layann "You like me so I'm holding you now"
ARGHHH I could scream. I have seen this MILLION times already!!! I know the direct translation is "holding" but wtf!!!! It's a PORN/yaoi manga anyways! You can already say "F*ck you" that would be a better translation, regarding the content.
(even worse if the chara saying "I want to hold you" is a kick-ass chara who says things right away ... sure.)
Don't misunderstand I love most of the scanlation teams works. Its thousand times better than official translations most of the time but SOME things are just too weird and too straight-out translated without a second thought to the content.
