This partial patch include complete translations for The Common, Karen, Mirai, Shizuku, and Nagisa paths (girls listed in TL's subjective order of 'goodness'), with a final patch that includes Misaki being released in the coming months.

Overall TL progress is 79.563% of ~ 27k lines.

Technically TL hasn't actually read the path yet (TLing as they're read), but from reactions in common: 'absolute worst'.

That said, it'll be difficult to contend with Nagisa's path, because PeasSoft -really- dropped the ball on it.

Haruka is just your average high school student idly coasting through his life. His mornings generally start with a a delivery from his childhood friend and neighbor Mirai, who has an inexplicable hate for him. His daily commute is interrupted by the cheerful and forever-in-love Nagisa, who never misses an opportunity to profess her undying love for him. At school he spends time with his good friend Ikuya, a bit of a pervy moron, often finding himself in trouble with his mature yet cute Sensei Shizuku.

His lazy days continue on and on, until until a chance encounter with a mysterious pot changes his life forever. ジャッジャーン！ Haruka has summoned Karen, his very own Cupid! How will his life ever return to normal?!


Overall, if I have to give a label to Koiiro, I would say it's 'generic moege'. There's ero, but definitely not a nukige. I think the guy who rated it on VNDB expected bunny fetish, but it's really not (will they ever explain the ears? Only reading will tell). I'd personally give it a 6; Nagisa notwithstanding the paths haven't been too bad.

>>12037571
Well, to give some perspective: the reason we chose this game was as a proof-of-concept. Do we really have what it takes to TL a game? Can we devote the time and effort into making a good patch?
The TL described that method as 'more fun'; akin to picking up a random book and reading it. It's not something like remember11, so you won't have to worry about interlocked time shenanigans or such.
There're some much larger titles on the TL's horizon, ones which -have- been read through first. But we wanted to make sure we understood things from a TL group's perspective before we went on to those. Walk before you run and all.

you can unrar the game while keeping the broken files - it's the vo.xp3. So probably the game will crash at some point, or won't play the voices.
In the meantime wait for a non broken file.

[Anonymous No.]

>>12038360
How in the fuck is that a horrible idea? No seriously. There is no basis behind it being a terrible idea.

If you actually have the Japanese knowledge you would be able to read over it quickly so it's not going to extend the project an extra bunch of months. If you yourself don't really enjoy it chances are you aren't going to go the extra mile to make sure it's accurate.

Which leads into "Your first translation shouldn't be an avant garde masterpiece." pure excuse for doing a shit job.

[Anonymous No.]

>>12038430
It gives them an idea of what they need to focus/improve on, which aspects were hard to manage, how many people they would need, etc. Sure, the resulting patch might not be top quality. It might not even be good at all, I don't know. But that's fine, since it gives them essential pointers for their future releases, and some people might enjoy their first patch even if it's unpolished.

That's why a generic moege is a good choice for a first TL. It's smarter than to try your hand at something like SubaHibi, struggle for 2 years because you don't want to ruin a game like this, get discouraged and not release anything in the end. I'm totally not thinking of anyone in particular by the way.

[Anonymous No.]

>>12038451
I believe you are confused. You can still learn what needs to be done having read the thing before hand, with the added benefit of not getting confused over any context details.

And it just occurred to me you were talking about the game being a masterpiece not the translation. So I take back that last part. I agree your first translation shouldn't be of a really hard game but there are plenty of moege that are fun as heck while still being simple.

So, you should still only work on games you really enjoyed unless your bar for really enjoyed is too high.

>I have no idea why it doesn't like the voice files though.

No, the problem is that the torrent with zip archive is at 99,8%, one 2MB part is missing. You can still extract the files, but the vo.xp3 will be corrupted (thanks to the missing 2MB)

thanks in advance for uploading a proper vo.xp3 file

[Anonymous No.]

>>12038548

I'm the anon who made the .zip torrent.

It's a complete game on my end, runs with (and without) the patch and everything. I literally just threw the game into a .zip and made a torrent of it. I can only guess it somehow got corrupted when zipped but didn't tell me when it made the archive? I tried decompressing the archive when I saw what was happening but it doesn't seem to make a difference; I really have no idea why.

