I'd say Saya because the translator pretty much rewrote it so it doesn't read like some super-literal transliteration. I wish there were more translations like that.

Cross Channel can't be called a very good translation regardless because of all the mistranslations.

Professional translators, sure. But it takes skill and care to do so as a fan translator translating thousands upon thousands of lines. You can't really expect amazing translations from a fan translation. Too bad professional VN translations are usually even worse though.

I got used to it after two chapters. Once you figured it out what they wanted to mean, it's better than atlas translations, and the game was truly worth it. One of the best utsoges out there.
