VN Translation Status (8/3/2015)

I blame Clephas’ review of Looseboy’s (Sharin no Kuni, G-Senjou no Maou) new VN Bokusen for being on time this week. It makes sense.

Moderately obnoxious reminder: if you want your updates fast (usually, unless I couldn’t be arsed for a day or two), the official Fuwanovel twitter has you covered. Anything I’m too lazy to cover here will be there as well. I’ll note that other people do have access as well, so not all of the tweets are mine. Just most of them.

This is more or less a copy of a post the user VNTS does on 4chan’s /jp/ board weekly, with some edits, potential additional entries and such. Entries in green have progressed since last week; this week, we saw progress on 13 projects and… negative progress on Starless. Good old JAST time, though it’s a nukige so I mostly just find it funny.

Alright people, time to place your bets on whether Hanachirasu comes out on time.

Lovely x Cation seems to be actually moving (maybe I just wasn’t looking before?), Koiken Otome’s editing is following translation at a decent pace it seems, Kara no Shoujo 2 could be out surprisingly fast (Evangile is set to be released late this month so I’d guess April in that case?).

OZMAFIA!! now leads the exclamation mark category, its glorious senpai No, Thank You!!! having left the not-being-released building.

No Subahibi progress, no LB!EX progress, Kouryuu thinks he’ll finish Da Capo III this year, Majikoi team hasn’t even heard from JAST so calm your tits already.

Dates are hard, so I thiiiink Sweet Pool updated. Proofreading = 96% done.

I must say I’m now at a loss as to what to be hype at. Ozmafia isn’t as interesting to me as NTY is…. and I don’t know if I should join Majikoi hype train or just be pleasantly surprised when it releases….

I’m hoping someone translates Momoyo’s route in Majikoi-S. She’s my favorite character, also.

*Sigh* so I guess the translation for Sonicomi is dead now, isn’t it?

Looks like the Gensou no Idea translation is dead. Their website and twitter vanished

I may just be a pessimist but no way do I see Kara no Shoujo 2 being released in April, I mean Princess Evangile was in editing for quite some time right? Or is there some indication that Kara no Shoujo 2 is being given more focus now that Princess Evangile is seemingly finished and ready for release.

wheres 12riven again, sad that translators prefer translating porn novels for horny little shit instead of real original stuff
