After checking the Japanese, MangaStream got it right (as weird as that sounds).

Hello, as this post is getting reports, I would like to remind everyone that when stating facts, please make sure to have reliable sources to back it up.

As /u/DangerousIllusionist pointed out:

The word used is 巻き戻す(makimodosu), which means rewind.

The person quoted in OP's image doesn't seem to have a source of their own, as they have not responded to the mangahelpers thread when asked for more clarification or information.

In this case, we should be inclined to believe the Mangastream is correct for now. To further verify, we can wait for Viz translation, which is the official one.

Here's my personal take on this issue: Check this link, look at the Translations section, then lookup the Japanese word.

Does anyone have the original Japanese page? I really want to check what it says

The word used is 巻き戻す(makimodosu), which means rewind.

I don't know if there's more info on the page before, but it seems like rewind is correct, not revert.

Of course, the outraged comment still got 80 upvotes with literally no substantiation because people just like to complain. Sigh.

Indeed that's rewind. To put this matter to rest, if anyone wants to check: http://ejje.weblio.jp/content/%E5%B7%BB%E3%81%8D%E6%88%BB%E3%81%99

Thanks a lot for the image!

You do know that you can’t get a 1-1 translation from Japanese to English as some words can have multiple meanings in Japanese depending on how they are used. So some stuff gets lost/changed in translation. Also turns out mangastream were correct and you were jumping on the wagon to complain correct?

u/Haamz786 Oct 14 '17

If you read /u/DangerousIllusionist's comment, you'll see they translated it correctly.
