Reminder that Majikoi S was Fuwanovel machine translating where an actual translation left off.

Again.

Reminder that there's two guys translating a un-announced game by MG.

>Also, let's just say that all the amazing stuff didn't fit into Anime Expo, including the game GareJei and I will be working on next.

>>13795404
is there any recent official word on the subahibi status?

So is KNS2 going to be released soon or will they hd it off for another few months for a fall release?

>>13795422
I'm hoping for Dies Irae but it's probably something else.

>>13795415
I saw the release thread and it mentioned they had a full team with translators, QC and everything.

Surely they wouldn't all just edit machine translated lines.

>>13795443
I dunno how "official" it is, but from what I heard they were shooting for early August.

>>13795501
Expect a Halloween release just like KNS1 and Cartagra.

What's your favorite otome

>>13795686
https://vndb.org/v1292

>>13795686
Ken ga Kimi is good.

>>13795690
I hope we get "Nightmare Assault - Threats, Violence, and Sex" translated some day.

Is Natsuiro Mikan any good?

Looks like that Wish kickstarter finally got underway after being on prefundia forever. Kinda seems like an old-school typemoon doujin game.

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/305439676/change-localization-by-supporting-culture-select-w

I backed it because not-sekai project and it seems like their translator is also doing higurashi for MG, so it should be atleast decent quality.

>>13795814
Japanese version was never uploaded so noone played it.

>Raidy III - July 20th release

>>13795846
Well, shit.

Eh. I've spent $14 on worse.

>>13795937
Post your order number pls, it would be interesting to see how particular game does between preorder and sales first week.

>>13795443
According to Moogy it should only take a few more weeks or som

>>13795947
It'll probably have to wait until Monday, but will do.

>>13795390
You forgot Albatross Sky Butlers. Its translation is at 15%. Please don't forget to include it on the thread next week.

>>13795947
An anon posted his order number on the second VNTLS thread. The thread is still up.

>>13796031
I know, and already added that one. Its the daily dynamic which is interesting.

>>13795380
>Majikoi S - released

I periodically check every 2-3 months
I had no idea it is done

thank you, thank you so much
You made my day

>>13796310
You could have easily machine translated it for yourself without having to wait.

>>13795390
>Euphoria - In scripting
Aaaaaaaaaany day now

>>13796316
But why would you hurt yourself like that?

>>13796031
Actually, I've heard the ASB translation is complete and they're on the first editing pass. However, we don't know how many editing passes there will be.

>>13796310
You checked with pretty damn good timing considering it was JUST finished.

>>13796141
Moogy's just like those idiots here that like to condescendingly mock some Fuwanovel post instead of just posting there and saying it to the dude's face. It's kind of pathetic that he's so incensed by these posts that he is unable to separate reality from fiction.

>>13796386
He isn't even talking about us.

>>13796397
Where did I say that he was? I'm just pointing out the blatant hypocrisy.

>>13795473
The ShiniKiss person did that too. In fact, I think that's the same as the aforementioned Ikikoi one, so that person may be brain damaged. And then there was whoever translated Little Princess.

Also, herkz shit talks literally every project he's involved in, so there's that.

>>13796356
He's already reading an edited MT with the Fuwa patch, so...

>>13796463
He's also already gone so this discussion is pointless.

>>13796465
May it serve as a reminder for the future generations then.

>>13796413
There's plenty of translators that especially consider their older translation mediocre. In rare cases (as with Ixrec's Moon and GundamAce's Never7) this leads to a complete retranslation to do the work justice. I've even seen a project being dropped before after reaching 100% because the translator realized the translation was too shit to release and couldn't be arsed to do it all over again.

>>13796049
Sweet Sweat seems to be selling rather well. It already is the top seller of the week.
I really hope this encourages MG to porsue more exclusive loli VNs.

>>13796404
Why are you posting this here and not telling Moogy directly?

>>13796515
Because he is moogy.

>>13796526
But moogy is you.

So what's up with Amnesia being updated with a release date and shit, yet there's two other vita otome games that's never been listed. Does OP hate Aksys shit?

>>13796505
Galette seems like a good start. Especially considering the existing partnership for Albatross Sky Butlers.

>>13796551
Yeah, he's a retard when it comes to companies he doesn't like for some arbitrary personal reason. You'll also notice he's shit at keeping Sekai stuff up to date.