But anyways, this voice file is the raw vo.xp3, so we shouldn't have to deal with any shenanigans.

1000 is about what mangagamer averages for their bigger titles, 2000 is more the a lucky number to hit for them. I think if you factor in hardcopies\consales they might have that have a few that have gotten near 3000.

It's a pretty good showing in comparison to mangagamer's porn peddling, but steins;gate is aiming at the same market that buys stuff like Aksys's SC advs, which managed to sell about 10kgiveortake each in the west. Granted it's still got a few months of selling power, so it might get up there.

But the first part was always foreshadowing the second. It needed a future arc though and it needed to expand on relationships a bit more.. I just finished and felt... it was still not enough or short even though it was a 50 hour game. it could of been longer. Also didn't you feel that besides there being no future arc, there was nothing really with sern in the end or no final confrontation?

Fuck that opinion. I'm happy to see a translation for a random short game like this. First of all we can make sure the translation group is actually any good and reliable without them potentially ruining a masterpiece like Baldr Sky or Totono or something, and second it's a translation for a fun thing that might have been overlooked because of the pretentious idiots that are like "Fuck you, only translate real deal VNs like code 18". We wouldn't have so many unfinished translations of good games if more groups had good policies like this.

And maybe because i was reading a game a lot but it felt too short or fast for me, felt like there could of been more character development, even more so with okarin and chrisu since she was the love interest.

I mean ps3 is not aloud any more new games after 2016 or something. Maybe they will actually do ports of R;N and this steins gate game since they are becoming popular in the west and jastusa might make new deals with them.

Are you mentally challenged?
"Game you read and enjoyed" is not same as "real deal", "masterpiece" or other shit you are talking about. Its just something translator enjoyed himself, and could be short moege for all I care.
Its hard to work on shit you don't like. Its harder to work on shit you didn't read before.
Starting "translation" before reading game is just showing fuwanovel-level of incompetency.
> group
And this is second sign that you have no fucking idea what are you talking about. There are no "groups" in VN translations. Either there is translator who does all the job of translating, or there's bunch of retards who will inevitably drop project after month of two. All other people except translator are replaceable cogs which you can find anywhere a dozen per dime.
Ammy is nothing but Ixrec, all other staff varies across projects.
Seiha is nothing but Aroduc, and so on.

I think it's more likely that they'll just start making games for the new consoles when that time comes.

Anyway, I think the best-case scenario is that 5pb. will work with an actual console localization company (like Aksys, XSEED, etc) if they think that the series is viable in the west. I trust JAST about as far as I can throw Gunvarrel, as far as actually releasing things in a timely manner is concerned.

Despite their big names selling well more than mangagamer's titles, JAST seems to be doing less instead of more. I'm pretty sure Peter Payne isn't really interested in contracting translators to work on new titles over grabbing fantranslations. As someone above said, the best outcome you can really hope for here is 5pd seeing decent sales and deciding to work with a real localization outfit like xseed or aksys.

Though for all the shit they get, Mangagamer seems to turn most of the money they make immediately into contracting new translators to translate more shitty porn. Their expansion is undeniable on that front.

No definitive proof, but there is circumstantial evidence suggesting that in all likelihood the translation is bad:

-Nobody has heard of the translation team before. They seem to have no previous experience.

-The translator is translating as they read. Experience with previous projects leads us to believe this is detrimental to the quality of the translation, and implies a lack of enthusiasm about the game.

-The team does not seem enthusiastic about the game. This means they have less motivation to deliver a good translation than teams that want to get one of their favorite games to the target audience in as good a manner as possible.

With these factors, the scale is clearly weighted towards 'bad translation'. Evidence of 'good translation' is required to balance it out; until then, it is reasonable to assume it is a bad translation.

ギャー！ is most definitely not 'ahhh~', it's more like 'ahh!'. Which makes a lot more sense when you consider the sentence following it seems to translate to 'I'm being crushed by beautiful girls!'. I have no idea where the translator got that 'fantastic' from.

The rest seems similarly off, but I can't say for sure since I can't really translate them correctly myself either.

