Kaze no Stigma's next translation part

Post by ShadowZeroHeart »

Well, I am currently working on Shana translations, but if things go well, i might be able to finish that Shana chapter in a couple of days, then i will probably concentrate on KnS. But there is a small question that I found when i read Ignition 1, and I think it is best to ask for opinions...

Kaze no Stigma Volume 2, Misao was rescued in the end.

Kaze no Stigma Volume 3
Spoiler! :
Ren's love story, with the mysterious appearance of a special guest spirit, little pixie!!
Kaze no Stigma Ignition 1
Spoiler! :
Ayano's disaster, the pixie's first appearance!! In the second story, they had to deal with their worst nightmares, and Ren saw "a girl that Ren has never seen before" attack him... Kazuma said that it is possible it is a girl that will appear in his future. The third story may be inserted in any part of the timeline, so I cant be sure where it should be exactly... The forth story is about Kazuma and Ayano going on a date in a theme park, which has clearly stated that Ren has already "been through a tough love".
Basically, around half of the volume of Ignition 1 is before Volume 3. So how should i continue the translation? According to the timeline, or according to the main story first, then the ignitions, or ignition 1, then volume 3? A small poll shall be held until i finish Shana and begin work on KnS once more.
God!!
You need not forgive me.
For those I love,
The violence brought about by sinful men
Shall now be used once more.
If you were created to save this world,
If there is a single shred of hope left for the future of mankind,
I am very sorry, but, please begone!

Even if the side stories has a small part to play in the main story?
Spoiler! :
Kazuma seems to know the pixie quite well in Volume 3, reason lies in Ignition 1, Kazuma met the pixie then.
P.S. if you do vote for that choice, please do the actual vote?

I think you should follow the timeline since the side stories seem to impact on the main story. Thank you for all your hard work with the translation Shadow.

Nothing.
Or a timeline like in the Suzumiya Haruhi series: http://www.baka-tsuki.org/project/index ... i:Timeline
With the same message on the main page: "There is a story timeline available which organizes the stories in the novels in chronological order, should you want to read everything ordered by date. =)".


[Edit]Oh by the way ShadowZeroHeart, I've added the chapter titles for Ignition vol 01 and vol 02. If you could check them with your Chinese raws :)
(Lol the "A certain Daily Life of the Special Reference Section of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police coordination Room" :shock: )

i cant really make a timeline, haruhi has a distinct time order, whereas kaze no stigma doesnt really have one...


and for the titles...
Ayano-chan's Misfortune
Let's meet in a Dream
Demon Beast, Puppy and a natural airhead Daughter
Haunted Holiday
Let's go to the Amusement Park!
Ayano-chan's Further Misfortune
firstly, should it be just ayano or ayano-chan? (cant be seen from chinese text)
and if you ask me, this would be my way of naming them...
Ayano's Disaster
The meeting in dream
Beast, puppy and airheaded girl
The holiday of shock
To the amusement park
Ayano's other disaster
Largely the same, oh well...
God!!

It's 綾乃ちゃん = Ayano-chan.

Great I didn't made any mistake.
I think the Japanese titles are perhaps a little more accurate like in the case of Haunted Holiday.
ホーンテッ・ドホリデー -> ho^nteddo・horide^ (romanized)-> Haunted Holiday

i normally feel like complaining if someone stops translated the main story to do the little addons, but if the side stories are canon and happen before vol three, then it only makes sense to translate them in the order that they should be read. chronologically,


right?

Please do not revive a thread that is over 2 years dead. KnS has been put on hold until I complete my studies.
