== Pictures, Projects, Volumes and Chapter names ==

Pictures, Volumes and Chapter pages MUST include the project name in the proper format. You can't just go around willy nilly and name a pic simply as V06 Quote. If it's from Kino no Tabi it should be named as '''Kino no Tabi v6 Quote''' similar to the naming format the rest of vol 6 pics are named with. Please bear this in mind in the future.

I'm very sorry. I did know, I was just careless this time. Thank you for making the corrections. You even changed the page where the files link to... I'm really sorry for the trouble.... >_< [[User:Ella.servantes|Ella.servantes]] ([[User talk:Ella.servantes#top|talk]]) 00:19, 10 August 2012 (CDT)

Greetings. All right then, on ou&mdash;my way.... Just to assure myself, for page 3 to 12, only the 'no-text' version that's included...or only the 'no text' version of page 3-5 and 6-9 while 10-12 use the original version?

By the way, here's a [http://www.mediafire.com/?9bqh9e7d8kti12v link] to paper size comparison that I think suitable for page 3-5 and page 6-9 of volume 6. Just in case you want to try it again later... and for any other illustration of other volumes of this series that're more than 2 pages big.

For the time being I'll use the 'Super B' version of the frontispiece images in question, while making changes on the draft.-/-[[User:User753|User753]]-[[User talk:User753|Talk]]- 05:38, 12 August 2012 (CDT)

Hi! Use no-text versions for pages 3-12 (and just to make sure, use all the re-uploaded versions of the pictures for the rest)  ^_^

'Super B' looks good for frontispiece 1. For frontispiece 2, it's still not a fit, but I myself doubt there's a paper size that would actually fit it, so 'Super B' seems to be the best choice. (BTW, that's a really funny name for a paper size... 0_0).

Again, thank you very much! :D
----
Greetings. You're welcome. Volume 6's pdf is up on KnT main page, glad that I could help even just a little.<br/>
Well, I'll try to find or make a size that will fit it. Indeed it is a funny name, but that page-size is named like that in MS Word 2007.(Probably the designer has quite a sense of humour.)-/-[[User:User753|User753]]-[[User talk:User753|Talk]]- 22:22, 12 August 2012 (CDT)

Ah, I forgot to say it before. In the previous version of page 185 (left), there's a line of sentence(s) near the top-right edge of it. Did the line got erased by accident? Or is it moved to quote page (right)?

Phew! I'm sorry for the delay in reply... It was raining deadlines for me yesterday! But I'm free for the rest of the week, yay! More KnT! XD

Thank you, thank you, thank you very much! Please, you were really a big help. And I really appreciate it when you go around and clarify some things about the translated chapters. ^_^

Ah, no the line was not erased by accident. I removed it when I cleaned it up because that line was the last sentence of chapter 7; the picture is usually drawn on the last page of the chapter as long as there's space... that's why the picture's down there... :)

The quote page was an entirely different page. It really belongs right before the prologue. Hmm...should I upload the original version of the quote? (That was in Japanese text)
----
My apology. I didn't mean to rush you or anything. Just saying what I thought at that time.<br/>
Oh, that part *shudder*... I see. Thanks for clarifying. Nope, thank you. I was only wondering about what that line is.-/-[[User:User753|User753]]-[[User talk:User753|Talk]]- 11:26, 14 August 2012 (CDT)

Hello User753! No worries! And as usual, thank you for making the pdf ^_^ <br/>
Sorry, I was only able to check it this morning. There are only a few pages missing or not updated: The front cover and the title page are not updated; the quote page, title pages for chapter 2 and chapter 3 are missing. And minor stuff: The font color of the title for chapter 5 and author's notes are black.

