Important Announcement; Hoozuki no Reitetsu etc.
Hi all... it’s been ages. We’re all really sorry we haven’t been active, like, at all, for the past... years.
We’ve grown up and gotten responsibilities and change in priorities, so we just haven’t had the time and drive. Again, we’re really sorry (at least I am).
Hoozuki no Reitetsu was my main area of work, but seeing official translations are up to volume 8/9, it makes no sense to continue the series. Please support the industry and purchase their translations.
It of course hurts, but it was only to be expected. It’s a great series :)
I have little to no intention of picking up another series, and I haven’t been in contact with many of the other group members in months to years, Nabs included. There has been no fallout, no bad blood between us, nothing of that sort - people have just grown busy, and responsibilities and changing priorities happen to all of us, and so I guess we lost contact... it’s sad, but that’s life.
I remember when I contacted Nabs for the position as translator on HnR - I was so nervous, and so honoured to be accepted! It was awesome! We had so much fun in the group, and I learned a lot. When Nabs later appointed me co-administrator, I was equally honoured.
Anyway, it will probably only be a handful of people reading this, but I’ve really enjoyed the ride. This is not a goodbye-forever, but we also have to face it - HnR is being translated officially, and there is no point in us continuing.
I hope you all enjoyed the ride too, though my translations, especially in the beginning, were sub-par and I know things got reeeeeaaaaally slow at some point.
I also hope you’ve all been OK through the pandemic. Covid is practically non-existant in my country now, but I know others’ are still affected by it. The situation in Ukraine kind of stile the limelight (though I really wish it hadn’t).
All of this is just to say... I’ll still be reachable here, but we probably won’t be posting anything new. I doubt we’ll suddenly pick up work at some point, but I’ll leave the possibility open. Therefore, if you have any questions or comments, please reach out :)
Take care y’all! It’s been a blast!
