Here's another 5,000+ words of Fallen Brides translated, which brings us within five pages of the end of Mimiru's chapter.

Sorry for the long delay. I've been busier than expected while in Japan with important work like research for my masters thesis and reading 5,000+ pages of Ninja Slayer.

You can expect the rest of Mimiru within the next two weeks (I already have the whole translation in draft; I just have to type and edit it), and I'll get started on Sasha's chapter, and maybe a few shorter stories from other books, shortly thereafter.

As always, the version on the blog (link in the above pastebin) has better formatting.

New section of the Mimiru chapter of Fallen Brides translated. About 3/4 done now, and hopefully finishing in before to long. As usual, this section is on the blog with nicer formatting (link in the pastebin).

I've also got a copy of the new book, After School Alice Tale, now. It appears to be about all the Wonderland monsters except alices.

Here's another 3,000+ words of Mimiru's chapter translated. Sorry for another long delay. It really should be back to a regular schedule now.

This pretty much completes the transformation scene. 15 of 50 pages remain.

As usual, you can read the story with more formatting than Pastebin supports (italics, indents, etc.) on the blog (link in the pastebin, next to my name).

After another long delay, I have another 3,500 words or so of Mimiru's chapter translated and posted. I really should be back to more frequent regular updates after this week.

Anyway, this one concludes the fight between Mimiru and Lucella, and starts the transformation scene. (Who wants to take bets on whether one of these will ever not involve tentacles? Don't spoil it if you've read ahead.)

Also, if you want to read the story with proper formatting, including alignment and italics, it is now on the blog in addition to the Pastebin (the link to the blog is in the Pastebin).

Here's another 3,000 words or so of Mimiru's story translated. Sorry for the irregular update schedule, but I am currently in Seminar Paper Hell.

This part completes all the buildup and ends with the baphomet making her entrance, so the next update will feature a wizard fight and then the start of the transformation scene.

Another Fallen Brides update is up. This brings us to the end of the first act of Mimiru's story, so next time things will actually start happening. Also Deruella appears briefly at the end of this bit and we learn that she is not punctual about opening her mail.

Having returned from the dead, I present the first part of the English translation of Mimiru's chapter of Fallen Brides for anyone who's interested.

I plan to resume weekly updates after this.

I actually have a draft of this translation mostly finished on paper, but typing it up, double checking, and editing it is proving more time-consuming than I had hoped.