>>13796530
How did you know? Is it because you and moogy are in fact the same person?!

>>13796558
Dovac, stop pretending anyone else cares about your shit company.

>>13796563
Obviously they do care or else they wouldn't keep buying our games, idiot.

>>13796566
Steamtards don't read even game's title, it would be absurd to assume that any of them went as far as checking publisher before collecting next card.

>>13796568
So fucking what? The end result is I'm making money and you just look like a bitter, jealous asshole.

>>13796579
REKT

>>13796505
>I really hope this encourages MG to porsue more exclusive loli VNs.

That's the idea, anyway. Bought ImoPara (hardcopy) for the same reason.

>>13796597
SAVAGE! No thread is safe!

What are some other good loli games besides Galette's stuff? I'm not exactly well versed on the subject.

I think the main reason I hate h-scenes is that they tend to have dicks in them. Get those out of there and I'm all for it.

>>13796664
Please go.

>>13796664
Better skip Subahibi, then.

>>13796668
I'll go where I please. We all have our preferences. That's why I'm happy it looks like MangaGamer is really getting into yuri now.

>>13796683
And I had no intention of ever reading that problematic shit in the first place.

>>13796686
>>13796687
Nice, I will never reply to you again.

JUST licensing SubaHibi?

>>13796692
After this post, you will never know who I am again.

>>13796703
Nah, I'm sure they're licensing other stuff too.

>>13795501
Doddler needs to port the entire game to Untiy, so it's still going to be a while. Plus beta testing phase after he's done.

Wrong image てへぺろ

>>13796755
who?

>>13796755
His anime opinions sure are shit. But I knew that was coming when I clicked it.

>>13796755
Why do you still care about this guy so much? Not only is Dracu-Riot not all that good, he never actually did any work on it past the partial patch released in...2013? So who cares?

>>13796356
This. I... tried, but the awkward translations do their best to butcher a cute girl's personality!

>>13796361
Nah the next check isn't due till August or so
Which would've meant at least 2 more weeks without Majikoi
This thread is a godsend

>>13796814
Yeah, so I mean it was very good timing that you decided to break your schedule and check. Because you showed up at the perfect time.

So, how is the patch so far? I haven't tried it, still gotta play the original.

>>13796802
> who cares?
I care. I love Dracu-Riot and i want to read it in normal language.

>>13796875
Japanese is a normal language.

>>13796879
Yes. But I don't understand Japanese.

>>13796891
Are you sure?

>>13796802

He cares about a C->E translator who doesn't understand what Denpa is (unless the J->C butchered that, which doesn't make it any better). The guy's beyond hope at best.

>>13796900
> C->E translator who doesn't understand what Denpa is
Still better than nothing or atlas.

>>13796911
No, there's no justifying it.

>>13796606
I've not actually had the time to play them, but I do intend to play games by Kodomo-H and Complets. Complets seem to especially make nice loli/shota focused games that are short and have good ero.

Kurukuru Fanatic is at 87.5%, for those who care

>>13797335
an all Yandere VN?

>>13796842
Checked all the routes and played a bit of Big T's - seem to be 100%, very good writing, characters seem faithful to Yandere Translations. I like it.

>>13795415
I've read most of the routes they've translated, it's a good translation, definitely not a machine

>>13797445
You say that based on what? That you, an ESL, only see a few mistakes?

>>13797472
I'm just basing off my own knowledge
then again, my opinion doesn't matter
also wasn't the team that did the miyako route different from the one that did the S routes?

>>13797485
No. The same Fuwanovel 'translators' took Pun's work in S and machine TLed the rest as did with Takajun's work in Majikoi.

>>13797472
That's the great Fuwa lie. Machine translators are 100% accurate, they just mess up grammar, so if you fix that, you're good to go. If it doesn't look exactly like Google output, then it must not be machine translated.

Leading you to shit like this:
>九割六分の仲間が死んだ。

>Ninety percent of my comrades were dead within six minutes.

>>13797492
Well i've played through about 3 routes and so far everything looks decent, nothing to complain about
maybe the translation gets more rocky the farther down the untranslated-rabbit-hole I go

>>13797472
The english sounds so simple.. It feels like a game made for newfags to vns. Almost any J-E translation loses it's original style and beauty these days.

>>13797500
Or more likely, you're happy with any shit that's shoveled your way, don't care about accuracy, and don't care about the English being above a third graders level.

