Translator clearly has a thesaurus open. Uncommon word =\= better.
No CKTalon has used ‘gotta’ before similarly and it has never felt right. It’s just that I don’t think they are that familiar with English and trying out different vocabulary without being aware of how connotations change.
It explicitly states it is because of Uncle Shen, or Shen Du, who suffered ‘divine punishment’ by the parish? The company clearly could have prevented it but didn’t. There could be any number of reasons for this but it doesn’t matter morally, especially not for Shang Jianyou.
Honestly this is my favourite arc out of all of Cuttlefish’s works, not due to the twist but mostly because of Hey’s response and the way the room 506 resolution tied into it. I haven’t seen any other work take such a firm stance on injustice from those in power, even while acknowledging that bad stuff might happen to those you care about. This is what makes Cuttlefish my favourite author. “No peace without justice” and all that.