Thank you very much. (Sorry for my late reply, just woke up)<br/>
I recently checked the number of download on Kino no Tabi's pdf and... surprisingly, the number of download of volume 4 is already 223 times.<br/>
On a completely unrelated note, I think the affection I have towards Kino's increasing.-/-[[User:User753|User753]]-[[User talk:User753|Talk]]- 17:40, 10 October 2012 (CDT)

Nah, we can't be online all the time (Sometimes I wish I could...LOL) <br/>
Oh! That's nice to know! Last time I checked, Volume VI has 199 downloads. I'm actually wondering why the download count's increasing (I thought we had less than fifty readers...)<br/>
Ho? I'm not showing any signs of getting better from my addiction... (It's been what, 10 months?) Just yesterday, I almost had a heart attack when I saw the cover of volume XVI. Ah... I want one... T_T
----
Hehe, thank you very much. Looks like the fanbase is still alive and kicking.<br/>
Actually I only see a few seconds glimpse of an episode of Kino no Tabi back in the day where satelite tv isn't common here (along with Yukikaze), and it's only the ending, but I've pretty much attracted to the series already. When I realize about this on Baka-Tsuki, I feel like I've found a long lost important friend that I've only seen once, almost like a love on the first sight. (Well, my attraction and affection setting is a little odd. But then, my full name has already hint it along with my personality |<!--If translated in English, my name will be: Yeremia, son of love or something.

<!--It was not love at first sight for me though. I was "visually-inclined", so I used to put much more importance to art over story. I first heard of KNT when I was looking for anime similar to Mushishi, and read tons of praises about it, but I was heavily turned-off with the art (that was before I learned of the existence of the novel), so I put it off for over a year. I really wish I hadn't, because the fanbase that time was a lot stronger and I would have gotten more KNT goodies...T_T-->[[User:Ella.servantes|Ella.servantes]] ([[User talk:Ella.servantes#top|talk]]) 21:32, 10 October 2012 (CDT)

Nope, looks like Dammitt's been busy these days, he already placed his name under Inactive (in Black Bullet too, it seems)

Oh... Now I'm wondering why Volume 3 has the most downloads... Volume 6 only has 823 though it was the first one out. You've done a great job with the pdf's too, thank you as always! :D

About Volume 8... sorry for putting off the full text for weeks. Proofreading chapter 1 is so depressing (seeing my translation errors, I mean) so I haven't made much progress... T_T Hopefully I'll get it done within the month.
----
... Thank you very much... Sorry for disappearing and procrastinating due to the following reason. 

|<!-- Well, it's a good old story actually. Got lead of from just wanting to be friends and fall for a 'girl' I met online. Thankfully, the very same person who lead me also realize (and told me) that that person is an illusion... nothing more than an illusion. Hec- *cough* sorry for cussing... Well, that person isn't even a girl. Though I admit that, 6 months of pretense requires quite a skill. 8, if counting the time spent with him as well. Luckily though, he who lead me to fall for 'her' realized and told me that first, 'she' and 'her cousin' is actually one person, then about said person's gender, and guess at the motives.  Though, thanks to this, I can finally let go the feelings I had for a certain someone 9 years ago, and earlier than expected as well. <br/>
Sorry for ranting here... and I haven't answered your question yet... I am inexperienced in interpersonal relationship with one of the opposite gender beyond crush. And this one,sort of, a lesson for that dull edge. Fellow members of BT will laugh when they find this. -->|

Thank you. Well, that's because I have good examples to follow and great translators here *staring at one of the translator*. For the credit page, I just followed the list from the pages' history (and sometimes take a quick peek to see the changes, though not all changes). Is it too long or require a rearrangement?

I see. I hope I can see him around soon.

I wonder. Maybe because volume 6 is the first try, and thus, confusing as to which to download?

Please don't worry about that and take your time. And please don't overwork yourself.

I ended up using the word 'the' more than thrice... Self challenge failed. -/-[[User:User753|User753]]-[[User talk:User753|Talk]]- 05:45, 18 April 2013 (CDT)

I'm no better than a grade-schooler when it comes to that. I stopped growing up by that point... LOL -->

Oh, no, the credit page is good as it is. When I saw it, I just realized how much effort has been made to complete this volume. It's... how should I put it... moving?