>>13797526
>it's
its*

>>13797530
sure that could be it
why don't you read it yourself instead of assuming everything is shit?

>>13797542
I don't assume everything is shit. I assume this is shit because it is being produced by shit people who have posted their shit work before and made shitloads of mistakes. Covering your ears and pretending like they haven't royally fucked up everything they've touched so far doesn't make them not shit. It means you're happy to eat shit but get upset when people point that out.

>>13795422
>>13795547
Based on their vndbs it can only really be Dies or Eustia.

It's probably Eustia.

>>13797572
It will probably be some kind of plot heavy game based on their tastes but if MangaGamer gets an August partnership I have a feeling they'd go with Daito first. Romance is safer.

>>13797586
MG has also referred to Evangeline and Euphoria as plot games, so don't swallow their marketing whole.

>>13795686
https://vndb.org/v1289

Sad to know we'll never get many r18 otome games translated because the fandom is so full of butthurt about this sort of thing.

>>13797499
Why is it that people always say that something is wrong but never say how?

>>13797590
>euphoria
>not a plot game

u wot m8

>>13797590
I'm basing this on their habits and not their marketing. I find it unlikely that they'd choose Eustia over Daito. Especially since Daito had a recent anime.

>>13797622
"96% of my comrades have died."

That's what it actually means. There's absolutely nothing about 6 minutes in that line.

That's how it's wrong. And that's how Google Translate gets it wrong (which is what the "translators" probably used).

>>13797630
It also makes absolutely no grammatical sense to read it that way. If you did it would be "6 minutes of my companions"

>>13796606
Naisho no Naisho is pretty highly-regarded as far as lolige goes. Crayon Tulip seems pretty popular as well.

>>13797635
Which is what hints at the the "translators" most likely having no idea about Japanese whatsoever.

>>13797630
The main translator (Dowolf) works pretty fast. Someone actually made a comment about him on the Majikoi site saying he's a "translating machine" by pure coincidence. Fuwa may as well be the new HongFire(R.I.P.)

>>13797586
I don't really understand why would you base your guess on their taste. It's not like translators only get to work on what they like. The business isn't that sweet and accompanying. People have to translate what they're told to and be happy they get paid.

>>13797646
That line is from TDA, not majikoi. There are several fuckups in the majikoi translation but none on that level.

>>13797655
Do you have any examples?

Any news about when the Muv Luv kickstarter will go live?

>>13797655
They're starting to translate new shit but won't finish Altered Fable? Sen has been MIA since last year and I want to believe that the final patch would be out soon.

>>13797672
Wanna pay money for something you already have?

>>13797653
lol, no, not really. These translators do it for fun, even the ones working for companies like MangaGamer. The pay is abysmal, that part doesn't matter. They do this as a very lightly paid hobby on the side to distract them from their real jobs, they won't translate something they don't actually want to do. The only exception is if MangaGamer forces some people to do nukige before bigger stuff, but they've said they don't do that.

>>13797559
Is he asserting that Miyako is acting as an attention whore at the moment, maybe sarcastically? I don't remember the scene.

>>13797672
https://twitter.com/muvluvseries/status/617533211413905408

>>13797677
I love Muv Luv, I want to have a physical copy to display on my shelf.

>>13797693
Would be better to just get a Japanese copy than a cucked official English one honestly.

>>13797697
If I am going to throw money at it, I'd rather purchase it in a language I could actually read.

Besides, the prospect of getting official localizations for the spin-offs is worth it.

>>13797693
Just order the original copies instead of using buying it through kikestarter. You can most likely find the older releases on yahoo action and the ps3, xbox360, and win7 pc release can probably be found elsewhere also.

>>13797717
Why are you so against getting the kickstarter version?

There is literally nothing wrong with kickstarting VN localizations.

>>13797737
>Why are you so against getting the kickstarter version?
It encourages more kickstarters,
>There is literally nothing wrong with kickstarting VN localizations.
Except that it's only all ages trash that gets localized.

>>13797737
>Why are you so against getting the kickstarter version
The fact that I don't know the quality of the product intended to release is enough reason for me to not support the kickstarter. In this specific case, they're using Ixrec translation with revisions so this is more than enough reason for me to not support the kickstarter.

>>13797787
>Except that it's only all ages trash that gets localized.
true

>>13797787
Have they claimed that only the All-ages version will get localized? Or are you just making an assumption?

