I'm not back, I'm always lurking, but really not going to have time to tl. I mean, I could probably get 5-10 minutes of work in per day, but that's not long enough to get into a groove, and wouldn't be very productive...

So i uploaded the novel illustrations for volume 4, was wondering if it's okaay with you jonathan, if it is then i'll upload the illustrations for volume 2 and 3 tomorrow

[jonathanasdf]

yep yep

I'm not even project supervisor or anything :<

[Mystes]

Thanks lchigo. (Volume 3's illustrations were...OMG)

[lchigo93]

Wait, I only take credit for uploading vol 4's novel illustration, as for vol 2 and 3 it's uploaded by a user named Lightning, as when i planned to upload the illustrations i saw that it was already up on the page, thanks Lightning.

[jonathanasdf]

yeah, the illusts are pretty, awesome huh?

and you even get a glance at Shidou's real sister, Mana. This isn't much of a spoiler so don't worry.

[lchigo93]

Mana was introduced at the end of volume 2, so no biggie for me, and I took the liberty of translating the title for each chapter for each volume, though I hope someone with more experience would check on my translations and change as they see fit, since i translated them from japanese, which i'm still a noob at. Translated vol 2 from the chinese title, so you guys should REALLY check that one. And i also reuploaded and re-edited the thumbnails on the main page with cropped version so all of them are the same as vol 1 (WILL RE-UPLOAD HIGHER QUALITY ILLUSTRATIONS FOR VOL 4 WHEN AVAILABLE). So yeah, that's pretty much what i did today, I might just start putting some stuff into the characters page, though i'm not sure how to, since I have totally no idea how to use the codes and the format of organization for the page.

Urgs, that series did start so promising (prologue + chapter 1), but with second half of chapter 2 it becomes really unbearable for me ... does that continue throughout the series?

[KuroiHikari]

BTW, the image names for vol 2 and vol 3 are not appropriate, right?

[lchigo93]

Not sure since I didn't name them, I know the images for volume 4 is correct, I'll double check an do some editing later

[Mystes]

BTW, the image names for vol 2 and vol 3 are not appropriate, right?

Indeed. Personally, I think the format should be the same as Volume 1's...

There's no way to fix that other than deleting them and reuploading them up, right?

[Mystes]

Well, how about moving them or change their names?

That can be done?

Yeah, imo this series has a bit of everything, as I think I said in an earlier post somewhere. Let's see, parts that are like the second half of chapter 2 are... first part of chapter 4, vol 2 beginning of ch 1, ch 4, vol 3 ch 4 (is hilarious but seriously messed up lol, anyone remember last ep of carnival phantasm?)... and beginning of vol 4 chapter 8. I probably missed some.

But there's more than enough epic action and drama to make up for it imo.

I personally liked the comedy in the later part of ch 2 tho. I think the series is well done (or maybe badly done) in the sense that for anyone, there's a bit of it that caters to them, and for the parts they don't like there's not quite enough to make them stop reading
