The one-eyed Gerbera daisy is a well known character in Happy Grimm's fairy tales. Happy was the younger cousin of the brothers Grimm. Even tho she failed moral tale class, where one learns to write stories with a good moral, she sold many more magic beans, golden geese and talking frogs than Jakob and Wilhelm.

The Pig and the Peacock: Fan translation VS official English manga
This blog were suppose to include scans of the manga I bought, but my computer is being a dick and I need someone to take a proper look at it. So working on my tablet.
BTW, this will focus on bits of dialogue I think are so different it could potentially give the story a different feel so to say. Also, remember to buy the manga.
In “The Pig and the Peacock” where Gerbera enter Eugene’s rather... morbid shop, they discuss the bodies of animals and how they all have unique types of beauty.
In the fan translation:
In the official English translation, Gerbara says: “You're contradicting yourself. But its a nice sentiment. And a memorable one.”
In both cases, Gerbera is being condescending. But in the fan one it seems like he can agree to a degree. In the official manga, he calls it a “nice sentiment”, which is both flattering and degrading at the same time.
Also, Eugene calls Gerbera a “philistine” in the official English manga instead of just saying that he was “mean.”
Small detail, nothing big, but in the official manga, Gerbera’s name is Gerbera Daisy. I honestly think it is better just to name him Gerbera, but that would make him the first Beast Complex character with a middle name so to say.
In the official manga where a drunk Gerbera apologize for insulting Eugene’s shop, his speech is slurred. Like: “Eugene, you’re sho intereshting.” I like that, it is a neat detail.
This panel is beautiful.
But in the official trans, Eugene says: "You love to talk to other beasts... you're vibrant and alive... you're not a preserved flower. You're a fresh flower in need of watering and care."
Really embodies the theme of this story, about the difference of stopping the aging process of a flower to freeze beauty or to nurture the flower because it being alive is what makes it beautiful.