Sorry for my late reply. I overslept again yesterday. |<!-- Ah, this one? "The internet: Where men are men, women are men, and children are FBI agents"?<br>
Me neither. So probably it was a required lesson for me. . . or perhaps I was just a little bit naive. . . probably not, a naive person won't know, let alone admit that he is. If I may quote, someone did say that "experience is the best teacher", and I'm not sure where I have heard it, but I remember someone continue it by quoting this "but the student is dead before the lesson is finished" or something like that.<br.>
If I may ask, how come? By no means or plans to offense you, you seem like a good person to me, with good real life social contacts and links and such. -->|

Indeed it was moving.

Perhaps you are a little bit bored with something and need to do something to refresh yourself?

Well, it is indeed a common word, and I have no problem with using that. Though, if I can, sometimes I prefer to use 'the' when I am referring to something of (personal) importance and replace that word with something of (near) equivalent for others. Though it may seems quite silly outside a personal log.. or diary. At least it's easier to understand compared to when I tried to avoid/skip using personal pronoun to refer to myself. Though it's quite silly no matter how many times I re-thought about it. -/-[[User:User753|User753]]-[[User talk:User753|Talk]]- 18:27, 19 April 2013 (CDT)

<!--Yep, I've seen that version somewhere too! I wouldn't call it naivete either. This is one case where you are still around to make use of the lesson in the future, but it is true that learning from experience often leaves scars behind.
No worries, no worries! ^_^ Do you know about the term "hikikomori"? I'd describe myself as a 'partial hikikomori'. But others probably see me more as a 'nerd' or a 'geek' (But when I looked up the meaning of those terms, I just didn't fit the description... haha). Let's just say I don't go anywhere else other than office or home (except for rare occasions and get-togethers with my closest friends). Maybe the reason I come off as normal even with zero social life is because I'm actually happy despite my isolation. (And no one believes that I am *sigh*. It's quite frustrating trying to convince people that I am contented with staying home all day banging at my keyboard.)-->

I try to refresh myself with more Kino chapters. It works, but the process it takes just to finish one cancels it out. LOL

It takes effort to watch out for your words. Now I know why you call it a challenge. Not using personal pronouns? I couldn't imagine it in English without sounding... well, strange. (and now that I think about it, that will also be quite a headache in my native language). But you can pull that off in Japanese (where it's the norm actually). It's a pretty quirky language in some ways. [[User:Ella.servantes|Ella.servantes]] ([[User talk:Ella.servantes#top|talk]]) 04:09, 20 April 2013 (CDT)
----
|<!-- Pardon me. When I first read yours, what crossed my mind isn't hikkikomori, nerd, nor geek, what crossed my mind is either the term 'introvert', a person who prefers solitude, or shyness.<br/>
Well , sometimes it's hard for others to be convinced, as, usually, every person has different perception; interpretation; and experience regarding something. But then, that's what communication for. Especially to the closest of friends. If it's hikkikomori, even if it's partial, I think you would not maintain the precious ties with your real-life friends or be comfortable being inside the core group/circle during the get-togethers. (By now, it ought to be clear as to what my personality shifts toward in the scale, as it's hard not to use those choices of words. At least not naturally.) My apology if I offend you. -->|

I see. Sounds like a kind of sweet torture. Really sweet one.

For the entirety of personal pronoun, it would be. But for personal pronoun that refers to self, I think it could still be pulled off, though it still couldn't be used much often. Well, for that part, it should be easily guessable as to what (mainly) 'inspire' that self-challenge, beside the norm of Japanese, so to speak.. or type. -/-[[User:User753|User753]]-[[User talk:User753|Talk]]- 10:50, 20 April 2013 (CDT)

<!-- No need for apologies! XD I get that a lot, actually. I'd love to think I'm an introvert (I admire the few people I know who are), unfortunately, I'm not much of a thinker and being around people doesn't make me uncomfortable that I'd fold up during conversation (so it's probably not shyness). Also, I don't think most introverts lock themselves up in their rooms... But you have a point, maybe calling myself a hikikomori isn't right either. The truth is I'm still wondering what term would fit me. Or, maybe it's better not to stereotype myself... after all, we're all unique. ^_^ (Wait, I'm guessing you're an introvert?)-->

Nicely put, that one. That almost sounds like I'm a masochistic Kino fan. XD

Maybe I should try writing without using a letter... x? Nope, that's not much of a challenge.

