That’s… actually pretty cool. I wouldn’t expect something like this from Shuiesha, but this is actually really awesome. It would make sense to have the early parts of these stories available for free to get people interested enough to pay for the rest.

They also call out in the about section that the translations are “done by professional translators”, so hopefully that means not by AI. If Shuiesha is pro real translators, that seems like a good sign for the quality of translations done in general.