Speaking of bad translations, I've been thinking...

Is it truly worse to use an edited version of a machine translation compared to what a "legitimate" translator who is downright terrible puts out? There are plenty of terrible translators who can put out work that ends up being worse than machine translations, at least with the machine you generally get some sort of idea what the line said. With a terrible translator, you never know what they're going to claim it says.

This makes me wonder if we are too critical on machine edits. Machine translations suck, there is no denying it, but are they truly that much worse than some of the "legitimate" translations that have been put out by living translators?

[Anonymous No.]

You're probably operating under the assumption that you can piece the meaning out if you use a bunch like TA or ChiiTrans does, but that's a really bad assumption. If you go into a kindergarten class and ask them all where babies come from, you might be able to get some kind of common consensus, but what are your bets that that's going to be correct?

Japanese is a topic prominent language. That means that the subjects of sentences can (and often are) omitted. 大好き (daisuki) can just as easily mean "I love you" as it can "They love cock" if it was prefaced by something like 女性はチンポが好きですか? Japanese to English translators just guess at what the subjects are supposed to be and are very frequently wrong.

And this is without even touching on things like slang. ja nai is both a negative and a rhetorical depending on context, and again, machines suck dick at context.

Generally the machine TL wouldn't be the one-stop shop for a release, the text would be then doctored up for "artistic style" or "flow" or what have you.

The problem really isn't with what does the TL (whether human or machine), the problem is that the TL is wrong. And then that shit flows down hill, to the editor (who assumes the TL is correct) then does his job correctly and you would only really notice when you read through a couple segments and they contradict each other, don't make sense, or (the obvious one that even EOPs can find) don't match what the voice just fucking said because the TL, editor, etc. never bothered to do anything more than read the script from the text file and the QC read the entire novel holding down ctrl.

>>12043661
Be careful about deciding that a line is "obviously wrong" if you don't know much Japanese. When trying to capture the author's intent, very often you'll end up with translations that bear little resemblance to the original, and might "look" wrong to someone who doesn't know better.

Naturally, there are plenty of cases where the translation is actually wrong and the translator doesn't know what the fuck they're doing. That much is obvious. I just wanted to make the point that translation is complicated, and you can't always rely on "But that's not what the voiced line said!" as an indicator of whether the translation is accurate or not.

[Anonymous No.]

>>12043718
Nobody expects translations to be equivalent to the original though. We accept an inferior version because it's all we're capable of consuming at the moment.

Though honestly I went back and reread a lot of games that I'd read with poor translations later after learning Japanese, and was surprised with how much they were pretty much exactly like I remembered. I think the extent a bad translation can ruin a VN is seriously overstated. You can post individual lines and people will think "holy shit how can you even read that" but it's sort of like posting screenshots of some shitty anime stream or something. Yeah it looks like obvious dogshit but when you immerse yourself in it and watch it in motion you don't really notice after a while, and you never notice to the extent that is obvious in still frames.

MTL is worse in terms that whenever its output resembles "good" translation, actually its not (it got grammar incorrectly and significantly altered meaning of sentence).
As for "terrible translators", you really shouldn't call someone who doesn't even know N5-level stuff a "translator", he is not. Otherwise he is better than machine, at least he shouldn't be confused about double-negatives and usage of verb+な.

> It's not completely literal, but it gets the intent of the line across (that our MC is enjoying his "plight"

Yes, that is what's going on in the scene, and what I (TL currently speaking) intended (literal translations are often inaccurate).

Having someone 'happily fret over their situation' is not quite as common in a Eastern audience as it is in a Japanese one, so I added the 'fantastic' to help cue the reader into what was going on (with the assumption that the audience has only a minimal understanding of Japanese culture). A pertinent task of translating is to convey concepts which are 'stock phrases' or 'stock situations' in one culture but not another; a skill that is mastered by great translators.

I do, of course, know better than to get involved in the TL arguments in VNTS so I won't post much else on the subject here, but as for the 'TL as I go' method used on this particular game:

Consider reading a beach-side romance novel in your native language (let's pick Twilight or 50 Shades of Grey). You should not need to read the book twice to understand what's going on. I can assure you that Koiiro is not a 'deep philosophical' story and doesn't warrant that level of attention. Were this Ever17 or similar, it would be a different matter. Either way, I will continue striving to do a good job regardless of what I may think of the game or any particular character's route.

