapter 1 to 72 and reupload the chapters. I will also write my long due analysis for volumes 1-3 now that we have caught up with all the available volumes. It will be done in a few days, I need a break, this is the biggest marathon we did yet, 10 chapters in a row. See you soon, thanks for reading.

Our group was on The Mahjong Meetup, you can watch it here.

  2. Thanks for the chaps~

    On Tenhou, both the name of the site and the rank are written with "天鳳" instead of "天和" so the translation is "heavenly phoenix". You can fix that when you fix the folder name~
