lucathia | translations, yuletide

Alright.

Update for

colors_tcg done. Check.
September update posted for Prince Revolution. Check.
Set up Chocobanana Scanlations. Check. (Help, we need more cleaners! I just want to see Kimi to Boku to the end. ♥)

Finally, free time to write some fic... Sometimes I wish I only wrote fic! :3;; Not enough time to do everything! Also, why aren't people responding... /worries at progress. I'm not good at managing so how did I end up managing all these different places... ORZ. Too many fandom responsibilities. XD I feel like I've probably forgotten to do some things too. If I don't answer or do something right away, I tend to forget... but what have I forgotten...

I can't believe

yuletide has started! There's a fandom brainstorming post and a nominations planning post up. Nominations start September 24! I'm not sure what I'll be nominating yet (SKET Dance for sure, but I don't know about my two other fandoms. Perhaps a book fandom? Though recently I've only been reading Taiwanese light novels XD. Hm, I wonder how popular Sword Art Online or Moonlight Sculptor are, as the only non Taiwanese light novels I've been reading, haha. Or perhaps a TW drama...but I doubt anyone has seen the one I'm currently watching, since it hasn't been subbed). I've been browsing the fandom brainstorming post, afraid I wouldn't be able to find a fourth fandom for my requests, or that I wouldn't be able to offer enough fandoms to write, but I think I'll be fine! There have been a few suggestions I wouldn't mind writing or requesting. Magi for one. :D I'll possibly be requesting Magi as my fourth if that nomination does happen! Also considering Fate/Zero if Waver and Rider are the ones that end up being nominated like the person said since they're my favorites too. \o\

I just love it so much when M-24 pointed out to M-21 that he's changed. Even his bearing. And then M-21 was all thinking, "I've changed?" I like to think that M-21 lets himself be more at ease now, that his expressions are softer. This is one of my favorite things to write about, someone becoming more comfortable with themselves, their surroundings, and their companions but not necessarily noticing until someone else points it out. And then sudden realization! Yes, I've changed, huh, fancy that. ♥ M-24 is also glad for M-21. While M-21 kind of doesn't respond to that and just lets it hang in the air, haha. Their interactions are so cute.

I've been thinking I need to write an appreciation post for Arctic Fox. :D Though it would contain spoilers for the remaining 1/2 Prince chapters. Hm. :3

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

Quite an early start for nominations this year! :D I haven't decided what to nominate yet. So many choices. :3

I was vaguely interested in reading Sword Art Online, but I didn't until recently. I haven't gotten very far with it. I'm also watching the anime though! :3 I think it's off to a good start.

I read and watch sword art online too, its preety good. Yet, im still waiting for vol. 11 to be completely translated before I read vol 10, i wonder if its good.
Hello! Been some time since I last commented. When will 39th gen's part 3 be translated? Just wondering. No pressure though! ^^

I'm only currently on volume 1 so far, and the anime still seems to be on volume 1 as well! (with some of volume 2 covered with the side stories). I'm enjoying it so far, though I'm not as enamored with it as I am with some series, haha.

I'm unsure when I'll get around to that. I've been handling Prince Revolution's updates and posting the chapters. That will be keeping me busy for the next two weeks. We'll see if I have more time over the weekend. =x Last weekend passed by and it was...very busy.

Oh, is that so? Thats pretty much fine I guess, or rather, thank you for all the efforts. I can handle the waiting, its all I ever do afterall, like waiting for the translation of this, for my favorite mangas to be released, for next week to come for the the next episode, and i have this serious situation of stalking sites like PR, mangafox, baka tsuki, summary blogs and yours. Ahaha. Thats pretty much the reason I can write english even if im not a fluent speaker in real life. Geez, just thank you and keep up the good work. Thats just what i want to say.

Unbeatable Part 3 will hopefully be up over the weekend!

I check a lot too, but on the other side. I check to see if people have left comments. :)

Wow! Im excited already! ¤Dancing in the air¤ How exciting.! ^^
Everyone of us who comments here im sure are glad that you attend to our comments almost immediately and leaving a reply. Thats makes us happy, for me, at least.
Though, this may sound like a complaint but really, its not. Why is there only one chapter of HP for this month? Right when its coming to its end? Real life situations?

This isn't a PR blog (more my personal blog!), but I can answer your question since I've been handling the recent releases while everyone else's been busy. :3;;

We have a lot more translations for LSK done, so it's a matter of proofreading them and polishing them to catch any errors or mistranslations each month. That means releases for LSK will be very regular. As for Half Prince, we've pretty much come to the very end of our store of chapters and don't have everything translated yet. It can take up to two months (or more) for chapters to go through the proofreading and editing process, so the release schedule had to be slowed down to make sure we don't have months without any HP chapters to post. It's a matter of...if you get two HP chapters this month, that means you might not get any next month, so we're spreading them out a bit more to prevent the second scenario, and to allow translators to finish translating the next few chapters. I'm biting my nails over here with how close we're cutting it, but don't worry, there are people working on all of the remaining chapters. (They just might not be very fast, but it will get done.)

Also, we're hoping not to have any gaps when we post the sequel of HP after volume 8... and well, the whole sequel still needs to be translated and proofread. We need some more buffer time for that.

PR's old release pace was round 3 chapters a month between the two series though, so this is already an accelerated pace from before. =P Next month, we'll most likely have only one HP chapter again. The chapters after that simply aren't ready. We don't want to have any months without a single HP chapter. It could change depending on how fast proofreaders are once we finally receive the translations for the last few chapters, but... with how school has started for many, I don't think our pace will be any quicker... I'm more afraid people will vanish for weeks on end!

Thank you for taking the time to explain. :)
And yeah sorry, i know this is not PR blog, i just cant help my self from asking since i had the chance. Wa he he. Yeah, so, thats it, Take care. ^_^

I've managed to narrow down my choices but I've got to ask for an invite since I haven't got an AO3 account. I should probably make sure I can actually write stories first...eek.

One day I'll get around to seeing Sword Art Online. It's on my 'to-watch' list; I just...have no time at the moment :P It's good to know you're liking it, though!

The invitation queue for AO3 is super long! I don't know how long it'd take for you to get an account, or if Yuletide will be able to hand out some invitations. D: It would be a good idea to join the invitation queue right away! But it seems unlikely that you'd get an invitation in time. There's nearly 30k people on the waitlist. @___@ I have...let me check, one invitation left over from long, long ago! I don't know if it still works (it should?) since I don't think accounts are being given any new invitations now for friends, but this old one should hopefully still work... If you want it, I can send it to you! :3 Just let me know your email~

Time is hard to come by, gaaaah. But it's a series worth checking out! :D

Eek that really is a huge waiting list!! I think Yuletide gets extra invites but I wonder if they'll have enough, if the waiting list is that long O.o Argh, knew I should have made an account when they first started up...I don't want to waste your invite! >.< But if you're happy to send me an invite I would be thrilled~ I'll PM you my email :)

I remember exchanges used to be able to request more invitations, and I would think Yuletide would have invites (it really hurts an exchange when newcomers can't get new accounts), but just in case! :) Hope you do decide to sign up for the exchange. :D

It would make sense that Yuletide would be able to get as many invites as needed since the creator of AO3 is the creator of Yuletide as well, I guess :P I'm definitely signing up :D Thanks so much for the invite!
