=== '''Questions and Answers''' ===

'''1. Are you working on the light novels or the web novels? What's the difference?'''

I'm working from the Chinese translations of the light novels. The web novels were published before the light novels, but the light novels contain more content in terms of character development and extra scenes. In addition, some lines in the web novels were toned down in the light novels. (And there's more fanservice in the light novels.)

'''2. Hey, dude, the chapters are out of order! Why did you translate Chapter Y before Chapter X?'''

Simply put, because someone signed up to do Chapter X before I did. Translators work at different speeds, so some chapters may come out ahead of the others. Everyone works at their own pace, so give them some time.

'''3. So when's your next chapter coming out?'''

If I got a dollar every time someone asked me this, I would be able to do this for a living. Click on the User Page tab on the top left corner and you will find my progression on the latest chapter as well as a ''rough'' estimate on when the chapter will be complete. And, no, it has been scientifically proven that asking me to work faster/harder does not improve translation speed. I am working off of PST in California, so do take that into account when looking for the new chapter on my update days.

'''4. Are you going to translate all the volumes?'''

Until otherwise stated, yes.

'''5. I got the chapter summaries from somewhere else, may I post them in the forums?'''

Please don't. Last I heard, the chapter summaries flying everywhere absolutely killed all motivation for the translators. So...... Please don't. Please.

'''6. I want to join the project, where do I sign up?'''

I don't have the power to actually grant that since I am not the project leader for MKnR, larenthian is. If you are interested in joining the project, drop by the Feedback Thread to let larenthian and Seitsuki know. Following that, inscribe your name onto the [[Mahouka_Koukou_no_Rettousei:Registration_Page|Registration]] page next to which chapter you would like to work on. I will '''not''' provide RAWs, so do not ask.

'''7. I have more questions that you haven't answered here!'''

Drop me a line in the comments section below. If I can't answer it, go ahead and take it to the Feedback Thread on the forums.

=== '''Comments'''===
Hey Dreyakis! Thanks again for the awesome work. I know you do these translations for fun, but I wanted to ask: would it be okay to send you and some of the other translators/editors on this project a few gift cards or something? Without the Mahouka translators and editors many of us would simply be unable to enjoy a lot of these foreign works. You guys have worked really hard on these translations and I'd love to chance to thank you guys for the awesome job on Mahouka. [[User:D4mi3n|d4mi3n]] ([[User talk:D4mi3n|talk]])

:While I do appreciate the sentiment, we translators are ultimately just that: translators. We do not own the rights to the material and thus should not and cannot receive any profit or benefit from the translations. I am very happy to be able to work on Mahouka and bring it over to an audience that previously was unable to read this, but I will have to turn you down. In fact, the best thing you can do to thank us is to head on over to the Appreciation Thread in the Mahouka forums and tell us. [[User:Dreyakis|Dreyakis]] ([[User talk:Dreyakis#top|talk]]) 19:38, 7 December 2013 (CST)

::I figured as much, and I totally understand. I would have definitely bought Mahouka myself if it was available in English. That being said, thanks again! --[[User:D4mi3n|d4mi3n]] ([[User talk:D4mi3n|talk]]) 23:38, 7 December 2013 (CST)

:::It is always my pleasure to serve. [[User:Dreyakis|Dreyakis]] ([[User talk:Dreyakis#top|talk]]) 01:18, 8 December 2013 (CST)

do you know why these chapters seem shorter than the others?

:Format changes between volume to volume. For example, Volume 8 also had a high count of shorter chapters. [[User:Dreyakis|Dreyakis]] ([[User talk:Dreyakis#top|talk]]) 23:30, 8 December 2013 (CST)

How do you measure your progress (as in (82/96))? As it is obviously not percent, is it lines (I doubt that), paragraphs, pages or something different?

