Urgh, I feel like I lost ; D
But yeah, ever since I self-taught japanese I've always had respect for group translators because sometimes it's just hard to get the point across into English.
Thanks for the clarification。

That is just diference in experience, When I started having portuguese(main language) grammar classes I already had japanese classes.
To get better at this tricky situations practice is the only way to go, the more you translate the better you get at it. Try entering a translation group wich at least one other more experienced translator, I'm sure that if he only has to correct minor errors like that you will be helping a lot and learning at the same time
PS: The manga is quite good, but has only a few chapters released(I added it to my reading list)

@alldark Well of course it looked familiar I read it last month! It is super cute and I wished it was longer! Panchira Banzai! Even though I'm a girl... that was a cute panchira
@CatzCradle Lol I wondered about that manga too! I found a preview image of it on the website somewhere and it the girl looked so cute/weird XD I can see why people weren't sure how to translate the title though! I've never seen the word dansai and no other manga use it in the title! But it obviously has something to do with cutting hair... Anyways its on my reading list too! Recently so much from Comic Alive that I like.
@Dafat-MKII I do know some Japanese how do you know. I studied 4 years in college but I still know so little kanji and cover images never have furigana so they're hard to figure out sometimes (which why I wasn't sure about this). Although I could read the Mayo Chiki part XD
Recently there are a lot of seinen manga I like (I used to only read shoujo), but they usually have no furigana (mini letters next to the kanji) =_= Maybe I should learn more kanji, but after 300 they just wont fit in my head anymore since a lot look similar XP
