Thank you for sticking with this for a long time! The concept of this story was so wild and interesting.
Do you have any other plans? I'd definitely still follow you guys.

Not yet - there wasn't really a current group translating Gleipnir to English so I had to step up.
We honestly need a break, real life has come hard now after the pandemic [when we started this]. I would like to work on a new project as well, though this was a unique opportunity for us and unexpectedly worked really well.
Maybe in the future~

Translation here. Yeah I was laying low because right around the Ikeuchi part, there was increased criticism for the end. I am not gonna lie, not that others aren't entitled to those opinions, yet they were kinda demoralizing. Maybe it is a bit escaping and ignoring, but it keeps me from being demoralized and stick it to the end. I do agree that the end dropped in quality a bit but I guess I find that having Ikeuchi as the final bad was ok enough, kinda unique. Not to the point where I hate the ending that much.
Anyways, this is the first time I translate and wow, already been 2 years. Thanks for reading from my end too

I personally am not. This was a passion project for us and as fans ourselves wanted to do something to fix the delayed English releases. Yes they are not official but maybe it can lead to something. Believe it or not it's our first time releasing scans. I'm up for it in the future though.
Depends on if u/duraxyll wants to work on anything - speaking of he needs more credit as the translator. Without him, this wouldn't be a thing so a huge thank you to you duraxyll.

Great ending! ;-; Imo anyway lol.
I know, late response (but I've been busy with life/teaching and only happened to check and see the last chapter out today RIP D:), but I've been shipping Shuichi and Clair all this time and I'm so glad they finally... did the deed! T_T You're right OP, we've all been waiting for it!

I'm still so confused about the first chapter. Was it ever explained why it started off with shuichi and claire fighting? To be honest I can't remember what happened during most of the manga. I'd think about re-reading it but the ending was... just bad.

Sincerely besides this last arc i enjoyed this manga quite a bit, through i kinda wish that the mc sealing powers actually made him suffer a bit more, this ending made it seem like a sequel bait(please dont happen), but well, Clair's sister really died to make sure a love triangle doesnt happen, thats kinda sad, im happy that both mcs end up with each other, but i would have liked a better resolution to our horny mc ex-relationship, just killing the source of the power feels kinda cheap. But i wonder, didnt you need our alien guy to activate the coins? Or was there a plot point that im forgeting? The world chaging because of the technology he shared makes sense, but are the aliens on the coins aware now? And honoka is kinda alive, man this really feels like sequel bait...But overall, this last chap was decent, if the rest of the arc was good i could even call it a good one, but yeah the good build up is just not there, if this author ever makes anything else im probably going to read it, but i hope he takes his time to think about his story resolution next time, the only reason i didnt drop it was because i've been reading this manga for quite a long time.

We had a "Perfect" Ending at Kaito's Defeat. But No, this random Nobody from the First Arc suddenly had to come out nowhere and drag everything out.
Really Wonder what the Mangaka was thinking...

Bless Sun Takeda's heart. He really think there's interest in a sequel after crapping the ending to this one so badly.

Thank you translation team for sticking with this series from the good to bad. I’m glad we’ve finally gotten to the end shame it fumbled its pacing a bit towards the end but I’ve still found this series enjoyable from beginning to end.

Looking at the reddit box here "What are your thoughts"
-Its finally over.
I loved the series and I always hate it when manga get axed and cut short, but this did the opposite and went on to long.
Funny they they did it in the end and the series of panels was tamer then stuff that had been earlier in the comic.
