Toshigaimonaku: To scanlate or not to scanlate… (UPDATE)

"Wrong for one's age"
(年甲斐もなく Toshigaimonaku)

Another Rumiko one-shot to bring me out of retirement? Perhaps.

But you guys know the routine. Free-to-use high quality raw (thanks Heiji-sama) plus a free-to-use translated script (thanks Patches) equals a maybe as to whether or not I scanlate.

Also, if the plot sucks harder than My Sweet Sunday, I won't touch this with a 10 foot pole. All I know about the story is that it revolves around a old man getting involved with a young woman a few decades his junior.

Pro-tip: If I do scanlate, that work would be at the bottom of my list after my college work. Remember how long Unmei no Tori took?

Dear Starks, do you have any idea if viz is bound to scanlate it?

I wouldn't count on this ever coming stateside unless Viz wanted to include it (along with Unmei no Tori, Happiness List, and other recent ones) as part of a new Rumic Theater anthology release in a few years.

That's true, good point… I'm absolutely agree with you.
I'm looking forward reading it. I hope you'll be able to do it =D

I vote for "translate" but only if you have time, this one can wait… studies are more important of course.
Thank you in advance. :D

I vote to "translate it" please. And also unmei no tori was really nice. It could have had a better ending but was so cute :D

Starks, if you did, I'd love to read it. I'm sure we all understand that studies come first, though, and we appreciate what you do.

Would you be so kind uploading the raw of Happiness list, please? :D

I do not have one. I'm sure if I searched hard enough on Japanese P2P, I might find it.

Until then, Harley Acre's script is all we have.

Hmmm, sounds like fun. Let's see how far I can get when translating this. Probably won't be good enough for a scandalation but I shall improve on my studies anyhow.
