Uploaded my parts and what Kira did. I'll continue off from after the part '20,000 of my braincells have already died in the morning'.
And I need proofreaders as well. I need someone to check on the 'naive' part, the descriptions seem awkward to me. Working through Chinese fan translations, unless someone can provide me with Japanese originals, or if Kinokuniya Orchard has. (There goes my red packet money)

Re: Infinite Stratos (IS)
The beginning looks promising, but somehow it feels as if many of the plot elements were already used somewhere else...

Btw. I think the beginning looks promising but at the same time not really new/unique...
so I voted maybe.

It's Chinese New Year, those unmarried folks will get 'red packet money' or 'aung pao money' from those married. Kind of like a Christmas custom of giving gifts.Darklor wrote:Whats red packet money?
I got bugged by my friend to start on this project. Not very unique, I know, but hey, it involves mecha (and she's a gundam zombie)...

Re: Infinite Stratos (IS)
Gosh, why don't we have this comment on the blog?kira0802 wrote:Well, just that evryone gets the right idea, this is not a novel without a plot. In the 4 novels in the beginning, you get the idea that there isn't one. In fact, the author was making a love comedy/soft start to a bit more serious thing in the end of novels 1-3, the fourth being a bunch of short stories. But I think that in the 5th and the 6th, things start to get a bit more deeper. For exampleAnyways, I read the novels and I think that it is a LN superior to Strike Witches, which I dropped after one chapter. This is a LN that got a bit popular after the series were getting animated. I can compare it too the same kind of plot as Hidan no Aria (though the author lacks creativity too design the girls'reactions).Spoiler! :
I don't think you should take the anime as an example. There are way too much things that the anime didn't put that don't make sense while watching it. I hope that the teaser by Teh Ping could get released a bit sooner with some help. Well, it was a very long comment, but in my mind, all projects should get a chance to get a teaser and to be judged by the B-T viewers.

By the way, do you work with traditional Chinese or the simple one? Just by curiosity.Teh_ping wrote: And I need proofreaders as well.

given that most Chinese LN publications came from Kadokawa Taiwan, it would natuarlly be traditional Chinese versions since Taiwan uses traditional Chinese. Unless you are referring to non-official fan-translated ones.kira0802 wrote:By the way, do you work with traditional Chinese or the simple one?

Re: Project Plea: Infinite Stratos (IS〈インフィニット・ストラトス〉)
Well, as for me, I'm using the fan translations on book.sky-fire (chinese fan-translating site). The translating is pretty accurate, and I don't have the simplified Chinese ones. It's hard to find LN when you are living in the east of Canada LOL.larethian wrote:given that most Chinese LN publications came from Kadokawa Taiwan, it would natuarlly be traditional Chinese versions since Taiwan uses traditional Chinese.