Eroges get localized as much as non-H games. I don't see what you're talking about.

>>13797789
>Hating on Ixrec for no good reason

Why does /jp/ hate that man so much? i've read nothing but complaints about his work, but I've yet to see someone step up and do better.

Is there any fantranslated VN out there that /jp/ will claim "Yes, this is a standard quality translation"?

>>13797838
Lots of translators are better than Ixrec, you must not be looking very hard. And the only porn game SP has released so far has been Nekopara with the rest being relegated to "wait and see" status, so questioning the future of 18+ releases may be somewhat justified.

>>13797838
>Why does /jp/ hate that man so much?
Because people who don't understand Japanese and cannot write in English should never attempt translating anything.
Just compare C+C votes on vndb and EGS and you will understand why everyone hates him: things he generates are horrible, mangled abominations which have nothing to do with original but completely ruin any perspective of game in the west. There will not ever be decent C+C translation because of him and you will never get to experience true C+C.

>>13797737
If the kickstarter is for a new improved graphics, better sound or add more story I'm all for it but if not I don't see why they want the founds, for rereleasing a finished game to the west? Or for the translation prowided by Ixrec?

I don't know what Sekai Project has to do with this, but they have two 18+ only release planned for the future.

Either way, this is run by Degica and they have said that they want to do an 18+ version as well.

>>13797910
I didn't say SP had anything to do with it, but when it comes to startups pushing Kickstarters of fantranslated VNs there's still pretty much no track record for 18+ releases. And having a release planned doesn't mean anything in the eroge world.

>>13797667

>>13797559
>>13797472

>>13797680
The phrase he's using is idiomatic. It means someone who wants attention, but is pretending like they don't. The boy who cried wolf is a fable about yelling false alarms.

>>13797864
That's an unfair comparison. His MLA translation, while not perfect, is a lot better than the C+C "translation". In fact, he's getting better and better every year, and he's very dedicated to spreading quality eroge in the west. Yet you keep on hating him just because he overestimated his translation skills six years ago.

>>13798027
>he's getting better and better every year
The problem is that he's still shit. Do we really need to go through the greatest hits of Rewrite again?

>>13798020
It's also a fucking trainwreck of a line. A better translation would be "You're a real attention whore, danna! (TL/N: danna means sugar-daddy)"

>>13798048
Thanks for helping, Ti9.

>>13798027
Not anymore, everyone knows he's busy fucking his girlfriend.

>>13798036
>Do we really need to go through the greatest hits of Rewrite again?
Please do as I don't know what he did wrong.

>>13798171
Have a sampling then.
><0386> ネタ『31歳人妻です。浮気相手を探しています』を削除した!
><0386> You deleted Info: "I'm a 31 year-old housewife and my spouse is cheating on me"!

Spouse is never mentioned. Somehow entirely misses the only verb in the sentence and puts some random other shit in. Actual says: "...looking for someone to cheat with."

>//<0189> 「学生が固定資産税や維持費を捻出できるわけないでしょう。ここは金ロレね」
><0189> 「There's no way a student could pay the maintenance fees or the capital gains tax. They can barely afford a gold Rolex.」
Capital gains tax is entirely incorrect in every way and doesn't even make sense. Aside from really bizarre financial situations, you can always afford to pay capital gains taxes because they're taxes on GAINS. Anyway, it's supposed to be property tax. Also, it says literally "Here/This place isn't gold rolexes." As in "people around here aren't walking around with gold rolexes." As in people aren't rich. I don't even know if he knows what a rolex is.

>//<2997> 「目上じゃなくて格上って言いきりましたね…」
><2997> 「Sorry...」
I hope I don't need to explain this one. Yes, there is some wordplay here, but instead of even trying to make it come across, or even make up a new line that's similar, he just erases the whole thing and changes the line entirely

>>13798270
Actually, I think I will explain the last line.

Literally, it's something like "Not my superior/senior, say you're higher ranked." He's saying that the other person has a higher position in some organization, but is not his better. It's a baiting remark, which is the opposite of an apology, and is not at all difficult to translate to English, so I don't know why he felt the need to completely erase and change the line to the opposite.

>>13797910
Because SP started the shitty trend of, "Hey, want these 18+ eroge sequels translated? Throw us money first and we'll throw you some all-ages shit of things already translated first, then maybe we'll actually put in some effort down the line (lol)."

