VN Translation Status (25/1/2015)

I blame Love Live for not being late this week. Watched the first episode yestoday and it’s not actually terrible. Though that 3D work at the end… bit too conspicuous.

Moderately obnoxious reminder: if you want your updates fast (usually, unless I couldn’t be arsed for a day or two), the new official fuwanovel twitter has you covered. Anything I’m too lazy to cover here will be there. I’ll note that other people do have access as well, so not all of the tweets are mine. Just most of them.

This is more or less a copy of a post the user VNTS does on 4chan’s /jp/ board weekly, with some edits, potential additional entries and such. Entries in green have progressed since last week; this week, we saw progress on 14 projects.

Is Fata Morgana long, or is the TL just slow? …meanwhile, holy meow KnS2 translation is moving at breakneck speed right now. Editing is likely to be much faster than the usual pace in Fan TL which isn’t necessarily higher than translation speed (note: generalization), so we might actually see it decently soon.

World End Economica was previously slated for a December 2014 release, I believe dovac said something about Murphy’s Law having become manifest when it comes to that project. Kouryuu had finally finished the first third of DCIII, which is more of an achievement than you’d think since it’s a ~4mb (approximately double usual length) length VN. Aokana might get dropped because the translator got hired by Sekai Project and he seems to also be working on Clover Day’s still? …well, it’s not impossible that he was actually hired to do that one. If you’re interested in translating Aokana yourself, you can contact OriginalRun at the project’s blog or just PM him on the forums (he got renamed OriginalRen there by a trolling admin I’m definitely telling the truth here, yup).

Writer of irreverent VNTS commentaries, shadowy Fuwanovel string puller, Swedish, ambivalent toward meatballs. Brave Fuwanovel Skype Group memeber (rip), technically a reviewer, chronic everything staller. I am all these things and more, but mostly I'm really lazy. Loves yuri, reading, chocolate, and quality sugar-free colas. Hates VNs with too many choices and long walks on the beach.

It’s always surprising when you’re on time…

Biggest BL news is that No Thank You will probably gain a release date this week, so… Keep refreshing your twitter/tumblr homes, I guess. http://mangagamerstaff.tumblr.com/post/108984602684/i-just-discovered-you-guys-through-a-post-about
I’ve also been following the translator’s twitter and it looks generally hilarious (the demo was pretty funny, too). Definitely something to look forward to for fujoshi VN fans. And maybe non-fujoshi vn fans that don’t mind BL…