Hello, Drey! You are doing a new project what is it? Will you continue Mahouka as well? [[User:Ulrick|Ulrick]] 24/05/2014

So you're doing one of the Fate series huh? Sounds nice but I still have to ask are you going to be working on Mahouka volume 13? Because it's been out for a while. Though I do recall mention of this being the series first release of the volume as an actual book first rather than it being updated as a webseries first and how that would somehow effect the speed of the translation but still I'd like to know if you are working on it or could give a rough estimate on when you might be planning on working on it

=== '''Expressing Gratitude'''===

Hmm this section seems a bit lonely so thanks drey for all the good work.

thank you for all your hard work

Thanks for translating, but Please finish the last chapter of volume 5, I've been waitin for like 20 months to continue reading this series and I'm honestly starting to hate this series due to not being able to continue it
Sorry if I'm unreasonable but fuck this is horrible

Volume 5 is a compilation of short stories and is not part of the main storyline. You can skip this and proceed to volume 6.

Nope, Its Volume 5, not 4.5 or SS

Yeah, but other than the last chapter (Presidential election), its really just a bunch of side stories that have little impact on the main story line (and by little I mean virtually none). Besides all that's left is an unfinished chapter about a side charachter that hasn't been used other than an extra (like people in movies that are there just for the sake of the feel/mood) [[User:SXIII|SXIII]] ([[User talk:SXIII|talk]]) 19:11, 23 June 2014 (CDT)

Thank you for all of your hard work on this series! :)

Thank you for begin translations on the Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei LN. I appreciate it.

Best of Luck in your Mahouka volume 5 translations, they are much appreciated!

Thank you for helping with the translations. Great seeing new faces thank you so much.

Yeah! You should also add yourself to the translator list.

Thank you so much for coming to translate this.

Good luck with helping translate Mahouka!! Thank you SOOO much!

If you upload just the text in other language then chrome can translate it so if you have the text then upload it please

I am unsure whether I understand the last sentence but if you mean that I should upload the book unto my computer and use a program to do the bulk of the translation, aside from the fact that I believe uploading copyrighted material is illegal, I do not have the technological capacity to do that, so I'm afraid that my process will remain read phrase, doublecheck words I'm unsure of, translate into english and then type my rough translation(and it is rough, the complexity of the task really eats away at my punctuation skills and for speed's sake I often can't spend the time to get a sentence just right, so if you want to help please edit). The process is slow but, with practice I will get faster. -Sashiko

Don't worry too much about punctuation. We can cover that for you based on the context of the text, as long as we can tell where the sentences start and end. I try to avoid changing the actual words as much as possible. You should also ignore the person telling you to have the browser translate it -- pretty sure BT staff does not like that just off the legal issues alone.

Good job with chapter 3 of Presidential election and the queen. I didn't expect that development, but I like where it's heading. And I agree with the way you do it, not using computer-aided translation. It certainly is a bit slower, but results are something nobody using software assist - even those professional programs out there - can match. And should you ever wish to deploy your skills to translating stuff like serious dissertations for some publisher, computer aids can only get you in trouble. --[[User:Wa-totem|Wa-totem]]

Sashiko-san, were you also the one who translate Vol08-Ch07 and Vol08-Ch08? Please fill the one who tranlated it in the registration page. I'm a little confused. [[User:Mada|Mada]] ([[User talk:Mada|talk]]) 08:50, 28 February 2013 (CST)

No, I was not. I have only translated the chapters I have registered for.[[User:Sashiko|Sashiko]] ([[User talk:Sashiko#top|talk]]) 12:20, 28 February 2013 (CST)

Is chapter 4 complete or not?

Excuse me, it is about the last part of Mahouka Kouka no Rettosei Vol.8 Chapter 4. Isn't page 61 and page 62 supposed there? Thank you and my apologies before.
[[User:Mada|Mada]] ([[User talk:Mada|talk]]) 08:16, 21 March 2013 (CDT)

Hi, Thank you for your Translations. I was curious as to who is translation Chapters 15 and 16 of Volume 8. The Registration page doesn't show anyone as having registered for those 2 chapters and you have 17,18 ready and waiting for us (which i am desperately eager to read). Thanks again for all your hard work.

