Nothing much to say here, so I’ll keep it brief. This is a doujin about the high school life of the Touhou girls, or some of them anyway. It’s in standard 4-koma form. I liked this artist’s style, so I decided to translate it. That’s about it. I hope this one, unlike my other attempt at typesetting, actually ends up going well.

Also, for anyone who didn’t know, Shi-Ki has been releasing the chapters of “Ai is a Japanese Cursed Doll.” You’ll find their typesetting and editing much better than mine.

Without further ado! download.

It seems some Scottish fans of the Gyakuten Saiban series have decided to take it upon themselves to reproduce “Rise from the Ashes”, the last case in the DS version of the first game, as series of youtube videos. The whole thing is really quite amusing, especially given how the person playing Ema Skye talks in monotone.

The first video is here.

Yea, it’s finally done. This could have come out a lot sooner, but I happened to get really really busy for the past couple of months. Big thanks to Kaиe for providing doing the cleaning and T1 for all of his help. I believe both of them are from Shi-Ki.

If you two are reading, sorry that I got out of contact with you guys. I turned out to not be so free this semester (classes became pretty hard and stuff.) I’m sorry if you had finished the typesetting for chapter 2, T1, I just went ahead and put some stuff in tonight. If you actually finished, you can replace my (probably XD) horrible things with yours.

Anyway, here is chapter 2!!!

Btw, if anyone places EUIII, the demo for Heir to the Throne has been out for a week or so.

So expect a release soon (as soon as I talk to the right people.) Sorry it took so long. I’ve been busy with school starting amongst other things (I admit, Blazblue is also a culprit.)

Well, I took the effort of taking these pictures, so I might as well post them here. Most of you have probably already seen pictures of this enormous statue, though. If you haven’t, well, you can see them after the jump.

(more…)

and translating, apparently… Or any real work … Yay for the ultra-time-consuming Europa Universalis III…

I was going to post pictures I took of the Gundam statue, but I figure that you guys have already seen pictures of that on other websites, probably taken with a better camera. Perhaps I should post pictures of the shrines and temples in Kamakura and Enoshima, instead.

I’m finally done with the first chapter of this manga. It took me quite a while, mainly because I was busy doing other things like work and games. And I was lazy. But I finally did it.
Here it is: Chapter 1

I still have to apologize for page 8 (although, it does sound better than it did before.) Also, some of the English, at least for the parts where they speak in broken sentences, is kinda odd. Maybe I’ll get better at finding better English equivalents the more that I do this.

In other news, I’m no longer in Japan. I’m back in the States. Started playing BlazBlue recently. Will probably start playing Mana Khemia 2 pretty soon.

The OP for P3P was posted not too long ago. I think it differs from the style of P3, P3:Fes, and P4 quite a bit, both in musical choice and visuals. A lot of people seem to hate it, but I think it’s growing on me.

The OP keeps on mentioning a butterfly effect. That, with some of the delayed mirrored images, may suggest some subtle changes in the female version of the story? Maybe, some of the big events are slightly altered due to the protagonists actions in the male story? Who knows.

Perhaps it was for the best that America is only getting a DD version of Agarest Senki instead of a retail version. Currently, Ghostlight, the company responsible for localizing Agarest Senki for the UK, is supposedly deciding between a couple of potential boxarts. They are below.

I’d say the first one is a sure win for this competition. Such creativity hasn’t been seen since the boxart for the first Megaman game.

“Today, I was smart,” I told myself. “I arrived at 10 am. There’s no way that things will be sold out by the time I get there,” I thought. By the time I got to Fujitsubo Machine’s booth, at 10:40, everything was gone. 40 minutes after opening. Surely, I can be accused of underestimate Comiket once again. I find it interesting that I got in faster today, though. Anyway, below are the promised cosplay pics.

I’ve learned a valuable lesson today: never underestimate Comiket. Today, I arrived at 12 pm, just like yesterday. What greeted me, however, was not almost instant access into Big Sight, but about an hour of waiting. Thereafter, I made the poor choice of waiting in line for Pixel Phantom’s doujin for 40 minutes, which ended when they sold out. *sad panda*. I think the cosplay was worse today, but there are still some good ones.

Much much to say for this one. The title pretty much says everything. I apologize for the various hands and arms in these shots.

I went to the cosplay section twice during the stay. Interesting fact: I was interviewed by some local news station, I think. I think they were called New Zero I guess they have an hour block on Channel 4 or something.
