The Short Epilogue and... WHY ON EARTH IS AFTERWORD NINE PAGES LONG?!

AMA_v13_CoverThe post title says it all. The size of this afterword is the greatest mystery ever since resolving the secret of Haunted being a ctuhlu sorcerer, contracted to elder god(s) (seriously).

So yeah. Contrary to all expectations I HATH FINISHED volume 12 before volume 13 is out! *clapclapclap*.

Well then, volume 13 is coming out today, and I'll be getting it today. And I'll be reading it today, can't wait to see how it ends... Although, according to author, the Another Mission 2 is going to have a short story of what happens afterwards, so that'll be nice too (Lapis wins Takerubowl YAAY).

So, links here: Epilogue, Afterword, Full Text.

Make sure to support the author and publisher by purchasing the books in original language, and official adaptation if available at any point in the future.

Edit: Volume 13 is out and I have finished reading it already. Now... I need time to get over it.

Happy en... NOPE, not happening.

AMA_v12_227HELLO WORLD.

Right, I rushed this chapter considering next volume is coming in a day and a half. Don't want to be behind more than one volume on anything.

Before I drop down link here, let me say this: really, Haunted? REALLY?

And now, we proceed to the link.

PS: I'll be getting busy again, but I'll probably drop epilogue and afterword if I open free time. And then maybe some OSO.

PS2: Make sure to support the author, buy the books. Don't be leechers.

Goodbye, Alucard.

AMA_v12_185So yeah, a chapter release.

Nothing really I have to say, as such I'll move straight on to the link.

Make sure to support the author and the publisher by purchasing the books - even in original language. They deserve payment for their work.

PS: The shit hits the fan in the next (Iast) chapter of the volume, tune in next time, chaps!

A little special double release? Bring me to laifu!

OSO_v09_123So, I've been busy and still am busy, but I've been translating stuff in free moments - one, two hours a day. So yeah, the release schedule is shit, but progressing.

To start with OSO and the fluffy stuff - like always, lots of cute and fun. As usual humanity learns a lot by observing wild creatures... in this case it's a wild... well, a wild elfu.

So the chapter link for OSO vol 9 chapter 3.

 

And also the second of the double release, leading us to...

The second and more important part of the post. Yeah. As you might have noticed since it's come back to the menu bar... Antimagic is back, yes. So, why is it back when I took it down over a half a year ago? Well, that's fairly simple considering I said I will be looking out towards what's happening and consider bringing it back in the future.

Situation has changed a lot since then. Anime was shit, the second manga serialization was axed... this time even earlier - at volume 2. There was no license announcement and it seems highly unlikely there will be one considering how other mediums from the franchise have fared. The novel's main story ends with the next volume that comes out in less than two weeks.

Considering all those points I've been slowly working on it for a while now (but you already know that, as if I hadn't made it obvious enough), but I decided to wait with real bringing it back to the blog until anime-expo ends (yen press licenses and stuff, y'know), and there was nothing.

It's a big shame the guy who ninja translated it wasn't a prince on white horse or a good fairy, huh? Well, you can always buy me a white horse and I'll play the prince, but I can't become a good fairy. I think I can't, that is.

In any case, antimagic is back. I will continue translating it, but I will take it down if it gets licensed or I get a direct dmca.

PS: Oh right, I've nearly forgotten. volume 13 isn't the end of antimagic releases. There's still Another Mission 2 volume coming out next month (thanks melody for dropping the tip).

PS2: All volumes received a slight re-edit (mostly automatic) removing furigana and moving stuff into glossary under chapters. Also British English was changed into American English (feedback welcome). I hope I didn't break too much since part of the process was automatic.

Current Status Update. Not-a-Release.

AMA_v12_CoverConsidering it's been a while since I made any post at all (nearly 2 months now), I thought it's about time I updated people interested in translations on situation. I mean, the comments get more ridiculous lately, peoples' imagination is a terrifying thing.

Well, there isn't anything dramatic happening, really. I didn't retire and I didn't drop OSO. I'm just being busy with work of which there is a really considerable amount, and thus I don't have time to translate. I'll be back to translating OSO once I have time again. That's about it.

By the way, AntiMagic 12 comes out in a few days, the HQ cover appeared and it looks so damn good (on the right). No, I'm not going to pick it back up for the time being, but I'll buy and read it on the release day so I might drop some spoilers on the irc channel, I am a super-fan of the series regardless of whether I translate it or not y'know. Below, there's the translated summary for the volume.

And as the twilight descends upon the world...

The 35th platoon is separated by Kiseki, and as the world is eroded by her, Sougetsu brandishes Innocentius. In this hopeless situation, the platoon members continue to fight so that Takeru's wish comes true. And, Lapis once again...

Yes yes, ikr "why did you bitch out!". Again, it's against my policy to translate something against wishes of the original publisher, especially that it might get picked up, that's one. Also, I don't want any problems and I don't want to make problems for the guy who's hosting this blog either, that's two. So for the time being it's wait-and-see.

Anyway, basically, the current situation is "I'll be back!". Once I have time again, I'll pick translations back up.
