It's finally~ done~ ohymgawd~

Star Ocean 3! The Final Volume. Featuring! Absolutely no Albel. I am disappoint. Ah, well.

In other news, my package arrived, carrying with it some lovely Assassin's Creed doujinshi from the same circle as Diamante, so keep an eye out for that. It's pretty wonderful stuff.

I'll be doing some cleaning in the forums, so those of you who frequent it (HA) check it out and make sure you look like a person, lest I delete your user.

And I solemnly swear I shan't do anymore translation until Monday night - I have a paper due Monday I haven't even started on.

Next Up: FFXII, though there's a possibility I'll finish this AC doujin before it.

Here we are, as promised - my lovely little FFXII doujinshi. Full of Balthier being wonderful - I must say, the initial exchange in this guy is probably the best thing I've ever translated.

That said, I will note that this doujinshi - even more than regular manga/doujinshi, which is saying something - it gets a bit confusing as to who's talking. I did my best, but my apologies if it gets a bit... blurry. That said, enjoy! It's wonderful and gorgeous.

Next Up: Star Ocean? Maybe? I'm thinking I might start puttering away at the second Tron chapter, too...

OH WHOOPS BREATH OF FIRE'S DONE

I really didn't intend to have this done now - I was planning to do it in the morning, at a decent hour - but then it was like "OH THERE'S ONLY TWO PAGES LEFT" but I ALWAYS FORGET the time (though not effort, particularly) that goes into PUTTING THESE THINGS UP and I want to GO TO BED BAH

That said, yay Breath of Fire!

Next Up: That FFXII doujinshi, definitely. The translation's all done, it just needs some tweaking and some extra pages scanned BUT I'M GOING TO BED DAMNIT

All~Done~Finally~

This was a long and fairly lacking in Balthier!Awesome (though what there was was REALLY awesome) chapter, so I'm glad it's finally done. Plus, it's the end of Volume 3! Yay~

I would say "don't expect anything anytime soon", since due dates are starting to come up (Nothing major; I've only got a couple high-level courses this semester, everything else's just for credits, haha) but there's still a fair amount, so...

But anyways, the next thing is BofF, and I usually manage to crank those out fairly quickly since they're already scanned and awesome and wonderful and ACTION PAGES mmmmmm.

Though I'm still puttering away at this gorgeous FFXII doujin, and I'll try to keep puttering, which will slow me down a bit but I have been a MACHINE recently and I deserve gorgeous Balthier doujinshi.

Oh, also, I've been meaning to mention - I'm glad to see (now that I can track hits) that you guys are actually visiting the In Progress page fairly often. :3 I've been making an effort to update it more regularly because of that (also putting current doujinshi projects on there, not just the manga) so, yeah. Keep an eye!

Next Up: I honestly can't remember how long the next BoF chapter is, but it's a fairly safe bet it'll be it. Though this doujinshi's a fairly close second...

01/05/12
Ahahaha, two in one day~ Look at me go~

This marks the end of Volume 6, so in my usual fashion, I'll leave the singles up for about a week or so.

Also, I could not for the life of my find the dust cover for this guy, so you don't get a scan of the back cover. I'm sure you can find it in your hearts to forgive me.

It'll turn up, and when it does, maybe I'll remember to add it to the .zip.

Next Up: FFXII! Though I wouldn't put it past me to maybe release a new doujinshi in the meantime. They are all rather shiny...

POSSIBLY LITTLE KNOWN FACT: I am an absolutely hopeless romantic.

So even though this one is super-short, AUGH IT'S SO CUTE I CAN'T TAKE IT.

It's from my package which arrived yesterday - which also includes a wonderful FFXII doujinshi I might start on. Or possibly that F/SN one...? Or that Xenosaga one would be a nice change of pace...

Next Up: I should have the new SO3 release up by tonight or early tomorrow - I've only got a couple pages left, but I must go to work.

This whole chapter:

....Yeah, that about sums it up. SO MANY FEELINGS. SO many things I want to say but I WON'T because I don't want to SPOIL things but it was BRILLIANT and my translation didn't do it JUSTICE AND IT WAS INCONSISTANT AND LKSNDGLKDNGH

I really didn't expect to have it out this soon, but I just couldn't stop. Too. Much. AWESOME. And a cliffhanger! Mwahahahha

I wouldn't expect the next one anytime soon, either - the next SO3 chapter is an extra, entirely about Sophia/Ameena, so it'll be like PULLING TEETH seriously, Albel finally gets back, then this? though it is pretty short, so who knows? But I also have a doujinshi package in the mail, so... And then school starts up pretty soon, yadda yadda yadda...

Next up: SO3's next on the project list, but I wouldn't be surprised if I got distracted.

Clearly, I am amazing when I have no class to worry about and few days off work.

Nothing much to say, besides the fact that this one was ridiculous. Absolutely ridiculous. I had been waiting to translate this chapter, it's so absurd. Totally worth the wait. Oh! And I just ordered the most fantastic looking doujinshi. I'm sure you'll be seeing them at some point in the near future~

Oh! And, since I doubt I'll get anything done before Christmas - work, then off to my parents for the weekend - I hope you all have a very merry Christma-Hanu-Rama-Ka-Dona-Kwanzaa. :3

Next Up: Breath of Fire! The translation on those usually goes super-smoothly, so I doubt I'll have time enough to release anything in between, though you never know.

12/15/11
Can't say a whole lot today, because I'm just about late for work here, but I really wanted to get this up, on the site at least - I'll get it up on the LJ during my break or something.

Anyways, can't say I've ever gotten a Star Ocean chapter out this fast before - it may have something to do with a certain character that makes a reappearance, but have you even known me to be biased to a character before? No, never! That doesn't sound like me at all.

Next Up: Final Fantasy, though there's the possibility of a doujinshi release before that.

DON'T PANIC

You are in the right place. Behold, the new layout! For my third anniversary~

It's pretty similar - most of the differences are purely aesthetic, I just wanted something new to look at - though I can now track hits on pages/downloads, which is lovely but means nothing to you, but there is also: A TWITTER.

Basically, I figured the "next up" bar was redundant when I put it on the latest update, and it didn't work since it was so thin compared to the others, so a twitter! It'll be where I post all my inane comments on current translations, such as the ones you see above.

Hm... What else? I updated the in progress/planned pages... added a Tumblr link... Assassin's Creed and Fate/Stay Night have their own sections now... I think that's about it! Let me know what you think at ANY ONE OF THE NUMEROUS OPTIONS. I'd love some feedback!

And, of course, in celebration of my third anniversary aslkndkg holy crap I present a double release. A lovely SO3 doujin, and the new Breath of Fire. Well, I call it a double release, but really I just hoarded them both until today... Though I did try really hard to get a third one done, I just couldn't do it. WHY is my anniversary in the middle of papers/finals? Bah.

Anyways, as usual, thanks for sticking with me all this time. We're in the home stretch for Breath of Fire!

Next Up: Star Ocean's in the cards, but I imagine I'll finish up that doujin-that-was-intented-to-be-anniversary-release-number-3 first.
