Those who want to have me work on SAO, please post ONCE here. (Preferably with a description why you think I should work here)

I hope you choose to work on SAO, as I believe it is a good series with an unusual premise.
The current translating team would greatly appriciate your assistance.
I am in no way associated with the translators, but I do appreciate their work and efforts.

Certainly SAO :).
First, the series itself is just great.
Second, with all respect to the current translators, their rate is just slow now and I don't know if it'll be better in the future. I don't mean to critisize, I know they are doing their best and there are some important things like school, job etc, but the fact remains the fact.
Third, I have my personal reason to wish for SAO to be translated quickly: I am translating SAO myself - from English into Russian (in Russia it's quite popular too you know); and currently I have almost nothing to translate :(.

well, SAO is a great story and doesnt have much volumes, so you can finish it fast and move to the next one.

Thumbs up for SAO. The reason I vote for it is I wanna see how Kirito rules over the virtual world.
Black Cats of the Full Moon have been doing a great job until last Summer when the translation speed down until tepid drips from them.

Edited :D
Vote ~ I believe you should translated this light novel due to the fact the main protagonist "Kirito" is just plain epic. His whimsical attitude is really enjoyable as he surprise people left and right with his awesome ability.

A go for SAO.

Won't be counting this unless you give a valid reason why-TP


It is just not often that you get such a bad-a#s character as Kirito who still seems human and whose decisions are well thought out

I hope you would help translate SAO because I really like this series. It's my favorite series on Baka-Tsuki (although I've only read ~5 here). And I guess like Nemesh said, there's not that many volumes to translate so you can finish it up faster than some other series.

Vote for SAO. The battle is cool, the charas are cool, and the story is awesome. Oh, and Asuna is cute^^. And it's almost half done.
There are two motives to read a book. First, to enjoy the story.

Second is so you can boast about it.


Oh, also, Type-Moon Banzai.

Definitely SAO. Nothing more convincing than to actually see it for yourself.

Voting for SAO. .The story alone is very interesting and unique, the action is mind blowing and just reading it sucks you in and makes you want to read more.

SAO. In my opinion, it's one of the best stories I have ever read. And the reason BCotFM have problems with the speed is that they haven't any professional translators. I hope you will help =)

1)I would like to see SAO translated so I don't spam baka-tsuki every 10 mins to see if there is a new update.
2)I've played a lot of games over the years, and I actually enjoy reading this more than I enjoy playing lol...
3)Stories/manga involving fantasy/games like this one and some others (moonlight sculptor, Yureka, I.d, etc...) are just so fun to read and I just can't help but want to find out what's going to happen or what amazing things the main characters will do next.
4)I have been using google/bing translator for a while cause I get desperate sometimes but that doesn't really get u too far except a headache or two. Moonlight sculptor is actually my favorite but too bad its not on baka-tsuki but in close 2nd is SAO and I'd like to see it all translated.
