GetBackers 164 =D

I've decided to re-scanlate chapter 164 after reading through the scans posted in MangaFox and also after reading the comment made by bubba1652. (Thanks for liking my work! <3) >_< I actually wanted to just use GBsubbs translations and simply typeset them into the raws, but I ended up re-translating everything!!! I think I'll release another version of chapter 165 using the raws I have now instead of the crappy-hard-to-typeset one that was released. (Not to mention I found minor typesetting mistakes that I didn't really noticed beforehand.) But that won't really be a top priority until I finished chapter 167 translations which I will start on soon. Chapter 164 killed me with all the facts I needed to look up not to mention that I started translating and editing like 85% of it yesterday at 10pm all the way till 5am. (This is what happens when you have tons of free time and have no school/work on Thursday.) =D

Notes On This Chapter:

On page 11, Paul's explanation on the history (sort of) of the clans/tribes of Shido's and his enemies' can be further elaborated in the links below if you are interested to find out more!

On page 14 whereby Shido asked Madoka about what she used in the tea she prepared, what was stated was that she used Ylang-ylang. However, I have never heard of Ylang-ylang being used in tea!!! >_< However, it does have soothing properties and such. 

More information on Ylang-ylang here -> http://www.answers.com/topic/ylang-ylang


P.S. Off to watch Umineko episode 10! xD  tata!~

    Good job!
    And I think you should really register in mangahelpers and post your scanlations ... this will give you a chance to find other people who want to help with this manga,because i know it's not easy to scanlate manga by yourself .
    Btw this is just an advice don't take it too seriously :)
