Every time you post this, I insert the phrase loldongs somewhere in the translation.

Believe what you will. Unless you're truly dense, you catch them in the final proof. Do your best until then.

This is horrible. Quit this immediately.

ENTERPRISE QUALITY

Yes.

Yes.

Depends, is this game actually interesting instead of yet another tl;dr shitfest?


1) Does it have an actual story? Random chittery dialogue is not a story.

2) How much non-text content does it have? Images, music, things resembling actual gameplay, etc.

3) Is the game in any way unique? Does it stand out from the other fifty thousand generic VNs that people translate while the rare gems out there go ignored?

>Do you know Japanese,
Yes.

>have some free time
Yes

>and want to do some fun VN translation for /jp/?
Not for this project, no.

You should add a requirement that you know English too, because randomly thumbing through this, it's clear that whoever has been 'translating' it doesn't.

TLwiki shills out in full force today

>"No, that, that machine, although I forgot which it was, if a button was pressed, doesn't it explode?"
Valid.
>"Because it's inevitable, I certainly tried to go to configure it directly secretly."
Valid.
>"It isn't such. At that time I was chased by Amane and the chairman handed over something like a USB drive, and it was said to thrust it into the machine on the bridge..."
Valid.
>The time when Suzuno disappeared sticks and doesn't separate, and goes around in circles in my head.
Obviously valid.
>When I tried to breathe in, the drops of water that wet the face seemed to enter the nose and the mouth.
Obviously valid.
>Because immediately next to Yui's face came her hair, it was a good fragrance.
Obviously valid.

Looks like we have 4th-graders here who don't understand more advanced grammatical constructs.

>>6334616

r u srs

Yes, it's about time you guys learn THE GRAMMAR OF THE FUTURE

>>6334634

That, that post, although I forgot which it was, if a button was pressed, doesn't it get reported?

Because it's inevitable, I certainly tried to go to report it directly secretly.

>"No, that, that machine, doesn't it explode if a button is pressed, though I forgot which one it was?"

>"Because it's inevitable, I certainly tried to go to configure it directly and secretly."

etc.

You can make them sound much nicer in English.

Continuing.

It's the weekend, what'd you expect?

Up you go.

Keeping this thread up whilst we're being raided.

No idea what this thread is, but up to the top.

This project is an embarrassment. The person translating this clearly doesn't know what he's doing.

Today's total: 288
Fourth file: 12288
Remaining Subtotal: 0

And that brings us to 66.67% completion and a break for me for the rest of the month.

Back to TLwiki please.

>>6336515
Thanks for your work and enjoy your break.

whats with all the anti?
did they come from gemot or something

>>6336529

>>6336529
wtf is gemot?

Have a bump.

I literally bumped a thread while it was on the front page.

And... up!

Everyone who complains about the translation is a TLWiki shill! I seriously know what that word means, guys. Honestly. And I'm not a Retrans shill, by the way. You fucking TLWiki shills.

>>6340891
0/1.7

>>6340891
You are literally a TLwiki shill

Every time I see this thread on the front page, I'm going to remind you how shitty this project is.

Seriously. What is translating this? Deep Blue?

Cudder, or Cudder's lackey:
Please explain why you think anyone not sucking this project's dick is a "TLWiki shill."
And how one can be a "shill" without even mentioning the thing they're supposedly supporting.
By going anonymous and abusing the word "shill," YOU are the shill.

>>6341199

HATERS GONNA HATE

>>6341211
And then Cudder was a TLWikier.

>>6341244
Out of context or not, those sentences don't make sense.

>>6341244
The only context that these would be appropriate sentences for the English language is if the speaker was supposed to be a mental invalid.

>>6341268

Bump, so more people can talk about how shit the translation is.

>>6341421
The translation is shit.

lol, that shit's fucking horrible. This has to be a troll, seriously. Either that, or the the "translator" is just wasting his and everyone elses time with this project

>>6341421
I feel like you're violating the spirit of the rule, but I am a man of my word.

Also, not Atlasing this, eh?

This shit sounds like it's put together out of the CAPTCHA.

You fuckers will play this anyway, so quit bitching.

The early parts are definitely rough. It gets better later though.

>>6341480
>肉棒
What? Is this some kind of heuphamism for cock?

>>6341610
I hate you, you bastard. Since I should be asleep, a special reward. All these are from the same recently 'translated' script.

>Suddenly, we raise a voice and laugh at each other, and I tightly grasp the hand of Yui who was near.

>And, because only that was written.
>At the present moment, it's a holiday, and figures of students are entirely not seen in the school building.

And just think. This is only the worst of the worst. None of this reads like anything anybody would ever say. Even the few lines that are technically grammatically correct still lack such nuances as pronouns or understanding of the possessive. Stuff like "I reached toward Yuki and stroke the cheek" is endemic.

>>6341629
That's exactly what it is. Someone with a brain would translate 肉棒 as dick or cock or something similar.

>>6341610
>You fuckers will play this anyway, so quit bitching.
Most of those people who are bitching have either played or know enough Japanese to be able to play this.

>None of this reads like anything anybody would ever say. Even the few lines that are technically grammatically correct still lack such nuances as pronouns or understanding of the possessive.
Because it's a TRANSLATION, not a fucking rewrite. This is as close as you're going to get to the original text without knowing Japanese.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_and_formal_equivalence
>formal equivalence attempts to render the text word-for-word (if necessary, at the expense of natural expression in the target language).

>>6341651
It's translated as "meat stick" most of the time.

>>6341672
In which case they need not care about this, because this isn't a translation for them to read.

I don't know why anyone is bumping this thread the main translator is done for the month. Nothing is going on except trollage,

>

Someone asked for a contribution report.

>>6341723
You are simply darling. Do you come in a toy breed too?

Remember kiddos, every time you see a translator translate daisuki as "I love you", that's a rewrite!

>>6341961
It should be "like greatly" or "love greatly".

>>6341961
Are you upset?

>>6341723
>Because it's a TRANSLATION, not a fucking rewrite.

Please, please tell me you're a troll.

>>6341651

Or, if you want to keep the nuance of something meaty, you can just translate that as "sausage", since that's commonly used to refer to the netherregions of a man.

>This is as close as you're going to get to the original text without knowing Japanese.

Except:

a) The translation is so poorly done at times that it's difficult to understand what is going on.
b) Certain lines are just plain incorrect.

Remember, this is a novel. Readability is key. It adds to the enjoyment of the work. So, you have to write good English that flows well from one line to the next.

>>6342064
Hi rewrite artist. Still pissed that your "translation" wasn't acceptable regardless of how highly you rate your own skills?

>>6342091
Hi troll artist. Still pissed that your "argument" wasn't acceptable regardless of how highly you rate your own skills?

What the fuck people?

If you want this to be translated by someone else, go and do it yourself. Even if it's full of QUALITY at least he's doing shit. Go and translate this yourself, and blow him out of the water instead of flooding these threads about how shitty this will be. At least for some of us this will be readable, instead of moon runes everywhere.

>>6342164
This.

>>6342164
Indeed you speak with truth.

The thing is that we have.

There is much lulz here.
