That would be no. Rules are same across BT. Unless you're referring to illustrations.

I'm an American, I've been living in Japan a while but I still don't know how hard it is to lift 40 kilos. (Four sacks of rice, on the other hand, is very easy to picture in my mind.)

Just keeping it educational for everyone.

You may just consider leaving the footnotes and notations, and reducing them from "Americans click here #" to just the number. Using an large sentence fragment like that is intrusive and jarring to read, whereas a simple superscript number-link is much more professional.

Alternatively do the parenthetical thing, and have something like "40 kilos (90 pounds)", though I think the footnote links have more class.

Regardless nice work so far. Leave it to Japan to make even the most horrible monsters of my childhood seem cute and moe. I may never think of a Shoggoth or even "the Blob" movies the same way again.

The story has so much development for the author to choose from. I do hope the author write more books for the series. Many thanks to the translator. By the way am I the only one that read Tekeli-li-teke-teke-li-lu-tekeli-teke-li-la-lu-la-tekeli-teke-tekeli-li-lu-la-li-tekeli-li fully when it in the text :3

I expected to have more time to work on this in August than I actually did... hopefully I can continue translation though.

I don't suppose you're still working on this project are you? I think its a really interesting series and would love to see more translated.

Also as a side note I noticed that on BT its not listed in the teaser or light novels tab, but its under light novels in the BT app (which is how I found it)

Nice observation about it not being in teasers on the website. It looks like it was a typo with the category tag, and it should be fixed now (appearing in the Teasers page linked from the sidebar). [Aside: I also confirmed that none of the other series in that batch of recategorization had similar problems]

The translator who was working on it hasn't been around for nearly a year. So there likely won't be any updates until they either appear again, or someone else takes an interest in it.