If it's for Kino, I'm willing to be anything. LOL

How about "P"? M and L may be too much for me. BTW, I started the challenge already...^_^
----
|<!-- Is it because I am intruding you?<br/>
Well,at first, aside from diagnosed as an introvert, a fraction of the "official diagnosis" is kind of disheartening for me. From one side, it is. Though from other side(s) of the dice, it may not be so. Since it could also mean an introvert who tries to open up outwards to a certain extend.

Oh, now I get it, it's like a "tendency" to become extroverted, or the other way around. Well, majority of humans are extroverted, so there's a downside to it, too.-->

I'll exclude the translation. I think that's too difficult for me. What, you're joining the game? :D. (Had to reword a few times to avoid that letter... this won't be too easy... haha)

That's a surprise. Do you wait until the volume is finished before reading? (Not that it's bad). Actually... my infatuation with Kino is nothing compared to my addiction to Master.

Hello there Ella-san and User753-san. It's great to see you back! Hope I don't sound to impolite when butting in your conversation like this. I'm very interested in the news about Kino making it in to Japanese newspapers. This news reminds me of [http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2012-11-23/editor/more-planned-for-kino-journey-readers this article] in November last year. I wonder if this is really the response to that article. Also, does Ella-san know what types of newspapers Kino is featured in?

I don't mind at all ^_^ Yes, apparently this is the surprise (and you can imagine my mixed disappointment and amazement upon reading about it), though a few fans still believe in a second season. Um, according to some source, the newspapers are: Shizuoka Shinbun, Fukushima Minpo, Niigata Nippo, Hokkoku Shinbun, Oita Godo Shinbun, and Minami Nippon Shinbun. And Shizuoka Shinbun's [http://www.at-s.com/news/yomotto/kino/ website] even posts summaries (a very short summary with no juicy hints about the story) every week. 

----
Well, I think that it was kinda obvious that it's not anime related, since it was Dengeki Bunko who announced that they're planning something for readers of KnT, and in the end it became a [http://dengekibunko.dengeki.com/20th/special/ "Special"] for their 20th anniversary. [[User:Dammitt|Dammitt]] ([[User talk:Dammitt|talk]]) 17:24, 5 May 2013 (CDT)

As long as I would appreciate a second season for Kino if it even happened, I still think this is an amazing news. It makes me wonder about the reception of Kino in Japan... As I don't think Kino is appealing to the majority of light novel readers out there, since the current trend of light novels pretty much gears towards otaku (with moe stuff related, harem theme, or premises that sounds like mainstream shounen series, etc.) while Kino is quite unique on its own (granted, there are some titles like ''Baccano'' or ''Spice and Wolf'' that also have their own themes and uniqueness, but still in the minority). Does anyone have any idea about Kino's demographic, or how well it is received in the current years?

I looked at the weekly summaries and pictures in Shizuoka Shinbun website and it seems all these stories are brand new. Collecting those newspaper would be impossible unless you're living in those regions in Japan where they are published (T_T).

Ella-san, sorry if I bother you with this, but would you reupload the inner illustrations of Kino volume 8's epilogue story? I know untuned-strings already included them in his blog, but I still prefer your version to be here, so that we have the complete illustrations for this volume on our site.[[User:BloodyKitty|BloodyKitty]] ([[User talk:BloodyKitty|talk]]) 02:12, 6 May 2013 (CDT)

----
I wasn't expecting an anime either, but deep inside I couldn't help but wish for a second season. :D By the way, thank you for the link Dammitt, I only realized now that there was an official announcement...

I can't be so sure because I'm not in touch with all things Japan, but I do know that Kino enjoyed its share of popularity. It probably peaked around 2005-2007, during which the second movie, the second game, and the spin-off Gakuen Kino were all released. The volumes were always in Oricon's top 10 during the first two weeks of release and stays in the rankings for about a month. However the sales have dwindled during the past years, with an average of 45K copies sold every first week. The numbers are certainly a far cry from those of recent LN best-sellers, but as of 2012, it is still among the all-time best-selling light novels in Japan with 7.7 million copies sold over 22 volumes (including Gakuen Kino, apparently)

All I can say is that it must have retained a pretty consistent fanbase, or it was a result of strategizing in Dengeki Bunko's part, seeing that they don't usually release their best-sellers concurrently.

About the pictures--sure, I'll put them up again ^_^ (actually, they're already uploaded, but I couldn't decide where to place them...)[[User:Ella.servantes|Ella.servantes]] ([[User talk:Ella.servantes#top|talk]]) 08:49, 6 May 2013 (CDT)

I do want another season for Kino too, though the current anime base doesn't seem to support series like Kino much (I miss how creative and unconventional many older animes can be *sigh*). It's good to know that Kino still have a fairly solid fanbase in Japan. About the pictures, why don't you just put them in the prologue chapter page, but instead of large thumbnails you put them in gallery mode, just like the pictures in the Novel Illustrations page?[[User:BloodyKitty|BloodyKitty]] ([[User talk:BloodyKitty|talk]]) 11:08, 6 May 2013 (CDT)

You bet. I couldn't quite find a new anime to love after Kino no Tabi. T_T And I wish the fanbase stay strong; as long as it is, there will be more Kino in the future, unless the author decides to finish the story.

That's a great idea, thanks BloodyKitty! [[User:Ella.servantes|Ella.servantes]] ([[User talk:Ella.servantes#top|talk]]) 11:56, 6 May 2013 (CDT)

User753, don't worry about that. It's nice to have you guys to talk to, especially about KnT because I can't seem to find anybody else beside this place ;_; 

My Japanese still doesn't really go anywhere, so I'm not that much better than you, either. Though I will definitely sign up a proper Japanese class after I graduate. There are a lot of things in Japanese (mangas, novels, games) that I want to understand without the loss of translation when I read the English version of them, so yeah.

Ella-san, to ease another of my curiosity, which volume among volume 9, 10, 11 are about to get completed first? Looking back, we have come really this far, with volume 2->8 completed and volume 9->11 nearly completed (also volume 12 completed already by Untuned-Strings), which was something unthinkable for me over a year ago. My appreciation for everybody working for Kino translation is so hugh that I can't really describe with words.

I still have this thesis that I have to start and done in the next two weeks so maybe this is my nearly last post for this month.

Oh. Only now did I realize that my BT page has become a forum to discuss Kino stuff. 

Learning new languages is never a bad thing, be it Japanese or not, so go for it! :D

Plans are to complete 9 then 10 then 11. But I'd like to alternate between translating chapters from volume 13 and completing them. I want to leave one chapter untranslated for the incomplete volumes because when all the chapters in a volume gets translated, people often assume they're finalized. (about volume 10... I'll have to ask for Untuned-Strings' V10C07 translation). After volume 13, I might go for another hiatus. Exams.

Ah, right. It's been over a year. I'm glad I could share Kino, even if it's just the gist of the stories (because my translations are not accurate, I'm afraid I ruined many quotes and descriptions, sorry about that). Yeah... I wish I could shake hands with everyone who made an effort in translating, editing, and supporting and reading Kino no Tabi.

I guess it's about time we have a forum topic for this series for real. Taking space from your own page doesn't feel good at all. Also a lot of volumes have been completed, and there might be other people who want to discuss. Way too bad there isn't an active discussion on any forum I know. Maybe a topic on baka-tsuki forum is fine, though I also usually loitering around animesuki, there are quite a number of active novel readers in the manga & light novel sections.

I'd always love to learn new language, it's just that I can't find time to do so. Study and stuff.

It's kinda shameful because I was given quite a long time for this thesis but I always doesn't have the interest and concentration to get it done. Now I'm kinda in a crisis...