>>13798325
Does 目上 imply something other than social status?

My expectations of translations these days are rather low. I just hope they can be read and make sense. Which shuts out machine translation translations, but allows rewrites to pass.

>>13798421
Well if you're okay with reading fanfiction instead of the actual story, Ixrec is the translator for you.

>>13797472
The only problem I see is that it says ar instead of are. Wow, a typo, the ENTIRE translation is RUINED!

>>13797590
Princess Evangile has a lot more plot than you'd think from looking at it. It's also very, very long. Don't judge a book by its cover.

>>13797864
Huh? I thought the retranslation of C+C by that other dude (Michael something or other) was generally seen as pretty good.

>>13798556
God no. His English is somewhat better than Ixrec's, but his Japanese comprehension is just as bad, and it's all being passed through the filter of a Dan Brown-esque fringe lunatic conspiracy reading of the entire game.

>>13798563
>the filter of a Dan Brown-esque fringe lunatic conspiracy reading of the entire game.

Can you explain that in more detail? I'm not familiar with Dan Brown. I'm also having trouble understanding how it is even possible to do that to this game.

Read the interpretation that he wrote of C+C and tell me what you think, it's over 400 pages long. I heard he got that insane because he tried to play YU-NO without a walkthrough.

>>13798580
Well, as someone who was an English major in uni, I'm used to writing this kind of interpretation for various works of literature, so it doesn't seem too out of the ordinary, outside of the very unusual length for something presumably not written as a school project, since that's the main reason why we tend to bloviate. I wouldn't worry too much about it, we're all like this. It could be worse, anyway. It could be Time Cube.

Oh well. At least he did Hanahira, which seems like a more appropriate project. And I see he's actually working on something else at this very moment, I wonder what it could be.

>>13798770
Let Ixrec make stupid mistakes so you don't have to. Great idea.

>>13798781
Someone tossed around an idea that he was paid to.

Personally I think Hanahira is deceptively hard, maybe that's why he went for it - as an exercise.

>>13798781
probably for fun

>>13798784
Better than the stupid mistakes that the so-called proofreaders in this thread continuously make.

>>13798790
You'd think he'd at least disclose the reason after he was done.

Also, what? What makes it hard?

>>13798804
Well try to be an adult male translating dialogues between little girls. I don't think it's easy, if you want do a good job of it.

>>13798812
Well, that depends entirely on your tastes. Some of us spend lots of time around little girls. This guy is clearly just a yuri hater that was thrown into translating a yuri VN, for whatever reason.

>>13798638
He said he'd be done with the translation by today, and he was right. The translation was done a while ago.

>>13798930
He probably thought I was going down. He was right. Down, right. Downright Darius.

>>13799129
Christ almighty, as an EOP I should not be able to pick up on these translators' mistakes so easily. What an awkward position to be in.

>>13799140
Well, Ixrec's work is really honestly not as bad as people claim. It's not perfect, but what is? Besides Eli Ayase, I mean.

>>13799225

>>13799225
Are you sure? Because it's really easy to find examples of him fucking up basic sentences.

>>13799225
Ixrec is slowly going MIA, I think Rewrite Harvest Festa is gonna be the last thing he translates. I hope he doesn't drop it midway like TakaJun did with Majikoi..

>>13799225
Well, I'm not going to go overboard on the Ixrec hate, but it's still pretty weird to scroll through these comparisons between the original Japanese and his rendition. If it's got me of all people thinking, "How the hell do he get that out of it?" then there must be a problem. The only explanation I can think of for someone who sits around reading Japanese all the time making such mistakes would be that translating an eroge is so excruciating and mind-numbing that you slip up badly now and then and make a mistake far below your level. Not that Ixrec's proficiency level is particularly amazing.

>>13799299
Ixrec is just really bad at Japanese and totally in denial about and this unwilling to learn. If you look at his guide to Japanese learning, the example sentences are gibberish because he wrote them himself.

>>13799306
>>13799299
It also doesn't help that he has incredibly warped views on writing in English and doesn't know basic English grammar rules.

>>13799306
What does he say to people who point out how he's wrong? I mean, considering there's objective evidence.

>>13799311
What, do you............ mean............?

>>13799317
He ignores them, and if they hurt his feelings too much, one of his mods bans them, deletes all their posts, and he just goes "Oh well. Nothing can be done about it."

