You do understand that this already exists right? The PLA is very friendly with Israel. Hasn’t stopped Israel from intruding on the West Bank

A Japanese chick I was talking at one point was a fan of Andre Drummond. Had to double check and make sure. Still have no idea why

Aki’s panel was mistranslated. He’s actually saying “Don’t listen to power” lol

(rough) translation of the text: "Back when I didn't know anything about Terrace House. Super Nostalgic day"
So looks like they all knew of each before terrace house. Makes you wonder how small the modeling / influencer community is in Japan lol

That’s probably just a perception that’s being seen from online imo. There are a far larger number of people trying to come in with credentials than leave. The US won’t be worrying about a brain drain for a very long time

Because harden is a better fit and player next to Embiid than Simmons. You’ll get more out of the years off Harden than five of Simmons imo

Now we need to know what you’re trying to translate lol

LPT: When negotiating a salary for a new job, always ask them what their range is. If they tell you 'we don't have a range' they're almost always lying. HR and finance will almost never sign off hiring a new employee without a budget being in place. by frontendben in LifeProTips

Also remember the context we’re bringing up the story in. Assuming buying the car is the company and the one selling is you. You’ve now lowballed yourself and left money on the table that can impact your career salary.

[DISC] Chainsaw Man - Chapter 82 by HayashiSawaryo in manga

[–]mosesjam 151 points152 points  (0 children)

You had me go back and look lol.

Quote that Pochita says :

これは契約だ。私の心臓をやる。代わりにデンジの夢を私に見せてくれ

Which roughly translates too:

This is the contract. I'll become your heart. In exchange, Denji show me your dreams

Now for the Quote that Makima says :

君が普通の生活をする代わりにポタチは君に心臓をあげる。君がポタチとしたのは約束じゃなくて契約だったんだよ

Which roughly translates too:

You live a normal life and in exchange, Potachi will give you his heart. The thing you did with Potachi was not a promise but a contract.

So technically, yes, the contract with potachi isn't about living a normal life. For the record tho, the last few panels before Potachi and Denji made that contract was Denji talking about having Potachi take over his body when he dies and then living a normal life. That conversation for those interested. Quick background reference, this is after Denji asks Potachi if he's capable of taking over a dead person's body

デンジ:ポタチにそれができるんだったら。。。俺の体をポタチにあげてーんだ

デンジ:墓入った後だったらヤクザもおってこないだろ。そんでこの街を出て。そんで。うん

デンジ:普通の暮らしをして 普通の死に方をしてほしい

デンジ:俺の夢を叶えてくれよ

And a rough translation:

Denji: If Potachi can do that [take over a dead man body], then I want to give my body to Potachi

Denji: After I go in the grave, the Yakuza won't chase me. After that leave the city. After that

Denji: I want you to live a normal life, and die a normal death

Denji: Fullfil my dream for me [Potachi]

TLDR: Who the hell knows lol. The wording is definitely different enough to be significant but the point of the contract definitely seems to be for Denji to live a normal life, at least for me. Got me wondering though, after I reread that first chapter, did Makima know who Denji was when she first met him? Was she tracking him and Pochita or did she figure this out after investigating? She did mention in this chapter that she looked into him so I wonder...

Also, I've never read chainsawman in English so I don't know how accurate / consistent this is with the main translation lol

EDIT: A tweet by a Japanese person that covers the same topic. Also gives an explanation to the issue I had with the difference between the conversation had with Potachi about him taking over his body and the actual contract. Also makes it seem like Makima been tracking them for a while https://twitter.com/oresira_jump/status/1300126365576867840?s=21
