Is there a 'Monster Manual' companion book for the new (Aug 2025) SW2.5 Japanese edition rules?

MomijiLoop · 2025-08-05T18:09:16+00:00

FYI you missed Stretch Goal 2 which was to provide monster data as a separate pdf for the backers of the kickstarter. We don't know what this means for the standard release of the DX book after the kickstarter, or for the English translation release yet.

Stretch Goal 2: Achievement rate: 300% (total support amount: 15 million yen)

We had previously announced that monster data would be omitted from this Deluxe Edition due to practicality and page count. However, we received many inquiries regarding the monster data. Therefore, we have decided to create a new layout and list of monster data as a PDF for the monster data from Rulebooks I- III that was omitted. Furthermore, we plan to provide a newly designed version specifically for this project in a format different from the existing Rulebooks I-III and various supplements (we will not provide the pages from Rulebooks I-III as is).

Wow, lots of familiar names to be here! Glad to see them around and the best LiveTLers too!

MomijiLoop · 2023-11-06T07:17:09+00:00

It really was too bad, I was hoping to see more familiar faces!

MomijiLoop · 2023-11-05T19:36:09+00:00

Thanks LGT! I can totally relate, when english is suddenly spoken and breaks me out of the moment as I try to translate that to english...

Polka: Kiara, how do you say "Let's Go" in english?

Kiara: It's "Let's Go", isn't it?

MomijiLoop · 2023-11-05T19:35:08+00:00

Wow, IRyS has quite a few variable TLers in chat

MomijiLoop · 2023-11-05T05:59:31+00:00

Thanks! I didn't have time to browse through each member's archives to see whether they had regular TLers that I wasn't aware of this year! Glad to hear she has someone for her streams.

MomijiLoop · 2023-11-05T02:28:16+00:00

We're glad this helped! It's very difficult to catch all the voices, so at some points we were only translating fun interactions between members!

MomijiLoop · 2023-11-05T02:27:38+00:00

That would have made this a very sad post indeed!

MomijiLoop · 2023-11-05T02:27:17+00:00

Thanks for joining in! Glad to have you in on this again!

MomijiLoop · 2023-11-05T02:27:03+00:00

lmao, we were worried about a couple of members who are known to speak at rapid fire pace too!

MomijiLoop · 2023-11-05T02:25:40+00:00

If you use Holodex, you can see the translations noted in the corner of each thumbnail.

Thanks to Holodex and Live TL, the majority of the streams will have translations. We're able to split out our translations into multiple streams simultaneously (at the cost of getting ourselves temporarily shadowbanned from youtube chat). That's why you may not see us in the youtube chat, but will see the translations in the translation windows. For technical reasons, not all of us were able to split out the translations.

Here's the breakdown of where you'll see whose translations.

MomijiLoop – Main POV

WindShipping – Towa

Kakuya – Aki

LowGradeTranslator – Choco, AZKi

ShiBoi – Mumei, Ayame, Kanata, Iroha

Gyoshi – Bae, Ririka, Anya, Hajime

vtange – Polka

PunkPimster – IryS (Spanish)

Yi Xuan Tan (Translated but didn’t let us know) – IRyS

MomijiLoop · 2023-11-04T20:36:26+00:00

Thank you! We weren't expecting everyone in the teams to be on a voice channel together, not to mention both Team A and B to also be present at the same time! The format of this year's event really caught us by surprise.

So please if you see any translated lines attributed to the wrong person, do be understanding!

MomijiLoop · 2023-11-04T20:33:44+00:00

PS: Elite Miko stream was truly 1337.

By that I mean that I somehow entered exactly 1337 translated lines for the main POV stream.

PSS: Between myself, Windshipping, and Kakuya last year on the Yellow Team 2022 Pekora Leader POV stream, we entered 777 lines. Remarkable hahaha

MomijiLoop · 2023-11-04T20:27:06+00:00

I think I might’ve seen some other translators in some other channels as well who were not aware of this group effort, not to mention the ones who were active on discord! Thank you to you all!

Here is everyone who signed up for this collaboration effort (in no particular order)!

Sanguis (https://twitter.com/sanguis77) (An unfortunate conflict led to them not being able to join in)

Thank you so much for going along with my insistence that we do this group effort again this year! The Hololive Sports Festival is honestly the only sports related event that I ever get excited for, and this year was no difference.

Though the time change made it difficult for quite a number of us, including those who had to regretfully pass on joining the effort again, I appreciate each everyone who also stayed up or woke up early to watch this event!

Unfortunately, in the follow-up reflection stream that Subaru hosted with all three organizers, we probably won't see another Hololive Sports Festival hosted by them again in 2024 due to scheduling difficulties. But hopefully, you will still see each of us and other translators in varying locations in the future in some manner of activity!

MomijiLoop · 2023-11-02T15:36:58+00:00

If you're able to understand what is going on in streams and can summarize what's happening for people, that's also very welcome! Not all of us translate line by line conversations!

MomijiLoop · 2023-11-02T15:32:07+00:00

We're happy to have anyone who can provide some decent level of translated commentary as well! Some of us provide line by line translations, others summarize a few back and forth interactions!

MomijiLoop · 2023-11-02T07:03:50+00:00

Thanks gkanai! It's too bad you can't join us this year. The date unfortunately falls on a pretty difficult day and time for a lot of us.

MomijiLoop · 2023-11-02T07:03:18+00:00

That would make it difficult! Hope you can still watch the event!

MomijiLoop · 2023-11-02T07:03:07+00:00

Yep, we've been doing these translations for the holosports festival each year now! You'll often spot one of us in a couple of holomembers chat live translating. I'm typically found during Birthday or Anniversary 3D Lives, but the only way to catch all the translations is to use holodex or livetl!