I am working on Chapter 15 however, when Seitsuki has the time to translate he can easily translate faster than I can so I believe that we are both not registering for the chapters in case the other translator finishes first, Once Dreyakis starts on the next volume I will do a partial if neither of us has finished chapter 15 since it is a prologue to the next volume. [[User:Sashiko|Sashiko]] ([[User talk:Sashiko#top|talk]]) 15:13, 28 March 2013 (CDT)

Sashiko just a quick question is the untouchable 2062 a separate Sstory of the past?

Untouchable- takes place over a decade before the high school student characters during the World war three era mentioned in Miyuki's history book. As a prequel, it provides background material for some aspects of the Yokohama Arc and explains this comment- "You dared to touch that which cannot be touched. You dared to sully my scales. For that alone you all deserve to perish!" .(for those who don't know, the scales part refers to the fact that 'Tatsu' and 'Ryuu' can be spelled as dragon.) There is also another tidbit that will play into the Visitor Arc [[User:Sashiko|Sashiko]] ([[User talk:Sashiko#top|talk]]) 19:42, 21 April 2013 (CDT)

泉州-Quanzhou, a prefecture-level city in southern Fujian province

大漢-Dahan, possibly in Taiwan since the results include Dahan Creek and Dahan Institute of Technology, both in Taiwan

対馬-Tsushima, probably the island or the base (I don't remember if the base was already built up by the time of Untouchable)--Vampirecat--
Thank you and Dreyakis for the information [[User:Sashiko|Sashiko]] ([[User talk:Sashiko#top|talk]]) 19:42, 21 April 2013 (CDT)

Thankyou for all the hardwork sashiko.....appreciative fan

Thank you very much for the latest chapter. I'v really enjoyed the way of expanding Tatsuya's harem. It looks your J-E translations have greatly improved. You are our hope now for the future translations. Thanks again.--[[User:Glenrok|Glenrok]] ([[User talk:Glenrok|talk]]) 03:23, 12 August 2013 (CDT)

Thank you so much for the translations!

is this new chapter a side story?[[User:James Gobilzkame|V33]] 23:07, 19 October 2013 (CDT)

Yes, the new chapter is a side story that takes place just after the Yokohama Arc

Thanks for the translations Sashiko! [[User:TheAEmix|TheAEmix]] ([[User talk:TheAEmix|talk]]) 05:22, 13 November 2013 (CST)

Thanks for your translations. I'm looking forward to the next volume as well.

Thanks for keep giving us your translations, makes me happy to see the project advancing, even if you don't care :< (jk)

Don't care about What????
:About me being happy xd

hello. thanks for your work. i think you forgot add something in vol.12 chapter 9. the talk about fumiya and ayako admission to 4°high, and abou minami being the new guardian of miyuki. also, they mention yokohama but i think the should say Hanamatsu. i had read the chinese translation. may be i'm wrong.

No, i checked it is the kanji for Hamamatsu not Yokohama, I just recognized the kanji they both shared and didn't do a doublecheck [[User:Sashiko|Sashiko]] ([[User talk:Sashiko#top|talk]])

Thank you for all of your translations!

Thank you for the translations! I really enjoyed the last two chapters you did of Volume 13 and hope you continue!

Is there any reason for going straight from chapter 1 to 3? Is someone else translating chapters 2 and 4 (in that case, why didn't they register it)? Thanks for your work.--[[User:Kemm|Kemm]] ([[User talk:Kemm|talk]]) 09:35, 6 June 2014 (CDT)

:Kemm, Since Sashiko is a direct Japanese to English Translator, and Dreyakis is a Chinese to English Translator for this title, when he was finished with ch1, and the chinese translations hadn't yet reached ch3, he continued to translate starting with ch3 to allow dreyakis to jump in when ready. [[User:TheAEmix|TheAEmix]] ([[User talk:TheAEmix|talk]]) 17:50, 6 June 2014 (CDT)
::Ah, OK. Thanks for the info. It's weird for the Chinede translation to be at that point, when they usually try to get it out as quickly as possible.--[[User:Kemm|Kemm]] ([[User talk:Kemm|talk]]) 18:25, 6 June 2014 (CDT)

Editing the page is easy. Anyone who's involved can do so. But you should first talk to Dreyakis. And you should already be familiar with the content that comes before v8. --[[User:Larethian|larethian]] ([[User talk:Larethian|talk]]) 00:10, 31 January 2013 (CST)

== Volume 5 ==

Thanks for translating, but Please finish the last chapter of volume 5, I've been waitin for like 20 months to continue reading this series and I'm honestly starting to hate this series due to not being able to continue it Sorry if I'm unreasonable but fuck this is horrible

Volume 5 is pure filler and has no bearing on the main storyline... while I agree it should be finished whenever someone has the time, nothing is preventing you from continuing to read the series.