Sorry, but
"Gyaaaah! I'm being crushed by beautiful girls!"

"Ahhh～. Being crushed by beauties is fantastic～!"

You turned something that's a scream in the original into a sigh of pleasure. I'm not picky on literal meaning, but that's misrepresenting the tone of the line.

The fact that the MC is "enjoying his plight" is adequately conveyed by every other line in the passage and doesn't justify rewriting this one.

It does. If I'm not mistaken, this part is a dream sequence. If it were literally translated, it sounds like the happy dream turns into a bizarre nightmare. According to the translator, this is not the case, and he sounds convincing enough to me.

"If it were translated" at all. The line posted is a rewrite, not a translation. The translator has completely ignored the tone of the original to impose what he thinks the guy should have written.

If one REALLY wanted to be literal, you could probably go with "Whoa*! I'm being crushed beneath beautiful girls!"

>The translator has completely ignored the tone of the original to impose what he thinks the guy should have written.
If what he said in >>12043836 says is correct, he ignored the literal meaning of the phrase in favor of properly conveying the tone of the phrase. 'Aaah! I'm being crushed by pretty girls!' does not sound positive to us, but it apparently does sound positive to a Japanese person reading it in Japanese. If what he says is true, then his "rewrite" is a better translation than the literal alternative, because the literal version makes me misunderstand the line completely while the "rewrite" makes me understand the original intention.

[Anonymous No.]

>>12044647
Actually, the Japanese line itself can be interpreted both ways (positive and negative) by itself, but because of the context and the word "beautiful" girls, we know he is enjoying it. Similarly, "Whoa! I'm being swarmed by beautiful girls!" will result in the reader interpreting it has a positive experience as long as he is not retarded. Here, there's another level of translation here - that readers of both language will require inference (albeit trivial) to know that the main character is enjoying himself.

>did any of them use machine translation?
Neither translation were started and completed by the same group.

Project #1 (Gao Gao) originated on TLWiki, where it received a combination of good translation and bad translation (including some machine translation). After that, it went through several groups, some of which used machine translation. Finally, it was picked up by the current group, which seems to translate properly. They are using a combination of newly-translated scripts and (partially?) fixed up scripts from the previous projects.

Project #2 (Winter Confetti) originated when people got fed up with project #1 endlessly remaining in translation limbo with a large chance of becoming shit even if completed. Although the start is kinda complicated, nothing actually got translated until Edger (a proper translator; translated Canvas2 and Yoake) picked it up. Eventually Edger got a life and quit the community, abandoning the project, and Sheeta picked it up. Sheeta is an inexperienced translator but has a lot of experience with TL projects as an editor. Ixrec did translation checking and translated part of it. No machine translation was ever used in the history of this project, but it is someone's first translation.

Why is an MG translator of all people making fun of her translation? Don't they have some shitty nukige they should be working on?

Neither.
First one has several MTL-ed scripts, inherited from old project.
Second has sheeta and ixwreck. Sheeta never actually studied japanese, and only exposure she had to it is ixwrecks "translations".
>>12049859 is quite good digest, both translations are wrong as fuck and cringeworthy.

>playing demonion for plot and gameplay
Aroduc sure has weird tastes. First game had really brilliant porn, and we need more of that.
Didn't play trial, sad that they ruined protag and made him pussy, Astraross-sama was great.

Even my noob nihongo can see Sheeta's is total shit. That looks like a cleaned up machine tl

The cowteats one seems more or less correct except for the first sentence where I don't know what the hell's going on, but I'm pretty sure neither of those is right(We of until now-wa not risk trouble, die-te came, whatever this shit is it's beyond me)

Is Air even a decent game? I remember watching the anime nearly a decade ago and I thought it was shit. I wonder if the game is any better, at least I don't think it's another 100+ hour grind fest like modern Key games. I said that I'd never subject myself to another Key game after I dealt with Little Busters...but I dunno.