Don't worry about it. I know we're all busy with RL (speaking of which, I skipped two weeks again! Slap me. Now.) I also want to apologize because it took me ages (read: 4 lazy weekends) before I managed to finish volume 9 even though it's only 1 chapter away from completion. (And since when did I turn into royalty? LOL)

I'm glad you got the insert pictures right. Our dear author played a lot with the chapters in this volume you see... However, one slight correction in the credits page. Dammitt is a translator for this volume (He translated the prologue, epilogue and the two frontispiece parts). Other than that it's great. So... um, I guess I'll wait for revisions? :D

I agree that it would be really nice to have a subforum for Kino, oh, and thanks... <!-- I feel like I'm passing the responsibility to you though (sorry >_<) I don't know myself why I'm hesitating to dip my feet in the world of the baka-tsuki forums.

Speaking of BloodyKitty, thanks for adding the pictures in the other volumes! I was surprised one night when I checked my watchlist and saw that it was full of bold links. Also thanks for the edits particularly in volume 9 chapter 4 (When I saw the corrections I had to wonder whether I was drunk while translating). Uh, are you by chance 'nekonotabi' in tumblr? (kitty = neko :3) My search for Kino stuff got me to that page a few days ago.

Sorry for my late reply... Finally able to finish the upload. (Though to be honest, I was surprised when I check the timestamp.) <br/>
Thank you very much for the correction. I'm sorry for that. Forgot to check it after I copied the credit page's format from the previous pdf, rather than make it anew (talk about being lazy.... which reminds me of my (almost) 12 months old promise to certain individuals on BT to translate it). Actually I was planning to type your highness, as it can refer to a judge as well. Oh well, a royalty is also a judge, and I'll be punished anyway |<!-- if this is a play, I'll be put in a gallows long ago. Charged of being lazy and insubordination-->| . Though the idea of you being a royalty, furthermore, a royalty in disguise is an interesting one.

For the pictures, I did that by following your direction (which without, I will only make even more mistake). I'll try asking in the forums after I finish at least a chapter from my promise, I feel bad for neglecting that (that I... well half-purposefully, don't give an estimation on when to start working on).

Anyway, these are the revised version. Please check them when you're not busy:<br/>

Oh, actually that was really fast. Thank you as always for the PDF's and for the revisions. I posted the links up already. :D <br/>
SAO translations? |<!--Actually, I think translating something you have already read is *very* difficult. The motivation to translate really goes down. (I tried this once with a few Kino chapters, with devastating effects *cough* so now I try my best not to read ahead before I translate)-->| Well, good luck on that promise! I'm sure you'll get to it one of these days.|<!--And now I become a judge...? I assure you I have no means to prosecute you, neither here nor in RL (haha). And if I were royalty, I would grant you a reward (not punishment!) for your efforts ^_^ Um, insubordination? Whose orders are you disobeying? LOL -->| 

Don't worry about it too much. Prioritize your life (says Master and Kino... <3)

Greetings, Ella-san & User753-san. It's good to see you all again ^_^

To Ella: Yes I'm 'nekonotabi' on tumblr. Happy that you recognize me ^o^. I only signed up tumblr a few months ago, mainly for animanga fandoms and following stuff. I'll welcome you if you have an account there, after all being active alone in Kino fandom is kind of sad ;_; (that doesn't mean I'll stop any time LOL). Untuned-strings also have his account there and I follow him for his updates and info too. About the pictures & edits they're no big deal at all. After all I only do them at a whim and I was kind of free at the time anyway. Just keep on with your work.

To User753: It's great if a Kino forum is made, thank you so much ^_^. Please notice us if there is one, though I don't know if I'll be active starting from September...

I'm really going to sign-up soon because I just noticed that the posts you can view for a particular tag (i.e. kino no tabi) are limited if you're not logged-in. But I'll probably won't post anything myself... LOL I see you've been the one populating the fyeahkino account with updates, gotta thank you for that! I'll definitely follow you and Untuned once I'm there :D [[User:Ella.servantes|Ella.servantes]] ([[User talk:Ella.servantes#top|talk]]) 19:02, 1 August 2013 (CDT)