After much thought on how to respond to the introduction of this thread, I have come to one conclusion: Even with the ''''please'''', having some stranger arbitrarily request that I do 40 hours of work for their personal enjoyment is a real motivation killer.

Please do not put motivation killers on this page. [[User:Sashiko|Sashiko]] ([[User talk:Sashiko#top|talk]])

I'm sorry to say this, but I dont even care if this makes you stop translating at this point
I love you for going to the trouble to let people read it, but I'm strong believer in do it right or dont do it all
I want to say thank you but its almost impossible when I cant continue this series
You cant skip a Numbered volume, if it was 4.5 or used a misc title like MM, could totally skip it but its insulting to skip a main volume

Frankly, the above comment is so "insulting" that I almost deleted it in disgust, but then again, we are all entitled to express our opinions. I'd just like to say that I personally (and I'm sure many others feel the same as well) am really grateful to you and other translators for taking the time and effort to translate so that everyone else can enjoy the novel. Thanks so much and I hope you won't let those motivation killers get to you.

First, I would like thank the person who defended me. Second, let me put it clearly, I am not upset that someone wants a particular part translated, I am upset over the the fact that someone feels they have the right to demand that I translate something (and despite the 'please' it felt like a demand). Especially when the phrasing of their request implied that they had not read the General Format/Style Guideline which someone who had considered contributing to the project as either an editor or translator would have done.[[User:Sashiko|Sashiko]] ([[User talk:Sashiko#top|talk]])

First I would like to thank you for translating this LN. Second, I really Hope you're not affected by the above comments. Because I for sure is grateful to you for translating this LN (and because of that i can read it hahaha!!!!).

Don't worry too much about punctuation. We can cover that for you based on the context of the text, as long as we can tell where the sentences start and end. I try to avoid changing the actual words as much as possible. You should also ignore the person telling you to have the browser translate it -- pretty sure BT staff does not like that just off the legal issues alone.

Thank you-Sashiko

Thanks for part 3, enjoyed reading it. You were faster than your estimation of a month :) PS to do you signature, you should be using 4 ~, or hitting the signature button top left, so its transformed into the wiki sig. --[[User:Bilagaana|Bilagaana]] ([[User talk:Bilagaana|talk]]) 00:42, 17 January 2013 (CST)

Good job with chapter 3 of Presidential election and the queen. I didn't expect that development, but I like where it's heading. And I agree with the way you do it, not using computer-aided translation. It certainly is a bit slower, but results are something nobody using software assist - even those professional programs out there - can match. And should you ever wish to deploy your skills to translating stuff like serious dissertations for some publisher, computer aids can only get you in trouble. --[[User:Wa-totem|Wa-totem]]

Thanks for completing Presidential election and the queen. Do you have plans to translate the rest of the volume? --[[User:Bilagaana|Bilagaana]] ([[User talk:Bilagaana|talk]]) 23:19, 28 January 2013 (CST)

I realy hope that the rest of the volume is translated not 100% sure if its canon but i am really enjoying the content
and thanks for all the hard work

Thanks for translating chapter 3! Great story arc, glad to see you get it out there. :) [[User:D4mi3n|d4mi3n]] ([[User talk:D4mi3n|talk]])

Thank you for the translations bro.--[[User:Naavi|Naavi]] ([[User talk:Naavi|talk]]) 20:28, 29 January 2013 (CST)

Thanks for the translations! If you are having trouble deciding which chapter of Vol. 5 to start on next, I'm looking forward to "The dubious lolicon". XD Anyway thanks again, glad to see another translator join in on the project. - Ruckkus

Sashiko-san, were you also the one who translate Vol08-Ch07 and Vol08-Ch08? Please fill the one who tranlated it in the registration page. I'm a little confused. [[User:Mada|Mada]] ([[User talk:Mada|talk]]) 08:50, 28 February 2013 (CST)

No, I was not. I have only translated the chapters I have registered for.[[User:Sashiko|Sashiko]] ([[User talk:Sashiko#top|talk]]) 12:20, 28 February 2013 (CST)

Is chapter 4 complete or not?