>>13799284
If he does, I hope he at least bothers to put out a partial with his work so far, or share his files. It's kinda bullshit when people just disappear from the internet and take their work with them. It's not like you don't know you're leaving, you can at least be nice enough to help others out before you do.

>>13799317
He (or Sheeta) bans them.

>>13799323
>>13799326
That's dumb. But I suppose that's his only option since he can't exactly argue against it and obviously doesn't want to simply admit to being wrong.

>>13799250
You mean official fanfics of nitroplus games?

駅前のロータリーを少し外れると人混みがなくなり……住宅が増えてくる。

To me, this reads to me as something like at the lottery in front of the station, then its something about coming out of a crowd eliminates , then something about more housing. After cleaning it up a bit, to me it becomes something like:

After coming out from the lottery(rotary?) in front of the station, the crowd(of people) began to thin out, and I began to see more housings.

'Rotary' is wasei-eigo for a roundabout, or traffic circle.

>>13799358
Oh, I guess 'rotary' actually is used in that way in New England. Well, whatever. Fuck Boston anyway.

>>13799363
I don't know what we're talking about, but I agree, fuck Boston.

Apparently Aroduc's translating Venus Blood Frontier.

>>13798528
Well, you're wrong. That whole passage is one long grammatical nightmare. I imagine the rest of the game is of similar quality.

If you're just going to edit a machine translation, at least edit it to be grammatically correct.

>>13799317

Back when he was doing Rewrite, he was having people post mistakes for the partial patch he released. He was mostly wanted grammar/spelling errors, but some guy was going through and corrected a lot of the translation/wording stuff. Needless to say, Ixrec accused him of just posting editing suggestions and told him to stop.

>>13797679
Arunaru is obviously upset he was assigned to translate Haruka, but he's doing it anyway. And I don't think Good Haro was too enthusiastic about translating Ultimate Boob Wars, but she did it to get the opportunity to translate games she did want to work on. MG releases a good amount of nukige, since they're provide a quick turnover and guaranteed profit, so at some point the translators do have to work on nukige.

>>13798812
Hanahira dialogues don't use any "special" girlish japanese. Most of the time its generic normative keigo.

>>13797910
>they have two 18+ only release planned for the future
Those are both doujin games that were obviously dirt cheap to license. Sekai won't risk losing money on a major license if it can't be put on Steam.

>>13799129
whats wrong with this

>>13799927
As an EOP, I'm assuming it's a matter of subject, and the "proper" translation is something like...

>(mou, I said "good job" already!)
>replace "mou" with whatever expression fits the user

>>13799989
what the hell? that makes no sense at all

>>13799989
I'm not exactly fluent, but the translator probably thought the いい was 言い. The character is probably sick of someone else saying good job.

>>13800018
Honestly, I was thinking the いいって might've referred to that, but then I started second-guessing myself (when I already have little clue to begin with).

Meh. I'd need some contextual clues if I want to not bullshit a translation.

>>13800047
Verb after グッジョブ_は_ doesn't make any grammatical sense.

This is the correct reading of the sentence.

って is と言って, so it becomes "I said stop saying "good job"" or something like that.

>>13800419
I don't know much about Star Trek but his description certainly fits Sekai better than the Ferengi one. Sekai releases a lot of stuff now, even if it's the same stuff we've seen before.

Kinda like asking if you should get slapped on your right or left cheek.

The correct answer is that you dodge, no matter how you slice it.

>>13800899
>You just need to be very perceptive when reading it.

In what sense? Is there a non-spoilery example you can give?

>>13800905

>>13800347

> but they say the same thing about every single translation that exists
You keep saying this unbased shit every time someone speaks truth about ixrec, but you know yourself its not true.
Koestl is good translator, Makoto is good translator, Garejei is good translator.
Then we have plenty of other decent people like Good Haro, Arunaru, Maria, Apoptosis and so on and on. All of them are well-respected and people don't bash their translations (your samefagging posts don't count).

GHS only because his 160k (1+6+0=7) word ebook that comes along with it was almost as fun to read as the game itself.

By the way, all the people who say Ixrec doesn't suck clearly haven't seen his TL for Forest.

>>13800957
I would totally appreciate an example.

