Bro please.
You clearly didn't learn from last time.

1. Get a native English proofreader.
2. Pick a better font.
3. Center align your text.

Edit: Because you read right to left in manga and having left alignment makes it awful to read. Also, it just looks bad.
Spelling correctly is one thing, but punctuation also exists, except it doesn't here. That's why you need a native English proofreader.

1. I get an indian friend reading this and he say it was fine, but clearly some of you are not satisfied
so i may try this free proofreading service for the rest of the pages
https://writer.com/proofreading-checker/

2. wait and see if anyone second this advice

3. what's wrong with left alignment?

For proofreading there are people that do it for free and also programs that are free. You can put it into online web apps for example.
The alignment is slightly off for most people it's very unusual. For example look on the 2nd page "Hey" is almost touching the border of the bubble.
Still it's not as bad as the guy said. Thank you for translating

"I had someone who doesn't natively speak the language and clearly doesn't have anything close to native level English proofread my work, why are you saying it's bad?"
Why do people insist on translating to English instead of a language they actually speak?

It's noble that you want to practice your English, but this is probably the most ineffectual way to do so. Honestly, chatting in the comments like you're doing right now is unironically a better way to improve lol Translation isn't a beginner thing and requires a solid basis, especially when neither language is your first.

To add to @cutegyaru's comment, I would say that not even all native English speakers are capable of translating / proofreading. You aren't going to magically improve your English by translating because you fundamentally do not understand where and what you are doing wrong.

And to answer your question, it's everything. Your sentences are extremely unnatural sounding and filled with errors.
If you're going to continue doing this, the least you can do is make it a bit more palatable by putting more effort into making your translation look good. You're way less likely to get berated if it's obvious that you tried in some way. Read through what @nikgtasa sent.

just saying, it is my 3rd year in university
ive been speaking and writing in english for essay, reading lots of journal, for a long time
i also watch american tv shows, movies and youtube videos without dubs or subs
i get perfect score in toefl, and i can communicate with my western english-speaking lab partners without any difficulty
even, many of my western friends asked me if i had lived in english-predominant area for long when in our first conversation
but i always feel my english is not colloquial enough, like, anyone may notice i am a user of english as second language if a conversation lasts long enough

that is why i choose to translate comics, for this form of literature is probably the most down-to-earth of all

People on this site can be really rude to each other. In particular, people are very mean to translators who upload amateur-looking work. So I understand why you would brush off peoples' criticism. As a translator and a positive person, I feel a lot of sympathy for you.

This translation is really bad, though.

If you're learning English, you shouldn't translate things into English. Rather, you should translate English works into your native language. As a translator, it's essential that you have a strong grasp of the language you're translating into. You will not produce good work until you reach a near-fluent level. Translating into English is a bad way to learn English, because you won't be aware of all the mistakes you make. You can't learn from your own writing until you're already at a fluent level. At a minimum, you need a proofreader who has an extremely strong (native) grasp of English. Many native speakers do not have a very strong grasp of their language.

As far as editing goes: manga often uses sans-serif fonts in Japanese, but this looks bad in English. The reasons aren't worth getting into, but you should basically always use a comic book font for manga translations. Some popular options are CC Wild Words and Blambot Casual. Also, center align your text. Left-aligned text looks bad in dialogue bubbles, especially when reading right to left.

I admire your drive to translate, but I really think you should direct that effort towards something else. Right now, your output is barely better than machine translation (in fact, some machine translations are better than this). If you must translate, don't translate into English. Your command of the English language is nowhere near good enough to translate into English.

The argument of "if it's so bad why don't you translate it yourself" is wrong because the people complaining aren't the ones uploading these trash translations. If any of us were to translate it, simply by virtue of having a single native English speaker doing the work, it would probably at least come out readable.

Translations like this one are honestly just as bad as MTL. It's not that it looks amateur that's the problem, it's that it's a bad translation, it's done poorly, and the people who upload them for some reason think they're doing God's work by continually uploading these, so no matter what they won't fucking stop.

It's really funny seeing ESLs arguing for the quality of an English translation against actual native English speakers though.

I find this kind of cynicism to be deeply misguided. Most people do not learn anything from being berated, and even the few who do are still significantly sadder for it. If the choice is between hurting somebody and having to blacklist an uploader on ex, obviously you should choose the latter. At the end of the day, all they did was waste a few minutes of your time. Maybe you don't mind being antagonized, but I promise the vast majority of people do.

@guy with the username that's just numbers
It took like five minutes to write even my rambly-ass comment lol, translating a doujin competently takes hours even if you're lightning fast about it. I don't comment here much but sometimes it just feels like you wanna pull someone aside and tell them what they're doing wrong, you know? And even if they don't improve, whining about it is kinda cathartic.

First yes some people do laugh at bad things. But more importantly, someone has to "visit" this to find out how bad it is, and mizuryu kei is a very popular artist people would like to see more of so of course they check it out when they see one of his works. That still counts as a visit even if they look at a page and realize the translation is awful.

It's truly disheartening to see that despite the numerous negative comments, the gallery still receives a high number of visitors. It's a testament to the power of personal taste and how it varies from person to person. While some may not understand the appeal of "duwang-style" manga, for others it holds a special meaning, it speaks to them in a unique way. Just like some people enjoy 80's bad movies, the same way others enjoy "duwang-style" manga. It's important to remember that everyone has different preferences and interests, and it's not fair to judge them for it. However, it's also important to remember that having different taste does not mean that the quality of the content should be disregarded.

My guy, of course your gallery would get a lot of view if you're updating the gallery every page you make. Can't you at least have the decency to only update the gallery once you have fully completed your translation like any other normal guy?