Excuse me, it is about the last part of Mahouka Kouka no Rettosei Vol.8 Chapter 4. Isn't page 61 and page 62 supposed there? Thank you and my apologies before.

Hi, Thank you for your Translations. I was curious as to who is translation Chapters 15 and 16 of Volume 8. The Registration page doesn't show anyone as having registered for those 2 chapters and you have 17,18 ready and waiting for us (which i am desperately eager to read). Thanks again for all your hard work.

I am working on Chapter 15 however, when Seitsuki has the time to translate he can easily translate faster than I can so I believe that we are both not registering for the chapters in case the other translator finishes first, Once Dreyakis starts on the next volume I will do a partial if neither of us has finished chapter 15 since it is a prologue to the next volume.

Sashiko just a quick question is the untouchable 2062 a separate Sstory of the past?

Untouchable- takes place over a decade before the high school student characters during the World war three era mentioned in Miyuki's history book. As a prequel, it provides background material for some aspects of the Yokohama Arc and explains this comment- "You dared to touch that which cannot be touched. You dared to sully my scales. For that alone you all deserve to perish!" .(for those who don't know, the scales part refers to the fact that 'Tatsu' and 'Ryuu' can be spelled as dragon.) There is also another tidbit that will play into the Visitor Arc [[User:Sashiko|Sashiko]] ([[User talk:Sashiko#top|talk]]) 19:42, 21 April 2013 (CDT)

泉州-Quanzhou, a prefecture-level city in southern Fujian province

大漢-Dahan, possibly in Taiwan since the results include Dahan Creek and Dahan Institute of Technology, both in Taiwan

対馬-Tsushima, probably the island or the base (I don't remember if the base was already built up by the time of Untouchable)--Vampirecat--
Thank you and Dreyakis for the information [[User:Sashiko|Sashiko]] ([[User talk:Sashiko#top|talk]]) 19:42, 21 April 2013 (CDT)

Thankyou for all the hardwork sashiko.....appreciative fan

Thank you very much for the latest chapter. I'v really enjoyed the way of expanding Tatsuya's harem. It looks your J-E translations have greatly improved. You are our hope now for the future translations. Thanks again.--[[User:Glenrok|Glenrok]] ([[User talk:Glenrok|talk]]) 03:23, 12 August 2013 (CDT)

Thank you so much for the translations!

is this new chapter a side story?[[User:James Gobilzkame|V33]] 23:07, 19 October 2013 (CDT)

Yes, the new chapter is a side story that takes place just after the Yokohama Arc

Thanks for the translations Sashiko! [[User:TheAEmix|TheAEmix]] ([[User talk:TheAEmix|talk]]) 05:22, 13 November 2013 (CST)

Thanks for your translations. I'm looking forward to the next volume as well.

Thanks for keep giving us your translations, makes me happy to see the project advancing, even if you don't care :< (jk)

Don't care about What????
:About me being happy xd

hello. thanks for your work. i think you forgot add something in vol.12 chapter 9. the talk about fumiya and ayako admission to 4°high, and abou minami being the new guardian of miyuki. also, they mention yokohama but i think the should say Hanamatsu. i had read the chinese translation. may be i'm wrong.

No, i checked it is the kanji for Hamamatsu not Yokohama, I just recognized the kanji they both shared and didn't do a doublecheck [[User:Sashiko|Sashiko]] ([[User talk:Sashiko#top|talk]])

Thank you for all of your translations!

Editing the page is easy. Anyone who's involved can do so. But you should first talk to Dreyakis. And you should already be familiar with the content that comes before v8. --[[User:Larethian|larethian]] ([[User talk:Larethian|talk]]) 00:10, 31 January 2013 (CST)
