Thanks for the offer. It's great to have a new translator. But I'm against translating Monogatari series from other languages except from Japanese. --larethian 21:11, 7 February 2012 (CST)
I see, is it because of NisiOisiN's writing style?
In a way, yes. Nishio's word-play are not just restricted to puns alone, but also literary aspects of Japanese, such as how a character's kanji is written, or substituting completely seemingly unrelated kanji for pronunciation purposes only, but yet embedding a deeper meaning which gives the used kanji relevance, and many others. Double language translations may be too lossy for this series, in my opinion --larethian 23:20, 8 February 2012 (CST)
