Any thoughts on this Mangadex announcement? I hope you can continue your work with Youth Frontier 🥺
It's definitely worrisome... but we plan on continuing to TL Seishun Frontier no matter what. Chapters will go up on the 'Dex as long as possible, but in the event that the site goes down we have alternative hosting options and will look out for wherever the scanlation community moves to.
I don't have anything to ask, I just want to thank you for all your translations of anything WFM related, (Especially the chapter 1/2 of Seishun Frontier.) I don't usually use tumblr and am usually on discord instead. I let Ultraninja forward a message to you and the other person but I wanted to do it personally anyways.
You're very welcome! It always makes me happy to know when people are enjoying my TLs, so I appreciate the kind message. :>
I'm glad that the 3 groups could come together to collaborate. Proud of the work we did on the chapter and it'll be good for continuing to support the series with high-quality, timely releases.
Cheers~
thank you so so much for your youth frontier translation my friends and I were eagerly waiting for yours 🫶
Heck yeah, enjoy the chapter!
I actually joined up with other scanlators on this one (with me on SFX and typesetting duties) and we'll continue releasing the series as a group. Peep the credits at the end so you can send these talented folks the appreciation they deserve for their excellent work. :>
So much love for all the g witch translations you've done, for real 💙❤💙❤
Did you see about the new g witch manga coming out? Any chance that's something you'd be looking to translate at any point in the future?
Aw, thank you~ The series is near and dear to me, so I'm glad you like the translations.
I did see the manga announcement and I'm super excited! I'm definitely open to TLing any new G-Witch material... including the manga itself if official releases aren't timely or a group doesn't pick it up right away.
I enjoy all parts of the manga TL/editing process, but as a solo scanlator I wouldn't be the fastest releaser.
(at some point I swear I'll finish the other G-Witch TL projects I have in progress >.<)
Hey! I hope your week is going great :)
Like everyone else, i wanted to send you a heartfelt thank you for your immense efforts and time that you take out of your day to translate and type set these interviews and videos.
It always brightens my day when i get a notification from you and i know I’m in for a treat so it’s really truly appreciated from our end 🙏🏼
I was also wondering that when the asticassia school assembly BD comes out, if you could consider uploading it somewhere so that people who can’t purchase it would be able to watch it as well? I was really looking forward to seeing the VAs performance on stage and also some of the comedic moments like Suletta rapping but unfortunately, money is a bit tight for me right now. 😞
If you could consider it that would be awesome but if you rather not do jt, that’s totally fine as well :)
I also wanted to ask for your advice regarding learning japanese. I took some classes in college but haven’t kept up with it. Do you know any resources that you felt were really helpful to you when you were learning the language? I really want to dedicate myself to it this time! I’d really appreciate any tips, thank you! :)
Hey hey~ I actually got some fantastic news at work, so my week's off to a great start. :3
And you're very welcome! Thank you for enjoying and supporting my TLs.
I pre-ordered the School Assembly BD and am planning to subtitle it in parts, similarly to how I'm doing the Ep 24 Character Commentary… but for an upload of the full thing, I have to be more circumspect: I'll post when the rip is available and give contact info so interested folks can reach out directly. Just trying to avoid getting Eye of Sauron'd by Bandai-Namco, lol.
Regarding Japanese study: we're in similar boats! I also took classes in college and got back into serious self-study after not practicing for a while.
Here are some self-study resources I find useful:
For daily Japanese practice…
Renshuu for vocabulary and grammar. WaniKani for learning kanji. Ringotan for kana and kanji writing practice.
Renshuu is a site (also available in convenient app form) for building up vocabulary and grammar with quizzes, games, and community activities. It's by-and-large free - premium provides some enhancements (like more listening/pitch tools), but isn't necessary for most of the content. WaniKani is a fantastic resource for learning kanji. They use some truly memorable mnemonics to teach radicals/vocabulary and schedule lessons/reviews in a way that promotes real retention. Give Levels 1-3 a try since they're free, and if you like the teaching method, a lifetime premium sub is reasonably affordable when it goes on sale (like on Black Friday). I use Ringotan, a free phone app, to supplement WaniKani (which is focused on reading/recognition) with writing practice.
Other resources/tools...
Install Yomitan, an in-line dictionary extension, on your browser.
Dokusho Bookclub is a site for finding reading materials targeting specific JLPT levels.
Out of the many resources available on YouTube, I want to highlight Kaname Naito's channel - he teaches in depth vocabulary and grammar used in actual conversational Japanese.
I have a routine of always doing my "dailies" and just try to read/watch/play as much Japanese media as possible... Thankfully there's so much good stuff available online nowadays. :>
Hope you find something useful for you in this list. Good luck with your studies!
Do you plan on translating the gwitch season 2 vol 4 blu-ray drama CD? I heard that the one who has the characters commenting about the episodes is pretty interesting.
I'm planning to! Waiting on my order of the BD set to arrive though...
A few other people have also let me know that the character commentary in the volume 4 release is of interest, so it's already on my radar. 👍
hii just wanted to thank you for your TL work of gwitch's extra contentl :) i heard the drama cd that came out today was really good and im glad to see that youre gonna be translating it eventually!!
Hi hi! You're welcome! 😊
And yup, I'm excited to get my hands on the drama CD - the details being shared on Japanese SNS about it all sound great.
Looking forward to listening to and TLing it. 👍
Hello, I just wanted to thank you for translating the first episode of girls band cry !! Will you be continuing the series or was it just the one episode? No matter what, thank you for your work!!
Hi, you're welcome! :D
I'm not going to be doing any further episodes because thankfully a proper fansub group picked up the series: SobsPlease
They're doing an excellent job on all fronts - great TL, meticulously timed and well formatted. IMO their releases will be the best way to experience Girls Band Cry in English.
Though in the future I might TL some of the supplementary/promo material, since I'll definitely continue to watch and follow the show. 🤔