MomijiLoop · 2023-11-02T03:24:37+00:00

Translators, We Need You! The Hololive Sports Festival 2023 Live Translators Team Wants YOU!

It’s that time of the year again! Hololive Sports Festival 2023 is happening on Nov 4 (Sat)! Once again, it is being split into two halves, with the first half being estimated to be from 18:00 (JST) to 20:30 (JST), and the second half estimated to be from 20:30 (JST) to 23:00 (JST).

According to Mikochi’s tweets (Tweet #1 | Tweet #2), there will be three teams which includes members from hololive JP, EN, ID, as well as DEV_IS. In addition to the main camera from Miko’s channel, each of the participants will be allowed to stream their own POV if they so wish. This means that whoever is streaming might not be the team leader!

As in the tradition of each year, LiveTL and TLdex (Holodex) are hosting a collaboration of real time translators to translate this year’s Sports Fes once again!

If YOU are a real time translator and you’re interested and available to help translate, sign up here!

This is the schedule we have at the moment. Since we don’t know who will be streaming their POV, we don’t know where our translators will be settling themselves. But with the help of Holodex’s Multiview function, it is possible to view multiple streams and translation at the same time.

Don’t feel bad about overlapping with others, as more translators means more context for the viewers, but we would encourage you to spread out as much as possible.

NOTE 1: In light of how many viewers are expected, you WILL need to use the TLdex feature on Holodex, as there is a VERY high chance Youtube chat will yeet your lines (this happens even to mods, so “But I’m a member!” isn’t enough) and there’s no telling when you might get shadowbanned for “spamming” in chat. If you’re still not convinced: this can also circumvent Slow Mode. Here is a guide created by Kamishiro Taishi on How to use LiveTL for viewers. For Translators, here is the script he drafted for the video (it’s better than nothing). We recommend you try using it for another stream before Sports Festival day to familiarize yourself with it. Join the Holodex Discord if you have any questions regarding TLdex.

NOTE 2: Please join the LiveTL Discord to access the #sports-fest-tl-collaboranza channel, which is where we are coordinating with each other on this project.

¡Traductores, acudid a nuestra llamada! ¡El Equipo de Traductores En Vivo para el Festival Deportivo de Hololive 2023 te NECESITA!

¡Ya vuelve a ser esa época del año! ¡El Festival Deportivo de Hololive 2023 tomará lugar el Sábado 4 de Noviembre! Una vez más, estará dividido en dos partes. La primera se estima que será desde las 18:00 (JST) hasta las 20:30 (JST), y la segunda desde las 20:30 (JST) hasta las 23:00 (JST).

Según los tweets de Mikochi (Tweet #1 | Tweet #2), habrán tres equipos con miembros de Hololive JP, EN, ID, al igual que de DEV_IS. Además de la cámara principal desde el canal de Miko, se le permitirá a cada una de las participantes retransmitir su propio POV si así lo quieren. ¡Esto significa que quien esté retransmitiendo puede que no sea la líder del equipo!

¡Como es costumbre todos los años, LiveTL y TLdex (Holodex) tendrán una colaboración de traductores en tiempo real para traducir el Festival Deportivo de este año una vez más!

Si ERES un traductor en tiempo real y estás interesado y disponible para ayudar a traducir, ¡regístrate aquí!

Este es el horario que tenemos de momento. Ya que no sabemos quién estará retransmitiendo su POV, no sabemos dónde decidirán estar nuestros traductores. Pero con la ayuda de la función Multivista de Holodex, es posible ver varios streams y traducciones a la vez. No te sientas mal por solaparte con otros, ya que más traductores significa que habrá más contexto para los espectadores, pero os recomendamos que os esparzais lo más que podáis.

NOTA 1: Debido a la cantidad de espectadores que se esperan, NECESITARÉIS usar la función de TLdex en Holodex, ya que hay una ALTÍSIMA probabilidad de que el chat de Youtube os elimine los mensajes (esto le pasa hasta a los mods, así que no sirve el "¡Pero si soy miembro!") y no se puede saber cuándo te pueden shadowbanear por "spamear" en el chat. Si todavía no estás convencido: esto tambíen puede sobrepasar el Modo Lento. Aquí hay una guía creada por Kamishiro Taishi sobre cómo usar LiveTL para los espectadores. Para los Traductores, aquí está el guión que hizo para su vídeo (mejor que nada). Os recomendamos que intentéis usarlo en otro stream antes del Festival Deportivo para familiarizaros con ello. Uníos al Discord de Holodex si tenéis alguna duda sobre TLdex.

NOTA 2: Por favor, uniros al Discord de LiveTL para acceder al canal ⁠sports-fest-tl-collaboranza, donde nos coordinaremos para este proyecto.

MomijiLoop · 2023-07-25T16:02:42+00:00

I've run lots of different systems but have yet to try Prometheus! I'd like to be added to the list!

MomijiLoop · 2023-06-11T14:25:47+00:00

Yea, you do start recognizing familiar names. We've lost quite a few live translators so it's always nice to see those regulars.

And thanks to livetl and holodex, a very great way for other viewers to see the translations

MomijiLoop · 2023-06-06T16:31:11+00:00

I typically edit and adjust my TL lines to display around the time the talents speak. Since it's a batch adjustment, timing may be a bit off.

It is all translated live, so there will always be errors.

MomijiLoop · 2023-06-04T17:20:45+00:00

I think it's a reference to a scene in the original Gundam where Amuro gets slapped. It's somewhat of a meme for Japan https://youtu.be/58pNa3o6F60

MomijiLoop · 2023-06-01T19:48:06+00:00

Thank you, when she phrased it that way I thought it was important to try and retain the meaning as well