Any examples of GHS' bad translation? I've seen it for Ixrec, but I've only seen examples of GHS' insanity, which is not the same thing. I've seen insane people who are still good translators, like Kouryuu.

The modern English usage of the word has taken on a broader meaning, having been popularized through vernacular use in film, literature, and television. The word is sometimes interpreted—particularly in business parlance—as meaning the amount of courage, mettle or ardor that an individual has.[citation needed] However in more traditional usage, chutzpah has a negative connotation.

I think so? Explain that. Maybe machine translations aren't so bad after all.

>>13801608
Then you already have all nessesary tools to read KGNE right now. No need to wait for ixwreck.

>>13801612
I don't really have an interest in reading KGNE, myself. But here's the thing about translations. If the quality of the original game is sufficiently good, the quality of the translation is simply irrelevant. A good game's positives will shine through no matter what.

>>13801608
It's the 'translation' that gave us this gem.

And they defended it by saying that it doesn't matter how they do their translation as long as it's accurate, AND they had a professional translator looking over and checking every single script for accuracy, so who cares if they were using machine TL because it was accurate. One of them literally said
>I, personally, do not speak the language, but I am also a professional writer. If I have any doubts about a line, I can use Jparser to verify tenses, followed by a dictionary
He checks if the machine translation is accurate by putting it in a machine translator.

>>13801626
JParser is not "machine translator", what the fuck are you talking about?

>>13801630
Yeah, JParser is actually the handle of one of the staff members, if memory serves.

>>13801633
Cant tell if you are insane or just trolling.
JParser is electronic dictionary based on EDICT. It provides dictionary articles for individual words, it doesn't "translate" anything.

>>13801639
That makes no sense. Why would he use a dictonary when he could just ask JParser, who actually knows Japanese tenses?

>>13801644
Okay, I give up, your insanity is too strong.

>>13801646
I mean, if you're trying to suggest there's a dictionary also named JParser, it's probably just a coincidence. The names I go by are often taken by someone else too. But I think we can trust this JParser guy's work.

By the way, has the guy that says he's a professional writer published a book or anything?

Oh fuck, Eab1990 comes here? Fuck.

>>13801646
No, we all understand what you're doing. It's just so incredibly retarded that it's more fun to mock you.

>>13801699
> we all
Your insanity progressed to MPD already?

>>13801699
I actually don't understand what he's doing. Care to enlighten me?

Another great Ixrec translation.

Damn, the forgotten kamige of the year with a good translator..

>>13801869
Please translate the sentences and explain the joke.

>>13801883
It's not a reference to that meme. It's not a reference to any meme. She's saying that everything he has belongs to her. His retort is that it was a completely childish bully-like comment.

>>13795390
>Kara no Shoujo 2 - 100% translated and edited

Neat.

>>13801852
I see you couldn't resist an opportunity to be the meme master, but I was quoting the idiot in the forum thread.

http://amaterasu.tindabox.net/forums/index.php?topic=1040.30

There are some good gems in there, both from Ixrec and the morons submitting "errors."

I think people understate just how much of an absolute fucking madman Ixrec is, just because GHS is even worse. So Amaterasu patches have that going for them, at least. You know you'll be in for some entertainment.

>>13801922
According to Doddler the full game won't be out for a few more months.

>That's a deliberate pause, to keep the rhythm, yo.

>>13801947
>I'd expect it before the end of the year

Bummer, but I've plenty of other things to keep me occupied until then. Thanks for the info!

Random question, but does anyone know who it was that started the "Support JAST's official localizations of Nitroplus games" thing? Some TLWiki guy? What does he do for the scene?

>>13801968
Barring any unexpected delays, I think that October or November are the months it's most likely to release in.

>>13801977
It's a big VN and MG staff will work on a lot of projects at the same time after the Otakon so i think you are a too optimistic anon.

>>13801869
That's actually not such a bad translation.

The nuance of the second line is that he's being ridiculous, and the way whoever handled this is a lot funnier/more effective than what a purely literal translation would deliver.

I'd say whoever handled this has a fairly good grasp of Japanese nuance, so this can't possibly be Ixrec.

>>13802087
> this is a lot funnier
Who needs original text when you can be next mememaster! Rub a dub dub, thanks for the grub.

>>13802049
It's not like they haven't prioritized certain projects before. Many of MG's partners do their own scripting, and it's not like Doddler is MG's only programmer anymore.

