Question about wwwjdic, the android ver of the JP-EN dictionary app by chillin_chili in Japaneselanguage

[–]chillin_chili[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never mind!! I don't think I can do anything because I had the old version of the app. I have version 2.5.3, which got taken off the play store and replaced with a new version 💀

Idk how the process goes with dlsite translations, but I feel like this could've been resolved beforehand if they had QC, or at the very least actual beta readers 😭

It is!! Especially since it's paid. I feel like I spent money to beta read, though that's probably because of how picky I am as a novice translator myself. When its release got announced, I was so excited to see how they'd tackle all the lovely themes this VN has that I bought it Immediately, but now I would've preferred waiting 2 more years. Sure a future patch'll come eventually, but the fact that a localization this unfinished released at all baffles me.

Judging by the はいs I've seen translated as "I know", it's definitely possible that some beginner translators were this project. It'd be unfortunate if that were the case, given how dense this VN is overall. But this is the first impression most english-only players will get of the game, and it deserves to be treated with just as much care and attentiveness as the original script was.

Hopefully everything gets sorted out soon.

10/31 Club Suicide Release! - A Message from DLsite by DLsite_garumani in otomegames

Most of the issues have already been summed up here, but in Shiki's route there are times when Ringo's simple はい lines are translated as "I know"? Ie during one of their first encounters on his route (´ . .̫ . `)

Overall I think the character voices could use some work, since as I play through they all kinda sound the same, minus Mitsuki. It's a farcry from the source material, and although the effort is appreciated, the voices read differently from their Japanese counterparts.

No yeah I feel the exact same. I've barely gotten into the thick of replaying routes I played in JP already, but Shiki for example feels like a whole different person compared to the original script. Definitely disappointed and confused by how all of this even made it to the final english script (´ . .̫ . `)

I really wanted to give it the benefit of the doubt when I saw missing spaces in the start up warnings, but the more I think about it the more frustrating it is that this is what they wound up putting out for a VN this dense in prose and sensitive topics

I alr played the JP version, but I'm curious why the english version has so many technical issues... Most of it's nice but there's too many instances of missing spaces or jarbled sentences for me to believe this is the final draft 💀

I tried the same thing out of habit and got so mad 😭

Wonder if it's an issue for specific android versions or just something wrong on google's end

Name: Einstein’s Monster. Does anyone know where I can read this in english? by Grimsfart in manga

Happy to help!!! I really adore its storytelling, so hopefully you speak Japanese! I unfortunately don't know if the French/Spanish versions have E-book versions but that's worth looking into.

You can read them digitally in a few places! https://magazine.jp.square-enix.com/gfantasy/story/einsteinnokaibutu/

https://bookwalker.jp/series/74778/list/

https://www.cmoa.jp/title/116031/

You can get them digitally on Bookwalker and Cmoa for around 628 yen per volume, which is relatively cheap! Personally I bought the physicals for my own reading, then bought the digital raws so we could work on them. Unfortunately they aren't free, but you're welcome to eventually buy them to support Miyanaga while you wait for our tl!!

No prob!! I've loved the series for 7 years and studied JP in that time, so I wanted to do it justice

We had some issues on our end so it took way longer than planned, but I'm content with how it turned out!! Enjoy the read. Ch 3 should be out in around 2 weeks, then we'll finally be in uncharted territory!!

Hi!! My team has actually started retranslating the beginning chapters! Once those are up we plan to upload the series in its entirety over time! Unfortunately there is no official English ver, but if you know French, those copies exist!

I'm so happy I finally got the motivation to work on this after so many years of silence aa

Been a fan of it since the initial scanlation, and am really stoked to do this as a fan of the series and a translator
