There is also an amusing coda to this story, where one of the fans mistook J-Novel Club for a fan translation group and tried to beg them to pick up Mahoiku before realizing that they were actually legit (Slow Press had already licensed it by this time and nobody wanted to deal with their schedules). Then later they learned that J-Novel Club actually bid for the license but were too late.

To this day, the shitty Platfleece translations are still the most widely circulated ones, with only /a/ for the most part being aware of the retranslation effort. The only silver lining to this story is that the Yen Press translator turned out to be of decent quality.