>>13802102
So this is why people think Doki's okay and Commie is not. They think one to one translations are the only acceptable thing.

Oh fuck, Eab1990 comes here? Fuck.

>>13801406
Made me check.
Stop trying to give us false hopes.

>>13802243
Oh yeah, motherfucker? How does the Dies Irae OP go then?

>>13802252
>Oh yeah, motherfucker?
Chill down man. He's probably trolling you.

>>13802269
Yeah, sorry about that. I think you're right, because I just went to check it myself and it really is the same. Like holy shit, how are people not more excited for this?

>>13801587
Most of /m/ doesn't actually know japanese.
>>13801621
Nonsense, if you can't understand shit then you wouldn't be able to appreciate the quality of its plot. Translation quality do matter.

>>13802283
That's the thing though. You CAN understand it. All you need is a functioning brain. Some people are lost causes and would not understand with even the best translation, but someone who is good enough at understanding things will be fine with any translation.

>>13802296
Well, bless be those who understand machine translation then, cuz they ain't the majority.

>>13802294
Accuse yourselves. Who created this thread?

>>13802304
True, they are the chosen few. It's sad that basic understanding is so rare these days, though. Just look at all the people who think G-Reco makes no sense. Sad.

>>13802316
I think you should go back to /m/.

I shall stop replying.

>>13802273
>I just went to check it myself and it really is the same.
Can you post where you're checking that? I can't seem to find the musical notes

>>13802371
Have you never taken a music class in your life? It goes quarter, eighth, eighth-eighth, sixteenth-sixteenth, three times in a row. Now listen to the music and tell me you don't hear that. You can't, because that is actually what it is.

>>13802371
Anon, that's not how music works. These "notes" aren't actually notes and don't really represent anything, music-wise. Just in case you haven't realized it yet, if you believed his words, you should be aware that you have been trolled by him. That is all.

>>13802414
I'm not fucking joking around. That is literally the rhythm of the music in the Dies Irae OP.

>>13802322
That's what you said earlier in the thread, and I still got you talking to me again.

See you next dream.

Holy shit, someone's been translating Mahoutsukai no Yoru.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z1n_EYBGgHM

>>13802464
Holy shit he's translated about 2% of the game and hasn't updated in six months.

>>13802273
>Like holy shit, how are people not more excited for this?
Seems too good to be true and people don't want to get a massive disappointment if other VN is announced. I can't blame them though.

>>13802485
Well, look at it this way. Either it's Dies Irae, or it's Aoiro Rinne. No matter what, we come out as the winners in this.

>>13802412
I can, because I have no idea what quarter, eighth, eighth-eighth, sixteenth-sixteenth is supposed to sound like, it's gibberish.

>>13802499
>Either it's Dies Irae, or it's Aoiro Rinne.
I don't see how anyone thinks it's either of them.

>>13802512
So you don't know anything about music, meaning you're not qualified to talk about what it is or isn't. But there are plenty of others who can actually hear it.

>>13802499
Aoiro is very special game. There are shittons of unavoidable scenes which will throw average VN consumer in uncontrollable rage fit.
I'm actually enjoying it, but I've also played Dustmania, euphoria and other fucked up shit.

>>13802535
Hmm, well MG's also translating Euphoria. So I wouldn't put it past them to do this.

>>13802544
Euphoria was a frequently requested game though.

So, has Raidy 3 been released?

>>13800995
After I saw GHS translate バカップル as "syrupples" in Cross Channel I decided to forgive everything else. I figured it was in line with one of the themes of the game to do so anyway.

>>13802655
Rikaichan says love birds, so I figure syrupples is probably the correct thing you'd get if you use knowledge instead of a dictionary.

>>13802674
You know, until somebody posted what it was supposed to be a translation of I assumed you guys were talking about some kind of candy apple.

>>13802535
What kind of scenes exactly? I would like to rage.

>>13802517
What if it was Sumaga?! This could be MG's reply to JAST's Flowers debacle!

>>13802740
First one, like 2 hours in the game:
Protag finally gets to know that one heroine loves him, but then she is brutally raped while he watches and then shot into head several times, splattering her brains around.

>>13802655
Well, you can't say that he isn't an interesting fellow.
>Hmmm, orange is FF7F00 – 16, 16, 7, 16.

>>13802760
I just checked and there is indeed a NTR tag It's a shame, but i will have to pass, thanks for responce though.
