So Higurashi was delayed for quality reasons. I suppose it is good that MangaGamer now actually cares about quality.

[Kooh !9WUSc85B6o No.]

why didnt the sonozaki twins take the job?
fucking idiots.

They probably didn't want to be their dogs.

Higurashi is like 1MB longer than F/SN, I didn't expect it to be released any time soon.

[Anonymous No.]

>>3474611
Because if they were working on it, we wouldn't get it this year, next year, or the following year.

[Kooh !9WUSc85B6o No.]

>>3474625
but come on, they get offered paid work to proof-read their translations, but instead they decline it and start translating Higurashi on their own...why...?

That's if you add Kai.

>>3474607
Do you really think that they care?
Mangagamer have had a serious problem with proofreaders because they never gave the proofreaders enough time to do their work, I am not sure if they are any better now.
They say that it is delayed for quality reasons but that doesn't necessarily mean that they are doing it right.

I wonder how much they were offered. However much MangaGamer is willing to pay though was enough for the Soul Link guy (though he was already ~60% done)

Give Shuffle a try, it was easily their best translated game to date

To be fair, they hired kj1980 as an editor, better known as the guy who translated the TIPS for us.

The first half is a good deal less.

[Anonymous No.]

>>3474695
Are they releasing them separately?

[Anonymous No.]

First half is 2.21MB, which is shorter then Edelweiss and KiraKira

[Anonymous No.]

>>3474699
Yeah, they are doing two releases

[Anonymous No.]

I don't see why everyone is concerned about MangaGamer's quality. Every release since Da Capo has been higher quality then Ever17 or Jast's recent releases.

I'm only interested in the 3rd world/act/whatever the hell you wanna call it, where keichii is the killer. Was it done well in the VN for those who have read it?

[Anonymous No.]

>>3474736
I don't think so bro.
Ever17 suffer from grammatical errors and over literal translation while Kira Kira translation is just annoying typo and spelling mistakes which really standout.

You don't even notice the errors in Ever17 unless you are a grammar nazis.
