Aww I wouldn't put myself that high. I can't do a full doujin unless it's written in furigana.

If you want to be a truly expert translator, you have to assume that everyone knows the most basic 50000 Japanese words. Leave the whole page untranslated and write all the translation as footnotes (be sure to label your footnotes as "For the complete retards out there:")

"Fancy a go at it?"

>> No.2510157

Something like this:
