==On Tsukumodo Volume 2 - Self==&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m wondering, in Kishitani&#039;s memory sharing session, you gave a comment that Kishitani (the real one) refers to his copy as himself in the memories, but in most of the memories, Kishitani refers to his copy as &#039;he&#039;. So which one do you think is actually right? [[User:Properparadox|Properparadox]] ([[User talk:Properparadox|talk]]) 09:43, 3 July 2015 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
: I took a quick look at the original and it seems like the usage is also mixed. He refers to the person in the memory-sharing sequence as &amp;quot;I&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;copy&amp;quot;. The situation in Japanese is a bit different, though, since first-person and third-person are grammatically the same and personal pronouns are used very sparsely. [[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] ([[User talk:EusthEnoptEron#top|talk]]) 10:41, 3 July 2015 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

==About Hakomari==&lt;br /&gt;
May I know what font you use for the colored illust? I would like to photoshop vol 6 for personal use (and maybe for public use as well) and want to keep it the same with your photoshopping. Or have you done vol 6 already? I want to help, if it&#039;s the latter. [[User:Castor212|Castor212]] ([[User talk:Castor212|talk]]) 04:48, 2 June 2015 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
:I&#039;m using Georgia for them. That said, I already typeset the illustrations ages ago, but haven&#039;t uploaded them for some reason that I don&#039;t remember. Probably because the texts aren&#039;t fully edited. So if you&#039;re planning to slap on English text, you may want to wait. [[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] ([[User talk:EusthEnoptEron#top|talk]]) 15:55, 2 June 2015 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Aye aye then. Is volume 7 is still in your schedule, btw? [[User:Castor212|Castor212]] ([[User talk:Castor212|talk]]) 21:08, 2 June 2015 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Excuse me EEE; may I know what&#039;s the status of volume 6 colored illustration? Also, is there any secific reason of why you use different font for vol 7 illustration? Just asking. Sorry if I sound nagging, but this is really gnawing at me since it&#039;s the only thing that felt incomplete :p&lt;br /&gt;

Wrote to you a while back. If you&#039;ve read the message, can you please give some kind of answer, so I know that you didn&#039;t miss it. If you did miss it, here&#039;s the copypaste:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It&#039;s been quite a while since I left some tsukumodo questions [[Talk:Tsukumodo:Volume 2 Make-Up|here]]. Just wanted to say that half of them still remain unanswered, just in case you forgot. Although, if you don&#039;t have time or don&#039;t feel like it, I would undestand.--[[User:idiffer|&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:darkred;font:bold 10pt kristen itc&amp;quot;&amp;gt;idif&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;]][[User talk:idiffer|&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:darkblack;font:bold 10pt kristen itc&amp;quot;&amp;gt;fer&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;]] 14:44, 9 February 2015 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But this could be left for later. the most urgent question is from vol 3 chapter 2:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
i had an argument with another translator regarding the relic (string + key). he thinks the string is something like a metallic wire or guitar string (much less flexible). i think it&#039;s more like yarn, thread or rope (very flexible). who is right?&lt;br /&gt;
: Sorry about that -- I was just being lazy. Anyway, regarding your question: the text just says &amp;quot;[http://dictionary.goo.ne.jp/leaf/je2/4074/m1u/%E7%B3%B8/ 糸]&amp;quot;, which can be both in my view, so it&#039;s up to interpretation, I guess. I personally pictured it to myself as a thin wire because it was also used in a wind-up mechanism.

== Kamisu Reina Series Audio Novel Project Permission ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hey, ich wollte fragen, ob ich ein Hoerbuch von der Kamisu Reina Series erstellen darf. [[User:chocolatehearta|chocolatehearta]]([[User talk:chocolatehearta|talk]])&lt;br /&gt;

== Permission for Hakomari as an Audio Novel Project ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hi, first of all, I&#039;d like to thank you so much for the awesome translation you did of Hakomari, it looks professional and polished, well done! I&#039;d like to ask if you&#039;re going to continue it if more volumes of Hakomari come out.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Now, for my main subject. Since you seem to be quite active, I&#039;m sure you&#039;ve noticed that an [[Audio_Recordings|Audio Novel section]] has opened up in the sidebar. That&#039;s the result of discussion between myself and some other enthusiasts in the forums, and what we aim to do is create audiobooks of translation scripts done by contributors. However, due to recent discussion, we&#039;ve come to the conclusion that it is best to ask permission from the translators themselves, if their scripts can be used as Audio Novel bases, because of the section in the Translation Common Agreement that states that all translations belong to their respective translators. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Therefore, as respectfully as possible, I&#039;d like to request permission to use your translation of Hakomari as a script for an Audio Novel Project of Utsuro no Hako to Zero no Maria. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Again, I love your work, and thanks for reading! - [[User:Defan752|Defan752]]([[User talk:Defan752|talk]]) - 3:40 PM, July 8, 2014 (UTC+8)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: Hey, great to hear that you like Hakomari. I&#039;m definitely going to translate the last volume once it comes out.&lt;br /&gt;
: Regarding the audio novel projects; yes, I&#039;ve heard of them and I would love to see Hakomari among them. ;) So feel free to use my translations for your project and good luck! [[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] ([[User talk:EusthEnoptEron#top|talk]]) 09:29, 8 July 2014 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

== Asking permission for creating the main Page Gekkou (Indonesian) and Translate it ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hey, thank you for the English translation of Gekkou, I really loved it, so great, just for notice, I read Hakomari too, and it was really awesome, and your translation is great too ^^ Thanks for both hardwork, Hakomari and Gekkou.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And so, to the main reason, I&#039;m asking permission to creating the main page for Gekkou in Indonesian, and translate it, because I don&#039;t know what should I do, I just make it, then submit it, but forget to ask Permission, so you&#039;re the one that come to my mind, though.&lt;br /&gt;
So, just you know, I&#039;m starting to translate, feel free to put critic. Thank you for reading this ^^ - [[User:Azurey|Azurey]]([[User talk:Azurey|talk]]) - 3:40 AM, 6 July 2014 (GMT +7)&lt;br /&gt;

Gekkou:The Stubborn Will of the Crescent Moon&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
By any change, did anyone sudmit you the japanese version on Gekkou:The Stubborn Will of the Crescent Moon? Just wondering...&lt;br /&gt;
: Nah, but there were a few people that offered to translate the Chinese version, although I haven&#039;t heard of them ever since. Nockgeneer (the guy who posted the introduction) might still be at it, though, since it&#039;s only been two months since he started.

== Asking permission for creating a wikia page for Tsukumodo Antique Shop ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hi,&lt;br /&gt;
let me first thank you for all the wonderful translations that you&#039;ve done till date, and also for the one&#039;s that you&#039;ll be doing in future.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Personally Tsukumodo series is one of my favorites. So I was thinking about creating a wikia page for it using your translations as the source material, and that&#039;s only if you are okay with it and if it&#039;s not fine with you then I will delete everything that I&#039;ve done. The story till now is so fantastic and fascinating that I would like to tell about this series to all the people out there who are looking for a good read.&lt;br /&gt;
Again, thanks for all the translation works.&lt;br /&gt;

:Hey, great to hear that you&#039;re enjoying Tsukumodo. I hope that I can find some more time to put into this project in the near future -- I want to translate the last volume badly.

Well then, will start working on that wiki. Till date i had just done some edits and this will be my first original page. So, i&#039;m pretty slow and might screw up a little. If possible, drop by the page sometime. Once again, thankyou for the trans and will eagerly be waiting for further updates on Tsukumodo :) --[[User:Agar9691|Agar9691]] ([[User talk:Agar9691|talk]]) 22:17, 27 July 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

== Permission for &amp;quot;Utsuro no Hako to Zero no Maria (French)&amp;quot;  ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Maybe it&#039;s a little late to ask for the permission now, since the page is already made (I&#039;m sorryyyyyy &amp;gt;&amp;lt;), but can I make a french translated version Of Hakomari ?  I planed to translate your version, since nobody did it for those who can&#039;t read english &amp;gt;&amp;lt;&lt;br /&gt;
Ah, and I want to use this post to give you a big thanks for this light novel. I enjoyed Zero no Maria a lot, thanks to you :D&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: Heyho - glad you enjoyed it and are tackling a French translation! (And hey, maybe that&#039;ll help me brush up my French skills, which are in a meager state even after years of taking lessons (albeit involuntarily)! OK, probably not... :D)&lt;br /&gt;
:Also, don&#039;t worry: actually, Misogi already asked me for permission. Besides, I don&#039;t really mind what my translations are used for. :D Just ask me if anything&#039;s unclear to you.&lt;br /&gt;

== Hen Ai Saikederikku ==&lt;br /&gt;
yo, wollt mich mal erdreisten zu fragen ob jemand spass dran hät Hen Ai Saikederikku  zu überstzen? (von mir aus auf deutsch aber englisch macht wohl echt mehr sinn &amp;gt;&amp;lt;). und mit jemand meine ich dich...&lt;br /&gt;
: Lustig - erst vor zwei Tagen hat mich jemand das genau gleiche gefragt. Die Antwort bleibt aber leider gleich: Ich fand Hen&#039;ai Psychedelic recht langweilig und habe deshalb kein Interesse an einer Übersetzung. Dazu kommt, dass Mamiya die Serie anscheinend eh nicht weiterführt, von dem her... [[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] ([[User talk:EusthEnoptEron#top|talk]]) 18:23, 5 April 2014 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

==Tsukumodo TL help + translate extension==&lt;br /&gt;
hi, it&#039;s me again. couldn&#039;t find you on your irc, so gonna ask here. can you pls clarify a few lines in tsukumodo vol 1 ch 4?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Mm? Well, if you only open it, sure.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(meaning? that she opens it and does nothing else? is this his joke?)&lt;br /&gt;
: While she asks in the traditional sense, he only means to say that she &amp;quot;may take a look&amp;quot; because he doesn&#039;t actually want to give it to her / wants it back later.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;It&#039;ll be time for work in no time if I just hang around in my crumbly 9 square feet apartment.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(is he deliberately understating the number of feet?)&lt;br /&gt;
: Whoops. Pretty bad mistake on my part. It&#039;s supposed to be 80 square feet, or 4 1/2 tatami mats if you want to keep the Japanese counter-part.&lt;br /&gt;
And are you by any chance planning on using the TL extension on tsukumodo? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

: Good catch. I probably tried to phrase it by using &amp;quot;forget&amp;quot; first, but then changed my mind and got things mixed up. Anyway, the correct translation is something along the lines of &amp;quot;Never would I forget the face that he&#039;d shown me then.&amp;quot; [[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] ([[User talk:EusthEnoptEron#top|talk]]) 10:37, 25 April 2014 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

same chapter:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But there are people who have to rely on such a superstition (can&#039;t talk about others).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(the thing in the parenthesis - what is it? a reminder for herself? cause she already talked about others...) &lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;i&amp;gt;He&amp;lt;/i&amp;gt; is just noting (in an ironic tone) that he resorted to that superstition himself.&lt;br /&gt;
If you do, one of my important part-timers might come to a bad end.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(like in a visual novel?)&lt;br /&gt;
: It works, but it&#039;s not an explicit reference to a bad end. A more accurate translation would be that she&#039;d lose one of her part-timers, or that one of them would die.&lt;br /&gt;
I prepared chicken sauteed with a potato salad, &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(so the chicken is cooked together with the salad in the same frying pan?)&lt;br /&gt;
: Dammit, mixed French with English. Should be &amp;quot;chicken sautée&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;sauteed chicken&amp;quot;, and in addition to that dish a potato salad.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Note?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(doeas this line belong to towako or saki?)&lt;br /&gt;
: From the context, I assume it belongs to Saki.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
btw, is it alright to use your talk page like this or do u want to move this somewhere else? i&#039;m sure i&#039;ll have more questions as i translate. on a side note, good thing it benefits you too - the error catching thing... and are you going to TL vol 3 ch 1? the other translator hasn&#039;t been active in a long time + i&#039;ve read he uses machine translations.--[[User:idiffer|&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:darkred;font:bold 10pt kristen itc&amp;quot;&amp;gt;idif&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;]][[User talk:idiffer|&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:darkblack;font:bold 10pt kristen itc&amp;quot;&amp;gt;fer&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;]] 15:50, 25 April 2014 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
: Actually, I don&#039;t mind either way. But perhaps, putting your comments on the talk page of the chapter would be easier. Regarding the first chapter: Last I heard of him (January, 2014) he still wanted to finish the translation. For now, I started with the first chapter of V4 -- I&#039;ll look into the matter after that. At any rate, I&#039;ll make sure to give his translation a thorough TLC pass to make sure it&#039;s correct.

: Okay, I tried to answer your questions. No problem re: volume 4; I&#039;m excited that we&#039;re slowly getting to the main story line. v5c1 will finally present the antagonists. I didn&#039;t have anyone edit the translations for v4 yet, although I do plan to do so myself should I ever find the time. I&#039;m glad if it already reads well, though. :D [[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] ([[User talk:EusthEnoptEron#top|talk]]) 13:29, 18 September 2014 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

Sorry to bother you again so soon, but I ended up being the TLC for the russian translation of &amp;quot;Tabi ni deyou&amp;quot; (which is inevitably done from your translation), so if you could answer [[Talk:Tabi ni Deyou:Dream| these 6 questions]] when you have the time, that would be awesome. &lt;br /&gt;

What? Who? When did you translate this and why haven&#039;t I noticed it from the beginning? This is an excellent series and you translated an entire volume a month...that&#039;s ungodly. I just wanted to write here to say how awesome it&#039;s been reading this series (just finished the first book--I hated the way the author had me with the &#039;owner&#039; mystery because of his cheap shot) and that I seriously congratulate you on your translations. Sure, they aren&#039;t perfect, but you clearly tell this wonderful story, and I&#039;m definitely glad I read it. I truly hope you continue translating ^^. &lt;br /&gt;

Though, I&#039;m still not sure just how readable I can translate an already quite complicated book like this. But for now, I think I&#039;ll keep translating at least until volume 4 (since volume 3 is my favorite one and hell of a cliff-hanger).

For Utsuro no Hako to Zero no Maria, why edit &amp;quot;fufu&amp;quot; to &amp;quot;hehe&amp;quot;? The former is more of a sinister/evil strange laugh, and it doesn&#039;t translate to &amp;quot;hehe&amp;quot;. For this series, that kind of laugh is fitting of the characters.

:Mh, actually I was planning to change most of them. Fufu just seems so non-English. But I agree that it&#039;s not really replaceable 1:1. [[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] 19:41, 24 August 2010 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

In anime/manga/games/LN/etc, &amp;quot;fufu/fu fu fu&amp;quot; is normally associated with maniacal characters or evil to smugged, cold, sadistic, just plain amused characters who are devising a plan, etc. It&#039;d be betraying their archetype design if we had them say hehe or something else entirely. I&#039;ll go through each chapter to see if there are any more changes and will revert them back to fufu... If that&#039;s fine with you. If yes, then, if you can recall any part where you originally went with hehe instead of fufu during your draft, can you change those too?

&lt;br /&gt;
Hmmm, as far as i know it´s more accurate to say that is a &amp;quot;meaningful laugh&amp;quot;, where it´s abit on the mocking side, is a bit hard to describe but it doesn´t truly have to be done by an evil character; afterall, since it´s &amp;quot;meaningul&amp;quot;, it generally points at something, or indicates something that the character finds amusing, in fact is rather hard to use it in any other form without it feeling out of place.(Well in fact i can think of one instance in Hakomari that´s a good example of it´s general use but...well i´m already quite long-winded as it is...) &lt;br /&gt;

I love the story, and I have time during my school break, so I&#039;m doing some major edits offline (I&#039;m rewriting paragraphs and such to make it read much more smoothly, but with the same content and stuff.) so after I finish the first chapter, where should I put it so you can check my changes for accuracy? It&#039;s in LaTeX for now, so I can make a PDF anytime, but when I finish editing the chapter I&#039;ll make a version with wiki markup instead. [[User:CarVac|CarVac]] 00:46, 15 March 2011 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
:Oh, that&#039;s great. :D For checks you can send it to me via mail (umikarayattekita[a.t]yahoo.co.jp) or you could just update the wiki page directly (shouldn&#039;t be problematic if there are some minor inaccuracies). Another alternative would be using my private wiki where I translate on. ;) Whatever suits you best~ [[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] 01:51, 15 March 2011 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;

hey ive just got to say that this book was an amazing read and a great way to spend my last week&lt;br /&gt;
and i had a question i know this was asked in February but i was wondering if there was any news of a 5th volume yet?&lt;br /&gt;
:Glad you liked it. There&#039;s no news of a 5th volume yet, but of a [http://www.baka-tsuki.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=44&amp;amp;t=3161&amp;amp;start=315#p82619 new series by him].

== I think there&#039;s some overlap in taste here... ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;ve been reading light novels here for a while...since vol 4 of Haruhi was halfway done.  Some I like, some I don&#039;t.  It&#039;s a matter of taste, like anything else.  I&#039;ve read both the Utsuru no Hako series and Gekkou and they&#039;re both at the top of a short list of favorites.  Of the two, I think I prefer vol 1 of Hako slightly just because it scratches my science fiction itch along with my psychological horror itch.  Great stuff.  My Japanese isn&#039;t good enough to translate, but I&#039;m happy to edit these (as I did with all of Gekkou) because they&#039;re so different/interesting and not at all like the generic LN offering here.  I don&#039;t know how you&#039;re finding the good stuff that nobody else has even heard of, but keep up the good work! [[User:Senile seinen|Senile seinen]] 20:22, 12 July 2011 (UCT)&lt;br /&gt;
:嬉しいことを言うね。 Very delighted to see that you enjoyed them as much as I did.

Hello, EusthEnoptEron. Thanks for translation of Gekkou and of course HakoMari. Well, I and some more people are currently translating Gekkou using your translation as base. So, I thought, we need your permission for this even if we aren&#039;t going to post it here.&lt;br /&gt;

If you are unable to due to time or any other reason could you make some good summaries at least? That would be appreciated too.&lt;br /&gt;
:Dantalian no Shoka is a great LN, but it lacks a main story that connects everything, which bothers me a little. I&#039;ll think about making a few summaries, but I guess you&#039;ll also be able to read some of the stories in the manga (though I have no idea how actively this one is translated). :D [[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] 10:26, 29 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

: Glad to hear that I met your taste. :D Any help with translating / editing would be most appreciated if you&#039;re confident in your skills. In concrete terms, Tsukumodo (the remaining novels), Gekkou (a short story) or Dantalian (although stalled) do still have stuff left to do. Though, if you haven&#039;t read that many light novels yet, I recommend staying a reader for a little longer, since that&#039;s a lot more fun than translating. ;] [[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] 15:55, 2 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

== Thanks for translating ==&lt;br /&gt;
Thanks for taking the time to translate the novels. I would really like to thank you in particular for translating Maria, I&#039;m looking every week for updates to the 5th volume!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== How to best express my appreciation for your awesome efforts! ==&lt;br /&gt;
You&#039;re responsible for translating most of my favorites - Utsuro no Hako,&lt;br /&gt;
Gekkou, Our Journey to the End of the Ceasing World - to name just a few. I just started (maybe overenthusiastically, orz) tackling edits to Tsukumodo Antique Shop in thanks, but was wondering what your priorities are for editor efforts: for instance, if you feel Gekkou is complete already, so we shouldn&#039;t spend time there; otoh, if you want Utsuro no Hako to be uber-polished, etc etc&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Anyway, much thanks (and sorry if my edits are too intrusive)...I haven&#039;t done a lot yet, but figured I should check in early rather than be a pain in the butt...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[User:Grrarr|Grrarr]] 08:38, 12 July 2012 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
: First of all, thanks a bunch for the edits you made so far. :D Made my day. And don&#039;t worry about being too intrusive: if it sound better/more correct/more natural, then it&#039;s a good edit, and it will help me pick up new words, figures of speech and whatnot, since I try to check every edit. In fact, for me the most nerve-racking thing while translating is being unable to find a good-sounding and natural wording, so I&#039;m always delighted if someone makes the stuff flow better.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:As for priorities: Hopefully sometime during the next week I&#039;m going to start working on Hakomari 5, which will have top priority. Translation and editing will take place on my private wiki because I want the translation to be as good as possible. If you want to join (in fact, anyone who wants to join) just drop me a message in the forums or at umikarayattekita{AT}yahoo.co.jp and you&#039;ll get &#039;&#039;&#039;instant access&#039;&#039;&#039; (not wanting to sound like a pr0n site).&lt;br /&gt;
:* Apart from Hakomari, I&#039;d like to focus mainly on Tsukumodo, since there&#039;s still a whack-load of work to be done there (mostly translation-wise).&lt;br /&gt;
:* Gekkou: Considered completed. I&#039;m satisfied with its editing state (pretty much the only project I am)&lt;br /&gt;
:* Tabi ni Deyou: Don&#039;t plan on putting much more work into it. Was just a little one-man side-project.&lt;br /&gt;
:* Hakomari &amp;lt;5: I&#039;ve pretty much given up on getting them into shape. :D yyr has gone through them and erased a lot of errors though.&lt;br /&gt;

I really mean it. I sure took my time to come here and express my gratitude. Anyway, i must say it. All the works you translated had some significance for me. All of them. Utsuro no Hako to Zero no Maria made me like reading in the first place, it was something like two years ago (that&#039;s why I&#039;ve said that I took too long of a time to came here and express my gratitude). Gekkou made me laugh for days, damn, I&#039;m still laughing right now even tough it&#039;s not a story I&#039;m supposed to laugh about. Anyway, Tabi ni Deyou was beautiful. I can&#039;t really say about Dantalian since I&#039;ve still didn&#039;t read the novel, but I like the story from the anime and manga. And now I&#039;m reading Tsukumodo Antique Shop. I&#039;ve just ended the first volume and really, it was great. Well enough blabbering, I&#039;m here to give you my thanks but also to cheer you on Tsukumodo, it&#039;s a great novel and I&#039;d really like to read it to end. I hope that some of my gratitude reached you since I would have never known any of these novels if not for your hard work. While I&#039;m at it I would like to ask you permission to translate Utsuro and Tsukumodo into Brazillian Portuguese. Well, technically I&#039;m already translating Utsuro for about some time. You can check it [http://lightnovelproject.blogspot.com.br/ here] in the label &amp;quot;Projetos&amp;quot; presently the links are suspended for a new revision on the chapters but you can still see the project page if you want. Thanks for taking your time to read this, and again, thank you very much for your hard work!&lt;br /&gt;

This: [http://www.baka-tsuki.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=15&amp;amp;t=5477 Jinrui wa Suitai Shimashita].  It has the &#039;fading world&#039; quality of [[Tabi ni Deyou, Horobiyuku Sekai no Hate Made]] along with a more pointed version of the social commentary snark of [[Gekkou]].  It&#039;s more farcical than your usual choices, but it&#039;s definitely as intellectual as anything else you&#039;ve done, and it recently had a well-done anime.  But nobody seems to want to pick it up as a translation project either here or commercially.  Not every translator could manage it (there&#039;s some slang, some puns (some translingual puns)), but I think you could.-[[User:Senile seinen|Senile seinen]] ([[User talk:Senile seinen|talk]]) 15:55, 28 December 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
: Aah, Jintai, yes, I&#039;ve read the first novel and recently watched the anime. I like it. And funnily enough, I&#039;ve already considered helping out the guy who has started translating it over there at TLWiki. So chances aren&#039;t zero.

I hadn&#039;t bothered to look at Romeo&#039;s CV before now.  A majority of his work is visual novels.  Interestingly I&#039;ve recently played through Cross Channel, which is his most famous vnovel.  CC has some clever elements but didn&#039;t wow me.  Now that I know that the same guy wrote both, I can see the similarities in the narrator&#039;s internal commentary and the underlying theme of people who are broken in interesting ways interacting.  I&#039;ll be waiting for the AURA movie as well - his narrative voice seems better suited to books and serial formats.  The Chuunibyou anime that came out this year seems to have a very similar plot to AURA.  I&#039;m curious to see his treatment of the idea.  In any event, consider doing Jintai - the TLWiki guy did one chapter two years ago.  I have the feeling that it&#039;s your project if you want it. -[[User:Senile seinen|Senile seinen]] ([[User talk:Senile seinen|talk]]) 10:48, 29 December 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

For your godly translation speed and insane amount of work (your translations are more and more natural sounding every time), I just wanted to thank you again. Man, the cliffhanger here was just too much as usual. I always read utsuro straight through until it&#039;s done, so I know I really love it, so I must really love your translations, so great work and thanks again!&lt;br /&gt;

I was wondering, do you think get the new novel by Eiji mikage? I would like to read it, and it is fascinated with HakoMari...&lt;br /&gt;

: Heyho, cool that you enjoyed Hakomari. :D At this point, I have no plans of translating Mikage&#039;s new series, since I don&#039;t have enough energy to pick up any new projects and I want to finish Hakomari/Tsukumodo first.

Yo EEE(Hope you don&#039;t mind the abbre.),&lt;br /&gt;
I ran into a Chinese version of the Gekkou Short Story: &amp;quot;Stubborn will of the Crescent Moon&amp;quot; a few days back and, since I can read Chinese, would like to continue with the translation to English. I need an editor to vet through my version though, and my command of the language is not really outstanding as it is. Add thereto my schedule for this month is pretty tight too. Anyway, if anyone is interested in continuing with this project, please contact me via my alt email: goink0goink@gmail.com.&lt;br /&gt;

== Question about Utsuro no Hako to Zero no Maria ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hi! I just registered after getting to volume 3 of this light novel series. Until the revelations in chapter 1, vol. 3, I had been working under the assumption that all the bits you underlined had a special meaning to them. My working theory was that they were some sort of red truth like in Umineko. That was completely smashed when I several lies showed up in the chapter that I don&#039;t seem possible to be tricks of some sort. I tried doing some google searches but couldn&#039;t find any references to all the underlining you have done for the series.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So I was wondering if you could please explain the meaning of underlined phrases. Thanks.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
--April 22, 2015-- TomaO2&lt;br /&gt;
: To be honest, I don&#039;t know whether or not Mikage had something special in mind when using underlines (or dots in the case of the original Japanese text). Most likely they&#039;re just supposed to emphasize certain passages, so I wouldn&#039;t read too much into them. [[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] ([[User talk:EusthEnoptEron#top|talk]]) 11:36, 22 April 2015 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:: I&#039;m going to have to apologize. I stopped reading right after Daiya revealed himself as the owner of the box after game three, which I assumed meant that the underlined text from the earlier game was a blatant lie. I&#039;ve gotten further now and it was, in fact, the truth and the actual box master of the game of idleness has been revealed. I suppose if I had spelled out exactly what I thought was the lie earlier, you could have corrected me at the time but I didn&#039;t want to write down spoilers at the time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::Therefore, I&#039;m going back to my belief that everything underlined is a truth of some sort. Either because the other person believes (even if he&#039;s wrong) or, if Kazuki thinks it to be true, then a literal truth of the story. That&#039;s my working theory of how underlined text works. Thanks for taking the time to answer my question.&lt;br /&gt;

::: Here&#039;s the original text if you want to do some research of your own:&lt;br /&gt;

: This part at the end of 27,754 (2) has got me really stumped. &amp;quot;The ground becomes unstable and tastes sugary for some reason—not on the tongue, but on the skin.&amp;quot; In context it kinda makes sense - I imagine them slowly falling into an abyss of pure white while feeling the remains of the environment on their skin - I suppose.

I&#039;m wondering, in Kishitani&#039;s memory sharing session, you gave a comment that Kishitani (the real one) refers to his copy as himself in the memories, but in most of the memories, Kishitani refers to his copy as &#039;he&#039;. So which one do you think is actually right? [[User:Properparadox|Properparadox]] ([[User talk:Properparadox|talk]]) 09:43, 3 July 2015 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
: I took a quick look at the original and it seems like the usage is also mixed. He refers to the person in the memory-sharing sequence as &amp;quot;I&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;copy&amp;quot;. The situation in Japanese is a bit different, though, since first-person and third-person are grammatically the same and personal pronouns are used very sparsely.

:I&#039;m using Georgia for them. That said, I already typeset the illustrations ages ago, but haven&#039;t uploaded them for some reason that I don&#039;t remember.

But this could be left for later. the most urgent question is from vol 3 chapter 2:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
i had an argument with another translator regarding the relic (string + key). he thinks the string is something like a metallic wire or guitar string (much less flexible). i think it&#039;s more like yarn, thread or rope (very flexible). who is right?&lt;br /&gt;
: Sorry about that -- I was just being lazy. Anyway, regarding your question: the text just says &amp;quot;[http://dictionary.goo.ne.jp/leaf/je2/4074/m1u/%E7%B3%B8/ 糸]&amp;quot;, which can be both in my view, so it&#039;s up to interpretation, I guess.

== Permission for Hakomari as an Audio Novel Project ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hi, first of all, I&#039;d like to thank you so much for the awesome translation you did of Hakomari, it looks professional and polished, well done! I&#039;d like to ask if you&#039;re going to continue it if more volumes of Hakomari come out.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Now, for my main subject. Since you seem to be quite active, I&#039;m sure you&#039;ve noticed that an [[Audio_Recordings|Audio Novel section]] has opened up in the sidebar. That&#039;s the result of discussion between myself and some other enthusiasts in the forums, and what we aim to do is create audiobooks of translation scripts done by contributors. However, due to recent discussion, we&#039;ve come to the conclusion that it is best to ask permission from the translators themselves, if their scripts can be used as Audio Novel bases, because of the section in the Translation Common Agreement that states that all translations belong to their respective translators. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Therefore, as respectfully as possible, I&#039;d like to request permission to use your translation of Hakomari as a script for an Audio Novel Project of Utsuro no Hako to Zero no Maria. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
By any change, did anyone sudmit you the japanese version on Gekkou:The Stubborn Will of the Crescent Moon? Just wondering...&lt;br /&gt;
: Nah, but there were a few people that offered to translate the Chinese version, although I haven&#039;t heard of them ever since. Nockgeneer (the guy who posted the introduction) might still be at it, though, since it&#039;s only been two months since he started.

== Asking permission for creating a wikia page for Tsukumodo Antique Shop ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hi,&lt;br /&gt;
let me first thank you for all the wonderful translations that you&#039;ve done till date, and also for the one&#039;s that you&#039;ll be doing in future.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Personally Tsukumodo series is one of my favorites. So I was thinking about creating a wikia page for it using your translations as the source material, and that&#039;s only if you are okay with it and if it&#039;s not fine with you then I will delete everything that I&#039;ve done. The story till now is so fantastic and fascinating that I would like to tell about this series to all the people out there who are looking for a good read.&lt;br /&gt;
Again, thanks for all the translation works.&lt;br /&gt;

Well then, will start working on that wiki. Till date i had just done some edits and this will be my first original page. So, i&#039;m pretty slow and might screw up a little.

Maybe it&#039;s a little late to ask for the permission now, since the page is already made (I&#039;m sorryyyyyy &amp;gt;&amp;lt;), but can I make a french translated version Of Hakomari ?  I planed to translate your version, since nobody did it for those who can&#039;t read english &amp;gt;&amp;lt;&lt;br /&gt;
Ah, and I want to use this post to give you a big thanks for this light novel. I enjoyed Zero no Maria a lot, thanks to you :D&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: Heyho - glad you enjoyed it and are tackling a French translation! (And hey, maybe that&#039;ll help me brush up my French skills, which are in a meager state even after years of taking lessons (albeit involuntarily)! OK, probably not... :D)&lt;br /&gt;
:Also, don&#039;t worry: actually, Misogi already asked me for permission. Besides, I don&#039;t really mind what my translations are used for. :D Just ask me if anything&#039;s unclear to you.&lt;br /&gt;

: Lustig - erst vor zwei Tagen hat mich jemand das genau gleiche gefragt. Die Antwort bleibt aber leider gleich: Ich fand Hen&#039;ai Psychedelic recht langweilig und habe deshalb kein Interesse an einer Übersetzung.

==Tsukumodo TL help + translate extension==&lt;br /&gt;
hi, it&#039;s me again. couldn&#039;t find you on your irc, so gonna ask here. can you pls clarify a few lines in tsukumodo vol 1 ch 4?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Mm? Well, if you only open it, sure.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(meaning? that she opens it and does nothing else? is this his joke?)&lt;br /&gt;
: While she asks in the traditional sense, he only means to say that she &amp;quot;may take a look&amp;quot; because he doesn&#039;t actually want to give it to her / wants it back later.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;It&#039;ll be time for work in no time if I just hang around in my crumbly 9 square feet apartment.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(is he deliberately understating the number of feet?)&lt;br /&gt;
: Whoops. Pretty bad mistake on my part. It&#039;s supposed to be 80 square feet, or 4 1/2 tatami mats if you want to keep the Japanese counter-part.&lt;br /&gt;
And are you by any chance planning on using the TL extension on tsukumodo? &lt;br /&gt;

: Good catch. I probably tried to phrase it by using &amp;quot;forget&amp;quot; first, but then changed my mind and got things mixed up.

same chapter:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But there are people who have to rely on such a superstition (can&#039;t talk about others).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(the thing in the parenthesis - what is it? a reminder for herself? cause she already talked about others...) &lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;i&amp;gt;He&amp;lt;/i&amp;gt; is just noting (in an ironic tone) that he resorted to that superstition himself.&lt;br /&gt;
If you do, one of my important part-timers might come to a bad end.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(like in a visual novel?)&lt;br /&gt;
: It works, but it&#039;s not an explicit reference to a bad end. A more accurate translation would be that she&#039;d lose one of her part-timers, or that one of them would die.&lt;br /&gt;
I prepared chicken sauteed with a potato salad, &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(so the chicken is cooked together with the salad in the same frying pan?)&lt;br /&gt;
: Dammit, mixed French with English. Should be &amp;quot;chicken sautée&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;sauteed chicken&amp;quot;, and in addition to that dish a potato salad.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Note?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(doeas this line belong to towako or saki?)&lt;br /&gt;
: From the context, I assume it belongs to Saki.&lt;br /&gt;

btw, is it alright to use your talk page like this or do u want to move this somewhere else? i&#039;m sure i&#039;ll have more questions as i translate. on a side note, good thing it benefits you too - the error catching thing... and are you going to TL vol 3 ch 1? the other translator hasn&#039;t been active in a long time + i&#039;ve read he uses machine translations.--[[User:idiffer|&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:darkred;font:bold 10pt kristen itc&amp;quot;&amp;gt;idif&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;]][[User talk:idiffer|&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:darkblack;font:bold 10pt kristen itc&amp;quot;&amp;gt;fer&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;]] 15:50, 25 April 2014 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
: Actually, I don&#039;t mind either way. But perhaps, putting your comments on the talk page of the chapter would be easier. Regarding the first chapter: Last I heard of him (January, 2014) he still wanted to finish the translation. For now, I started with the first chapter of V4 -- I&#039;ll look into the matter after that.

What? Who? When did you translate this and why haven&#039;t I noticed it from the beginning? This is an excellent series and you translated an entire volume a month...that&#039;s ungodly. I just wanted to write here to say how awesome it&#039;s been reading this series (just finished the first book--I hated the way the author had me with the &#039;owner&#039; mystery because of his cheap shot) and that I seriously congratulate you on your translations. Sure, they aren&#039;t perfect, but you clearly tell this wonderful story, and I&#039;m definitely glad I read it. I truly hope you continue translating ^^. &lt;br /&gt;

Thanks for the edits on Hidan no Aria most of the time I do the translations at night before I go to sleep so mistakes are often made especially since Japanese is my third language. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I would also like to thank you for your translation of Utsuru no hako to zero no maria because I have read it, and it was a great novel.&lt;br /&gt;

arigatou for translating this series of novel, you manage to update this series very fast(heard the 4th volume in japan just came this june). i very like it. and i hope u never get bored o translate this series(i&#039;m beging on you please he..he, and i wonder how u can learn japanese language? i too want to learn japanese as well, but i don&#039;t know the effective way to learn it, so i hope u can give some tips or advise to us what is the effective way to learn japanese.&lt;br /&gt;

Hi, EusthEnoptEron.&lt;br /&gt;

I&#039;ve found many positive comments about this novel. Could you tell me where I can read this novel in japanese language?&lt;br /&gt;
: Either buy the novels at YesAsia / bk1 or you should find the raws without much trouble through google. (except of volume4. There are no scans yet) [[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] 09:28, 9 August 2010 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

:Thanks, but I don&#039;t think it needs one. Considering the unconventional chaptering and the fact that there&#039;s no table of contents in the original novel at all, I want the reader to see as little as possible of the flow of the story.

I commented on how awesome you were at translating, and how awesome this series was, so I wanted to do something for when you finished, too. Honestly--you rock. That story made my day.

&lt;br /&gt;
For Utsuro no Hako to Zero no Maria, why edit &amp;quot;fufu&amp;quot; to &amp;quot;hehe&amp;quot;? The former is more of a sinister/evil strange laugh, and it doesn&#039;t translate to &amp;quot;hehe&amp;quot;. For this series, that kind of laugh is fitting of the characters. I hope you didn&#039;t change all the fufu to hehe in your translations! (including Dantalian no Shoka) [[User:Imagker|Imagker]] 19:38, 24 August 2010 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Mh, actually I was planning to change most of them. Fufu just seems so non-English. But I agree that it&#039;s not really replaceable 1:1. [[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] 19:41, 24 August 2010 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In anime/manga/games/LN/etc, &amp;quot;fufu/fu fu fu&amp;quot; is normally associated with maniacal characters or evil to smugged, cold, sadistic, just plain amused characters who are devising a plan, etc. It&#039;d be betraying their archetype design if we had them say hehe or something else entirely. I&#039;ll go through each chapter to see if there are any more changes and will revert them back to fufu... If that&#039;s fine with you. If yes, then, if you can recall any part where you originally went with hehe instead of fufu during your draft, can you change those too? [[User:Imagker|Imagker]] 21:46, 24 August 2010 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:Well, okay then, I guess. There are some instances in volume 4 - I&#039;ll change them. [[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] 16:32, 26 August 2010 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Hmmm, as far as i know it´s more accurate to say that is a &amp;quot;meaningful laugh&amp;quot;, where it´s abit on the mocking side, is a bit hard to describe but it doesn´t truly have to be done by an evil character; afterall, since it´s &amp;quot;meaningul&amp;quot;, it generally points at something, or indicates something that the character finds amusing, in fact is rather hard to use it in any other form without it feeling out of place.(Well in fact i can think of one instance in Hakomari that´s a good example of it´s general use but...well i´m already quite long-winded as it is...) &lt;br /&gt;

I love the story, and I have time during my school break, so I&#039;m doing some major edits offline (I&#039;m rewriting paragraphs and such to make it read much more smoothly, but with the same content and stuff.) so after I finish the first chapter, where should I put it so you can check my changes for accuracy?

== I think there&#039;s some overlap in taste here... ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;ve been reading light novels here for a while...since vol 4 of Haruhi was halfway done.  Some I like, some I don&#039;t.  It&#039;s a matter of taste, like anything else.  I&#039;ve read both the Utsuru no Hako series and Gekkou and they&#039;re both at the top of a short list of favorites.  Of the two, I think I prefer vol 1 of Hako slightly just because it scratches my science fiction itch along with my psychological horror itch.  Great stuff.  My Japanese isn&#039;t good enough to translate, but I&#039;m happy to edit these (as I did with all of Gekkou) because they&#039;re so different/interesting and not at all like the generic LN offering here.

:Dantalian no Shoka is a great LN, but it lacks a main story that connects everything, which bothers me a little.

== How to best express my appreciation for your awesome efforts! ==&lt;br /&gt;
You&#039;re responsible for translating most of my favorites - Utsuro no Hako,&lt;br /&gt;
Gekkou, Our Journey to the End of the Ceasing World - to name just a few. I just started (maybe overenthusiastically, orz) tackling edits to Tsukumodo Antique Shop in thanks, but was wondering what your priorities are for editor efforts: for instance, if you feel Gekkou is complete already, so we shouldn&#039;t spend time there; otoh, if you want Utsuro no Hako to be uber-polished, etc etc&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Anyway, much thanks (and sorry if my edits are too intrusive)...I haven&#039;t done a lot yet, but figured I should check in early rather than be a pain in the butt...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[User:Grrarr|Grrarr]] 08:38, 12 July 2012 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
: First of all, thanks a bunch for the edits you made so far. :D Made my day. And don&#039;t worry about being too intrusive: if it sound better/more correct/more natural, then it&#039;s a good edit, and it will help me pick up new words, figures of speech and whatnot, since I try to check every edit. In fact, for me the most nerve-racking thing while translating is being unable to find a good-sounding and natural wording, so I&#039;m always delighted if someone makes the stuff flow better.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:As for priorities: Hopefully sometime during the next week I&#039;m going to start working on Hakomari 5, which will have top priority. Translation and editing will take place on my private wiki because I want the translation to be as good as possible. If you want to join (in fact, anyone who wants to join) just drop me a message in the forums or at umikarayattekita{AT}yahoo.co.jp and you&#039;ll get &#039;&#039;&#039;instant access&#039;&#039;&#039; (not wanting to sound like a pr0n site).&lt;br /&gt;
:* Apart from Hakomari, I&#039;d like to focus mainly on Tsukumodo, since there&#039;s still a whack-load of work to be done there (mostly translation-wise).&lt;br /&gt;
:* Gekkou: Considered completed. I&#039;m satisfied with its editing state (pretty much the only project I am)&lt;br /&gt;
:* Tabi ni Deyou: Don&#039;t plan on putting much more work into it. Was just a little one-man side-project.&lt;br /&gt;
:* Hakomari &amp;lt;5: I&#039;ve pretty much given up on getting them into shape. :D yyr has gone through them and erased a lot of errors though.&lt;br /&gt;

== Thank You So Much! ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I really mean it. I sure took my time to come here and express my gratitude. Anyway, i must say it. All the works you translated had some significance for me. All of them. Utsuro no Hako to Zero no Maria made me like reading in the first place, it was something like two years ago (that&#039;s why I&#039;ve said that I took too long of a time to came here and express my gratitude). Gekkou made me laugh for days, damn, I&#039;m still laughing right now even tough it&#039;s not a story I&#039;m supposed to laugh about. Anyway, Tabi ni Deyou was beautiful. I can&#039;t really say about Dantalian since I&#039;ve still didn&#039;t read the novel, but I like the story from the anime and manga. And now I&#039;m reading Tsukumodo Antique Shop. I&#039;ve just ended the first volume and really, it was great. Well enough blabbering, I&#039;m here to give you my thanks but also to cheer you on Tsukumodo, it&#039;s a great novel and I&#039;d really like to read it to end. I hope that some of my gratitude reached you since I would have never known any of these novels if not for your hard work. While I&#039;m at it I would like to ask you permission to translate Utsuro and Tsukumodo into Brazillian Portuguese. Well, technically I&#039;m already translating Utsuro for about some time. You can check it [http://lightnovelproject.blogspot.com.br/ here] in the label &amp;quot;Projetos&amp;quot; presently the links are suspended for a new revision on the chapters but you can still see the project page if you want. Thanks for taking your time to read this, and again, thank you very much for your hard work!&lt;br /&gt;
:Wow, I&#039;m really delighted that you enjoyed them so much. :D  After all, I also love them all myself. Also, feel free to use my translations, and just ask if you have trouble understanding something. --[[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] ([[User talk:EusthEnoptEron#top|talk]]) 14:52, 31 August 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

I loved both of them!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I would like to know if you are going to continue translating Tsukumodo Antique Shop, as I noticed you are not registered to be working on its translation. I would be glad to help with editing Tsukumodo Antique Shop, if you decide to continue working on it.&lt;br /&gt;

:As for Tsukumodo: Yes, I&#039;m still planning on completing it, although it&#039;s hard to gather enough motivation as the series is not exactly popular (no anime, etc). Every help is greatly appreciated, since knowing that my grammatical train wrecks are being taken care of would be a great weight off my shoulders. ;) Also, don&#039;t worry about being too aggressive should you decide to do some edits; I don&#039;t know about other translators, but I&#039;m &#039;&#039;very&#039;&#039; open-minded in this respect. By the way, I&#039;ve actually already started working on the next chapter on my personal wiki -- I&#039;m probably going to release by chapter from now on. -[[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] ([[User talk:EusthEnoptEron#top|talk]]) 10:27, 6 December 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

:Heyho~, glad you liked Hakomari. As for Tasogare-iro; unfortunately, although it&#039;s on my list, I haven&#039;t gotten around to reading the series, and I generally don&#039;t translate stuff I haven&#039;t read and come to love.

This: [http://www.baka-tsuki.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=15&amp;amp;t=5477 Jinrui wa Suitai Shimashita].  It has the &#039;fading world&#039; quality of [[Tabi ni Deyou, Horobiyuku Sekai no Hate Made]] along with a more pointed version of the social commentary snark of [[Gekkou]].  It&#039;s more farcical than your usual choices, but it&#039;s definitely as intellectual as anything else you&#039;ve done, and it recently had a well-done anime.  But nobody seems to want to pick it up as a translation project either here or commercially.  Not every translator could manage it (there&#039;s some slang, some puns (some translingual puns)), but I think you could.-[[User:Senile seinen|Senile seinen]] ([[User talk:Senile seinen|talk]]) 15:55, 28 December 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
: Aah, Jintai, yes, I&#039;ve read the first novel and recently watched the anime. I like it. And funnily enough, I&#039;ve already considered helping out the guy who has started translating it over there at TLWiki. So chances aren&#039;t zero. In the meanwhile, I&#039;m looking forward to the AURA movie -- Romeo&#039;s approach to the Chuunibyou phenomenon. ;) -[[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] ([[User talk:EusthEnoptEron#top|talk]]) 16:04, 28 December 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
I hadn&#039;t bothered to look at Romeo&#039;s CV before now.  A majority of his work is visual novels.  Interestingly I&#039;ve recently played through Cross Channel, which is his most famous vnovel.  CC has some clever elements but didn&#039;t wow me.  Now that I know that the same guy wrote both, I can see the similarities in the narrator&#039;s internal commentary and the underlying theme of people who are broken in interesting ways interacting.  I&#039;ll be waiting for the AURA movie as well - his narrative voice seems better suited to books and serial formats.  The Chuunibyou anime that came out this year seems to have a very similar plot to AURA.  I&#039;m curious to see his treatment of the idea.  In any event, consider doing Jintai - the TLWiki guy did one chapter two years ago.  I have the feeling that it&#039;s your project if you want it. -[[User:Senile seinen|Senile seinen]] ([[User talk:Senile seinen|talk]]) 10:48, 29 December 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
:Yes, coordinating with the other translator should be the smallest issue, since I know him. In fact, he&#039;s one of the few citizens of our cozy little Hakomari IRC channel. Anyway, first I&#039;ll have to deal with Hakomari and perhaps Tsukumodo. [[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] ([[User talk:EusthEnoptEron#top|talk]]) 14:31, 29 December 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

== Question about Utsuro no Hako to Zero no Maria ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hi! I just registered after getting to volume 3 of this light novel series. Until the revelations in chapter 1, vol. 3, I had been working under the assumption that all the bits you underlined had a special meaning to them. My working theory was that they were some sort of red truth like in Umineko. That was completely smashed when I several lies showed up in the chapter that I don&#039;t seem possible to be tricks of some sort. I tried doing some google searches but couldn&#039;t find any references to all the underlining you have done for the series.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So I was wondering if you could please explain the meaning of underlined phrases. Thanks.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
--April 22, 2015-- TomaO2&lt;br /&gt;
: To be honest, I don&#039;t know whether or not Mikage had something special in mind when using underlines (or dots in the case of the original Japanese text). Most likely they&#039;re just supposed to emphasize certain passages, so I wouldn&#039;t read too much into them. [[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] ([[User talk:EusthEnoptEron#top|talk]]) 11:36, 22 April 2015 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:: I&#039;m going to have to apologize. I stopped reading right after Daiya revealed himself as the owner of the box after game three, which I assumed meant that the underlined text from the earlier game was a blatant lie. I&#039;ve gotten further now and it was, in fact, the truth and the actual box master of the game of idleness has been revealed. I suppose if I had spelled out exactly what I thought was the lie earlier, you could have corrected me at the time but I didn&#039;t want to write down spoilers at the time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::Therefore, I&#039;m going back to my belief that everything underlined is a truth of some sort. Either because the other person believes (even if he&#039;s wrong) or, if Kazuki thinks it to be true, then a literal truth of the story. That&#039;s my working theory of how underlined text works. Thanks for taking the time to answer my question.&lt;br /&gt;

If you ever need somebody to help out, I&#039;m game for editing.  I have some experience as an author, so I can (hopefully) assist you with any English issues you may have.  Great job thus far--you&#039;ve been really working on that translation, it seems. - ZRonin&lt;br /&gt;
:That&#039;s great to hear! If you have some time to spare and could go through my stuff to rephrase the shoe-horned translations to more natural English, drop by at #UtsuroNoHako (irc.rizon.net) or contact me at umikarayattekita@yahoo.co.jp.

So... The translations won&#039;t be up until they are edited, am I wrong? Thanks for your work.--[[User:Kemm|Kemm]] ([[User talk:Kemm|talk]])&lt;br /&gt;
: Yup. For now I can just say that I plan on releasing them before August. [[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] ([[User talk:EusthEnoptEron#top|talk]]) 11:54, 30 June 2015 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

== Permission for &amp;quot;Utsuro no Hako to Zero no Maria&amp;quot; (Turkish) ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hey Eusth, I really loved your translation of the novel, in fact it&#039;s currently my favorite light novel series, so much so that I&#039;d love to share it in my own language on baka-tsuki, if you&#039;d allow it. Thanks for all the hard work!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: Hey there, LoyalBlue. That&#039;s great to hear! Feel free to use my translations and don&#039;t hesitate to ask if you have any questions regarding the translation. [[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] ([[User talk:EusthEnoptEron#top|talk]]) 08:47, 8 July 2015 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

::Hello again Senpai! (Yeah that&#039;s kinda awkward, I&#039;m sorry) I wanted to ask you something about the book. I tried looking for references but couldn&#039;t find any: the section in the 27,754th time - where Hoshino is kneeling in front of Maria and starts talking in a &amp;quot;polite manner.&amp;quot; Is that a reference to a classic novel or something? Maybe I&#039;m getting it confused with Wuthering Heights and Heathcliffe or something. Just wanted to make sure so as to better explain the situation. Thanks! --[[User:LoyalBlue|LoyalBlue]] ([[User talk:LoyalBlue|talk]]) 19:38, 23 July 2015 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::: Hey there. Actually, I believe he&#039;s just talking in a theatric manner. At least, I didn&#039;t find anything it could refer to (neither did I find out what &amp;quot;Hathaway&amp;quot; refers to).&lt;br /&gt;
::: Here&#039;s the original text if you want to do some research of your own:&lt;br /&gt;
::: 「お迎えに上がりましたマリア姫。すべてを裏切り、すべてを敵に回し、ただあなた一人を護ると誓ったハサウェイでございます」&lt;br /&gt;
::: 「ずいぶん待たせたじゃないか、愛しのハサウェイ。窓際でお前を待つだけが取り柄の、スプーンより重いものを持ったことのない脆弱な私をよくもまあ待たせてくれたな。まさか２７７５３回もの間、たった一人で戦場へ放り出されるなんて思ってもいなかったぞ」&lt;br /&gt;
::: Also note that we might have gone a little overboard with the Elizabethan English. There&#039;s no need to make it sound *that* old-ish.&lt;br /&gt;
::: [[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] ([[User talk:EusthEnoptEron#top|talk]]) 23:40, 23 July 2015 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:::: Ding-dong the nuisance is back. (^_^&amp;quot;) I&#039;m sorry I&#039;ve been mulling this over for the last 3 hours along with another translator and we got nowhere, in a very slow manner (almost like our protagonists!).&lt;br /&gt;
: This part at the end of 27,754 (2) has got me really stumped. &amp;quot;The ground becomes unstable and tastes sugary for some reason—not on the tongue, but on the skin.&amp;quot; In context it kinda makes sense - I imagine them slowly falling into an abyss of pure white while feeling the remains of the environment on their skin - I suppose. It&#039;s a bit confusing, could I request another explanation?--[[User:LoyalBlue|LoyalBlue]] ([[User talk:LoyalBlue|talk]]) 14:16, 1 August 2015 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:: Seems to me like &amp;quot;a white wave&amp;quot; wipes away the world and leaves everything white. The ground then turns all wobbly/soft like some sweet (= unstable. This analogy was lost in translation) but the sweetness reaches him through his skin / pores.

==Thanks!!==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just wanted to drop a small message to thank you for putting so much time and effort into the HakoMari translation.&lt;br /&gt;
If it weren&#039;t for you, I don&#039;t think I would have got the chance to ever experience this masterpiece. Its definitely the best light novel I&#039;ve read to date.&lt;br /&gt;
So, once again, thank you so much and I wish you the best of luck for all your future endeavors!!!&lt;br /&gt;

==About Hakomari==&lt;br /&gt;
May I know what font you use for the colored illust? I would like to photoshop vol 6 for personal use (and maybe for public use as well) and want to keep it the same with your photoshopping. Or have you done vol 6 already? I want to help, if it&#039;s the latter. [[User:Castor212|Castor212]] ([[User talk:Castor212|talk]]) 04:48, 2 June 2015 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
:I&#039;m using Georgia for them. That said, I already typeset the illustrations ages ago, but haven&#039;t uploaded them for some reason that I don&#039;t remember. Probably because the texts aren&#039;t fully edited. So if you&#039;re planning to slap on English text, you may want to wait.

It&#039;s been quite a while since I left some tsukumodo questions [[Talk:Tsukumodo:Volume 2 Make-Up|here]]. Just wanted to say that half of them still remain unanswered, just in case you forgot. Although, if you don&#039;t have time or don&#039;t feel like it, I would undestand.--[[User:idiffer|&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:darkred;font:bold 10pt kristen itc&amp;quot;&amp;gt;idif&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;]][[User talk:idiffer|&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:darkblack;font:bold 10pt kristen itc&amp;quot;&amp;gt;fer&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;]] 14:44, 9 February 2015 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But this could be left for later. the most urgent question is from vol 3 chapter 2:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
i had an argument with another translator regarding the relic (string + key). he thinks the string is something like a metallic wire or guitar string (much less flexible). i think it&#039;s more like yarn, thread or rope (very flexible). who is right?&lt;br /&gt;
: Sorry about that -- I was just being lazy. Anyway, regarding your question: the text just says &amp;quot;[http://dictionary.goo.ne.jp/leaf/je2/4074/m1u/%E7%B3%B8/ 糸]&amp;quot;, which can be both in my view, so it&#039;s up to interpretation, I guess. I personally pictured it to myself as a thin wire because it was also used in a wind-up mechanism.

== Permission for Hakomari as an Audio Novel Project ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hi, first of all, I&#039;d like to thank you so much for the awesome translation you did of Hakomari, it looks professional and polished, well done! I&#039;d like to ask if you&#039;re going to continue it if more volumes of Hakomari come out.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Now, for my main subject. Since you seem to be quite active, I&#039;m sure you&#039;ve noticed that an [[Audio_Recordings|Audio Novel section]] has opened up in the sidebar. That&#039;s the result of discussion between myself and some other enthusiasts in the forums, and what we aim to do is create audiobooks of translation scripts done by contributors. However, due to recent discussion, we&#039;ve come to the conclusion that it is best to ask permission from the translators themselves, if their scripts can be used as Audio Novel bases, because of the section in the Translation Common Agreement that states that all translations belong to their respective translators. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Therefore, as respectfully as possible, I&#039;d like to request permission to use your translation of Hakomari as a script for an Audio Novel Project of Utsuro no Hako to Zero no Maria. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

Hey, thank you for the English translation of Gekkou, I really loved it, so great, just for notice, I read Hakomari too, and it was really awesome, and your translation is great too ^^ Thanks for both hardwork, Hakomari and Gekkou.&lt;br /&gt;

And so, to the main reason, I&#039;m asking permission to creating the main page for Gekkou in Indonesian, and translate it, because I don&#039;t know what should I do, I just make it, then submit it, but forget to ask Permission, so you&#039;re the one that come to my mind, though.&lt;br /&gt;

Hi,&lt;br /&gt;
let me first thank you for all the wonderful translations that you&#039;ve done till date, and also for the one&#039;s that you&#039;ll be doing in future.&lt;br /&gt;

Personally Tsukumodo series is one of my favorites. So I was thinking about creating a wikia page for it using your translations as the source material, and that&#039;s only if you are okay with it and if it&#039;s not fine with you then I will delete everything that I&#039;ve done. The story till now is so fantastic and fascinating that I would like to tell about this series to all the people out there who are looking for a good read.&lt;br /&gt;

Maybe it&#039;s a little late to ask for the permission now, since the page is already made (I&#039;m sorryyyyyy &amp;gt;&amp;lt;), but can I make a french translated version Of Hakomari ?  I planed to translate your version, since nobody did it for those who can&#039;t read english &amp;gt;&amp;lt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Mm? Well, if you only open it, sure.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(meaning? that she opens it and does nothing else? is this his joke?)&lt;br /&gt;
: While she asks in the traditional sense, he only means to say that she &amp;quot;may take a look&amp;quot; because he doesn&#039;t actually want to give it to her / wants it back later.&lt;br /&gt;

(is he deliberately understating the number of feet?)&lt;br /&gt;
: Whoops. Pretty bad mistake on my part. It&#039;s supposed to be 80 square feet, or 4 1/2 tatami mats if you want to keep the Japanese counter-part.&lt;br /&gt;

But there are people who have to rely on such a superstition (can&#039;t talk about others).&lt;br /&gt;

(the thing in the parenthesis - what is it? a reminder for herself? cause she already talked about others...) &lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;i&amp;gt;He&amp;lt;/i&amp;gt; is just noting (in an ironic tone) that he resorted to that superstition himself.&lt;br /&gt;
If you do, one of my important part-timers might come to a bad end.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(like in a visual novel?)&lt;br /&gt;
: It works, but it&#039;s not an explicit reference to a bad end. A more accurate translation would be that she&#039;d lose one of her part-timers, or that one of them would die.&lt;br /&gt;

(so the chicken is cooked together with the salad in the same frying pan?)&lt;br /&gt;
: Dammit, mixed French with English. Should be &amp;quot;chicken sautée&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;sauteed chicken&amp;quot;, and in addition to that dish a potato salad.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Note?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;

btw, is it alright to use your talk page like this or do u want to move this somewhere else? i&#039;m sure i&#039;ll have more questions as i translate. on a side note, good thing it benefits you too - the error catching thing... and are you going to TL vol 3 ch 1? the other translator hasn&#039;t been active in a long time + i&#039;ve read he uses machine translations.--[[User:idiffer|&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:darkred;font:bold 10pt kristen itc&amp;quot;&amp;gt;idif&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;]][[User talk:idiffer|&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:darkblack;font:bold 10pt kristen itc&amp;quot;&amp;gt;fer&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;]] 15:50, 25 April 2014 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
: Actually, I don&#039;t mind either way. But perhaps, putting your comments on the talk page of the chapter would be easier. Regarding the first chapter: Last I heard of him (January, 2014) he still wanted to finish the translation. For now, I started with the first chapter of V4 -- I&#039;ll look into the matter after that. At any rate, I&#039;ll make sure to give his translation a thorough TLC pass to make sure it&#039;s correct.

What? Who? When did you translate this and why haven&#039;t I noticed it from the beginning? This is an excellent series and you translated an entire volume a month...that&#039;s ungodly. I just wanted to write here to say how awesome it&#039;s been reading this series (just finished the first book--I hated the way the author had me with the &#039;owner&#039; mystery because of his cheap shot) and that I seriously congratulate you on your translations. Sure, they aren&#039;t perfect, but you clearly tell this wonderful story, and I&#039;m definitely glad I read it. I truly hope you continue translating ^^. &lt;br /&gt;

Though, I&#039;m still not sure just how readable I can translate an already quite complicated book like this.

For Utsuro no Hako to Zero no Maria, why edit &amp;quot;fufu&amp;quot; to &amp;quot;hehe&amp;quot;? The former is more of a sinister/evil strange laugh, and it doesn&#039;t translate to &amp;quot;hehe&amp;quot;. For this series, that kind of laugh is fitting of the characters.

In anime/manga/games/LN/etc, &amp;quot;fufu/fu fu fu&amp;quot; is normally associated with maniacal characters or evil to smugged, cold, sadistic, just plain amused characters who are devising a plan, etc. It&#039;d be betraying their archetype design if we had them say hehe or something else entirely. I&#039;ll go through each chapter to see if there are any more changes and will revert them back to fufu... If that&#039;s fine with you. If yes, then, if you can recall any part where you originally went with hehe instead of fufu during your draft, can you change those too?

Hmmm, as far as i know it´s more accurate to say that is a &amp;quot;meaningful laugh&amp;quot;, where it´s abit on the mocking side, is a bit hard to describe but it doesn´t truly have to be done by an evil character; afterall, since it´s &amp;quot;meaningul&amp;quot;, it generally points at something, or indicates something that the character finds amusing, in fact is rather hard to use it in any other form without it feeling out of place.(Well in fact i can think of one instance in Hakomari that´s a good example of it´s general use but...well i´m already quite long-winded as it is...) &lt;br /&gt;

why don&#039;t you also translate the japanese inscription in vol.3 illustration?in other vol.(2 and 4 especially)they were meaningful and interesting insight into the charactr&#039;s thought that weren&#039;t in the novel.&lt;br /&gt;
furthermore,it really hurt me to see how much you work to edit/improve the novel(:even changing the past-present tense in previous novel);i of course apprectiate all you(and kadi) did to transqalte those 4 vol. so fast.No word could express how grateful i am-only money could-but i think you should no overwork yourself so much.but it&#039;s just my opinion;i hope i didn&#039;t offend you.&lt;br /&gt;

I love the story, and I have time during my school break, so I&#039;m doing some major edits offline (I&#039;m rewriting paragraphs and such to make it read much more smoothly, but with the same content and stuff.) so after I finish the first chapter, where should I put it so you can check my changes for accuracy? It&#039;s in LaTeX for now, so I can make a PDF anytime, but when I finish editing the chapter I&#039;ll make a version with wiki markup instead.

== I think there&#039;s some overlap in taste here... ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;ve been reading light novels here for a while...since vol 4 of Haruhi was halfway done.  Some I like, some I don&#039;t.  It&#039;s a matter of taste, like anything else.  I&#039;ve read both the Utsuru no Hako series and Gekkou and they&#039;re both at the top of a short list of favorites.  Of the two, I think I prefer vol 1 of Hako slightly just because it scratches my science fiction itch along with my psychological horror itch.  Great stuff.  My Japanese isn&#039;t good enough to translate, but I&#039;m happy to edit these (as I did with all of Gekkou) because they&#039;re so different/interesting and not at all like the generic LN offering here.  I don&#039;t know how you&#039;re finding the good stuff that nobody else has even heard of, but keep up the good work! [[User:Senile seinen|Senile seinen]] 20:22, 12 July 2011 (UCT)&lt;br /&gt;

Hello, EusthEnoptEron. Thanks for translation of Gekkou and of course HakoMari. Well, I and some more people are currently translating Gekkou using your translation as base. So, I thought, we need your permission for this even if we aren&#039;t going to post it here.&lt;br /&gt;

:Dantalian no Shoka is a great LN, but it lacks a main story that connects everything, which bothers me a little. I&#039;ll think about making a few summaries, but I guess you&#039;ll also be able to read some of the stories in the manga (though I have no idea how actively this one is translated). :D [[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] 10:26, 29 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

In concrete terms, Tsukumodo (the remaining novels), Gekkou (a short story) or Dantalian (although stalled) do still have stuff left to do. Though, if you haven&#039;t read that many light novels yet, I recommend staying a reader for a little longer, since that&#039;s a lot more fun than translating. ;] [[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] 15:55, 2 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

Thanks for taking the time to translate the novels. I would really like to thank you in particular for translating Maria, I&#039;m looking every week for updates to the 5th volume!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== How to best express my appreciation for your awesome efforts! ==&lt;br /&gt;
You&#039;re responsible for translating most of my favorites - Utsuro no Hako,&lt;br /&gt;
Gekkou, Our Journey to the End of the Ceasing World - to name just a few. I just started (maybe overenthusiastically, orz) tackling edits to Tsukumodo Antique Shop in thanks, but was wondering what your priorities are for editor efforts: for instance, if you feel Gekkou is complete already, so we shouldn&#039;t spend time there; otoh, if you want Utsuro no Hako to be uber-polished, etc etc&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Anyway, much thanks (and sorry if my edits are too intrusive)...I haven&#039;t done a lot yet, but figured I should check in early rather than be a pain in the butt...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[User:Grrarr|Grrarr]] 08:38, 12 July 2012 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
: First of all, thanks a bunch for the edits you made so far. :D Made my day. And don&#039;t worry about being too intrusive: if it sound better/more correct/more natural, then it&#039;s a good edit, and it will help me pick up new words, figures of speech and whatnot, since I try to check every edit. In fact, for me the most nerve-racking thing while translating is being unable to find a good-sounding and natural wording, so I&#039;m always delighted if someone makes the stuff flow better.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:As for priorities: Hopefully sometime during the next week I&#039;m going to start working on Hakomari 5, which will have top priority. Translation and editing will take place on my private wiki because I want the translation to be as good as possible. If you want to join (in fact, anyone who wants to join) just drop me a message in the forums or at umikarayattekita{AT}yahoo.co.jp and you&#039;ll get &#039;&#039;&#039;instant access&#039;&#039;&#039; (not wanting to sound like a pr0n site).&lt;br /&gt;
:* Apart from Hakomari, I&#039;d like to focus mainly on Tsukumodo, since there&#039;s still a whack-load of work to be done there (mostly translation-wise).&lt;br /&gt;
:* Gekkou: Considered completed. I&#039;m satisfied with its editing state (pretty much the only project I am)&lt;br /&gt;
:* Tabi ni Deyou: Don&#039;t plan on putting much more work into it. Was just a little one-man side-project.&lt;br /&gt;
:* Hakomari &amp;lt;5: I&#039;ve pretty much given up on getting them into shape. :D yyr has gone through them and erased a lot of errors though.&lt;br /&gt;

I really mean it. I sure took my time to come here and express my gratitude. Anyway, i must say it. All the works you translated had some significance for me. All of them. Utsuro no Hako to Zero no Maria made me like reading in the first place, it was something like two years ago (that&#039;s why I&#039;ve said that I took too long of a time to came here and express my gratitude). Gekkou made me laugh for days, damn, I&#039;m still laughing right now even tough it&#039;s not a story I&#039;m supposed to laugh about. Anyway, Tabi ni Deyou was beautiful. I can&#039;t really say about Dantalian since I&#039;ve still didn&#039;t read the novel, but I like the story from the anime and manga. And now I&#039;m reading Tsukumodo Antique Shop. I&#039;ve just ended the first volume and really, it was great. Well enough blabbering, I&#039;m here to give you my thanks but also to cheer you on Tsukumodo, it&#039;s a great novel and I&#039;d really like to read it to end. I hope that some of my gratitude reached you since I would have never known any of these novels if not for your hard work. While I&#039;m at it I would like to ask you permission to translate Utsuro and Tsukumodo into Brazillian Portuguese. Well, technically I&#039;m already translating Utsuro for about some time. You can check it [http://lightnovelproject.blogspot.com.br/ here] in the label &amp;quot;Projetos&amp;quot; presently the links are suspended for a new revision on the chapters but you can still see the project page if you want. Thanks for taking your time to read this, and again, thank you very much for your hard work!&lt;br /&gt;

This: [http://www.baka-tsuki.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=15&amp;amp;t=5477 Jinrui wa Suitai Shimashita].  It has the &#039;fading world&#039; quality of [[Tabi ni Deyou, Horobiyuku Sekai no Hate Made]] along with a more pointed version of the social commentary snark of [[Gekkou]].  It&#039;s more farcical than your usual choices, but it&#039;s definitely as intellectual as anything else you&#039;ve done, and it recently had a well-done anime.  But nobody seems to want to pick it up as a translation project either here or commercially.  Not every translator could manage it (there&#039;s some slang, some puns (some translingual puns)), but I think you could.-[[User:Senile seinen|Senile seinen]] ([[User talk:Senile seinen|talk]]) 15:55, 28 December 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
: Aah, Jintai, yes, I&#039;ve read the first novel and recently watched the anime. I like it. And funnily enough, I&#039;ve already considered helping out the guy who has started translating it over there at TLWiki. So chances aren&#039;t zero.

I hadn&#039;t bothered to look at Romeo&#039;s CV before now.  A majority of his work is visual novels.  Interestingly I&#039;ve recently played through Cross Channel, which is his most famous vnovel.  CC has some clever elements but didn&#039;t wow me.  Now that I know that the same guy wrote both, I can see the similarities in the narrator&#039;s internal commentary and the underlying theme of people who are broken in interesting ways interacting.  I&#039;ll be waiting for the AURA movie as well - his narrative voice seems better suited to books and serial formats.  The Chuunibyou anime that came out this year seems to have a very similar plot to AURA.  I&#039;m curious to see his treatment of the idea.  In any event, consider doing Jintai - the TLWiki guy did one chapter two years ago.  I have the feeling that it&#039;s your project if you want it. -[[User:Senile seinen|Senile seinen]] ([[User talk:Senile seinen|talk]]) 10:48, 29 December 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

For your godly translation speed and insane amount of work (your translations are more and more natural sounding every time), I just wanted to thank you again. Man, the cliffhanger here was just too much as usual.

Yo EEE(Hope you don&#039;t mind the abbre.),&lt;br /&gt;
I ran into a Chinese version of the Gekkou Short Story: &amp;quot;Stubborn will of the Crescent Moon&amp;quot; a few days back and, since I can read Chinese, would like to continue with the translation to English. I need an editor to vet through my version though, and my command of the language is not really outstanding as it is. Add thereto my schedule for this month is pretty tight too. Anyway, if anyone is interested in continuing with this project, please contact me via my alt email: goink0goink@gmail.com.&lt;br /&gt;

== Question about Utsuro no Hako to Zero no Maria ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hi! I just registered after getting to volume 3 of this light novel series. Until the revelations in chapter 1, vol. 3, I had been working under the assumption that all the bits you underlined had a special meaning to them. My working theory was that they were some sort of red truth like in Umineko. That was completely smashed when I several lies showed up in the chapter that I don&#039;t seem possible to be tricks of some sort. I tried doing some google searches but couldn&#039;t find any references to all the underlining you have done for the series.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So I was wondering if you could please explain the meaning of underlined phrases. Thanks.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
--April 22, 2015-- TomaO2&lt;br /&gt;
: To be honest, I don&#039;t know whether or not Mikage had something special in mind when using underlines (or dots in the case of the original Japanese text). Most likely they&#039;re just supposed to emphasize certain passages, so I wouldn&#039;t read too much into them. [[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] ([[User talk:EusthEnoptEron#top|talk]]) 11:36, 22 April 2015 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:: I&#039;m going to have to apologize. I stopped reading right after Daiya revealed himself as the owner of the box after game three, which I assumed meant that the underlined text from the earlier game was a blatant lie. I&#039;ve gotten further now and it was, in fact, the truth and the actual box master of the game of idleness has been revealed. I suppose if I had spelled out exactly what I thought was the lie earlier, you could have corrected me at the time but I didn&#039;t want to write down spoilers at the time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::Therefore, I&#039;m going back to my belief that everything underlined is a truth of some sort. Either because the other person believes (even if he&#039;s wrong) or, if Kazuki thinks it to be true, then a literal truth of the story. That&#039;s my working theory of how underlined text works. Thanks for taking the time to answer my question.&lt;br /&gt;

== Premission for Italian translations for Gekkou and Tsukumodo Antique Shop ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hy, I would like to translate Tsukumodo Antique Shop and Gekkou&#039;s novel in Italian in my blog and post also my tranlations on Baka-Tsuki but I&#039;m not accustomed with baka tsuki, so my I ask you if you help me to make italian tranlation page and put my tranlation here? You may also send me an email: kirishima_zen@yahoo.it. &lt;br /&gt;

You may also want to replace the &amp;quot;CAMBIO SCENA&amp;quot; with the symbols I&#039;ve put and add the images with wiki tags.

&lt;br /&gt;
But this could be left for later. the most urgent question is from vol 3 chapter 2:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
i had an argument with another translator regarding the relic (string + key). he thinks the string is something like a metallic wire or guitar string (much less flexible). i think it&#039;s more like yarn, thread or rope (very flexible). who is right?&lt;br /&gt;
: Sorry about that -- I was just being lazy. Anyway, regarding your question: the text just says &amp;quot;[http://dictionary.goo.ne.jp/leaf/je2/4074/m1u/%E7%B3%B8/ 糸]&amp;quot;, which can be both in my view, so it&#039;s up to interpretation, I guess. I personally pictured it to myself as a thin wire because it was also used in a wind-up mechanism.

== Permission for Hakomari as an Audio Novel Project ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hi, first of all, I&#039;d like to thank you so much for the awesome translation you did of Hakomari, it looks professional and polished, well done! I&#039;d like to ask if you&#039;re going to continue it if more volumes of Hakomari come out.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Now, for my main subject. Since you seem to be quite active, I&#039;m sure you&#039;ve noticed that an [[Audio_Recordings|Audio Novel section]] has opened up in the sidebar. That&#039;s the result of discussion between myself and some other enthusiasts in the forums, and what we aim to do is create audiobooks of translation scripts done by contributors. However, due to recent discussion, we&#039;ve come to the conclusion that it is best to ask permission from the translators themselves, if their scripts can be used as Audio Novel bases, because of the section in the Translation Common Agreement that states that all translations belong to their respective translators. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Therefore, as respectfully as possible, I&#039;d like to request permission to use your translation of Hakomari as a script for an Audio Novel Project of Utsuro no Hako to Zero no Maria. &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Maybe it&#039;s a little late to ask for the permission now, since the page is already made (I&#039;m sorryyyyyy &amp;gt;&amp;lt;), but can I make a french translated version Of Hakomari ?  I planed to translate your version, since nobody did it for those who can&#039;t read english &amp;gt;&amp;lt;&lt;br /&gt;
Ah, and I want to use this post to give you a big thanks for this light novel. I enjoyed Zero no Maria a lot, thanks to you :D&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: Heyho - glad you enjoyed it and are tackling a French translation! (And hey, maybe that&#039;ll help me brush up my French skills, which are in a meager state even after years of taking lessons (albeit involuntarily)! OK, probably not... :D)&lt;br /&gt;
:Also, don&#039;t worry: actually, Misogi already asked me for permission. Besides, I don&#039;t really mind what my translations are used for. :D Just ask me if anything&#039;s unclear to you.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
YAY ! Thanks a lot ! I&#039;ll work hard ;)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thanks for your remarks on the Project Page, they are correct. - [[User:Misogi|Misogi]] 17:30, 15 January 2014 (GMT+1)&lt;br /&gt;

== Hen Ai Saikederikku ==&lt;br /&gt;
yo, wollt mich mal erdreisten zu fragen ob jemand spass dran hät Hen Ai Saikederikku  zu überstzen? (von mir aus auf deutsch aber englisch macht wohl echt mehr sinn &amp;gt;&amp;lt;). und mit jemand meine ich dich...&lt;br /&gt;
: Lustig - erst vor zwei Tagen hat mich jemand das genau gleiche gefragt. Die Antwort bleibt aber leider gleich: Ich fand Hen&#039;ai Psychedelic recht langweilig und habe deshalb kein Interesse an einer Übersetzung. Dazu kommt, dass Mamiya die Serie anscheinend eh nicht weiterführt, von dem her... [[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] ([[User talk:EusthEnoptEron#top|talk]]) 18:23, 5 April 2014 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

==Tsukumodo TL help + translate extension==&lt;br /&gt;
hi, it&#039;s me again. couldn&#039;t find you on your irc, so gonna ask here. can you pls clarify a few lines in tsukumodo vol 1 ch 4?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Mm? Well, if you only open it, sure.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(meaning? that she opens it and does nothing else? is this his joke?)&lt;br /&gt;
: While she asks in the traditional sense, he only means to say that she &amp;quot;may take a look&amp;quot; because he doesn&#039;t actually want to give it to her / wants it back later.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;It&#039;ll be time for work in no time if I just hang around in my crumbly 9 square feet apartment.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(is he deliberately understating the number of feet?)&lt;br /&gt;
: Whoops. Pretty bad mistake on my part. It&#039;s supposed to be 80 square feet, or 4 1/2 tatami mats if you want to keep the Japanese counter-part.&lt;br /&gt;
And are you by any chance planning on using the TL extension on tsukumodo? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

I wasn&#039;t going to remember that face forever. &lt;br /&gt;

: Good catch. I probably tried to phrase it by using &amp;quot;forget&amp;quot; first, but then changed my mind and got things mixed up. Anyway, the correct translation is something along the lines of &amp;quot;Never would I forget the face that he&#039;d shown me then.&amp;quot; [[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] ([[User talk:EusthEnoptEron#top|talk]]) 10:37, 25 April 2014 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

same chapter:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But there are people who have to rely on such a superstition (can&#039;t talk about others).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(the thing in the parenthesis - what is it? a reminder for herself? cause she already talked about others...) &lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;i&amp;gt;He&amp;lt;/i&amp;gt; is just noting (in an ironic tone) that he resorted to that superstition himself.&lt;br /&gt;
If you do, one of my important part-timers might come to a bad end.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(like in a visual novel?)&lt;br /&gt;
: It works, but it&#039;s not an explicit reference to a bad end. A more accurate translation would be that she&#039;d lose one of her part-timers, or that one of them would die.&lt;br /&gt;
I prepared chicken sauteed with a potato salad, &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(so the chicken is cooked together with the salad in the same frying pan?)&lt;br /&gt;
: Dammit, mixed French with English. Should be &amp;quot;chicken sautée&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;sauteed chicken&amp;quot;, and in addition to that dish a potato salad.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Note?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(doeas this line belong to towako or saki?)&lt;br /&gt;
: From the context, I assume it belongs to Saki.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
btw, is it alright to use your talk page like this or do u want to move this somewhere else? i&#039;m sure i&#039;ll have more questions as i translate. on a side note, good thing it benefits you too - the error catching thing... and are you going to TL vol 3 ch 1? the other translator hasn&#039;t been active in a long time + i&#039;ve read he uses machine translations.--[[User:idiffer|&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:darkred;font:bold 10pt kristen itc&amp;quot;&amp;gt;idif&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;]][[User talk:idiffer|&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:darkblack;font:bold 10pt kristen itc&amp;quot;&amp;gt;fer&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;]] 15:50, 25 April 2014 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
: Actually, I don&#039;t mind either way. But perhaps, putting your comments on the talk page of the chapter would be easier. Regarding the first chapter: Last I heard of him (January, 2014) he still wanted to finish the translation. For now, I started with the first chapter of V4 -- I&#039;ll look into the matter after that. At any rate, I&#039;ll make sure to give his translation a thorough TLC pass to make sure it&#039;s correct.

What? Who? When did you translate this and why haven&#039;t I noticed it from the beginning? This is an excellent series and you translated an entire volume a month...that&#039;s ungodly. I just wanted to write here to say how awesome it&#039;s been reading this series (just finished the first book--I hated the way the author had me with the &#039;owner&#039; mystery because of his cheap shot) and that I seriously congratulate you on your translations. Sure, they aren&#039;t perfect, but you clearly tell this wonderful story, and I&#039;m definitely glad I read it. I truly hope you continue translating ^^. &lt;br /&gt;

Though, I&#039;m still not sure just how readable I can translate an already quite complicated book like this. But for now, I think I&#039;ll keep translating at least until volume 4 (since volume 3 is my favorite one and hell of a cliff-hanger).

How hard is this book to catch on early anyway? :/ Anyway, thank you so much! Haha, I&#039;d love to talk more but you have no email or instant messenger to contact you D: Oh well. It was an epic, amazing, awesome read. &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
For Utsuro no Hako to Zero no Maria, why edit &amp;quot;fufu&amp;quot; to &amp;quot;hehe&amp;quot;? The former is more of a sinister/evil strange laugh, and it doesn&#039;t translate to &amp;quot;hehe&amp;quot;. For this series, that kind of laugh is fitting of the characters. I hope you didn&#039;t change all the fufu to hehe in your translations! (including Dantalian no Shoka) [[User:Imagker|Imagker]] 19:38, 24 August 2010 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Mh, actually I was planning to change most of them. Fufu just seems so non-English. But I agree that it&#039;s not really replaceable 1:1. [[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] 19:41, 24 August 2010 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In anime/manga/games/LN/etc, &amp;quot;fufu/fu fu fu&amp;quot; is normally associated with maniacal characters or evil to smugged, cold, sadistic, just plain amused characters who are devising a plan, etc. It&#039;d be betraying their archetype design if we had them say hehe or something else entirely. I&#039;ll go through each chapter to see if there are any more changes and will revert them back to fufu... If that&#039;s fine with you. If yes, then, if you can recall any part where you originally went with hehe instead of fufu during your draft, can you change those too? [[User:Imagker|Imagker]] 21:46, 24 August 2010 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:Well, okay then, I guess. There are some instances in volume 4 - I&#039;ll change them. [[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] 16:32, 26 August 2010 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Hmmm, as far as i know it´s more accurate to say that is a &amp;quot;meaningful laugh&amp;quot;, where it´s abit on the mocking side, is a bit hard to describe but it doesn´t truly have to be done by an evil character; afterall, since it´s &amp;quot;meaningul&amp;quot;, it generally points at something, or indicates something that the character finds amusing, in fact is rather hard to use it in any other form without it feeling out of place.(Well in fact i can think of one instance in Hakomari that´s a good example of it´s general use but...well i´m already quite long-winded as it is...) &lt;br /&gt;

I love the story, and I have time during my school break, so I&#039;m doing some major edits offline (I&#039;m rewriting paragraphs and such to make it read much more smoothly, but with the same content and stuff.) so after I finish the first chapter, where should I put it so you can check my changes for accuracy? It&#039;s in LaTeX for now, so I can make a PDF anytime, but when I finish editing the chapter I&#039;ll make a version with wiki markup instead.

== I think there&#039;s some overlap in taste here... ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;ve been reading light novels here for a while...since vol 4 of Haruhi was halfway done.  Some I like, some I don&#039;t.  It&#039;s a matter of taste, like anything else.  I&#039;ve read both the Utsuru no Hako series and Gekkou and they&#039;re both at the top of a short list of favorites.  Of the two, I think I prefer vol 1 of Hako slightly just because it scratches my science fiction itch along with my psychological horror itch.  Great stuff.  My Japanese isn&#039;t good enough to translate, but I&#039;m happy to edit these (as I did with all of Gekkou) because they&#039;re so different/interesting and not at all like the generic LN offering here.  I don&#039;t know how you&#039;re finding the good stuff that nobody else has even heard of, but keep up the good work! [[User:Senile seinen|Senile seinen]] 20:22, 12 July 2011 (UCT)&lt;br /&gt;

:Dantalian no Shoka is a great LN, but it lacks a main story that connects everything, which bothers me a little.

Thanks for taking the time to translate the novels. I would really like to thank you in particular for translating Maria, I&#039;m looking every week for updates to the 5th volume!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== How to best express my appreciation for your awesome efforts! ==&lt;br /&gt;
You&#039;re responsible for translating most of my favorites - Utsuro no Hako,&lt;br /&gt;
Gekkou, Our Journey to the End of the Ceasing World - to name just a few. I just started (maybe overenthusiastically, orz) tackling edits to Tsukumodo Antique Shop in thanks, but was wondering what your priorities are for editor efforts: for instance, if you feel Gekkou is complete already, so we shouldn&#039;t spend time there; otoh, if you want Utsuro no Hako to be uber-polished, etc etc&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Anyway, much thanks (and sorry if my edits are too intrusive)...I haven&#039;t done a lot yet, but figured I should check in early rather than be a pain in the butt...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[User:Grrarr|Grrarr]] 08:38, 12 July 2012 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
: First of all, thanks a bunch for the edits you made so far. :D Made my day. And don&#039;t worry about being too intrusive: if it sound better/more correct/more natural, then it&#039;s a good edit, and it will help me pick up new words, figures of speech and whatnot, since I try to check every edit. In fact, for me the most nerve-racking thing while translating is being unable to find a good-sounding and natural wording, so I&#039;m always delighted if someone makes the stuff flow better.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:As for priorities: Hopefully sometime during the next week I&#039;m going to start working on Hakomari 5, which will have top priority. Translation and editing will take place on my private wiki because I want the translation to be as good as possible. If you want to join (in fact, anyone who wants to join) just drop me a message in the forums or at umikarayattekita{AT}yahoo.co.jp and you&#039;ll get &#039;&#039;&#039;instant access&#039;&#039;&#039; (not wanting to sound like a pr0n site).&lt;br /&gt;
:* Apart from Hakomari, I&#039;d like to focus mainly on Tsukumodo, since there&#039;s still a whack-load of work to be done there (mostly translation-wise).&lt;br /&gt;
:* Gekkou: Considered completed. I&#039;m satisfied with its editing state (pretty much the only project I am)&lt;br /&gt;
:* Tabi ni Deyou: Don&#039;t plan on putting much more work into it. Was just a little one-man side-project.&lt;br /&gt;

I really mean it. I sure took my time to come here and express my gratitude. Anyway, i must say it. All the works you translated had some significance for me. All of them. Utsuro no Hako to Zero no Maria made me like reading in the first place, it was something like two years ago (that&#039;s why I&#039;ve said that I took too long of a time to came here and express my gratitude). Gekkou made me laugh for days, damn, I&#039;m still laughing right now even tough it&#039;s not a story I&#039;m supposed to laugh about. Anyway, Tabi ni Deyou was beautiful. I can&#039;t really say about Dantalian since I&#039;ve still didn&#039;t read the novel, but I like the story from the anime and manga. And now I&#039;m reading Tsukumodo Antique Shop. I&#039;ve just ended the first volume and really, it was great. Well enough blabbering, I&#039;m here to give you my thanks but also to cheer you on Tsukumodo, it&#039;s a great novel and I&#039;d really like to read it to end. I hope that some of my gratitude reached you since I would have never known any of these novels if not for your hard work. While I&#039;m at it I would like to ask you permission to translate Utsuro and Tsukumodo into Brazillian Portuguese. Well, technically I&#039;m already translating Utsuro for about some time. You can check it [http://lightnovelproject.blogspot.com.br/ here] in the label &amp;quot;Projetos&amp;quot; presently the links are suspended for a new revision on the chapters but you can still see the project page if you want. Thanks for taking your time to read this, and again, thank you very much for your hard work!&lt;br /&gt;

Hi,&lt;br /&gt;

I read and write Chinese fluently. I would definitely be willing to translate Gekkou for you.&lt;br /&gt;

== Appreciation and a question ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
First of all, I want to thank you for your hard work on translating Gekkou and Tsukumodo Antique Shop!&lt;br /&gt;
I loved both of them!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I would like to know if you are going to continue translating Tsukumodo Antique Shop, as I noticed you are not registered to be working on its translation. I would be glad to help with editing Tsukumodo Antique Shop, if you decide to continue working on it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cheers,&lt;br /&gt;
--[[User:LoliDragon|loliDragon]]&lt;br /&gt;
:Glad you enjoyed your read. :D&lt;br /&gt;
:As for Tsukumodo: Yes, I&#039;m still planning on completing it, although it&#039;s hard to gather enough motivation as the series is not exactly popular (no anime, etc). Every help is greatly appreciated, since knowing that my grammatical train wrecks are being taken care of would be a great weight off my shoulders. ;) Also, don&#039;t worry about being too aggressive should you decide to do some edits; I don&#039;t know about other translators, but I&#039;m &#039;&#039;very&#039;&#039; open-minded in this respect. By the way, I&#039;ve actually already started working on the next chapter on my personal wiki -- I&#039;m probably going to release by chapter from now on. -[[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] ([[User talk:EusthEnoptEron#top|talk]]) 10:27, 6 December 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

well i know this is a bit to tad late but i just want to thank you for translating Utsuro no Hako to Zero no Maria... it a nice novel. and since it in a question topic i want to ask if you reconsider translating Tasogare-iro no Uta Tsukai as a side project. i know this is stepping on the line but i just want to ask -[[User:Anon10203|Anon10203]] 28 December 2012, at 10:27.&lt;br /&gt;
:Heyho~, glad you liked Hakomari. As for Tasogare-iro; unfortunately, although it&#039;s on my list, I haven&#039;t gotten around to reading the series, and I generally don&#039;t translate stuff I haven&#039;t read and come to love.

This: [http://www.baka-tsuki.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=15&amp;amp;t=5477 Jinrui wa Suitai Shimashita].  It has the &#039;fading world&#039; quality of [[Tabi ni Deyou, Horobiyuku Sekai no Hate Made]] along with a more pointed version of the social commentary snark of [[Gekkou]].  It&#039;s more farcical than your usual choices, but it&#039;s definitely as intellectual as anything else you&#039;ve done, and it recently had a well-done anime.  But nobody seems to want to pick it up as a translation project either here or commercially.  Not every translator could manage it (there&#039;s some slang, some puns (some translingual puns)), but I think you could.-[[User:Senile seinen|Senile seinen]] ([[User talk:Senile seinen|talk]]) 15:55, 28 December 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
: Aah, Jintai, yes, I&#039;ve read the first novel and recently watched the anime. I like it. And funnily enough, I&#039;ve already considered helping out the guy who has started translating it over there at TLWiki. So chances aren&#039;t zero. In the meanwhile, I&#039;m looking forward to the AURA movie -- Romeo&#039;s approach to the Chuunibyou phenomenon. ;) -[[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] ([[User talk:EusthEnoptEron#top|talk]]) 16:04, 28 December 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
I hadn&#039;t bothered to look at Romeo&#039;s CV before now.  A majority of his work is visual novels.  Interestingly I&#039;ve recently played through Cross Channel, which is his most famous vnovel.  CC has some clever elements but didn&#039;t wow me.  Now that I know that the same guy wrote both, I can see the similarities in the narrator&#039;s internal commentary and the underlying theme of people who are broken in interesting ways interacting.  I&#039;ll be waiting for the AURA movie as well - his narrative voice seems better suited to books and serial formats.  The Chuunibyou anime that came out this year seems to have a very similar plot to AURA.  I&#039;m curious to see his treatment of the idea.  In any event, consider doing Jintai - the TLWiki guy did one chapter two years ago.  I have the feeling that it&#039;s your project if you want it. -[[User:Senile seinen|Senile seinen]] ([[User talk:Senile seinen|talk]]) 10:48, 29 December 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
:Yes, coordinating with the other translator should be the smallest issue, since I know him. In fact, he&#039;s one of the few citizens of our cozy little Hakomari IRC channel. Anyway, first I&#039;ll have to deal with Hakomari and perhaps Tsukumodo. [[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] ([[User talk:EusthEnoptEron#top|talk]]) 14:31, 29 December 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

I ran into a Chinese version of the Gekkou Short Story: &amp;quot;Stubborn will of the Crescent Moon&amp;quot; a few days back and, since I can read Chinese, would like to continue with the translation to English.

== Question about Utsuro no Hako to Zero no Maria ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hi! I just registered after getting to volume 3 of this light novel series. Until the revelations in chapter 1, vol. 3, I had been working under the assumption that all the bits you underlined had a special meaning to them. My working theory was that they were some sort of red truth like in Umineko. That was completely smashed when I several lies showed up in the chapter that I don&#039;t seem possible to be tricks of some sort. I tried doing some google searches but couldn&#039;t find any references to all the underlining you have done for the series.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So I was wondering if you could please explain the meaning of underlined phrases. Thanks.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
--April 22, 2015-- TomaO2&lt;br /&gt;
: To be honest, I don&#039;t know whether or not Mikage had something special in mind when using underlines (or dots in the case of the original Japanese text). Most likely they&#039;re just supposed to emphasize certain passages, so I wouldn&#039;t read too much into them. [[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] ([[User talk:EusthEnoptEron#top|talk]]) 11:36, 22 April 2015 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:: I&#039;m going to have to apologize. I stopped reading right after Daiya revealed himself as the owner of the box after game three, which I assumed meant that the underlined text from the earlier game was a blatant lie. I&#039;ve gotten further now and it was, in fact, the truth and the actual box master of the game of idleness has been revealed. I suppose if I had spelled out exactly what I thought was the lie earlier, you could have corrected me at the time but I didn&#039;t want to write down spoilers at the time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::Therefore, I&#039;m going back to my belief that everything underlined is a truth of some sort. Either because the other person believes (even if he&#039;s wrong) or, if Kazuki thinks it to be true, then a literal truth of the story. That&#039;s my working theory of how underlined text works. Thanks for taking the time to answer my question.&lt;br /&gt;

It&#039;s been quite a while since I left some tsukumodo questions [[Talk:Tsukumodo:Volume 2 Make-Up|here]]. Just wanted to say that half of them still remain unanswered, just in case you forgot. Although, if you don&#039;t have time or don&#039;t feel like it, I would undestand.--[[User:idiffer|&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:darkred;font:bold 10pt kristen itc&amp;quot;&amp;gt;idif&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;]][[User talk:idiffer|&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:darkblack;font:bold 10pt kristen itc&amp;quot;&amp;gt;fer&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;]] 14:44, 9 February 2015 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But this could be left for later. the most urgent question is from vol 3 chapter 2:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
i had an argument with another translator regarding the relic (string + key). he thinks the string is something like a metallic wire or guitar string (much less flexible). i think it&#039;s more like yarn, thread or rope (very flexible). who is right?&lt;br /&gt;
: Sorry about that -- I was just being lazy. Anyway, regarding your question: the text just says &amp;quot;[http://dictionary.goo.ne.jp/leaf/je2/4074/m1u/%E7%B3%B8/ 糸]&amp;quot;, which can be both in my view, so it&#039;s up to interpretation, I guess. I personally pictured it to myself as a thin wire because it was also used in a wind-up mechanism.

== Permission for Hakomari as an Audio Novel Project ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hi, first of all, I&#039;d like to thank you so much for the awesome translation you did of Hakomari, it looks professional and polished, well done! I&#039;d like to ask if you&#039;re going to continue it if more volumes of Hakomari come out.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Now, for my main subject. Since you seem to be quite active, I&#039;m sure you&#039;ve noticed that an [[Audio_Recordings|Audio Novel section]] has opened up in the sidebar. That&#039;s the result of discussion between myself and some other enthusiasts in the forums, and what we aim to do is create audiobooks of translation scripts done by contributors. However, due to recent discussion, we&#039;ve come to the conclusion that it is best to ask permission from the translators themselves, if their scripts can be used as Audio Novel bases, because of the section in the Translation Common Agreement that states that all translations belong to their respective translators. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Therefore, as respectfully as possible, I&#039;d like to request permission to use your translation of Hakomari as a script for an Audio Novel Project of Utsuro no Hako to Zero no Maria. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Again, I love your work, and thanks for reading! - [[User:Defan752|Defan752]]([[User talk:Defan752|talk]]) - 3:40 PM, July 8, 2014 (UTC+8)&lt;br /&gt;

== Asking permission for creating the main Page Gekkou (Indonesian) and Translate it ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hey, thank you for the English translation of Gekkou, I really loved it, so great, just for notice, I read Hakomari too, and it was really awesome, and your translation is great too ^^ Thanks for both hardwork, Hakomari and Gekkou.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And so, to the main reason, I&#039;m asking permission to creating the main page for Gekkou in Indonesian, and translate it, because I don&#039;t know what should I do, I just make it, then submit it, but forget to ask Permission, so you&#039;re the one that come to my mind, though.&lt;br /&gt;
So, just you know, I&#039;m starting to translate, feel free to put critic. Thank you for reading this ^^ - [[User:Azurey|Azurey]]([[User talk:Azurey|talk]]) - 3:40 AM, 6 July 2014 (GMT +7)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
By any change, did anyone sudmit you the japanese version on Gekkou:The Stubborn Will of the Crescent Moon? Just wondering...&lt;br /&gt;
: Nah, but there were a few people that offered to translate the Chinese version, although I haven&#039;t heard of them ever since. Nockgeneer (the guy who posted the introduction) might still be at it, though, since it&#039;s only been two months since he started.

== Asking permission for creating a wikia page for Tsukumodo Antique Shop ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hi,&lt;br /&gt;
let me first thank you for all the wonderful translations that you&#039;ve done till date, and also for the one&#039;s that you&#039;ll be doing in future.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Personally Tsukumodo series is one of my favorites. So I was thinking about creating a wikia page for it using your translations as the source material, and that&#039;s only if you are okay with it and if it&#039;s not fine with you then I will delete everything that I&#039;ve done. The story till now is so fantastic and fascinating that I would like to tell about this series to all the people out there who are looking for a good read.&lt;br /&gt;
Again, thanks for all the translation works.&lt;br /&gt;

Maybe it&#039;s a little late to ask for the permission now, since the page is already made (I&#039;m sorryyyyyy &amp;gt;&amp;lt;), but can I make a french translated version Of Hakomari ?  I planed to translate your version, since nobody did it for those who can&#039;t read english &amp;gt;&amp;lt;&lt;br /&gt;
Ah, and I want to use this post to give you a big thanks for this light novel. I enjoyed Zero no Maria a lot, thanks to you :D&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: Heyho - glad you enjoyed it and are tackling a French translation! (And hey, maybe that&#039;ll help me brush up my French skills, which are in a meager state even after years of taking lessons (albeit involuntarily)! OK, probably not... :D)&lt;br /&gt;
:Also, don&#039;t worry: actually, Misogi already asked me for permission. Besides, I don&#039;t really mind what my translations are used for. :D Just ask me if anything&#039;s unclear to you.&lt;br /&gt;

: Lustig - erst vor zwei Tagen hat mich jemand das genau gleiche gefragt. Die Antwort bleibt aber leider gleich: Ich fand Hen&#039;ai Psychedelic recht langweilig und habe deshalb kein Interesse an einer Übersetzung.

==Tsukumodo TL help + translate extension==&lt;br /&gt;
hi, it&#039;s me again. couldn&#039;t find you on your irc, so gonna ask here. can you pls clarify a few lines in tsukumodo vol 1 ch 4?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Mm? Well, if you only open it, sure.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(meaning? that she opens it and does nothing else? is this his joke?)&lt;br /&gt;
: While she asks in the traditional sense, he only means to say that she &amp;quot;may take a look&amp;quot; because he doesn&#039;t actually want to give it to her / wants it back later.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;It&#039;ll be time for work in no time if I just hang around in my crumbly 9 square feet apartment.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(is he deliberately understating the number of feet?)&lt;br /&gt;
: Whoops. Pretty bad mistake on my part. It&#039;s supposed to be 80 square feet, or 4 1/2 tatami mats if you want to keep the Japanese counter-part.&lt;br /&gt;
And are you by any chance planning on using the TL extension on tsukumodo? &lt;br /&gt;

: Good catch. I probably tried to phrase it by using &amp;quot;forget&amp;quot; first, but then changed my mind and got things mixed up.

same chapter:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But there are people who have to rely on such a superstition (can&#039;t talk about others).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(the thing in the parenthesis - what is it? a reminder for herself? cause she already talked about others...) &lt;br /&gt;
: &amp;lt;i&amp;gt;He&amp;lt;/i&amp;gt; is just noting (in an ironic tone) that he resorted to that superstition himself.&lt;br /&gt;
If you do, one of my important part-timers might come to a bad end.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(like in a visual novel?)&lt;br /&gt;
: It works, but it&#039;s not an explicit reference to a bad end. A more accurate translation would be that she&#039;d lose one of her part-timers, or that one of them would die.&lt;br /&gt;
I prepared chicken sauteed with a potato salad, &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(so the chicken is cooked together with the salad in the same frying pan?)&lt;br /&gt;
: Dammit, mixed French with English. Should be &amp;quot;chicken sautée&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;sauteed chicken&amp;quot;, and in addition to that dish a potato salad.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Note?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(doeas this line belong to towako or saki?)&lt;br /&gt;

btw, is it alright to use your talk page like this or do u want to move this somewhere else? i&#039;m sure i&#039;ll have more questions as i translate. on a side note, good thing it benefits you too - the error catching thing... and are you going to TL vol 3 ch 1? the other translator hasn&#039;t been active in a long time + i&#039;ve read he uses machine translations.--[[User:idiffer|&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:darkred;font:bold 10pt kristen itc&amp;quot;&amp;gt;idif&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;]][[User talk:idiffer|&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:darkblack;font:bold 10pt kristen itc&amp;quot;&amp;gt;fer&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;]] 15:50, 25 April 2014 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
: Actually, I don&#039;t mind either way. But perhaps, putting your comments on the talk page of the chapter would be easier.

What? Who? When did you translate this and why haven&#039;t I noticed it from the beginning? This is an excellent series and you translated an entire volume a month...that&#039;s ungodly. I just wanted to write here to say how awesome it&#039;s been reading this series (just finished the first book--I hated the way the author had me with the &#039;owner&#039; mystery because of his cheap shot) and that I seriously congratulate you on your translations. Sure, they aren&#039;t perfect, but you clearly tell this wonderful story, and I&#039;m definitely glad I read it. I truly hope you continue translating ^^. &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
For Utsuro no Hako to Zero no Maria, why edit &amp;quot;fufu&amp;quot; to &amp;quot;hehe&amp;quot;? The former is more of a sinister/evil strange laugh, and it doesn&#039;t translate to &amp;quot;hehe&amp;quot;. For this series, that kind of laugh is fitting of the characters. I hope you didn&#039;t change all the fufu to hehe in your translations! (including Dantalian no Shoka) [[User:Imagker|Imagker]] 19:38, 24 August 2010 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Mh, actually I was planning to change most of them. Fufu just seems so non-English. But I agree that it&#039;s not really replaceable 1:1. [[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] 19:41, 24 August 2010 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In anime/manga/games/LN/etc, &amp;quot;fufu/fu fu fu&amp;quot; is normally associated with maniacal characters or evil to smugged, cold, sadistic, just plain amused characters who are devising a plan, etc. It&#039;d be betraying their archetype design if we had them say hehe or something else entirely. I&#039;ll go through each chapter to see if there are any more changes and will revert them back to fufu... If that&#039;s fine with you. If yes, then, if you can recall any part where you originally went with hehe instead of fufu during your draft, can you change those too? [[User:Imagker|Imagker]] 21:46, 24 August 2010 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Hmmm, as far as i know it´s more accurate to say that is a &amp;quot;meaningful laugh&amp;quot;, where it´s abit on the mocking side, is a bit hard to describe but it doesn´t truly have to be done by an evil character; afterall, since it´s &amp;quot;meaningul&amp;quot;, it generally points at something, or indicates something that the character finds amusing, in fact is rather hard to use it in any other form without it feeling out of place.(Well in fact i can think of one instance in Hakomari that´s a good example of it´s general use but...well i´m already quite long-winded as it is...) &lt;br /&gt;

I love the story, and I have time during my school break, so I&#039;m doing some major edits offline (I&#039;m rewriting paragraphs and such to make it read much more smoothly, but with the same content and stuff.) so after I finish the first chapter, where should I put it so you can check my changes for accuracy?

&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;ve been reading light novels here for a while...since vol 4 of Haruhi was halfway done.  Some I like, some I don&#039;t.  It&#039;s a matter of taste, like anything else.  I&#039;ve read both the Utsuru no Hako series and Gekkou and they&#039;re both at the top of a short list of favorites.  Of the two, I think I prefer vol 1 of Hako slightly just because it scratches my science fiction itch along with my psychological horror itch.  Great stuff.  My Japanese isn&#039;t good enough to translate, but I&#039;m happy to edit these (as I did with all of Gekkou) because they&#039;re so different/interesting and not at all like the generic LN offering here.

:Dantalian no Shoka is a great LN, but it lacks a main story that connects everything, which bothers me a little.

&lt;br /&gt;
Really appreciate u for introducing all these novels ! really perked up my interest ! &lt;br /&gt;
I will be glad if i can be any help in translation since i can read jap&lt;br /&gt;
: Glad to hear that I met your taste. :D Any help with translating / editing would be most appreciated if you&#039;re confident in your skills. In concrete terms, Tsukumodo (the remaining novels), Gekkou (a short story) or Dantalian (although stalled) do still have stuff left to do. Though, if you haven&#039;t read that many light novels yet, I recommend staying a reader for a little longer, since that&#039;s a lot more fun than translating. ;] [[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] 15:55, 2 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

== Thanks for translating ==&lt;br /&gt;
Thanks for taking the time to translate the novels. I would really like to thank you in particular for translating Maria, I&#039;m looking every week for updates to the 5th volume!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== How to best express my appreciation for your awesome efforts! ==&lt;br /&gt;
You&#039;re responsible for translating most of my favorites - Utsuro no Hako,&lt;br /&gt;
Gekkou, Our Journey to the End of the Ceasing World - to name just a few. I just started (maybe overenthusiastically, orz) tackling edits to Tsukumodo Antique Shop in thanks, but was wondering what your priorities are for editor efforts: for instance, if you feel Gekkou is complete already, so we shouldn&#039;t spend time there; otoh, if you want Utsuro no Hako to be uber-polished, etc etc&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Anyway, much thanks (and sorry if my edits are too intrusive)...I haven&#039;t done a lot yet, but figured I should check in early rather than be a pain in the butt...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[User:Grrarr|Grrarr]] 08:38, 12 July 2012 (EDT)&lt;br /&gt;
: First of all, thanks a bunch for the edits you made so far. :D Made my day. And don&#039;t worry about being too intrusive: if it sound better/more correct/more natural, then it&#039;s a good edit, and it will help me pick up new words, figures of speech and whatnot, since I try to check every edit. In fact, for me the most nerve-racking thing while translating is being unable to find a good-sounding and natural wording, so I&#039;m always delighted if someone makes the stuff flow better.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:As for priorities: Hopefully sometime during the next week I&#039;m going to start working on Hakomari 5, which will have top priority. Translation and editing will take place on my private wiki because I want the translation to be as good as possible. If you want to join (in fact, anyone who wants to join) just drop me a message in the forums or at umikarayattekita{AT}yahoo.co.jp and you&#039;ll get &#039;&#039;&#039;instant access&#039;&#039;&#039; (not wanting to sound like a pr0n site).&lt;br /&gt;
:* Apart from Hakomari, I&#039;d like to focus mainly on Tsukumodo, since there&#039;s still a whack-load of work to be done there (mostly translation-wise).&lt;br /&gt;
:* Gekkou: Considered completed. I&#039;m satisfied with its editing state (pretty much the only project I am)&lt;br /&gt;
:* Tabi ni Deyou: Don&#039;t plan on putting much more work into it. Was just a little one-man side-project.&lt;br /&gt;
:* Hakomari &amp;lt;5: I&#039;ve pretty much given up on getting them into shape. :D yyr has gone through them and erased a lot of errors though.&lt;br /&gt;

Thanks for the access - until Hakomari 5 goes up on the private wiki, I&#039;m mostly working on Tsukumodo on baka-tsuki (since your private wiki copy of Tsukumodo seems to be an older version). Keep up your excellent work! [[User:Grrarr|Grrarr]] 21:25, 12 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

== Thank You So Much! ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I really mean it. I sure took my time to come here and express my gratitude. Anyway, i must say it. All the works you translated had some significance for me. All of them. Utsuro no Hako to Zero no Maria made me like reading in the first place, it was something like two years ago (that&#039;s why I&#039;ve said that I took too long of a time to came here and express my gratitude). Gekkou made me laugh for days, damn, I&#039;m still laughing right now even tough it&#039;s not a story I&#039;m supposed to laugh about. Anyway, Tabi ni Deyou was beautiful. I can&#039;t really say about Dantalian since I&#039;ve still didn&#039;t read the novel, but I like the story from the anime and manga. And now I&#039;m reading Tsukumodo Antique Shop. I&#039;ve just ended the first volume and really, it was great. Well enough blabbering, I&#039;m here to give you my thanks but also to cheer you on Tsukumodo, it&#039;s a great novel and I&#039;d really like to read it to end. I hope that some of my gratitude reached you since I would have never known any of these novels if not for your hard work. While I&#039;m at it I would like to ask you permission to translate Utsuro and Tsukumodo into Brazillian Portuguese. Well, technically I&#039;m already translating Utsuro for about some time. You can check it [http://lightnovelproject.blogspot.com.br/ here] in the label &amp;quot;Projetos&amp;quot; presently the links are suspended for a new revision on the chapters but you can still see the project page if you want. Thanks for taking your time to read this, and again, thank you very much for your hard work!&lt;br /&gt;
:Wow, I&#039;m really delighted that you enjoyed them so much. :D  After all, I also love them all myself. Also, feel free to use my translations, and just ask if you have trouble understanding something. --[[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] ([[User talk:EusthEnoptEron#top|talk]]) 14:52, 31 August 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

I loved both of them!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I would like to know if you are going to continue translating Tsukumodo Antique Shop, as I noticed you are not registered to be working on its translation. I would be glad to help with editing Tsukumodo Antique Shop, if you decide to continue working on it.&lt;br /&gt;

Cheers,&lt;br /&gt;

:Glad you enjoyed your read. :D&lt;br /&gt;
:As for Tsukumodo: Yes, I&#039;m still planning on completing it, although it&#039;s hard to gather enough motivation as the series is not exactly popular (no anime, etc). Every help is greatly appreciated, since knowing that my grammatical train wrecks are being taken care of would be a great weight off my shoulders. ;) Also, don&#039;t worry about being too aggressive should you decide to do some edits; I don&#039;t know about other translators, but I&#039;m &#039;&#039;very&#039;&#039; open-minded in this respect. By the way, I&#039;ve actually already started working on the next chapter on my personal wiki -- I&#039;m probably going to release by chapter from now on. -[[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] ([[User talk:EusthEnoptEron#top|talk]]) 10:27, 6 December 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

:Heyho~, glad you liked Hakomari. As for Tasogare-iro; unfortunately, although it&#039;s on my list, I haven&#039;t gotten around to reading the series, and I generally don&#039;t translate stuff I haven&#039;t read and come to love.

This: [http://www.baka-tsuki.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=15&amp;amp;t=5477 Jinrui wa Suitai Shimashita].  It has the &#039;fading world&#039; quality of [[Tabi ni Deyou, Horobiyuku Sekai no Hate Made]] along with a more pointed version of the social commentary snark of [[Gekkou]].  It&#039;s more farcical than your usual choices, but it&#039;s definitely as intellectual as anything else you&#039;ve done, and it recently had a well-done anime.  But nobody seems to want to pick it up as a translation project either here or commercially.  Not every translator could manage it (there&#039;s some slang, some puns (some translingual puns)), but I think you could.-[[User:Senile seinen|Senile seinen]] ([[User talk:Senile seinen|talk]]) 15:55, 28 December 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
: Aah, Jintai, yes, I&#039;ve read the first novel and recently watched the anime. I like it. And funnily enough, I&#039;ve already considered helping out the guy who has started translating it over there at TLWiki. So chances aren&#039;t zero. In the meanwhile, I&#039;m looking forward to the AURA movie -- Romeo&#039;s approach to the Chuunibyou phenomenon. ;) -[[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] ([[User talk:EusthEnoptEron#top|talk]]) 16:04, 28 December 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
I hadn&#039;t bothered to look at Romeo&#039;s CV before now.  A majority of his work is visual novels.  Interestingly I&#039;ve recently played through Cross Channel, which is his most famous vnovel.  CC has some clever elements but didn&#039;t wow me.  Now that I know that the same guy wrote both, I can see the similarities in the narrator&#039;s internal commentary and the underlying theme of people who are broken in interesting ways interacting.  I&#039;ll be waiting for the AURA movie as well - his narrative voice seems better suited to books and serial formats.  The Chuunibyou anime that came out this year seems to have a very similar plot to AURA.  I&#039;m curious to see his treatment of the idea.  In any event, consider doing Jintai - the TLWiki guy did one chapter two years ago.  I have the feeling that it&#039;s your project if you want it. -[[User:Senile seinen|Senile seinen]] ([[User talk:Senile seinen|talk]]) 10:48, 29 December 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
:Yes, coordinating with the other translator should be the smallest issue, since I know him. In fact, he&#039;s one of the few citizens of our cozy little Hakomari IRC channel. Anyway, first I&#039;ll have to deal with Hakomari and perhaps Tsukumodo. [[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] ([[User talk:EusthEnoptEron#top|talk]]) 14:31, 29 December 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

== Question about Utsuro no Hako to Zero no Maria ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hi! I just registered after getting to volume 3 of this light novel series. Until the revelations in chapter 1, vol. 3, I had been working under the assumption that all the bits you underlined had a special meaning to them. My working theory was that they were some sort of red truth like in Umineko. That was completely smashed when I several lies showed up in the chapter that I don&#039;t seem possible to be tricks of some sort. I tried doing some google searches but couldn&#039;t find any references to all the underlining you have done for the series.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So I was wondering if you could please explain the meaning of underlined phrases. Thanks.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
--April 22, 2015-- TomaO2&lt;br /&gt;
: To be honest, I don&#039;t know whether or not Mikage had something special in mind when using underlines (or dots in the case of the original Japanese text). Most likely they&#039;re just supposed to emphasize certain passages, so I wouldn&#039;t read too much into them. [[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] ([[User talk:EusthEnoptEron#top|talk]]) 11:36, 22 April 2015 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:: I&#039;m going to have to apologize. I stopped reading right after Daiya revealed himself as the owner of the box after game three, which I assumed meant that the underlined text from the earlier game was a blatant lie. I&#039;ve gotten further now and it was, in fact, the truth and the actual box master of the game of idleness has been revealed. I suppose if I had spelled out exactly what I thought was the lie earlier, you could have corrected me at the time but I didn&#039;t want to write down spoilers at the time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::Therefore, I&#039;m going back to my belief that everything underlined is a truth of some sort. Either because the other person believes (even if he&#039;s wrong) or, if Kazuki thinks it to be true, then a literal truth of the story. That&#039;s my working theory of how underlined text works. Thanks for taking the time to answer my question.&lt;br /&gt;

Just take a look at how I did it (or even better, use the original translation as a template). Maybe also update the &amp;quot;Aggiornamenti&amp;quot; section.

&lt;div&gt;what software are you using? if you&#039;re using word or google docs, you need to turn off your autocorrect for those first. It works perfectly for me, cos that&#039;s what I do. you don&#039;t even need to put the curly quotes in it, just use the flat one and replace all. --[[User:Pryun|Pryun]] - [[User_talk:Pryun|Talk]] 17:36, 3 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Imma using microsoft words. How do you turn off the auto correct? --[[User:Castor212|Castor212]] 19:02, 3 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
uhh.. depends on the version... for my current version it&#039;s file&amp;gt;options&amp;gt;autocorrect&amp;gt;auto format as you type&amp;gt; straight quotes with curly quotes, but my previous version was something else. Just hunt down autocorrect on your menu and get rid of smart quotes. --[[User:Pryun|Pryun]] - [[User_talk:Pryun|Talk]] 05:38, 4 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

==Cleaning Images==&lt;br /&gt;
Photoshop. First open the image and create a Copy layer of the background. Name it &amp;quot;Layer 1&amp;quot;. Then go to to the Image menubar item &amp;gt;&amp;gt; Adjustments &amp;gt;&amp;gt; Levels... (Do not choose Auto Levels). Make the adjustments to the black and white sliders found just below the graph, until the whites are white and the blacks are black. Make further adjustments until the overall pic is at optimal viewing form. Hit OK. If you like you can also adjust the brightness/contrast or color balance. Now comes the hard part. You see the japanese text? That has to be removed properly. Use the clone brush. Many times you&#039;ll have to zoom in alot and reduce the size of the clone brush and delicately &amp;quot;clean&amp;quot; the japanese text. Use the smudge and blur tools where necessary. Use the pen tool to redraw lines (better to do line redrawing on a new layer and then merge when completed). Finally, you must make a choice. If your images has a lot of dust and scratches then you must remove them by going to Filter &amp;gt;&amp;gt; Noise and then choose either Dust an d Scratches or Despeckle. After making the change compare before and after by undo and redo. Choose the better option even if you have to undo it (there are times when it&#039;s better not to remove the dust and scratches. That&#039;s all for cleaning. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  08:18, 29 October 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Important:&#039;&#039;&#039; To insert text, &#039;&#039;&#039;first&#039;&#039;&#039; search google for Blambot&#039;s Free fonts. You&#039;ll find Blambot&#039;s site, download all his free fonts and use a font manager like NexusFont to manage them. Anime Ace 2.0 is the default for speech but you can make your choice from Blambot&#039;s collection. use the text tool and type it in. That&#039;s all. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  08:18, 29 October 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are manga cleaning tutorials on the web, search them out. It&#039;ll be tough work. Even I&#039;m still an amateur at this. Plus cleaning color images are much harder than the grayscale images.

&lt;br /&gt;
Here: [http://main.storminheaven.org/guide/main.html This might help]. You&#039;ll have to learn how to clean grayscale images before you can do color images. Don&#039;t forget about Blambot, the link doesn&#039;t give enough info on fonts, that section is outdated. Although I do admit the fonts there are in my collection as well and &#039;&#039;sometimes&#039;&#039; I use them.

== Accel World Yen Press Release ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
From what I&#039;ve heard, the first volume of Accel World will be released sometime in 2014. (Since the first volume of SAO has been officially announced to come out in April 2014, it will probably be around then as well.) As such, you don&#039;t have to worry, as I fully intend to finish vol 5 before the end of 2013. That much I can guarantee. --[[User:Eternal Dreamer|Eternal Dreamer]] ([[User talk:Eternal Dreamer|talk]]) 10:33, 18 September 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

==Story Synopsis==&lt;br /&gt;
The story is set in a parallel world to original Fate/stay night where the Grail was removed from Fuyuki City after the Third War and thus events of Fate/stay night and Fate/Zero never happened. It focuses on the conflict between the two opposing factions. Red and Black, each summoning seven Servants, and the Grail itself summoning a special Ruler-class servant as a mediator of the Holy Grail War. The Red faction members were sent by the Clock Tower Mage&#039;s Association, while the Black faction members are part of a Romanian group called Yggdmillennia.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==Story Synopsis==&lt;br /&gt;
The story is set in a parallel world to original Fate/stay night where the Grail was removed from Fuyuki City after the Third War and thus events of Fate/stay night and Fate/Zero never happened. It focuses on the conflict between the two opposing factions. Red and Black, each summoning seven Servants, and the Grail itself summoning a special Ruler-class servant as a mediator of the Holy Grail War. The Red faction members were sent by the Clock Tower Mage&#039;s Association, while the Black faction members are part of a Romanian group called Yggdmillennia.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;==PDFs==&lt;br /&gt;
hey, can you please re-upload 20-21-22 chapters of index? links are not working..&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hello, today i was going to download 3 volume of index, but i found out that all the pdf are gone, so can you reupload at least this 3 volume? I&#039;ve try to find them somewhere else but i found only older versions, and i really want to have the newest bc i print them [only for myself not for sale or anything, i just prefer classic book type than e-book or something like that]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sorry, i dont know how to do such thing, even google could&#039;nt help me, i&#039;m sure you have these pdf&#039;s, if you cant post it here, post it somewhere else, or at least do some tutorial to how to do this&lt;br /&gt;
Edit Ok, now i know how to do it, but it still doesn&#039;t look like book, i mean your pdf were awesome to read as a book, and i really hope that i could have them. Last Edit; Thanks, I know it&#039;s little outdated but still its better than newer pdf that doesn&#039;t look like a book.&lt;br /&gt;

Hello, thanks for the high quality illustrations for Index. I know it&#039;s late ( I already do 3 volumes ), but I wanted to ask you for the authorisation for clean the illustrations you made and frenchify them.

==Editing==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Speaking of the British/American English issue, the reason why I wanted to set it as British English for default would be mainly because many of the characters are from England or has links with Necessarius (Like Index, Stiyl, Kaori, Motoharu, Aleister). It is just a matter of applying them when necessary, since it will be weird to see someone like say, the President in NT3 or Etzali, use British English in this setting. It&#039;s more of an aesthetic feel that I want, but ultimately one I can&#039;t apply to the entire setting unfortunately.--[[User:Teh Ping|Teh Ping]] ([[User talk:Teh Ping|talk]]) 09:33, 14 November 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I am now imagining Index with a heavy British accent. But yeah, I won&#039;t be able to help out much with changing to British, since I barely know anything about the differences, but I won&#039;t change anything over to American. [[User:Ultranova17|Ultranova17]] ([[User talk:Ultranova17#top|talk]]) 09:46, 14 November 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There was no discussion page on this, but this is, in general, what most editors are trying to do. We&#039;re trying to bring the novels (at least the Index novels anyways) as close to a genuine Anglo-Saxon book format.&lt;br /&gt;
Well, I&#039;ll just list general things so you get the idea: incorrect usage of parentheses, brackets, ellipses, etc. In other words a lot of things just rampantly egregious in translations. --[[User:Skies|Skies]] ([[User talk:Skies|talk]]) 00:41, 18 November 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hello, I am planning to do an edit through all chapters of Index for consistency in word choice, formatting, and terminology within the next few weeks.  My plans are detailed on [[User_talk:Cthaeh|my talk page]].  I know you&#039;ve have worked (if not still working) on consistency, so I wanted to give you a chance to comment on the terms I plan to change if you&#039;d like, or to suggest adding new terms that I should do at the same time.  Also, if you&#039;re in the middle of editing a chapter, then it might be best if you uploaded your partial edit before I download the chapters and started editing so that less merging needs to be done later (if you are in the middle of editing, I can message you with an exact start date for my edits once I know it).  Also, thanks for cleaning up the present tense in volumes 4 and 5 that I missed. --[[User:Cthaeh|Cthaeh]] ([[User talk:Cthaeh|talk]]) 18:47, 29 August 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thanks for catching some of my mistakes.  I also noticed you&#039;re going after the magic/magical books --&amp;gt; grimoires.  Just fyi that there are also a few &amp;quot;magic/magical text&amp;quot;s that probably should also be changed to grimoire (I noticed those four forms and was pretty sure should be changed, but decided not to at the time because I didn&#039;t have it on my original list).  And since you also did an Original/original, I&#039;ll just mention that&#039;s one that I decided not to do halfway through my edits (even though it was on my list), so that&#039;s still scattered throughout the series.  For the mistakes you caught, I checked to make sure I didn&#039;t have any other mistakes of the same form (of course probability-wise, their are probably still a few other kinds of mistakes).  Also, let me know if you make it through reviewing all of my edits.  I was intending to go through them all carefully in a few weeks once I have a fresh set of eyes, but if you&#039;ve checked them all that probably isn&#039;t necessary for me to do.

&lt;div&gt;Ok. Now this is fascinating. Consider me well teased, Herr EusthEnoptEron.&lt;br /&gt;

__________________________________&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I just finished whats been translated of Kamisu Reina and I really enjoyed it. It reminded me a lot of Usamaru Furuya&#039;s Suicide Club: http://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=3439&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I loved Hakomari and reading this work of Mikage really reinforced why I enjoy his work. He&#039;s incredibly good at understanding and conveying a character&#039;s internal conflict, and he does it by personifying abstract concepts into these mysterious omnipotent beings: Kamisu Reina and O respectively. I get a great tingling sensation when he finally reveals his hand, like at the end of volume 5 of Hakomari. Kamisu Reina&#039;s idea of having a phenomenon exist that gives suicidical teenagers that last push they need to finally do it is really interesting. In each of the three stories, Kamisu Reina pushes each of them over the threshold, not by making them despair, but by showing them hope in suicide. I guess she also embodies the suicider&#039;s hope for an orderly world, as in chapter 2 and 3 where both characters see her as an answer to why they had to suffer. You could go so many different ways with Mikage&#039;s concepts and I really enjoyed Kamisu Reina because of it. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I definitely look forward to the last chapter of this volume and omake comedy bit of Hakomari that you mentioned on /a/. Thanks for your excellent translations and keep up the good work. [[User:Thresholden|Thresholden]] ([[User talk:Thresholden|talk]]) 02:57, 13 February 2014 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

==Thanks==&lt;br /&gt;
Thanks, man. I&#039;m really enjoying your translations of &amp;quot;Yahari Ore...&amp;quot;. Keep it up, cause it looks like it&#039;ll be a first volume with love theme in it. I hope that, somehow, it&#039;ll later lead to Hatiman&#039;s confession to Yukinosita) --[[User:Level5|Level5]] ([[User talk:Level5|talk]]) 05:54, 27 June 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

Thanks for all the hard work and speed. Too shame I need to read &#039;Mahouka&#039; now and can&#039;t feed myself with &#039;Oregairu&#039;. [[User:Kiyoso|Kiyoso]] ([[User talk:Kiyoso|talk]]) 14:14, 3 April 2014 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

Congratulations on completely OreGairu Volume 8! You were really fast with these last few chapters. xD I&#039;m sure everyone appreciates it, specially since I hear that OreGairu is going to get a Season 2 anime. --[[User:Cloudii|Cloudii]] ([[User talk:Cloudii|talk]]) 07:46, 16 April 2014 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

== Full text ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You don&#039;t need to copy-paste the full text, you know. Click &amp;quot;edit&amp;quot; on other full-text links for other series and you&#039;ll see how it&#039;s done. :P [[User:Kira0802|Mystes]] ([[User_talk:Kira0802|Talk]]) 20:31, 1 April 2014 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just a comment, full text pages are almost always created after all the chapters in the volume have been completed.  So readers might think that volume 8 is done because its full text page is there.  I would personally remove (or put in hide tags) the link to the volume 8 full text page until all the chapters are complete. And as an aside, thanks for translating. --[[User:Cthaeh|Cthaeh]] ([[User talk:Cthaeh|talk]]) 22:19, 1 April 2014 (CDT)&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

Inside it are numerous cities, small towns and villages, forests, grasslands, and lakes. One stairway connects each floor to the previous and succeeding floor, and all of them are in dangerous labyrinth zones where monsters wander about. Players in this world rely on one weapon as they run past them, find the way to the upper floors, and take down strong guardian monsters, single-mindedly aiming for the top of the castle. Aside from battling with monsters, there are many scopes of play from manufacturing like smithing, leathercraft and sewing, to hunting and cuisine, to music. This is not merely adventuring in a vast field, [Life] is literally possible here.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;quot;Aincrad&amp;quot; is the world set as the stage for &amp;quot;Sword Art Online&amp;quot;, declared as the world&#039;s first in the VRMMO game genre.&lt;br /&gt;

Quick comment on your translation for ALO. While I haven&#039;t seen any official English translation for its name, the Japanese Wikipedia calls it Alfheim Online. Personally, I agree with it since it follows the Mythology theme, with Álfar meaning elves in Norse Mythology, making Alfheim mean Elves&#039; (Alf) Home (Heim). The reason I think it follows the Mythology theme is that I believe Yggdrasil makes an appearance (I couldn&#039;t find where I read this, and I have bad memory at best, so possibly wrong), Kirito&#039;s class becomes a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spriggan Spriggan], Lyfa (or whatever it ends up being) is a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sylph Sylph], and Yui is a Navigation Pixie&amp;lt;!--Quite the specific race if you ask me--&amp;gt;. Hope this helps. ~EnigmaticRepose&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:In the Japanese raws of volume 3 (page 61), the name is written in English: &amp;quot;ALfheim Online&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;

The info page for the PGM Hécate II may need to be re-done.  I see some potentially wacky wording, and some improper terminology.  For example the original text clearly says &amp;quot;anti-materiel rifle&amp;quot;, and &amp;quot;anti-materiel&amp;quot; is an actual term.  I&#039;ll submit a draft within a few days.--[[User:HashiriyaR32|HashiriyaR32]] ([[User talk:HashiriyaR32|talk]]) 21:27, 17 October 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

Image:Sword Art Online Vol 07 -008.jpg|OSS &amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;Its formal name is 《Original Sword Skills》. An improved version of the 《Sword Skills》 system of the now defunct Sword Art Online, implemented in 《Alfheim Online》. Each weapon has its own 《Skill Tree》. Brought forth drastic change to 《ALO》 which was previously dominated by long-range 《Magic》.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;Different from the 《Sword Skills》 in 《SAO》, OSS are not skills predefined by the system but rather skills that can be invented and registered by the player. However, in order to register such skills, players are required to perform them &amp;quot;without system support at a speed normally impossible without system assist&amp;quot;. This somewhat contradictory strict requirement is the main reason why there&#039;s only few players who posses OSS.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;The OSS system supports a function known as 《Sword Skill Inheritance》. Players who successfully register an OSS are able to pass down a single-use 《Skill Manual》 to other players. Because the development of an OSS is extremely difficult, 《Skill Manuals》 for OSS, especially those that contain over-5-hits special moves, are currently the most expensive items in ALO.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

:Regarding the &amp;quot;color tweak&amp;quot;, I don&#039;t think it was necessary, the colors look out of place.

::First of all I don&#039;t get why you&#039;re so impatient about this.  I doubt many people really care if the images get photoshopped immediately, especially the translators who you keep hounding.  The way you&#039;re asking has a very demanding and spoiled tone.     Second, from what I&#039;ve read on here I thought you understood Japanese at least somewhat as you said you watched stuff raw, so I&#039;m surprised you wouldn&#039;t get a set phrase like まだまだ.

:::Dude, I said I understand &#039;&#039;&#039;verbal&#039;&#039;&#039; japanese, not written. For written I need to run the text through a romanjifier like google translate&#039;s phonetic reader. But I can&#039;t do that with pictures now, can I? Anyways thanks for the j-text. I just put it through and found that it was &amp;quot;mada mada&amp;quot;. But it can actually be translated both ways, as in &amp;quot;I&#039;ve still got a long way to go&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;I&#039;m just getting started/This isn&#039;t all I have/Not yet/etc&amp;quot; But the word that translates to &amp;quot;No&amp;quot; before the term points to &amp;quot;I&#039;ve still got a long way to go&amp;quot;. I know that but it seems the translator didn&#039;t and since I couldn&#039;t extract the j-text and run it through a romanjification program, thus I missed the error. But now I got it, so... I&#039;ll fix it now. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  01:14, 6 August 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

::I meant that I would have expected someone familiar with Japanese to recognize the phrase from one of its common translations and, based off the context, realize there might be a more appropriate choice in a similar way to how Pryun was thinking.  This would be independent of knowing what the original text was.  Being able to recognize this sort of thing can really improve your effectiveness as an editor as you would be better able to let the translators know of a possible mistake.

:::How could I when I need to romanjify in order to understand? I guess you overestimated my abilities. The phrase fit the circumstances, even if it was wrong. And whenever I sense a mistake I immediately ask for the j-text, run it through google translate, check both the romanji and the translation (Just checking the translation isn&#039;t good enough but the romanji helps a lot), examine the sentence in both languages and then give suggestions. I&#039;ve helped translators a lot via this method. I do intend to learn written Japanese as well. But pretty soon I&#039;ll probably be starting my Masters. So it&#039;ll have to be delayed. Anyways, I can&#039;t use an OCR (like Capture2Text) on color pictures so I &#039;&#039;&#039;must&#039;&#039;&#039; rely on translators for that.

::::Then I recommend you to spend a bit of time to learn Hiragana &amp;amp; Katakana, since you like anime &amp;amp; manga, knowing how to read both kana helps greatly. I learnt how to read them by myself when I was in elementary school to play some jRPG, so it should be a cake for you, I think about a week is all average adults need in order to remember all kana. -- [[User:BeginnerXP|BeginnerXP]] - [[User_talk:BeginnerXP|Talk]] 09:17, 7 August 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:If you read manga, especially those shounen manga, all kanji will have hirakana characters (furigana) telling readers how it&#039;s read, it helps a lot to use that reading to look up the kanji, rather than tracking the kanji via radicals or stroke counts. Learning kanji properly would require a large amount of time (years), so it&#039;s entirely down to each person&#039;s determination. But kana is simple enough like A-B-C, so it should be a good foundation to have for anyone who enjoys Japanese media. -- [[User:BeginnerXP|BeginnerXP]] - [[User_talk:BeginnerXP|Talk]] 10:44, 7 August 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

::Unfortunately. I don&#039;t live in a country where I can get my hands on the raw shounen or any other kind of manga. In fact I have yet to see manga of any kind in any book store, raw or translated. I watch anime and read manga online.

:::Well, the only one left the translate, is the one with Kirito, Eugeo, Ronie (Tea haired) and Teiza (Red Haired). Judging by everything, it should be the scene in Interlude II, where Kirito hands the bag of pies to Ronie, and tells her to share it with her class mates. If you can&#039;t translate the whole thing, try translating bits and pieces to get an idea of where in the text this is. I might do it though, if you don&#039;t want to xD But either way, it&#039;s ineffective, as it could just be wrong all together.. haha...&lt;br /&gt;

I don&#039;t think it&#039;s nice to use someone else&#039;s translations, but change the names. Unless you had permission? Still, It would be nice to just have linked to the pdf for those that wanted it, since it was already done and all, instead of taking it up upon yourself to, uh, horriblify the text. I liked BeginnerXP&#039;s names and terminology far better than the ones you used... As to who translated those pictures... Uhh, you DLed BeginnerXP&#039;s pdfs, who do you think translated them?

:Umm. Listen I know you&#039;re trying to be helpful and all but [[Sword Art Online:Volume 10 Interlude II|Teh Ping&#039;s chosen translation and naming]] takes priority, since that&#039;s what&#039;s being read (if BeginnerXP had done it then his would take prority).

::Don&#039;t know if my eyes are playing tricks on me or not, but &#039;Teiza&#039; seems more like Tize to me. Ah, also, Interlude II was done by Melannis, not Teh Ping. [[User:Florza|Florza]] ([[User talk:Florza|talk]]) 05:37, 11 October 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::Yes, It&#039;s pronounced Tize.

&lt;br /&gt;
Quoting: &#039;&#039;If you mean the text in volume 7, the image quality is too poor for me to want to spend my time on. But for volume 8, I already did all of them, just I didn&#039;t add them to wiki, you can get the text from my SAO8 PDF I post in forums and edit the images accordingly, you also might need to correct some mistakes as I didn&#039;t want to bother Pryun to look at them with his busy schedule. -- BeginnerXP - Talk 05:22, 7 June 2012 (CDT)&#039;&#039; ([[User_talk:Zero2001/Archive_1#SAO_Pics|Thank God I archive my talk page discussions]]). So I do kinda have an okay to at least cross-check and edit. Besides, considering the amount of work done during scanlation, other than text translation (ie: cleaning, leveling, cloning, etc) I don&#039;t think it&#039;s unfair especially since I&#039;m not taking the credit for the translation, only the editing and photoshopping. Anyways, Teh Ping said this in the history comments: &#039;&#039;Note, this is done by a person called Melannis. I&#039;m really grateful for the help here. (received this through twitter lol)&#039;&#039;, therefore it&#039;s approved by him and that&#039;s good enough for me.

::::@Zero2001: At first, I wanted to just ignore this double offensive actions from you (one is taking my translation and change the terms without permission, second is asking in Ping&#039;s talk page if there is any error in my translation, as if you picked up something from the street and asked if it&#039;s genuine).

Became «Elite Swordsman Trainee» at «North Centoria Master Swords Academy» with Kirito.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

It is enclosed within a perfect circular rampart with a diameter of ten kilol, and possesses a population of over twenty thousand. The solid walls in the shape of an X divide the circular city into four equal parts, and these separating walls are called the «Eternal Wall». «North Centoria», «East Centoria», «South Centoria», and «West Centoria» are what the divided municipalities are called; they are the capitals of the four empires which divide and rule over the vast Human World.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;In the middle of the «Capital» is the pure white grand tower that lies at the heart of the Human World, the Axiom Church’s «Central Cathedral». The tower is so tall its zenith is hazy and can&#039;t be seen, and the square grounds of the church are enclosed by a high wall, so it is impossible to see what lies inside. The «Eternal Wall» that divides the city of Centoria starts from the Cathedral, and stretches outward in four directions. Within the highest ruling system «Axion Church» there are officers known as «Integrity Knights», and these knights that maintain the order of the world are the Sacred Task that all the swordsmen of the world aspire to.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;If one passes the entrance exam of the swordsmen training institution «North Centoria Master Sword Academy» in order to aim for the rank of «Integrity Knight», they become a «Beginner Trainee Swordsman» in public. The Trainees train themselves diligently over the period of one year, and at the end of every academy year, they aim for becoming swordsmen of even higher rank during the promotion exam. The final objective of the academy students is to participate in the «Northern Empire Swordsmanship Tournament». Kirito and Eugeo are aiming to win the competition even higher than that, the «Four Empires Unity Tournament» that is the highest swordsmanship tournament in the Human World, where the winners are appointed as honorable «Integrity Knights».&lt;br /&gt;

Notes:&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;lt;s&amp;gt;Not 100% sure on Kirito&#039;s comment, that&#039;s the best I could guess&lt;br /&gt;
*Reason for changing Ronie&#039;s first comment&#039;s comma to exclamation point was since &amp;quot;Wow, really?&amp;quot; seems to be used with too much sarcasm too often these days&lt;br /&gt;
*I&#039;m pretty sure there&#039;s a more eloquent way for Teiza to hint the gesture, but it&#039;s evading me at the moment&lt;br /&gt;
*Since 打ち can mean both &amp;quot;hit&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;reach&amp;quot;, a possible but slightly less likely different interpretation is: &amp;quot;Kirito, if it turns out that my fist can reach you, you don&#039;t have to run away, okay?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
**I peeked at what PROzess translated so far and...well, one word: context. Rather facepalm-worthy. As such, changed Eugeo&#039;s quote. But, Teiza&#039;s quote is somewhat confusing. Unless it&#039;s a case of &#039;&#039;extremely&#039;&#039; liberal context usage, I don&#039;t think she even uses that particular quote in-story. Can someone correct me?&amp;lt;/s&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
***Ronye says that bit, which explains why I didn&#039;t find &#039;&#039;Tiese&#039;&#039; it. And yup, another botched trans.&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;lt;s&amp;gt;Intros of the first pic are the same as the previous volume, except for the second half of Eugeo&#039;s&amp;lt;/s&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
*Also, not quite sure if it&#039;s &amp;quot;Elite Swordsman Trainee&amp;quot; or just &amp;quot;Elite Swordsman&amp;quot; - but then again, previous volumes had them interchanged, so maybe it doesn&#039;t matter?&lt;br /&gt;
*If anyone wants to dispute my interpretations, here&#039;s a quick dump of all kanji used in the first three pics: 君跳鹿亭優劣味私作口合打解今逃修剣学院上級士助僕君人界秩序守市域統括公理教会&lt;br /&gt;

I know the character descriptions for Kirito, Ronie and Teiza are already technically done in Vol 10, but I thought I&#039;d put up my own translation of them in case anyone wants to use it. (Feel free to comment or suggest changes.) Also, I intend to translate the story description on the fourth page, if nobody minds. --[[User:Eternal Dreamer|Eternal Dreamer]] ([[User talk:Eternal Dreamer|talk]]) 14:39, 22 December 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;quot; It tastes better than those prancing deers at the pavilion, &amp;quot; shouldn&#039;t it be &amp;quot;it tastes better than those at the Prancing Deer&#039;s Pavilion,&amp;quot;?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Yes, it should be. I didn&#039;t realize it was a name initially, which was why I was so confused. In volume 10 it was translated as &amp;quot;Jumping Deer Inn&amp;quot;, so I&#039;ll go with that for now. -[[User:AKAAkira|Akira]] ([[User talk:AKAAkira|talk]]) 17:14, 24 December 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

Already, the story description is done on the fourth page. As for the location text on the map itself, it&#039;s the exact same as the one from Vol 10, so just copy it from there. --[[User:Eternal Dreamer|Eternal Dreamer]] ([[User talk:Eternal Dreamer|talk]]) 10:03, 24 December 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
:I don&#039;t know a thing about Japanese, but looking at the Raw images for the last image in both this vol and from vol 10, there&#039;s only one difference in regards to the location texts.. There&#039;s a spelling differentiation in the line where &amp;quot;Indomitable Wall&amp;quot; is.. It&#039;s the second character only though, so I&#039;m not really sure what that translates to...

:My stubbornness made me look up the character XD... For some reason, Reki renamed the wall from 不屈の壁 (Indomitable Wall) to 不朽の壁 (Timeless Wall (according to Google Translate))...

&amp;lt;gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

In order to escape, he is searching for a «System Console».&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Eugeo: —Got it.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;The first inhabitant Kirito met in this world. Became «Elite Swordsman Trainee» at «North Centoria Master Swords Academy» with Kirito.&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Deusolbert Synthesis Seven: To bathe in the fires of this «Flame Bow» should have meant to become purified for two years. I see, it appears you truly possess the skills Knight Eldrie Thirty-one argued you had, despite being criminals.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;An Integrity Knight who uses the «Flame Bow».&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
Image:Sword Art Online Vol 12 - 004-005.jpg|Fanatio Synthesis Two: This is farewell, you young, foolish criminal. The light hidden inside this Heaven-Piercing Sword, I free from its shackles right now! —Release Recollection!&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;The Integrity Knights&#039; Deputy Head Knight who mastered the «Heaven-Piercing Sword».&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Kirito: Uooooh!&lt;br /&gt;
Image:Sword Art Online Vol 12 - 006-007.jpg|Kirito: I&#039;m Swordsman Trainee Kirito, and I want a fair swords match with Miss Changed Knight Alice!&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Alice Synthesis Thirty: —It&#039;s all right, your wicked hearts are such low things that I suppose you may try with that sword of yours.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;An Integrity Knight who wields the «Osmanthus Sword».&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
Image:Sword Art Online Vol 12 - 008.jpg|&#039;&#039;&#039;Central Cathedral&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Located at the middle of Underworld&#039;s «Human World» is its greatest city, «Capital Centoria». At the core of «Capital», the heart of the Human World itself, there exists the pure white superstructure, «Central Cathedral». The tower&#039;s zenith is at a height that peters out into obscurity, and the church&#039;s square grounds are surrounded by high walls; peeking inside is utterly impossible. The supreme body «Axiom Church», governing the Human World from «Central Cathedral», maintain peacekeepers named «Integrity Knights», and these knights that protect the order of the world are what every Trainee Swordsmen in the world yearn to become.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;The Cathedral is built with a hundred floors in all, and the top floor contains a room for the High Priestess.　The middle floors host monks, priests, and so on, and those who conduct the business necessary for the Axiom Church to rule the Human World also live there. On the third floor is an armory, but the fiftieth floor has a utility called «The Great Hall of the Spirit World&#039;s Light»&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Notes:&lt;br /&gt;
*Kirito &amp;amp; Eugeo&#039;s descs borrowed and modified from Eternal Dreamer&#039;s descs from last volume.&lt;br /&gt;
*Not entirely sure Deusolbert&#039;s referring to himself or his bow.&lt;br /&gt;
*熾 turned up &amp;quot;Seraphim&amp;quot; in Google Translate. No idea what&#039;s up with that.&lt;br /&gt;
**熾焰 in Chink can mean something along the lines of &amp;quot;Blazing&amp;quot;. Also, Sky Piercing Sword sounds better than Heaven Piercing Sword to me.&lt;br /&gt;
***Eeh, &amp;quot;Heaven&amp;quot; sounds more flashy to me, when it&#039;s &amp;quot;Heaven Piercing&amp;quot; vs &amp;quot;Sky Piercing&amp;quot;...unless it&#039;s maybe something like &amp;quot;Skysplitter&amp;quot;. -[[User:AKAAkira|Akira]] ([[User talk:AKAAkira|talk]]) 19:45, 3 May 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
*実 has way too many different positive trait translations. &amp;quot;Sincerity&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;truth&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;fidelity&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;faith&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;confidence&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;devotion&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;trust&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;reliance&amp;quot;... I think &amp;quot;purity&amp;quot; works best here, though.&lt;br /&gt;
**From context, it seems like it&#039;s been two years since he last used the bow&#039;s true ability. The bow becomes engulfed in flames when it&#039;s Enhance Armament is activated.&lt;br /&gt;
*I &#039;&#039;think&#039;&#039; いか in this case is supposed to be the 以下 kind. I think.&lt;br /&gt;
*剣筋 stumped me. Pretty sure it&#039;s supposed to be a compound word, but no idea what it entails. I just left it at &amp;quot;sword&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;quot;Superstructure&amp;quot; there isn&#039;t intrinsically correct, but it definitely sounds good - better than &amp;quot;great tower&amp;quot; (which I&#039;m pretty sure is the original meaning) and more accurate than &amp;quot;skyscraper&amp;quot; (especially with the modern image that word draws upon).&lt;br /&gt;
*I&#039;m pretty sure 霞んで見えない basically says &amp;quot;so hazy it can&#039;t be seen&amp;quot;, but that was kinda hard to conform into a &amp;quot;the tower&#039;s zenith is at a height&amp;quot; sentence structure, and I thought &amp;quot;obscurity&amp;quot; covers both the &amp;quot;indistinct&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;lack of ability to see&amp;quot; bases well enough anyway.&lt;br /&gt;
*I think this のぞき　is the 覗き kind?&lt;br /&gt;
*Strictly speaking, 憧れの天職 translates more as &amp;quot;yearn to take as their calling&amp;quot;, but...&amp;quot;yearn to become&amp;quot; is virtually the same meaning.&lt;br /&gt;
*Not entirely sure about 先活. 先 is along the lines of &amp;quot;former&amp;quot; and 活 is basically &amp;quot;lives&amp;quot;...but apparently 活　is a synonym for 生, and 先生 is &#039;&#039;sensei&#039;&#039;. For now, went with the former, since that makes more sense in context.&lt;br /&gt;

Far from perfect. We&#039;re both ESL (English as Second Language) people after all. The good news is that I can do Chinese-English proofreading/editing, the bad news is that tenses are a weakness for me. I&#039;m trying to keep an eye out on other people&#039;s edits and track what kind of things I miss, but if you notice a particular pattern that I fault in please don&#039;t hesitate to fix and/or drop me a note. Also, having more editors is usually a good thing. -- Aorii&lt;br /&gt;

:I should have asked before putting up my rather literal translation up, but is that okay? It has already be reverted though. &lt;br /&gt;
As when I went through the japanese text, some stuff was missing. &lt;br /&gt;
By the way, the tense used is past tense, right? Tenses should be same throughout the novel. -KuroiHikari&lt;br /&gt;

Hello, i was just wondering if you guys would accept another editor here. I have read almost all 9 volumes, and there are always many, MANY grammatical errors and weird literal translations in the text. The translation itself is solid, but it is just really awkward to read. I do really appreciate the work you guys put into this, and I&#039;m not trying to demean or anything, but i think i could contribute greatly to the editing of this novel. I am very proficient in english, and I could probably edit a chapter in 2-3 days, or faster depending on the length of the chapter. If you&#039;ll accept me, you could send me an unedited text from something to test my skills if required. I would be happy to lend a hand to such a great project.

So, I started reading the novels after having watched the anime. I really like it and I appreciate the work, but I think there&#039;s a lot that I could offer as an editor. Besides odd sentence structure, I&#039;ve seen a few misspellings. I know it says on the main page to contact a supervisor if you want to join the project, but I&#039;m not sure how to go about doing that. If someone could help me out, I would appreciate it. --[[User:nVitius|nVitius]] 3:00, 5 January 2013 PST&lt;br /&gt;

::I like this a lot too. Sounded and is very interesting Very good novel. Please continue...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::Thank you all ^^ I&#039;ve done chap four now! But it&#039;s more of a run through of how the situation was like in Aincrad. The story starts properly from chapter five. I&#039;ll try to translate that as quick as possible too!&lt;br /&gt;
::::I love you&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::::Thanks for the update&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is good! I like the development in chapter 5. Will wait until next update! I look forward to the next chapter, from what I see in the illustration there will be some romance...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Dammit now I want chapter 6... Please give it to us soon!!! PLEASE!!!! And thank you once again for translating this!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::This overwhelming pressure! XD I&#039;m workin&#039; on it! I&#039;ll try and get it up soon but the soonest SHOULD be Thursday but we&#039;ll see!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::Thank you very much for your effort! ^^ Awaiting next update eagerly... You update surprisingly fast^^. Please do not take this as a pressure but as encouragement^^&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is turning into a pretty good response column, and for a nifty reason; SAO is pretty kick ass. All our thanks go out to you, Sharramon, keep up the good work! ps BTW you have the fastest chapter updates I&#039;ve seen in awhile! and as the previous comment mentioned, that isn&#039;t some weird pressure build up, its a compliment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:I agree this is really good, thanks for the translations&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:BTW you have the fastest chapter updates I&#039;ve seen in awhile!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::That&#039;s most probably because this light novel has the shortest chapters that you&#039;ve seen in a while! :D And chap 6 done! Hell yeah!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::Thanks for chapter 6. This is a really good light novel. Can&#039;t wait for the next chapters. I would like to know though when you get volume 2 whether Kirito stays with Asuna after volume 1 or not. Because looking at the covers for volumes 2 and 3 it seems he teams up with other girls.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::::He does stay with her. Book two&#039;s about the past and the third book is about saving her from a game or something by what I gather...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::::Thanks for the info. I was agonizing over the thought that she might have died and he moved on to party with another player.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::::::I shouldn&#039;t say so much! I&#039;m spoiling people!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Seeing the update section.... I&#039;ve realized that I&#039;ve done more than a chap every two days WITHOUT the prologue O.O.....&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:That&#039;s why you&#039;re Sharramon-sama :) thanks for the great releases xD&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::damn! this is like reading Naruto. No, not the storyline, but on the updates... (yours is of course, much faster than the weekly updates) but nonetheless, the suspense, the waiting... it feels the same. Anyway, thank you for the fast updates! SPOILERS!!!!! nuooohh!!!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::oh shit now I&#039;m going to this page regularly just to see if there is any updates..&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
don&#039;t understand third volume images ç.ç aren&#039;t they supposed to have their true form? so why there are non.humans? waiting fro spoileeeers XD&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:You will understand once the translation gets that far. It&#039;s not fun being spoiled. Because you just keep wanting to know more.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You are awesome and so is this book! I know this is a minor point, but semicolons are meant to separate two closely related things that could be sentences by themselves, like the first line of the synopsis. For parts like &amp;quot;...floating castle, &#039;Aincrad&#039;; he distinguished...&amp;quot;, it should really be commas on both sides of Aincrad.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Wooo, I left this for a while and its already this much already XD YAY! Again and again, thank you so much, Sharramon-sama XD&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::Thanks for chapter 14! Too bad there isn&#039;t a picture of Kirito in his KoB uniform =(&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::at first, I thought that SAO is just a .hack&amp;gt;&amp;lt;druaga&amp;gt;&amp;lt;yureka look-a-like... I was wrong. seriously... I&#039;m jealous of Kirito ;_; Sharramon-kakka, you have my deepest gratitude (for your speed-translating). keep up the good work! XD -randompasserby&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::::chapter 18 is already out!! CHEERS! XD&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== keep up the good work! ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
you know, you have the breaking record for the fastest update in baka-tsuki...&lt;br /&gt;
And we love you!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:^^ What this person said. We LOVE you Sharramon-sama :D.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::Sama O.O....&lt;br /&gt;

:::Uh...We LOVE you Sharramon-dono*? :D&lt;br /&gt;

::::We aren&#039;t samurai either.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::::Let&#039;s go with san!... or kun? Hell I&#039;ll take tan!XD&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::::::Nah, I prefer Sharramon-kakka myself. So let&#039;s use that!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You guys are bloating his persona, he&#039;ll be crowning himself emperor of britannia soon at this pace :p&lt;br /&gt;
:He IS the rightful ruler after all, so that would make sense.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::Nah, You guys... Just say it like this &amp;quot;Sharramon-nyoro!!!!&amp;quot; RIGHT?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::How about Shar-tan? He is Paya-tan&#039;s master!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All hail Britannia! (really couldn&#039;t resist saying that). I wonder what I&#039;d like more... geass or a deathnote?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Easy. You like SAO the most!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::Hey, wait... I&#039;m a supervisor???&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::Started reading the first volume a couple days ago, finished it in one setting. I can&#039;t tell you guys how supremely awesome you are for bringing this book into english. Great Job and many thanks!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Volume Names==&lt;br /&gt;
Both the first and second volumes are called &amp;quot;Aincrad&amp;quot;? Weird...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:That&#039;s how they are named. Take a look at the third colour page for volume 01 and 02. &lt;br /&gt;
{| style=&amp;quot;background:black; color:black&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|They are named after the setting they take place in or so it seems. &lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
::I know that, I was just commenting on how it was odd.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::It all makes sense after reading the descriptions of thos images from volume 3 above.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== So because I couldn&#039;t wait... ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I thought hey why not use ATLAS to translate the raw to at least get a hint of what&#039;s going to happen.&lt;br /&gt;
This did not go well, I mean although the program boasts its amazing accuracy in translating, when I translated the whole novel it didn&#039;t even make sense at all. In fact, a Google online translation did better than the $1,400 program.&lt;br /&gt;
So in conclusion, I decided to patiently wait . . . okay never mind! Please!!!! I can&#039;t wait! where&#039;s the next chapter...&lt;br /&gt;
Thank you for translations, I really appreciate it. I LOVE Sword Art Online!-Jun&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I actually did the same thing, but I could understand like one sentence out of 15, and it also helps if you know what ATLAS translates the names as. I also found a timeline of SAO&#039;s events, and used Rikaichan to skim through it (I probably look for spoilers a little too much on series I really like, and I wasn&#039;t disappointed). Anyway though, I&#039;ve been meaning to ask this: sharramon, are you using official Korean translations or fan translations?&lt;br /&gt;
-Enigma&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Official. I&#039;m translating with the book in my hands.... I&#039;ll have to buy another one. This one&#039;s gotten really dirty XP&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I did as well. Oddly, I can figure out quite much of chapter 5 with it. It hurt my eyes and mind though. It feels like deciphering a code @-@. I decide to quit because the deciphering work reduce the enjoyment in reading it and when I read sharramon-sama&#039;s translation to find out he bits I&#039;m missing, it just won&#039;t as fun since I got to know part of the stroy already.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
@Enigma wait there is Korean translations of Sword Art Online? If there is, where could I get my hands on it? -Jun&lt;br /&gt;
Edit: Oh wait, never mind. I ordered the Korean version through AladdinUS. Can&#039;t wait to read it ^_^ -Jun&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Historic moment ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
SAO is most probably the first book in a while that got first place in daily views within a single month of it being put up in this forum! Thank you all!!! (is burning with a NEED to translate faster XD)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Discussion Forum? ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sup. Kenena here~&lt;br /&gt;
Anyway, is there a forum for SAO (I guess its also ALO too, but whatever)? I dont wanna making a new comment here every time I want to ask something. Link or something would be great.&lt;br /&gt;

Just wondering but could it be that Kirito and Asuna get out of SAO in the 1st volume but Asuna gets kidnapped and put into[Alvheim Online]? And then Kirito goes into the game to save her? Cause this pic looks like Kirito looking at Asuna with the nerve gear:http://www.baka-tsuki.org/project/images/4/43/Sword_Art_Online_Vol_03_-_043.jpg&lt;br /&gt;

I think these two should answer your question.&lt;br /&gt;

===Chapter 3/4===&lt;br /&gt;
If the book version has only three chapters, then our translation should have also only three chapters, since the web version is gone and the book version is working as the translation reference... --[[User:Darklor|Darklor]] 14:38, 11 April 2011 (UCT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ive been studying japanese for quite a while now, and can happily sayim slowly progressing,and as such decided to buy the published version that&#039;s still in japanese, two questions now: one, is it in kanji/furigana? and two if not what level of reading should I know to be able to read it effectively&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== What are we going to do with 16.5 in the full text version? ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Eventually Volume 1 will be finished, and we will do what we always do with a finished volume: make a full text!! But we have this chapter 16.5 complicating the situation. Does it go in? Stay out? Make two versions (what I think is would be best)? Something else? Let&#039;s decide what&#039;s going to happen before the volumes done.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I say make a full text with reference to 16.5 but not actual text...or throw in a link to 16.5 with a dire &amp;quot;read at own disgretion&amp;quot; message.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
-Ence&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think we should make 2 versions of it, SFW and NSFW... XD - RandomPasserBy&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Don&#039;t add it to the full text. I wouldn&#039;t even add it to the volume 1 overview nor to the &amp;quot;forward to..&amp;quot; box, to be honest. 16.5 may be canon, but it is not part of the book. As far as I know, he had this chapter only posted on his back-site without any reference on the front page. [[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] 08:16, 26 February 2010 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
oh yeah, now that you mention it... the book can&#039;t possibly have this chapter...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Considering all the killing, explicit violence that the book has, its already at least 16+ or young adults.. can&#039;t rate something M just because of some cybersex.. -Irec&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wouldn&#039;t it be better to, at least, put a link in the full text to let those who want to read it in the good context be able to read it ?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think a link with a warning would work.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Chapter 16 still links to 16.5... is this intentional or a a side-effect of the nav template? -[[User:Milki|milki]] 03:53, 18 February 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I did not realise there was a chapter 16.5 at all before I came over this... And now that I&#039;ve seen it, I agree that it shouldn&#039;t be put in the full text. What I&#039;m wondering about, though, is if Reki Kawahara really wrote this himself, where it was published and how on earth it came to this site. Oh, and this chapter might be a little hard to notice if you go directly to the full text to read volume 1.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
-&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You know - this is pretty much under the carpet now, but I think this was handled pretty poorly. If 16.5 was not canon, it should have been put under the side stories with an R-18 warning. The author had it on his website with other stories that are up here, so the argument that he didn&#039;t write it is not a very good one. Age appropriate is not good either - R-18 warning as stated, but this site is not an all-ages site to begin with. You have R-18 visual novel projects, Type-Moon&#039;s numerous titles, etc. Some of the posts for removing it were downright confusing: &amp;quot;it left a bad taste in my mouth.&amp;quot; Or &amp;quot;look at what people recognize me for.&amp;quot; I&#039;m sorry, but...what? You didn&#039;t like a chapter, so it should be erased from history? One is going to quit translation of this series because of the &amp;quot;infamy&amp;quot; of it? I know you aren&#039;t in this for public recognition, so why do you care about that? This massive double standard with sexual content is an American value style product that confuses me, but it shouldn&#039;t be influencing what goes up and comes down. We have titles on here that involve graphic descriptions of extreme violence, graphic descriptions of sexual content and innuendo, as well as images of nude people of all ages and violence against them to accompany them. I am really disappointed that management is going down this route, because it&#039;s only a matter of time before other titles get censored or screwed up because of this new standard. - somewhat disappointed and concerned long time reader. --Anonymous&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
In my opinion, this wouldn&#039;t be so much issue if the chapter wasn&#039;t included in volume 1 to begin with, it being up there caused confusion to many readers as they think it&#039;s actually in the published version, I was under that very impression for a while, until I had chance to check the JP book version.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
@anon, it seemed you misunderstood the fact, author really wrote 16.5 and he really put it on his website, but he &#039;&#039;never&#039;&#039; put it along with the web version of Aincrad arc, he made a temporally R-18 section named &#039;Word Gear Reverse&#039; and put 16.5 along with some R-18 stories written by someone else  there. So putting it in volume 1 section is a bad idea, and that&#039;s the reason I was strongly against it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Currently BT has a vague stance about the mature content, there is no rule preventing the mature content to be hosted on wiki, but in forums, the rules clearly stated that posting mature content is not permitted. Maybe the higher ups could discuss about this double standard and come up with a single rules set for both wiki and forums.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On a side note: Why so many complaints about the removal of 16.5 but no one cares that ME1&amp;amp;3 can&#039;t be hosted here? Especially when ME1 is mentioned in both anime &amp;amp; published volumes. Just curious. -- [[User:BeginnerXP|BeginnerXP]] ([[User_talk:BeginnerXP|Talk]]) 08:33, 17 September 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Honestly, I don&#039;t want to shift the blame here nor try to explain myself since I suppose none of you would want to hear me out, so I&#039;ll take responsibility for this. Mature content &#039;&#039;&#039;can&#039;&#039;&#039; be posted on the wiki, but &#039;&#039;&#039;must&#039;&#039;&#039; be labelled with a warning, an R-18 tag. However, this is a different case for the forums, where no one is allowed to post such stuff. If you wonder why there is a different standard for the forums, it&#039;s because the rules for the forums were &#039;copied&#039; from Animesuki...Personally, I don&#039;t believe there&#039;s a need to review it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As for your last paragraph, Beginner, I think you would know the answer...--[[User:Teh Ping|Teh Ping]] ([[User talk:Teh Ping|talk]]) 21:31, 17 September 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I was not trying to shift blame, only point out the issues with said reasoning. I was particularly surprised that Ping said what he did because he always seemed opposed to removing content over anything that didn&#039;t involve content getting licensed or users making unjust profits. Like I said, I just thought it was handled poorly: it should have simply been moved to the side story section and given an R-18 warning. I did not know about other stories being removed, but if they have, I would of course recommend the same action. Removing R-18 content like this just creates needless problems involving content that BT shouldn&#039;t have to deal with. For example, it&#039;s really easy to argue that DxD or Campione should not be hosted because of their content based on this decision (there is not a single warning of R-18 content either.) It is not any of you guys&#039; responsibility to be the parent for children lurking the internet, anyway. It had a warning when I read it last time, and when I came back to re-read SAO, it was gone completely. I do not have any thoughts about the forum; as it is separate from the Wiki, I do not think it is a problem to enforce a different set of rules. On a closing note, please take this less personally, Ping. I am not making you out to be a &amp;quot;bad person&amp;quot; or whatever strange thoughts you&#039;re having. I wanted my thoughts known, but I didn&#039;t want to clog up the forum seeing as it seemed to be a dead issue. While I would want any removed stories to be restored, the management and translators such as yourself are obviously the ones who have the final word. Restricting content because it doesn&#039;t appeal or seem appropriate to (x) audience is a dangerous direction to go for BT though, I feel. Take it easy and thanks for reading. --Anonymous&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
@Beginner, does ME 1 &amp;amp; 3 contain questionable content? All I know is that they are doujins, so might not belong in a LN wiki like BT. Maybe a link might be good instead of no content (which had me assume no work was done on it, up until recently), but thats up to the heads.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
@Teh Ping, I respect you for your decision to take responsibility for the ire of readers on removing the chapter, though I think its not something you have to do (if it was made out of frustration and a wish for the topic to be dropped). Not sure what was the cause of the removal (I&#039;m willing to listen if you have the time to chat),  I cannot help but feel those who complain so much about it, will not or can not see beyond wanting to have everything in one place for their convenience (the internet is a wide place after all). For those stating it affects BT, do realize that even novels on the market are constantly being revised and edited as they are reprinted, to fit the standards of the time. Removing one event which does not have much plot context (unlike the anime...) and is not even part of the published novel is not going to affect anything, and is a weak point for argument. Comparing other LNs to this is even weaker, considering those rarely even reach the level of content shown here (LNs get edited before release as well...) So do consider your argument on insisting you must be able to find it on BT.--[[User:Gabgrave|Gabgrave]] ([[User talk:Gabgrave|talk]]) 01:51, 18 September 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
@Anon, While I don&#039;t read nor watch DxD &amp;amp; Campione, I know for sure that those 2 series are at most R-15 and still can be sold at normal channels in Japan, while 16.5 is in a completely different situation, it&#039;s clearly R-18 and will never be able to sell alongside other light novels even if it&#039;s published. It&#039;s fine if you compared 16.5 to our visual novel projects, but please give a legit example of R-18 light novel hosting here.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
@Gabgrave, ME1&amp;amp;3 are manga written by author himself, their content are clean, and I particularly like ME1 too, you should be able to find them at some online manga reading sites. The reason we can&#039;t hosted them even though they&#039;re both completely scanslated now, is because of its nature, we don&#039;t host manga here unless the script is posted as well (like ME2). The reason is legit and I respect that decision, it&#039;s just funny that the removal of the questionable content caused so much stir within SAO community here, while 2 clean &amp;amp; good legit stories from the same author not being here didn&#039;t raise any question nor request.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
@Beginner, Thanks for the description, I have the links and will be looking them up. I think why people are not commenting is because like me, they see the red links in the page, and assume they are not translated yet. Only if we happen across some comments that make us aware that they do exists already, then we start looking for it.--[[User:Gabgrave|Gabgrave]] ([[User talk:Gabgrave|talk]]) 02:25, 18 September 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

Firstly, when I say trying to shift blame, I would refer to the guy who actually took down the page, Vaelis, the admin of the SAO project. On Baka Tsuki, each project can be removed by three groups of people. The translator of the work, the Supervisors, and the admins. Since we&#039;re going to be stuck here for a while, I&#039;ll break it down.&lt;br /&gt;

First, while I said that I didn&#039;t like having 16.5, I respect the fact that it was uploaded. That was why I never demanded for it to be deleted, even though I am vocal against those who wanted it on &#039;&#039;&#039;just to see that Kirito and Asuna have their relationship consummated&#039;&#039;&#039;, which is a completely stupid excuse (note that I don&#039;t say reason here because there was nothing reasonable at all). When I posted &#039;&#039;&#039;in white&#039;&#039;&#039; that I would go unless it was removed, note that it was in jest. Do note that while I am against it being posted, I am neutral against it being removed because the damage had already been done. [http://www.baka-tsuki.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=59&amp;amp;t=3128&amp;amp;start=2040 All the mess can be read from here until the next 5 pages or so] If you had seen my actions during the Volume 9 incident, you would have realized that if I wanted a page to be deleted, I would have just gone ahead to delete all the stuff way back when I joined this project (as a Supervisor), and how I nearly nuked the entire Accel World project here. Now, I really don&#039;t want Vaelis to be blamed for this, but he did delete it after reading through our arguments (on both parties). This is why I say that I will just take all the blame, because if I go on to explain, other people are just going to be implicated as well, (and I&#039;m pretty much...the fall guy on Baka Tsuki at this point). If you&#039;re going to talk about how I had been whining about it affecting my rep, Gabgrave made the mistake I knew was coming from a mile away (before correcting it). No one is trying to be a &#039;parent&#039; here, but I won&#039;t be elaborating on this part because I&#039;m in class right now&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And yes, I am very frustrated that we&#039;re still arguing over when it has been almost 3 months since this was &#039;resolved&#039;. Unfortunately, I don&#039;t think there would be a proper conclusion in this case. The way we have been going on about this is as if some important story was omitted like how Kirito took on Heathcliff. If you say that it&#039;s important, understand this, it&#039;s not in the official printed LN. If you argue for the case of how the MEs and other stuff are all uploaded even though they&#039;re not in print media, again, bottom line is whether the three groups of people want it online.--[[User:Teh Ping|Teh Ping]] ([[User talk:Teh Ping|talk]]) 04:06, 18 September 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It seems like my point is being missed...removing content because it is &amp;quot;objectionable,&amp;quot; is not something I think BT should do. It&#039;s not in the official printed LN, which is why I said it should be moved to side stories. I don&#039;t really care if it consummates their relationship or not (it&#039;s a harem where one girl is given the &amp;quot;I&#039;m going to win regardless&amp;quot; before said chapter even happens, so...) There is no such thing as &amp;quot;damage done&amp;quot; if you ask me: if the author thought it was good enough to be on his site, I&#039;m not going to judge it as some &amp;quot;garbage&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;painful to read&amp;quot; work of a fan. And while you, Gabgrave, may think DxD/Campione is not R-18, you would have an incredibly hard time persuading someone who was raised in a Western environment otherwise (I read all three of these titles, and they go pretty far, haha.) I&#039;m not sure why anyone is getting upset over this, but I can&#039;t keep a rational topic going for long if I&#039;m the only one trying to do so. I&#039;ll drop it with this. -- Anonymous&lt;br /&gt;

Can&#039;t believe I actually registered an account just to respond to this message. Look, are you trying to guilt trip the other guys here, or are you just trying to get them to say sorry for removing and stuff? From the look of your first paragraph, it already showed that you were trying to blame someone for this, especially Teh Ping. I can understand why Ping wanted to hurry up and get over this because he has better things to do than to respond to someone like you who&#039;s digging up the past for your own sake. If you want to know where your beloved 16.5 went, just follow what Zero got to. Rational topic? How rational is it in the first place when you&#039;re talking about it, &#039;&#039;3 months after it was removed,&#039;&#039; when everyone is planning to just continue on, and how about talking about R-18 and stuff when your American standard doesn&#039;t match what the Japanese assume to be R-18? There&#039;s a reason why Campione and DxD are both published while this 16.5, even with Japan&#039;s lax standard for fanservice nowadays, failed to make the cut. Consider me grateful that it was taken down because it was such a huge distraction (Doesn&#039;t chapter 17 imply that they did it in the first place?). Now, if you&#039;re going to continue to post here regarding this, I think Teh Ping would be pissed that he has to be the one arguing with you instead of working on volume 10 of SAO (I can only remain patient as a reader).--[[User:Wertmog|Wertmog]] ([[User talk:Wertmog|talk]]) 21:38, 18 September 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m honestly kind of impressed. Like, why do either of you visit this site? Apparently neither of you can read at all! I do not care about too much about 16.5. It is easy to find and it does not add much, if anything, to the story. I care about the fact that &#039;&#039;&#039;IT WAS CONSIDERED SOMETHING THAT SHOULD NOT BE UPLOADED AND LATER REMOVED BECAUSE OF OBJECTIONABLE CONTENT.&#039;&#039;&#039; There is nothing about guilt trips and I have no idea why people like you have to make things personal despite my repeated assurances that I was not. The entire point of me bringing up standards is because &#039;&#039;&#039;THERE ARE NO SUCH STANDARDS.&#039;&#039;&#039; What is considered obscene in Japan is not considered obscene in the US, and the opposite is often true as well. When you do things like this, you create a standard. And creating this particular standard jeopardizes other projects in the future because declaring what content is appropriate is a &#039;&#039;very&#039;&#039; slippery slope. There is nothing to argue about; this is simply how things work. That concerns me and I would rather say &amp;quot;this looks dangerous&amp;quot; instead of standing by and waiting for things to play out. I&#039;m glad Ping cares enough to read and respond to my concerns, but it seems like he simply assumed I was complaining about how 16.5 is gone and nothing more. I don&#039;t want to assign &amp;quot;blame&amp;quot; or else I would be quite frank about it (as I am with you two.) I don&#039;t consider it his responsibility that the chapter was taken down, but BT&#039;s as a whole. Furthermore, Ping is free to do whatever he pleases; I doubt he considers &amp;quot;arguing&amp;quot; with me a priority when choosing between the browsing the internet, translating, and whatever other recreational stuff he does. So take your flame baits somewhere else. Or don&#039;t, I said I would drop this, and now I will. I voiced my concerns and what&#039;s done is done. If someone can&#039;t handle me having the last word, insult me or tell me how wrong I am... or let the issue die. Regardless, I wish the best to Ping and those involved with translating, as well as those who bothered to think about my concerns in a logical manner. --Anonymous&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Blablabla, immature question about intelligence of others, denial of topic at hand DESPITE this page and topic being what it is, then bringing up standards instead of in the... well, it&#039;s not that hard to make a new thread on forum, saying that there are no standards despite there being one, even if it is not recognized by you, stating the obvious &amp;quot;this is simply how things work&amp;quot;, ignores the fact that there were loads of people on BT arguing against removal, even if they lost, stating once again that will drop despite seeing the same words in the previous one, I cann&#039;t stand you having the last word(I&#039;m immature like that), your concerns are logical(so are the concerns of those who removed it. Did YOU think about that?) but your arguments are not. ~~ Just as Anon&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Umm... Could you stop using caps with bold? Personally I get what you&#039;re saying. I was against it&#039;s removal too, precisely because I didn&#039;t want to risk any more removals. But at the same time I understood their point of view as well. Therefore, if you want to read it then search out Tap-Trans (it&#039;s not like it&#039;s &#039;&#039;gone&#039;&#039; gone, just think it&#039;s re-located). That&#039;s all. Deal with it.

== Similar to Prince Revolution? ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;ve read two chapters of SAO and up to chapter 4 of PR&#039;s Vol3 and so far the settings are really similar, although they&#039;re different in terms of characters and amount of comedy and other things.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It may be very similar, but you can&#039;t say that this setting is very unique in terms of anime and manga, I mean, look at .Hack. I think that this is the similarity is only a result of the similar settings.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
_______________________________________&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Prince Revolution is the name of the site/group that translates the novel &amp;quot;1/2 Prince&amp;quot; by Yu Wo. Not the novel itself. There may be some similiarities to 1/2 Prince, the .Hack//-series or Yureka, but that is because all of them are about virtual reality MMOs. If you look at them from another point of view, you might see the differences in the plot. SAO is about being trapped in the game, with virtual death killing your real body and the struggle to escape this. This is not the case in 1/2 Prince, where the big problem lies in&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
-*************SPOILER ALERT START************ (Is it possible to put the following lines in a spoiler-tab? I have no idea how to do it)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
NPCs getting self-concious and revolting against human players in the game world. Yureka also have a few &amp;quot;virtual death = real death&amp;quot; parts, but the main story is about the main character finding the hacking program called Yureka who is somewhere in the game world. I haven&#039;t read .Hack//, so sadly, I can&#039;t say anything about that.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
-*************SPOILER ALERT END*************&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, think of this before you imply that a novel is a copy of another one. Sure, it may have been an inspiration to SAO (Actually, that depends on which of them were written first), but unless the plot is the exact same thing, they are looked at as two different novels. An example of this is Lion King. It is inspired by Hamlet, but would you sue Disney for trying to copy Shakespeare?&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Just a little trivia: December was dubbed &amp;lt;&amp;lt;The Month of Holly&amp;gt;&amp;gt; here, because the kanji character for holly (柊; commonly read as &#039;&#039;Hiiragi&#039;&#039;) can also be read as &amp;quot;Noel&amp;quot;, which also means Christmas. And since Christmas falls on December 25th, well you&#039;ve got the point. Hope this help :)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Well, all 12 months of Aincrad were given names after a kind of tree, so I&#039;m sure it&#039;s an in-game thing. People don&#039;t actually call it the month of Holly irl  --[[User:M.A.D|M.A.D]] - [[User_talk:M.A.D|Talk]] 11:24, 16 August 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

== Is there going to be a SAO-manga or did I just see something else? ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hey, &lt;br /&gt;
I just saw some kind of SAO-manga and wasn&#039;t quite sure what it actually was - a oneshot? some fan-made stuff? or is there really going to be a SAO-manga?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It&#039;s about 33pages long and just looked like the beginning of the first volume, though it was a little different.&lt;br /&gt;
And as I neither have seen anything about a SAO-manga existing up till now nor am able to read japanese, I just thought I&#039;d ask here. &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== LAUGHING COFFIN ARC ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ok, I have been debating with myself (I&#039;m going nuts) whether to add the LAUGHING COFFIN ARC in the table of contents- It seems that this arc, happened during Aincrad, a side story that should be included in the Volume 2. But because it&#039;s long (4 chapters) the publishers dropped it, but the events in this is mentioned in vol.1, tho, in a few words only. It&#039;d be nice if we can read the entire story about this right? Kirito, Asuna and other Clearers vs the Laughing Coffin Guild, the biggest PKers in Aincrad. - Saorian&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;d love to read the laughing coffin arc. From what I&#039;ve heard, it might be important to some of the other books. But, would you add it as if it were another book - like instead of Sword Art Online: Volume ## --&amp;gt; Sword Art Online:Laughing Coffin Arc?--[[User:Darn2k|Darn2k]] 14:36, 15 April 2011 (UCT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
How about like this: Volume SS - LAUGHING COFFIN ARC , and stick it between Volume 2 and 3? - Saorian&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I added it - since Side Stories 1,2,3,6 were made into vol2 Aincrad, Side Stories 4 included in Phantom Bullet vol 5 and Side Story 6 got it&#039;s own very own book, vol 7 - It&#039;s safe to say that SAO SS 5 - Laughing Coffing Guild arc, won&#039;t get published as it&#039;s Timeline was passed on already (between vol 2 and 3) The other SS respected the proper timeline...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
----&lt;br /&gt;
Btw. if more timeline issues pop up you could create a timeline page, where the story is listed sorted in chronological order... --[[User:Darklor|Darklor]] 21:57, 16 May 2011 (UCT)&lt;br /&gt;
----&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So is this chapter even published? Because from what I read here it seems it&#039;s out but nobody wants to add it cause we already went past it in chronological order.&lt;br /&gt;
I fail to see how that&#039;s a reason though as the special with Kirito meeting Asuna was inserted after we went past those event.&lt;br /&gt;
Can someone clarify?&lt;br /&gt;

== Simply Amazing ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is simply amazing. Honestly I&#039;m not much of a crybaby I watch and read sad animes and mangas all the time and just take them in as a story. So far I&#039;ve only cried twice during watching all the animes and mangas I&#039;ve seen in the past 5,6 years of my life, to Bitter Virgin (Manga) and to Kanon 2006 (anime... which truthfully I watch all eps in a single sitting crying from ep 7 onwards practically non stop.). So far this Story has made me cry numerous times. It is so well written and the characters are so real its strange.Only problem I have with it is that I don&#039;t like how volume 2 works. I only really like the AsunaxKirito/Kazuka storyline not all that extra stuff that doesn&#039;t continue on with the story. Sadly the way I see it after reading Volume 1 I can&#039;t see any room for a prequel. The story starts with entering SOA. And nothing that happens up until he kills the Ragout Rabbit matters. I spose how Asuna and Kirito initially met matters slightly but honestly, I find it much better knowning that they knew each other as acquaintances and thats all. Even the part about him having Asuna nap next to him really doesn&#039;t add all that much.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Volume 3 while not as touching seems to bring up a lot of my memories of the first volume as well as adding in some slight new things... it doesn&#039;t really seem it (so far only on chapter 3) but it does so in a subtler way then Vol 1&lt;br /&gt;

Well, read volume 2 as it comes out and stuff. It is full of Kirito&#039;s awesomeness.

Is someone translating this? --[[User:Darklor|Darklor]] 15:43, 14 June 2011 (UCT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I don&#039;t think so, or at least if it is, no-one has updated to show a larger portion of the story. which is a pity really because there aren&#039;t enough translators, though if decent enough translations are made part by part, and the abundant editors will probably be able to sort out grammar and consistency [[Special:Contributions/92.41.251.249|92.41.251.249]] 16:39, 7 November 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I believe it is being translated, but might not be posted here yet because of the Alitization spoilers [[User:Bilagaana|Bilagaana]] ([[User talk:Bilagaana|talk]]) 16:56, 7 November 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

== Appreciate the work ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hey, I recently started reading sword art online, and I sincerely appreciate the work that&#039;s been done thus far. I&#039;d love to contribute, but an upcoming major exam&#039;s hogging my time. Sword Art&#039;s been great read, and it really helps in stress relief. Once again, thanks all.&lt;br /&gt;
this page has now gotten over 1,000,000 views!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Great story, great translation! ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I just finished volume 4 and I wanted to stop by and say how awesome you guys are for translating this.&lt;br /&gt;
This series is a great piece of science fiction and I&#039;m glad you guys are bringing it to another audience.&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;ve heard how troublesome and time consuming translating can be, especially Japanese, but you&#039;re all doing an awesome job!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Keep up the good work! :)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== I think this is an issue ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Chapter four of Mother&#039;s Rosario has the link that leads to chapter five, but chapter five isn&#039;t shown as being done or having any link on the main project page.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Probably means that the translator doesn&#039;t want his incomplete work to be shown to the masses yet I guess.--[[User:WingsofSnow|WingsofSnow]] 09:44, 16 September 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
haha yeah an anime adaptation (w/ Accel world)&lt;br /&gt;
Hope it will be good like .hack&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I heard a game is coming underway too, is that true?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
How many episodes do you suppose there will be in the anime? Hope they&#039;re more than 12. Also is there only one season planned or will that depend on the ratings? GAME?!?!? mmo based on ALO or visual novel?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Replacement of nav table with nav template ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I would hence like to propose that we replace the current (and if I may say, extremely limited capability carrying) nav table system:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
ie:&lt;br /&gt;
{| border=&amp;quot;1&amp;quot; cellpadding=&amp;quot;5&amp;quot; cellspacing=&amp;quot;0&amp;quot; style=&amp;quot;margin: 1em 1em 1em 0; background: #f9f9f9; border: 1px #aaaaaa solid; padding: 0.2em; border-collapse: collapse;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
| Back to [[Sword Art Online:Volume 2 Chapter 3|Chapter 3]]&lt;br /&gt;
| Return to [[Sword Art Online|Main Page]]&lt;br /&gt;
| Forward to [[Sword Art Online:Volume 2 Chapter 4 Part 2|Part 2]]&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
with the new [[Template:SAO Nav|SAO Nav Template]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
ie: {{SAO Nav|prev=Sword Art Online:Volume 2 Chapter 3|next=Sword Art Online:Volume 2 Chapter 4 Part 2}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
which is becoming popular and has more capabilities/advantages.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Advantages of the new system:&lt;br /&gt;
#We can decrease the overall page storage size. (No need to write long code, just the call code will be enough, take a look of this section in edit mode to get the picture.)&lt;br /&gt;
#Have a call code that is easier to:&lt;br /&gt;
##memorize&lt;br /&gt;
##recall&lt;br /&gt;
##and write. (Again, see in edit mode if you still don&#039;t understand)&lt;br /&gt;
#Have page jumping ability to any page in the series regardless of where we currently are, thus speeding up page navigation in case of checking previous or future facts for comparison.&lt;br /&gt;
#Can make changes to template page itself and have the navs on the pages immediately mirror the changes. (Reduction of data redundancy and error, ie: you wont have to go through all the pages and change every single one just editing the template page will be enough).&lt;br /&gt;
#Template&#039;s next and prev links are generic so they can be used for both volume and chapter pages without problems, ie: uniform system.&lt;br /&gt;
#Collapsibility ensures that size is compact and acceptable, for jumping one just needs to expand it by clicking the [show] link.&lt;br /&gt;
#Page center aligned. (Not really important, it looks better than right aligning it, still... minor point)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This template was previously fully implemented but then removed due to some issues. All those in favor or against please respond. If you wish any improvements to the template then please suggest them on the [[Template Talk:SAO Nav]] page. I will address them as best as I can.

&lt;br /&gt;
Hey hey. If there is no one against it then it is fine to implement it, right? I mean the advantages listed above show that it is more beneficial to implement. And no one having any points against it kinda also suggests the same. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 07:34, 28 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m against it and I already implemented a nav bar with most of the advantages you mentioned. I put it in volume 1 and will do the other volume soon.&lt;br /&gt;
[[User:Vaelis|Vaelis]] 08:47, 28 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hmm so you are using this:&lt;br /&gt;
{{Nav|Sword Art Online:Volume 1 Chapter 1|{{SAO List v1a}}|Sword Art Online}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Page jumping is still not implemented. That is the main functionality of my proposed template. And you say that you are against it? May I ask why? Please explain in detail. I say that there is a great advantage in implementing it because it will allow both users and translators to jump between pages.&lt;br /&gt;
*Translators will be able to navigate between their different chapters more easily and create new chapters with just a click. &#039;&#039;(Plus since the chapter page names will be decided beforehand there won&#039;t be a chance of page name inconsistency that often happens.)&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
*Furthermore, users will be able to navigate more easily as well &#039;&#039;(in the case of dead ends as well as to check a previous chapter for a related fact, or to skip a volume while re-reading, people do that you know)&#039;&#039;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If I recall previously you mentioned that you didn&#039;t like how the template &#039;&#039;looks&#039;&#039; like, is that correct? I must tell you that Infinite Stratos, Itsuka Tenma, Toaru, BakaTest, Chrome Shelled Regios, Dantalian no Shoka have all implemented and started making use of similar templates. I&#039;m only trying to do what is best for this project. Please support me. I assure you that you won&#039;t regret it. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 17:26, 28 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On the opposite side the template Vaelis has implemented is rather interesting. Hmm it has properly addressed the problem of repetition, excessive space wastage, as well as the non-user-friendly coding. Particularly that is automatically generating the links. Very interesting. I&#039;ll examine it thoroughly. Maybe I can implement that in my templates somehow. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 17:28, 28 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

Hey hey. We need more participants in this discussion. Please tell us which template you think has more functionalities. User feedback is essential. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 17:37, 28 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I don&#039;t know about other people, but all I need is the link back to Main. The Back and Next is nice extra. For reading, I mainly use my other comp that is not logged on, so I can read cached stuff which is faster. If people don&#039;t already know, if you sign in with a name while reading, you get served fresh pages every time, anon people get faster cached pages.

&lt;br /&gt;
- Personally, I don&#039;t really care as long as &amp;quot;forward&amp;quot; &amp;quot;main page&amp;quot; are included, since I simply tap backspace to get back, though I must say it&#039;d look ugly without the &amp;quot;back button&amp;quot;. Also, jumping through halyard from a volume to another volume is, I must say, unuseful in my case. However, I find the nav bar pretty good-looking, which is the reason why I wasn&#039;t fully opposed back then, even if I was sceptical about it. Personally, if the bar could simply keep the back/forward buttons, the main page buttons, it&#039;d be fine, though I would like the chapter names indicated on th next/previous button. Also, I feel more concerned about these huge references tag that take too much space in the text than the nav bar... [[User:Kira0802|Kira]] ([[User_talk:Kira0802|Talk]]) 21:09, 28 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I agree with Kira. Note this isn&#039;t about SAO directly but rather about this type of navbar as a whole. If I really want to jump chapters/volumes, I really won&#039;t care about 2 clicks instead of 1 (Main -&amp;gt; the chapter I want). Actually, I don&#039;t even use the Main button much, just the Forward one. I can&#039;t recall ever using the Back button. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For me I&#039;m fine whether or not the chapter name is included, because when just reading I don&#039;t care what the name of the next chapter is, I can just click Forward to get to it, and when I&#039;m editing stuff I use the Main Page as a portal (it&#039;d be open in a tab by itself) and the chapter names are available there.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In fact, I&#039;ve even created a group of navs that have most of the advantages you state and maintains the simplicity of the Nav template, but is in my opinion better than the generic Nav template, in that it is specialized for each novel, so if it needs to be changed for some specific novel it can be done without affecting any of the other novels. They can be found [[:Category:Simple_Navbars|here]]. It would be nice if there is some kind of standard that could be decided, for the moment anyways. By the way, I&#039;m starting to think this doesn&#039;t fit in the SAO talk anymore and maybe should have a forum topic.. --[[User:Jonathanasdf|jonathanasdf]] 21:43, 28 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hmm, interesting points, I&#039;ll try and explain my reasoning below:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*You guys might say that you don&#039;t care but you must admit that it is much easier to navigate if it is a one step method (chapter A -&amp;gt; chapter B) rather than a two step method (Chapter A -&amp;gt; Main Page -&amp;gt; Chapter B). While you may say you might not care, page jumping can help speed up navigation for those who reach dead ends or are translating multiple chapters at the same time. Plus the Next, Previous and Main Page Links are already present in the SAO Nav. Additionally I don&#039;t think forum is needed. This is about SAO strictly.&lt;br /&gt;
*About chapter names included in the next previous: my stance is that it makes the whole thing look bulky. And you can simply expand SAO Nav not only to see your own position (black text) but also the positions of all the chapters (translated and untranslated) this helps motivate people to translate more chapters in less time because of the clash between the visual red and blue links.&lt;br /&gt;
*Those who strictly want to use the next/previous/main buttons need not expand the template at all just use the Next, Prev and Main Page Name Links. It&#039;s a system that caters to both types. And just doesn&#039;t restrict itself to one type. Plus the SAO Nav is for the SAO Novels alone so making changes in it will only affect SAO and no other novels.&lt;br /&gt;
*I am not a fan of the words forward and back since they give off a vibe in terms of page navigation history rather than novel navigation (by page history navigation I mean those two back and forward buttons in the Navigation Toolbar of your Internet Browser).&lt;br /&gt;
*Simple Navs only cater to those who read through linearly and only once. Not everyone does. SAO Nav caters to both parties and it&#039;s already ready to roll, so why is it wrong? [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 23:37, 28 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 this helps motivate people to translate more chapters in less time because of the clash between the visual red and blue links.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
hahaha if only that was true :P&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It&#039;s not &amp;quot;wrong&amp;quot; imo, it just seems a bit ... overkill. I&#039;m neither for nor against, in that my stance is &amp;quot;I don&#039;t really care either way as long as there is some way to get to the next chapter&amp;quot;, but I would like it to be standardized. Also, even if this is SAO only I still think it belongs in the forums because it&#039;s hard to quote stuff in wiki. --[[User:Jonathanasdf|jonathanasdf]] 00:54, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It&#039;s actually true. It&#039;s a subconscious trick I learned from my experience with mediawiki. People can&#039;t stand redlinks. They desire to remove them or turn them blue. If they can&#039;t remove them then they can &#039;&#039;&#039;only&#039;&#039;&#039; turn them blue by making articles. This is one of the things I have learned. Please have faith in me. I believe this trick has actually helped speed up the translation rates on many of the projects where similar templates have been implemented. I don&#039;t know about you guys, but I am sick and tired of waiting. If only I could read kanji/hiragana/katagana, I could help translate. But since I can&#039;t I must use such methods. If I didn&#039;t I&#039;d just be a simple leacher (At least this way I can contribute indirectly). Furthermore, I assure you that my template will sate &#039;&#039;&#039;both&#039;&#039;&#039; those who want linear navigation &#039;&#039;&#039;and&#039;&#039;&#039; those who need to jump between chapters quickly. Isn&#039;t that better than just favoring one party? [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 10:20, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I hereby declare. Implementing SAO Nav &#039;&#039;&#039;will&#039;&#039;&#039; improve not only the navigation but also the rate of translation. It is a time-tested surefire method. Please support me. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 10:34, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There&#039;s no need for that. Ping&#039;s doing a good job enough so we don&#039;t need to subconsiously press him. IMO, anavbar should just go forward and to the main page. No, wait, you just need to click &#039;SAO&#039; on the sidebar to get back to the main page. Also, Zero, I&#039;ll ask you this: When do you surf through a certain chapter of a volume to another chapter 2-3 volumes after? There&#039;s no need for that, and in my old computer, the bar colapses too slowly. Not that I do really mind, since it&#039;s at the bottom, but still, it loads unnecessary content. [[User:Kira0802|Kira]] ([[User_talk:Kira0802|Talk]]) 11:15, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I prefer the old one for its simplicity. Just go for previous/next chapter, and navigate 2 other chapters frm main page. short n simple. --[[User:Chancs|Chancs]] 11:29, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Time-tested surefire method? Where&#039;s the evidence? As for why I personally don&#039;t think the chapter jumping is useful, it is because I actually rely on chapter titles to look for where I want to jump to, and this navbar doesn&#039;t have (and can&#039;t really have) chapter titles. So, to me there is no advantage of this navbar over the old one, so I am not supporting it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At the same time, to me there is no disadvantage that this navbar brings since my internet and computer are fast enough to load both at around the same speed, so I am not against it either... --[[User:Jonathanasdf|jonathanasdf]] 13:13, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I completely agree with &#039;chapters title&#039; issue --[[User:Chancs|Chancs]] 13:27, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Simple design is fine, but the aforementioned lack of chapter title is a huge turn-off for me as well --[[User:TheQwertiest|TheQwertiest]] 14:15, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is time tested. Shortly after it&#039;s implementation Infinite Stratos picked up it&#039;s pace of translation as did Itsuka Tenma and Baka Test, I will concede that for some reason it didn&#039;t work on Hidan no Aria, but it still has a high success rate. Toaru and Chrome Shelled don&#039;t count because they are near completion. About the chapters title issue. I can easily implement further variable tags that can take chapter names from writers and thus display them like the nav table of old. Even though I won&#039;t like that but if you guys say that you prefer it that way I can do it. Or I can Implement a system like the one in the [[Template:Nav]]. To have both links and have chapter names be generated automatically. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 16:20, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I surf/go back to check up on a previous fact. For example in chapter 9 of volume 4 the people from Volume 2 make an appearance. I can go back to refresh my memory of them. And sorry I don&#039;t just read a story once. I find that I understand new things each time I read them (like foreshadowings, predictions, etc). Each time I read through I find new and more interesting tidbits. And I am not alone in this. Each and every person goes through stories more than once, either due to the aforementioned reasons or just because they want to read through it again. And it is not definite that they will read through all the volumes linearly. Some might want to skip certain volumes. And I for one find going back to the main page tiresome. It&#039;s unnecessary. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 16:33, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Though &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. Infinte Stratos was pretty much because Ping joined in. The content is rather easy. So is Baka-Test. I don&#039;t know about Itsuten though. However, the implentation of nav bar coincided with the summer vacations, if I remember well, so it&#039;s another factor.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. OK, fine, some do use the &#039;skip a few chapters&#039; function. However, from what I see from the comments, no one else needs it really.&lt;br /&gt;
[[User:Kira0802|Kira]] ([[User_talk:Kira0802|Talk]]) 16:59, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Yeah, I&#039;m not sure that counts as proof, since the cause-effect could really go either way. Rather, I have a feeling it is because the translation speed picked up that there was more attention which led to the navbar being implemented. After all, I only see this navbar in the most popular novels...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And I was talking about the chapter names in the expanded navbar. I don&#039;t really care about chapter names in the next/prev because the only time I need chapter names is when I&#039;m looking back for stuff. I don&#039;t think this navbar can easily have chapter name support in the expanded mode because some of them are really long. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;ll try to stop writing anything more here since my stance is neutral anyways... --[[User:Jonathanasdf|jonathanasdf]] 17:45, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;About being not needed:&#039;&#039; Dude, that&#039;s how all new things start out. People think they don&#039;t need them but give a while of use and it becomes indispensable. A few centuries ago people didn&#039;t need electricity or natural gas as much as they do now. But now, they start rioting if it&#039;s cut off for too long.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;About Translation Speed:&#039;&#039; Ping was present before the template was added as well but only two volumes were translated. However after the Infinite Stratos Nav was implemented I believe a fire was sparked in Ping. I believe the redlinks were the motivation or rather the inspiration he needed. Of course I don&#039;t think this method affects everyone. But I&#039;m sure it does affect some. and their example will move others, kind of like those cartoons where a little rock knocks down a bigger one which in turn knocks over an even bigger one, thus triggering an avalanche. We need to motivate people, even if the most mundane or subliminal methods are present I believe we should grasp and use them. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 17:49, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Even if it is circumstantial evidence at best I have faith in this method. About chapter names: True it would be difficult to implement full chapter names. But it is possible in some cases. However we are not talking abpout nav templates as a whole. Only for SAO. Please bear that in mind. And SAO does not have many named chapters. So that isn&#039;t an issue here. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 17:55, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
...Zero, why would Ping scroll the nav bar anyways to see the red links? In my case, I post the translation, then I say &#039;Goodbye&#039; and leave. Also, he posts his translation progression in the forums, in a portfolio. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For the chapter names, I&#039;d like to say that I want to know where I&#039;m heading when I press &#039;forward&#039;. Especially when there&#039;s 24 chapters in a volume that you don&#039;t care to remember which chapter you are on. [[User:Kira0802|Kira]] ([[User_talk:Kira0802|Talk]]) 21:38, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Seeing red once would be enough, it stays in your head. Plus it is a fact that the pace picked up after implementation. And like I said I can add the next/prev page name display functionality if you guys really want it. But that&#039;s something to be requested on the [[Template Talk:SAO Nav]] page. It&#039;s actually quite simple to implement that. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 00:45, 30 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
------------&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
OK, here are the facts, ingnoring the IS argument since it was mostly because Ping started translating like a madafter he finished Index. They obviously show the opposite of what you are saying. Here&#039;s my statement: &#039;&#039;&#039;The translation pace does not get faster if there is a nav bar of added, with all the red links and else. It might even slow the pace.&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Itsuten: Volume 1 got completed 7 days earlier than Volume 3. Volume 1 was done before the nav bar was added, and volume 3, after. Can&#039;t say if it worked or not, but it&#039;s more penching towards the &#039;no&#039; side.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Hidan no Aria: The comparison before/after is obvious. It didn&#039;t work.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Dantalian: What is the number of chapters completed since the nav bar was added? 0. It probably didn&#039;t work.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Chrome Shelled Regios: 41k done in around four months. Around 178k before for the same length of time. Didn&#039;t work.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Toaru Majutsu no Index, NT and SS: I can&#039;t find the updates page, but it probably changed nothing. However, Ping retired shortly after, so the place probably got slower. Following that reasoning, I say that it has less translation after. Though let&#039;s put this in the gray zone if you really want to insist.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Baka To test: Volume7 has been done in 78 days. Volume 3.5 in 76. Hwever, since the nav bar was added during the translation of 7, soI can&#039;t use that. As for Volume 7.5, I didn&#039;t calculate it as different chapters were done in different orders, and that I use the beginning of the first chapter and the creation of the full text as references.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Sword Art Online: During the time the bar was used, there were no completed chapters. Did not work.&lt;br /&gt;

:Finally, someone who does his homework. I see, but I still hold that it does motivate others at a subconscious level (so much so that people don&#039;t realize it, normal rate is that it takes half a year to translate a single volume). It does not change the fact that SAO Nav will make navigation easier. Does it? Easier navigation leads to more popularity in websites which in turn will lead to faster development here. &#039;&#039;&#039;[http://www.mardiros.net/good-navigation.html That is a fact]&#039;&#039;&#039; (See &#039;&#039;Less clicks the better&#039;&#039;). Jeez it&#039;s even drilled into every Computer Science student while discussing website development. Just look at the sidebar on the left. Why do you think they listed and linked the project names there when they could have made a separate page with the list? Answer: for faster navigation. Just because you won&#039;t use it, it&#039;s not right to ignore those who do. If you think there are people who would use it, shouldn&#039;t you accommodate them? Or will you ignore them just because they don&#039;t think like you. That&#039;s why I integrated next prev in all the nav templates, so that &#039;&#039;both sides would be happy&#039;&#039;.

&lt;br /&gt;
:You also mentioned (many posts ago) that the SAO Nav would collapse slowly. That&#039;s a personal problem. Since coding is used for the collapsing function, it stands that it&#039;s the fault of your computer alone. Nowadays everyone has at least a Core 2 Duo level processor. Those who don&#039;t are way behind the times. If you also have a Core 2 Duo or higher level processor then you must have CPU % intensive processes running on your computer in the background (try terminating them if there are, just be sure to check if they aren&#039;t a critical process on the net). But even if you don&#039;t and there is some other reason for the slowness that is no concrete reason to shelve faster navigation. The bar is at the bottom. By the time you would reach the bottom of the page (while reading) it would already have been collapsed. Like I said before it might not seem necessary now but give it a few weeks and it&#039;ll become indispensable. That&#039;s how it always goes with every new thing.

:Toaru and Chrome Shelled Regios were already near completion before the navbar was implemented. The navbar does not seem to work for nearly completed projects for some reason. I acknowledge that weak point. I also acknowledged that the navbar doesn&#039;t affect everyone but those it does effect would in turn affect others. As for SAO I don&#039;t think enough time was given before it was taken down. Thus that cannot be included. Hidan no Aria: well I won&#039;t say anything on those guys. They&#039;d probably take offense. But at least they didn&#039;t reject the template so they must have either found it useful or didn&#039;t care.

:Yes. Yes. Yes. I am a &amp;lt;big&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;BIG&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;/big&amp;gt; fan. But I can&#039;t translate (although I can be an editor/proofreader, but I don&#039;t think it&#039;s enough). So I did what I could and made a nav template with advanced features. I wanted to help in any way I could. And what happened? A few days later all the changes I made were removed just because it looked slightly different from before. Look, with progress comes change. You can&#039;t help it. If you can&#039;t adapt then we&#039;ll just stay stuck in the same place forever. If you google it you&#039;ll find thousands of articles by famous website developers saying one thing. The lesser the number of page loadings required to get to a goal the better, aka &amp;quot;less clicks the better&amp;quot;. Why do you think the sidebar with links to all projects exist? Why do you think that the chapters are transcluded into one volume page after said volume is completed? Answer: people want to reach their goal quickly and with less page loading. Please, I humbly request that I be allowed to apply SAO Nav. It will speed up page navigation for sure, thus it is &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;beneficial&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039; &#039;&#039;&#039;(not detrimental)&#039;&#039;&#039; to the SAO Project.

Think I have an idea about the resistance, your version is nice but it&#039;s a lot of work to update.

:I can promise to make and update them for a long time. And I promise that before I leave I will train a successor that can do it as good as or even better than me. I can&#039;t say forever since life doesn&#039;t have any guarantees. Plus actually the templates are understandable by anyone who just sits down and looks at the code properly. That&#039;s how I learned, at least (ie: By looking at others work and understanding how it is done). Furthermore I think there are candidates for my successor here already. Vaelis who designed [[Template:Nav]] for instance, there&#039;s also larethian. And what do you mean it is a lot of work to update? For a new volume, all you have to do is copy the code for the previous row, make the necessary changes (ie: change the volume number and chapter links) and viola! It isn&#039;t tough at all. The people at other projects have already learned how to update them. Just a few days ago [[Template:Hidan no Aria Nav]] was updated with a full volume and not by me.

I made a few adjustments thus reducing the height of the expanded template.

== About Volume 6 Chapter 13 ==&lt;br /&gt;

Excerpted from a dialogue from Vol. 6 Chapter 13:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kikuoka: &amp;quot;...That was really shocking. I thought that this little thing was the ALO support system «Navagiation Pixie»... but to gather so much information and make conclusions at such a short time. Little girl...are you interested in &#039;&#039;&#039;pu&#039;&#039;&#039;...no, do you want to work for the «Virtual Division»?&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;

I think it should be &amp;quot;la&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;ra&amp;quot; instead of &amp;quot;pu&amp;quot;. The &amp;quot;ra&amp;quot; part is actually a foreshadowing to the next main arc, Alicization.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I didn&#039;t really understand what he meant to say so I left it as the translator had it. I think the &amp;quot;pu&amp;quot; might be part of &amp;quot;public&amp;quot;?

I originally had it as Calibur for the sword name we are familiar with, but I happen to glance at the last chapter while counting parts, and sigh.

== Asuna&#039;s Avatar - a mystery ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Correct me if I&#039;m wrong, but didn&#039;t it say that Asuna did NOT buy the NervGear she uses when playing SAO? If so, why is her avatar a perfect image of herself? Didn&#039;t the sellers only scan the people who actually BOUGHT the NervGear? Since Asuna just used the NervGear which wasn&#039;t hers... wouldn&#039;t that make her avatar look like someone else? @___@&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Nah, you remember how Cline said when you start up you have to calibrate it to yourself? So when she put it on, she had to go through the calibration, thus it looks like her. [[User:Syaoran|Syaoran]] 01:14, 17 January 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I doubt that NervGear has the scanning functionality. As a specialized gear, it wouldn&#039;t need scanning functionality for normal game play. Another manga with a similar virtual reality background [http://www.batoto.net/comic/_/comics/yureka-r101 Yureka] has a similar avatar system and has a separate body scanning step as well. -[[User:Milki|milki]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Well, my evidence was these lines:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;There are high density signal sensors in the NERvGear covering our whole head. So it can tell not only how our brains look, but our faces too...&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
And&lt;br /&gt;
Calibration was where the NERvGear measured «how much you had to move your hand to reach your body». This was done to reproduce the sense of feel accurately within the game. So to say, it was almost as if the NERvGear had data about our exact figures saved inside itself. [[User:Syaoran|Syaoran]] 02:04, 17 January 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I suspect that, while the NERvGear would be able to scan the face to reproduce facial expressions to an extent, it does not do the same for the rest of the body. Calibration could probably be done by just measuring nerve signals - move your hand up towards you until you touch your body, and it would just recognize your hand/arm movement until you touch your body. -[[User:Milki|milki]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Actually, currently there is a machine that can calculate your body muscle and fat composition by running electricity though your body and it is just as big as a regular scale. Moreover it is easy to obtain your height and leg length through the calibration process. By applying this data, it is pretty easy to build a body that is similar to your current body.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Another theories is to use ultrasonic (or supersonic) sound wave to obtain your body image. NERvGear can emit microwave strong enough to melt your brain so it is not entirely impossible.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My concern is how the did it obtain the character hair style since the NERvGear is like a bike helmet ^^!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is only my speculation, anybody whom actually an expert in this field please feel free to correct--[[User:Hayate-sama|Hayate-sama]] 13:11, 17 January 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The NERvGear is an mini MRI/NMR (for scanning, and pulsed magnetic stimulation for feedback) so it can scan the head and face. No idea how it gets eye and hair color though. It might be able to find out the lenght of the hair and how curly/strait it is by the hight percition scanning. To even work the NERvGear needs submilimeter acuracy so scanning the hair will be easy. (Anon)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For the hair style: I think hair style is something the players can change by themselves, like how one can pick up movable objects, I think combing would be allowed at least. The only difference is hair color which, from what I know from Aria in the Starless Night (SAO SS), is customizable via a monster drop item. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 22:57, 17 January 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For the body, currently it is possible to take multiple photographs from different angles and compile them to make holograms, thus it should be possible to do the same here (especially since the tech is way advanced here). All one would need to make sure is that the height is given which could be used as a scale for the 3d photo. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 22:57, 17 January 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The skin tone, eye color etc could also be derived from photos, no mystery at all. You can be assured since I am a Computer Science graduate. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 22:59, 17 January 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wasn&#039;t there a part where they said her bro bought the NGear and the game, but could not play it as he was overseas, so she was the first to play it? In other words, Asuna would be the first user of the game, and it would be calibrated to her. This assumes that the brother is not a beater, but even then, beta accounts were deleted or reset at the commence of the full game. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If we are discussing about how the body type, height, weight, sex etc was captured, well, they did say they had to key in certain particulars, and run their hands around their bodies. About the Hair styles and color, perhaps its more of what NG reads the mind as being the most comfortable with, through reading of the brainwaves of users in the first hour. Afterall, its not like all the characters in SAO have black hair, but multicolored, which I&#039;m sure would not be true IRL... then again, this is aniverse after all... --[[User:Gabgrave|Gabgrave]] 23:23, 17 January 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

@Zero Yeah, you can use pictures to create a 3D object but the problem is how to take them ^^! unless you have a mirror as big as you, otherwise, it impossible to take those pictures yourself.--[[User:Hayate-sama|Hayate-sama]] 01:13, 18 January 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Please note that SAO occurs in a more advanced world. Furthermore I said that height would be given (ie: entered as a perimeter) so that it can be used as a scale. Thus resizing the image would be possible. Nowadays there are graphic plugins for GIMP and Photoshop that allow resizing (blowing up of pictures, or more simply, making them bigger) without loss of quality. In an advanced world it would be a better process and more commonly used (ie: common knowledge). The main point here is that what we consider specialized knowledge would be common in the setting of SAO. After all, &#039;&#039;virtual reality has become real&#039;&#039; in the setting.

A famous quote from Arthur C. Clarke: &#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic&amp;quot;&#039;&#039;&#039;. You shouldn&#039;t think so deeply on it. Also it&#039;s a fact that as time will pass, what is considered advanced now will be considered common in the future. A general purpose computer, at the beginning, was a machine that was superbly expensive so much so that the normal person could not own it. Nowadays it&#039;s in every home. Well that&#039;s over the span of 60 years.

Good luck~ I&#039;m sure a lot of reader are rooting for you (me included) ;) - [[User:RasteShelphyd|RasteShelphyd]] 15:15, 9 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Is chapter 6 the final one or is it chapter 7? Volume 6 starts from chapter 7, so is it just posted twice in volume 5 and 6?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There is chapter 6 and 7 in volume 5. There is also a chapter 7 in volume 6, that I wanted to make into prologue, but our admin Vaelis changed it back to like the book when he fixed the above mistake. PS: Volume 5 chapter 6 will be a while unless you all beg Teh Ping to help with it. [[User:Xplorer30|Xplorer30]] - [[User_talk:Xplorer30|Talk]] 23:33, 28 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

Aaaaah I see. Thank you for clarifying and keep up the good work, it&#039;s a lot more fun to read the properly translated versions over the machine translation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;PLEASE TRANSLATE VOL. 5 CHAPTER 6 :D (or upload what&#039;s done of it); It feels very awkward to simply skip 2/3 of a chapter.&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I don&#039;t mean to sound rude or anything but could the translators focus on finishing chapters 6 and 7 of Volume 5 , I do wanna read read aria in the starless night but even more than that I wanna finish reading Phantom bullet and there is just 2 untranslated chapters preventing me from reading an entire volume. Again I&#039;m sorry if I&#039;m acting rude, and I know that its not easy to translate. [[Username:Leonzell (not registered here) 1:44 AM GMT+10&lt;br /&gt;

Given the previous banter from certain users about this topic in the recent past, this does come off as a little rude. One of the translators, [[User:Teh_Ping|Teh Ping]] has already addressed this issue and has asked for additional help to translate. Otherwise, you can look at his user page for a timeline. -[[User:Milki|milki]] 09:54, 19 January 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

If you cannot wait, the first chapter of book 6 does cover the events that happen in those missing chapters in summary. You do not really need to worry if you will miss anything important, the main plot is covered. Just come back to read the details when it is done and posted up. --[[User:Gabgrave|Gabgrave]] 19:56, 19 January 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Actually, I still patiently waiting for chapter 6 to be fully translated, even though I have an urge to just skip it and read the volume 6.&lt;br /&gt;
But....how should I say it.... It feels &#039;incomplete&#039; if I just skip it (I&#039;m a bit perfectionist, sorry). So I beg you, if you have free time (which must be hard to find since you also have real life), please, would you consider to fully translate the chapter 6?

Don&#039;t know for sure, but I would need to check out how far the other translator got into the chapter. I got only a couple pages left of chapter 7 anyway, I sure could help out. Since your an editor, do you have the link for the google docs where the chapters are? If not, give me your email and I&#039;ll send you a link.--[[User:Desodus|Desodus]] 14:26, 22 February 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

Put it on my Talk page. As for how far chapter 6 has gotten: The point where Kirito purchases the Kouken (Light Saber). BTW, why isn&#039;t the chapter here on it&#039;s respective chapter page?

That&#039;s because all editing done by the BCotFM are done through google docs. But sadly, the group has been kinda falling apart as members have to answer to LIFE or got other projects.

There are a lot of different quotes used. Which one&#039;s should be used?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 contractions - &#039; or ’&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 terms - «» or &amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;&#039;&#039; (two single quotes)&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt; (understand that «» is for SAO terms,&lt;br /&gt;
 but if &amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt; is used, I don&#039;t know if its intentional or should be «»)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 quotes - &amp;quot;&amp;quot; or “” or &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
- [[User:Milki|milki]] 17:03, 18 February 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 Well, while writing on a piece of paper with a pen “” and ’ are used&lt;br /&gt;
 however &amp;quot;&amp;quot; are known as typewriter quotes and are also completely acceptable&lt;br /&gt;
 But &amp;quot;&amp;quot; or &#039; takes up less space so it is preferred for use in Media wiki based websites like this one.&lt;br /&gt;
 as for &amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt; These are used to &#039;&#039;italicize&#039;&#039; the text. Please ignore them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In other words it doesn&#039;t really matter unless you want to optimize space usage since they both look the same no matter which one you use. So please ignore it. Though the standard on all mediawiki based sites has &#039;&#039;&#039;always&#039;&#039;&#039; been &amp;quot;&amp;quot; and &#039;.

&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m a little confused. In the GGO arc... Is it &#039;&#039;&#039;Bullet&#039;&#039;&#039; of Bullets or &#039;&#039;&#039;Ballet&#039;&#039;&#039; of Bullets? Considering how Battle Tournaments are normally be named, &#039;&#039;&#039;Bullet&#039;&#039;&#039; of Bullets makes less sense than &#039;&#039;&#039;Ballet&#039;&#039;&#039; of Bullets (which actually fits more as far as tournament names go). Reason: fighting and dancing have often been interlinked. In medieval times strong noble warriors were also known for being good dancers since the movements used in battle are often similar to dance movements. See: [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capoeira Capoeira], [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calinda Calinda]. Oh I&#039;m getting off track. Anyways, since fighting and dancing are similar it&#039;s more likely the tournament is named &#039;&#039;&#039;Ballet of Bullets&#039;&#039;&#039; (even if guns are now used, it has historical meaning).

== Another SAO SS? ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Greetings. When I visited the author old site I saw several items that might be SAO SS.(well some are already being translated.)&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Like [Aria in the Starless Sky], [Absolute Solitude], [Fortune Star], [Resettable Saver], SS5-[A Murder Case in the Area], SS7-[Cradle of the Moon], and [Waterworks] (not sure about some of the title since I&#039;m using Google translate.)&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Aria in the Starless Sky&amp;amp;A Murder Case in the Area are already on translation. If it isn&#039;t too troublesome,may I ask if the other will also be put into translation somewhere in the near future? Thanks before.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m very intersting in those you mentioned as I have never run into them before, could you check if there&#039;re actual text inside? Of all those, I only have Cradle of the Moon, which is SS based on the Alizication arc, which is still untranslated so it has low priority for now. -- [[User:BeginnerXP|BeginnerXP]] 19:34, 15 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Greetings.Yes,I&#039;ve checked them.There&#039;re texts inside.But since I still haven&#039;t learned Japanese yet,I can only save it to MS Word/pdf format.Would you like me to send it to your e-mail address?Ah,I haven&#039;t ask your e-mail address yet.(I sincerely hope that they&#039;re SAO SS and can be of use to everyone.)[[User:User753|User753]]&lt;br /&gt;

Ok so now i am confused, so is &amp;quot;volume 9 - Alicization Beginning&amp;quot; not part of SAO or its is just the &amp;quot;web version - Alicization Arc&amp;quot; thats is not part of SAO?--[[User:Kyo171|Kyo171]] 00:55, 18 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Volume 9 is the version that is published, the web version is the version that was online. --[[User:Pryun|Pryun]] 01:12, 18 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ok.. so is the web version not part of the SAO universe with the kirito and asuna that we know? or its a separate story all together? [[User:Kyo171|Kyo171]] 01:19, 18 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The web version is similar to the published version, but not exactly the same. Any more information I can give is a spoiler, but if you don&#039;t mind spoilers you can go look at the images of volume 9. --[[User:Pryun|Pryun]] 01:23, 18 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hmm... roger that, coz i was confused looking at the images in vol 9 i see kirito and asuna that we are all familiar with, but in the web version there&#039;s a disclaimer saying that the kirito is not the kirito that we know of. I am talking about the roughly translated &amp;quot;Alicization Arc (Web Version)&amp;quot; in the mainpage btw. [[User:Kyo171|Kyo171]] 01:30, 18 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Alicization web version chapter 1 on the wiki is practically the same as the Prologue I of vol 9, author did a lot of minor changes including rewriting in a few places, but the overall summary is still the same. The reason readers felt it wasn&#039;t related to Kirito we know will be explained in the later chapters, but he&#039;s certainly the same Kirito. Alicization is currently the largest arc of SAO series (and I assume it&#039;d be the final main arc of the series too) and would need 5-6 volumes to cover its entire arc -- [[User:BeginnerXP|BeginnerXP]] 09:19, 18 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
ahhh.. thanks for the clarification, i have one more question, when would be the most optimum time to read the side story &amp;quot;versus&amp;quot;, the accel world crossover side story? I am currently on vol 5. --[[User:Kyo171|Kyo171]] 09:42, 18 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m not sure about Accel World side, but for SAO, there&#039;s no reference to anything significant after Fairy Dance, so I think it&#039;s fine to read it right after vol.4, but the story actually took place just slightly before Alicization arc, so author actually wants readers to read it after vol.8 (Accel World vol.10 released after SAO vol.8) -- [[User:BeginnerXP|BeginnerXP]] 10:27, 18 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== It&#039;s weird ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Aria in the Starless Night Side Story is when Kirito and Asuna meet for the first time in SAO. But do both or just Asuna forget about the other? In the other volumes it seems that Asuna got interested in Kirito after she saw him living (lazing around on the field) the game just as he would in reality (ie: the events in Vol8 Ch1, this is mentioned in other volumes too). Did Asuna forget about the events in Aria or what? Or did the author make a slight miss? [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  13:35, 21 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It might be best to think of it like they simply met at a coffee shop, sure, they were fighting alongside each other, but that wasn&#039;t enough to get them past a formal acquaintanceship. [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] 14:24, 21 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Heeh~ Sure &#039;&#039;and the whole bath thing just went over everybody&#039;s head~. Yup~ I&#039;m sure that was something easy to forget~.&#039;&#039; Like that&#039;d ever happen. That&#039;s why I&#039;m confused. He was the guy who introduced her to how food could taste better, he was the guy who taught her that there were better living conditions than INNs, he was the guy who taught her not to overkill and how to choose better weapons. I can get them being at the level of formal acquaintances till that point. What I&#039;m confused about is that in the other volumes there is no mention of her meeting him before the lazing around incident. Like they never even met before that. Weird isn&#039;t it? Well maybe it will be mentioned in vol8 chap1. I can&#039;t wait for the translation. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  16:39, 21 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

I think there was though, although it was a little subtle, back in the first volume, when it talked about Asuna going around and recruiting the boss assault team. [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] 17:32, 21 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I dunno, Asuna might have blocked off some of that since it wasn&#039;t an all pleasant experience for her. Plus she still did keep that I want to clear this as fast as possible attitude til she met him in the upper floors again, so maybe she just forgot about it while trying to clear? I will agree with you, it is a pretty bad plot hole since you gotta think about it a lot to find a reason. [[User:Syaoran|Syaoran]] 18:10, 21 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I don&#039;t think that it is really a plot hole, as aria is a side story, but then again, recently I have been feeling like Kawahara has been giving them too much time together in side stories, if they were in a group of seven in aria, it would have been much better I believe. [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] 18:13, 21 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was pretty weird that Asuna and Kirito don&#039;t remember this some minor details have also been left out while in volumes but this meeting is just too big of an event so that they could forget but well seeing it is just a side story I guess it should be just fine as just seeing it in a way like you have said before Asuna after not seeing him again just started going crazy wanting to clear the game and Kirito being a Kirito just kinda forgot since the next time they saw each other took place about 1 year and 5 months later??[[User:Lelouch545|Lelouch545]]3:54, 11 Jule (PCT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It&#039;s possible that the author hadn&#039;t thought of any of these events when he wrote Volume 1. There are plenty of other inconsistencies throughout the side-stories, too. Since the side-stories are added after the main arc is over, it&#039;s best not to delve in too deep --[[Special:Contributions/92.239.153.44|92.239.153.44]] 06:21, 11 June 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Thinking of it , they never said once that Asuna falled in love with Kirito at the first meeting right ? They said she loved him when she had seen him &amp;quot;living&amp;quot; the game , but being clearers , it was obvious that they had met each other a while before , for Bosses figths , while mapping or other game contents, so the two of them meeting after one month of game isn&#039;t weird right ? For the memories, do you recall all the things you&#039;ve done with your acquaintances ? I can&#039;t of course , and in SAO  I think there&#039;s a lot more of memories than in our real life, so memories about an other player they met and isn&#039;t that important for them isn&#039;t really worthy of being talked about in the main plot.

Material Editions? Is this the name of a new volume? Or a web volume? Or what? I need to know so that I can properly sort the info on the wikipedia page. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  17:07, 29 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Material Edition (ME) series is a series of &#039;&#039;&#039;doujinshis&#039;&#039;&#039; created by Kawahara Reki himself using the pen name &amp;quot;Kunori Fumio&amp;quot; (he used that pen name when he was writing the web novel of SAO). Most but not all of the volumes of the ME series are side stories. He sells the ME series at the Comitia market (not Comic Market) and also some doujinshi shops.&lt;br /&gt;
Below are the list of Material Edition volumes:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

* ME5 - Salvia&lt;br /&gt;
* ME6 - Algade Showdown&lt;br /&gt;
* ME7 - Continuation. Aria of the Starless Night&lt;br /&gt;
* ME8 - First Chapter of Rondo (second floor side story)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Should we just post links to batoto on the main page at ME 1 and 3? It seems a waste to do the same work twice. --[[User:Saganatsu|Saganatsu]] 17:42, 2 June 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m all for that idea. But will it be accepted? [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  03:24, 3 June 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Based on what I have seen so far I believe that ME1: The Progressors should be named &amp;quot;The Clearers&amp;quot; instead since that is what the title is talking about in regards to the story and all the translations so far have used the term &amp;quot;Clearer&amp;quot; instead of &amp;quot;Progressor&amp;quot; --[[User:Arctosa|Arctosa]] 10:43, 10 June 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
English text on every page of it says &amp;quot;The Progressors&amp;quot;. We know it&#039;s weird.--[[User:Saganatsu|Saganatsu]] 12:54, 10 June 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wouldn&#039;t it be better to rename the chapter pages to include ME#. Example: &#039;&#039;&#039;Sword Art Online:ME9:Monochrome Concerto&#039;&#039;&#039; I mean now that Rondo has continued, so will Monochrome Concerto. It will avoid clashing in the future since you&#039;re probably gonna insert the same include tags as you have in First Chapter of Rondo and then the page name conflict with the side story, y&#039;know. Plus it will become easier to categorize the ME chapters and compile them in the Material Editions volume page when they&#039;re all done.

So I&#039;ve been a long time visitor of Baka-Tsuki, but never bothered making an account. I&#039;ve been browsing a bit and was quite impressed with the To Aru Majutsu no Index PDFs. So, feeling obligated to do something, I took it upon myself to turn volume 1 of SAO into a PDF and put it onto MF. I hope that this is alright. &lt;br /&gt;

=== Aincrad stories chronological compilation ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hi everyone.&lt;br /&gt;
With the onset of the anime, I thought it would be nice to have all the Aincrad stories in chronological order, so I took the time to make one, please get the PDFs and EPUBs here &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
http://www.mediafire.com/myfiles.php#dxowqtn177i1o&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:Thank you very much for all those who have translated this awesome series! Please enjoy the Aincard arc from the beginning to the end, until the Author comes up with his official one! &lt;br /&gt;

== Congrats ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just wanted to thank all you guys for working hard and translating the SAO series.&lt;br /&gt;
Now that nearly everything is translated I wanted to ask, how far along is the novel in Japan? Cause when I try to look it up I cant read the pages cause they&#039;re all in Japanese D:&lt;br /&gt;
And is the &amp;quot;cradle of the moon&amp;quot; chapter going to be translated or not, cause from what I read it&#039;s included in the Alicization arc.&lt;br /&gt;
If it is I think it should be removed from the page, as everything else is 100% and this is the only non-translated part so it sorta ruins it when you scroll down and see everything.&lt;br /&gt;
Thanks again to all the translators and editors! --[[User:Mufarasu|Mufarasu]] 13:31, 16 June 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

If it&#039;s removed. It could be more easily forgotten or shelved indefinitely. And besides, the next volume is coming out within a month, and there are other side stories you still haven&#039;t seen translated. Patience is a virtue.

The anime ep1 was... AWESOME! They really stuck to the story, and now, since I saw the ending of ep 1 I can say for sure that the anime will encompass Vol 1, 2 and Aria at the very least. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  15:09, 7 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

The music is done by Yuki Kajiura. YUKI KAJIURA man! Her works are EPIC. You could practically feel the fear and desperation in the air as well as Kirito&#039;s determination to live. AWESOME! [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - --[[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  15:13, 7 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

Yeah. It really is. I can&#039;t wait for the next one. It was so excruciatingly painful the last few hours before it came online. And yet, it was worth the wait.

Hold on, the anime will be going for about 26 episodes, with one episode per week, holy crap that&#039;s half a year, we need to wait half a year to see the end! [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] - [[User_talk:Draeke|Talk]] - 02:16, 13 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Better than having the story butchered or cut short in the middle. I&#039;ve always thought 12-13 eps was too little. Besides, the wait will make it all the more worthwhile. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  12:59, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Very true, I feel that if they released them all at once, I would die before I got to watch any. Although, I am actually quite worried, mainly about the few disconnects in the story, sure they have a chance to correct them, but I want things to progress along with the novels, such as Asuna, I have this bad feeling that they are going to try to get them together right away, which I believe would make things worse. Also the others, if they try to make a harem ending, or some kind of ending where it is unclear who Kazuto ends up with, that will piss me off. Waiting avidly for the new episode.

&lt;br /&gt;
Urgh. Well, ep 2 is okay, I guess. But I don&#039;t like the fact that they removed so much. It&#039;s like the depth of the story has been filled in till the plot becomes shallow (kinda like how one fills in a perfectly good water well).

I&#039;m proficient enough in &#039;&#039;&#039;verbal&#039;&#039;&#039; japanese. Plus it helps to read the novel. Damn it&#039;s like they summarized the whole side story. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  14:28, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Really? Dang, I had thought they would spend at least three to four episodes on Aria, but you seem to be implying that they end it in one, maybe two. [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] - [[User_talk:Draeke|Talk]] - 14:32, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sorry to burst your bubble... but they ended Aria in one ep. And they cut out a lot of stuff. This is why I hate story butchering. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  14:38, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wow, well, based off of this pace, they may very well include volumes 3 and 4, well, I&#039;ll watch it no matter what, but I hope they keep to the story. [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] - [[User_talk:Draeke|Talk]] - 14:46, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There&#039;s no point if the anime is a mere summarization of the LN! It&#039;s like draining the juice out of an orange and forcing others to eat just the soft inner-skin. Well... it was okay for those who haven&#039;t read the LN especially Kirito&#039;s really cool part, but I don&#039;t like it that they cut all the rest of the plot (don&#039;t worry I&#039;m not gonna spoil it). If you squeeze the plot too much it ruins it. Sigh, and they stuck to the plot with Accel World so I was looking forward and hoping... Well lets hope they do better next ep. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  14:57, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I have not seen the episode yet, so I can not say too much, but remember that Accel World had some things that were missing as well, not so much the plot, but things that helped pull things together. [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] - [[User_talk:Draeke|Talk]] - 15:02, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And there is a point, and the point is the orange, it is the taste of the orange, the feel of the orange, the experience of eating the orange, whether it be juice, fruit, or some viscous substance consisting of orange, orange is orange, and it tastes like orange. [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] - [[User_talk:Draeke|Talk]] - 15:07, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
True for the first. False for the second. The inner skin of an orange itself doesn&#039;t taste like orange you know. I&#039;m talking about that thin white skin you see after you peel off the thick outer orange colored skin. You know, the one that holds the inner juiciness together. Besides, I&#039;m saying it&#039;s okay. It&#039;s just that I don&#039;t like the fact that they removed all that good stuff. You&#039;ll know what I&#039;m talking about when the subs are out. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  15:14, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Alright, I was just trying to get my point across, I will be sure to watch it, and I may be disappointed, but I also might not, who knows? And for that second one, the white stuff does taste like orange, at least a little bit. [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] - [[User_talk:Draeke|Talk]] - 15:20, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Like drops from a full bottle, true. And don&#039;t worry, I understand. Soon, you&#039;ll understand what I&#039;m talking about as well. I&#039;ll explain in detail once the subs are out. That way you won&#039;t get spoiled and can look forward to it. The ep 2 is good, but it could have been much better. That&#039;s my stance. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  15:37, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Personnaly , I think Aria was made in the anime and cut in that way just to help the new comers with SAO to understand more about Kirito and not to give the whole SS scenario. 	[[User:Eldivah|Eldivah]] 16:05, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hmm. Come to think of it. That might be it. I mean there was a slight conflict between the stories of the Aria SS and the main story aka volume 1. See a few sections above if you want to know/be spoiled. I&#039;ll explain after the sub is out, but if you take into account what was needed to be done to fix that discrepancy then. Yes, I see. If it&#039;s that reason then it&#039;s alright somewhat, I guess. But there are a few parts that didn&#039;t need to be removed even if that were the case. Still, I&#039;m warming up to the ep 2 now. I suppose time heals all wounds isn&#039;t an exaggeration after all.

I will agree to that as well, and a question, did they include Argo as well in episode 2? Because she is one of my favorite characters. [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] - [[User_talk:Draeke|Talk]] - 16:29, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Do I? Probably not, I suppose if I did want to know right away I would have just watched the raw to see if her name came up anywhere, so don&#039;t say anything, and when are the subs coming? [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] - [[User_talk:Draeke|Talk]] - 16:45, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Wow, that was something else, yes, content was thrown out, Diabel was not as bad as he was in the novel, and Kirito was awesome, but mainly when he was berating the other beta testers, that laugh, wonderful, that was awesome, Egil is cool, I could very easily see the foundation that they put for the future, and finally, holy crap, they are jumping straight to Red-Nosed Reindeer? That is a massive jump. And poor Argo, completely cast aside. [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] - [[User_talk:Draeke|Talk]] - 17:38, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
See. And besides, Red nosed reindeer was next chronologically. I mean Rondo and Crescendo aren&#039;t completely published yet. Well there&#039;s not much in Reindeer so let&#039;s hope they don&#039;t cut things out this time. At least cutting down Kirito and Asuna&#039;s time in Aria serves to address the problem I mentioned in [[Talk:Sword_Art_Online#It&#039;s weird]]. But why&#039;d they cut down the whole plot Diabel cooked up along with Argo&#039;s scenes? I wanted to see Kiriemon at least. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  17:51, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I agree completely, but I also thoroughly enjoyed that episode. Aria did have a really deep story, and they just brushed over it. Oh well, still good, lets hope that they don&#039;t just kill everyone off in the Black Cats of the Full Moon immediately, and keep them around for at least one episode before they die. [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] - [[User_talk:Draeke|Talk]] - 18:03, 14 July 2012 (CDT) (That sounds pretty awful, I know, but no other real way to say it)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think that&#039;s pretty simple , letting the plot of Diabel and Argo must introduce a friend character to the main one , but never use him again , that&#039;s a big problem for the public, next , the plot of Diabel about the Anneal Blade will just drag a lot of questions if they don&#039;t add the whole story about the quest to obtain it , explain the whole thing about the Beta-Test , why Diabel knows of Kirito etc , and then that will be 5 episodes of things unrelated to the main plot or to Kirito&#039;s mental state and settings [[User:Eldivah|Eldivah]] 17:59, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
That might be pretty hard to handle a perspective drawing with a cloak ,how to put it , if she was just wearing a normal outfit or if the rapier was outside the cloak , we won&#039;t have this strange feeling , but , they had to draw it like the rapier comming across the cloak and this ended by having the impression of the rapier being stabbed into Asuna instead.

&amp;quot;Red-Nosed Reindeer&amp;quot; will get only 1 ep and after thatcomes &amp;quot;The Black Swordsman&amp;quot; with one ep, too. [[User:BlackP|BlackP]] 19:09, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Umm, okay, where did you learn about this? And if so, then how the heck do they compress Red-Nosed Reindeer into one episode, I could see that stretch three or four episodes. [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] - [[User_talk:Draeke|Talk]] - 19:16, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I couldn&#039;t, if they did ALL of Aria (granted they took some stuff out) in one episode then doing the Red-Nosed Reindeer is more than doable in one episode. I wonder tho if they will do the Black Cats portion and the revival portion separate or together, since they could do it as a current event or as a flashback. That said since it seems they are going with one episode for everything like the Murder Case in episode 5 and Sicilia story in episode 4, then its likely they are gonna use the second half for ALO, which all things considering isn&#039;t that bad. I wouldn&#039;t want a full series for ALO (considering its the worst arc imo) and the ending is more conclusive then the end of the Aincard arc.

Tag my name? In any case i got my information from episode titles, i was told this from a friend but i have no reason to doubt it as i knew the episode 3 title was Red-Nosed Reindeer since before episode 1, episode 4 is supposedly Black Swordsman and such and such. As for the timeline, the anime is simply going chronologically based of the novels events, since after all considering the way volume 1 and 2 are its best to do it chronologically, i&#039;m just curious as to how they are going to use flashbacks as they could see animate &amp;quot;First Day&amp;quot; but as a flashback.

I copied his user data as well as the post time/date from history and added it. And duh, there is a high chance of volume 2 stories&#039; episode conversions being named after their chapters.

== Question about Frequency of releases ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m just wondering, what&#039;s the general frequency of the releases?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:I um... watched the first episode of SAO anime, and then I suddenly flung myself to read all the translated LN for SAO... and just finished reading everything except for volume 10 (untranslated), some of the lower sidestories, and material editions...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::that said, I&#039;m just wondering...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::Given that the releases have been in the order of - April, August, December (for 2 2/3 years) and then switched suddenly to february, July...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::am I correct in deducing the approximate date of Volume 11 is around December(2012)-February (2013) then?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::::Personally, I think it will be closer to February of 2013, but hey, who knows, it is kind of tough to project a solid timeline, so I really can&#039;t say when I think it will be. [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] - [[User_talk:Draeke|Talk]] - 18:02, 12 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

== Adding Reference? ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While I was translating SAO into Vietnamese version, I happened to find out that the name of Klein&#039;s guild has a meaning behind it (it actually refers to a way of commanding army of Takeda Shingen), so I wanna add a specific reference for it (I get this info from a book, and haven&#039;t found any website mention it, so I guess I&#039;ll just write it down). But do I need a permission to do that? And if I do, where can I get it? I have also checked the RAW to make sure Kanjis are correct anw. Sorry if this question doesn&#039;t make sense, I don&#039;t really know much abt how a project here work. [[User:Sozuoka|Sozuoka]] - [[User_talk:Sozuoka|Talk]]&lt;br /&gt;

:Translator has total control over the work he/she is working on, you can decide whether to put a reference note not present in English version on your own without having to ask for permission. There is 0 reference in original JP version and English translators added them in at the places they felt the need anyway. -- [[User:BeginnerXP|BeginnerXP]] - [[User_talk:BeginnerXP|Talk]] 08:58, 24 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

Is anyone here planning to work on Progressive Vol 1? I recently got my ordered copy, and as expected it covers from Aria to Rondo, so I understand if there&#039;s a lack of incentive to translate it considering that the Aria SS has already been translated here and Pryun is still translating Rondo. However, while the Progressive chapters seem to stick pretty close to the original web versions, there are still clear differences, as evidenced by how Aria in Progressive is divided into 15 parts instead of the 20 in web version and Rondo has 14 instead of 40. (Rondo is still about 300 pages long though, so I&#039;m not sure if the author just reorganized it or not.) I was just wondering how the issue was going to be dealt with.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Also, if there are plans to eventually work on Progressive, could I add a sub-section for it on the main page and upload the illustrations I scanned from vol 1? (Admittedly, they&#039;re not the best quality, but I think they&#039;re more than good enough until someone is able to provide a better version.) --[[User:Eternal Dreamer|Eternal Dreamer]] ([[User talk:Eternal Dreamer|talk]]) 21:39, 19 October 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

::You can do it the IPA way, like this: London /ˈlʌndən/ -Anon&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::That won&#039;t be completely accurate. English and Japanese have different ways to pronouncing certain sounds like T, D, etc. Furthermore, few people know the phonetic alphabet in it&#039;s entirety and certainly not those with English as second alphabet. Better to sound it out for them. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  08:03, 19 June 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Most names should be straightforward in pronunciation, I assume the names with issues are Lyfa and Sinon? In that case:&lt;br /&gt;
* Lyfa - Ree-fa in JP version, but English changed R to L so Lee-fa is acceptable, just not Lai-fa.&lt;br /&gt;
* Sinon - Shi-non, just like her real name Shino.&lt;br /&gt;
* Eugeo - Yoo-gee-o.&lt;br /&gt;

==Phantom Bullet: Chapter 7==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m going to point this out here and hopefully the Admin, Supervisor or one of the translators can clear up my confusion. Volume 4&#039;s story ends with &amp;quot;Chapter 7&amp;quot; and Volume 5&#039;s story begins with &amp;quot;Chapter 7&amp;quot;. Is this officially on purpose, as in the way it&#039;s printed? Or is this just a &amp;quot;oops&amp;quot; from whomever posted the Volumes? I&#039;ve never noticed a split story sharing Chapter numbers before, that&#039;s why I&#039;m asking. -- [[User:Fallton13|Fallton13]] 00:41, 05 November 2012 (EDST)&lt;br /&gt;

Well, that&#039;s his translations, he has the right to take them down and now I can understand why, too.

== Notes on {Alfheim Online} Norse Mythology References ==&lt;br /&gt;
Hey,As most of you have probably figured out, &amp;quot;Alfheim online&amp;quot; is basically one big reference to Norse Mythology. Therefore, I will put in a few definitions/explanations. Note that the Norse viking raiders used a completely different runic system (that&#039;s the proper term for &amp;quot;alphabet&amp;quot;), so spellings are rough. I have also changed the spellings of some words used to be closer to what I think is proper.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. &amp;quot;Alfheim&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Alf&amp;quot; is a shortened version of &amp;quot;Alfar&amp;quot;, which is the Norse version of elves. Norse elves have characteristics that are very similar to fairies from other mythologies/folktales, therefore &amp;quot;alfar&amp;quot; can be interpreted as either elf or fairy. &amp;quot;heim&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;heimr&amp;quot; means world or realm.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. &amp;quot;Yģģdrasil&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
In Norse mythology, the &amp;quot;Yģģdrasil&amp;quot; (meaning &amp;quot;Odin&#039;s Horse&amp;quot;, &#039;Yģģu&#039; being another name for Odin. pronounce &#039;ģ&#039; with a rasping sound) was a friggin&#039; huge tree at the center of the earth, the roots of which held the whole place together. Curled around the roots of the world tree was this friggin&#039; huge dragon called the &amp;quot;niddhoģ&amp;quot;. The Niddhoģ gnawed at the base of the tree and once it succeded, &amp;quot;Ragnarök&amp;quot; would occur (see below).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3. &amp;quot;Ragnarök&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
Basically, end of the world. World is encased in fire and ice, blah blah blah (wouldn&#039;t the fire just melt the ice then get put out by the resulting water, causing nothing to happen?). After the world is encased in fire and ice, Odin blows the crap out of it. Then he makes a new world tree and a new Earth, and the whole lot happens again.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
4. &amp;quot;Aesir&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;Æsir&lt;br /&gt;
Basically, the norse gods. Means &amp;quot;elevated ones&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5. &amp;quot;Odin&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;Óòin&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
King of the Æsir. Presumably, went to some well to drink, then was told that if he drank from the well, he would lose an eye but gain infinite wisdom. And he did. His job description is basically &amp;quot;Implement Ragnarök and beat the crap out of giants. Repeat.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6. &amp;quot;Thor&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;Þòrr&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
Lightning Æsir. Enjoys blowing up giants. Has a big ol&#039; friggin&#039; hammer called Mjölnir.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7. &amp;quot;Thyrm&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;Þyrm&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
King of the giants. Likes killing stuff, especialy the æsir. He fails at it. Dies a lot and comes back later. Mostly the Norse myths have to do with Odin or Thor beating the tar out of him, again and again and again. This is the kind of stuff Vikings like to hear, I guess.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
8. &amp;quot;Freyja&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;Freyyá&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
Goddess of love, sex, and killing/death (So in other words, the Viking&#039;s favorite mythological character). Also Odin&#039;s wife (Man that sucks, Klein! Better luck next time). Creator and leader of the Valykries (Really pretty women that sweep up dead vikings and take them to Valhalla, a place with infinite food and access to Jötunheimr, so they can pretty much eat, kill, and hang out with pretty women for eternity. Vikings like these people a lot too.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
9. &amp;quot;Jötunheimr&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
Land of the giants, literally. Þyrm and his minions are found here. The æsir and all dead vikings go here to kill giants forever. One of the Vikings&#039; favorite places.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think that sums it up. If there&#039;s anything I forgot that was mentioned somewhere in Alfheim Online, please look it up and edit it in or leave an edit asking for definitions.&lt;br /&gt;
Also sorry for messed up editing causing this post to appear twice. Gomen!&lt;br /&gt;

:Two minor notes:  1.  The Norse Mythology References section seems to be doubled above/below itself.  2.  Most sections look accurate, but regarding &#039;After the world is encased in fire and ice, Odin blows the crap out of it. Then he makes a new world tree and a new Earth, and the whole lot happens again.&#039; (from section 3, about Ragnarök):  isn&#039;t Odin killed by Fenrir in Ragnarök?  (Before being avenged by his son.)  And wasn&#039;t the Earth made by the frost giants Bergelmir and his wife, out of Ymir&#039;s body?  I unfortunately don&#039;t see where the ideas of cycling Ragnaröks or Odin as an eternal god of creation come from.  -[[User:Multipartite|Multipartite]] ([[User talk:Multipartite|talk]]) 17:27, 14 April 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

== About the alicization character names........ ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I prefer the earlier ones(Ronie, Tizei, Solterina, etc.) than the new ones(Ronye, Tiezé, Soltiliena,etc.) since the former looks more natural, especially of Ronie&#039;s.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:Well, the current spellings are apparently more accurate in terms of pronunciation. I&#039;ll be honest, when I first read &amp;quot;Ronie&amp;quot;, in my head I heard &amp;quot;Ronny&amp;quot;. As for the &amp;quot;look&amp;quot; of the names, that&#039;s only a side-affect of having read one first, and then looking at the other. That&#039;s pretty subjective.

I have a question... Isn&#039;t most of what&#039;s within the &amp;quot;Side Stories&amp;quot; section part of the Web version?&lt;br /&gt;

So shouldn&#039;t these be included as being part of the &amp;quot;Web Version&amp;quot; section?&lt;br /&gt;

== Bullet Lines ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m an editor for the English SAO wiki and recently published 2 new articles for both Bullet Circles and Bullet Lines. However, I had a couple of questions to ask. 1.The terms &amp;quot;Bullet Circle&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;bullet Line&amp;quot; were separate in volume 5, but are more or less merged in volume 6. Is this the case in the original or was this caused by different translators working on the 2 volumes? 2. We&#039;ve had a little dispute over how the sniper advantage actually works. Some of us interpret it as &amp;quot;The Bullet Line does not appear at all for the sniper&#039;s first shot&amp;quot;, while others interpret it as &amp;quot;Players can&#039;t see a sniper&#039;s first Bullet Line because they need to know where to look for it first&amp;quot;. Could you please confirm which of these is true? Thank you --[[User:Gsimenas|Gsimenas]] ([[User talk:Gsimenas|talk]]) 05:42, 19 May 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

:I&#039;m not the original translators, but for the first point, I took a look at the source and, yes, there were a few parts where &amp;quot;Bullet Lines&amp;quot; were supposed to have been &amp;quot;Bullet Circles&amp;quot;.

:For the second point, I don&#039;t think even they would be able to sort that out for you - it doesn&#039;t seem like the kind of thing you can clarify by retranslating, if you get what I mean. Personally, I think it&#039;s &amp;quot;The system doesn&#039;t show the target the sniper&#039;s first Bullet Line &#039;&#039;at all&#039;&#039;&amp;quot; rather than &amp;quot;Players can&#039;t see a sniper&#039;s first Bullet Line because they need to know where to look for it first&amp;quot;, and I waved Death Gun&#039;s dodge off as either already knowing where she was because he saw her while using his invisibility cloak, or that &amp;quot;Hypersense&amp;quot; skill (Kirito dodged Death Gun&#039;s own first shot, remember?). Though, this doesn&#039;t really explain Sinon&#039;s own comment about checking through the system, unless it was just a &amp;quot;mind scrambling for answers&amp;quot; thing... -[[User:AKAAkira|Akira]] ([[User talk:AKAAkira|talk]]) 22:44, 23 May 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

::Thank you for clearing that inconsistency out :) . And guess we&#039;ll just have to stick with an assumption on how that system works. Unless the anime gets another sequel and we can get visual proof on whether they can see the Bullet Line or not :D (though even in this case it&#039;s not a 100% guarantee that they will depict the concept in an unambiguous way)--[[User:Gsimenas|Gsimenas]] ([[User talk:Gsimenas|talk]]) 14:57, 29 May 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

How many volumes will the Alicization arc have (goind at a rate of 2 chapters per volume)? It&#039;¡s by far the longest arc. --[[User:Kemm|Kemm]] ([[User talk:Kemm|talk]]) 14:22, 26 May 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

== Chapter 4 inconsistencies ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As far as I understand, the chapter begins on the 6th of March/3rd Month, however, the graduation contest that is supposed to take place just 2 days later at the end of the chapter it is said to take place &amp;quot;At the end of March—&amp;quot;. Also &amp;quot;Eugeo and I would be taking part in the advancement exams for elite swordsmen next month.&amp;quot;; &amp;quot;That&#039;s because we were the top 12 students during the promotion exam at the end of the month, and our future roles as elite swordsmen trainees were confirmed.&amp;quot; - are these exams supposed to be separate, because I can&#039;t understand how they can say that their positions as elite swordsmen are already guaranteed when the exam is only going to take place later that month? --[[User:Gsimenas|Gsimenas]] ([[User talk:Gsimenas|talk]]) 14:50, 29 May 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

== Something strange on the Android App ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Not 100% sure this is the right place for this, but...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There is something strange going on with this LN series in the Android app. The &#039;Cradle of the Moon&#039; Side Story chapter(s) is listed a total of 6 times under three separate headings of &#039;Side Stories&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Similarly, I have two header listings for &#039;Sword Art Online: Material Editions&#039;, 3 for &#039;Volume 1&#039; (two of which seem to be Progressive, the other just has a chapter called &#039;Enlarge&#039; which doesn&#039;t seem to contain any data) and a total of 5 &#039;Side Stories&#039; headers. The 12 main headers (LNs 1-12) seem to be fine, as do all of the other LNs I have marked as Favourites in the app.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Anyone got any ideas/fixes?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It&#039;s what happens when people play around with how the sections are listed. The old listing persist because the App downloads and stores the information in a cache, but the &#039;new&#039; listing also pop up showing as duplicates. The easiest fix is to purge the volume cache (touch and hold) then refresh the volume. You could even do this to the entire LN listing from your watch list and run an update check to pick up how things are listed now. Oh...also don&#039;t forget to sign your posts. Helps track who is having these problems in case someone on the dev team wants to talk about it. [[User:Unknownadd|Unknownadd]] ([[User talk:Unknownadd|talk]]) 21:35, 15 June 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Sorry about not signing, but since I&#039;m not registered here yet I wasn&#039;t sure it would help anyway. ;)&lt;br /&gt;
:Is there somewhere that I can make suggestions for the app? I&#039;ve just used the Options version of &#039;clear novel cache&#039;, since doing it on a volume-by-volume basis didn&#039;t seem to work, and it wiped out EVERYTHING - My favourites, &#039;read&#039; chapters, everything, so now I have to try and remember what I have read and what I haven&#039;t, what I was planning to read, etc... seems a little excessive. ~AerosAtar&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Volume 12+ Translation? ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I don&#039;t want to sound impatient, but has volume 12 been put on hiatus? I remember volume 10 and 11 being translated at a fast and steady pace, but 12 hasn&#039;t even had a word translated for 2 months.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Tap is translating vol 12, You can check it out on his blog.&lt;br /&gt;
Blog&#039;s link is on his profile. He will upload it to baka-tsuki once translation and major editing is completed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Exactly. now, let&#039;s drop with the &#039;how&#039;s TL status doing?&#039; questions please..&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

Yes, is volume 13 translations progressing? I can&#039;t see any (translators&#039;) name next to the volume 13 chapters in the &#039;Registration&#039; page. I&#039;m not impatient either, but please tell us where you&#039;re up to. Thanks :) --[[User:Casare|Casare]] ([[User talk:Casare|talk]]) 05:36, 16 October 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Well, the project is likely to be discontinued soon. However, Volume 13 is being translated by tap (and he&#039;s about half way though, too.) You can read them on his blog, if you wish. They&#039;re not here on Baka-Tsuki, because he usually takes some time to edit and fix up errors, before posting them here. [[User:Rage|Rage]] ([[User talk:Rage|talk]]) 08:14, 16 October 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Do you know if Yen Press has a good reputation of accurate translations, works fast and won&#039;t be likely to drop the project? If B-T&#039;s going to drop it, might as well know how fast they release each volume. --[[User:Casare|Casare]] ([[User talk:Casare|talk]]) 16:32, 16 October 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
AFAIK reputation is normal (Spice and Wolf), so 3-4 volumes per year are expected. More information can be found on forum [[User:Xaliuss|Xaliuss]] ([[User talk:Xaliuss|talk]]) 03:23, 17 October 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

== Raious Antinous ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I doubt anyone will argue with the conjecture that the eldest son of a 3rd class noble family, Raious Antinous, is a huge dick.&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;d like to point out the significance of his second name, Antinous.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For those of you who&#039;ve read the Oddysey, by Homer (being the sequel to the Iliad), you will understand immediately what I&#039;m talking about.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the Odyssey, Antinous is a character who is attempting to secure Odysseus&#039; bride, Penelope, for himself. Odysseus is assumed to be dead at this time. Antinous is the son of a high-ranking noble who is attempting to marry Penelope, and it is insinuated that, given the chance, he would attempt to rape her. He gets duly killed by Odysseus, who is understandably angry. Actually Odysseus kills him along with several HUNDRED other suitors (BADASS ALERT). ANNNNYways...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Anyone else notice the similarity? Cause i do.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Number of volumes ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;ve noticed over the past week that updaters can&#039;t agree on how many volumes:  Some people update it to 13 and then someone comes in behind them and reverses the update... I&#039;ve seen this happen at least three times this month so far.  I don&#039;t want to start an update war or anything, but I think there ARE 13 volumes now in the main series (not even counting the SAO Progressive): there are certainly 13 volumes listed in section 5... or are we not counting volume 13 since it&#039;s release date is next month?  [[User:Zehd|Zehd]] ([[User talk:Zehd|talk]]) 23:48, 11 July 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think number of currently published volumes must be present, and it will be updated after release date. Looking at this number any user can estimate length of the series and translation progress, other numbers can be misleading.

&lt;br /&gt;
Bloody Yen Press. Now I&#039;ll never read the ending. If they finish translation at all, it will take about 3-4 or so years before they catch up with B-T... I so hope there will be still some &#039;underground&#039; translation going -_- [[User:Antanaru|Antanaru]] ([[User talk:Antanaru|talk]]) 08:01, 11 September 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

Shhh, keep it to yourself. There are a few who are not taking down volume 13 and are continuing though they will be removing them as they come out in the Americas. [[User:All Nighter94|All Night]] ([[User talk:All Nighter94|talk]]) 10:49, 11 September 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;ve noticed more of the the first couple of volumes have disappeared in advance of the licensed volume release, and its reached the point of the first 6 volumes having been taken down. Is there some kind of pattern to this, like a schedule for which volumes are removed when? [[User:Madoka2029|Madoka2029]] ([[User talk:Madoka2029|talk]]) 22:11, 16 December 2013 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

One stairway connects each floor to the previous and succeeding floor, and all of them are in dangerous labyrinth zones where monsters wander about. Players in this world rely on one weapon as they run past them, find the way to the upper floors, and take down strong guardian monsters, single-mindedly aiming for the top of the castle. Aside from battling with monsters, there are many scopes of play from manufacturing like smithing, leathercraft and sewing, to hunting and cuisine, to music.

Quick comment on your translation for ALO. While I haven&#039;t seen any official English translation for its name, the Japanese Wikipedia calls it Alfheim Online. Personally, I agree with it since it follows the Mythology theme, with Álfar meaning elves in Norse Mythology, making Alfheim mean Elves&#039; (Alf) Home (Heim). The reason I think it follows the Mythology theme is that I believe Yggdrasil makes an appearance (I couldn&#039;t find where I read this, and I have bad memory at best, so possibly wrong), Kirito&#039;s class becomes a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spriggan Spriggan], Lyfa (or whatever it ends up being) is a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sylph Sylph], and Yui is a Navigation Pixie&amp;lt;!--Quite the specific race if you ask me--&amp;gt;. Hope this helps. ~EnigmaticRepose&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:In the Japanese raws of volume 3 (page 61), the name is written in English: &amp;quot;ALfheim Online&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;!--Yeah, REALLY specific, although I guess ALO&#039;s like that. I wonder if thats the same Yui from vol 2. I wonder what she was doing in there. *hint hint* lol.--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I wouldn&#039;t have known that I haven&#039;t read much and I know nothing about the Mythology theme, anyway Vaelis has indicted its proper English name. Mind putting the link of the jap wiki here? - --[[User:KuroiHikari|KuroiHikari]] 12:11, 8 February 2010 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

The info page for the PGM Hécate II may need to be re-done.  I see some potentially wacky wording, and some improper terminology.

Image:Sword Art Online Vol 07 -008.jpg|OSS &amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;Its formal name is 《Original Sword Skills》. An improved version of the 《Sword Skills》 system of the now defunct Sword Art Online, implemented in 《Alfheim Online》. Each weapon has its own 《Skill Tree》. Brought forth drastic change to 《ALO》 which was previously dominated by long-range 《Magic》.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;Different from the 《Sword Skills》 in 《SAO》, OSS are not skills predefined by the system but rather skills that can be invented and registered by the player. However, in order to register such skills, players are required to perform them &amp;quot;without system support at a speed normally impossible without system assist&amp;quot;. This somewhat contradictory strict requirement is the main reason why there&#039;s only few players who posses OSS.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;The OSS system supports a function known as 《Sword Skill Inheritance》. Players who successfully register an OSS are able to pass down a single-use 《Skill Manual》 to other players. Because the development of an OSS is extremely difficult, 《Skill Manuals》 for OSS, especially those that contain over-5-hits special moves, are currently the most expensive items in ALO.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

:Regarding the &amp;quot;color tweak&amp;quot;, I don&#039;t think it was necessary, the colors look out of place. IMHO, translations should stick to giving the same experience as the native speaker would have, which includes not changing the illustrations beyond replacing the text. I think the readers should be able to figure out who is saying what by themselves. - anon (for now) - 00:25, 30 September 2012 (GMT+2)&lt;br /&gt;

::Sorry, but I&#039;d like to help the readers as much as I can, &#039;&#039;without changing too much&#039;&#039;.

:::The fact you only did it for this picture is what makes it look out of place ^^; As a suggestion, maybe you could make the colors less saturated? Like #a82f38 for Liz and #734669 for Kirito? That way it shouldn&#039;t stick out too much, but still help people distinguish between the different people.

But I can&#039;t do that with pictures now, can I? Anyways thanks for the j-text. I just put it through and found that it was &amp;quot;mada mada&amp;quot;.

::I meant that I would have expected someone familiar with Japanese to recognize the phrase from one of its common translations and, based off the context, realize there might be a more appropriate choice in a similar way to how Pryun was thinking.  This would be independent of knowing what the original text was.  Being able to recognize this sort of thing can really improve your effectiveness as an editor as you would be better able to let the translators know of a possible mistake.

:::How could I when I need to romanjify in order to understand? I guess you overestimated my abilities. The phrase fit the circumstances, even if it was wrong. And whenever I sense a mistake I immediately ask for the j-text, run it through google translate, check both the romanji and the translation (Just checking the translation isn&#039;t good enough but the romanji helps a lot), examine the sentence in both languages and then give suggestions. I&#039;ve helped translators a lot via this method. I do intend to learn written Japanese as well. But pretty soon I&#039;ll probably be starting my Masters. So it&#039;ll have to be delayed.

::::Then I recommend you to spend a bit of time to learn Hiragana &amp;amp; Katakana, since you like anime &amp;amp; manga, knowing how to read both kana helps greatly.

&lt;br /&gt;
:If you read manga, especially those shounen manga, all kanji will have hirakana characters (furigana) telling readers how it&#039;s read, it helps a lot to use that reading to look up the kanji, rather than tracking the kanji via radicals or stroke counts. Learning kanji properly would require a large amount of time (years), so it&#039;s entirely down to each person&#039;s determination. But kana is simple enough like A-B-C, so it should be a good foundation to have for anyone who enjoys Japanese media. -- [[User:BeginnerXP|BeginnerXP]] - [[User_talk:BeginnerXP|Talk]] 10:44, 7 August 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

Judging by everything, it should be the scene in Interlude II, where Kirito hands the bag of pies to Ronie, and tells her to share it with her class mates. If you can&#039;t translate the whole thing, try translating bits and pieces to get an idea of where in the text this is.

Still, It would be nice to just have linked to the pdf for those that wanted it, since it was already done and all, instead of taking it up upon yourself to, uh, horriblify the text.

:::Yes, It&#039;s pronounced Tize.

&lt;br /&gt;
Quoting: &#039;&#039;If you mean the text in volume 7, the image quality is too poor for me to want to spend my time on. But for volume 8, I already did all of them, just I didn&#039;t add them to wiki, you can get the text from my SAO8 PDF I post in forums and edit the images accordingly, you also might need to correct some mistakes as I didn&#039;t want to bother Pryun to look at them with his busy schedule. -- BeginnerXP - Talk 05:22, 7 June 2012 (CDT)&#039;&#039; ([[User_talk:Zero2001/Archive_1#SAO_Pics|Thank God I archive my talk page discussions]]). So I do kinda have an okay to at least cross-check and edit. Besides, considering the amount of work done during scanlation, other than text translation (ie: cleaning, leveling, cloning, etc) I don&#039;t think it&#039;s unfair especially since I&#039;m not taking the credit for the translation, only the editing and photoshopping. Anyways, Teh Ping said this in the history comments: &#039;&#039;Note, this is done by a person called Melannis. I&#039;m really grateful for the help here.

The «Eternal Wall» that divides the city of Centoria starts from the Cathedral, and stretches outward in four directions. Within the highest ruling system «Axion Church» there are officers known as «Integrity Knights», and these knights that maintain the order of the world are the Sacred Task that all the swordsmen of the world aspire to.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;If one passes the entrance exam of the swordsmen training institution «North Centoria Master Sword Academy» in order to aim for the rank of «Integrity Knight», they become a «Beginner Trainee Swordsman» in public. The Trainees train themselves diligently over the period of one year, and at the end of every academy year, they aim for becoming swordsmen of even higher rank during the promotion exam. The final objective of the academy students is to participate in the «Northern Empire Swordsmanship Tournament». Kirito and Eugeo are aiming to win the competition even higher than that, the «Four Empires Unity Tournament» that is the highest swordsmanship tournament in the Human World, where the winners are appointed as honorable «Integrity Knights».&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Notes:&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;lt;s&amp;gt;Not 100% sure on Kirito&#039;s comment, that&#039;s the best I could guess&lt;br /&gt;
*Reason for changing Ronie&#039;s first comment&#039;s comma to exclamation point was since &amp;quot;Wow, really?&amp;quot; seems to be used with too much sarcasm too often these days&lt;br /&gt;
*I&#039;m pretty sure there&#039;s a more eloquent way for Teiza to hint the gesture, but it&#039;s evading me at the moment&lt;br /&gt;
*Since 打ち can mean both &amp;quot;hit&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;reach&amp;quot;, a possible but slightly less likely different interpretation is: &amp;quot;Kirito, if it turns out that my fist can reach you, you don&#039;t have to run away, okay?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
**I peeked at what PROzess translated so far and...well, one word: context. Rather facepalm-worthy. As such, changed Eugeo&#039;s quote. But, Teiza&#039;s quote is somewhat confusing. Unless it&#039;s a case of &#039;&#039;extremely&#039;&#039; liberal context usage, I don&#039;t think she even uses that particular quote in-story. Can someone correct me?&amp;lt;/s&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
***Ronye says that bit, which explains why I didn&#039;t find &#039;&#039;Tiese&#039;&#039; it. And yup, another botched trans.&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;lt;s&amp;gt;Intros of the first pic are the same as the previous volume, except for the second half of Eugeo&#039;s&amp;lt;/s&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
*Also, not quite sure if it&#039;s &amp;quot;Elite Swordsman Trainee&amp;quot; or just &amp;quot;Elite Swordsman&amp;quot; - but then again, previous volumes had them interchanged, so maybe it doesn&#039;t matter?&lt;br /&gt;
*If anyone wants to dispute my interpretations, here&#039;s a quick dump of all kanji used in the first three pics: 君跳鹿亭優劣味私作口合打解今逃修剣学院上級士助僕君人界秩序守市域統括公理教会&lt;br /&gt;

I know the character descriptions for Kirito, Ronie and Teiza are already technically done in Vol 10, but I thought I&#039;d put up my own translation of them in case anyone wants to use it. (Feel free to comment or suggest changes.) Also, I intend to translate the story description on the fourth page, if nobody minds. --[[User:Eternal Dreamer|Eternal Dreamer]] ([[User talk:Eternal Dreamer|talk]]) 14:39, 22 December 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:Yes, it should be. I didn&#039;t realize it was a name initially, which was why I was so confused. In volume 10 it was translated as &amp;quot;Jumping Deer Inn&amp;quot;, so I&#039;ll go with that for now. -[[User:AKAAkira|Akira]] ([[User talk:AKAAkira|talk]]) 17:14, 24 December 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

Already, the story description is done on the fourth page.

:I don&#039;t know a thing about Japanese, but looking at the Raw images for the last image in both this vol and from vol 10, there&#039;s only one difference in regards to the location texts..

==== Volume 12 ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Image:Sword Art Online Vol 12 - 002-003.jpg|Kirito: Eugeo, I&#039;ll stop the first attack somehow, so it&#039;s your job to get a strike in.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;A young boy lost within the mysterious «Virtual World», Underworld. In order to escape, he is searching for a «System Console».&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Eugeo: —Got it.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;The first inhabitant Kirito met in this world. Became «Elite Swordsman Trainee» at «North Centoria Master Swords Academy» with Kirito.&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Deusolbert Synthesis Seven: To bathe in the fires of this «Flame Bow» should have meant to become purified for two years. I see, it appears you truly possess the skills Knight Eldrie Thirty-one argued you had, despite being criminals.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;An Integrity Knight who uses the «Flame Bow».&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
Image:Sword Art Online Vol 12 - 004-005.jpg|Fanatio Synthesis Two: This is farewell, you young, foolish criminal. The light hidden inside this Heaven-Piercing Sword, I free from its shackles right now! —Release Recollection!&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;The Integrity Knights&#039; Deputy Head Knight who mastered the «Heaven-Piercing Sword».&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Kirito: Uooooh!&lt;br /&gt;
Image:Sword Art Online Vol 12 - 006-007.jpg|Kirito: I&#039;m Swordsman Trainee Kirito, and I want a fair swords match with Miss Changed Knight Alice!&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Alice Synthesis Thirty: —It&#039;s all right, your wicked hearts are such low things that I suppose you may try with that sword of yours.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;An Integrity Knight who wields the «Osmanthus Sword».&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
Image:Sword Art Online Vol 12 - 008.jpg|&#039;&#039;&#039;Central Cathedral&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Located at the middle of Underworld&#039;s «Human World» is its greatest city, «Capital Centoria». At the core of «Capital», the heart of the Human World itself, there exists the pure white superstructure, «Central Cathedral». The tower&#039;s zenith is at a height that peters out into obscurity, and the church&#039;s square grounds are surrounded by high walls; peeking inside is utterly impossible. The supreme body «Axiom Church», governing the Human World from «Central Cathedral», maintain peacekeepers named «Integrity Knights», and these knights that protect the order of the world are what every Trainee Swordsmen in the world yearn to become.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;The Cathedral is built with a hundred floors in all, and the top floor contains a room for the High Priestess.　The middle floors host monks, priests, and so on, and those who conduct the business necessary for the Axiom Church to rule the Human World also live there. On the third floor is an armory, but the fiftieth floor has a utility called «The Great Hall of the Spirit World&#039;s Light»&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Notes:&lt;br /&gt;
*Kirito &amp;amp; Eugeo&#039;s descs borrowed and modified from Eternal Dreamer&#039;s descs from last volume.&lt;br /&gt;
*Not entirely sure Deusolbert&#039;s referring to himself or his bow.&lt;br /&gt;
*熾 turned up &amp;quot;Seraphim&amp;quot; in Google Translate. No idea what&#039;s up with that.&lt;br /&gt;
**熾焰 in Chink can mean something along the lines of &amp;quot;Blazing&amp;quot;. Also, Sky Piercing Sword sounds better than Heaven Piercing Sword to me.&lt;br /&gt;
***Eeh, &amp;quot;Heaven&amp;quot; sounds more flashy to me, when it&#039;s &amp;quot;Heaven Piercing&amp;quot; vs &amp;quot;Sky Piercing&amp;quot;...unless it&#039;s maybe something like &amp;quot;Skysplitter&amp;quot;. -[[User:AKAAkira|Akira]] ([[User talk:AKAAkira|talk]]) 19:45, 3 May 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
*実 has way too many different positive trait translations. &amp;quot;Sincerity&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;truth&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;fidelity&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;faith&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;confidence&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;devotion&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;trust&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;reliance&amp;quot;... I think &amp;quot;purity&amp;quot; works best here, though.&lt;br /&gt;
**From context, it seems like it&#039;s been two years since he last used the bow&#039;s true ability. The bow becomes engulfed in flames when it&#039;s Enhance Armament is activated.&lt;br /&gt;
*I &#039;&#039;think&#039;&#039; いか in this case is supposed to be the 以下 kind. I think.&lt;br /&gt;
*剣筋 stumped me. Pretty sure it&#039;s supposed to be a compound word, but no idea what it entails. I just left it at &amp;quot;sword&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;quot;Superstructure&amp;quot; there isn&#039;t intrinsically correct, but it definitely sounds good - better than &amp;quot;great tower&amp;quot; (which I&#039;m pretty sure is the original meaning) and more accurate than &amp;quot;skyscraper&amp;quot; (especially with the modern image that word draws upon).&lt;br /&gt;
*I&#039;m pretty sure 霞んで見えない basically says &amp;quot;so hazy it can&#039;t be seen&amp;quot;, but that was kinda hard to conform into a &amp;quot;the tower&#039;s zenith is at a height&amp;quot; sentence structure, and I thought &amp;quot;obscurity&amp;quot; covers both the &amp;quot;indistinct&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;lack of ability to see&amp;quot; bases well enough anyway.&lt;br /&gt;
*I think this のぞき　is the 覗き kind?&lt;br /&gt;
*Strictly speaking, 憧れの天職 translates more as &amp;quot;yearn to take as their calling&amp;quot;, but...&amp;quot;yearn to become&amp;quot; is virtually the same meaning.&lt;br /&gt;
*Not entirely sure about 先活. 先 is along the lines of &amp;quot;former&amp;quot; and 活 is basically &amp;quot;lives&amp;quot;...but apparently 活　is a synonym for 生, and 先生 is &#039;&#039;sensei&#039;&#039;. For now, went with the former, since that makes more sense in context.&lt;br /&gt;
*Kanji dump in case someone wants to refute: 初撃止前斬込仮想解熾焔弓炎浴実二年振騎士渡合技咎人操整合若愚天穿剣秘光今枷放副長司修改殿尋常立会所望邪心剣筋試金木犀剣操整合&lt;br /&gt;

Far from perfect. We&#039;re both ESL (English as Second Language) people after all. The good news is that I can do Chinese-English proofreading/editing, the bad news is that tenses are a weakness for me. I&#039;m trying to keep an eye out on other people&#039;s edits and track what kind of things I miss, but if you notice a particular pattern that I fault in please don&#039;t hesitate to fix and/or drop me a note. Also, having more editors is usually a good thing. -- Aorii&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:I should have asked before putting up my rather literal translation up, but is that okay? It has already be reverted though. &lt;br /&gt;
As when I went through the japanese text, some stuff was missing. &lt;br /&gt;
By the way, the tense used is past tense, right? Tenses should be same throughout the novel. -KuroiHikari&lt;br /&gt;

Hello, i was just wondering if you guys would accept another editor here. I have read almost all 9 volumes, and there are always many, MANY grammatical errors and weird literal translations in the text. The translation itself is solid, but it is just really awkward to read. I do really appreciate the work you guys put into this, and I&#039;m not trying to demean or anything, but i think i could contribute greatly to the editing of this novel. I am very proficient in english, and I could probably edit a chapter in 2-3 days, or faster depending on the length of the chapter. If you&#039;ll accept me, you could send me an unedited text from something to test my skills if required. I would be happy to lend a hand to such a great project.

So, I started reading the novels after having watched the anime. I really like it and I appreciate the work, but I think there&#039;s a lot that I could offer as an editor. Besides odd sentence structure, I&#039;ve seen a few misspellings. I know it says on the main page to contact a supervisor if you want to join the project, but I&#039;m not sure how to go about doing that. If someone could help me out, I would appreciate it. --[[User:nVitius|nVitius]] 3:00, 5 January 2013 PST&lt;br /&gt;

==This is REALLY GOOD!!!!==&lt;br /&gt;
I really like this. When I first started reading it sounded like just another virtual reality/MMORPG anime... thing, but now, it looks really cool!&lt;br /&gt;
Please Give us chapter four soon!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:I agree with this fellows statement as well. It sounded dumb at first, but the character&#039;s feel far more realistic than I would have thought. I hope this gets alot of attention. Good luck Sharramon!&lt;br /&gt;

::I like this a lot too. Sounded and is very interesting Very good novel. Please continue...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::Thank you all ^^ I&#039;ve done chap four now! But it&#039;s more of a run through of how the situation was like in Aincrad. The story starts properly from chapter five. I&#039;ll try to translate that as quick as possible too!&lt;br /&gt;
::::I love you&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::::Thanks for the update&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is good! I like the development in chapter 5. Will wait until next update! I look forward to the next chapter, from what I see in the illustration there will be some romance...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Dammit now I want chapter 6... Please give it to us soon!!! PLEASE!!!! And thank you once again for translating this!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::This overwhelming pressure! XD I&#039;m workin&#039; on it! I&#039;ll try and get it up soon but the soonest SHOULD be Thursday but we&#039;ll see!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::Thank you very much for your effort! ^^ Awaiting next update eagerly... You update surprisingly fast^^. Please do not take this as a pressure but as encouragement^^&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is turning into a pretty good response column, and for a nifty reason; SAO is pretty kick ass. All our thanks go out to you, Sharramon, keep up the good work! ps BTW you have the fastest chapter updates I&#039;ve seen in awhile! and as the previous comment mentioned, that isn&#039;t some weird pressure build up, its a compliment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:I agree this is really good, thanks for the translations&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:BTW you have the fastest chapter updates I&#039;ve seen in awhile!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::That&#039;s most probably because this light novel has the shortest chapters that you&#039;ve seen in a while! :D And chap 6 done! Hell yeah!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::Thanks for chapter 6. This is a really good light novel. Can&#039;t wait for the next chapters. I would like to know though when you get volume 2 whether Kirito stays with Asuna after volume 1 or not. Because looking at the covers for volumes 2 and 3 it seems he teams up with other girls.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::::He does stay with her. Book two&#039;s about the past and the third book is about saving her from a game or something by what I gather...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::::Thanks for the info. I was agonizing over the thought that she might have died and he moved on to party with another player.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::::::I shouldn&#039;t say so much! I&#039;m spoiling people!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Seeing the update section.... I&#039;ve realized that I&#039;ve done more than a chap every two days WITHOUT the prologue O.O.....&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:That&#039;s why you&#039;re Sharramon-sama :) thanks for the great releases xD&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::damn! this is like reading Naruto. No, not the storyline, but on the updates... (yours is of course, much faster than the weekly updates) but nonetheless, the suspense, the waiting... it feels the same. Anyway, thank you for the fast updates! SPOILERS!!!!! nuooohh!!!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::oh shit now I&#039;m going to this page regularly just to see if there is any updates..&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
don&#039;t understand third volume images ç.ç aren&#039;t they supposed to have their true form? so why there are non.humans? waiting fro spoileeeers XD&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:You will understand once the translation gets that far. It&#039;s not fun being spoiled. Because you just keep wanting to know more.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You are awesome and so is this book! I know this is a minor point, but semicolons are meant to separate two closely related things that could be sentences by themselves, like the first line of the synopsis. For parts like &amp;quot;...floating castle, &#039;Aincrad&#039;; he distinguished...&amp;quot;, it should really be commas on both sides of Aincrad.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Wooo, I left this for a while and its already this much already XD YAY! Again and again, thank you so much, Sharramon-sama XD&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::Thanks for chapter 14! Too bad there isn&#039;t a picture of Kirito in his KoB uniform =(&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::at first, I thought that SAO is just a .hack&amp;gt;&amp;lt;druaga&amp;gt;&amp;lt;yureka look-a-like... I was wrong. seriously... I&#039;m jealous of Kirito ;_; Sharramon-kakka, you have my deepest gratitude (for your speed-translating). keep up the good work! XD -randompasserby&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
You guys are bloating his persona, he&#039;ll be crowning himself emperor of britannia soon at this pace :p&lt;br /&gt;
:He IS the rightful ruler after all, so that would make sense.&lt;br /&gt;

==Volume Names==&lt;br /&gt;
Both the first and second volumes are called &amp;quot;Aincrad&amp;quot;? Weird...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:That&#039;s how they are named. Take a look at the third colour page for volume 01 and 02. &lt;br /&gt;
{| style=&amp;quot;background:black; color:black&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|They are named after the setting they take place in or so it seems. &lt;br /&gt;

::I know that, I was just commenting on how it was odd.&lt;br /&gt;

:::It all makes sense after reading the descriptions of thos images from volume 3 above.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== So because I couldn&#039;t wait... ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I thought hey why not use ATLAS to translate the raw to at least get a hint of what&#039;s going to happen.&lt;br /&gt;
This did not go well, I mean although the program boasts its amazing accuracy in translating, when I translated the whole novel it didn&#039;t even make sense at all. In fact, a Google online translation did better than the $1,400 program.&lt;br /&gt;
So in conclusion, I decided to patiently wait . . . okay never mind! Please!!!! I can&#039;t wait! where&#039;s the next chapter...&lt;br /&gt;
Thank you for translations, I really appreciate it. I LOVE Sword Art Online!-Jun&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I actually did the same thing, but I could understand like one sentence out of 15, and it also helps if you know what ATLAS translates the names as. I also found a timeline of SAO&#039;s events, and used Rikaichan to skim through it (I probably look for spoilers a little too much on series I really like, and I wasn&#039;t disappointed). Anyway though, I&#039;ve been meaning to ask this: sharramon, are you using official Korean translations or fan translations?&lt;br /&gt;
-Enigma&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Official. I&#039;m translating with the book in my hands.... I&#039;ll have to buy another one. This one&#039;s gotten really dirty XP&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I did as well. Oddly, I can figure out quite much of chapter 5 with it. It hurt my eyes and mind though. It feels like deciphering a code @-@. I decide to quit because the deciphering work reduce the enjoyment in reading it and when I read sharramon-sama&#039;s translation to find out he bits I&#039;m missing, it just won&#039;t as fun since I got to know part of the stroy already.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
@Enigma wait there is Korean translations of Sword Art Online? If there is, where could I get my hands on it? -Jun&lt;br /&gt;
Edit: Oh wait, never mind. I ordered the Korean version through AladdinUS. Can&#039;t wait to read it ^_^ -Jun&lt;br /&gt;

== Historic moment ==&lt;br /&gt;

Just wondering but could it be that Kirito and Asuna get out of SAO in the 1st volume but Asuna gets kidnapped and put into[Alvheim Online]? And then Kirito goes into the game to save her?

If the book version has only three chapters, then our translation should have also only three chapters, since the web version is gone and the book version is working as the translation reference... --[[User:Darklor|Darklor]] 14:38, 11 April 2011 (UCT)&lt;br /&gt;

Ive been studying japanese for quite a while now, and can happily sayim slowly progressing,and as such decided to buy the published version that&#039;s still in japanese, two questions now: one, is it in kanji/furigana? and two if not what level of reading should I know to be able to read it effectively&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== What are we going to do with 16.5 in the full text version? ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Eventually Volume 1 will be finished, and we will do what we always do with a finished volume: make a full text!! But we have this chapter 16.5 complicating the situation. Does it go in? Stay out? Make two versions (what I think is would be best)? Something else? Let&#039;s decide what&#039;s going to happen before the volumes done.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I say make a full text with reference to 16.5 but not actual text...or throw in a link to 16.5 with a dire &amp;quot;read at own disgretion&amp;quot; message.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
-Ence&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think we should make 2 versions of it, SFW and NSFW... XD - RandomPasserBy&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Don&#039;t add it to the full text. I wouldn&#039;t even add it to the volume 1 overview nor to the &amp;quot;forward to..&amp;quot; box, to be honest. 16.5 may be canon, but it is not part of the book. As far as I know, he had this chapter only posted on his back-site without any reference on the front page. [[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] 08:16, 26 February 2010 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
oh yeah, now that you mention it... the book can&#039;t possibly have this chapter...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Considering all the killing, explicit violence that the book has, its already at least 16+ or young adults.. can&#039;t rate something M just because of some cybersex.. -Irec&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wouldn&#039;t it be better to, at least, put a link in the full text to let those who want to read it in the good context be able to read it ?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think a link with a warning would work.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Chapter 16 still links to 16.5... is this intentional or a a side-effect of the nav template? -[[User:Milki|milki]] 03:53, 18 February 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I did not realise there was a chapter 16.5 at all before I came over this... And now that I&#039;ve seen it, I agree that it shouldn&#039;t be put in the full text. What I&#039;m wondering about, though, is if Reki Kawahara really wrote this himself, where it was published and how on earth it came to this site. Oh, and this chapter might be a little hard to notice if you go directly to the full text to read volume 1.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
-&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You know - this is pretty much under the carpet now, but I think this was handled pretty poorly. If 16.5 was not canon, it should have been put under the side stories with an R-18 warning. The author had it on his website with other stories that are up here, so the argument that he didn&#039;t write it is not a very good one. Age appropriate is not good either - R-18 warning as stated, but this site is not an all-ages site to begin with. You have R-18 visual novel projects, Type-Moon&#039;s numerous titles, etc. Some of the posts for removing it were downright confusing: &amp;quot;it left a bad taste in my mouth.&amp;quot; Or &amp;quot;look at what people recognize me for.&amp;quot; I&#039;m sorry, but...what? You didn&#039;t like a chapter, so it should be erased from history? One is going to quit translation of this series because of the &amp;quot;infamy&amp;quot; of it? I know you aren&#039;t in this for public recognition, so why do you care about that? This massive double standard with sexual content is an American value style product that confuses me, but it shouldn&#039;t be influencing what goes up and comes down. We have titles on here that involve graphic descriptions of extreme violence, graphic descriptions of sexual content and innuendo, as well as images of nude people of all ages and violence against them to accompany them. I am really disappointed that management is going down this route, because it&#039;s only a matter of time before other titles get censored or screwed up because of this new standard. - somewhat disappointed and concerned long time reader. --Anonymous&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
In my opinion, this wouldn&#039;t be so much issue if the chapter wasn&#039;t included in volume 1 to begin with, it being up there caused confusion to many readers as they think it&#039;s actually in the published version, I was under that very impression for a while, until I had chance to check the JP book version.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
@anon, it seemed you misunderstood the fact, author really wrote 16.5 and he really put it on his website, but he &#039;&#039;never&#039;&#039; put it along with the web version of Aincrad arc, he made a temporally R-18 section named &#039;Word Gear Reverse&#039; and put 16.5 along with some R-18 stories written by someone else  there. So putting it in volume 1 section is a bad idea, and that&#039;s the reason I was strongly against it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Currently BT has a vague stance about the mature content, there is no rule preventing the mature content to be hosted on wiki, but in forums, the rules clearly stated that posting mature content is not permitted. Maybe the higher ups could discuss about this double standard and come up with a single rules set for both wiki and forums.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On a side note: Why so many complaints about the removal of 16.5 but no one cares that ME1&amp;amp;3 can&#039;t be hosted here? Especially when ME1 is mentioned in both anime &amp;amp; published volumes. Just curious. -- [[User:BeginnerXP|BeginnerXP]] ([[User_talk:BeginnerXP|Talk]]) 08:33, 17 September 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Honestly, I don&#039;t want to shift the blame here nor try to explain myself since I suppose none of you would want to hear me out, so I&#039;ll take responsibility for this. Mature content &#039;&#039;&#039;can&#039;&#039;&#039; be posted on the wiki, but &#039;&#039;&#039;must&#039;&#039;&#039; be labelled with a warning, an R-18 tag. However, this is a different case for the forums, where no one is allowed to post such stuff. If you wonder why there is a different standard for the forums, it&#039;s because the rules for the forums were &#039;copied&#039; from Animesuki...Personally, I don&#039;t believe there&#039;s a need to review it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As for your last paragraph, Beginner, I think you would know the answer...--[[User:Teh Ping|Teh Ping]] ([[User talk:Teh Ping|talk]]) 21:31, 17 September 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I was not trying to shift blame, only point out the issues with said reasoning. I was particularly surprised that Ping said what he did because he always seemed opposed to removing content over anything that didn&#039;t involve content getting licensed or users making unjust profits. Like I said, I just thought it was handled poorly: it should have simply been moved to the side story section and given an R-18 warning. I did not know about other stories being removed, but if they have, I would of course recommend the same action. Removing R-18 content like this just creates needless problems involving content that BT shouldn&#039;t have to deal with. For example, it&#039;s really easy to argue that DxD or Campione should not be hosted because of their content based on this decision (there is not a single warning of R-18 content either.) It is not any of you guys&#039; responsibility to be the parent for children lurking the internet, anyway. It had a warning when I read it last time, and when I came back to re-read SAO, it was gone completely. I do not have any thoughts about the forum; as it is separate from the Wiki, I do not think it is a problem to enforce a different set of rules. On a closing note, please take this less personally, Ping. I am not making you out to be a &amp;quot;bad person&amp;quot; or whatever strange thoughts you&#039;re having. I wanted my thoughts known, but I didn&#039;t want to clog up the forum seeing as it seemed to be a dead issue. While I would want any removed stories to be restored, the management and translators such as yourself are obviously the ones who have the final word. Restricting content because it doesn&#039;t appeal or seem appropriate to (x) audience is a dangerous direction to go for BT though, I feel. Take it easy and thanks for reading. --Anonymous&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
@Beginner, does ME 1 &amp;amp; 3 contain questionable content? All I know is that they are doujins, so might not belong in a LN wiki like BT. Maybe a link might be good instead of no content (which had me assume no work was done on it, up until recently), but thats up to the heads.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
@Teh Ping, I respect you for your decision to take responsibility for the ire of readers on removing the chapter, though I think its not something you have to do (if it was made out of frustration and a wish for the topic to be dropped). Not sure what was the cause of the removal (I&#039;m willing to listen if you have the time to chat),  I cannot help but feel those who complain so much about it, will not or can not see beyond wanting to have everything in one place for their convenience (the internet is a wide place after all). For those stating it affects BT, do realize that even novels on the market are constantly being revised and edited as they are reprinted, to fit the standards of the time. Removing one event which does not have much plot context (unlike the anime...) and is not even part of the published novel is not going to affect anything, and is a weak point for argument. Comparing other LNs to this is even weaker, considering those rarely even reach the level of content shown here (LNs get edited before release as well...) So do consider your argument on insisting you must be able to find it on BT.--[[User:Gabgrave|Gabgrave]] ([[User talk:Gabgrave|talk]]) 01:51, 18 September 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

@Anon, While I don&#039;t read nor watch DxD &amp;amp; Campione, I know for sure that those 2 series are at most R-15 and still can be sold at normal channels in Japan, while 16.5 is in a completely different situation, it&#039;s clearly R-18 and will never be able to sell alongside other light novels even if it&#039;s published. It&#039;s fine if you compared 16.5 to our visual novel projects, but please give a legit example of R-18 light novel hosting here.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
@Gabgrave, ME1&amp;amp;3 are manga written by author himself, their content are clean, and I particularly like ME1 too, you should be able to find them at some online manga reading sites. The reason we can&#039;t hosted them even though they&#039;re both completely scanslated now, is because of its nature, we don&#039;t host manga here unless the script is posted as well (like ME2). The reason is legit and I respect that decision, it&#039;s just funny that the removal of the questionable content caused so much stir within SAO community here, while 2 clean &amp;amp; good legit stories from the same author not being here didn&#039;t raise any question nor request.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
@Beginner, Thanks for the description, I have the links and will be looking them up. I think why people are not commenting is because like me, they see the red links in the page, and assume they are not translated yet. Only if we happen across some comments that make us aware that they do exists already, then we start looking for it.--[[User:Gabgrave|Gabgrave]] ([[User talk:Gabgrave|talk]]) 02:25, 18 September 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

My bad. Mistaken information received. Removed from post.--[[User:Gabgrave|Gabgrave]] ([[User talk:Gabgrave|talk]]) 03:23, 18 September 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Firstly, when I say trying to shift blame, I would refer to the guy who actually took down the page, Vaelis, the admin of the SAO project. On Baka Tsuki, each project can be removed by three groups of people. The translator of the work, the Supervisors, and the admins. Since we&#039;re going to be stuck here for a while, I&#039;ll break it down.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
First, while I said that I didn&#039;t like having 16.5, I respect the fact that it was uploaded. That was why I never demanded for it to be deleted, even though I am vocal against those who wanted it on &#039;&#039;&#039;just to see that Kirito and Asuna have their relationship consummated&#039;&#039;&#039;, which is a completely stupid excuse (note that I don&#039;t say reason here because there was nothing reasonable at all). When I posted &#039;&#039;&#039;in white&#039;&#039;&#039; that I would go unless it was removed, note that it was in jest. Do note that while I am against it being posted, I am neutral against it being removed because the damage had already been done. [http://www.baka-tsuki.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=59&amp;amp;t=3128&amp;amp;start=2040 All the mess can be read from here until the next 5 pages or so] If you had seen my actions during the Volume 9 incident, you would have realized that if I wanted a page to be deleted, I would have just gone ahead to delete all the stuff way back when I joined this project (as a Supervisor), and how I nearly nuked the entire Accel World project here. Now, I really don&#039;t want Vaelis to be blamed for this, but he did delete it after reading through our arguments (on both parties). This is why I say that I will just take all the blame, because if I go on to explain, other people are just going to be implicated as well, (and I&#039;m pretty much...the fall guy on Baka Tsuki at this point). If you&#039;re going to talk about how I had been whining about it affecting my rep, Gabgrave made the mistake I knew was coming from a mile away (before correcting it). No one is trying to be a &#039;parent&#039; here, but I won&#039;t be elaborating on this part because I&#039;m in class right now&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And yes, I am very frustrated that we&#039;re still arguing over when it has been almost 3 months since this was &#039;resolved&#039;. Unfortunately, I don&#039;t think there would be a proper conclusion in this case. The way we have been going on about this is as if some important story was omitted like how Kirito took on Heathcliff. If you say that it&#039;s important, understand this, it&#039;s not in the official printed LN. If you argue for the case of how the MEs and other stuff are all uploaded even though they&#039;re not in print media, again, bottom line is whether the three groups of people want it online.--[[User:Teh Ping|Teh Ping]] ([[User talk:Teh Ping|talk]]) 04:06, 18 September 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It seems like my point is being missed...removing content because it is &amp;quot;objectionable,&amp;quot; is not something I think BT should do. It&#039;s not in the official printed LN, which is why I said it should be moved to side stories. I don&#039;t really care if it consummates their relationship or not (it&#039;s a harem where one girl is given the &amp;quot;I&#039;m going to win regardless&amp;quot; before said chapter even happens, so...) There is no such thing as &amp;quot;damage done&amp;quot; if you ask me: if the author thought it was good enough to be on his site, I&#039;m not going to judge it as some &amp;quot;garbage&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;painful to read&amp;quot; work of a fan. And while you, Gabgrave, may think DxD/Campione is not R-18, you would have an incredibly hard time persuading someone who was raised in a Western environment otherwise (I read all three of these titles, and they go pretty far, haha.) I&#039;m not sure why anyone is getting upset over this, but I can&#039;t keep a rational topic going for long if I&#039;m the only one trying to do so. I&#039;ll drop it with this. -- Anonymous&lt;br /&gt;

Can&#039;t believe I actually registered an account just to respond to this message. Look, are you trying to guilt trip the other guys here, or are you just trying to get them to say sorry for removing and stuff? From the look of your first paragraph, it already showed that you were trying to blame someone for this, especially Teh Ping. I can understand why Ping wanted to hurry up and get over this because he has better things to do than to respond to someone like you who&#039;s digging up the past for your own sake. If you want to know where your beloved 16.5 went, just follow what Zero got to. Rational topic? How rational is it in the first place when you&#039;re talking about it, &#039;&#039;3 months after it was removed,&#039;&#039; when everyone is planning to just continue on, and how about talking about R-18 and stuff when your American standard doesn&#039;t match what the Japanese assume to be R-18? There&#039;s a reason why Campione and DxD are both published while this 16.5, even with Japan&#039;s lax standard for fanservice nowadays, failed to make the cut. Consider me grateful that it was taken down because it was such a huge distraction (Doesn&#039;t chapter 17 imply that they did it in the first place?). Now, if you&#039;re going to continue to post here regarding this, I think Teh Ping would be pissed that he has to be the one arguing with you instead of working on volume 10 of SAO (I can only remain patient as a reader).--[[User:Wertmog|Wertmog]] ([[User talk:Wertmog|talk]]) 21:38, 18 September 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

I&#039;m honestly kind of impressed. Like, why do either of you visit this site? Apparently neither of you can read at all! I do not care about too much about 16.5. It is easy to find and it does not add much, if anything, to the story. I care about the fact that &#039;&#039;&#039;IT WAS CONSIDERED SOMETHING THAT SHOULD NOT BE UPLOADED AND LATER REMOVED BECAUSE OF OBJECTIONABLE CONTENT.&#039;&#039;&#039; There is nothing about guilt trips and I have no idea why people like you have to make things personal despite my repeated assurances that I was not. The entire point of me bringing up standards is because &#039;&#039;&#039;THERE ARE NO SUCH STANDARDS.&#039;&#039;&#039; What is considered obscene in Japan is not considered obscene in the US, and the opposite is often true as well. When you do things like this, you create a standard. And creating this particular standard jeopardizes other projects in the future because declaring what content is appropriate is a &#039;&#039;very&#039;&#039; slippery slope. There is nothing to argue about; this is simply how things work. That concerns me and I would rather say &amp;quot;this looks dangerous&amp;quot; instead of standing by and waiting for things to play out. I&#039;m glad Ping cares enough to read and respond to my concerns, but it seems like he simply assumed I was complaining about how 16.5 is gone and nothing more. I don&#039;t want to assign &amp;quot;blame&amp;quot; or else I would be quite frank about it (as I am with you two.) I don&#039;t consider it his responsibility that the chapter was taken down, but BT&#039;s as a whole. Furthermore, Ping is free to do whatever he pleases; I doubt he considers &amp;quot;arguing&amp;quot; with me a priority when choosing between the browsing the internet, translating, and whatever other recreational stuff he does. So take your flame baits somewhere else. Or don&#039;t, I said I would drop this, and now I will. I voiced my concerns and what&#039;s done is done. If someone can&#039;t handle me having the last word, insult me or tell me how wrong I am... or let the issue die. Regardless, I wish the best to Ping and those involved with translating, as well as those who bothered to think about my concerns in a logical manner. --Anonymous&lt;br /&gt;

== Similar to Prince Revolution? ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;ve read two chapters of SAO and up to chapter 4 of PR&#039;s Vol3 and so far the settings are really similar, although they&#039;re different in terms of characters and amount of comedy and other things.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It may be very similar, but you can&#039;t say that this setting is very unique in terms of anime and manga, I mean, look at .Hack. I think that this is the similarity is only a result of the similar settings.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
_______________________________________&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Prince Revolution is the name of the site/group that translates the novel &amp;quot;1/2 Prince&amp;quot; by Yu Wo. Not the novel itself. There may be some similiarities to 1/2 Prince, the .Hack//-series or Yureka, but that is because all of them are about virtual reality MMOs. If you look at them from another point of view, you might see the differences in the plot. SAO is about being trapped in the game, with virtual death killing your real body and the struggle to escape this. This is not the case in 1/2 Prince, where the big problem lies in&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
-*************SPOILER ALERT START************ (Is it possible to put the following lines in a spoiler-tab? I have no idea how to do it)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
NPCs getting self-concious and revolting against human players in the game world. Yureka also have a few &amp;quot;virtual death = real death&amp;quot; parts, but the main story is about the main character finding the hacking program called Yureka who is somewhere in the game world. I haven&#039;t read .Hack//, so sadly, I can&#039;t say anything about that.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
-*************SPOILER ALERT END*************&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, think of this before you imply that a novel is a copy of another one. Sure, it may have been an inspiration to SAO (Actually, that depends on which of them were written first), but unless the plot is the exact same thing, they are looked at as two different novels. An example of this is Lion King. It is inspired by Hamlet, but would you sue Disney for trying to copy Shakespeare?&lt;br /&gt;

Just a little trivia: December was dubbed &amp;lt;&amp;lt;The Month of Holly&amp;gt;&amp;gt; here, because the kanji character for holly (柊; commonly read as &#039;&#039;Hiiragi&#039;&#039;) can also be read as &amp;quot;Noel&amp;quot;, which also means Christmas. And since Christmas falls on December 25th, well you&#039;ve got the point. Hope this help :)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Well, all 12 months of Aincrad were given names after a kind of tree, so I&#039;m sure it&#039;s an in-game thing. People don&#039;t actually call it the month of Holly irl  --[[User:M.A.D|M.A.D]] - [[User_talk:M.A.D|Talk]] 11:24, 16 August 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

Hey, &lt;br /&gt;
I just saw some kind of SAO-manga and wasn&#039;t quite sure what it actually was - a oneshot? some fan-made stuff? or is there really going to be a SAO-manga?&lt;br /&gt;

== LAUGHING COFFIN ARC ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ok, I have been debating with myself (I&#039;m going nuts) whether to add the LAUGHING COFFIN ARC in the table of contents- It seems that this arc, happened during Aincrad, a side story that should be included in the Volume 2. But because it&#039;s long (4 chapters) the publishers dropped it, but the events in this is mentioned in vol.1, tho, in a few words only. It&#039;d be nice if we can read the entire story about this right? Kirito, Asuna and other Clearers vs the Laughing Coffin Guild, the biggest PKers in Aincrad. - Saorian&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;d love to read the laughing coffin arc. From what I&#039;ve heard, it might be important to some of the other books. But, would you add it as if it were another book - like instead of Sword Art Online: Volume ## --&amp;gt; Sword Art Online:Laughing Coffin Arc?--[[User:Darn2k|Darn2k]] 14:36, 15 April 2011 (UCT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
How about like this: Volume SS - LAUGHING COFFIN ARC , and stick it between Volume 2 and 3? - Saorian&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I added it - since Side Stories 1,2,3,6 were made into vol2 Aincrad, Side Stories 4 included in Phantom Bullet vol 5 and Side Story 6 got it&#039;s own very own book, vol 7 - It&#039;s safe to say that SAO SS 5 - Laughing Coffing Guild arc, won&#039;t get published as it&#039;s Timeline was passed on already (between vol 2 and 3) The other SS respected the proper timeline...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
----&lt;br /&gt;
Btw. if more timeline issues pop up you could create a timeline page, where the story is listed sorted in chronological order... --[[User:Darklor|Darklor]] 21:57, 16 May 2011 (UCT)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
So is this chapter even published? Because from what I read here it seems it&#039;s out but nobody wants to add it cause we already went past it in chronological order.&lt;br /&gt;
I fail to see how that&#039;s a reason though as the special with Kirito meeting Asuna was inserted after we went past those event.&lt;br /&gt;
Can someone clarify?&lt;br /&gt;

== Simply Amazing ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is simply amazing. Honestly I&#039;m not much of a crybaby I watch and read sad animes and mangas all the time and just take them in as a story. So far I&#039;ve only cried twice during watching all the animes and mangas I&#039;ve seen in the past 5,6 years of my life, to Bitter Virgin (Manga) and to Kanon 2006 (anime... which truthfully I watch all eps in a single sitting crying from ep 7 onwards practically non stop.). So far this Story has made me cry numerous times. It is so well written and the characters are so real its strange.Only problem I have with it is that I don&#039;t like how volume 2 works. I only really like the AsunaxKirito/Kazuka storyline not all that extra stuff that doesn&#039;t continue on with the story. Sadly the way I see it after reading Volume 1 I can&#039;t see any room for a prequel. The story starts with entering SOA. And nothing that happens up until he kills the Ragout Rabbit matters. I spose how Asuna and Kirito initially met matters slightly but honestly, I find it much better knowning that they knew each other as acquaintances and thats all. Even the part about him having Asuna nap next to him really doesn&#039;t add all that much.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Volume 3 while not as touching seems to bring up a lot of my memories of the first volume as well as adding in some slight new things... it doesn&#039;t really seem it (so far only on chapter 3) but it does so in a subtler way then Vol 1&lt;br /&gt;

Ahhh dear editors, don&#039;t build up sooo much suspense! I and I think many others are like dying to read the final chapter (though I think the highlight were chapter 7 and 8). But really thanks a lot for all of your work! I really appreciate it!&lt;br /&gt;
== confused ==&lt;br /&gt;
s00000 uhhhhh chapter 8 was actually the last chapter and chapter 9 was a joke? im confuse.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
No it is not, there is a chapter 9, and it will be out soon. If rnn doesn&#039;t post it by noon, I will.--[[User:Darn2k|Darn2k]] 08:48, 24 May 2011 (UCT)&lt;br /&gt;

== Confused, but for a different reason ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
First off, thanks so much for the excellent translating job everyone&#039;s doing! But, I&#039;m a little confused as to why v7 is being translated before v5&amp;amp;6. Is v7 a type of stand-alone volume/how does it relate in time to the arch&#039;s of v5&amp;amp;6? Ok, now I think I&#039;m rambling, but I hope you get what I&#039;m asking. Thanks again and keep up the good work!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
They are being translated by different groups/people.--[[User:Darn2k|Darn2k]] 19:03, 26 May 2011 (UCT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ah! Thanks for the answer. Don&#039;t know why that thought didn&#039;t occur to me.&lt;br /&gt;

Is someone translating this? --[[User:Darklor|Darklor]] 15:43, 14 June 2011 (UCT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I don&#039;t think so, or at least if it is, no-one has updated to show a larger portion of the story. which is a pity really because there aren&#039;t enough translators, though if decent enough translations are made part by part, and the abundant editors will probably be able to sort out grammar and consistency [[Special:Contributions/92.41.251.249|92.41.251.249]] 16:39, 7 November 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I believe it is being translated, but might not be posted here yet because of the Alitization spoilers [[User:Bilagaana|Bilagaana]] ([[User talk:Bilagaana|talk]]) 16:56, 7 November 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

== Appreciate the work ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hey, I recently started reading sword art online, and I sincerely appreciate the work that&#039;s been done thus far. I&#039;d love to contribute, but an upcoming major exam&#039;s hogging my time. Sword Art&#039;s been great read, and it really helps in stress relief. Once again, thanks all.&lt;br /&gt;
this page has now gotten over 1,000,000 views!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Great story, great translation! ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I just finished volume 4 and I wanted to stop by and say how awesome you guys are for translating this.&lt;br /&gt;
This series is a great piece of science fiction and I&#039;m glad you guys are bringing it to another audience.&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;ve heard how troublesome and time consuming translating can be, especially Japanese, but you&#039;re all doing an awesome job!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Keep up the good work! :)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== I think this is an issue ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Chapter four of Mother&#039;s Rosario has the link that leads to chapter five, but chapter five isn&#039;t shown as being done or having any link on the main project page.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Probably means that the translator doesn&#039;t want his incomplete work to be shown to the masses yet I guess.--[[User:WingsofSnow|WingsofSnow]] 09:44, 16 September 2011 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

Hope it will be good like .hack&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
I heard a game is coming underway too, is that true?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
How many episodes do you suppose there will be in the anime? Hope they&#039;re more than 12. Also is there only one season planned or will that depend on the ratings? GAME?!?!? mmo based on ALO or visual novel?&lt;br /&gt;

== Replacement of nav table with nav template ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I would hence like to propose that we replace the current (and if I may say, extremely limited capability carrying) nav table system:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
ie:&lt;br /&gt;
{| border=&amp;quot;1&amp;quot; cellpadding=&amp;quot;5&amp;quot; cellspacing=&amp;quot;0&amp;quot; style=&amp;quot;margin: 1em 1em 1em 0; background: #f9f9f9; border: 1px #aaaaaa solid; padding: 0.2em; border-collapse: collapse;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
| Back to [[Sword Art Online:Volume 2 Chapter 3|Chapter 3]]&lt;br /&gt;
| Return to [[Sword Art Online|Main Page]]&lt;br /&gt;
| Forward to [[Sword Art Online:Volume 2 Chapter 4 Part 2|Part 2]]&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
with the new [[Template:SAO Nav|SAO Nav Template]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
ie: {{SAO Nav|prev=Sword Art Online:Volume 2 Chapter 3|next=Sword Art Online:Volume 2 Chapter 4 Part 2}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
which is becoming popular and has more capabilities/advantages.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Advantages of the new system:&lt;br /&gt;
#We can decrease the overall page storage size. (No need to write long code, just the call code will be enough, take a look of this section in edit mode to get the picture.)&lt;br /&gt;
#Have a call code that is easier to:&lt;br /&gt;
##memorize&lt;br /&gt;
##recall&lt;br /&gt;
##and write. (Again, see in edit mode if you still don&#039;t understand)&lt;br /&gt;
#Have page jumping ability to any page in the series regardless of where we currently are, thus speeding up page navigation in case of checking previous or future facts for comparison.&lt;br /&gt;
#Can make changes to template page itself and have the navs on the pages immediately mirror the changes. (Reduction of data redundancy and error, ie: you wont have to go through all the pages and change every single one just editing the template page will be enough).&lt;br /&gt;
#Template&#039;s next and prev links are generic so they can be used for both volume and chapter pages without problems, ie: uniform system.&lt;br /&gt;
#Collapsibility ensures that size is compact and acceptable, for jumping one just needs to expand it by clicking the [show] link.&lt;br /&gt;
#Page center aligned. (Not really important, it looks better than right aligning it, still... minor point)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This template was previously fully implemented but then removed due to some issues. All those in favor or against please respond. If you wish any improvements to the template then please suggest them on the [[Template Talk:SAO Nav]] page. I will address them as best as I can. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 14:25, 11 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hey hey. If there is no one against it then it is fine to implement it, right? I mean the advantages listed above show that it is more beneficial to implement. And no one having any points against it kinda also suggests the same. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 07:34, 28 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m against it and I already implemented a nav bar with most of the advantages you mentioned. I put it in volume 1 and will do the other volume soon.&lt;br /&gt;
[[User:Vaelis|Vaelis]] 08:47, 28 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hmm so you are using this:&lt;br /&gt;
{{Nav|Sword Art Online:Volume 1 Chapter 1|{{SAO List v1a}}|Sword Art Online}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Page jumping is still not implemented. That is the main functionality of my proposed template. And you say that you are against it? May I ask why? Please explain in detail. I say that there is a great advantage in implementing it because it will allow both users and translators to jump between pages.&lt;br /&gt;
*Translators will be able to navigate between their different chapters more easily and create new chapters with just a click. &#039;&#039;(Plus since the chapter page names will be decided beforehand there won&#039;t be a chance of page name inconsistency that often happens.)&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
*Furthermore, users will be able to navigate more easily as well &#039;&#039;(in the case of dead ends as well as to check a previous chapter for a related fact, or to skip a volume while re-reading, people do that you know)&#039;&#039;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If I recall previously you mentioned that you didn&#039;t like how the template &#039;&#039;looks&#039;&#039; like, is that correct? I must tell you that Infinite Stratos, Itsuka Tenma, Toaru, BakaTest, Chrome Shelled Regios, Dantalian no Shoka have all implemented and started making use of similar templates. I&#039;m only trying to do what is best for this project. Please support me. I assure you that you won&#039;t regret it. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 17:26, 28 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On the opposite side the template Vaelis has implemented is rather interesting. Hmm it has properly addressed the problem of repetition, excessive space wastage, as well as the non-user-friendly coding. Particularly that is automatically generating the links. Very interesting. I&#039;ll examine it thoroughly. Maybe I can implement that in my templates somehow. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 17:28, 28 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hey hey. We need more participants in this discussion. Please tell us which template you think has more functionalities. User feedback is essential. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 17:37, 28 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I don&#039;t know about other people, but all I need is the link back to Main. The Back and Next is nice extra. For reading, I mainly use my other comp that is not logged on, so I can read cached stuff which is faster. If people don&#039;t already know, if you sign in with a name while reading, you get served fresh pages every time, anon people get faster cached pages.

&lt;br /&gt;
- Personally, I don&#039;t really care as long as &amp;quot;forward&amp;quot; &amp;quot;main page&amp;quot; are included, since I simply tap backspace to get back, though I must say it&#039;d look ugly without the &amp;quot;back button&amp;quot;. Also, jumping through halyard from a volume to another volume is, I must say, unuseful in my case. However, I find the nav bar pretty good-looking, which is the reason why I wasn&#039;t fully opposed back then, even if I was sceptical about it. Personally, if the bar could simply keep the back/forward buttons, the main page buttons, it&#039;d be fine, though I would like the chapter names indicated on th next/previous button. Also, I feel more concerned about these huge references tag that take too much space in the text than the nav bar... [[User:Kira0802|Kira]] ([[User_talk:Kira0802|Talk]]) 21:09, 28 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I agree with Kira. Note this isn&#039;t about SAO directly but rather about this type of navbar as a whole. If I really want to jump chapters/volumes, I really won&#039;t care about 2 clicks instead of 1 (Main -&amp;gt; the chapter I want). Actually, I don&#039;t even use the Main button much, just the Forward one. I can&#039;t recall ever using the Back button. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For me I&#039;m fine whether or not the chapter name is included, because when just reading I don&#039;t care what the name of the next chapter is, I can just click Forward to get to it, and when I&#039;m editing stuff I use the Main Page as a portal (it&#039;d be open in a tab by itself) and the chapter names are available there.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In fact, I&#039;ve even created a group of navs that have most of the advantages you state and maintains the simplicity of the Nav template, but is in my opinion better than the generic Nav template, in that it is specialized for each novel, so if it needs to be changed for some specific novel it can be done without affecting any of the other novels. They can be found [[:Category:Simple_Navbars|here]]. It would be nice if there is some kind of standard that could be decided, for the moment anyways. By the way, I&#039;m starting to think this doesn&#039;t fit in the SAO talk anymore and maybe should have a forum topic.. --[[User:Jonathanasdf|jonathanasdf]] 21:43, 28 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hmm, interesting points, I&#039;ll try and explain my reasoning below:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*You guys might say that you don&#039;t care but you must admit that it is much easier to navigate if it is a one step method (chapter A -&amp;gt; chapter B) rather than a two step method (Chapter A -&amp;gt; Main Page -&amp;gt; Chapter B). While you may say you might not care, page jumping can help speed up navigation for those who reach dead ends or are translating multiple chapters at the same time. Plus the Next, Previous and Main Page Links are already present in the SAO Nav. Additionally I don&#039;t think forum is needed. This is about SAO strictly.&lt;br /&gt;
*About chapter names included in the next previous: my stance is that it makes the whole thing look bulky. And you can simply expand SAO Nav not only to see your own position (black text) but also the positions of all the chapters (translated and untranslated) this helps motivate people to translate more chapters in less time because of the clash between the visual red and blue links.&lt;br /&gt;
*Those who strictly want to use the next/previous/main buttons need not expand the template at all just use the Next, Prev and Main Page Name Links. It&#039;s a system that caters to both types. And just doesn&#039;t restrict itself to one type. Plus the SAO Nav is for the SAO Novels alone so making changes in it will only affect SAO and no other novels.&lt;br /&gt;
*I am not a fan of the words forward and back since they give off a vibe in terms of page navigation history rather than novel navigation (by page history navigation I mean those two back and forward buttons in the Navigation Toolbar of your Internet Browser).&lt;br /&gt;
*Simple Navs only cater to those who read through linearly and only once. Not everyone does. SAO Nav caters to both parties and it&#039;s already ready to roll, so why is it wrong? [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 23:37, 28 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 this helps motivate people to translate more chapters in less time because of the clash between the visual red and blue links.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
hahaha if only that was true :P&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It&#039;s not &amp;quot;wrong&amp;quot; imo, it just seems a bit ... overkill. I&#039;m neither for nor against, in that my stance is &amp;quot;I don&#039;t really care either way as long as there is some way to get to the next chapter&amp;quot;, but I would like it to be standardized. Also, even if this is SAO only I still think it belongs in the forums because it&#039;s hard to quote stuff in wiki. --[[User:Jonathanasdf|jonathanasdf]] 00:54, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It&#039;s actually true. It&#039;s a subconscious trick I learned from my experience with mediawiki. People can&#039;t stand redlinks. They desire to remove them or turn them blue. If they can&#039;t remove them then they can &#039;&#039;&#039;only&#039;&#039;&#039; turn them blue by making articles. This is one of the things I have learned. Please have faith in me. I believe this trick has actually helped speed up the translation rates on many of the projects where similar templates have been implemented. I don&#039;t know about you guys, but I am sick and tired of waiting. If only I could read kanji/hiragana/katagana, I could help translate. But since I can&#039;t I must use such methods. If I didn&#039;t I&#039;d just be a simple leacher (At least this way I can contribute indirectly). Furthermore, I assure you that my template will sate &#039;&#039;&#039;both&#039;&#039;&#039; those who want linear navigation &#039;&#039;&#039;and&#039;&#039;&#039; those who need to jump between chapters quickly. Isn&#039;t that better than just favoring one party? [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 10:20, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I hereby declare. Implementing SAO Nav &#039;&#039;&#039;will&#039;&#039;&#039; improve not only the navigation but also the rate of translation. It is a time-tested surefire method. Please support me. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 10:34, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There&#039;s no need for that. Ping&#039;s doing a good job enough so we don&#039;t need to subconsiously press him. IMO, anavbar should just go forward and to the main page. No, wait, you just need to click &#039;SAO&#039; on the sidebar to get back to the main page. Also, Zero, I&#039;ll ask you this: When do you surf through a certain chapter of a volume to another chapter 2-3 volumes after? There&#039;s no need for that, and in my old computer, the bar colapses too slowly. Not that I do really mind, since it&#039;s at the bottom, but still, it loads unnecessary content. [[User:Kira0802|Kira]] ([[User_talk:Kira0802|Talk]]) 11:15, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I prefer the old one for its simplicity. Just go for previous/next chapter, and navigate 2 other chapters frm main page. short n simple. --[[User:Chancs|Chancs]] 11:29, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Time-tested surefire method? Where&#039;s the evidence? As for why I personally don&#039;t think the chapter jumping is useful, it is because I actually rely on chapter titles to look for where I want to jump to, and this navbar doesn&#039;t have (and can&#039;t really have) chapter titles. So, to me there is no advantage of this navbar over the old one, so I am not supporting it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At the same time, to me there is no disadvantage that this navbar brings since my internet and computer are fast enough to load both at around the same speed, so I am not against it either... --[[User:Jonathanasdf|jonathanasdf]] 13:13, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I completely agree with &#039;chapters title&#039; issue --[[User:Chancs|Chancs]] 13:27, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Simple design is fine, but the aforementioned lack of chapter title is a huge turn-off for me as well --[[User:TheQwertiest|TheQwertiest]] 14:15, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is time tested. Shortly after it&#039;s implementation Infinite Stratos picked up it&#039;s pace of translation as did Itsuka Tenma and Baka Test, I will concede that for some reason it didn&#039;t work on Hidan no Aria, but it still has a high success rate. Toaru and Chrome Shelled don&#039;t count because they are near completion. About the chapters title issue. I can easily implement further variable tags that can take chapter names from writers and thus display them like the nav table of old. Even though I won&#039;t like that but if you guys say that you prefer it that way I can do it. Or I can Implement a system like the one in the [[Template:Nav]]. To have both links and have chapter names be generated automatically. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 16:20, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I surf/go back to check up on a previous fact. For example in chapter 9 of volume 4 the people from Volume 2 make an appearance. I can go back to refresh my memory of them. And sorry I don&#039;t just read a story once. I find that I understand new things each time I read them (like foreshadowings, predictions, etc). Each time I read through I find new and more interesting tidbits. And I am not alone in this. Each and every person goes through stories more than once, either due to the aforementioned reasons or just because they want to read through it again. And it is not definite that they will read through all the volumes linearly. Some might want to skip certain volumes. And I for one find going back to the main page tiresome. It&#039;s unnecessary. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 16:33, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Though &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. Infinte Stratos was pretty much because Ping joined in. The content is rather easy. So is Baka-Test. I don&#039;t know about Itsuten though. However, the implentation of nav bar coincided with the summer vacations, if I remember well, so it&#039;s another factor.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. OK, fine, some do use the &#039;skip a few chapters&#039; function. However, from what I see from the comments, no one else needs it really.&lt;br /&gt;

Yeah, I&#039;m not sure that counts as proof, since the cause-effect could really go either way. Rather, I have a feeling it is because the translation speed picked up that there was more attention which led to the navbar being implemented. After all, I only see this navbar in the most popular novels...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And I was talking about the chapter names in the expanded navbar. I don&#039;t really care about chapter names in the next/prev because the only time I need chapter names is when I&#039;m looking back for stuff. I don&#039;t think this navbar can easily have chapter name support in the expanded mode because some of them are really long. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;ll try to stop writing anything more here since my stance is neutral anyways... --[[User:Jonathanasdf|jonathanasdf]] 17:45, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;About being not needed:&#039;&#039; Dude, that&#039;s how all new things start out. People think they don&#039;t need them but give a while of use and it becomes indispensable. A few centuries ago people didn&#039;t need electricity or natural gas as much as they do now. But now, they start rioting if it&#039;s cut off for too long.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;About Translation Speed:&#039;&#039; Ping was present before the template was added as well but only two volumes were translated. However after the Infinite Stratos Nav was implemented I believe a fire was sparked in Ping. I believe the redlinks were the motivation or rather the inspiration he needed. Of course I don&#039;t think this method affects everyone. But I&#039;m sure it does affect some. and their example will move others, kind of like those cartoons where a little rock knocks down a bigger one which in turn knocks over an even bigger one, thus triggering an avalanche. We need to motivate people, even if the most mundane or subliminal methods are present I believe we should grasp and use them. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 17:49, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Even if it is circumstantial evidence at best I have faith in this method. About chapter names: True it would be difficult to implement full chapter names. But it is possible in some cases. However we are not talking abpout nav templates as a whole. Only for SAO. Please bear that in mind. And SAO does not have many named chapters. So that isn&#039;t an issue here. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 17:55, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
...Zero, why would Ping scroll the nav bar anyways to see the red links? In my case, I post the translation, then I say &#039;Goodbye&#039; and leave. Also, he posts his translation progression in the forums, in a portfolio. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For the chapter names, I&#039;d like to say that I want to know where I&#039;m heading when I press &#039;forward&#039;. Especially when there&#039;s 24 chapters in a volume that you don&#039;t care to remember which chapter you are on. [[User:Kira0802|Kira]] ([[User_talk:Kira0802|Talk]]) 21:38, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Seeing red once would be enough, it stays in your head. Plus it is a fact that the pace picked up after implementation. And like I said I can add the next/prev page name display functionality if you guys really want it. But that&#039;s something to be requested on the [[Template Talk:SAO Nav]] page. It&#039;s actually quite simple to implement that. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 00:45, 30 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
------------&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
OK, here are the facts, ingnoring the IS argument since it was mostly because Ping started translating like a madafter he finished Index. They obviously show the opposite of what you are saying. Here&#039;s my statement: &#039;&#039;&#039;The translation pace does not get faster if there is a nav bar of added, with all the red links and else. It might even slow the pace.&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Itsuten: Volume 1 got completed 7 days earlier than Volume 3. Volume 1 was done before the nav bar was added, and volume 3, after. Can&#039;t say if it worked or not, but it&#039;s more penching towards the &#039;no&#039; side.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Hidan no Aria: The comparison before/after is obvious. It didn&#039;t work.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Dantalian: What is the number of chapters completed since the nav bar was added? 0. It probably didn&#039;t work.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Chrome Shelled Regios: 41k done in around four months. Around 178k before for the same length of time. Didn&#039;t work.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Toaru Majutsu no Index, NT and SS: I can&#039;t find the updates page, but it probably changed nothing. However, Ping retired shortly after, so the place probably got slower. Following that reasoning, I say that it has less translation after. Though let&#039;s put this in the gray zone if you really want to insist.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Baka To test: Volume7 has been done in 78 days. Volume 3.5 in 76. Hwever, since the nav bar was added during the translation of 7, soI can&#039;t use that. As for Volume 7.5, I didn&#039;t calculate it as different chapters were done in different orders, and that I use the beginning of the first chapter and the creation of the full text as references.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Sword Art Online: During the time the bar was used, there were no completed chapters. Did not work.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

:Finally, someone who does his homework. I see, but I still hold that it does motivate others at a subconscious level (so much so that people don&#039;t realize it, normal rate is that it takes half a year to translate a single volume). It does not change the fact that SAO Nav will make navigation easier. Does it? Easier navigation leads to more popularity in websites which in turn will lead to faster development here. &#039;&#039;&#039;[http://www.mardiros.net/good-navigation.html That is a fact]&#039;&#039;&#039; (See &#039;&#039;Less clicks the better&#039;&#039;). Jeez it&#039;s even drilled into every Computer Science student while discussing website development. Just look at the sidebar on the left. Why do you think they listed and linked the project names there when they could have made a separate page with the list? Answer: for faster navigation. Just because you won&#039;t use it, it&#039;s not right to ignore those who do. If you think there are people who would use it, shouldn&#039;t you accommodate them? Or will you ignore them just because they don&#039;t think like you. That&#039;s why I integrated next prev in all the nav templates, so that &#039;&#039;both sides would be happy&#039;&#039;.

&lt;br /&gt;
:You also mentioned (many posts ago) that the SAO Nav would collapse slowly. That&#039;s a personal problem. Since coding is used for the collapsing function, it stands that it&#039;s the fault of your computer alone. Nowadays everyone has at least a Core 2 Duo level processor. Those who don&#039;t are way behind the times. If you also have a Core 2 Duo or higher level processor then you must have CPU % intensive processes running on your computer in the background (try terminating them if there are, just be sure to check if they aren&#039;t a critical process on the net). But even if you don&#039;t and there is some other reason for the slowness that is no concrete reason to shelve faster navigation. The bar is at the bottom. By the time you would reach the bottom of the page (while reading) it would already have been collapsed. Like I said before it might not seem necessary now but give it a few weeks and it&#039;ll become indispensable. That&#039;s how it always goes with every new thing.

&lt;br /&gt;
:Toaru and Chrome Shelled Regios were already near completion before the navbar was implemented. The navbar does not seem to work for nearly completed projects for some reason. I acknowledge that weak point. I also acknowledged that the navbar doesn&#039;t affect everyone but those it does effect would in turn affect others. As for SAO I don&#039;t think enough time was given before it was taken down. Thus that cannot be included. Hidan no Aria: well I won&#039;t say anything on those guys. They&#039;d probably take offense. But at least they didn&#039;t reject the template so they must have either found it useful or didn&#039;t care. Come to think about it if you don&#039;t care either way then there isn&#039;t any problem is there?

:Yes. Yes. Yes. I am a &amp;lt;big&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;BIG&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;/big&amp;gt; fan. But I can&#039;t translate (although I can be an editor/proofreader, but I don&#039;t think it&#039;s enough). So I did what I could and made a nav template with advanced features. I wanted to help in any way I could. And what happened? A few days later all the changes I made were removed just because it looked slightly different from before. Look, with progress comes change. You can&#039;t help it. If you can&#039;t adapt then we&#039;ll just stay stuck in the same place forever. If you google it you&#039;ll find thousands of articles by famous website developers saying one thing. The lesser the number of page loadings required to get to a goal the better, aka &amp;quot;less clicks the better&amp;quot;. Why do you think the sidebar with links to all projects exist? Why do you think that the chapters are transcluded into one volume page after said volume is completed? Answer: people want to reach their goal quickly and with less page loading. Please, I humbly request that I be allowed to apply SAO Nav. It will speed up page navigation for sure, thus it is &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;beneficial&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039; &#039;&#039;&#039;(not detrimental)&#039;&#039;&#039; to the SAO Project.

Think I have an idea about the resistance, your version is nice but it&#039;s a lot of work to update. I think they want a standardized version that&#039;s easy to use, even for people with not a lot of wiki knowledge. Or do you promise to make them forever?

&lt;br /&gt;
:I can promise to make and update them for a long time. And I promise that before I leave I will train a successor that can do it as good as or even better than me. I can&#039;t say forever since life doesn&#039;t have any guarantees. Plus actually the templates are understandable by anyone who just sits down and looks at the code properly. That&#039;s how I learned, at least (ie: By looking at others work and understanding how it is done). Furthermore I think there are candidates for my successor here already. Vaelis who designed [[Template:Nav]] for instance, there&#039;s also larethian. And what do you mean it is a lot of work to update? For a new volume, all you have to do is copy the code for the previous row, make the necessary changes (ie: change the volume number and chapter links) and viola! It isn&#039;t tough at all. The people at other projects have already learned how to update them. Just a few days ago [[Template:Hidan no Aria Nav]] was updated with a full volume and not by me.

I made a few adjustments thus reducing the height of the expanded template.

== About Volume 6 Chapter 13 ==&lt;br /&gt;

Excerpted from a dialogue from Vol. 6 Chapter 13:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kikuoka: &amp;quot;...That was really shocking. I thought that this little thing was the ALO support system «Navagiation Pixie»... but to gather so much information and make conclusions at such a short time. Little girl...are you interested in &#039;&#039;&#039;pu&#039;&#039;&#039;...no, do you want to work for the «Virtual Division»?&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think it should be &amp;quot;la&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;ra&amp;quot; instead of &amp;quot;pu&amp;quot;. The &amp;quot;ra&amp;quot; part is actually a foreshadowing to the next main arc, Alicization.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I didn&#039;t really understand what he meant to say so I left it as the translator had it. I think the &amp;quot;pu&amp;quot; might be part of &amp;quot;public&amp;quot;?

I originally had it as Calibur for the sword name we are familiar with, but I happen to glance at the last chapter while counting parts, and sigh.

== Asuna&#039;s Avatar - a mystery ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Correct me if I&#039;m wrong, but didn&#039;t it say that Asuna did NOT buy the NervGear she uses when playing SAO? If so, why is her avatar a perfect image of herself? Didn&#039;t the sellers only scan the people who actually BOUGHT the NervGear? Since Asuna just used the NervGear which wasn&#039;t hers... wouldn&#039;t that make her avatar look like someone else? @___@&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Nah, you remember how Cline said when you start up you have to calibrate it to yourself? So when she put it on, she had to go through the calibration, thus it looks like her. [[User:Syaoran|Syaoran]] 01:14, 17 January 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I doubt that NervGear has the scanning functionality. As a specialized gear, it wouldn&#039;t need scanning functionality for normal game play. Another manga with a similar virtual reality background [http://www.batoto.net/comic/_/comics/yureka-r101 Yureka] has a similar avatar system and has a separate body scanning step as well. -[[User:Milki|milki]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Well, my evidence was these lines:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;There are high density signal sensors in the NERvGear covering our whole head. So it can tell not only how our brains look, but our faces too...&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
And&lt;br /&gt;
Calibration was where the NERvGear measured «how much you had to move your hand to reach your body». This was done to reproduce the sense of feel accurately within the game. So to say, it was almost as if the NERvGear had data about our exact figures saved inside itself. [[User:Syaoran|Syaoran]] 02:04, 17 January 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I suspect that, while the NERvGear would be able to scan the face to reproduce facial expressions to an extent, it does not do the same for the rest of the body. Calibration could probably be done by just measuring nerve signals - move your hand up towards you until you touch your body, and it would just recognize your hand/arm movement until you touch your body. -[[User:Milki|milki]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Actually, currently there is a machine that can calculate your body muscle and fat composition by running electricity though your body and it is just as big as a regular scale. Moreover it is easy to obtain your height and leg length through the calibration process. By applying this data, it is pretty easy to build a body that is similar to your current body.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Another theories is to use ultrasonic (or supersonic) sound wave to obtain your body image. NERvGear can emit microwave strong enough to melt your brain so it is not entirely impossible.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My concern is how the did it obtain the character hair style since the NERvGear is like a bike helmet ^^!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is only my speculation, anybody whom actually an expert in this field please feel free to correct--[[User:Hayate-sama|Hayate-sama]] 13:11, 17 January 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The NERvGear is an mini MRI/NMR (for scanning, and pulsed magnetic stimulation for feedback) so it can scan the head and face. No idea how it gets eye and hair color though. It might be able to find out the lenght of the hair and how curly/strait it is by the hight percition scanning. To even work the NERvGear needs submilimeter acuracy so scanning the hair will be easy. (Anon)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For the hair style: I think hair style is something the players can change by themselves, like how one can pick up movable objects, I think combing would be allowed at least. The only difference is hair color which, from what I know from Aria in the Starless Night (SAO SS), is customizable via a monster drop item.

&lt;br /&gt;
For the body, currently it is possible to take multiple photographs from different angles and compile them to make holograms, thus it should be possible to do the same here (especially since the tech is way advanced here). All one would need to make sure is that the height is given which could be used as a scale for the 3d photo.

&lt;br /&gt;
Wasn&#039;t there a part where they said her bro bought the NGear and the game, but could not play it as he was overseas, so she was the first to play it? In other words, Asuna would be the first user of the game, and it would be calibrated to her.

If we are discussing about how the body type, height, weight, sex etc was captured, well, they did say they had to key in certain particulars, and run their hands around their bodies. About the Hair styles and color, perhaps its more of what NG reads the mind as being the most comfortable with, through reading of the brainwaves of users in the first hour. Afterall, its not like all the characters in SAO have black hair, but multicolored, which I&#039;m sure would not be true IRL... then again, this is aniverse after all... --[[User:Gabgrave|Gabgrave]] 23:23, 17 January 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

@Zero Yeah, you can use pictures to create a 3D object but the problem is how to take them ^^! unless you have a mirror as big as you, otherwise, it impossible to take those pictures yourself.--[[User:Hayate-sama|Hayate-sama]] 01:13, 18 January 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Please note that SAO occurs in a more advanced world. Furthermore I said that height would be given (ie: entered as a perimeter) so that it can be used as a scale. Thus resizing the image would be possible. Nowadays there are graphic plugins for GIMP and Photoshop that allow resizing (blowing up of pictures, or more simply, making them bigger) without loss of quality. In an advanced world it would be a better process and more commonly used (ie: common knowledge). The main point here is that what we consider specialized knowledge would be common in the setting of SAO. After all, &#039;&#039;virtual reality has become real&#039;&#039; in the setting.

A famous quote from Arthur C. Clarke: &#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic&amp;quot;&#039;&#039;&#039;. You shouldn&#039;t think so deeply on it. Also it&#039;s a fact that as time will pass, what is considered advanced now will be considered common in the future. A general purpose computer, at the beginning, was a machine that was superbly expensive so much so that the normal person could not own it. Nowadays it&#039;s in every home. Well that&#039;s over the span of 60 years. But with things like [http://www.howstuffworks.com/invisibility-cloak.htm invisibility cloaks] being developed, you really can&#039;t say that what I&#039;m saying is wrong.

98 pages? Seriously? No wonder it take longer than usual to translate. I&#039;ll wait for it to be released, because it feels weird to skip over it and read the volume 6.

There is chapter 6 and 7 in volume 5. There is also a chapter 7 in volume 6, that I wanted to make into prologue, but our admin Vaelis changed it back to like the book when he fixed the above mistake.

Aaaaah I see. Thank you for clarifying and keep up the good work, it&#039;s a lot more fun to read the properly translated versions over the machine translation.&lt;br /&gt;

I don&#039;t mean to sound rude or anything but could the translators focus on finishing chapters 6 and 7 of Volume 5 , I do wanna read read aria in the starless night but even more than that I wanna finish reading Phantom bullet and there is just 2 untranslated chapters preventing me from reading an entire volume. Again I&#039;m sorry if I&#039;m acting rude, and I know that its not easy to translate. [[Username:Leonzell (not registered here) 1:44 AM GMT+10&lt;br /&gt;

Given the previous banter from certain users about this topic in the recent past, this does come off as a little rude.

If you cannot wait, the first chapter of book 6 does cover the events that happen in those missing chapters in summary. You do not really need to worry if you will miss anything important, the main plot is covered.

Actually, I still patiently waiting for chapter 6 to be fully translated, even though I have an urge to just skip it and read the volume 6.&lt;br /&gt;
But....how should I say it.... It feels &#039;incomplete&#039; if I just skip it (I&#039;m a bit perfectionist, sorry). So I beg you, if you have free time (which must be hard to find since you also have real life), please, would you consider to fully translate the chapter 6?

Don&#039;t know for sure, but I would need to check out how far the other translator got into the chapter. I got only a couple pages left of chapter 7 anyway, I sure could help out.

 Well, while writing on a piece of paper with a pen “” and ’ are used&lt;br /&gt;
 however &amp;quot;&amp;quot; are known as typewriter quotes and are also completely acceptable&lt;br /&gt;
 But &amp;quot;&amp;quot; or &#039; takes up less space so it is preferred for use in Media wiki based websites like this one.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
In other words it doesn&#039;t really matter unless you want to optimize space usage since they both look the same no matter which one you use. So please ignore it.

&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m a little confused. In the GGO arc... Is it &#039;&#039;&#039;Bullet&#039;&#039;&#039; of Bullets or &#039;&#039;&#039;Ballet&#039;&#039;&#039; of Bullets? Considering how Battle Tournaments are normally be named, &#039;&#039;&#039;Bullet&#039;&#039;&#039; of Bullets makes less sense than &#039;&#039;&#039;Ballet&#039;&#039;&#039; of Bullets (which actually fits more as far as tournament names go). Reason: fighting and dancing have often been interlinked. In medieval times strong noble warriors were also known for being good dancers since the movements used in battle are often similar to dance movements. See: [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capoeira Capoeira], [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calinda Calinda]. Oh I&#039;m getting off track. Anyways, since fighting and dancing are similar it&#039;s more likely the tournament is named &#039;&#039;&#039;Ballet of Bullets&#039;&#039;&#039; (even if guns are now used, it has historical meaning).

== Another SAO SS? ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Greetings. When I visited the author old site I saw several items that might be SAO SS.(well some are already being translated.)&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Like [Aria in the Starless Sky], [Absolute Solitude], [Fortune Star], [Resettable Saver], SS5-[A Murder Case in the Area], SS7-[Cradle of the Moon], and [Waterworks] (not sure about some of the title since I&#039;m using Google translate.)&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Aria in the Starless Sky&amp;amp;A Murder Case in the Area are already on translation. If it isn&#039;t too troublesome,may I ask if the other will also be put into translation somewhere in the near future? Thanks before.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m very intersting in those you mentioned as I have never run into them before, could you check if there&#039;re actual text inside? Of all those, I only have Cradle of the Moon, which is SS based on the Alizication arc, which is still untranslated so it has low priority for now. -- [[User:BeginnerXP|BeginnerXP]] 19:34, 15 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

Volume 9 is the version that is published, the web version is the version that was online. --[[User:Pryun|Pryun]] 01:12, 18 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ok.. so is the web version not part of the SAO universe with the kirito and asuna that we know? or its a separate story all together? [[User:Kyo171|Kyo171]] 01:19, 18 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The web version is similar to the published version, but not exactly the same. Any more information I can give is a spoiler, but if you don&#039;t mind spoilers you can go look at the images of volume 9. --[[User:Pryun|Pryun]] 01:23, 18 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hmm... roger that, coz i was confused looking at the images in vol 9 i see kirito and asuna that we are all familiar with, but in the web version there&#039;s a disclaimer saying that the kirito is not the kirito that we know of. I am talking about the roughly translated &amp;quot;Alicization Arc (Web Version)&amp;quot; in the mainpage btw. [[User:Kyo171|Kyo171]] 01:30, 18 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Alicization web version chapter 1 on the wiki is practically the same as the Prologue I of vol 9, author did a lot of minor changes including rewriting in a few places, but the overall summary is still the same. The reason readers felt it wasn&#039;t related to Kirito we know will be explained in the later chapters, but he&#039;s certainly the same Kirito. Alicization is currently the largest arc of SAO series (and I assume it&#039;d be the final main arc of the series too) and would need 5-6 volumes to cover its entire arc -- [[User:BeginnerXP|BeginnerXP]] 09:19, 18 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
ahhh.. thanks for the clarification, i have one more question, when would be the most optimum time to read the side story &amp;quot;versus&amp;quot;, the accel world crossover side story? I am currently on vol 5. --[[User:Kyo171|Kyo171]] 09:42, 18 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m not sure about Accel World side, but for SAO, there&#039;s no reference to anything significant after Fairy Dance, so I think it&#039;s fine to read it right after vol.4, but the story actually took place just slightly before Alicization arc, so author actually wants readers to read it after vol.8 (Accel World vol.10 released after SAO vol.8) -- [[User:BeginnerXP|BeginnerXP]] 10:27, 18 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== It&#039;s weird ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Aria in the Starless Night Side Story is when Kirito and Asuna meet for the first time in SAO. But do both or just Asuna forget about the other? In the other volumes it seems that Asuna got interested in Kirito after she saw him living (lazing around on the field) the game just as he would in reality (ie: the events in Vol8 Ch1, this is mentioned in other volumes too). Did Asuna forget about the events in Aria or what? Or did the author make a slight miss? [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  13:35, 21 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

It might be best to think of it like they simply met at a coffee shop, sure, they were fighting alongside each other, but that wasn&#039;t enough to get them past a formal acquaintanceship. [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] 14:24, 21 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

Heeh~ Sure &#039;&#039;and the whole bath thing just went over everybody&#039;s head~. Yup~ I&#039;m sure that was something easy to forget~.&#039;&#039; Like that&#039;d ever happen. That&#039;s why I&#039;m confused. He was the guy who introduced her to how food could taste better, he was the guy who taught her that there were better living conditions than INNs, he was the guy who taught her not to overkill and how to choose better weapons. I can get them being at the level of formal acquaintances till that point. What I&#039;m confused about is that in the other volumes there is no mention of her meeting him before the lazing around incident. Like they never even met before that. Weird isn&#039;t it? Well maybe it will be mentioned in vol8 chap1. I can&#039;t wait for the translation. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  16:39, 21 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
I dunno, Asuna might have blocked off some of that since it wasn&#039;t an all pleasant experience for her. Plus she still did keep that I want to clear this as fast as possible attitude til she met him in the upper floors again, so maybe she just forgot about it while trying to clear? I will agree with you, it is a pretty bad plot hole since you gotta think about it a lot to find a reason. [[User:Syaoran|Syaoran]] 18:10, 21 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I don&#039;t think that it is really a plot hole, as aria is a side story, but then again, recently I have been feeling like Kawahara has been giving them too much time together in side stories, if they were in a group of seven in aria, it would have been much better I believe. [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] 18:13, 21 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was pretty weird that Asuna and Kirito don&#039;t remember this some minor details have also been left out while in volumes but this meeting is just too big of an event so that they could forget but well seeing it is just a side story I guess it should be just fine as just seeing it in a way like you have said before Asuna after not seeing him again just started going crazy wanting to clear the game and Kirito being a Kirito just kinda forgot since the next time they saw each other took place about 1 year and 5 months later??[[User:Lelouch545|Lelouch545]]3:54, 11 Jule (PCT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It&#039;s possible that the author hadn&#039;t thought of any of these events when he wrote Volume 1. There are plenty of other inconsistencies throughout the side-stories, too. Since the side-stories are added after the main arc is over, it&#039;s best not to delve in too deep --[[Special:Contributions/92.239.153.44|92.239.153.44]] 06:21, 11 June 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Thinking of it , they never said once that Asuna falled in love with Kirito at the first meeting right ? They said she loved him when she had seen him &amp;quot;living&amp;quot; the game , but being clearers , it was obvious that they had met each other a while before , for Bosses figths , while mapping or other game contents, so the two of them meeting after one month of game isn&#039;t weird right ? For the memories, do you recall all the things you&#039;ve done with your acquaintances ? I can&#039;t of course , and in SAO  I think there&#039;s a lot more of memories than in our real life, so memories about an other player they met and isn&#039;t that important for them isn&#039;t really worthy of being talked about in the main plot.

Material Edition (ME) series is a series of &#039;&#039;&#039;doujinshis&#039;&#039;&#039; created by Kawahara Reki himself using the pen name &amp;quot;Kunori Fumio&amp;quot; (he used that pen name when he was writing the web novel of SAO). Most but not all of the volumes of the ME series are side stories. He sells the ME series at the Comitia market (not Comic Market) and also some doujinshi shops.&lt;br /&gt;
Below are the list of Material Edition volumes:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* ME1 - The Progressor (a short manga chapter drawn by Kawahara himself)&lt;br /&gt;
* ME2 - Early Characters&lt;br /&gt;
* ME3 - Ceramic Heart &lt;br /&gt;
* ME4 - Cold Hand, Warm Heart&lt;br /&gt;
* ME5 - Salvia&lt;br /&gt;
* ME6 - Algade Showdown&lt;br /&gt;
* ME7 - Continuation. Aria of the Starless Night&lt;br /&gt;
* ME8 - First Chapter of Rondo (second floor side story)&lt;br /&gt;
* ME9 - Monochrome Concerto&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
ME9 - Monochrome Concerto. yes, third floor, I&#039;d do it if I can find raws.--[[User:Pryun|Pryun]] - [[User_talk:Pryun|Talk]] 21:17, 29 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;ll add them in the timeline I need to complete, if I have some informations about their dates (I saw &amp;quot;September&amp;quot; in ME4 for example). -[[User:Misogi|Misogi]] 18:45, 30 April 2012 (GMT+1)&lt;br /&gt;

Okay So if there are any more please update on the list on the SAO Project Page at once. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  15:49, 30 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Regarding Pryun-san question about Sword Art Online: Material Editions 1.In my opinion,if it&#039;s allowed,please include the ME1.As it&#039;s a gaiden that&#039;s made by the same author supplementing the canon storyline.It&#039;ll be a sad thing if it&#039;s not posted and no manga reader site have posted it on theirs.--[[User:User753|User753]]-[[User talk:User753|Talk]]- 00:41, 1 May 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

If it&#039;s a manga version (picture, comics whatever, basically like the color pages in the first section of the talk page). Then if someone can translate it I can photoshop it into the pics.

I got my hands on ME1 manga, its in chinese, i could translate it into English and photoshop it into the manga. Unless Zero2001 wants to do the photoshopping... I am an amateur photoshopper though --[[User:Kyo171|Kyo171]] 04:34, 4 May 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

Oi... [http://www.batoto.net/comic/_/comics/sword-art-online-material-edition-soushuuhen-doujinshi-r4781 tap-trans has already done ME 1 and 3]. How much longer before we do it??? [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  17:30, 2 June 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Should we just post links to batoto on the main page at ME 1 and 3? It seems a waste to do the same work twice. --[[User:Saganatsu|Saganatsu]] 17:42, 2 June 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m all for that idea. But will it be accepted? [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  03:24, 3 June 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Based on what I have seen so far I believe that ME1: The Progressors should be named &amp;quot;The Clearers&amp;quot; instead since that is what the title is talking about in regards to the story and all the translations so far have used the term &amp;quot;Clearer&amp;quot; instead of &amp;quot;Progressor&amp;quot; --[[User:Arctosa|Arctosa]] 10:43, 10 June 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
English text on every page of it says &amp;quot;The Progressors&amp;quot;. We know it&#039;s weird.--[[User:Saganatsu|Saganatsu]] 12:54, 10 June 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wouldn&#039;t it be better to rename the chapter pages to include ME#. Example: &#039;&#039;&#039;Sword Art Online:ME9:Monochrome Concerto&#039;&#039;&#039; I mean now that Rondo has continued, so will Monochrome Concerto. It will avoid clashing in the future since you&#039;re probably gonna insert the same include tags as you have in First Chapter of Rondo and then the page name conflict with the side story, y&#039;know. Plus it will become easier to categorize the ME chapters and compile them in the Material Editions volume page when they&#039;re all done.

&lt;br /&gt;
So I&#039;ve been a long time visitor of Baka-Tsuki, but never bothered making an account. I&#039;ve been browsing a bit and was quite impressed with the To Aru Majutsu no Index PDFs. So, feeling obligated to do something, I took it upon myself to turn volume 1 of SAO into a PDF and put it onto MF. I hope that this is alright. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

You can download the PDF I made and see if it&#039;s acceptable. &lt;br /&gt;

=== Aincrad stories chronological compilation ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hi everyone.&lt;br /&gt;
With the onset of the anime, I thought it would be nice to have all the Aincrad stories in chronological order, so I took the time to make one, please get the PDFs and EPUBs here &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

== Congrats ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just wanted to thank all you guys for working hard and translating the SAO series.&lt;br /&gt;
Now that nearly everything is translated I wanted to ask, how far along is the novel in Japan? Cause when I try to look it up I cant read the pages cause they&#039;re all in Japanese D:&lt;br /&gt;
And is the &amp;quot;cradle of the moon&amp;quot; chapter going to be translated or not, cause from what I read it&#039;s included in the Alicization arc.&lt;br /&gt;
If it is I think it should be removed from the page, as everything else is 100% and this is the only non-translated part so it sorta ruins it when you scroll down and see everything.&lt;br /&gt;
Thanks again to all the translators and editors! --[[User:Mufarasu|Mufarasu]] 13:31, 16 June 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If it&#039;s removed. It could be more easily forgotten or shelved indefinitely. And besides, the next volume is coming out within a month, and there are other side stories you still haven&#039;t seen translated. Patience is a virtue.

== Anime ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The anime ep1 was... AWESOME! They really stuck to the story, and now, since I saw the ending of ep 1 I can say for sure that the anime will encompass Vol 1, 2 and Aria at the very least. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  15:09, 7 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

The music is done by Yuki Kajiura. YUKI KAJIURA man! Her works are EPIC. You could practically feel the fear and desperation in the air as well as Kirito&#039;s determination to live. AWESOME! [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - --[[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  15:13, 7 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

Yeah. It really is. I can&#039;t wait for the next one. It was so excruciatingly painful the last few hours before it came online. And yet, it was worth the wait.

Hold on, the anime will be going for about 26 episodes, with one episode per week, holy crap that&#039;s half a year, we need to wait half a year to see the end! [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] - [[User_talk:Draeke|Talk]] - 02:16, 13 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Better than having the story butchered or cut short in the middle. I&#039;ve always thought 12-13 eps was too little. Besides, the wait will make it all the more worthwhile. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  12:59, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Very true, I feel that if they released them all at once, I would die before I got to watch any. Although, I am actually quite worried, mainly about the few disconnects in the story, sure they have a chance to correct them, but I want things to progress along with the novels, such as Asuna, I have this bad feeling that they are going to try to get them together right away, which I believe would make things worse. Also the others, if they try to make a harem ending, or some kind of ending where it is unclear who Kazuto ends up with, that will piss me off. Waiting avidly for the new episode. [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] - [[User_talk:Draeke|Talk]] - 13:08, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

Oh hey, there is the raw. [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] - [[User_talk:Draeke|Talk]] - 13:09, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Urgh. Well, ep 2 is okay, I guess. But I don&#039;t like the fact that they removed so much. It&#039;s like the depth of the story has been filled in till the plot becomes shallow (kinda like how one fills in a perfectly good water well). [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  14:20, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m proficient enough in &#039;&#039;&#039;verbal&#039;&#039;&#039; japanese. Plus it helps to read the novel. Damn it&#039;s like they summarized the whole side story. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  14:28, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Really? Dang, I had thought they would spend at least three to four episodes on Aria, but you seem to be implying that they end it in one, maybe two. [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] - [[User_talk:Draeke|Talk]] - 14:32, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sorry to burst your bubble... but they ended Aria in one ep. And they cut out a lot of stuff. This is why I hate story butchering. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  14:38, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wow, well, based off of this pace, they may very well include volumes 3 and 4, well, I&#039;ll watch it no matter what, but I hope they keep to the story. [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] - [[User_talk:Draeke|Talk]] - 14:46, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There&#039;s no point if the anime is a mere summarization of the LN! It&#039;s like draining the juice out of an orange and forcing others to eat just the soft inner-skin. Well... it was okay for those who haven&#039;t read the LN especially Kirito&#039;s really cool part, but I don&#039;t like it that they cut all the rest of the plot (don&#039;t worry I&#039;m not gonna spoil it). If you squeeze the plot too much it ruins it. Sigh, and they stuck to the plot with Accel World so I was looking forward and hoping... Well lets hope they do better next ep. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  14:57, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I have not seen the episode yet, so I can not say too much, but remember that Accel World had some things that were missing as well, not so much the plot, but things that helped pull things together. [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] - [[User_talk:Draeke|Talk]] - 15:02, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And there is a point, and the point is the orange, it is the taste of the orange, the feel of the orange, the experience of eating the orange, whether it be juice, fruit, or some viscous substance consisting of orange, orange is orange, and it tastes like orange. [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] - [[User_talk:Draeke|Talk]] - 15:07, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
True for the first. False for the second. The inner skin of an orange itself doesn&#039;t taste like orange you know. I&#039;m talking about that thin white skin you see after you peel off the thick outer orange colored skin. You know, the one that holds the inner juiciness together. Besides, I&#039;m saying it&#039;s okay. It&#039;s just that I don&#039;t like the fact that they removed all that good stuff. You&#039;ll know what I&#039;m talking about when the subs are out. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  15:14, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Alright, I was just trying to get my point across, I will be sure to watch it, and I may be disappointed, but I also might not, who knows? And for that second one, the white stuff does taste like orange, at least a little bit. [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] - [[User_talk:Draeke|Talk]] - 15:20, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Like drops from a full bottle, true. And don&#039;t worry, I understand. Soon, you&#039;ll understand what I&#039;m talking about as well. I&#039;ll explain in detail once the subs are out. That way you won&#039;t get spoiled and can look forward to it. The ep 2 is good, but it could have been much better. That&#039;s my stance. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  15:37, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Personnaly , I think Aria was made in the anime and cut in that way just to help the new comers with SAO to understand more about Kirito and not to give the whole SS scenario. 	[[User:Eldivah|Eldivah]] 16:05, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hmm. Come to think of it. That might be it. I mean there was a slight conflict between the stories of the Aria SS and the main story aka volume 1. See a few sections above if you want to know/be spoiled. I&#039;ll explain after the sub is out, but if you take into account what was needed to be done to fix that discrepancy then. Yes, I see. If it&#039;s that reason then it&#039;s alright somewhat, I guess. But there are a few parts that didn&#039;t need to be removed even if that were the case. Still, I&#039;m warming up to the ep 2 now. I suppose time heals all wounds isn&#039;t an exaggeration after all. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  16:27, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

I will agree to that as well, and a question, did they include Argo as well in episode 2? Because she is one of my favorite characters. [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] - [[User_talk:Draeke|Talk]] - 16:29, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Do I? Probably not, I suppose if I did want to know right away I would have just watched the raw to see if her name came up anywhere, so don&#039;t say anything, and when are the subs coming? [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] - [[User_talk:Draeke|Talk]] - 16:45, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Wow, that was something else, yes, content was thrown out, Diabel was not as bad as he was in the novel, and Kirito was awesome, but mainly when he was berating the other beta testers, that laugh, wonderful, that was awesome, Egil is cool, I could very easily see the foundation that they put for the future, and finally, holy crap, they are jumping straight to Red-Nosed Reindeer? That is a massive jump. And poor Argo, completely cast aside. [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] - [[User_talk:Draeke|Talk]] - 17:38, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
See. And besides, Red nosed reindeer was next chronologically. I mean Rondo and Crescendo aren&#039;t completely published yet. Well there&#039;s not much in Reindeer so let&#039;s hope they don&#039;t cut things out this time. At least cutting down Kirito and Asuna&#039;s time in Aria serves to address the problem I mentioned in [[Talk:Sword_Art_Online#It&#039;s weird]]. But why&#039;d they cut down the whole plot Diabel cooked up along with Argo&#039;s scenes? I wanted to see Kiriemon at least. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  17:51, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I agree completely, but I also thoroughly enjoyed that episode. Aria did have a really deep story, and they just brushed over it. Oh well, still good, lets hope that they don&#039;t just kill everyone off in the Black Cats of the Full Moon immediately, and keep them around for at least one episode before they die.

I think that&#039;s pretty simple , letting the plot of Diabel and Argo must introduce a friend character to the main one , but never use him again , that&#039;s a big problem for the public, next , the plot of Diabel about the Anneal Blade will just drag a lot of questions if they don&#039;t add the whole story about the quest to obtain it , explain the whole thing about the Beta-Test , why Diabel knows of Kirito etc , and then that will be 5 episodes of things unrelated to the main plot or to Kirito&#039;s mental state and settings [[User:Eldivah|Eldivah]] 17:59, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

That might be pretty hard to handle a perspective drawing with a cloak ,how to put it , if she was just wearing a normal outfit or if the rapier was outside the cloak , we won&#039;t have this strange feeling , but , they had to draw it like the rapier comming across the cloak and this ended by having the impression of the rapier being stabbed into Asuna instead.

Umm, okay, where did you learn about this? And if so, then how the heck do they compress Red-Nosed Reindeer into one episode, I could see that stretch three or four episodes. [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] - [[User_talk:Draeke|Talk]] - 19:16, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I couldn&#039;t, if they did ALL of Aria (granted they took some stuff out) in one episode then doing the Red-Nosed Reindeer is more than doable in one episode. I wonder tho if they will do the Black Cats portion and the revival portion separate or together, since they could do it as a current event or as a flashback. That said since it seems they are going with one episode for everything like the Murder Case in episode 5 and Sicilia story in episode 4, then its likely they are gonna use the second half for ALO, which all things considering isn&#039;t that bad. I wouldn&#039;t want a full series for ALO (considering its the worst arc imo) and the ending is more conclusive then the end of the Aincard arc.

Tag my name? In any case i got my information from episode titles, i was told this from a friend but i have no reason to doubt it as i knew the episode 3 title was Red-Nosed Reindeer since before episode 1, episode 4 is supposedly Black Swordsman and such and such. As for the timeline, the anime is simply going chronologically based of the novels events, since after all considering the way volume 1 and 2 are its best to do it chronologically, i&#039;m just curious as to how they are going to use flashbacks as they could see animate &amp;quot;First Day&amp;quot; but as a flashback.

I copied his user data as well as the post time/date from history and added it. And duh, there is a high chance of volume 2 stories&#039; episode conversions being named after their chapters.

Man, they had to change so much in the second episode. I think it would have been much better if they used the actual ending of Aria, and actually show Kirito in the second floor during the sunset and all that.[[User:Jasou|Jasou]] 12:10, 15 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

== Question about Frequency of releases ==&lt;br /&gt;

I&#039;m just wondering, what&#039;s the general frequency of the releases?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:I um... watched the first episode of SAO anime, and then I suddenly flung myself to read all the translated LN for SAO... and just finished reading everything except for volume 10 (untranslated), some of the lower sidestories, and material editions...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::that said, I&#039;m just wondering...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::Given that the releases have been in the order of - April, August, December (for 2 2/3 years) and then switched suddenly to february, July...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::am I correct in deducing the approximate date of Volume 11 is around December(2012)-February (2013) then?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::::Personally, I think it will be closer to February of 2013, but hey, who knows, it is kind of tough to project a solid timeline, so I really can&#039;t say when I think it will be. [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] - [[User_talk:Draeke|Talk]] - 18:02, 12 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

== Adding Reference? ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While I was translating SAO into Vietnamese version, I happened to find out that the name of Klein&#039;s guild has a meaning behind it (it actually refers to a way of commanding army of Takeda Shingen), so I wanna add a specific reference for it (I get this info from a book, and haven&#039;t found any website mention it, so I guess I&#039;ll just write it down). But do I need a permission to do that? And if I do, where can I get it? I have also checked the RAW to make sure Kanjis are correct anw.

Is anyone here planning to work on Progressive Vol 1? I recently got my ordered copy, and as expected it covers from Aria to Rondo, so I understand if there&#039;s a lack of incentive to translate it considering that the Aria SS has already been translated here and Pryun is still translating Rondo. However, while the Progressive chapters seem to stick pretty close to the original web versions, there are still clear differences, as evidenced by how Aria in Progressive is divided into 15 parts instead of the 20 in web version and Rondo has 14 instead of 40. (Rondo is still about 300 pages long though, so I&#039;m not sure if the author just reorganized it or not.) I was just wondering how the issue was going to be dealt with.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Also, if there are plans to eventually work on Progressive, could I add a sub-section for it on the main page and upload the illustrations I scanned from vol 1?

Can you guys add a page for character name&#039;s pronunciation ? It&#039;s hard to talk to others while each got his/her own way of speaking names :P&lt;br /&gt;

::You can do it the IPA way, like this: London /ˈlʌndən/ -Anon&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::That won&#039;t be completely accurate. English and Japanese have different ways to pronouncing certain sounds like T, D, etc. Furthermore, few people know the phonetic alphabet in it&#039;s entirety and certainly not those with English as second alphabet. Better to sound it out for them. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  08:03, 19 June 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Most names should be straightforward in pronunciation, I assume the names with issues are Lyfa and Sinon? In that case:&lt;br /&gt;
* Lyfa - Ree-fa in JP version, but English changed R to L so Lee-fa is acceptable, just not Lai-fa.&lt;br /&gt;
* Sinon - Shi-non, just like her real name Shino.&lt;br /&gt;
* Eugeo - Yoo-gee-o.&lt;br /&gt;

==Phantom Bullet: Chapter 7==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m going to point this out here and hopefully the Admin, Supervisor or one of the translators can clear up my confusion. Volume 4&#039;s story ends with &amp;quot;Chapter 7&amp;quot; and Volume 5&#039;s story begins with &amp;quot;Chapter 7&amp;quot;. Is this officially on purpose, as in the way it&#039;s printed?

== Notes on {Alfheim Online} Norse Mythology References ==&lt;br /&gt;
Hey,As most of you have probably figured out, &amp;quot;Alfheim online&amp;quot; is basically one big reference to Norse Mythology. Therefore, I will put in a few definitions/explanations. Note that the Norse viking raiders used a completely different runic system (that&#039;s the proper term for &amp;quot;alphabet&amp;quot;), so spellings are rough. I have also changed the spellings of some words used to be closer to what I think is proper.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. &amp;quot;Alfheim&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Alf&amp;quot; is a shortened version of &amp;quot;Alfar&amp;quot;, which is the Norse version of elves. Norse elves have characteristics that are very similar to fairies from other mythologies/folktales, therefore &amp;quot;alfar&amp;quot; can be interpreted as either elf or fairy. &amp;quot;heim&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;heimr&amp;quot; means world or realm.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. &amp;quot;Yģģdrasil&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
In Norse mythology, the &amp;quot;Yģģdrasil&amp;quot; (meaning &amp;quot;Odin&#039;s Horse&amp;quot;, &#039;Yģģu&#039; being another name for Odin. pronounce &#039;ģ&#039; with a rasping sound) was a friggin&#039; huge tree at the center of the earth, the roots of which held the whole place together. Curled around the roots of the world tree was this friggin&#039; huge dragon called the &amp;quot;niddhoģ&amp;quot;. The Niddhoģ gnawed at the base of the tree and once it succeded, &amp;quot;Ragnarök&amp;quot; would occur (see below).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3. &amp;quot;Ragnarök&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
Basically, end of the world. World is encased in fire and ice, blah blah blah (wouldn&#039;t the fire just melt the ice then get put out by the resulting water, causing nothing to happen?). After the world is encased in fire and ice, Odin blows the crap out of it. Then he makes a new world tree and a new Earth, and the whole lot happens again.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
4. &amp;quot;Aesir&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;Æsir&lt;br /&gt;
Basically, the norse gods. Means &amp;quot;elevated ones&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5. &amp;quot;Odin&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;Óòin&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
King of the Æsir. Presumably, went to some well to drink, then was told that if he drank from the well, he would lose an eye but gain infinite wisdom. And he did. His job description is basically &amp;quot;Implement Ragnarök and beat the crap out of giants. Repeat.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6. &amp;quot;Thor&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;Þòrr&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
Lightning Æsir. Enjoys blowing up giants. Has a big ol&#039; friggin&#039; hammer called Mjölnir.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7. &amp;quot;Thyrm&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;Þyrm&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
King of the giants. Likes killing stuff, especialy the æsir. He fails at it. Dies a lot and comes back later. Mostly the Norse myths have to do with Odin or Thor beating the tar out of him, again and again and again. This is the kind of stuff Vikings like to hear, I guess.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
8. &amp;quot;Freyja&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;Freyyá&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
Goddess of love, sex, and killing/death (So in other words, the Viking&#039;s favorite mythological character). Also Odin&#039;s wife (Man that sucks, Klein! Better luck next time). Creator and leader of the Valykries (Really pretty women that sweep up dead vikings and take them to Valhalla, a place with infinite food and access to Jötunheimr, so they can pretty much eat, kill, and hang out with pretty women for eternity. Vikings like these people a lot too.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
9. &amp;quot;Jötunheimr&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
Land of the giants, literally. Þyrm and his minions are found here. The æsir and all dead vikings go here to kill giants forever. One of the Vikings&#039; favorite places.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think that sums it up. If there&#039;s anything I forgot that was mentioned somewhere in Alfheim Online, please look it up and edit it in or leave an edit asking for definitions.&lt;br /&gt;
Also sorry for messed up editing causing this post to appear twice. Gomen!&lt;br /&gt;

:Two minor notes:  1.  The Norse Mythology References section seems to be doubled above/below itself.  2.  Most sections look accurate, but regarding &#039;After the world is encased in fire and ice, Odin blows the crap out of it. Then he makes a new world tree and a new Earth, and the whole lot happens again.&#039; (from section 3, about Ragnarök):  isn&#039;t Odin killed by Fenrir in Ragnarök?  (Before being avenged by his son.)  And wasn&#039;t the Earth made by the frost giants Bergelmir and his wife, out of Ymir&#039;s body?  I unfortunately don&#039;t see where the ideas of cycling Ragnaröks or Odin as an eternal god of creation come from.  -[[User:Multipartite|Multipartite]] ([[User talk:Multipartite|talk]]) 17:27, 14 April 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

== About the alicization character names........ ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I prefer the earlier ones(Ronie, Tizei, Solterina, etc.) than the new ones(Ronye, Tiezé, Soltiliena,etc.) since the former looks more natural, especially of Ronie&#039;s.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:Well, the current spellings are apparently more accurate in terms of pronunciation. I&#039;ll be honest, when I first read &amp;quot;Ronie&amp;quot;, in my head I heard &amp;quot;Ronny&amp;quot;. As for the &amp;quot;look&amp;quot; of the names, that&#039;s only a side-affect of having read one first, and then looking at the other. That&#039;s pretty subjective.

So shouldn&#039;t these be included as being part of the &amp;quot;Web Version&amp;quot; section?&lt;br /&gt;

:If you wish to know the translations, just look here on the talk page... Translations are available for all illustrations (minus 1 or two), but the images have just yet to actually be edited with those translations, mostly so that accurate translations can be agreed upon, that will actually fit....

:Yeah, just the text on left and right side of the cover should be translated. Like this [http://www.baka-tsuki.org/project/images/f/fb/Index_v01_000.jpg one]. &lt;br /&gt;

== Bullet Lines ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m an editor for the English SAO wiki and recently published 2 new articles for both Bullet Circles and Bullet Lines. However, I had a couple of questions to ask. 1.The terms &amp;quot;Bullet Circle&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;bullet Line&amp;quot; were separate in volume 5, but are more or less merged in volume 6. Is this the case in the original or was this caused by different translators working on the 2 volumes? 2. We&#039;ve had a little dispute over how the sniper advantage actually works. Some of us interpret it as &amp;quot;The Bullet Line does not appear at all for the sniper&#039;s first shot&amp;quot;, while others interpret it as &amp;quot;Players can&#039;t see a sniper&#039;s first Bullet Line because they need to know where to look for it first&amp;quot;. Could you please confirm which of these is true? Thank you --[[User:Gsimenas|Gsimenas]] ([[User talk:Gsimenas|talk]]) 05:42, 19 May 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:I&#039;m not the original translators, but for the first point, I took a look at the source and, yes, there were a few parts where &amp;quot;Bullet Lines&amp;quot; were supposed to have been &amp;quot;Bullet Circles&amp;quot;. I think I&#039;ve corrected all instances, but if you spot more, by all means please post again.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:For the second point, I don&#039;t think even they would be able to sort that out for you - it doesn&#039;t seem like the kind of thing you can clarify by retranslating, if you get what I mean. Personally, I think it&#039;s &amp;quot;The system doesn&#039;t show the target the sniper&#039;s first Bullet Line &#039;&#039;at all&#039;&#039;&amp;quot; rather than &amp;quot;Players can&#039;t see a sniper&#039;s first Bullet Line because they need to know where to look for it first&amp;quot;, and I waved Death Gun&#039;s dodge off as either already knowing where she was because he saw her while using his invisibility cloak, or that &amp;quot;Hypersense&amp;quot; skill (Kirito dodged Death Gun&#039;s own first shot, remember?). Though, this doesn&#039;t really explain Sinon&#039;s own comment about checking through the system, unless it was just a &amp;quot;mind scrambling for answers&amp;quot; thing... -[[User:AKAAkira|Akira]] ([[User talk:AKAAkira|talk]]) 22:44, 23 May 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::Thank you for clearing that inconsistency out :) . And guess we&#039;ll just have to stick with an assumption on how that system works. Unless the anime gets another sequel and we can get visual proof on whether they can see the Bullet Line or not :D (though even in this case it&#039;s not a 100% guarantee that they will depict the concept in an unambiguous way)--[[User:Gsimenas|Gsimenas]] ([[User talk:Gsimenas|talk]]) 14:57, 29 May 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

== Chapter 4 inconsistencies ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As far as I understand, the chapter begins on the 6th of March/3rd Month, however, the graduation contest that is supposed to take place just 2 days later at the end of the chapter it is said to take place &amp;quot;At the end of March—&amp;quot;. Also &amp;quot;Eugeo and I would be taking part in the advancement exams for elite swordsmen next month.&amp;quot;; &amp;quot;That&#039;s because we were the top 12 students during the promotion exam at the end of the month, and our future roles as elite swordsmen trainees were confirmed.&amp;quot; - are these exams supposed to be separate, because I can&#039;t understand how they can say that their positions as elite swordsmen are already guaranteed when the exam is only going to take place later that month? --[[User:Gsimenas|Gsimenas]] ([[User talk:Gsimenas|talk]]) 14:50, 29 May 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

== Something strange on the Android App ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Not 100% sure this is the right place for this, but...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There is something strange going on with this LN series in the Android app. The &#039;Cradle of the Moon&#039; Side Story chapter(s) is listed a total of 6 times under three separate headings of &#039;Side Stories&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Similarly, I have two header listings for &#039;Sword Art Online: Material Editions&#039;, 3 for &#039;Volume 1&#039; (two of which seem to be Progressive, the other just has a chapter called &#039;Enlarge&#039; which doesn&#039;t seem to contain any data) and a total of 5 &#039;Side Stories&#039; headers. The 12 main headers (LNs 1-12) seem to be fine, as do all of the other LNs I have marked as Favourites in the app.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Anyone got any ideas/fixes?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It&#039;s what happens when people play around with how the sections are listed. The old listing persist because the App downloads and stores the information in a cache, but the &#039;new&#039; listing also pop up showing as duplicates. The easiest fix is to purge the volume cache (touch and hold) then refresh the volume. You could even do this to the entire LN listing from your watch list and run an update check to pick up how things are listed now. Oh...also don&#039;t forget to sign your posts. Helps track who is having these problems in case someone on the dev team wants to talk about it. [[User:Unknownadd|Unknownadd]] ([[User talk:Unknownadd|talk]]) 21:35, 15 June 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Sorry about not signing, but since I&#039;m not registered here yet I wasn&#039;t sure it would help anyway. ;)&lt;br /&gt;
:Is there somewhere that I can make suggestions for the app? I&#039;ve just used the Options version of &#039;clear novel cache&#039;, since doing it on a volume-by-volume basis didn&#039;t seem to work, and it wiped out EVERYTHING - My favourites, &#039;read&#039; chapters, everything, so now I have to try and remember what I have read and what I haven&#039;t, what I was planning to read, etc... seems a little excessive. ~AerosAtar&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Volume 12+ Translation? ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I don&#039;t want to sound impatient, but has volume 12 been put on hiatus? I remember volume 10 and 11 being translated at a fast and steady pace, but 12 hasn&#039;t even had a word translated for 2 months.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Tap is translating vol 12, You can check it out on his blog.&lt;br /&gt;
Blog&#039;s link is on his profile. He will upload it to baka-tsuki once translation and major editing is completed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Exactly. now, let&#039;s drop with the &#039;how&#039;s TL status doing?&#039; questions please..&lt;br /&gt;

Yes, is volume 13 translations progressing? I can&#039;t see any (translators&#039;) name next to the volume 13 chapters in the &#039;Registration&#039; page.

&lt;br /&gt;
Well, the project is likely to be discontinued soon. However, Volume 13 is being translated by tap (and he&#039;s about half way though, too.) You can read them on his blog, if you wish. They&#039;re not here on Baka-Tsuki, because he usually takes some time to edit and fix up errors, before posting them here.

Do you know if Yen Press has a good reputation of accurate translations, works fast and won&#039;t be likely to drop the project? If B-T&#039;s going to drop it, might as well know how fast they release each volume. --[[User:Casare|Casare]] ([[User talk:Casare|talk]]) 16:32, 16 October 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

AFAIK reputation is normal (Spice and Wolf), so 3-4 volumes per year are expected. More information can be found on forum [[User:Xaliuss|Xaliuss]] ([[User talk:Xaliuss|talk]]) 03:23, 17 October 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

== Raious Antinous ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I doubt anyone will argue with the conjecture that the eldest son of a 3rd class noble family, Raious Antinous, is a huge dick.&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;d like to point out the significance of his second name, Antinous.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For those of you who&#039;ve read the Oddysey, by Homer (being the sequel to the Iliad), you will understand immediately what I&#039;m talking about.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the Odyssey, Antinous is a character who is attempting to secure Odysseus&#039; bride, Penelope, for himself. Odysseus is assumed to be dead at this time. Antinous is the son of a high-ranking noble who is attempting to marry Penelope, and it is insinuated that, given the chance, he would attempt to rape her. He gets duly killed by Odysseus, who is understandably angry. Actually Odysseus kills him along with several HUNDRED other suitors (BADASS ALERT). ANNNNYways...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Anyone else notice the similarity? Cause i do.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Number of volumes ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;ve noticed over the past week that updaters can&#039;t agree on how many volumes:  Some people update it to 13 and then someone comes in behind them and reverses the update... I&#039;ve seen this happen at least three times this month so far.  I don&#039;t want to start an update war or anything, but I think there ARE 13 volumes now in the main series (not even counting the SAO Progressive): there are certainly 13 volumes listed in section 5... or are we not counting volume 13 since it&#039;s release date is next month?  [[User:Zehd|Zehd]] ([[User talk:Zehd|talk]]) 23:48, 11 July 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think number of currently published volumes must be present, and it will be updated after release date. Looking at this number any user can estimate length of the series and translation progress, other numbers can be misleading.

Bloody Yen Press. Now I&#039;ll never read the ending. If they finish translation at all, it will take about 3-4 or so years before they catch up with B-T... I so hope there will be still some &#039;underground&#039; translation going -_- [[User:Antanaru|Antanaru]] ([[User talk:Antanaru|talk]]) 08:01, 11 September 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

Quick comment on your translation for ALO. While I haven&#039;t seen any official English translation for its name, the Japanese Wikipedia calls it Alfheim Online. Personally, I agree with it since it follows the Mythology theme, with Álfar meaning elves in Norse Mythology, making Alfheim mean Elves&#039; (Alf) Home (Heim). The reason I think it follows the Mythology theme is that I believe Yggdrasil makes an appearance (I couldn&#039;t find where I read this, and I have bad memory at best, so possibly wrong), Kirito&#039;s class becomes a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spriggan Spriggan], Lyfa (or whatever it ends up being) is a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sylph Sylph], and Yui is a Navigation Pixie&amp;lt;!--Quite the specific race if you ask me--&amp;gt;. Hope this helps. ~EnigmaticRepose&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:In the Japanese raws of volume 3 (page 61), the name is written in English: &amp;quot;ALfheim Online&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;

An improved version of the 《Sword Skills》 system of the now defunct Sword Art Online, implemented in 《Alfheim Online》. Each weapon has its own 《Skill Tree》. Brought forth drastic change to 《ALO》 which was previously dominated by long-range 《Magic》.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;Different from the 《Sword Skills》 in 《SAO》, OSS are not skills predefined by the system but rather skills that can be invented and registered by the player. However, in order to register such skills, players are required to perform them &amp;quot;without system support at a speed normally impossible without system assist&amp;quot;. This somewhat contradictory strict requirement is the main reason why there&#039;s only few players who posses OSS.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;The OSS system supports a function known as 《Sword Skill Inheritance》. Players who successfully register an OSS are able to pass down a single-use 《Skill Manual》 to other players. Because the development of an OSS is extremely difficult, 《Skill Manuals》 for OSS, especially those that contain over-5-hits special moves, are currently the most expensive items in ALO.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

:Regarding the &amp;quot;color tweak&amp;quot;, I don&#039;t think it was necessary, the colors look out of place. IMHO, translations should stick to giving the same experience as the native speaker would have, which includes not changing the illustrations beyond replacing the text.

Is it Tactics Guide or Tactical Guide? I need someone I am familiar with to recheck the second pic and onwards&#039; translations especially the names (preferably BeginnerXP or Pryun or Teh Ping, well if you don&#039;t have it checked by the time I&#039;m awake I&#039;m gonna put it in mistakes or not, I&#039;ll have the PSD file so correcting will be a cinch). I&#039;m almost done cleaning all the pictures though, but I gotta sleep now. Will do the small remaining portion after I awake around about 6-8 hrs in the future. Also is &#039;&#039;&#039;a senior and Xth seat&#039;&#039;&#039; meaning a &#039;&#039;&#039;senior (aka senpai) as well as a Xth seat&#039;&#039;&#039; or a &#039;&#039;&#039;senior Xth seat&#039;&#039;&#039;?

Hmm. I carefully romanized the names 1 katakana at a time. Is it Uoro or Ouro? Cause the katagana are arranged as Uoro, yet Median translated it as Ouro. Unless there is some special reason?

But I can&#039;t do that with pictures now, can I? Anyways thanks for the j-text. I just put it through and found that it was &amp;quot;mada mada&amp;quot;.

::I meant that I would have expected someone familiar with Japanese to recognize the phrase from one of its common translations and, based off the context, realize there might be a more appropriate choice in a similar way to how Pryun was thinking.  This would be independent of knowing what the original text was.  Being able to recognize this sort of thing can really improve your effectiveness as an editor as you would be better able to let the translators know of a possible mistake.

:::How could I when I need to romanjify in order to understand? I guess you overestimated my abilities. The phrase fit the circumstances, even if it was wrong. And whenever I sense a mistake I immediately ask for the j-text, run it through google translate, check both the romanji and the translation (Just checking the translation isn&#039;t good enough but the romanji helps a lot), examine the sentence in both languages and then give suggestions. I&#039;ve helped translators a lot via this method. I do intend to learn written Japanese as well. But pretty soon I&#039;ll probably be starting my Masters. So it&#039;ll have to be delayed.

::::Then I recommend you to spend a bit of time to learn Hiragana &amp;amp; Katakana, since you like anime &amp;amp; manga, knowing how to read both kana helps greatly.

&lt;br /&gt;
:If you read manga, especially those shounen manga, all kanji will have hirakana characters (furigana) telling readers how it&#039;s read, it helps a lot to use that reading to look up the kanji, rather than tracking the kanji via radicals or stroke counts. Learning kanji properly would require a large amount of time (years), so it&#039;s entirely down to each person&#039;s determination. But kana is simple enough like A-B-C, so it should be a good foundation to have for anyone who enjoys Japanese media. -- [[User:BeginnerXP|BeginnerXP]] - [[User_talk:BeginnerXP|Talk]] 10:44, 7 August 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

Judging by everything, it should be the scene in Interlude II, where Kirito hands the bag of pies to Ronie, and tells her to share it with her class mates. If you can&#039;t translate the whole thing, try translating bits and pieces to get an idea of where in the text this is.

Quoting: &#039;&#039;If you mean the text in volume 7, the image quality is too poor for me to want to spend my time on. But for volume 8, I already did all of them, just I didn&#039;t add them to wiki, you can get the text from my SAO8 PDF I post in forums and edit the images accordingly, you also might need to correct some mistakes as I didn&#039;t want to bother Pryun to look at them with his busy schedule. -- BeginnerXP - Talk 05:22, 7 June 2012 (CDT)&#039;&#039; ([[User_talk:Zero2001/Archive_1#SAO_Pics|Thank God I archive my talk page discussions]]).

Besides, considering the amount of work done during scanlation, other than text translation (ie: cleaning, leveling, cloning, etc) I don&#039;t think it&#039;s unfair especially since I&#039;m not taking the credit for the translation, only the editing and photoshopping.

Plenty of times in the past it&#039;s happened that after I photoshopped the pics, then and &#039;&#039;only then&#039;&#039; people started pointing out the mistakes. So that&#039;s why I asked. You should know me well enough BeginnerXP, I hold no ill will in such matters. My apologies. I&#039;ll be more careful next time. It seems as you&#039;re still conflicted on the issue, so when you guys decide on the spelling of the names then please tell me. I&#039;ll change them on the double.

::::I followed the link and heard the pronounciation. Here&#039;s my two chips: Indeed it sounds like Tiz&#039;&#039;&#039;ay&#039;&#039;&#039; or Tiz&#039;&#039;&#039;ei&#039;&#039;&#039;. Google translate types ティゼー phonetically as Tizē therefore Tizei would be closer in my opinion. Also, Tizay is short form of &amp;quot;It is ay&amp;quot; (ie: Acting as a confirmation to someone Else&#039;s question.) [http://lastnames.myheritage.com/last-name/Tizei Tizei], on the other hand is a name. But I&#039;ll leave the choice to you guys.

==== Volume 11 ====&lt;br /&gt;

It tastes better than the stuff at the Prancing Deer Inn, Ronye, Tiese.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;A young boy lost within the mysterious «Undersworld». In order to escape from here, he is searching for a «System Console».&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Ronye: Wah, really?!&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;A «Valet Trainee» that aims to become an «Integrity Knight» and serves as Kirito&#039;s assistant.&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Tiese: Erm, we were the ones who made it, so whether it fits your tastes or not...&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;A «Valet Trainee» that aims to become an «Integrity Knight» and serves as Eugeo&#039;s assistant.&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Eugeo: Kirito, if you already helped out that much, stop trying to ditch us!&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;The first inhabitant Kirito met in this world. Became «Elite Swordsman Trainee» at «North Centoria Master Swords Academy» with Kirito.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
Image:Sword Art Online Vol 11 - 004-005.jpg|Ronye: No... Help... Help, Eugeo-senpai! Eugeo-senpai - !&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Tiese: N-no...no...NO...!&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Eugeo: Uh...gu...ooh...! I, I...!&lt;br /&gt;
Image:Sword Art Online Vol 11 - 006-007.jpg|Eugeo: ...Alice...? Is that you...? Are you...Alice...?&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Alice: I am the Overseer of Centoria, an Integrity Knight of the Axiom Church - Alice Synthesis Thirty.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;An «Integrity Knight» who protects order in the «Human World».&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
Image:Sword Art Online Vol 11 - 008.jpg|&#039;&#039;&#039;«North Centoria Master Sword Academy and Integrity Knights»&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Located in the center of the Underworld’s «Human World» is the largest city of the Human World, the «Capital Centoria». It is enclosed within a perfect circular rampart with a diameter of ten kilol, and possesses a population of over twenty thousand. The solid walls in the shape of an X divide the circular city into four equal parts, and these separating walls are called the «Eternal Wall». «North Centoria», «East Centoria», «South Centoria», and «West Centoria» are what the divided municipalities are called; they are the capitals of the four empires which divide and rule over the vast Human World.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;In the middle of the «Capital» is the pure white grand tower that lies at the heart of the Human World, the Axiom Church’s «Central Cathedral». The tower is so tall its zenith is hazy and can&#039;t be seen, and the square grounds of the church are enclosed by a high wall, so it is impossible to see what lies inside. The «Eternal Wall» that divides the city of Centoria starts from the Cathedral, and stretches outward in four directions. Within the highest ruling system «Axion Church» there are officers known as «Integrity Knights», and these knights that maintain the order of the world are the Sacred Task that all the swordsmen of the world aspire to.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;If one passes the entrance exam of the swordsmen training institution «North Centoria Master Sword Academy» in order to aim for the rank of «Integrity Knight», they become a «Beginner Trainee Swordsman» in public. The Trainees train themselves diligently over the period of one year, and at the end of every academy year, they aim for becoming swordsmen of even higher rank during the promotion exam. The final objective of the academy students is to participate in the «Northern Empire Swordsmanship Tournament». Kirito and Eugeo are aiming to win the competition even higher than that, the «Four Empires Unity Tournament» that is the highest swordsmanship tournament in the Human World, where the winners are appointed as honorable «Integrity Knights».&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Notes:&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;lt;s&amp;gt;Not 100% sure on Kirito&#039;s comment, that&#039;s the best I could guess&lt;br /&gt;
*Reason for changing Ronie&#039;s first comment&#039;s comma to exclamation point was since &amp;quot;Wow, really?&amp;quot; seems to be used with too much sarcasm too often these days&lt;br /&gt;
*I&#039;m pretty sure there&#039;s a more eloquent way for Teiza to hint the gesture, but it&#039;s evading me at the moment&lt;br /&gt;
*Since 打ち can mean both &amp;quot;hit&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;reach&amp;quot;, a possible but slightly less likely different interpretation is: &amp;quot;Kirito, if it turns out that my fist can reach you, you don&#039;t have to run away, okay?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
**I peeked at what PROzess translated so far and...well, one word: context. Rather facepalm-worthy. As such, changed Eugeo&#039;s quote. But, Teiza&#039;s quote is somewhat confusing. Unless it&#039;s a case of &#039;&#039;extremely&#039;&#039; liberal context usage, I don&#039;t think she even uses that particular quote in-story. Can someone correct me?&amp;lt;/s&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
***Ronye says that bit, which explains why I didn&#039;t find &#039;&#039;Tiese&#039;&#039; it. And yup, another botched trans.&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;lt;s&amp;gt;Intros of the first pic are the same as the previous volume, except for the second half of Eugeo&#039;s&amp;lt;/s&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
*Also, not quite sure if it&#039;s &amp;quot;Elite Swordsman Trainee&amp;quot; or just &amp;quot;Elite Swordsman&amp;quot; - but then again, previous volumes had them interchanged, so maybe it doesn&#039;t matter?&lt;br /&gt;
*If anyone wants to dispute my interpretations, here&#039;s a quick dump of all kanji used in the first three pics: 君跳鹿亭優劣味私作口合打解今逃修剣学院上級士助僕君人界秩序守市域統括公理教会&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
As soon as these are fully translated I will photoshop them. The first pic is still incompletely translated at this point (only one of the character descriptions has been translated the others haven&#039;t, even I can tell).

:As this wiki lacks a flashy quote template, I&#039;ll just make do with pointing out my fifth bullet point in the notes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:On the other hand, I still suggest waiting until at least one other pair of eyes goes over them before actually using the translations. This was my first time, I&#039;m almost afraid to think how much I could&#039;ve messed it up. -[[User:AKAAkira|Akira]] ([[User talk:AKAAkira|talk]]) 16:50, 16 December 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I know the character descriptions for Kirito, Ronie and Teiza are already technically done in Vol 10, but I thought I&#039;d put up my own translation of them in case anyone wants to use it. (Feel free to comment or suggest changes.) Also, I intend to translate the story description on the fourth page, if nobody minds. --[[User:Eternal Dreamer|Eternal Dreamer]] ([[User talk:Eternal Dreamer|talk]]) 14:39, 22 December 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:For the record, I &#039;&#039;was&#039;&#039; planning to do it, but this is what I get for procrastination. ^^&#039; I did a quick proofread, though. -[[User:AKAAkira|Akira]] ([[User talk:AKAAkira|talk]]) 17:14, 24 December 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot; It tastes better than those prancing deers at the pavilion, &amp;quot; shouldn&#039;t it be &amp;quot;it tastes better than those at the Prancing Deer&#039;s Pavilion,&amp;quot;?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Yes, it should be. I didn&#039;t realize it was a name initially, which was why I was so confused. In volume 10 it was translated as &amp;quot;Jumping Deer Inn&amp;quot;, so I&#039;ll go with that for now. -[[User:AKAAkira|Akira]] ([[User talk:AKAAkira|talk]]) 17:14, 24 December 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Already, the story description is done on the fourth page. As for the location text on the map itself, it&#039;s the exact same as the one from Vol 10, so just copy it from there. --[[User:Eternal Dreamer|Eternal Dreamer]] ([[User talk:Eternal Dreamer|talk]]) 10:03, 24 December 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
:I don&#039;t know a thing about Japanese, but looking at the Raw images for the last image in both this vol and from vol 10, there&#039;s only one difference in regards to the location texts.. There&#039;s a spelling differentiation in the line where &amp;quot;Indomitable Wall&amp;quot; is.. It&#039;s the second character only though, so I&#039;m not really sure what that translates to... [[User:Rage|Rage]] ([[User talk:Rage|talk]]) 10:27, 7 January 2013 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
:My stubbornness made me look up the character XD... For some reason, Reki renamed the wall from 不屈の壁 (Indomitable Wall) to 不朽の壁 (Timeless Wall (according to Google Translate))... Could it be a typo on the behalf of one of the editors of the LN? or was it a hint regarding the story? [[User:Rage|Rage]] ([[User talk:Rage|talk]]) 12:30, 7 January 2013 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You can translate Ronie&#039;s comment to &amp;quot;Wah, really?&amp;quot;. It&#039;d sound more sincere that way -[[User:M.A.D|M.A.D]] - [[User_talk:M.A.D|Talk]] 22:55, 5 January 2013 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

==== Volume 12 ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Image:Sword Art Online Vol 12 - 002-003.jpg|Kirito: Eugeo, I&#039;ll stop the first attack somehow, so it&#039;s your job to get a strike in.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;A young boy lost within the mysterious «Virtual World», Underworld. In order to escape, he is searching for a «System Console».&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Eugeo: —Got it.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;The first inhabitant Kirito met in this world. Became «Elite Swordsman Trainee» at «North Centoria Master Swords Academy» with Kirito.&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Deusolbert Synthesis Seven: To bathe in the fires of this «Flame Bow» should have meant to become purified for two years. I see, it appears you truly possess the skills Knight Eldrie Thirty-one argued you had, despite being criminals.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;An Integrity Knight who uses the «Flame Bow».&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
Image:Sword Art Online Vol 12 - 004-005.jpg|Fanatio Synthesis Two: This is farewell, you young, foolish criminal. The light hidden inside this Heaven-Piercing Sword, I free from its shackles right now! —Release Recollection!&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;The Integrity Knights&#039; Deputy Head Knight who mastered the «Heaven-Piercing Sword».&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Kirito: Uooooh!&lt;br /&gt;
Image:Sword Art Online Vol 12 - 006-007.jpg|Kirito: I&#039;m Swordsman Trainee Kirito, and I want a fair swords match with Miss Changed Knight Alice!&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Alice Synthesis Thirty: —It&#039;s all right, your wicked hearts are such low things that I suppose you may try with that sword of yours.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;An Integrity Knight who wields the «Osmanthus Sword».&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
Image:Sword Art Online Vol 12 - 008.jpg|&#039;&#039;&#039;Central Cathedral&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Located at the middle of Underworld&#039;s «Human World» is its greatest city, «Capital Centoria». At the core of «Capital», the heart of the Human World itself, there exists the pure white superstructure, «Central Cathedral». The tower&#039;s zenith is at a height that peters out into obscurity, and the church&#039;s square grounds are surrounded by high walls; peeking inside is utterly impossible. The supreme body «Axiom Church», governing the Human World from «Central Cathedral», maintain peacekeepers named «Integrity Knights», and these knights that protect the order of the world are what every Trainee Swordsmen in the world yearn to become.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;The Cathedral is built with a hundred floors in all, and the top floor contains a room for the High Priestess.　The middle floors host monks, priests, and so on, and those who conduct the business necessary for the Axiom Church to rule the Human World also live there. On the third floor is an armory, but the fiftieth floor has a utility called «The Great Hall of the Spirit World&#039;s Light»&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Notes:&lt;br /&gt;
*Kirito &amp;amp; Eugeo&#039;s descs borrowed and modified from Eternal Dreamer&#039;s descs from last volume.&lt;br /&gt;
*Not entirely sure Deusolbert&#039;s referring to himself or his bow.&lt;br /&gt;
*熾 turned up &amp;quot;Seraphim&amp;quot; in Google Translate. No idea what&#039;s up with that.&lt;br /&gt;
**熾焰 in Chink can mean something along the lines of &amp;quot;Blazing&amp;quot;. Also, Sky Piercing Sword sounds better than Heaven Piercing Sword to me.&lt;br /&gt;
***Eeh, &amp;quot;Heaven&amp;quot; sounds more flashy to me, when it&#039;s &amp;quot;Heaven Piercing&amp;quot; vs &amp;quot;Sky Piercing&amp;quot;...unless it&#039;s maybe something like &amp;quot;Skysplitter&amp;quot;. -[[User:AKAAkira|Akira]] ([[User talk:AKAAkira|talk]]) 19:45, 3 May 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
*実 has way too many different positive trait translations. &amp;quot;Sincerity&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;truth&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;fidelity&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;faith&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;confidence&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;devotion&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;trust&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;reliance&amp;quot;... I think &amp;quot;purity&amp;quot; works best here, though.&lt;br /&gt;
**From context, it seems like it&#039;s been two years since he last used the bow&#039;s true ability. The bow becomes engulfed in flames when it&#039;s Enhance Armament is activated.&lt;br /&gt;
*I &#039;&#039;think&#039;&#039; いか in this case is supposed to be the 以下 kind. I think.&lt;br /&gt;
*剣筋 stumped me. Pretty sure it&#039;s supposed to be a compound word, but no idea what it entails. I just left it at &amp;quot;sword&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;quot;Superstructure&amp;quot; there isn&#039;t intrinsically correct, but it definitely sounds good - better than &amp;quot;great tower&amp;quot; (which I&#039;m pretty sure is the original meaning) and more accurate than &amp;quot;skyscraper&amp;quot; (especially with the modern image that word draws upon).&lt;br /&gt;
*I&#039;m pretty sure 霞んで見えない basically says &amp;quot;so hazy it can&#039;t be seen&amp;quot;, but that was kinda hard to conform into a &amp;quot;the tower&#039;s zenith is at a height&amp;quot; sentence structure, and I thought &amp;quot;obscurity&amp;quot; covers both the &amp;quot;indistinct&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;lack of ability to see&amp;quot; bases well enough anyway.&lt;br /&gt;
*I think this のぞき　is the 覗き kind?&lt;br /&gt;
*Strictly speaking, 憧れの天職 translates more as &amp;quot;yearn to take as their calling&amp;quot;, but...&amp;quot;yearn to become&amp;quot; is virtually the same meaning.&lt;br /&gt;
*Not entirely sure about 先活. 先 is along the lines of &amp;quot;former&amp;quot; and 活 is basically &amp;quot;lives&amp;quot;...but apparently 活　is a synonym for 生, and 先生 is &#039;&#039;sensei&#039;&#039;. For now, went with the former, since that makes more sense in context.&lt;br /&gt;

==Editor==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
OK some of you might notice that this thing has an editor all of a sudden. I&#039;ve done this &#039;without&#039; a supervisor..... I hope that&#039;s OK.... O.o&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Feel free to keep editing if you see something wrong though, we&#039;re only two pairs of eyes and it&#039;s highly probable that we&#039;d miss something. Also we aren&#039;t perfect.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::This is also not going to affect the speed in any way (well except for only today I think... since y&#039;know it&#039;s going to be first &#039;gap&#039; but it&#039;ll be back to normal. Actually you guys won&#039;t even notice).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::You&#039;re never be going to be waiting for too long.... well unless I&#039;m translating slowly. If the editor hasn&#039;t put the next chap up in two days I&#039;ll put mine up first. The editor can chance it with his (or her???? Now I think about it I don&#039;t know O.O) version. But I don&#039;t think that that&#039;s going to happen.&lt;br /&gt;

Far from perfect. We&#039;re both ESL (English as Second Language) people after all. The good news is that I can do Chinese-English proofreading/editing, the bad news is that tenses are a weakness for me. I&#039;m trying to keep an eye out on other people&#039;s edits and track what kind of things I miss, but if you notice a particular pattern that I fault in please don&#039;t hesitate to fix and/or drop me a note. Also, having more editors is usually a good thing. -- Aorii&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:I should have asked before putting up my rather literal translation up, but is that okay? It has already be reverted though. &lt;br /&gt;
As when I went through the japanese text, some stuff was missing. &lt;br /&gt;
By the way, the tense used is past tense, right? Tenses should be same throughout the novel. -KuroiHikari&lt;br /&gt;

Hello, i was just wondering if you guys would accept another editor here. I have read almost all 9 volumes, and there are always many, MANY grammatical errors and weird literal translations in the text. The translation itself is solid, but it is just really awkward to read. I do really appreciate the work you guys put into this, and I&#039;m not trying to demean or anything, but i think i could contribute greatly to the editing of this novel. I am very proficient in english, and I could probably edit a chapter in 2-3 days, or faster depending on the length of the chapter. If you&#039;ll accept me, you could send me an unedited text from something to test my skills if required. I would be happy to lend a hand to such a great project.

So, I started reading the novels after having watched the anime. I really like it and I appreciate the work, but I think there&#039;s a lot that I could offer as an editor. Besides odd sentence structure, I&#039;ve seen a few misspellings. I know it says on the main page to contact a supervisor if you want to join the project, but I&#039;m not sure how to go about doing that. If someone could help me out, I would appreciate it. --[[User:nVitius|nVitius]] 3:00, 5 January 2013 PST&lt;br /&gt;

I really like this. When I first started reading it sounded like just another virtual reality/MMORPG anime... thing, but now, it looks really cool!&lt;br /&gt;
Please Give us chapter four soon!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:I agree with this fellows statement as well. It sounded dumb at first, but the character&#039;s feel far more realistic than I would have thought. I hope this gets alot of attention. Good luck Sharramon!&lt;br /&gt;

:::Thank you all ^^ I&#039;ve done chap four now! But it&#039;s more of a run through of how the situation was like in Aincrad. The story starts properly from chapter five. I&#039;ll try to translate that as quick as possible too!&lt;br /&gt;
::::I love you&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::::Thanks for the update&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is good! I like the development in chapter 5. Will wait until next update! I look forward to the next chapter, from what I see in the illustration there will be some romance...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

This is turning into a pretty good response column, and for a nifty reason; SAO is pretty kick ass. All our thanks go out to you, Sharramon, keep up the good work! ps BTW you have the fastest chapter updates I&#039;ve seen in awhile! and as the previous comment mentioned, that isn&#039;t some weird pressure build up, its a compliment.&lt;br /&gt;

:BTW you have the fastest chapter updates I&#039;ve seen in awhile!&lt;br /&gt;

::That&#039;s most probably because this light novel has the shortest chapters that you&#039;ve seen in a while! :D And chap 6 done! Hell yeah!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::Thanks for chapter 6. This is a really good light novel. Can&#039;t wait for the next chapters. I would like to know though when you get volume 2 whether Kirito stays with Asuna after volume 1 or not. Because looking at the covers for volumes 2 and 3 it seems he teams up with other girls.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::::He does stay with her. Book two&#039;s about the past and the third book is about saving her from a game or something by what I gather...&lt;br /&gt;

Seeing the update section.... I&#039;ve realized that I&#039;ve done more than a chap every two days WITHOUT the prologue O.O.....&lt;br /&gt;

:That&#039;s why you&#039;re Sharramon-sama :) thanks for the great releases xD&lt;br /&gt;

::damn! this is like reading Naruto. No, not the storyline, but on the updates... (yours is of course, much faster than the weekly updates) but nonetheless, the suspense, the waiting... it feels the same. Anyway, thank you for the fast updates! SPOILERS!!!!! nuooohh!!!&lt;br /&gt;

don&#039;t understand third volume images ç.ç aren&#039;t they supposed to have their true form? so why there are non.humans? waiting fro spoileeeers XD&lt;br /&gt;

:You will understand once the translation gets that far. It&#039;s not fun being spoiled. Because you just keep wanting to know more.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You are awesome and so is this book! I know this is a minor point, but semicolons are meant to separate two closely related things that could be sentences by themselves, like the first line of the synopsis. For parts like &amp;quot;...floating castle, &#039;Aincrad&#039;; he distinguished...&amp;quot;, it should really be commas on both sides of Aincrad.&lt;br /&gt;

:That&#039;s how they are named. Take a look at the third colour page for volume 01 and 02. &lt;br /&gt;
{| style=&amp;quot;background:black; color:black&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|They are named after the setting they take place in or so it seems. &lt;br /&gt;

::I know that, I was just commenting on how it was odd.&lt;br /&gt;

== So because I couldn&#039;t wait... ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I thought hey why not use ATLAS to translate the raw to at least get a hint of what&#039;s going to happen.&lt;br /&gt;
This did not go well, I mean although the program boasts its amazing accuracy in translating, when I translated the whole novel it didn&#039;t even make sense at all. In fact, a Google online translation did better than the $1,400 program.&lt;br /&gt;
So in conclusion, I decided to patiently wait . . . okay never mind! Please!!!! I can&#039;t wait! where&#039;s the next chapter...&lt;br /&gt;
Thank you for translations, I really appreciate it. I LOVE Sword Art Online!-Jun&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I actually did the same thing, but I could understand like one sentence out of 15, and it also helps if you know what ATLAS translates the names as. I also found a timeline of SAO&#039;s events, and used Rikaichan to skim through it (I probably look for spoilers a little too much on series I really like, and I wasn&#039;t disappointed). Anyway though, I&#039;ve been meaning to ask this: sharramon, are you using official Korean translations or fan translations?&lt;br /&gt;
-Enigma&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Official. I&#039;m translating with the book in my hands.... I&#039;ll have to buy another one. This one&#039;s gotten really dirty XP&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I did as well. Oddly, I can figure out quite much of chapter 5 with it. It hurt my eyes and mind though. It feels like deciphering a code @-@. I decide to quit because the deciphering work reduce the enjoyment in reading it and when I read sharramon-sama&#039;s translation to find out he bits I&#039;m missing, it just won&#039;t as fun since I got to know part of the stroy already.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
@Enigma wait there is Korean translations of Sword Art Online? If there is, where could I get my hands on it? -Jun&lt;br /&gt;
Edit: Oh wait, never mind. I ordered the Korean version through AladdinUS. Can&#039;t wait to read it ^_^ -Jun&lt;br /&gt;

Ive been studying japanese for quite a while now, and can happily sayim slowly progressing,and as such decided to buy the published version that&#039;s still in japanese, two questions now: one, is it in kanji/furigana? and two if not what level of reading should I know to be able to read it effectively&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== What are we going to do with 16.5 in the full text version? ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Eventually Volume 1 will be finished, and we will do what we always do with a finished volume: make a full text!! But we have this chapter 16.5 complicating the situation. Does it go in? Stay out? Make two versions (what I think is would be best)? Something else? Let&#039;s decide what&#039;s going to happen before the volumes done.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I say make a full text with reference to 16.5 but not actual text...or throw in a link to 16.5 with a dire &amp;quot;read at own disgretion&amp;quot; message.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
-Ence&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think we should make 2 versions of it, SFW and NSFW... XD - RandomPasserBy&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Don&#039;t add it to the full text. I wouldn&#039;t even add it to the volume 1 overview nor to the &amp;quot;forward to..&amp;quot; box, to be honest. 16.5 may be canon, but it is not part of the book. As far as I know, he had this chapter only posted on his back-site without any reference on the front page. [[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] 08:16, 26 February 2010 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
oh yeah, now that you mention it... the book can&#039;t possibly have this chapter...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Considering all the killing, explicit violence that the book has, its already at least 16+ or young adults.. can&#039;t rate something M just because of some cybersex.. -Irec&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wouldn&#039;t it be better to, at least, put a link in the full text to let those who want to read it in the good context be able to read it ?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think a link with a warning would work.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Chapter 16 still links to 16.5... is this intentional or a a side-effect of the nav template? -[[User:Milki|milki]] 03:53, 18 February 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I did not realise there was a chapter 16.5 at all before I came over this... And now that I&#039;ve seen it, I agree that it shouldn&#039;t be put in the full text. What I&#039;m wondering about, though, is if Reki Kawahara really wrote this himself, where it was published and how on earth it came to this site. Oh, and this chapter might be a little hard to notice if you go directly to the full text to read volume 1.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
-&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You know - this is pretty much under the carpet now, but I think this was handled pretty poorly. If 16.5 was not canon, it should have been put under the side stories with an R-18 warning. The author had it on his website with other stories that are up here, so the argument that he didn&#039;t write it is not a very good one. Age appropriate is not good either - R-18 warning as stated, but this site is not an all-ages site to begin with. You have R-18 visual novel projects, Type-Moon&#039;s numerous titles, etc. Some of the posts for removing it were downright confusing: &amp;quot;it left a bad taste in my mouth.&amp;quot; Or &amp;quot;look at what people recognize me for.&amp;quot; I&#039;m sorry, but...what? You didn&#039;t like a chapter, so it should be erased from history? One is going to quit translation of this series because of the &amp;quot;infamy&amp;quot; of it? I know you aren&#039;t in this for public recognition, so why do you care about that? This massive double standard with sexual content is an American value style product that confuses me, but it shouldn&#039;t be influencing what goes up and comes down. We have titles on here that involve graphic descriptions of extreme violence, graphic descriptions of sexual content and innuendo, as well as images of nude people of all ages and violence against them to accompany them. I am really disappointed that management is going down this route, because it&#039;s only a matter of time before other titles get censored or screwed up because of this new standard. - somewhat disappointed and concerned long time reader. --Anonymous&lt;br /&gt;

In my opinion, this wouldn&#039;t be so much issue if the chapter wasn&#039;t included in volume 1 to begin with, it being up there caused confusion to many readers as they think it&#039;s actually in the published version, I was under that very impression for a while, until I had chance to check the JP book version.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
@anon, it seemed you misunderstood the fact, author really wrote 16.5 and he really put it on his website, but he &#039;&#039;never&#039;&#039; put it along with the web version of Aincrad arc, he made a temporally R-18 section named &#039;Word Gear Reverse&#039; and put 16.5 along with some R-18 stories written by someone else  there. So putting it in volume 1 section is a bad idea, and that&#039;s the reason I was strongly against it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Currently BT has a vague stance about the mature content, there is no rule preventing the mature content to be hosted on wiki, but in forums, the rules clearly stated that posting mature content is not permitted. Maybe the higher ups could discuss about this double standard and come up with a single rules set for both wiki and forums.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On a side note: Why so many complaints about the removal of 16.5 but no one cares that ME1&amp;amp;3 can&#039;t be hosted here? Especially when ME1 is mentioned in both anime &amp;amp; published volumes. Just curious. -- [[User:BeginnerXP|BeginnerXP]] ([[User_talk:BeginnerXP|Talk]]) 08:33, 17 September 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

Honestly, I don&#039;t want to shift the blame here nor try to explain myself since I suppose none of you would want to hear me out, so I&#039;ll take responsibility for this. Mature content &#039;&#039;&#039;can&#039;&#039;&#039; be posted on the wiki, but &#039;&#039;&#039;must&#039;&#039;&#039; be labelled with a warning, an R-18 tag. However, this is a different case for the forums, where no one is allowed to post such stuff. If you wonder why there is a different standard for the forums, it&#039;s because the rules for the forums were &#039;copied&#039; from Animesuki...Personally, I don&#039;t believe there&#039;s a need to review it.&lt;br /&gt;

As for your last paragraph, Beginner, I think you would know the answer...--[[User:Teh Ping|Teh Ping]] ([[User talk:Teh Ping|talk]]) 21:31, 17 September 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I was not trying to shift blame, only point out the issues with said reasoning. I was particularly surprised that Ping said what he did because he always seemed opposed to removing content over anything that didn&#039;t involve content getting licensed or users making unjust profits. Like I said, I just thought it was handled poorly: it should have simply been moved to the side story section and given an R-18 warning. I did not know about other stories being removed, but if they have, I would of course recommend the same action. Removing R-18 content like this just creates needless problems involving content that BT shouldn&#039;t have to deal with. For example, it&#039;s really easy to argue that DxD or Campione should not be hosted because of their content based on this decision (there is not a single warning of R-18 content either.) It is not any of you guys&#039; responsibility to be the parent for children lurking the internet, anyway. It had a warning when I read it last time, and when I came back to re-read SAO, it was gone completely. I do not have any thoughts about the forum; as it is separate from the Wiki, I do not think it is a problem to enforce a different set of rules. On a closing note, please take this less personally, Ping. I am not making you out to be a &amp;quot;bad person&amp;quot; or whatever strange thoughts you&#039;re having. I wanted my thoughts known, but I didn&#039;t want to clog up the forum seeing as it seemed to be a dead issue. While I would want any removed stories to be restored, the management and translators such as yourself are obviously the ones who have the final word. Restricting content because it doesn&#039;t appeal or seem appropriate to (x) audience is a dangerous direction to go for BT though, I feel. Take it easy and thanks for reading. --Anonymous&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
@Beginner, does ME 1 &amp;amp; 3 contain questionable content? All I know is that they are doujins, so might not belong in a LN wiki like BT. Maybe a link might be good instead of no content (which had me assume no work was done on it, up until recently), but thats up to the heads.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
@Teh Ping, I respect you for your decision to take responsibility for the ire of readers on removing the chapter, though I think its not something you have to do (if it was made out of frustration and a wish for the topic to be dropped). Not sure what was the cause of the removal (I&#039;m willing to listen if you have the time to chat),  I cannot help but feel those who complain so much about it, will not or can not see beyond wanting to have everything in one place for their convenience (the internet is a wide place after all). For those stating it affects BT, do realize that even novels on the market are constantly being revised and edited as they are reprinted, to fit the standards of the time. Removing one event which does not have much plot context (unlike the anime...) and is not even part of the published novel is not going to affect anything, and is a weak point for argument. Comparing other LNs to this is even weaker, considering those rarely even reach the level of content shown here (LNs get edited before release as well...) So do consider your argument on insisting you must be able to find it on BT.--[[User:Gabgrave|Gabgrave]] ([[User talk:Gabgrave|talk]]) 01:51, 18 September 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
@Anon, While I don&#039;t read nor watch DxD &amp;amp; Campione, I know for sure that those 2 series are at most R-15 and still can be sold at normal channels in Japan, while 16.5 is in a completely different situation, it&#039;s clearly R-18 and will never be able to sell alongside other light novels even if it&#039;s published. It&#039;s fine if you compared 16.5 to our visual novel projects, but please give a legit example of R-18 light novel hosting here.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
@Gabgrave, ME1&amp;amp;3 are manga written by author himself, their content are clean, and I particularly like ME1 too, you should be able to find them at some online manga reading sites. The reason we can&#039;t hosted them even though they&#039;re both completely scanslated now, is because of its nature, we don&#039;t host manga here unless the script is posted as well (like ME2). The reason is legit and I respect that decision, it&#039;s just funny that the removal of the questionable content caused so much stir within SAO community here, while 2 clean &amp;amp; good legit stories from the same author not being here didn&#039;t raise any question nor request.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
@Beginner, Thanks for the description, I have the links and will be looking them up. I think why people are not commenting is because like me, they see the red links in the page, and assume they are not translated yet. Only if we happen across some comments that make us aware that they do exists already, then we start looking for it.--[[User:Gabgrave|Gabgrave]] ([[User talk:Gabgrave|talk]]) 02:25, 18 September 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

My bad. Mistaken information received. Removed from post.--[[User:Gabgrave|Gabgrave]] ([[User talk:Gabgrave|talk]]) 03:23, 18 September 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Firstly, when I say trying to shift blame, I would refer to the guy who actually took down the page, Vaelis, the admin of the SAO project. On Baka Tsuki, each project can be removed by three groups of people. The translator of the work, the Supervisors, and the admins. Since we&#039;re going to be stuck here for a while, I&#039;ll break it down.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
First, while I said that I didn&#039;t like having 16.5, I respect the fact that it was uploaded. That was why I never demanded for it to be deleted, even though I am vocal against those who wanted it on &#039;&#039;&#039;just to see that Kirito and Asuna have their relationship consummated&#039;&#039;&#039;, which is a completely stupid excuse (note that I don&#039;t say reason here because there was nothing reasonable at all). When I posted &#039;&#039;&#039;in white&#039;&#039;&#039; that I would go unless it was removed, note that it was in jest. Do note that while I am against it being posted, I am neutral against it being removed because the damage had already been done. [http://www.baka-tsuki.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=59&amp;amp;t=3128&amp;amp;start=2040 All the mess can be read from here until the next 5 pages or so] If you had seen my actions during the Volume 9 incident, you would have realized that if I wanted a page to be deleted, I would have just gone ahead to delete all the stuff way back when I joined this project (as a Supervisor), and how I nearly nuked the entire Accel World project here. Now, I really don&#039;t want Vaelis to be blamed for this, but he did delete it after reading through our arguments (on both parties). This is why I say that I will just take all the blame, because if I go on to explain, other people are just going to be implicated as well, (and I&#039;m pretty much...the fall guy on Baka Tsuki at this point). If you&#039;re going to talk about how I had been whining about it affecting my rep, Gabgrave made the mistake I knew was coming from a mile away (before correcting it). No one is trying to be a &#039;parent&#039; here, but I won&#039;t be elaborating on this part because I&#039;m in class right now&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And yes, I am very frustrated that we&#039;re still arguing over when it has been almost 3 months since this was &#039;resolved&#039;. Unfortunately, I don&#039;t think there would be a proper conclusion in this case. The way we have been going on about this is as if some important story was omitted like how Kirito took on Heathcliff. If you say that it&#039;s important, understand this, it&#039;s not in the official printed LN. If you argue for the case of how the MEs and other stuff are all uploaded even though they&#039;re not in print media, again, bottom line is whether the three groups of people want it online.--[[User:Teh Ping|Teh Ping]] ([[User talk:Teh Ping|talk]]) 04:06, 18 September 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It seems like my point is being missed...removing content because it is &amp;quot;objectionable,&amp;quot; is not something I think BT should do. It&#039;s not in the official printed LN, which is why I said it should be moved to side stories. I don&#039;t really care if it consummates their relationship or not (it&#039;s a harem where one girl is given the &amp;quot;I&#039;m going to win regardless&amp;quot; before said chapter even happens, so...) There is no such thing as &amp;quot;damage done&amp;quot; if you ask me: if the author thought it was good enough to be on his site, I&#039;m not going to judge it as some &amp;quot;garbage&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;painful to read&amp;quot; work of a fan. And while you, Gabgrave, may think DxD/Campione is not R-18, you would have an incredibly hard time persuading someone who was raised in a Western environment otherwise (I read all three of these titles, and they go pretty far, haha.) I&#039;m not sure why anyone is getting upset over this, but I can&#039;t keep a rational topic going for long if I&#039;m the only one trying to do so. I&#039;ll drop it with this. -- Anonymous&lt;br /&gt;

Can&#039;t believe I actually registered an account just to respond to this message. Look, are you trying to guilt trip the other guys here, or are you just trying to get them to say sorry for removing and stuff? From the look of your first paragraph, it already showed that you were trying to blame someone for this, especially Teh Ping. I can understand why Ping wanted to hurry up and get over this because he has better things to do than to respond to someone like you who&#039;s digging up the past for your own sake. If you want to know where your beloved 16.5 went, just follow what Zero got to. Rational topic? How rational is it in the first place when you&#039;re talking about it, &#039;&#039;3 months after it was removed,&#039;&#039; when everyone is planning to just continue on, and how about talking about R-18 and stuff when your American standard doesn&#039;t match what the Japanese assume to be R-18? There&#039;s a reason why Campione and DxD are both published while this 16.5, even with Japan&#039;s lax standard for fanservice nowadays, failed to make the cut. Consider me grateful that it was taken down because it was such a huge distraction (Doesn&#039;t chapter 17 imply that they did it in the first place?). Now, if you&#039;re going to continue to post here regarding this, I think Teh Ping would be pissed that he has to be the one arguing with you instead of working on volume 10 of SAO (I can only remain patient as a reader).--[[User:Wertmog|Wertmog]] ([[User talk:Wertmog|talk]]) 21:38, 18 September 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

I&#039;m honestly kind of impressed. Like, why do either of you visit this site? Apparently neither of you can read at all! I do not care about too much about 16.5. It is easy to find and it does not add much, if anything, to the story. I care about the fact that &#039;&#039;&#039;IT WAS CONSIDERED SOMETHING THAT SHOULD NOT BE UPLOADED AND LATER REMOVED BECAUSE OF OBJECTIONABLE CONTENT.&#039;&#039;&#039; There is nothing about guilt trips and I have no idea why people like you have to make things personal despite my repeated assurances that I was not. The entire point of me bringing up standards is because &#039;&#039;&#039;THERE ARE NO SUCH STANDARDS.&#039;&#039;&#039; What is considered obscene in Japan is not considered obscene in the US, and the opposite is often true as well. When you do things like this, you create a standard. And creating this particular standard jeopardizes other projects in the future because declaring what content is appropriate is a &#039;&#039;very&#039;&#039; slippery slope. There is nothing to argue about; this is simply how things work. That concerns me and I would rather say &amp;quot;this looks dangerous&amp;quot; instead of standing by and waiting for things to play out. I&#039;m glad Ping cares enough to read and respond to my concerns, but it seems like he simply assumed I was complaining about how 16.5 is gone and nothing more. I don&#039;t want to assign &amp;quot;blame&amp;quot; or else I would be quite frank about it (as I am with you two.) I don&#039;t consider it his responsibility that the chapter was taken down, but BT&#039;s as a whole. Furthermore, Ping is free to do whatever he pleases; I doubt he considers &amp;quot;arguing&amp;quot; with me a priority when choosing between the browsing the internet, translating, and whatever other recreational stuff he does. So take your flame baits somewhere else. Or don&#039;t, I said I would drop this, and now I will. I voiced my concerns and what&#039;s done is done. If someone can&#039;t handle me having the last word, insult me or tell me how wrong I am... or let the issue die. Regardless, I wish the best to Ping and those involved with translating, as well as those who bothered to think about my concerns in a logical manner. --Anonymous&lt;br /&gt;

== Similar to Prince Revolution? ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;ve read two chapters of SAO and up to chapter 4 of PR&#039;s Vol3 and so far the settings are really similar, although they&#039;re different in terms of characters and amount of comedy and other things.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It may be very similar, but you can&#039;t say that this setting is very unique in terms of anime and manga, I mean, look at .Hack. I think that this is the similarity is only a result of the similar settings.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
_______________________________________&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Prince Revolution is the name of the site/group that translates the novel &amp;quot;1/2 Prince&amp;quot; by Yu Wo. Not the novel itself. There may be some similiarities to 1/2 Prince, the .Hack//-series or Yureka, but that is because all of them are about virtual reality MMOs. If you look at them from another point of view, you might see the differences in the plot. SAO is about being trapped in the game, with virtual death killing your real body and the struggle to escape this. This is not the case in 1/2 Prince, where the big problem lies in&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
-*************SPOILER ALERT START************ (Is it possible to put the following lines in a spoiler-tab? I have no idea how to do it)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
NPCs getting self-concious and revolting against human players in the game world. Yureka also have a few &amp;quot;virtual death = real death&amp;quot; parts, but the main story is about the main character finding the hacking program called Yureka who is somewhere in the game world. I haven&#039;t read .Hack//, so sadly, I can&#039;t say anything about that.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
-*************SPOILER ALERT END*************&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, think of this before you imply that a novel is a copy of another one. Sure, it may have been an inspiration to SAO (Actually, that depends on which of them were written first), but unless the plot is the exact same thing, they are looked at as two different novels. An example of this is Lion King. It is inspired by Hamlet, but would you sue Disney for trying to copy Shakespeare?&lt;br /&gt;

Hey, &lt;br /&gt;
I just saw some kind of SAO-manga and wasn&#039;t quite sure what it actually was - a oneshot? some fan-made stuff? or is there really going to be a SAO-manga?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It&#039;s about 33pages long and just looked like the beginning of the first volume, though it was a little different.&lt;br /&gt;
And as I neither have seen anything about a SAO-manga existing up till now nor am able to read japanese, I just thought I&#039;d ask here. &lt;br /&gt;

Ok, I have been debating with myself (I&#039;m going nuts) whether to add the LAUGHING COFFIN ARC in the table of contents- It seems that this arc, happened during Aincrad, a side story that should be included in the Volume 2. But because it&#039;s long (4 chapters) the publishers dropped it, but the events in this is mentioned in vol.1, tho, in a few words only. It&#039;d be nice if we can read the entire story about this right? Kirito, Asuna and other Clearers vs the Laughing Coffin Guild, the biggest PKers in Aincrad. - Saorian&lt;br /&gt;

I&#039;d love to read the laughing coffin arc. From what I&#039;ve heard, it might be important to some of the other books. But, would you add it as if it were another book - like instead of Sword Art Online: Volume ## --&amp;gt; Sword Art Online:Laughing Coffin Arc?--[[User:Darn2k|Darn2k]] 14:36, 15 April 2011 (UCT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
How about like this: Volume SS - LAUGHING COFFIN ARC , and stick it between Volume 2 and 3? - Saorian&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I added it - since Side Stories 1,2,3,6 were made into vol2 Aincrad, Side Stories 4 included in Phantom Bullet vol 5 and Side Story 6 got it&#039;s own very own book, vol 7 - It&#039;s safe to say that SAO SS 5 - Laughing Coffing Guild arc, won&#039;t get published as it&#039;s Timeline was passed on already (between vol 2 and 3) The other SS respected the proper timeline...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
----&lt;br /&gt;
Btw. if more timeline issues pop up you could create a timeline page, where the story is listed sorted in chronological order... --[[User:Darklor|Darklor]] 21:57, 16 May 2011 (UCT)&lt;br /&gt;
----&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So is this chapter even published? Because from what I read here it seems it&#039;s out but nobody wants to add it cause we already went past it in chronological order.&lt;br /&gt;
I fail to see how that&#039;s a reason though as the special with Kirito meeting Asuna was inserted after we went past those event.&lt;br /&gt;
Can someone clarify?&lt;br /&gt;
Thanks.--[[User:Mufarasu|Mufarasu]] 22:06, 11 March 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

== Simply Amazing ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is simply amazing. Honestly I&#039;m not much of a crybaby I watch and read sad animes and mangas all the time and just take them in as a story. So far I&#039;ve only cried twice during watching all the animes and mangas I&#039;ve seen in the past 5,6 years of my life, to Bitter Virgin (Manga) and to Kanon 2006 (anime... which truthfully I watch all eps in a single sitting crying from ep 7 onwards practically non stop.). So far this Story has made me cry numerous times. It is so well written and the characters are so real its strange.Only problem I have with it is that I don&#039;t like how volume 2 works. I only really like the AsunaxKirito/Kazuka storyline not all that extra stuff that doesn&#039;t continue on with the story. Sadly the way I see it after reading Volume 1 I can&#039;t see any room for a prequel. The story starts with entering SOA. And nothing that happens up until he kills the Ragout Rabbit matters. I spose how Asuna and Kirito initially met matters slightly but honestly, I find it much better knowning that they knew each other as acquaintances and thats all. Even the part about him having Asuna nap next to him really doesn&#039;t add all that much.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Volume 3 while not as touching seems to bring up a lot of my memories of the first volume as well as adding in some slight new things... it doesn&#039;t really seem it (so far only on chapter 3) but it does so in a subtler way then Vol 1&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Well, read volume 2 as it comes out and stuff. It is full of Kirito&#039;s awesomeness. Also, one of the things I love most about this novel is how &amp;quot;The Black Swordsman&amp;quot; is codeword for &amp;quot;Oh Shi-!&amp;quot; [[User:Ax&amp;amp;#39;el|Ax&amp;amp;#39;el]] 21:09, 16 May 2011 (UCT)&lt;br /&gt;

== The Tentative time line ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think you should remove the tentative time line from the page or put it under spoilers, because it spoils for people who didn&#039;t read it, how the first volume ends.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Suspense: Volume 4 Chapter 9 ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ahhh dear editors, don&#039;t build up sooo much suspense! I and I think many others are like dying to read the final chapter (though I think the highlight were chapter 7 and 8). But really thanks a lot for all of your work! I really appreciate it!&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
First off, thanks so much for the excellent translating job everyone&#039;s doing! But, I&#039;m a little confused as to why v7 is being translated before v5&amp;amp;6. Is v7 a type of stand-alone volume/how does it relate in time to the arch&#039;s of v5&amp;amp;6? Ok, now I think I&#039;m rambling, but I hope you get what I&#039;m asking. Thanks again and keep up the good work!&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
I don&#039;t think so, or at least if it is, no-one has updated to show a larger portion of the story. which is a pity really because there aren&#039;t enough translators, though if decent enough translations are made part by part, and the abundant editors will probably be able to sort out grammar and consistency [[Special:Contributions/92.41.251.249|92.41.251.249]] 16:39, 7 November 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

Hey, I recently started reading sword art online, and I sincerely appreciate the work that&#039;s been done thus far. I&#039;d love to contribute, but an upcoming major exam&#039;s hogging my time. Sword Art&#039;s been great read, and it really helps in stress relief. Once again, thanks all.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== Great story, great translation! ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I just finished volume 4 and I wanted to stop by and say how awesome you guys are for translating this.&lt;br /&gt;
This series is a great piece of science fiction and I&#039;m glad you guys are bringing it to another audience.&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;ve heard how troublesome and time consuming translating can be, especially Japanese, but you&#039;re all doing an awesome job!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Keep up the good work! :)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== I think this is an issue ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Chapter four of Mother&#039;s Rosario has the link that leads to chapter five, but chapter five isn&#039;t shown as being done or having any link on the main project page.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

I heard a game is coming underway too, is that true?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
How many episodes do you suppose there will be in the anime? Hope they&#039;re more than 12. Also is there only one season planned or will that depend on the ratings? GAME?!?!? mmo based on ALO or visual novel?&lt;br /&gt;

== Replacement of nav table with nav template ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I would hence like to propose that we replace the current (and if I may say, extremely limited capability carrying) nav table system:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
ie:&lt;br /&gt;
{| border=&amp;quot;1&amp;quot; cellpadding=&amp;quot;5&amp;quot; cellspacing=&amp;quot;0&amp;quot; style=&amp;quot;margin: 1em 1em 1em 0; background: #f9f9f9; border: 1px #aaaaaa solid; padding: 0.2em; border-collapse: collapse;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
| Back to [[Sword Art Online:Volume 2 Chapter 3|Chapter 3]]&lt;br /&gt;
| Return to [[Sword Art Online|Main Page]]&lt;br /&gt;
| Forward to [[Sword Art Online:Volume 2 Chapter 4 Part 2|Part 2]]&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
with the new [[Template:SAO Nav|SAO Nav Template]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
ie: {{SAO Nav|prev=Sword Art Online:Volume 2 Chapter 3|next=Sword Art Online:Volume 2 Chapter 4 Part 2}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
which is becoming popular and has more capabilities/advantages.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Advantages of the new system:&lt;br /&gt;
#We can decrease the overall page storage size. (No need to write long code, just the call code will be enough, take a look of this section in edit mode to get the picture.)&lt;br /&gt;
#Have a call code that is easier to:&lt;br /&gt;
##memorize&lt;br /&gt;
##recall&lt;br /&gt;
##and write. (Again, see in edit mode if you still don&#039;t understand)&lt;br /&gt;
#Have page jumping ability to any page in the series regardless of where we currently are, thus speeding up page navigation in case of checking previous or future facts for comparison.&lt;br /&gt;
#Can make changes to template page itself and have the navs on the pages immediately mirror the changes. (Reduction of data redundancy and error, ie: you wont have to go through all the pages and change every single one just editing the template page will be enough).&lt;br /&gt;
#Template&#039;s next and prev links are generic so they can be used for both volume and chapter pages without problems, ie: uniform system.&lt;br /&gt;
#Collapsibility ensures that size is compact and acceptable, for jumping one just needs to expand it by clicking the [show] link.&lt;br /&gt;
#Page center aligned. (Not really important, it looks better than right aligning it, still... minor point)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This template was previously fully implemented but then removed due to some issues. All those in favor or against please respond. If you wish any improvements to the template then please suggest them on the [[Template Talk:SAO Nav]] page. I will address them as best as I can.

Hey hey. If there is no one against it then it is fine to implement it, right? I mean the advantages listed above show that it is more beneficial to implement. And no one having any points against it kinda also suggests the same. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 07:34, 28 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m against it and I already implemented a nav bar with most of the advantages you mentioned. I put it in volume 1 and will do the other volume soon.&lt;br /&gt;
[[User:Vaelis|Vaelis]] 08:47, 28 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hmm so you are using this:&lt;br /&gt;
{{Nav|Sword Art Online:Volume 1 Chapter 1|{{SAO List v1a}}|Sword Art Online}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Page jumping is still not implemented. That is the main functionality of my proposed template. And you say that you are against it? May I ask why? Please explain in detail. I say that there is a great advantage in implementing it because it will allow both users and translators to jump between pages.&lt;br /&gt;
*Translators will be able to navigate between their different chapters more easily and create new chapters with just a click. &#039;&#039;(Plus since the chapter page names will be decided beforehand there won&#039;t be a chance of page name inconsistency that often happens.)&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
*Furthermore, users will be able to navigate more easily as well &#039;&#039;(in the case of dead ends as well as to check a previous chapter for a related fact, or to skip a volume while re-reading, people do that you know)&#039;&#039;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If I recall previously you mentioned that you didn&#039;t like how the template &#039;&#039;looks&#039;&#039; like, is that correct? I must tell you that Infinite Stratos, Itsuka Tenma, Toaru, BakaTest, Chrome Shelled Regios, Dantalian no Shoka have all implemented and started making use of similar templates. I&#039;m only trying to do what is best for this project. Please support me. I assure you that you won&#039;t regret it.

On the opposite side the template Vaelis has implemented is rather interesting. Hmm it has properly addressed the problem of repetition, excessive space wastage, as well as the non-user-friendly coding. Particularly that is automatically generating the links. Very interesting. I&#039;ll examine it thoroughly. Maybe I can implement that in my templates somehow. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 17:28, 28 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
I don&#039;t know about other people, but all I need is the link back to Main. The Back and Next is nice extra. For reading, I mainly use my other comp that is not logged on, so I can read cached stuff which is faster. If people don&#039;t already know, if you sign in with a name while reading, you get served fresh pages every time, anon people get faster cached pages.

&lt;br /&gt;
- Personally, I don&#039;t really care as long as &amp;quot;forward&amp;quot; &amp;quot;main page&amp;quot; are included, since I simply tap backspace to get back, though I must say it&#039;d look ugly without the &amp;quot;back button&amp;quot;. Also, jumping through halyard from a volume to another volume is, I must say, unuseful in my case. However, I find the nav bar pretty good-looking, which is the reason why I wasn&#039;t fully opposed back then, even if I was sceptical about it. Personally, if the bar could simply keep the back/forward buttons, the main page buttons, it&#039;d be fine, though I would like the chapter names indicated on th next/previous button. Also, I feel more concerned about these huge references tag that take too much space in the text than the nav bar... [[User:Kira0802|Kira]] ([[User_talk:Kira0802|Talk]]) 21:09, 28 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I agree with Kira. Note this isn&#039;t about SAO directly but rather about this type of navbar as a whole. If I really want to jump chapters/volumes, I really won&#039;t care about 2 clicks instead of 1 (Main -&amp;gt; the chapter I want). Actually, I don&#039;t even use the Main button much, just the Forward one. I can&#039;t recall ever using the Back button. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For me I&#039;m fine whether or not the chapter name is included, because when just reading I don&#039;t care what the name of the next chapter is, I can just click Forward to get to it, and when I&#039;m editing stuff I use the Main Page as a portal (it&#039;d be open in a tab by itself) and the chapter names are available there.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In fact, I&#039;ve even created a group of navs that have most of the advantages you state and maintains the simplicity of the Nav template, but is in my opinion better than the generic Nav template, in that it is specialized for each novel, so if it needs to be changed for some specific novel it can be done without affecting any of the other novels. They can be found [[:Category:Simple_Navbars|here]]. It would be nice if there is some kind of standard that could be decided, for the moment anyways. By the way, I&#039;m starting to think this doesn&#039;t fit in the SAO talk anymore and maybe should have a forum topic.. --[[User:Jonathanasdf|jonathanasdf]] 21:43, 28 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hmm, interesting points, I&#039;ll try and explain my reasoning below:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*You guys might say that you don&#039;t care but you must admit that it is much easier to navigate if it is a one step method (chapter A -&amp;gt; chapter B) rather than a two step method (Chapter A -&amp;gt; Main Page -&amp;gt; Chapter B). While you may say you might not care, page jumping can help speed up navigation for those who reach dead ends or are translating multiple chapters at the same time. Plus the Next, Previous and Main Page Links are already present in the SAO Nav. Additionally I don&#039;t think forum is needed. This is about SAO strictly.&lt;br /&gt;
*About chapter names included in the next previous: my stance is that it makes the whole thing look bulky. And you can simply expand SAO Nav not only to see your own position (black text) but also the positions of all the chapters (translated and untranslated) this helps motivate people to translate more chapters in less time because of the clash between the visual red and blue links.&lt;br /&gt;
*Those who strictly want to use the next/previous/main buttons need not expand the template at all just use the Next, Prev and Main Page Name Links. It&#039;s a system that caters to both types. And just doesn&#039;t restrict itself to one type. Plus the SAO Nav is for the SAO Novels alone so making changes in it will only affect SAO and no other novels.&lt;br /&gt;
*I am not a fan of the words forward and back since they give off a vibe in terms of page navigation history rather than novel navigation (by page history navigation I mean those two back and forward buttons in the Navigation Toolbar of your Internet Browser).&lt;br /&gt;
*Simple Navs only cater to those who read through linearly and only once. Not everyone does. SAO Nav caters to both parties and it&#039;s already ready to roll, so why is it wrong? [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 23:37, 28 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 this helps motivate people to translate more chapters in less time because of the clash between the visual red and blue links.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
hahaha if only that was true :P&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It&#039;s not &amp;quot;wrong&amp;quot; imo, it just seems a bit ... overkill. I&#039;m neither for nor against, in that my stance is &amp;quot;I don&#039;t really care either way as long as there is some way to get to the next chapter&amp;quot;, but I would like it to be standardized. Also, even if this is SAO only I still think it belongs in the forums because it&#039;s hard to quote stuff in wiki. --[[User:Jonathanasdf|jonathanasdf]] 00:54, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It&#039;s actually true. It&#039;s a subconscious trick I learned from my experience with mediawiki. People can&#039;t stand redlinks. They desire to remove them or turn them blue. If they can&#039;t remove them then they can &#039;&#039;&#039;only&#039;&#039;&#039; turn them blue by making articles. This is one of the things I have learned. Please have faith in me. I believe this trick has actually helped speed up the translation rates on many of the projects where similar templates have been implemented. I don&#039;t know about you guys, but I am sick and tired of waiting. If only I could read kanji/hiragana/katagana, I could help translate. But since I can&#039;t I must use such methods. If I didn&#039;t I&#039;d just be a simple leacher (At least this way I can contribute indirectly). Furthermore, I assure you that my template will sate &#039;&#039;&#039;both&#039;&#039;&#039; those who want linear navigation &#039;&#039;&#039;and&#039;&#039;&#039; those who need to jump between chapters quickly.

I hereby declare. Implementing SAO Nav &#039;&#039;&#039;will&#039;&#039;&#039; improve not only the navigation but also the rate of translation. It is a time-tested surefire method.

There&#039;s no need for that. Ping&#039;s doing a good job enough so we don&#039;t need to subconsiously press him. IMO, anavbar should just go forward and to the main page. No, wait, you just need to click &#039;SAO&#039; on the sidebar to get back to the main page. Also, Zero, I&#039;ll ask you this: When do you surf through a certain chapter of a volume to another chapter 2-3 volumes after? There&#039;s no need for that, and in my old computer, the bar colapses too slowly. Not that I do really mind, since it&#039;s at the bottom, but still, it loads unnecessary content.

I prefer the old one for its simplicity. Just go for previous/next chapter, and navigate 2 other chapters frm main page. short n simple. --[[User:Chancs|Chancs]] 11:29, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Time-tested surefire method? Where&#039;s the evidence? As for why I personally don&#039;t think the chapter jumping is useful, it is because I actually rely on chapter titles to look for where I want to jump to, and this navbar doesn&#039;t have (and can&#039;t really have) chapter titles. So, to me there is no advantage of this navbar over the old one, so I am not supporting it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At the same time, to me there is no disadvantage that this navbar brings since my internet and computer are fast enough to load both at around the same speed, so I am not against it either... --[[User:Jonathanasdf|jonathanasdf]] 13:13, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

I completely agree with &#039;chapters title&#039; issue --[[User:Chancs|Chancs]] 13:27, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Simple design is fine, but the aforementioned lack of chapter title is a huge turn-off for me as well --[[User:TheQwertiest|TheQwertiest]] 14:15, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is time tested. Shortly after it&#039;s implementation Infinite Stratos picked up it&#039;s pace of translation as did Itsuka Tenma and Baka Test, I will concede that for some reason it didn&#039;t work on Hidan no Aria, but it still has a high success rate. Toaru and Chrome Shelled don&#039;t count because they are near completion. About the chapters title issue. I can easily implement further variable tags that can take chapter names from writers and thus display them like the nav table of old. Even though I won&#039;t like that but if you guys say that you prefer it that way I can do it. Or I can Implement a system like the one in the [[Template:Nav]]. To have both links and have chapter names be generated automatically. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 16:20, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I surf/go back to check up on a previous fact. For example in chapter 9 of volume 4 the people from Volume 2 make an appearance. I can go back to refresh my memory of them. And sorry I don&#039;t just read a story once. I find that I understand new things each time I read them (like foreshadowings, predictions, etc). Each time I read through I find new and more interesting tidbits. And I am not alone in this. Each and every person goes through stories more than once, either due to the aforementioned reasons or just because they want to read through it again. And it is not definite that they will read through all the volumes linearly. Some might want to skip certain volumes. And I for one find going back to the main page tiresome. It&#039;s unnecessary. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 16:33, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Though &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. Infinte Stratos was pretty much because Ping joined in. The content is rather easy. So is Baka-Test. I don&#039;t know about Itsuten though. However, the implentation of nav bar coincided with the summer vacations, if I remember well, so it&#039;s another factor.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. OK, fine, some do use the &#039;skip a few chapters&#039; function. However, from what I see from the comments, no one else needs it really.&lt;br /&gt;
[[User:Kira0802|Kira]] ([[User_talk:Kira0802|Talk]]) 16:59, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Yeah, I&#039;m not sure that counts as proof, since the cause-effect could really go either way. Rather, I have a feeling it is because the translation speed picked up that there was more attention which led to the navbar being implemented. After all, I only see this navbar in the most popular novels...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And I was talking about the chapter names in the expanded navbar. I don&#039;t really care about chapter names in the next/prev because the only time I need chapter names is when I&#039;m looking back for stuff. I don&#039;t think this navbar can easily have chapter name support in the expanded mode because some of them are really long. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;ll try to stop writing anything more here since my stance is neutral anyways... --[[User:Jonathanasdf|jonathanasdf]] 17:45, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;About being not needed:&#039;&#039; Dude, that&#039;s how all new things start out. People think they don&#039;t need them but give a while of use and it becomes indispensable. A few centuries ago people didn&#039;t need electricity or natural gas as much as they do now. But now, they start rioting if it&#039;s cut off for too long.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;About Translation Speed:&#039;&#039; Ping was present before the template was added as well but only two volumes were translated. However after the Infinite Stratos Nav was implemented I believe a fire was sparked in Ping. I believe the redlinks were the motivation or rather the inspiration he needed. Of course I don&#039;t think this method affects everyone. But I&#039;m sure it does affect some. and their example will move others, kind of like those cartoons where a little rock knocks down a bigger one which in turn knocks over an even bigger one, thus triggering an avalanche. We need to motivate people, even if the most mundane or subliminal methods are present I believe we should grasp and use them. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 17:49, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Even if it is circumstantial evidence at best I have faith in this method. About chapter names: True it would be difficult to implement full chapter names. But it is possible in some cases. However we are not talking abpout nav templates as a whole. Only for SAO. Please bear that in mind. And SAO does not have many named chapters. So that isn&#039;t an issue here. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 17:55, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
...Zero, why would Ping scroll the nav bar anyways to see the red links? In my case, I post the translation, then I say &#039;Goodbye&#039; and leave. Also, he posts his translation progression in the forums, in a portfolio. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For the chapter names, I&#039;d like to say that I want to know where I&#039;m heading when I press &#039;forward&#039;. Especially when there&#039;s 24 chapters in a volume that you don&#039;t care to remember which chapter you are on. [[User:Kira0802|Kira]] ([[User_talk:Kira0802|Talk]]) 21:38, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Seeing red once would be enough, it stays in your head. Plus it is a fact that the pace picked up after implementation. And like I said I can add the next/prev page name display functionality if you guys really want it. But that&#039;s something to be requested on the [[Template Talk:SAO Nav]] page. It&#039;s actually quite simple to implement that. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 00:45, 30 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
------------&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
OK, here are the facts, ingnoring the IS argument since it was mostly because Ping started translating like a madafter he finished Index. They obviously show the opposite of what you are saying. Here&#039;s my statement: &#039;&#039;&#039;The translation pace does not get faster if there is a nav bar of added, with all the red links and else. It might even slow the pace.&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Itsuten: Volume 1 got completed 7 days earlier than Volume 3. Volume 1 was done before the nav bar was added, and volume 3, after. Can&#039;t say if it worked or not, but it&#039;s more penching towards the &#039;no&#039; side.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Hidan no Aria: The comparison before/after is obvious. It didn&#039;t work.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Dantalian: What is the number of chapters completed since the nav bar was added? 0. It probably didn&#039;t work.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Chrome Shelled Regios: 41k done in around four months. Around 178k before for the same length of time. Didn&#039;t work.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Toaru Majutsu no Index, NT and SS: I can&#039;t find the updates page, but it probably changed nothing. However, Ping retired shortly after, so the place probably got slower. Following that reasoning, I say that it has less translation after. Though let&#039;s put this in the gray zone if you really want to insist.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Baka To test: Volume7 has been done in 78 days. Volume 3.5 in 76. Hwever, since the nav bar was added during the translation of 7, soI can&#039;t use that. As for Volume 7.5, I didn&#039;t calculate it as different chapters were done in different orders, and that I use the beginning of the first chapter and the creation of the full text as references.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Sword Art Online: During the time the bar was used, there were no completed chapters. Did not work.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, you argument does not stand, Zero. [[User:Kira0802|Kira]] ([[User_talk:Kira0802|Talk]]) 15:45, 30 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

:Finally, someone who does his homework. I see, but I still hold that it does motivate others at a subconscious level (so much so that people don&#039;t realize it, normal rate is that it takes half a year to translate a single volume). It does not change the fact that SAO Nav will make navigation easier. Does it? Easier navigation leads to more popularity in websites which in turn will lead to faster development here. &#039;&#039;&#039;[http://www.mardiros.net/good-navigation.html That is a fact]&#039;&#039;&#039; (See &#039;&#039;Less clicks the better&#039;&#039;). Jeez it&#039;s even drilled into every Computer Science student while discussing website development. Just look at the sidebar on the left. Why do you think they listed and linked the project names there when they could have made a separate page with the list? Answer: for faster navigation. Just because you won&#039;t use it, it&#039;s not right to ignore those who do. If you think there are people who would use it, shouldn&#039;t you accommodate them? Or will you ignore them just because they don&#039;t think like you. That&#039;s why I integrated next prev in all the nav templates, so that &#039;&#039;both sides would be happy&#039;&#039;.

&lt;br /&gt;
:You also mentioned (many posts ago) that the SAO Nav would collapse slowly. That&#039;s a personal problem. Since coding is used for the collapsing function, it stands that it&#039;s the fault of your computer alone. Nowadays everyone has at least a Core 2 Duo level processor. Those who don&#039;t are way behind the times. If you also have a Core 2 Duo or higher level processor then you must have CPU % intensive processes running on your computer in the background (try terminating them if there are, just be sure to check if they aren&#039;t a critical process on the net). But even if you don&#039;t and there is some other reason for the slowness that is no concrete reason to shelve faster navigation. The bar is at the bottom. By the time you would reach the bottom of the page (while reading) it would already have been collapsed. Like I said before it might not seem necessary now but give it a few weeks and it&#039;ll become indispensable. That&#039;s how it always goes with every new thing.

&lt;br /&gt;
:Toaru and Chrome Shelled Regios were already near completion before the navbar was implemented. The navbar does not seem to work for nearly completed projects for some reason. I acknowledge that weak point. I also acknowledged that the navbar doesn&#039;t affect everyone but those it does effect would in turn affect others. As for SAO I don&#039;t think enough time was given before it was taken down. Thus that cannot be included. Hidan no Aria: well I won&#039;t say anything on those guys. They&#039;d probably take offense. But at least they didn&#039;t reject the template so they must have either found it useful or didn&#039;t care. Come to think about it if you don&#039;t care either way then there isn&#039;t any problem is there?

:Yes. Yes. Yes. I am a &amp;lt;big&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;BIG&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;/big&amp;gt; fan. But I can&#039;t translate (although I can be an editor/proofreader, but I don&#039;t think it&#039;s enough). So I did what I could and made a nav template with advanced features. I wanted to help in any way I could. And what happened? A few days later all the changes I made were removed just because it looked slightly different from before. Look, with progress comes change. You can&#039;t help it. If you can&#039;t adapt then we&#039;ll just stay stuck in the same place forever. If you google it you&#039;ll find thousands of articles by famous website developers saying one thing. The lesser the number of page loadings required to get to a goal the better, aka &amp;quot;less clicks the better&amp;quot;. Why do you think the sidebar with links to all projects exist? Why do you think that the chapters are transcluded into one volume page after said volume is completed? Answer: people want to reach their goal quickly and with less page loading. Please, I humbly request that I be allowed to apply SAO Nav. It will speed up page navigation for sure, thus it is &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;beneficial&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039; &#039;&#039;&#039;(not detrimental)&#039;&#039;&#039; to the SAO Project.

Think I have an idea about the resistance, your version is nice but it&#039;s a lot of work to update. I think they want a standardized version that&#039;s easy to use, even for people with not a lot of wiki knowledge. Or do you promise to make them forever?

&lt;br /&gt;
:I can promise to make and update them for a long time. And I promise that before I leave I will train a successor that can do it as good as or even better than me. I can&#039;t say forever since life doesn&#039;t have any guarantees. Plus actually the templates are understandable by anyone who just sits down and looks at the code properly. That&#039;s how I learned, at least (ie: By looking at others work and understanding how it is done). Furthermore I think there are candidates for my successor here already. Vaelis who designed [[Template:Nav]] for instance, there&#039;s also larethian. And what do you mean it is a lot of work to update? For a new volume, all you have to do is copy the code for the previous row, make the necessary changes (ie: change the volume number and chapter links) and viola! It isn&#039;t tough at all. The people at other projects have already learned how to update them. Just a few days ago [[Template:Hidan no Aria Nav]] was updated with a full volume and not by me.

== About Volume 6 Chapter 13 ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Excerpted from a dialogue from Vol. 6 Chapter 13:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kikuoka: &amp;quot;...That was really shocking. I thought that this little thing was the ALO support system «Navagiation Pixie»... but to gather so much information and make conclusions at such a short time. Little girl...are you interested in &#039;&#039;&#039;pu&#039;&#039;&#039;...no, do you want to work for the «Virtual Division»?&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think it should be &amp;quot;la&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;ra&amp;quot; instead of &amp;quot;pu&amp;quot;. The &amp;quot;ra&amp;quot; part is actually a foreshadowing to the next main arc, Alicization.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I didn&#039;t really understand what he meant to say so I left it as the translator had it. I think the &amp;quot;pu&amp;quot; might be part of &amp;quot;public&amp;quot;?

== volume 8 chapter 2 name ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

That probably makes more sense, but &amp;quot;Caliber&amp;quot; seems to be an intentional English spelling. It is probably meant to be a pun. [[User:Thinklife|ThinkLife]] 10:53, 4 January 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I originally had it as Calibur for the sword name we are familiar with, but I happen to glance at the last chapter while counting parts, and sigh. The author went and explained the name of the sword when Sinon asked about it. That&#039;s how it ended up as Caliber.

== Asuna&#039;s Avatar - a mystery ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Correct me if I&#039;m wrong, but didn&#039;t it say that Asuna did NOT buy the NervGear she uses when playing SAO? If so, why is her avatar a perfect image of herself? Didn&#039;t the sellers only scan the people who actually BOUGHT the NervGear? Since Asuna just used the NervGear which wasn&#039;t hers... wouldn&#039;t that make her avatar look like someone else? @___@&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Nah, you remember how Cline said when you start up you have to calibrate it to yourself? So when she put it on, she had to go through the calibration, thus it looks like her. [[User:Syaoran|Syaoran]] 01:14, 17 January 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I doubt that NervGear has the scanning functionality. As a specialized gear, it wouldn&#039;t need scanning functionality for normal game play. Another manga with a similar virtual reality background [http://www.batoto.net/comic/_/comics/yureka-r101 Yureka] has a similar avatar system and has a separate body scanning step as well. -[[User:Milki|milki]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Well, my evidence was these lines:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;There are high density signal sensors in the NERvGear covering our whole head. So it can tell not only how our brains look, but our faces too...&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
And&lt;br /&gt;
Calibration was where the NERvGear measured «how much you had to move your hand to reach your body». This was done to reproduce the sense of feel accurately within the game. So to say, it was almost as if the NERvGear had data about our exact figures saved inside itself. [[User:Syaoran|Syaoran]] 02:04, 17 January 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I suspect that, while the NERvGear would be able to scan the face to reproduce facial expressions to an extent, it does not do the same for the rest of the body. Calibration could probably be done by just measuring nerve signals - move your hand up towards you until you touch your body, and it would just recognize your hand/arm movement until you touch your body. -[[User:Milki|milki]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Actually, currently there is a machine that can calculate your body muscle and fat composition by running electricity though your body and it is just as big as a regular scale. Moreover it is easy to obtain your height and leg length through the calibration process. By applying this data, it is pretty easy to build a body that is similar to your current body.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Another theories is to use ultrasonic (or supersonic) sound wave to obtain your body image. NERvGear can emit microwave strong enough to melt your brain so it is not entirely impossible.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My concern is how the did it obtain the character hair style since the NERvGear is like a bike helmet ^^!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is only my speculation, anybody whom actually an expert in this field please feel free to correct--[[User:Hayate-sama|Hayate-sama]] 13:11, 17 January 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The NERvGear is an mini MRI/NMR (for scanning, and pulsed magnetic stimulation for feedback) so it can scan the head and face. No idea how it gets eye and hair color though. It might be able to find out the lenght of the hair and how curly/strait it is by the hight percition scanning. To even work the NERvGear needs submilimeter acuracy so scanning the hair will be easy. (Anon)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For the hair style: I think hair style is something the players can change by themselves, like how one can pick up movable objects, I think combing would be allowed at least. The only difference is hair color which, from what I know from Aria in the Starless Night (SAO SS), is customizable via a monster drop item. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 22:57, 17 January 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For the body, currently it is possible to take multiple photographs from different angles and compile them to make holograms, thus it should be possible to do the same here (especially since the tech is way advanced here). All one would need to make sure is that the height is given which could be used as a scale for the 3d photo. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 22:57, 17 January 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The skin tone, eye color etc could also be derived from photos, no mystery at all. You can be assured since I am a Computer Science graduate. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 22:59, 17 January 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wasn&#039;t there a part where they said her bro bought the NGear and the game, but could not play it as he was overseas, so she was the first to play it? In other words, Asuna would be the first user of the game, and it would be calibrated to her. This assumes that the brother is not a beater, but even then, beta accounts were deleted or reset at the commence of the full game. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If we are discussing about how the body type, height, weight, sex etc was captured, well, they did say they had to key in certain particulars, and run their hands around their bodies. About the Hair styles and color, perhaps its more of what NG reads the mind as being the most comfortable with, through reading of the brainwaves of users in the first hour. Afterall, its not like all the characters in SAO have black hair, but multicolored, which I&#039;m sure would not be true IRL... then again, this is aniverse after all... --[[User:Gabgrave|Gabgrave]] 23:23, 17 January 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
@Zero Yeah, you can use pictures to create a 3D object but the problem is how to take them ^^! unless you have a mirror as big as you, otherwise, it impossible to take those pictures yourself.--[[User:Hayate-sama|Hayate-sama]] 01:13, 18 January 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Please note that SAO occurs in a more advanced world. Furthermore I said that height would be given (ie: entered as a perimeter) so that it can be used as a scale. Thus resizing the image would be possible. Nowadays there are graphic plugins for GIMP and Photoshop that allow resizing (blowing up of pictures, or more simply, making them bigger) without loss of quality. In an advanced world it would be a better process and more commonly used (ie: common knowledge). The main point here is that what we consider specialized knowledge would be common in the setting of SAO. After all, &#039;&#039;virtual reality has become real&#039;&#039; in the setting.

A famous quote from Arthur C. Clarke: &#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic&amp;quot;&#039;&#039;&#039;. You shouldn&#039;t think so deeply on it. Also it&#039;s a fact that as time will pass, what is considered advanced now will be considered common in the future. A general purpose computer, at the beginning, was a machine that was superbly expensive so much so that the normal person could not own it. Nowadays it&#039;s in every home. Well that&#039;s over the span of 60 years. But with things like [http://www.howstuffworks.com/invisibility-cloak.htm invisibility cloaks] being developed, you really can&#039;t say that what I&#039;m saying is wrong.

According to BCOFM, it will be release within a week (or month) around now. Dunno if it&#039;s true though as their TL drop dead midway&lt;br /&gt;

KR is still translating it. I just finished my editing portion on it to the current page he is at. The chapter is 98 pages long and he has 21 more pages to go [[User:Lp113|Lp113]] 22:56, 6 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
98 pages? Seriously? No wonder it take longer than usual to translate. I&#039;ll wait for it to be released, because it feels weird to skip over it and read the volume 6.

There is chapter 6 and 7 in volume 5. There is also a chapter 7 in volume 6, that I wanted to make into prologue, but our admin Vaelis changed it back to like the book when he fixed the above mistake.

Aaaaah I see. Thank you for clarifying and keep up the good work, it&#039;s a lot more fun to read the properly translated versions over the machine translation.&lt;br /&gt;

&#039;&#039;&#039;PLEASE TRANSLATE VOL. 5 CHAPTER 6 :D (or upload what&#039;s done of it); It feels very awkward to simply skip 2/3 of a chapter.&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I don&#039;t mean to sound rude or anything but could the translators focus on finishing chapters 6 and 7 of Volume 5 , I do wanna read read aria in the starless night but even more than that I wanna finish reading Phantom bullet and there is just 2 untranslated chapters preventing me from reading an entire volume. Again I&#039;m sorry if I&#039;m acting rude, and I know that its not easy to translate. [[Username:Leonzell (not registered here) 1:44 AM GMT+10&lt;br /&gt;

Given the previous banter from certain users about this topic in the recent past, this does come off as a little rude.

If you cannot wait, the first chapter of book 6 does cover the events that happen in those missing chapters in summary. You do not really need to worry if you will miss anything important, the main plot is covered.

Actually, I still patiently waiting for chapter 6 to be fully translated, even though I have an urge to just skip it and read the volume 6.&lt;br /&gt;
But....how should I say it.... It feels &#039;incomplete&#039; if I just skip it (I&#039;m a bit perfectionist, sorry). So I beg you, if you have free time (which must be hard to find since you also have real life), please, would you consider to fully translate the chapter 6?

 terms - «» or &amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;&#039;&#039; (two single quotes)&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt; (understand that «» is for SAO terms,&lt;br /&gt;
 but if &amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt; is used, I don&#039;t know if its intentional or should be «»)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 quotes - &amp;quot;&amp;quot; or “” or &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
 Well, while writing on a piece of paper with a pen “” and ’ are used&lt;br /&gt;
 however &amp;quot;&amp;quot; are known as typewriter quotes and are also completely acceptable&lt;br /&gt;
 But &amp;quot;&amp;quot; or &#039; takes up less space so it is preferred for use in Media wiki based websites like this one.&lt;br /&gt;
 as for &amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt; These are used to &#039;&#039;italicize&#039;&#039; the text. Please ignore them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In other words it doesn&#039;t really matter unless you want to optimize space usage since they both look the same no matter which one you use. So please ignore it. Though the standard on all mediawiki based sites has &#039;&#039;&#039;always&#039;&#039;&#039; been &amp;quot;&amp;quot; and &#039;.

&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m a little confused. In the GGO arc... Is it &#039;&#039;&#039;Bullet&#039;&#039;&#039; of Bullets or &#039;&#039;&#039;Ballet&#039;&#039;&#039; of Bullets? Considering how Battle Tournaments are normally be named, &#039;&#039;&#039;Bullet&#039;&#039;&#039; of Bullets makes less sense than &#039;&#039;&#039;Ballet&#039;&#039;&#039; of Bullets (which actually fits more as far as tournament names go). Reason: fighting and dancing have often been interlinked. In medieval times strong noble warriors were also known for being good dancers since the movements used in battle are often similar to dance movements. See: [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capoeira Capoeira], [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calinda Calinda]. Oh I&#039;m getting off track. Anyways, since fighting and dancing are similar it&#039;s more likely the tournament is named &#039;&#039;&#039;Ballet of Bullets&#039;&#039;&#039; (even if guns are now used, it has historical meaning).

&lt;br /&gt;
Greetings. When I visited the author old site I saw several items that might be SAO SS.(well some are already being translated.)&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Like [Aria in the Starless Sky], [Absolute Solitude], [Fortune Star], [Resettable Saver], SS5-[A Murder Case in the Area], SS7-[Cradle of the Moon], and [Waterworks] (not sure about some of the title since I&#039;m using Google translate.)&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Aria in the Starless Sky&amp;amp;A Murder Case in the Area are already on translation. If it isn&#039;t too troublesome,may I ask if the other will also be put into translation somewhere in the near future? Thanks before.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m very intersting in those you mentioned as I have never run into them before, could you check if there&#039;re actual text inside? Of all those, I only have Cradle of the Moon, which is SS based on the Alizication arc, which is still untranslated so it has low priority for now. -- [[User:BeginnerXP|BeginnerXP]] 19:34, 15 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

Volume 9 is the version that is published, the web version is the version that was online. --[[User:Pryun|Pryun]] 01:12, 18 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ok.. so is the web version not part of the SAO universe with the kirito and asuna that we know? or its a separate story all together? [[User:Kyo171|Kyo171]] 01:19, 18 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The web version is similar to the published version, but not exactly the same. Any more information I can give is a spoiler, but if you don&#039;t mind spoilers you can go look at the images of volume 9. --[[User:Pryun|Pryun]] 01:23, 18 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hmm... roger that, coz i was confused looking at the images in vol 9 i see kirito and asuna that we are all familiar with, but in the web version there&#039;s a disclaimer saying that the kirito is not the kirito that we know of. I am talking about the roughly translated &amp;quot;Alicization Arc (Web Version)&amp;quot; in the mainpage btw. [[User:Kyo171|Kyo171]] 01:30, 18 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Alicization web version chapter 1 on the wiki is practically the same as the Prologue I of vol 9, author did a lot of minor changes including rewriting in a few places, but the overall summary is still the same. The reason readers felt it wasn&#039;t related to Kirito we know will be explained in the later chapters, but he&#039;s certainly the same Kirito. Alicization is currently the largest arc of SAO series (and I assume it&#039;d be the final main arc of the series too) and would need 5-6 volumes to cover its entire arc -- [[User:BeginnerXP|BeginnerXP]] 09:19, 18 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
ahhh.. thanks for the clarification, i have one more question, when would be the most optimum time to read the side story &amp;quot;versus&amp;quot;, the accel world crossover side story? I am currently on vol 5. --[[User:Kyo171|Kyo171]] 09:42, 18 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m not sure about Accel World side, but for SAO, there&#039;s no reference to anything significant after Fairy Dance, so I think it&#039;s fine to read it right after vol.4, but the story actually took place just slightly before Alicization arc, so author actually wants readers to read it after vol.8 (Accel World vol.10 released after SAO vol.8) -- [[User:BeginnerXP|BeginnerXP]] 10:27, 18 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

Aria in the Starless Night Side Story is when Kirito and Asuna meet for the first time in SAO. But do both or just Asuna forget about the other? In the other volumes it seems that Asuna got interested in Kirito after she saw him living (lazing around on the field) the game just as he would in reality (ie: the events in Vol8 Ch1, this is mentioned in other volumes too). Did Asuna forget about the events in Aria or what? Or did the author make a slight miss? [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  13:35, 21 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It might be best to think of it like they simply met at a coffee shop, sure, they were fighting alongside each other, but that wasn&#039;t enough to get them past a formal acquaintanceship. [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] 14:24, 21 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Heeh~ Sure &#039;&#039;and the whole bath thing just went over everybody&#039;s head~. Yup~ I&#039;m sure that was something easy to forget~.&#039;&#039; Like that&#039;d ever happen. That&#039;s why I&#039;m confused. He was the guy who introduced her to how food could taste better, he was the guy who taught her that there were better living conditions than INNs, he was the guy who taught her not to overkill and how to choose better weapons. I can get them being at the level of formal acquaintances till that point. What I&#039;m confused about is that in the other volumes there is no mention of her meeting him before the lazing around incident. Like they never even met before that. Weird isn&#039;t it? Well maybe it will be mentioned in vol8 chap1. I can&#039;t wait for the translation. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  16:39, 21 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think there was though, although it was a little subtle, back in the first volume, when it talked about Asuna going around and recruiting the boss assault team. [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] 17:32, 21 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I dunno, Asuna might have blocked off some of that since it wasn&#039;t an all pleasant experience for her. Plus she still did keep that I want to clear this as fast as possible attitude til she met him in the upper floors again, so maybe she just forgot about it while trying to clear? I will agree with you, it is a pretty bad plot hole since you gotta think about it a lot to find a reason. [[User:Syaoran|Syaoran]] 18:10, 21 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I don&#039;t think that it is really a plot hole, as aria is a side story, but then again, recently I have been feeling like Kawahara has been giving them too much time together in side stories, if they were in a group of seven in aria, it would have been much better I believe. [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] 18:13, 21 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was pretty weird that Asuna and Kirito don&#039;t remember this some minor details have also been left out while in volumes but this meeting is just too big of an event so that they could forget but well seeing it is just a side story I guess it should be just fine as just seeing it in a way like you have said before Asuna after not seeing him again just started going crazy wanting to clear the game and Kirito being a Kirito just kinda forgot since the next time they saw each other took place about 1 year and 5 months later??[[User:Lelouch545|Lelouch545]]3:54, 11 Jule (PCT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It&#039;s possible that the author hadn&#039;t thought of any of these events when he wrote Volume 1. There are plenty of other inconsistencies throughout the side-stories, too. Since the side-stories are added after the main arc is over, it&#039;s best not to delve in too deep --[[Special:Contributions/92.239.153.44|92.239.153.44]] 06:21, 11 June 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Well seems they made a drastic fix in the anime. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  16:31, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thinking of it , they never said once that Asuna falled in love with Kirito at the first meeting right ? They said she loved him when she had seen him &amp;quot;living&amp;quot; the game , but being clearers , it was obvious that they had met each other a while before , for Bosses figths , while mapping or other game contents, so the two of them meeting after one month of game isn&#039;t weird right ? For the memories, do you recall all the things you&#039;ve done with your acquaintances ? I can&#039;t of course , and in SAO  I think there&#039;s a lot more of memories than in our real life, so memories about an other player they met and isn&#039;t that important for them isn&#039;t really worthy of being talked about in the main plot.

== Material Editions ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Material Editions? Is this the name of a new volume? Or a web volume? Or what? I need to know so that I can properly sort the info on the wikipedia page. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  17:07, 29 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Material Edition (ME) series is a series of &#039;&#039;&#039;doujinshis&#039;&#039;&#039; created by Kawahara Reki himself using the pen name &amp;quot;Kunori Fumio&amp;quot; (he used that pen name when he was writing the web novel of SAO). Most but not all of the volumes of the ME series are side stories. He sells the ME series at the Comitia market (not Comic Market) and also some doujinshi shops.&lt;br /&gt;
Below are the list of Material Edition volumes:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* ME1 - The Progressor (a short manga chapter drawn by Kawahara himself)&lt;br /&gt;
* ME2 - Early Characters&lt;br /&gt;
* ME3 - Ceramic Heart &lt;br /&gt;
* ME4 - Cold Hand, Warm Heart&lt;br /&gt;
* ME5 - Salvia&lt;br /&gt;
* ME6 - Algade Showdown&lt;br /&gt;
* ME7 - Continuation. Aria of the Starless Night&lt;br /&gt;
* ME8 - First Chapter of Rondo (second floor side story)&lt;br /&gt;
* ME9 - Monochrome Concerto&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
ME9 - Monochrome Concerto. yes, third floor, I&#039;d do it if I can find raws.--[[User:Pryun|Pryun]] - [[User_talk:Pryun|Talk]] 21:17, 29 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

Regarding Pryun-san question about Sword Art Online: Material Editions 1.In my opinion,if it&#039;s allowed,please include the ME1.As it&#039;s a gaiden that&#039;s made by the same author supplementing the canon storyline.It&#039;ll be a sad thing if it&#039;s not posted and no manga reader site have posted it on theirs.--[[User:User753|User753]]-[[User talk:User753|Talk]]- 00:41, 1 May 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

Should we just post links to batoto on the main page at ME 1 and 3? It seems a waste to do the same work twice. --[[User:Saganatsu|Saganatsu]] 17:42, 2 June 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Based on what I have seen so far I believe that ME1: The Progressors should be named &amp;quot;The Clearers&amp;quot; instead since that is what the title is talking about in regards to the story and all the translations so far have used the term &amp;quot;Clearer&amp;quot; instead of &amp;quot;Progressor&amp;quot; --[[User:Arctosa|Arctosa]] 10:43, 10 June 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
English text on every page of it says &amp;quot;The Progressors&amp;quot;. We know it&#039;s weird.--[[User:Saganatsu|Saganatsu]] 12:54, 10 June 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wouldn&#039;t it be better to rename the chapter pages to include ME#. Example: &#039;&#039;&#039;Sword Art Online:ME9:Monochrome Concerto&#039;&#039;&#039; I mean now that Rondo has continued, so will Monochrome Concerto. It will avoid clashing in the future since you&#039;re probably gonna insert the same include tags as you have in First Chapter of Rondo and then the page name conflict with the side story, y&#039;know. Plus it will become easier to categorize the ME chapters and compile them in the Material Editions volume page when they&#039;re all done.

== Congrats ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just wanted to thank all you guys for working hard and translating the SAO series.&lt;br /&gt;
Now that nearly everything is translated I wanted to ask, how far along is the novel in Japan? Cause when I try to look it up I cant read the pages cause they&#039;re all in Japanese D:&lt;br /&gt;
And is the &amp;quot;cradle of the moon&amp;quot; chapter going to be translated or not, cause from what I read it&#039;s included in the Alicization arc.&lt;br /&gt;
If it is I think it should be removed from the page, as everything else is 100% and this is the only non-translated part so it sorta ruins it when you scroll down and see everything.&lt;br /&gt;
Thanks again to all the translators and editors! --[[User:Mufarasu|Mufarasu]] 13:31, 16 June 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

If it&#039;s removed. It could be more easily forgotten or shelved indefinitely.

&lt;br /&gt;
Better than having the story butchered or cut short in the middle. I&#039;ve always thought 12-13 eps was too little. Besides, the wait will make it all the more worthwhile. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  12:59, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Very true, I feel that if they released them all at once, I would die before I got to watch any. Although, I am actually quite worried, mainly about the few disconnects in the story, sure they have a chance to correct them, but I want things to progress along with the novels, such as Asuna, I have this bad feeling that they are going to try to get them together right away, which I believe would make things worse. Also the others, if they try to make a harem ending, or some kind of ending where it is unclear who Kazuto ends up with, that will piss me off. Waiting avidly for the new episode.

&lt;br /&gt;
Urgh. Well, ep 2 is okay, I guess. But I don&#039;t like the fact that they removed so much. It&#039;s like the depth of the story has been filled in till the plot becomes shallow (kinda like how one fills in a perfectly good water well).

I&#039;m proficient enough in &#039;&#039;&#039;verbal&#039;&#039;&#039; japanese. Plus it helps to read the novel. Damn it&#039;s like they summarized the whole side story. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  14:28, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

Sorry to burst your bubble... but they ended Aria in one ep. And they cut out a lot of stuff. This is why I hate story butchering. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  14:38, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
There&#039;s no point if the anime is a mere summarization of the LN! It&#039;s like draining the juice out of an orange and forcing others to eat just the soft inner-skin. Well... it was okay for those who haven&#039;t read the LN especially Kirito&#039;s really cool part, but I don&#039;t like it that they cut all the rest of the plot (don&#039;t worry I&#039;m not gonna spoil it). If you squeeze the plot too much it ruins it. Sigh, and they stuck to the plot with Accel World so I was looking forward and hoping... Well lets hope they do better next ep. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  14:57, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I have not seen the episode yet, so I can not say too much, but remember that Accel World had some things that were missing as well, not so much the plot, but things that helped pull things together. [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] - [[User_talk:Draeke|Talk]] - 15:02, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And there is a point, and the point is the orange, it is the taste of the orange, the feel of the orange, the experience of eating the orange, whether it be juice, fruit, or some viscous substance consisting of orange, orange is orange, and it tastes like orange. [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] - [[User_talk:Draeke|Talk]] - 15:07, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
True for the first. False for the second. The inner skin of an orange itself doesn&#039;t taste like orange you know. I&#039;m talking about that thin white skin you see after you peel off the thick outer orange colored skin. You know, the one that holds the inner juiciness together. Besides, I&#039;m saying it&#039;s okay. It&#039;s just that I don&#039;t like the fact that they removed all that good stuff. You&#039;ll know what I&#039;m talking about when the subs are out. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  15:14, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Alright, I was just trying to get my point across, I will be sure to watch it, and I may be disappointed, but I also might not, who knows? And for that second one, the white stuff does taste like orange, at least a little bit. [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] - [[User_talk:Draeke|Talk]] - 15:20, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Like drops from a full bottle, true. And don&#039;t worry, I understand. Soon, you&#039;ll understand what I&#039;m talking about as well. I&#039;ll explain in detail once the subs are out. That way you won&#039;t get spoiled and can look forward to it. The ep 2 is good, but it could have been much better. That&#039;s my stance. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  15:37, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Personnaly , I think Aria was made in the anime and cut in that way just to help the new comers with SAO to understand more about Kirito and not to give the whole SS scenario. 	[[User:Eldivah|Eldivah]] 16:05, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

Hmm. Come to think of it. That might be it. I mean there was a slight conflict between the stories of the Aria SS and the main story aka volume 1. See a few sections above if you want to know/be spoiled. I&#039;ll explain after the sub is out, but if you take into account what was needed to be done to fix that discrepancy then. Yes, I see. If it&#039;s that reason then it&#039;s alright somewhat, I guess. But there are a few parts that didn&#039;t need to be removed even if that were the case. Still, I&#039;m warming up to the ep 2 now. I suppose time heals all wounds isn&#039;t an exaggeration after all.

Wow, that was something else, yes, content was thrown out, Diabel was not as bad as he was in the novel, and Kirito was awesome, but mainly when he was berating the other beta testers, that laugh, wonderful, that was awesome, Egil is cool, I could very easily see the foundation that they put for the future, and finally, holy crap, they are jumping straight to Red-Nosed Reindeer? That is a massive jump. And poor Argo, completely cast aside. [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] - [[User_talk:Draeke|Talk]] - 17:38, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
See. And besides, Red nosed reindeer was next chronologically. I mean Rondo and Crescendo aren&#039;t completely published yet. Well there&#039;s not much in Reindeer so let&#039;s hope they don&#039;t cut things out this time. At least cutting down Kirito and Asuna&#039;s time in Aria serves to address the problem I mentioned in [[Talk:Sword_Art_Online#It&#039;s weird]]. But why&#039;d they cut down the whole plot Diabel cooked up along with Argo&#039;s scenes? I wanted to see Kiriemon at least.

I agree completely, but I also thoroughly enjoyed that episode. Aria did have a really deep story, and they just brushed over it. Oh well, still good, lets hope that they don&#039;t just kill everyone off in the Black Cats of the Full Moon immediately, and keep them around for at least one episode before they die.

&lt;br /&gt;
I think that&#039;s pretty simple , letting the plot of Diabel and Argo must introduce a friend character to the main one , but never use him again , that&#039;s a big problem for the public, next , the plot of Diabel about the Anneal Blade will just drag a lot of questions if they don&#039;t add the whole story about the quest to obtain it , explain the whole thing about the Beta-Test , why Diabel knows of Kirito etc , and then that will be 5 episodes of things unrelated to the main plot or to Kirito&#039;s mental state and settings [[User:Eldivah|Eldivah]] 17:59, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

That might be pretty hard to handle a perspective drawing with a cloak ,how to put it , if she was just wearing a normal outfit or if the rapier was outside the cloak , we won&#039;t have this strange feeling , but , they had to draw it like the rapier comming across the cloak and this ended by having the impression of the rapier being stabbed into Asuna instead.

&lt;br /&gt;
Umm, okay, where did you learn about this? And if so, then how the heck do they compress Red-Nosed Reindeer into one episode, I could see that stretch three or four episodes. [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] - [[User_talk:Draeke|Talk]] - 19:16, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I couldn&#039;t, if they did ALL of Aria (granted they took some stuff out) in one episode then doing the Red-Nosed Reindeer is more than doable in one episode. I wonder tho if they will do the Black Cats portion and the revival portion separate or together, since they could do it as a current event or as a flashback. That said since it seems they are going with one episode for everything like the Murder Case in episode 5 and Sicilia story in episode 4, then its likely they are gonna use the second half for ALO, which all things considering isn&#039;t that bad. I wouldn&#039;t want a full series for ALO (considering its the worst arc imo) and the ending is more conclusive then the end of the Aincard arc.

Tag my name? In any case i got my information from episode titles, i was told this from a friend but i have no reason to doubt it as i knew the episode 3 title was Red-Nosed Reindeer since before episode 1, episode 4 is supposedly Black Swordsman and such and such. As for the timeline, the anime is simply going chronologically based of the novels events, since after all considering the way volume 1 and 2 are its best to do it chronologically, i&#039;m just curious as to how they are going to use flashbacks as they could see animate &amp;quot;First Day&amp;quot; but as a flashback.

I copied his user data as well as the post time/date from history and added it. And duh, there is a high chance of volume 2 stories&#039; episode conversions being named after their chapters.

Man, they had to change so much in the second episode. I think it would have been much better if they used the actual ending of Aria, and actually show Kirito in the second floor during the sunset and all that.[[User:Jasou|Jasou]] 12:10, 15 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

I&#039;m just wondering, what&#039;s the general frequency of the releases?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:I um... watched the first episode of SAO anime, and then I suddenly flung myself to read all the translated LN for SAO... and just finished reading everything except for volume 10 (untranslated), some of the lower sidestories, and material editions...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::that said, I&#039;m just wondering...&lt;br /&gt;

== Adding Reference? ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While I was translating SAO into Vietnamese version, I happened to find out that the name of Klein&#039;s guild has a meaning behind it (it actually refers to a way of commanding army of Takeda Shingen), so I wanna add a specific reference for it (I get this info from a book, and haven&#039;t found any website mention it, so I guess I&#039;ll just write it down). But do I need a permission to do that? And if I do, where can I get it? I have also checked the RAW to make sure Kanjis are correct anw.

Is anyone here planning to work on Progressive Vol 1? I recently got my ordered copy, and as expected it covers from Aria to Rondo, so I understand if there&#039;s a lack of incentive to translate it considering that the Aria SS has already been translated here and Pryun is still translating Rondo. However, while the Progressive chapters seem to stick pretty close to the original web versions, there are still clear differences, as evidenced by how Aria in Progressive is divided into 15 parts instead of the 20 in web version and Rondo has 14 instead of 40. (Rondo is still about 300 pages long though, so I&#039;m not sure if the author just reorganized it or not.) I was just wondering how the issue was going to be dealt with.&lt;br /&gt;

:Also, if there are plans to eventually work on Progressive, could I add a sub-section for it on the main page and upload the illustrations I scanned from vol 1? (Admittedly, they&#039;re not the best quality, but I think they&#039;re more than good enough until someone is able to provide a better version.) --[[User:Eternal Dreamer|Eternal Dreamer]] ([[User talk:Eternal Dreamer|talk]]) 21:39, 19 October 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::I&#039;m sure at least 2 translators in SAO project are waiting for the raw of Progressive volume 1 to show up so they can start working on it. But there&#039;s no raw available yet after ten days, when Index NT5, which released on the same day as SAOP1 had its raw available 3 days after the release. At this point, I think the chance to see the proper raw of SAOP1 is pretty slim.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::I personally avoided checking illustration page of the volume I haven&#039;t read, as it tends to be spoilery, but you&#039;re free to create and upload the images if the quality is good enough.

== Name Pronunciation ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Can you guys add a page for character name&#039;s pronunciation ? It&#039;s hard to talk to others while each got his/her own way of speaking names :P&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
P.S: by the way, please make a wider range of question for page-editing. There&#039;s always 1 question whenever I look at it. -Anon&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Well there is the: [[Sword Art Online:Names and Terminology Guideline]]. I suppose we could add ogg files for pronunciation like wikipedia does. I&#039;ll work on it. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  13:50, 18 June 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::You can do it the IPA way, like this: London /ˈlʌndən/ -Anon&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::That won&#039;t be completely accurate. English and Japanese have different ways to pronouncing certain sounds like T, D, etc. Furthermore, few people know the phonetic alphabet in it&#039;s entirety and certainly not those with English as second alphabet. Better to sound it out for them. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  08:03, 19 June 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::So anyone who is great at speaking japanese and a good voice, please volunteer to be the pronouncer. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  08:07, 19 June 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Most names should be straightforward in pronunciation, I assume the names with issues are Lyfa and Sinon? In that case:&lt;br /&gt;
* Lyfa - Ree-fa in JP version, but English changed R to L so Lee-fa is acceptable, just not Lai-fa.&lt;br /&gt;
* Sinon - Shi-non, just like her real name Shino.&lt;br /&gt;
* Eugeo - Yoo-gee-o.&lt;br /&gt;
-- [[User:BeginnerXP|BeginnerXP]] - [[User_talk:BeginnerXP|Talk]] 01:38, 20 June 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Alternately, for whatever name you have no idea how to pronounce, go to the terminology page, copy the jp name you see, put it into google, then ask it to sound it out for you(somewhere at the bottom right corner). That&#039;s the least complicated way, since JP pronunciation is quite simple/fixed. --[[User:Pryun|Pryun]] - [[User_talk:Pryun|Talk]] 05:13, 20 June 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

I&#039;m going to point this out here and hopefully the Admin, Supervisor or one of the translators can clear up my confusion. Volume 4&#039;s story ends with &amp;quot;Chapter 7&amp;quot; and Volume 5&#039;s story begins with &amp;quot;Chapter 7&amp;quot;. Is this officially on purpose, as in the way it&#039;s printed?

== Notes on {Alfheim Online} Norse Mythology References ==&lt;br /&gt;
Hey,As most of you have probably figured out, &amp;quot;Alfheim online&amp;quot; is basically one big reference to Norse Mythology. Therefore, I will put in a few definitions/explanations. Note that the Norse viking raiders used a completely different runic system (that&#039;s the proper term for &amp;quot;alphabet&amp;quot;), so spellings are rough. I have also changed the spellings of some words used to be closer to what I think is proper.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. &amp;quot;Alfheim&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Alf&amp;quot; is a shortened version of &amp;quot;Alfar&amp;quot;, which is the Norse version of elves. Norse elves have characteristics that are very similar to fairies from other mythologies/folktales, therefore &amp;quot;alfar&amp;quot; can be interpreted as either elf or fairy. &amp;quot;heim&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;heimr&amp;quot; means world or realm.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. &amp;quot;Yģģdrasil&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
In Norse mythology, the &amp;quot;Yģģdrasil&amp;quot; (meaning &amp;quot;Odin&#039;s Horse&amp;quot;, &#039;Yģģu&#039; being another name for Odin. pronounce &#039;ģ&#039; with a rasping sound) was a friggin&#039; huge tree at the center of the earth, the roots of which held the whole place together. Curled around the roots of the world tree was this friggin&#039; huge dragon called the &amp;quot;niddhoģ&amp;quot;. The Niddhoģ gnawed at the base of the tree and once it succeded, &amp;quot;Ragnarök&amp;quot; would occur (see below).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3. &amp;quot;Ragnarök&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
Basically, end of the world. World is encased in fire and ice, blah blah blah (wouldn&#039;t the fire just melt the ice then get put out by the resulting water, causing nothing to happen?). After the world is encased in fire and ice, Odin blows the crap out of it. Then he makes a new world tree and a new Earth, and the whole lot happens again.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
4. &amp;quot;Aesir&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;Æsir&lt;br /&gt;
Basically, the norse gods. Means &amp;quot;elevated ones&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5. &amp;quot;Odin&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;Óòin&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
King of the Æsir. Presumably, went to some well to drink, then was told that if he drank from the well, he would lose an eye but gain infinite wisdom. And he did. His job description is basically &amp;quot;Implement Ragnarök and beat the crap out of giants. Repeat.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6. &amp;quot;Thor&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;Þòrr&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
Lightning Æsir. Enjoys blowing up giants. Has a big ol&#039; friggin&#039; hammer called Mjölnir.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7. &amp;quot;Thyrm&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;Þyrm&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
King of the giants. Likes killing stuff, especialy the æsir. He fails at it. Dies a lot and comes back later. Mostly the Norse myths have to do with Odin or Thor beating the tar out of him, again and again and again. This is the kind of stuff Vikings like to hear, I guess.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
8. &amp;quot;Freyja&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;Freyyá&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
Goddess of love, sex, and killing/death (So in other words, the Viking&#039;s favorite mythological character). Also Odin&#039;s wife (Man that sucks, Klein! Better luck next time). Creator and leader of the Valykries (Really pretty women that sweep up dead vikings and take them to Valhalla, a place with infinite food and access to Jötunheimr, so they can pretty much eat, kill, and hang out with pretty women for eternity. Vikings like these people a lot too.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
9. &amp;quot;Jötunheimr&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
Land of the giants, literally. Þyrm and his minions are found here. The æsir and all dead vikings go here to kill giants forever. One of the Vikings&#039; favorite places.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think that sums it up. If there&#039;s anything I forgot that was mentioned somewhere in Alfheim Online, please look it up and edit it in or leave an edit asking for definitions.&lt;br /&gt;
Also sorry for messed up editing causing this post to appear twice. Gomen!&lt;br /&gt;

Land of the giants, literally. Þyrm and his minions are found here. The æsir and all dead vikings go here to kill giants forever. One of the Vikings&#039; favorite places.&lt;br /&gt;

:Two minor notes:  1.  The Norse Mythology References section seems to be doubled above/below itself.  2.  Most sections look accurate, but regarding &#039;After the world is encased in fire and ice, Odin blows the crap out of it. Then he makes a new world tree and a new Earth, and the whole lot happens again.&#039; (from section 3, about Ragnarök):  isn&#039;t Odin killed by Fenrir in Ragnarök?  (Before being avenged by his son.)  And wasn&#039;t the Earth made by the frost giants Bergelmir and his wife, out of Ymir&#039;s body?  I unfortunately don&#039;t see where the ideas of cycling Ragnaröks or Odin as an eternal god of creation come from.  -[[User:Multipartite|Multipartite]] ([[User talk:Multipartite|talk]]) 17:27, 14 April 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

== About the alicization character names........ ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I prefer the earlier ones(Ronie, Tizei, Solterina, etc.) than the new ones(Ronye, Tiezé, Soltiliena,etc.) since the former looks more natural, especially of Ronie&#039;s.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:Well, the current spellings are apparently more accurate in terms of pronunciation. I&#039;ll be honest, when I first read &amp;quot;Ronie&amp;quot;, in my head I heard &amp;quot;Ronny&amp;quot;. As for the &amp;quot;look&amp;quot; of the names, that&#039;s only a side-affect of having read one first, and then looking at the other. That&#039;s pretty subjective.

== Regarding the Web Version section ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I have a question... Isn&#039;t most of what&#039;s within the &amp;quot;Side Stories&amp;quot; section part of the Web version?&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Specificly, [[Sword Art Online:Aria in the Starless Night|Aria in the Starless Night]], [[Sword Art Online:Rondo of the Transient Sword|Rondo of the Transient Sword]], [[Sword Art Online:Sound of Water, Sound of Hammer|Sound of Water, Sound of Hammer]], [[Sword Art Online:Caliber SS|Caliber SS]], [[Sword Art Online:A Spot of Sunshine in the Winter|A Spot of Sunshine in the Winter]], [[Sword Art Online:Cradle of the Moon Chapter 1|Cradle of the Moon]], [[Sword Art Online:There is but one ultimate way|There is but one ultimate way]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So shouldn&#039;t these be included as being part of the &amp;quot;Web Version&amp;quot; section?&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;also, I&#039;m wondering if anyone is actually going to go about translating the web version xD There are a number of exerpts here and there, but not really much... If the problem is getting that actual text, I remember downloading some files of the Alicization arc, even though i understand 0% japanese xD...

:If you wish to know the translations, just look here on the talk page...

== Bullet Lines ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m an editor for the English SAO wiki and recently published 2 new articles for both Bullet Circles and Bullet Lines. However, I had a couple of questions to ask. 1.The terms &amp;quot;Bullet Circle&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;bullet Line&amp;quot; were separate in volume 5, but are more or less merged in volume 6. Is this the case in the original or was this caused by different translators working on the 2 volumes? 2. We&#039;ve had a little dispute over how the sniper advantage actually works. Some of us interpret it as &amp;quot;The Bullet Line does not appear at all for the sniper&#039;s first shot&amp;quot;, while others interpret it as &amp;quot;Players can&#039;t see a sniper&#039;s first Bullet Line because they need to know where to look for it first&amp;quot;. Could you please confirm which of these is true? Thank you --[[User:Gsimenas|Gsimenas]] ([[User talk:Gsimenas|talk]]) 05:42, 19 May 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:I&#039;m not the original translators, but for the first point, I took a look at the source and, yes, there were a few parts where &amp;quot;Bullet Lines&amp;quot; were supposed to have been &amp;quot;Bullet Circles&amp;quot;. I think I&#039;ve corrected all instances, but if you spot more, by all means please post again.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:For the second point, I don&#039;t think even they would be able to sort that out for you - it doesn&#039;t seem like the kind of thing you can clarify by retranslating, if you get what I mean. Personally, I think it&#039;s &amp;quot;The system doesn&#039;t show the target the sniper&#039;s first Bullet Line &#039;&#039;at all&#039;&#039;&amp;quot; rather than &amp;quot;Players can&#039;t see a sniper&#039;s first Bullet Line because they need to know where to look for it first&amp;quot;, and I waved Death Gun&#039;s dodge off as either already knowing where she was because he saw her while using his invisibility cloak, or that &amp;quot;Hypersense&amp;quot; skill (Kirito dodged Death Gun&#039;s own first shot, remember?). Though, this doesn&#039;t really explain Sinon&#039;s own comment about checking through the system, unless it was just a &amp;quot;mind scrambling for answers&amp;quot; thing... -[[User:AKAAkira|Akira]] ([[User talk:AKAAkira|talk]]) 22:44, 23 May 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

::Thank you for clearing that inconsistency out :) . And guess we&#039;ll just have to stick with an assumption on how that system works. Unless the anime gets another sequel and we can get visual proof on whether they can see the Bullet Line or not :D (though even in this case it&#039;s not a 100% guarantee that they will depict the concept in an unambiguous way)--[[User:Gsimenas|Gsimenas]] ([[User talk:Gsimenas|talk]]) 14:57, 29 May 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
As far as I understand, the chapter begins on the 6th of March/3rd Month, however, the graduation contest that is supposed to take place just 2 days later at the end of the chapter it is said to take place &amp;quot;At the end of March—&amp;quot;. Also &amp;quot;Eugeo and I would be taking part in the advancement exams for elite swordsmen next month.&amp;quot;; &amp;quot;That&#039;s because we were the top 12 students during the promotion exam at the end of the month, and our future roles as elite swordsmen trainees were confirmed.&amp;quot; - are these exams supposed to be separate, because I can&#039;t understand how they can say that their positions as elite swordsmen are already guaranteed when the exam is only going to take place later that month? --[[User:Gsimenas|Gsimenas]] ([[User talk:Gsimenas|talk]]) 14:50, 29 May 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

== Something strange on the Android App ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Not 100% sure this is the right place for this, but...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There is something strange going on with this LN series in the Android app. The &#039;Cradle of the Moon&#039; Side Story chapter(s) is listed a total of 6 times under three separate headings of &#039;Side Stories&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Similarly, I have two header listings for &#039;Sword Art Online: Material Editions&#039;, 3 for &#039;Volume 1&#039; (two of which seem to be Progressive, the other just has a chapter called &#039;Enlarge&#039; which doesn&#039;t seem to contain any data) and a total of 5 &#039;Side Stories&#039; headers. The 12 main headers (LNs 1-12) seem to be fine, as do all of the other LNs I have marked as Favourites in the app.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Anyone got any ideas/fixes?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It&#039;s what happens when people play around with how the sections are listed. The old listing persist because the App downloads and stores the information in a cache, but the &#039;new&#039; listing also pop up showing as duplicates. The easiest fix is to purge the volume cache (touch and hold) then refresh the volume. You could even do this to the entire LN listing from your watch list and run an update check to pick up how things are listed now. Oh...also don&#039;t forget to sign your posts. Helps track who is having these problems in case someone on the dev team wants to talk about it. [[User:Unknownadd|Unknownadd]] ([[User talk:Unknownadd|talk]]) 21:35, 15 June 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

:Sorry about not signing, but since I&#039;m not registered here yet I wasn&#039;t sure it would help anyway. ;)&lt;br /&gt;
:Is there somewhere that I can make suggestions for the app? I&#039;ve just used the Options version of &#039;clear novel cache&#039;, since doing it on a volume-by-volume basis didn&#039;t seem to work, and it wiped out EVERYTHING - My favourites, &#039;read&#039; chapters, everything, so now I have to try and remember what I have read and what I haven&#039;t, what I was planning to read, etc... seems a little excessive. ~AerosAtar&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Volume 12+ Translation? ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I don&#039;t want to sound impatient, but has volume 12 been put on hiatus? I remember volume 10 and 11 being translated at a fast and steady pace, but 12 hasn&#039;t even had a word translated for 2 months.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Tap is translating vol 12, You can check it out on his blog.&lt;br /&gt;
Blog&#039;s link is on his profile. He will upload it to baka-tsuki once translation and major editing is completed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

Well, the project is likely to be discontinued soon. However, Volume 13 is being translated by tap (and he&#039;s about half way though, too.) You can read them on his blog, if you wish. They&#039;re not here on Baka-Tsuki, because he usually takes some time to edit and fix up errors, before posting them here.

Do you know if Yen Press has a good reputation of accurate translations, works fast and won&#039;t be likely to drop the project? If B-T&#039;s going to drop it, might as well know how fast they release each volume. --[[User:Casare|Casare]] ([[User talk:Casare|talk]]) 16:32, 16 October 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

AFAIK reputation is normal (Spice and Wolf), so 3-4 volumes per year are expected. More information can be found on forum [[User:Xaliuss|Xaliuss]] ([[User talk:Xaliuss|talk]]) 03:23, 17 October 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

== Raious Antinous ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I doubt anyone will argue with the conjecture that the eldest son of a 3rd class noble family, Raious Antinous, is a huge dick.&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;d like to point out the significance of his second name, Antinous.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For those of you who&#039;ve read the Oddysey, by Homer (being the sequel to the Iliad), you will understand immediately what I&#039;m talking about.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the Odyssey, Antinous is a character who is attempting to secure Odysseus&#039; bride, Penelope, for himself. Odysseus is assumed to be dead at this time. Antinous is the son of a high-ranking noble who is attempting to marry Penelope, and it is insinuated that, given the chance, he would attempt to rape her. He gets duly killed by Odysseus, who is understandably angry. Actually Odysseus kills him along with several HUNDRED other suitors (BADASS ALERT). ANNNNYways...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Anyone else notice the similarity? Cause i do.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Number of volumes ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;ve noticed over the past week that updaters can&#039;t agree on how many volumes:  Some people update it to 13 and then someone comes in behind them and reverses the update... I&#039;ve seen this happen at least three times this month so far.  I don&#039;t want to start an update war or anything, but I think there ARE 13 volumes now in the main series (not even counting the SAO Progressive): there are certainly 13 volumes listed in section 5... or are we not counting volume 13 since it&#039;s release date is next month?  [[User:Zehd|Zehd]] ([[User talk:Zehd|talk]]) 23:48, 11 July 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think number of currently published volumes must be present, and it will be updated after release date. Looking at this number any user can estimate length of the series and translation progress, other numbers can be misleading.

Bloody Yen Press. Now I&#039;ll never read the ending. If they finish translation at all, it will take about 3-4 or so years before they catch up with B-T...

I&#039;ve noticed more of the the first couple of volumes have disappeared in advance of the licensed volume release, and its reached the point of the first 6 volumes having been taken down. Is there some kind of pattern to this, like a schedule for which volumes are removed when?

I&#039;ll use Sharramon&#039;s translations for these... Well, for the most part. Lines may be wrong as well. They&#039;re just quotes from the story and descriptions anyway.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Could you translate those sometime too please? --[[User:Darklor|Darklor]] 23:16, 7. Feb. 2010 (UTC)=&lt;br /&gt;
:We should probably put the illustration translations in the discussion pages of the novel images, and perhaps just put a link here to them as a reminder.&lt;br /&gt;
::That was the idea. Or to be precise I would add the translations to the image pages in the image discription. And for those, where it work in the illustration pages, too. I did add they here only to show which images I meant --[[User:Darklor|Darklor]] 07:24, 8 February 2010 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For Vol2 Img7, do I see....a love interest? XDDD On a more on-topic note, I think I put the translation for that page in the right section (the discussion tab right?), care to check?&lt;br /&gt;

Quick comment on your translation for ALO. While I haven&#039;t seen any official English translation for its name, the Japanese Wikipedia calls it Alfheim Online. Personally, I agree with it since it follows the Mythology theme, with Álfar meaning elves in Norse Mythology, making Alfheim mean Elves&#039; (Alf) Home (Heim). The reason I think it follows the Mythology theme is that I believe Yggdrasil makes an appearance (I couldn&#039;t find where I read this, and I have bad memory at best, so possibly wrong), Kirito&#039;s class becomes a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spriggan Spriggan], Lyfa (or whatever it ends up being) is a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sylph Sylph], and Yui is a Navigation Pixie&amp;lt;!--Quite the specific race if you ask me--&amp;gt;. Hope this helps. ~EnigmaticRepose&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:In the Japanese raws of volume 3 (page 61), the name is written in English: &amp;quot;ALfheim Online&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;

An improved version of the 《Sword Skills》 system of the now defunct Sword Art Online, implemented in 《Alfheim Online》. Each weapon has its own 《Skill Tree》. Brought forth drastic change to 《ALO》 which was previously dominated by long-range 《Magic》.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;Different from the 《Sword Skills》 in 《SAO》, OSS are not skills predefined by the system but rather skills that can be invented and registered by the player. However, in order to register such skills, players are required to perform them &amp;quot;without system support at a speed normally impossible without system assist&amp;quot;. This somewhat contradictory strict requirement is the main reason why there&#039;s only few players who posses OSS.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;The OSS system supports a function known as 《Sword Skill Inheritance》. Players who successfully register an OSS are able to pass down a single-use 《Skill Manual》 to other players. Because the development of an OSS is extremely difficult, 《Skill Manuals》 for OSS, especially those that contain over-5-hits special moves, are currently the most expensive items in ALO.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

:Regarding the &amp;quot;color tweak&amp;quot;, I don&#039;t think it was necessary, the colors look out of place. IMHO, translations should stick to giving the same experience as the native speaker would have, which includes not changing the illustrations beyond replacing the text.

Is it Tactics Guide or Tactical Guide? I need someone I am familiar with to recheck the second pic and onwards&#039; translations especially the names (preferably BeginnerXP or Pryun or Teh Ping, well if you don&#039;t have it checked by the time I&#039;m awake I&#039;m gonna put it in mistakes or not, I&#039;ll have the PSD file so correcting will be a cinch). I&#039;m almost done cleaning all the pictures though, but I gotta sleep now. Will do the small remaining portion after I awake around about 6-8 hrs in the future. Also is &#039;&#039;&#039;a senior and Xth seat&#039;&#039;&#039; meaning a &#039;&#039;&#039;senior (aka senpai) as well as a Xth seat&#039;&#039;&#039; or a &#039;&#039;&#039;senior Xth seat&#039;&#039;&#039;?

Hmm. I carefully romanized the names 1 katakana at a time. Is it Uoro or Ouro? Cause the katagana are arranged as Uoro, yet Median translated it as Ouro. Unless there is some special reason?

Second, from what I&#039;ve read on here I thought you understood Japanese at least somewhat as you said you watched stuff raw, so I&#039;m surprised you wouldn&#039;t get a set phrase like まだまだ.

:::Dude, I said I understand &#039;&#039;&#039;verbal&#039;&#039;&#039; japanese, not written. For written I need to run the text through a romanjifier like google translate&#039;s phonetic reader. But I can&#039;t do that with pictures now, can I? Anyways thanks for the j-text. I just put it through and found that it was &amp;quot;mada mada&amp;quot;. But it can actually be translated both ways, as in &amp;quot;I&#039;ve still got a long way to go&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;I&#039;m just getting started/This isn&#039;t all I have/Not yet/etc&amp;quot; But the word that translates to &amp;quot;No&amp;quot; before the term points to &amp;quot;I&#039;ve still got a long way to go&amp;quot;. I know that but it seems the translator didn&#039;t and since I couldn&#039;t extract the j-text and run it through a romanjification program, thus I missed the error. But now I got it, so...

::I meant that I would have expected someone familiar with Japanese to recognize the phrase from one of its common translations and, based off the context, realize there might be a more appropriate choice in a similar way to how Pryun was thinking.  This would be independent of knowing what the original text was.  Being able to recognize this sort of thing can really improve your effectiveness as an editor as you would be better able to let the translators know of a possible mistake.

:::How could I when I need to romanjify in order to understand? I guess you overestimated my abilities. The phrase fit the circumstances, even if it was wrong. And whenever I sense a mistake I immediately ask for the j-text, run it through google translate, check both the romanji and the translation (Just checking the translation isn&#039;t good enough but the romanji helps a lot), examine the sentence in both languages and then give suggestions. I&#039;ve helped translators a lot via this method. I do intend to learn written Japanese as well. But pretty soon I&#039;ll probably be starting my Masters. So it&#039;ll have to be delayed.

::::Then I recommend you to spend a bit of time to learn Hiragana &amp;amp; Katakana, since you like anime &amp;amp; manga, knowing how to read both kana helps greatly.

&lt;br /&gt;
:If you read manga, especially those shounen manga, all kanji will have hirakana characters (furigana) telling readers how it&#039;s read, it helps a lot to use that reading to look up the kanji, rather than tracking the kanji via radicals or stroke counts. Learning kanji properly would require a large amount of time (years), so it&#039;s entirely down to each person&#039;s determination. But kana is simple enough like A-B-C, so it should be a good foundation to have for anyone who enjoys Japanese media. -- [[User:BeginnerXP|BeginnerXP]] - [[User_talk:BeginnerXP|Talk]] 10:44, 7 August 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

:::Well, the only one left the translate, is the one with Kirito, Eugeo, Ronie (Tea haired) and Teiza (Red Haired). Judging by everything, it should be the scene in Interlude II, where Kirito hands the bag of pies to Ronie, and tells her to share it with her class mates. If you can&#039;t translate the whole thing, try translating bits and pieces to get an idea of where in the text this is. I might do it though, if you don&#039;t want to xD But either way, it&#039;s ineffective, as it could just be wrong all together.. haha...&lt;br /&gt;

Still, It would be nice to just have linked to the pdf for those that wanted it, since it was already done and all, instead of taking it up upon yourself to, uh, horriblify the text.

Quoting: &#039;&#039;If you mean the text in volume 7, the image quality is too poor for me to want to spend my time on. But for volume 8, I already did all of them, just I didn&#039;t add them to wiki, you can get the text from my SAO8 PDF I post in forums and edit the images accordingly, you also might need to correct some mistakes as I didn&#039;t want to bother Pryun to look at them with his busy schedule. -- BeginnerXP - Talk 05:22, 7 June 2012 (CDT)&#039;&#039; ([[User_talk:Zero2001/Archive_1#SAO_Pics|Thank God I archive my talk page discussions]]). So I do kinda have an okay to at least cross-check and edit. Besides, considering the amount of work done during scanlation, other than text translation (ie: cleaning, leveling, cloning, etc) I don&#039;t think it&#039;s unfair especially since I&#039;m not taking the credit for the translation, only the editing and photoshopping. Anyways, Teh Ping said this in the history comments: &#039;&#039;Note, this is done by a person called Melannis. I&#039;m really grateful for the help here.

::::@Zero2001: At first, I wanted to just ignore this double offensive actions from you (one is taking my translation and change the terms without permission, second is asking in Ping&#039;s talk page if there is any error in my translation, as if you picked up something from the street and asked if it&#039;s genuine). But I guess I should make it clear as you quote what I said regarding to my image translations in volume 8. I don&#039;t mind at all if you use my translation and I also don&#039;t mind for grammar corrections that might be needed, but I will never allow anyone to mess with the terms/names I use. Since it&#039;s already this late, I won&#039;t ask you to take the image down or anything, just please be careful next time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::@Drowzycow: Teiza is sure completely wrong, while Tize works, but I think many would read it as &amp;quot;Taiz&amp;quot;, that&#039;s why I use Tizay, less confusion this way. Please look [http://dreadfuldecoding.blogspot.com/p/pronunciation-guide.html here] for audio samples on how to pronounce both girl names in Interlude II.

::::Ah sorry. I just matched the terms to the text translation. About taking your translation, it seems I mistakenly thought your permission on pic translations would automatically extend to the latest volume. That&#039;s my mistake. I sincerely apologise for that. As for my request for correction. Plenty of times in the past it&#039;s happened that after I photoshopped the pics, then and &#039;&#039;only then&#039;&#039; people started pointing out the mistakes. So that&#039;s why I asked. You should know me well enough BeginnerXP, I hold no ill will in such matters. My apologies. I&#039;ll be more careful next time. It seems as you&#039;re still conflicted on the issue, so when you guys decide on the spelling of the names then please tell me. I&#039;ll change them on the double.

::::I followed the link and heard the pronounciation. Here&#039;s my two chips: Indeed it sounds like Tiz&#039;&#039;&#039;ay&#039;&#039;&#039; or Tiz&#039;&#039;&#039;ei&#039;&#039;&#039;. Google translate types ティゼー phonetically as Tizē therefore Tizei would be closer in my opinion. Also, Tizay is short form of &amp;quot;It is ay&amp;quot; (ie: Acting as a confirmation to someone Else&#039;s question.) [http://lastnames.myheritage.com/last-name/Tizei Tizei], on the other hand is a name. But I&#039;ll leave the choice to you guys.

==== Volume 11 ====&lt;br /&gt;

It tastes better than the stuff at the Prancing Deer Inn, Ronye, Tiese.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;A young boy lost within the mysterious «Undersworld». In order to escape from here, he is searching for a «System Console».&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Ronye: Wah, really?!&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;A «Valet Trainee» that aims to become an «Integrity Knight» and serves as Kirito&#039;s assistant.&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Tiese: Erm, we were the ones who made it, so whether it fits your tastes or not...&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;A «Valet Trainee» that aims to become an «Integrity Knight» and serves as Eugeo&#039;s assistant.&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Eugeo: Kirito, if you already helped out that much, stop trying to ditch us!&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;The first inhabitant Kirito met in this world. Became «Elite Swordsman Trainee» at «North Centoria Master Swords Academy» with Kirito.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
Image:Sword Art Online Vol 11 - 004-005.jpg|Ronye: No... Help... Help, Eugeo-senpai! Eugeo-senpai - !&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Tiese: N-no...no...NO...!&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Eugeo: Uh...gu...ooh...! I, I...!&lt;br /&gt;
Image:Sword Art Online Vol 11 - 006-007.jpg|Eugeo: ...Alice...? Is that you...? Are you...Alice...?&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Alice: I am the Overseer of Centoria, an Integrity Knight of the Axiom Church - Alice Synthesis Thirty.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;An «Integrity Knight» who protects order in the «Human World».&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
Image:Sword Art Online Vol 11 - 008.jpg|&#039;&#039;&#039;«North Centoria Master Sword Academy and Integrity Knights»&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Located in the center of the Underworld’s «Human World» is the largest city of the Human World, the «Capital Centoria». It is enclosed within a perfect circular rampart with a diameter of ten kilol, and possesses a population of over twenty thousand. The solid walls in the shape of an X divide the circular city into four equal parts, and these separating walls are called the «Eternal Wall». «North Centoria», «East Centoria», «South Centoria», and «West Centoria» are what the divided municipalities are called; they are the capitals of the four empires which divide and rule over the vast Human World.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;In the middle of the «Capital» is the pure white grand tower that lies at the heart of the Human World, the Axiom Church’s «Central Cathedral». The tower is so tall its zenith is hazy and can&#039;t be seen, and the square grounds of the church are enclosed by a high wall, so it is impossible to see what lies inside. The «Eternal Wall» that divides the city of Centoria starts from the Cathedral, and stretches outward in four directions. Within the highest ruling system «Axion Church» there are officers known as «Integrity Knights», and these knights that maintain the order of the world are the Sacred Task that all the swordsmen of the world aspire to.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;If one passes the entrance exam of the swordsmen training institution «North Centoria Master Sword Academy» in order to aim for the rank of «Integrity Knight», they become a «Beginner Trainee Swordsman» in public. The Trainees train themselves diligently over the period of one year, and at the end of every academy year, they aim for becoming swordsmen of even higher rank during the promotion exam. The final objective of the academy students is to participate in the «Northern Empire Swordsmanship Tournament». Kirito and Eugeo are aiming to win the competition even higher than that, the «Four Empires Unity Tournament» that is the highest swordsmanship tournament in the Human World, where the winners are appointed as honorable «Integrity Knights».&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Notes:&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;lt;s&amp;gt;Not 100% sure on Kirito&#039;s comment, that&#039;s the best I could guess&lt;br /&gt;
*Reason for changing Ronie&#039;s first comment&#039;s comma to exclamation point was since &amp;quot;Wow, really?&amp;quot; seems to be used with too much sarcasm too often these days&lt;br /&gt;
*I&#039;m pretty sure there&#039;s a more eloquent way for Teiza to hint the gesture, but it&#039;s evading me at the moment&lt;br /&gt;
*Since 打ち can mean both &amp;quot;hit&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;reach&amp;quot;, a possible but slightly less likely different interpretation is: &amp;quot;Kirito, if it turns out that my fist can reach you, you don&#039;t have to run away, okay?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
**I peeked at what PROzess translated so far and...well, one word: context. Rather facepalm-worthy. As such, changed Eugeo&#039;s quote. But, Teiza&#039;s quote is somewhat confusing. Unless it&#039;s a case of &#039;&#039;extremely&#039;&#039; liberal context usage, I don&#039;t think she even uses that particular quote in-story. Can someone correct me?&amp;lt;/s&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
***Ronye says that bit, which explains why I didn&#039;t find &#039;&#039;Tiese&#039;&#039; it. And yup, another botched trans.&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;lt;s&amp;gt;Intros of the first pic are the same as the previous volume, except for the second half of Eugeo&#039;s&amp;lt;/s&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
*Also, not quite sure if it&#039;s &amp;quot;Elite Swordsman Trainee&amp;quot; or just &amp;quot;Elite Swordsman&amp;quot; - but then again, previous volumes had them interchanged, so maybe it doesn&#039;t matter?&lt;br /&gt;
*If anyone wants to dispute my interpretations, here&#039;s a quick dump of all kanji used in the first three pics: 君跳鹿亭優劣味私作口合打解今逃修剣学院上級士助僕君人界秩序守市域統括公理教会&lt;br /&gt;

As soon as these are fully translated I will photoshop them. The first pic is still incompletely translated at this point (only one of the character descriptions has been translated the others haven&#039;t, even I can tell).

:As this wiki lacks a flashy quote template, I&#039;ll just make do with pointing out my fifth bullet point in the notes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:On the other hand, I still suggest waiting until at least one other pair of eyes goes over them before actually using the translations. This was my first time, I&#039;m almost afraid to think how much I could&#039;ve messed it up. -[[User:AKAAkira|Akira]] ([[User talk:AKAAkira|talk]]) 16:50, 16 December 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I know the character descriptions for Kirito, Ronie and Teiza are already technically done in Vol 10, but I thought I&#039;d put up my own translation of them in case anyone wants to use it. (Feel free to comment or suggest changes.) Also, I intend to translate the story description on the fourth page, if nobody minds. --[[User:Eternal Dreamer|Eternal Dreamer]] ([[User talk:Eternal Dreamer|talk]]) 14:39, 22 December 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;quot; It tastes better than those prancing deers at the pavilion, &amp;quot; shouldn&#039;t it be &amp;quot;it tastes better than those at the Prancing Deer&#039;s Pavilion,&amp;quot;?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Yes, it should be. I didn&#039;t realize it was a name initially, which was why I was so confused. In volume 10 it was translated as &amp;quot;Jumping Deer Inn&amp;quot;, so I&#039;ll go with that for now. -[[User:AKAAkira|Akira]] ([[User talk:AKAAkira|talk]]) 17:14, 24 December 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Already, the story description is done on the fourth page. As for the location text on the map itself, it&#039;s the exact same as the one from Vol 10, so just copy it from there. --[[User:Eternal Dreamer|Eternal Dreamer]] ([[User talk:Eternal Dreamer|talk]]) 10:03, 24 December 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
:I don&#039;t know a thing about Japanese, but looking at the Raw images for the last image in both this vol and from vol 10, there&#039;s only one difference in regards to the location texts.. There&#039;s a spelling differentiation in the line where &amp;quot;Indomitable Wall&amp;quot; is.. It&#039;s the second character only though, so I&#039;m not really sure what that translates to... [[User:Rage|Rage]] ([[User talk:Rage|talk]]) 10:27, 7 January 2013 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
:My stubbornness made me look up the character XD... For some reason, Reki renamed the wall from 不屈の壁 (Indomitable Wall) to 不朽の壁 (Timeless Wall (according to Google Translate))... Could it be a typo on the behalf of one of the editors of the LN? or was it a hint regarding the story? [[User:Rage|Rage]] ([[User talk:Rage|talk]]) 12:30, 7 January 2013 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

You can translate Ronie&#039;s comment to &amp;quot;Wah, really?&amp;quot;. It&#039;d sound more sincere that way -[[User:M.A.D|M.A.D]] - [[User_talk:M.A.D|Talk]] 22:55, 5 January 2013 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

==== Volume 12 ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Image:Sword Art Online Vol 12 - 002-003.jpg|Kirito: Eugeo, I&#039;ll stop the first attack somehow, so it&#039;s your job to get a strike in.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;A young boy lost within the mysterious «Virtual World», Underworld. In order to escape, he is searching for a «System Console».&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Eugeo: —Got it.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;The first inhabitant Kirito met in this world. Became «Elite Swordsman Trainee» at «North Centoria Master Swords Academy» with Kirito.&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Deusolbert Synthesis Seven: To bathe in the fires of this «Flame Bow» should have meant to become purified for two years. I see, it appears you truly possess the skills Knight Eldrie Thirty-one argued you had, despite being criminals.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;An Integrity Knight who uses the «Flame Bow».&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
Image:Sword Art Online Vol 12 - 004-005.jpg|Fanatio Synthesis Two: This is farewell, you young, foolish criminal. The light hidden inside this Heaven-Piercing Sword, I free from its shackles right now! —Release Recollection!&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;The Integrity Knights&#039; Deputy Head Knight who mastered the «Heaven-Piercing Sword».&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Kirito: Uooooh!&lt;br /&gt;
Image:Sword Art Online Vol 12 - 006-007.jpg|Kirito: I&#039;m Swordsman Trainee Kirito, and I want a fair swords match with Miss Changed Knight Alice!&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Alice Synthesis Thirty: —It&#039;s all right, your wicked hearts are such low things that I suppose you may try with that sword of yours.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;An Integrity Knight who wields the «Osmanthus Sword».&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
Image:Sword Art Online Vol 12 - 008.jpg|&#039;&#039;&#039;Central Cathedral&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Located at the middle of Underworld&#039;s «Human World» is its greatest city, «Capital Centoria». At the core of «Capital», the heart of the Human World itself, there exists the pure white superstructure, «Central Cathedral». The tower&#039;s zenith is at a height that peters out into obscurity, and the church&#039;s square grounds are surrounded by high walls; peeking inside is utterly impossible. The supreme body «Axiom Church», governing the Human World from «Central Cathedral», maintain peacekeepers named «Integrity Knights», and these knights that protect the order of the world are what every Trainee Swordsmen in the world yearn to become.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;The Cathedral is built with a hundred floors in all, and the top floor contains a room for the High Priestess.　The middle floors host monks, priests, and so on, and those who conduct the business necessary for the Axiom Church to rule the Human World also live there. On the third floor is an armory, but the fiftieth floor has a utility called «The Great Hall of the Spirit World&#039;s Light»&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Notes:&lt;br /&gt;
*Kirito &amp;amp; Eugeo&#039;s descs borrowed and modified from Eternal Dreamer&#039;s descs from last volume.&lt;br /&gt;
*Not entirely sure Deusolbert&#039;s referring to himself or his bow.&lt;br /&gt;
*熾 turned up &amp;quot;Seraphim&amp;quot; in Google Translate. No idea what&#039;s up with that.&lt;br /&gt;
**熾焰 in Chink can mean something along the lines of &amp;quot;Blazing&amp;quot;. Also, Sky Piercing Sword sounds better than Heaven Piercing Sword to me.&lt;br /&gt;
***Eeh, &amp;quot;Heaven&amp;quot; sounds more flashy to me, when it&#039;s &amp;quot;Heaven Piercing&amp;quot; vs &amp;quot;Sky Piercing&amp;quot;...unless it&#039;s maybe something like &amp;quot;Skysplitter&amp;quot;. -[[User:AKAAkira|Akira]] ([[User talk:AKAAkira|talk]]) 19:45, 3 May 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
*実 has way too many different positive trait translations. &amp;quot;Sincerity&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;truth&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;fidelity&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;faith&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;confidence&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;devotion&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;trust&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;reliance&amp;quot;... I think &amp;quot;purity&amp;quot; works best here, though.&lt;br /&gt;
**From context, it seems like it&#039;s been two years since he last used the bow&#039;s true ability. The bow becomes engulfed in flames when it&#039;s Enhance Armament is activated.&lt;br /&gt;
*I &#039;&#039;think&#039;&#039; いか in this case is supposed to be the 以下 kind. I think.&lt;br /&gt;
*剣筋 stumped me. Pretty sure it&#039;s supposed to be a compound word, but no idea what it entails. I just left it at &amp;quot;sword&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;quot;Superstructure&amp;quot; there isn&#039;t intrinsically correct, but it definitely sounds good - better than &amp;quot;great tower&amp;quot; (which I&#039;m pretty sure is the original meaning) and more accurate than &amp;quot;skyscraper&amp;quot; (especially with the modern image that word draws upon).&lt;br /&gt;
*I&#039;m pretty sure 霞んで見えない basically says &amp;quot;so hazy it can&#039;t be seen&amp;quot;, but that was kinda hard to conform into a &amp;quot;the tower&#039;s zenith is at a height&amp;quot; sentence structure, and I thought &amp;quot;obscurity&amp;quot; covers both the &amp;quot;indistinct&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;lack of ability to see&amp;quot; bases well enough anyway.&lt;br /&gt;
*I think this のぞき　is the 覗き kind?&lt;br /&gt;
*Strictly speaking, 憧れの天職 translates more as &amp;quot;yearn to take as their calling&amp;quot;, but...&amp;quot;yearn to become&amp;quot; is virtually the same meaning.&lt;br /&gt;
*Not entirely sure about 先活. 先 is along the lines of &amp;quot;former&amp;quot; and 活 is basically &amp;quot;lives&amp;quot;...but apparently 活　is a synonym for 生, and 先生 is &#039;&#039;sensei&#039;&#039;. For now, went with the former, since that makes more sense in context.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
OK some of you might notice that this thing has an editor all of a sudden. I&#039;ve done this &#039;without&#039; a supervisor..... I hope that&#039;s OK.... O.o&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Feel free to keep editing if you see something wrong though, we&#039;re only two pairs of eyes and it&#039;s highly probable that we&#039;d miss something. Also we aren&#039;t perfect.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::This is also not going to affect the speed in any way (well except for only today I think... since y&#039;know it&#039;s going to be first &#039;gap&#039; but it&#039;ll be back to normal. Actually you guys won&#039;t even notice).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::You&#039;re never be going to be waiting for too long.... well unless I&#039;m translating slowly. If the editor hasn&#039;t put the next chap up in two days I&#039;ll put mine up first. The editor can chance it with his (or her???? Now I think about it I don&#039;t know O.O) version. But I don&#039;t think that that&#039;s going to happen.&lt;br /&gt;

Far from perfect. We&#039;re both ESL (English as Second Language) people after all. The good news is that I can do Chinese-English proofreading/editing, the bad news is that tenses are a weakness for me. I&#039;m trying to keep an eye out on other people&#039;s edits and track what kind of things I miss, but if you notice a particular pattern that I fault in please don&#039;t hesitate to fix and/or drop me a note. Also, having more editors is usually a good thing. -- Aorii&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:I should have asked before putting up my rather literal translation up, but is that okay? It has already be reverted though. &lt;br /&gt;
As when I went through the japanese text, some stuff was missing. &lt;br /&gt;
By the way, the tense used is past tense, right? Tenses should be same throughout the novel. -KuroiHikari&lt;br /&gt;

Hello, i was just wondering if you guys would accept another editor here. I have read almost all 9 volumes, and there are always many, MANY grammatical errors and weird literal translations in the text. The translation itself is solid, but it is just really awkward to read. I do really appreciate the work you guys put into this, and I&#039;m not trying to demean or anything, but i think i could contribute greatly to the editing of this novel. I am very proficient in english, and I could probably edit a chapter in 2-3 days, or faster depending on the length of the chapter. If you&#039;ll accept me, you could send me an unedited text from something to test my skills if required. I would be happy to lend a hand to such a great project.

So, I started reading the novels after having watched the anime. I really like it and I appreciate the work, but I think there&#039;s a lot that I could offer as an editor. Besides odd sentence structure, I&#039;ve seen a few misspellings. I know it says on the main page to contact a supervisor if you want to join the project, but I&#039;m not sure how to go about doing that. If someone could help me out, I would appreciate it. --[[User:nVitius|nVitius]] 3:00, 5 January 2013 PST&lt;br /&gt;

==This is REALLY GOOD!!!!==&lt;br /&gt;
I really like this. When I first started reading it sounded like just another virtual reality/MMORPG anime... thing, but now, it looks really cool!&lt;br /&gt;
Please Give us chapter four soon!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:I agree with this fellows statement as well. It sounded dumb at first, but the character&#039;s feel far more realistic than I would have thought. I hope this gets alot of attention. Good luck Sharramon!&lt;br /&gt;

:::Thank you all ^^ I&#039;ve done chap four now! But it&#039;s more of a run through of how the situation was like in Aincrad. The story starts properly from chapter five. I&#039;ll try to translate that as quick as possible too!&lt;br /&gt;
::::I love you&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::::Thanks for the update&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is good! I like the development in chapter 5. Will wait until next update! I look forward to the next chapter, from what I see in the illustration there will be some romance...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Dammit now I want chapter 6... Please give it to us soon!!! PLEASE!!!! And thank you once again for translating this!&lt;br /&gt;

::This overwhelming pressure! XD I&#039;m workin&#039; on it! I&#039;ll try and get it up soon but the soonest SHOULD be Thursday but we&#039;ll see!&lt;br /&gt;

:::Thank you very much for your effort! ^^ Awaiting next update eagerly... You update surprisingly fast^^. Please do not take this as a pressure but as encouragement^^&lt;br /&gt;

This is turning into a pretty good response column, and for a nifty reason; SAO is pretty kick ass. All our thanks go out to you, Sharramon, keep up the good work! ps BTW you have the fastest chapter updates I&#039;ve seen in awhile! and as the previous comment mentioned, that isn&#039;t some weird pressure build up, its a compliment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:I agree this is really good, thanks for the translations&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:BTW you have the fastest chapter updates I&#039;ve seen in awhile!&lt;br /&gt;

::That&#039;s most probably because this light novel has the shortest chapters that you&#039;ve seen in a while! :D And chap 6 done! Hell yeah!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::Thanks for chapter 6. This is a really good light novel. Can&#039;t wait for the next chapters. I would like to know though when you get volume 2 whether Kirito stays with Asuna after volume 1 or not. Because looking at the covers for volumes 2 and 3 it seems he teams up with other girls.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::::He does stay with her. Book two&#039;s about the past and the third book is about saving her from a game or something by what I gather...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::::Thanks for the info. I was agonizing over the thought that she might have died and he moved on to party with another player.&lt;br /&gt;

::::::I shouldn&#039;t say so much! I&#039;m spoiling people!&lt;br /&gt;

Seeing the update section.... I&#039;ve realized that I&#039;ve done more than a chap every two days WITHOUT the prologue O.O.....&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:That&#039;s why you&#039;re Sharramon-sama :) thanks for the great releases xD&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::damn! this is like reading Naruto. No, not the storyline, but on the updates... (yours is of course, much faster than the weekly updates) but nonetheless, the suspense, the waiting... it feels the same. Anyway, thank you for the fast updates! SPOILERS!!!!! nuooohh!!!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::oh shit now I&#039;m going to this page regularly just to see if there is any updates..&lt;br /&gt;

don&#039;t understand third volume images ç.ç aren&#039;t they supposed to have their true form? so why there are non.humans? waiting fro spoileeeers XD&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:You will understand once the translation gets that far. It&#039;s not fun being spoiled. Because you just keep wanting to know more.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You are awesome and so is this book! I know this is a minor point, but semicolons are meant to separate two closely related things that could be sentences by themselves, like the first line of the synopsis. For parts like &amp;quot;...floating castle, &#039;Aincrad&#039;; he distinguished...&amp;quot;, it should really be commas on both sides of Aincrad.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Wooo, I left this for a while and its already this much already XD YAY! Again and again, thank you so much, Sharramon-sama XD&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::Thanks for chapter 14! Too bad there isn&#039;t a picture of Kirito in his KoB uniform =(&lt;br /&gt;

:::at first, I thought that SAO is just a .hack&amp;gt;&amp;lt;druaga&amp;gt;&amp;lt;yureka look-a-like... I was wrong. seriously... I&#039;m jealous of Kirito ;_; Sharramon-kakka, you have my deepest gratitude (for your speed-translating). keep up the good work! XD -randompasserby&lt;br /&gt;

==Volume Names==&lt;br /&gt;
Both the first and second volumes are called &amp;quot;Aincrad&amp;quot;? Weird...&lt;br /&gt;

:That&#039;s how they are named. Take a look at the third colour page for volume 01 and 02. &lt;br /&gt;
{| style=&amp;quot;background:black; color:black&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|They are named after the setting they take place in or so it seems. &lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
::I know that, I was just commenting on how it was odd.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::It all makes sense after reading the descriptions of thos images from volume 3 above.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== So because I couldn&#039;t wait... ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I thought hey why not use ATLAS to translate the raw to at least get a hint of what&#039;s going to happen.&lt;br /&gt;
This did not go well, I mean although the program boasts its amazing accuracy in translating, when I translated the whole novel it didn&#039;t even make sense at all. In fact, a Google online translation did better than the $1,400 program.&lt;br /&gt;
So in conclusion, I decided to patiently wait . . . okay never mind! Please!!!! I can&#039;t wait! where&#039;s the next chapter...&lt;br /&gt;
Thank you for translations, I really appreciate it. I LOVE Sword Art Online!-Jun&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I actually did the same thing, but I could understand like one sentence out of 15, and it also helps if you know what ATLAS translates the names as. I also found a timeline of SAO&#039;s events, and used Rikaichan to skim through it (I probably look for spoilers a little too much on series I really like, and I wasn&#039;t disappointed). Anyway though, I&#039;ve been meaning to ask this: sharramon, are you using official Korean translations or fan translations?&lt;br /&gt;
-Enigma&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Official. I&#039;m translating with the book in my hands.... I&#039;ll have to buy another one. This one&#039;s gotten really dirty XP&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I did as well. Oddly, I can figure out quite much of chapter 5 with it. It hurt my eyes and mind though. It feels like deciphering a code @-@. I decide to quit because the deciphering work reduce the enjoyment in reading it and when I read sharramon-sama&#039;s translation to find out he bits I&#039;m missing, it just won&#039;t as fun since I got to know part of the stroy already.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
@Enigma wait there is Korean translations of Sword Art Online? If there is, where could I get my hands on it? -Jun&lt;br /&gt;
Edit: Oh wait, never mind. I ordered the Korean version through AladdinUS. Can&#039;t wait to read it ^_^ -Jun&lt;br /&gt;

Just wondering but could it be that Kirito and Asuna get out of SAO in the 1st volume but Asuna gets kidnapped and put into[Alvheim Online]? And then Kirito goes into the game to save her?

If the book version has only three chapters, then our translation should have also only three chapters, since the web version is gone and the book version is working as the translation reference... --[[User:Darklor|Darklor]] 14:38, 11 April 2011 (UCT)&lt;br /&gt;

Ive been studying japanese for quite a while now, and can happily sayim slowly progressing,and as such decided to buy the published version that&#039;s still in japanese, two questions now: one, is it in kanji/furigana? and two if not what level of reading should I know to be able to read it effectively&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== What are we going to do with 16.5 in the full text version? ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Eventually Volume 1 will be finished, and we will do what we always do with a finished volume: make a full text!! But we have this chapter 16.5 complicating the situation. Does it go in? Stay out? Make two versions (what I think is would be best)? Something else? Let&#039;s decide what&#039;s going to happen before the volumes done.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I say make a full text with reference to 16.5 but not actual text...or throw in a link to 16.5 with a dire &amp;quot;read at own disgretion&amp;quot; message.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
-Ence&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think we should make 2 versions of it, SFW and NSFW... XD - RandomPasserBy&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Don&#039;t add it to the full text. I wouldn&#039;t even add it to the volume 1 overview nor to the &amp;quot;forward to..&amp;quot; box, to be honest. 16.5 may be canon, but it is not part of the book. As far as I know, he had this chapter only posted on his back-site without any reference on the front page. [[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] 08:16, 26 February 2010 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
oh yeah, now that you mention it... the book can&#039;t possibly have this chapter...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Considering all the killing, explicit violence that the book has, its already at least 16+ or young adults.. can&#039;t rate something M just because of some cybersex.. -Irec&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wouldn&#039;t it be better to, at least, put a link in the full text to let those who want to read it in the good context be able to read it ?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

Chapter 16 still links to 16.5... is this intentional or a a side-effect of the nav template? -[[User:Milki|milki]] 03:53, 18 February 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I did not realise there was a chapter 16.5 at all before I came over this... And now that I&#039;ve seen it, I agree that it shouldn&#039;t be put in the full text. What I&#039;m wondering about, though, is if Reki Kawahara really wrote this himself, where it was published and how on earth it came to this site. Oh, and this chapter might be a little hard to notice if you go directly to the full text to read volume 1.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
-&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You know - this is pretty much under the carpet now, but I think this was handled pretty poorly. If 16.5 was not canon, it should have been put under the side stories with an R-18 warning. The author had it on his website with other stories that are up here, so the argument that he didn&#039;t write it is not a very good one. Age appropriate is not good either - R-18 warning as stated, but this site is not an all-ages site to begin with. You have R-18 visual novel projects, Type-Moon&#039;s numerous titles, etc. Some of the posts for removing it were downright confusing: &amp;quot;it left a bad taste in my mouth.&amp;quot; Or &amp;quot;look at what people recognize me for.&amp;quot; I&#039;m sorry, but...what? You didn&#039;t like a chapter, so it should be erased from history? One is going to quit translation of this series because of the &amp;quot;infamy&amp;quot; of it? I know you aren&#039;t in this for public recognition, so why do you care about that? This massive double standard with sexual content is an American value style product that confuses me, but it shouldn&#039;t be influencing what goes up and comes down. We have titles on here that involve graphic descriptions of extreme violence, graphic descriptions of sexual content and innuendo, as well as images of nude people of all ages and violence against them to accompany them. I am really disappointed that management is going down this route, because it&#039;s only a matter of time before other titles get censored or screwed up because of this new standard. - somewhat disappointed and concerned long time reader. --Anonymous&lt;br /&gt;

In my opinion, this wouldn&#039;t be so much issue if the chapter wasn&#039;t included in volume 1 to begin with, it being up there caused confusion to many readers as they think it&#039;s actually in the published version, I was under that very impression for a while, until I had chance to check the JP book version.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
@anon, it seemed you misunderstood the fact, author really wrote 16.5 and he really put it on his website, but he &#039;&#039;never&#039;&#039; put it along with the web version of Aincrad arc, he made a temporally R-18 section named &#039;Word Gear Reverse&#039; and put 16.5 along with some R-18 stories written by someone else  there. So putting it in volume 1 section is a bad idea, and that&#039;s the reason I was strongly against it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Currently BT has a vague stance about the mature content, there is no rule preventing the mature content to be hosted on wiki, but in forums, the rules clearly stated that posting mature content is not permitted. Maybe the higher ups could discuss about this double standard and come up with a single rules set for both wiki and forums.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On a side note: Why so many complaints about the removal of 16.5 but no one cares that ME1&amp;amp;3 can&#039;t be hosted here? Especially when ME1 is mentioned in both anime &amp;amp; published volumes. Just curious. -- [[User:BeginnerXP|BeginnerXP]] ([[User_talk:BeginnerXP|Talk]]) 08:33, 17 September 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Honestly, I don&#039;t want to shift the blame here nor try to explain myself since I suppose none of you would want to hear me out, so I&#039;ll take responsibility for this. Mature content &#039;&#039;&#039;can&#039;&#039;&#039; be posted on the wiki, but &#039;&#039;&#039;must&#039;&#039;&#039; be labelled with a warning, an R-18 tag. However, this is a different case for the forums, where no one is allowed to post such stuff. If you wonder why there is a different standard for the forums, it&#039;s because the rules for the forums were &#039;copied&#039; from Animesuki...Personally, I don&#039;t believe there&#039;s a need to review it.&lt;br /&gt;

As for your last paragraph, Beginner, I think you would know the answer...--[[User:Teh Ping|Teh Ping]] ([[User talk:Teh Ping|talk]]) 21:31, 17 September 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I was not trying to shift blame, only point out the issues with said reasoning. I was particularly surprised that Ping said what he did because he always seemed opposed to removing content over anything that didn&#039;t involve content getting licensed or users making unjust profits. Like I said, I just thought it was handled poorly: it should have simply been moved to the side story section and given an R-18 warning. I did not know about other stories being removed, but if they have, I would of course recommend the same action. Removing R-18 content like this just creates needless problems involving content that BT shouldn&#039;t have to deal with. For example, it&#039;s really easy to argue that DxD or Campione should not be hosted because of their content based on this decision (there is not a single warning of R-18 content either.) It is not any of you guys&#039; responsibility to be the parent for children lurking the internet, anyway. It had a warning when I read it last time, and when I came back to re-read SAO, it was gone completely. I do not have any thoughts about the forum; as it is separate from the Wiki, I do not think it is a problem to enforce a different set of rules. On a closing note, please take this less personally, Ping. I am not making you out to be a &amp;quot;bad person&amp;quot; or whatever strange thoughts you&#039;re having. I wanted my thoughts known, but I didn&#039;t want to clog up the forum seeing as it seemed to be a dead issue. While I would want any removed stories to be restored, the management and translators such as yourself are obviously the ones who have the final word. Restricting content because it doesn&#039;t appeal or seem appropriate to (x) audience is a dangerous direction to go for BT though, I feel. Take it easy and thanks for reading. --Anonymous&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
@Beginner, does ME 1 &amp;amp; 3 contain questionable content? All I know is that they are doujins, so might not belong in a LN wiki like BT. Maybe a link might be good instead of no content (which had me assume no work was done on it, up until recently), but thats up to the heads.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
@Teh Ping, I respect you for your decision to take responsibility for the ire of readers on removing the chapter, though I think its not something you have to do (if it was made out of frustration and a wish for the topic to be dropped). Not sure what was the cause of the removal (I&#039;m willing to listen if you have the time to chat),  I cannot help but feel those who complain so much about it, will not or can not see beyond wanting to have everything in one place for their convenience (the internet is a wide place after all). For those stating it affects BT, do realize that even novels on the market are constantly being revised and edited as they are reprinted, to fit the standards of the time. Removing one event which does not have much plot context (unlike the anime...) and is not even part of the published novel is not going to affect anything, and is a weak point for argument. Comparing other LNs to this is even weaker, considering those rarely even reach the level of content shown here (LNs get edited before release as well...) So do consider your argument on insisting you must be able to find it on BT.--[[User:Gabgrave|Gabgrave]] ([[User talk:Gabgrave|talk]]) 01:51, 18 September 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
@Anon, While I don&#039;t read nor watch DxD &amp;amp; Campione, I know for sure that those 2 series are at most R-15 and still can be sold at normal channels in Japan, while 16.5 is in a completely different situation, it&#039;s clearly R-18 and will never be able to sell alongside other light novels even if it&#039;s published. It&#039;s fine if you compared 16.5 to our visual novel projects, but please give a legit example of R-18 light novel hosting here.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
@Gabgrave, ME1&amp;amp;3 are manga written by author himself, their content are clean, and I particularly like ME1 too, you should be able to find them at some online manga reading sites. The reason we can&#039;t hosted them even though they&#039;re both completely scanslated now, is because of its nature, we don&#039;t host manga here unless the script is posted as well (like ME2). The reason is legit and I respect that decision, it&#039;s just funny that the removal of the questionable content caused so much stir within SAO community here, while 2 clean &amp;amp; good legit stories from the same author not being here didn&#039;t raise any question nor request.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
@Beginner, Thanks for the description, I have the links and will be looking them up. I think why people are not commenting is because like me, they see the red links in the page, and assume they are not translated yet. Only if we happen across some comments that make us aware that they do exists already, then we start looking for it.--[[User:Gabgrave|Gabgrave]] ([[User talk:Gabgrave|talk]]) 02:25, 18 September 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

My bad. Mistaken information received. Removed from post.--[[User:Gabgrave|Gabgrave]] ([[User talk:Gabgrave|talk]]) 03:23, 18 September 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Firstly, when I say trying to shift blame, I would refer to the guy who actually took down the page, Vaelis, the admin of the SAO project. On Baka Tsuki, each project can be removed by three groups of people. The translator of the work, the Supervisors, and the admins. Since we&#039;re going to be stuck here for a while, I&#039;ll break it down.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
First, while I said that I didn&#039;t like having 16.5, I respect the fact that it was uploaded. That was why I never demanded for it to be deleted, even though I am vocal against those who wanted it on &#039;&#039;&#039;just to see that Kirito and Asuna have their relationship consummated&#039;&#039;&#039;, which is a completely stupid excuse (note that I don&#039;t say reason here because there was nothing reasonable at all). When I posted &#039;&#039;&#039;in white&#039;&#039;&#039; that I would go unless it was removed, note that it was in jest. Do note that while I am against it being posted, I am neutral against it being removed because the damage had already been done. [http://www.baka-tsuki.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=59&amp;amp;t=3128&amp;amp;start=2040 All the mess can be read from here until the next 5 pages or so] If you had seen my actions during the Volume 9 incident, you would have realized that if I wanted a page to be deleted, I would have just gone ahead to delete all the stuff way back when I joined this project (as a Supervisor), and how I nearly nuked the entire Accel World project here. Now, I really don&#039;t want Vaelis to be blamed for this, but he did delete it after reading through our arguments (on both parties). This is why I say that I will just take all the blame, because if I go on to explain, other people are just going to be implicated as well, (and I&#039;m pretty much...the fall guy on Baka Tsuki at this point). If you&#039;re going to talk about how I had been whining about it affecting my rep, Gabgrave made the mistake I knew was coming from a mile away (before correcting it). No one is trying to be a &#039;parent&#039; here, but I won&#039;t be elaborating on this part because I&#039;m in class right now&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And yes, I am very frustrated that we&#039;re still arguing over when it has been almost 3 months since this was &#039;resolved&#039;. Unfortunately, I don&#039;t think there would be a proper conclusion in this case. The way we have been going on about this is as if some important story was omitted like how Kirito took on Heathcliff. If you say that it&#039;s important, understand this, it&#039;s not in the official printed LN. If you argue for the case of how the MEs and other stuff are all uploaded even though they&#039;re not in print media, again, bottom line is whether the three groups of people want it online.--[[User:Teh Ping|Teh Ping]] ([[User talk:Teh Ping|talk]]) 04:06, 18 September 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It seems like my point is being missed...removing content because it is &amp;quot;objectionable,&amp;quot; is not something I think BT should do. It&#039;s not in the official printed LN, which is why I said it should be moved to side stories. I don&#039;t really care if it consummates their relationship or not (it&#039;s a harem where one girl is given the &amp;quot;I&#039;m going to win regardless&amp;quot; before said chapter even happens, so...) There is no such thing as &amp;quot;damage done&amp;quot; if you ask me: if the author thought it was good enough to be on his site, I&#039;m not going to judge it as some &amp;quot;garbage&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;painful to read&amp;quot; work of a fan. And while you, Gabgrave, may think DxD/Campione is not R-18, you would have an incredibly hard time persuading someone who was raised in a Western environment otherwise (I read all three of these titles, and they go pretty far, haha.) I&#039;m not sure why anyone is getting upset over this, but I can&#039;t keep a rational topic going for long if I&#039;m the only one trying to do so. I&#039;ll drop it with this. -- Anonymous&lt;br /&gt;

Can&#039;t believe I actually registered an account just to respond to this message. Look, are you trying to guilt trip the other guys here, or are you just trying to get them to say sorry for removing and stuff? From the look of your first paragraph, it already showed that you were trying to blame someone for this, especially Teh Ping. I can understand why Ping wanted to hurry up and get over this because he has better things to do than to respond to someone like you who&#039;s digging up the past for your own sake. If you want to know where your beloved 16.5 went, just follow what Zero got to. Rational topic? How rational is it in the first place when you&#039;re talking about it, &#039;&#039;3 months after it was removed,&#039;&#039; when everyone is planning to just continue on, and how about talking about R-18 and stuff when your American standard doesn&#039;t match what the Japanese assume to be R-18? There&#039;s a reason why Campione and DxD are both published while this 16.5, even with Japan&#039;s lax standard for fanservice nowadays, failed to make the cut. Consider me grateful that it was taken down because it was such a huge distraction (Doesn&#039;t chapter 17 imply that they did it in the first place?). Now, if you&#039;re going to continue to post here regarding this, I think Teh Ping would be pissed that he has to be the one arguing with you instead of working on volume 10 of SAO (I can only remain patient as a reader).--[[User:Wertmog|Wertmog]] ([[User talk:Wertmog|talk]]) 21:38, 18 September 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

I&#039;m honestly kind of impressed. Like, why do either of you visit this site? Apparently neither of you can read at all! I do not care about too much about 16.5. It is easy to find and it does not add much, if anything, to the story. I care about the fact that &#039;&#039;&#039;IT WAS CONSIDERED SOMETHING THAT SHOULD NOT BE UPLOADED AND LATER REMOVED BECAUSE OF OBJECTIONABLE CONTENT.&#039;&#039;&#039; There is nothing about guilt trips and I have no idea why people like you have to make things personal despite my repeated assurances that I was not. The entire point of me bringing up standards is because &#039;&#039;&#039;THERE ARE NO SUCH STANDARDS.&#039;&#039;&#039; What is considered obscene in Japan is not considered obscene in the US, and the opposite is often true as well. When you do things like this, you create a standard. And creating this particular standard jeopardizes other projects in the future because declaring what content is appropriate is a &#039;&#039;very&#039;&#039; slippery slope. There is nothing to argue about; this is simply how things work. That concerns me and I would rather say &amp;quot;this looks dangerous&amp;quot; instead of standing by and waiting for things to play out. I&#039;m glad Ping cares enough to read and respond to my concerns, but it seems like he simply assumed I was complaining about how 16.5 is gone and nothing more. I don&#039;t want to assign &amp;quot;blame&amp;quot; or else I would be quite frank about it (as I am with you two.) I don&#039;t consider it his responsibility that the chapter was taken down, but BT&#039;s as a whole. Furthermore, Ping is free to do whatever he pleases; I doubt he considers &amp;quot;arguing&amp;quot; with me a priority when choosing between the browsing the internet, translating, and whatever other recreational stuff he does. So take your flame baits somewhere else. Or don&#039;t, I said I would drop this, and now I will. I voiced my concerns and what&#039;s done is done. If someone can&#039;t handle me having the last word, insult me or tell me how wrong I am... or let the issue die.

== Similar to Prince Revolution? ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;ve read two chapters of SAO and up to chapter 4 of PR&#039;s Vol3 and so far the settings are really similar, although they&#039;re different in terms of characters and amount of comedy and other things.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It may be very similar, but you can&#039;t say that this setting is very unique in terms of anime and manga, I mean, look at .Hack. I think that this is the similarity is only a result of the similar settings.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
_______________________________________&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Prince Revolution is the name of the site/group that translates the novel &amp;quot;1/2 Prince&amp;quot; by Yu Wo. Not the novel itself. There may be some similiarities to 1/2 Prince, the .Hack//-series or Yureka, but that is because all of them are about virtual reality MMOs. If you look at them from another point of view, you might see the differences in the plot. SAO is about being trapped in the game, with virtual death killing your real body and the struggle to escape this. This is not the case in 1/2 Prince, where the big problem lies in&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
-*************SPOILER ALERT START************ (Is it possible to put the following lines in a spoiler-tab? I have no idea how to do it)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
NPCs getting self-concious and revolting against human players in the game world. Yureka also have a few &amp;quot;virtual death = real death&amp;quot; parts, but the main story is about the main character finding the hacking program called Yureka who is somewhere in the game world. I haven&#039;t read .Hack//, so sadly, I can&#039;t say anything about that.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
-*************SPOILER ALERT END*************&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, think of this before you imply that a novel is a copy of another one. Sure, it may have been an inspiration to SAO (Actually, that depends on which of them were written first), but unless the plot is the exact same thing, they are looked at as two different novels. An example of this is Lion King. It is inspired by Hamlet, but would you sue Disney for trying to copy Shakespeare?&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Yup, there is a SAO manga. I read a few chapter in chinese quite some time ago. &lt;br /&gt;
- [[User:Destinyz|Destinyz]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ah, ok thanks.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Well, for those who intend to read it, a small advice : don&#039;t u_u. The novel story is way better, even though I thought it would be great in anime or manga x). - Allucyfer&lt;br /&gt;

== LAUGHING COFFIN ARC ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ok, I have been debating with myself (I&#039;m going nuts) whether to add the LAUGHING COFFIN ARC in the table of contents- It seems that this arc, happened during Aincrad, a side story that should be included in the Volume 2. But because it&#039;s long (4 chapters) the publishers dropped it, but the events in this is mentioned in vol.1, tho, in a few words only. It&#039;d be nice if we can read the entire story about this right? Kirito, Asuna and other Clearers vs the Laughing Coffin Guild, the biggest PKers in Aincrad. - Saorian&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;d love to read the laughing coffin arc. From what I&#039;ve heard, it might be important to some of the other books. But, would you add it as if it were another book - like instead of Sword Art Online: Volume ## --&amp;gt; Sword Art Online:Laughing Coffin Arc?--[[User:Darn2k|Darn2k]] 14:36, 15 April 2011 (UCT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
How about like this: Volume SS - LAUGHING COFFIN ARC , and stick it between Volume 2 and 3? - Saorian&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I added it - since Side Stories 1,2,3,6 were made into vol2 Aincrad, Side Stories 4 included in Phantom Bullet vol 5 and Side Story 6 got it&#039;s own very own book, vol 7 - It&#039;s safe to say that SAO SS 5 - Laughing Coffing Guild arc, won&#039;t get published as it&#039;s Timeline was passed on already (between vol 2 and 3) The other SS respected the proper timeline...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
----&lt;br /&gt;
Btw. if more timeline issues pop up you could create a timeline page, where the story is listed sorted in chronological order... --[[User:Darklor|Darklor]] 21:57, 16 May 2011 (UCT)&lt;br /&gt;
----&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So is this chapter even published? Because from what I read here it seems it&#039;s out but nobody wants to add it cause we already went past it in chronological order.&lt;br /&gt;
I fail to see how that&#039;s a reason though as the special with Kirito meeting Asuna was inserted after we went past those event.&lt;br /&gt;
Can someone clarify?&lt;br /&gt;
Thanks.--[[User:Mufarasu|Mufarasu]] 22:06, 11 March 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

== Simply Amazing ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is simply amazing. Honestly I&#039;m not much of a crybaby I watch and read sad animes and mangas all the time and just take them in as a story. So far I&#039;ve only cried twice during watching all the animes and mangas I&#039;ve seen in the past 5,6 years of my life, to Bitter Virgin (Manga) and to Kanon 2006 (anime... which truthfully I watch all eps in a single sitting crying from ep 7 onwards practically non stop.). So far this Story has made me cry numerous times. It is so well written and the characters are so real its strange.Only problem I have with it is that I don&#039;t like how volume 2 works. I only really like the AsunaxKirito/Kazuka storyline not all that extra stuff that doesn&#039;t continue on with the story. Sadly the way I see it after reading Volume 1 I can&#039;t see any room for a prequel. The story starts with entering SOA. And nothing that happens up until he kills the Ragout Rabbit matters. I spose how Asuna and Kirito initially met matters slightly but honestly, I find it much better knowning that they knew each other as acquaintances and thats all. Even the part about him having Asuna nap next to him really doesn&#039;t add all that much.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Volume 3 while not as touching seems to bring up a lot of my memories of the first volume as well as adding in some slight new things... it doesn&#039;t really seem it (so far only on chapter 3) but it does so in a subtler way then Vol 1&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Well, read volume 2 as it comes out and stuff. It is full of Kirito&#039;s awesomeness. Also, one of the things I love most about this novel is how &amp;quot;The Black Swordsman&amp;quot; is codeword for &amp;quot;Oh Shi-!&amp;quot; [[User:Ax&amp;amp;#39;el|Ax&amp;amp;#39;el]] 21:09, 16 May 2011 (UCT)&lt;br /&gt;

== The Tentative time line ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think you should remove the tentative time line from the page or put it under spoilers, because it spoils for people who didn&#039;t read it, how the first volume ends.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
First off, thanks so much for the excellent translating job everyone&#039;s doing! But, I&#039;m a little confused as to why v7 is being translated before v5&amp;amp;6. Is v7 a type of stand-alone volume/how does it relate in time to the arch&#039;s of v5&amp;amp;6? Ok, now I think I&#039;m rambling, but I hope you get what I&#039;m asking. Thanks again and keep up the good work!&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
I don&#039;t think so, or at least if it is, no-one has updated to show a larger portion of the story. which is a pity really because there aren&#039;t enough translators, though if decent enough translations are made part by part, and the abundant editors will probably be able to sort out grammar and consistency [[Special:Contributions/92.41.251.249|92.41.251.249]] 16:39, 7 November 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

Hey, I recently started reading sword art online, and I sincerely appreciate the work that&#039;s been done thus far. I&#039;d love to contribute, but an upcoming major exam&#039;s hogging my time. Sword Art&#039;s been great read, and it really helps in stress relief. Once again, thanks all.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== Great story, great translation! ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I just finished volume 4 and I wanted to stop by and say how awesome you guys are for translating this.&lt;br /&gt;
This series is a great piece of science fiction and I&#039;m glad you guys are bringing it to another audience.&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;ve heard how troublesome and time consuming translating can be, especially Japanese, but you&#039;re all doing an awesome job!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

== I think this is an issue ==&lt;br /&gt;

Chapter four of Mother&#039;s Rosario has the link that leads to chapter five, but chapter five isn&#039;t shown as being done or having any link on the main project page.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

How many episodes do you suppose there will be in the anime? Hope they&#039;re more than 12. Also is there only one season planned or will that depend on the ratings? GAME?!?!? mmo based on ALO or visual novel?&lt;br /&gt;

== Replacement of nav table with nav template ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I would hence like to propose that we replace the current (and if I may say, extremely limited capability carrying) nav table system:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
ie:&lt;br /&gt;
{| border=&amp;quot;1&amp;quot; cellpadding=&amp;quot;5&amp;quot; cellspacing=&amp;quot;0&amp;quot; style=&amp;quot;margin: 1em 1em 1em 0; background: #f9f9f9; border: 1px #aaaaaa solid; padding: 0.2em; border-collapse: collapse;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
| Back to [[Sword Art Online:Volume 2 Chapter 3|Chapter 3]]&lt;br /&gt;
| Return to [[Sword Art Online|Main Page]]&lt;br /&gt;
| Forward to [[Sword Art Online:Volume 2 Chapter 4 Part 2|Part 2]]&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
with the new [[Template:SAO Nav|SAO Nav Template]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
ie: {{SAO Nav|prev=Sword Art Online:Volume 2 Chapter 3|next=Sword Art Online:Volume 2 Chapter 4 Part 2}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
which is becoming popular and has more capabilities/advantages.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Advantages of the new system:&lt;br /&gt;
#We can decrease the overall page storage size. (No need to write long code, just the call code will be enough, take a look of this section in edit mode to get the picture.)&lt;br /&gt;
#Have a call code that is easier to:&lt;br /&gt;
##memorize&lt;br /&gt;
##recall&lt;br /&gt;
##and write. (Again, see in edit mode if you still don&#039;t understand)&lt;br /&gt;
#Have page jumping ability to any page in the series regardless of where we currently are, thus speeding up page navigation in case of checking previous or future facts for comparison.&lt;br /&gt;
#Can make changes to template page itself and have the navs on the pages immediately mirror the changes. (Reduction of data redundancy and error, ie: you wont have to go through all the pages and change every single one just editing the template page will be enough).&lt;br /&gt;
#Template&#039;s next and prev links are generic so they can be used for both volume and chapter pages without problems, ie: uniform system.&lt;br /&gt;
#Collapsibility ensures that size is compact and acceptable, for jumping one just needs to expand it by clicking the [show] link.&lt;br /&gt;
#Page center aligned. (Not really important, it looks better than right aligning it, still... minor point)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This template was previously fully implemented but then removed due to some issues. All those in favor or against please respond. If you wish any improvements to the template then please suggest them on the [[Template Talk:SAO Nav]] page. I will address them as best as I can.

Hey hey. If there is no one against it then it is fine to implement it, right? I mean the advantages listed above show that it is more beneficial to implement. And no one having any points against it kinda also suggests the same. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 07:34, 28 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m against it and I already implemented a nav bar with most of the advantages you mentioned. I put it in volume 1 and will do the other volume soon.&lt;br /&gt;
[[User:Vaelis|Vaelis]] 08:47, 28 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hmm so you are using this:&lt;br /&gt;
{{Nav|Sword Art Online:Volume 1 Chapter 1|{{SAO List v1a}}|Sword Art Online}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Page jumping is still not implemented. That is the main functionality of my proposed template. And you say that you are against it? May I ask why? Please explain in detail. I say that there is a great advantage in implementing it because it will allow both users and translators to jump between pages.&lt;br /&gt;
*Translators will be able to navigate between their different chapters more easily and create new chapters with just a click. &#039;&#039;(Plus since the chapter page names will be decided beforehand there won&#039;t be a chance of page name inconsistency that often happens.)&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
*Furthermore, users will be able to navigate more easily as well &#039;&#039;(in the case of dead ends as well as to check a previous chapter for a related fact, or to skip a volume while re-reading, people do that you know)&#039;&#039;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If I recall previously you mentioned that you didn&#039;t like how the template &#039;&#039;looks&#039;&#039; like, is that correct? I must tell you that Infinite Stratos, Itsuka Tenma, Toaru, BakaTest, Chrome Shelled Regios, Dantalian no Shoka have all implemented and started making use of similar templates. I&#039;m only trying to do what is best for this project. Please support me. I assure you that you won&#039;t regret it.

&lt;br /&gt;
On the opposite side the template Vaelis has implemented is rather interesting. Hmm it has properly addressed the problem of repetition, excessive space wastage, as well as the non-user-friendly coding. Particularly that is automatically generating the links. Very interesting. I&#039;ll examine it thoroughly. Maybe I can implement that in my templates somehow. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 17:28, 28 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
I don&#039;t know about other people, but all I need is the link back to Main. The Back and Next is nice extra. For reading, I mainly use my other comp that is not logged on, so I can read cached stuff which is faster. If people don&#039;t already know, if you sign in with a name while reading, you get served fresh pages every time, anon people get faster cached pages.

&lt;br /&gt;
- Personally, I don&#039;t really care as long as &amp;quot;forward&amp;quot; &amp;quot;main page&amp;quot; are included, since I simply tap backspace to get back, though I must say it&#039;d look ugly without the &amp;quot;back button&amp;quot;. Also, jumping through halyard from a volume to another volume is, I must say, unuseful in my case. However, I find the nav bar pretty good-looking, which is the reason why I wasn&#039;t fully opposed back then, even if I was sceptical about it. Personally, if the bar could simply keep the back/forward buttons, the main page buttons, it&#039;d be fine, though I would like the chapter names indicated on th next/previous button. Also, I feel more concerned about these huge references tag that take too much space in the text than the nav bar... [[User:Kira0802|Kira]] ([[User_talk:Kira0802|Talk]]) 21:09, 28 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I agree with Kira. Note this isn&#039;t about SAO directly but rather about this type of navbar as a whole. If I really want to jump chapters/volumes, I really won&#039;t care about 2 clicks instead of 1 (Main -&amp;gt; the chapter I want). Actually, I don&#039;t even use the Main button much, just the Forward one. I can&#039;t recall ever using the Back button. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For me I&#039;m fine whether or not the chapter name is included, because when just reading I don&#039;t care what the name of the next chapter is, I can just click Forward to get to it, and when I&#039;m editing stuff I use the Main Page as a portal (it&#039;d be open in a tab by itself) and the chapter names are available there.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In fact, I&#039;ve even created a group of navs that have most of the advantages you state and maintains the simplicity of the Nav template, but is in my opinion better than the generic Nav template, in that it is specialized for each novel, so if it needs to be changed for some specific novel it can be done without affecting any of the other novels. They can be found [[:Category:Simple_Navbars|here]]. It would be nice if there is some kind of standard that could be decided, for the moment anyways. By the way, I&#039;m starting to think this doesn&#039;t fit in the SAO talk anymore and maybe should have a forum topic.. --[[User:Jonathanasdf|jonathanasdf]] 21:43, 28 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hmm, interesting points, I&#039;ll try and explain my reasoning below:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*You guys might say that you don&#039;t care but you must admit that it is much easier to navigate if it is a one step method (chapter A -&amp;gt; chapter B) rather than a two step method (Chapter A -&amp;gt; Main Page -&amp;gt; Chapter B). While you may say you might not care, page jumping can help speed up navigation for those who reach dead ends or are translating multiple chapters at the same time. Plus the Next, Previous and Main Page Links are already present in the SAO Nav. Additionally I don&#039;t think forum is needed. This is about SAO strictly.&lt;br /&gt;
*About chapter names included in the next previous: my stance is that it makes the whole thing look bulky. And you can simply expand SAO Nav not only to see your own position (black text) but also the positions of all the chapters (translated and untranslated) this helps motivate people to translate more chapters in less time because of the clash between the visual red and blue links.&lt;br /&gt;
*Those who strictly want to use the next/previous/main buttons need not expand the template at all just use the Next, Prev and Main Page Name Links. It&#039;s a system that caters to both types. And just doesn&#039;t restrict itself to one type. Plus the SAO Nav is for the SAO Novels alone so making changes in it will only affect SAO and no other novels.&lt;br /&gt;
*I am not a fan of the words forward and back since they give off a vibe in terms of page navigation history rather than novel navigation (by page history navigation I mean those two back and forward buttons in the Navigation Toolbar of your Internet Browser).&lt;br /&gt;
*Simple Navs only cater to those who read through linearly and only once. Not everyone does. SAO Nav caters to both parties and it&#039;s already ready to roll, so why is it wrong? [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 23:37, 28 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 this helps motivate people to translate more chapters in less time because of the clash between the visual red and blue links.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
hahaha if only that was true :P&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It&#039;s not &amp;quot;wrong&amp;quot; imo, it just seems a bit ... overkill. I&#039;m neither for nor against, in that my stance is &amp;quot;I don&#039;t really care either way as long as there is some way to get to the next chapter&amp;quot;, but I would like it to be standardized. Also, even if this is SAO only I still think it belongs in the forums because it&#039;s hard to quote stuff in wiki. --[[User:Jonathanasdf|jonathanasdf]] 00:54, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It&#039;s actually true. It&#039;s a subconscious trick I learned from my experience with mediawiki. People can&#039;t stand redlinks. They desire to remove them or turn them blue. If they can&#039;t remove them then they can &#039;&#039;&#039;only&#039;&#039;&#039; turn them blue by making articles. This is one of the things I have learned. Please have faith in me. I believe this trick has actually helped speed up the translation rates on many of the projects where similar templates have been implemented. I don&#039;t know about you guys, but I am sick and tired of waiting. If only I could read kanji/hiragana/katagana, I could help translate. But since I can&#039;t I must use such methods. If I didn&#039;t I&#039;d just be a simple leacher (At least this way I can contribute indirectly). Furthermore, I assure you that my template will sate &#039;&#039;&#039;both&#039;&#039;&#039; those who want linear navigation &#039;&#039;&#039;and&#039;&#039;&#039; those who need to jump between chapters quickly. Isn&#039;t that better than just favoring one party? [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 10:20, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

I hereby declare. Implementing SAO Nav &#039;&#039;&#039;will&#039;&#039;&#039; improve not only the navigation but also the rate of translation. It is a time-tested surefire method.

There&#039;s no need for that. Ping&#039;s doing a good job enough so we don&#039;t need to subconsiously press him. IMO, anavbar should just go forward and to the main page. No, wait, you just need to click &#039;SAO&#039; on the sidebar to get back to the main page. Also, Zero, I&#039;ll ask you this: When do you surf through a certain chapter of a volume to another chapter 2-3 volumes after? There&#039;s no need for that, and in my old computer, the bar colapses too slowly. Not that I do really mind, since it&#039;s at the bottom, but still, it loads unnecessary content.

&lt;br /&gt;
I prefer the old one for its simplicity. Just go for previous/next chapter, and navigate 2 other chapters frm main page. short n simple. --[[User:Chancs|Chancs]] 11:29, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Time-tested surefire method? Where&#039;s the evidence? As for why I personally don&#039;t think the chapter jumping is useful, it is because I actually rely on chapter titles to look for where I want to jump to, and this navbar doesn&#039;t have (and can&#039;t really have) chapter titles. So, to me there is no advantage of this navbar over the old one, so I am not supporting it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At the same time, to me there is no disadvantage that this navbar brings since my internet and computer are fast enough to load both at around the same speed, so I am not against it either... --[[User:Jonathanasdf|jonathanasdf]] 13:13, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

I completely agree with &#039;chapters title&#039; issue --[[User:Chancs|Chancs]] 13:27, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Simple design is fine, but the aforementioned lack of chapter title is a huge turn-off for me as well --[[User:TheQwertiest|TheQwertiest]] 14:15, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is time tested. Shortly after it&#039;s implementation Infinite Stratos picked up it&#039;s pace of translation as did Itsuka Tenma and Baka Test, I will concede that for some reason it didn&#039;t work on Hidan no Aria, but it still has a high success rate. Toaru and Chrome Shelled don&#039;t count because they are near completion. About the chapters title issue. I can easily implement further variable tags that can take chapter names from writers and thus display them like the nav table of old. Even though I won&#039;t like that but if you guys say that you prefer it that way I can do it. Or I can Implement a system like the one in the [[Template:Nav]]. To have both links and have chapter names be generated automatically. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 16:20, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I surf/go back to check up on a previous fact. For example in chapter 9 of volume 4 the people from Volume 2 make an appearance. I can go back to refresh my memory of them. And sorry I don&#039;t just read a story once. I find that I understand new things each time I read them (like foreshadowings, predictions, etc). Each time I read through I find new and more interesting tidbits. And I am not alone in this. Each and every person goes through stories more than once, either due to the aforementioned reasons or just because they want to read through it again. And it is not definite that they will read through all the volumes linearly. Some might want to skip certain volumes. And I for one find going back to the main page tiresome. It&#039;s unnecessary. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 16:33, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Though &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. Infinte Stratos was pretty much because Ping joined in. The content is rather easy. So is Baka-Test. I don&#039;t know about Itsuten though. However, the implentation of nav bar coincided with the summer vacations, if I remember well, so it&#039;s another factor.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. OK, fine, some do use the &#039;skip a few chapters&#039; function. However, from what I see from the comments, no one else needs it really.&lt;br /&gt;
[[User:Kira0802|Kira]] ([[User_talk:Kira0802|Talk]]) 16:59, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Yeah, I&#039;m not sure that counts as proof, since the cause-effect could really go either way. Rather, I have a feeling it is because the translation speed picked up that there was more attention which led to the navbar being implemented. After all, I only see this navbar in the most popular novels...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And I was talking about the chapter names in the expanded navbar. I don&#039;t really care about chapter names in the next/prev because the only time I need chapter names is when I&#039;m looking back for stuff. I don&#039;t think this navbar can easily have chapter name support in the expanded mode because some of them are really long. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;ll try to stop writing anything more here since my stance is neutral anyways... --[[User:Jonathanasdf|jonathanasdf]] 17:45, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;About being not needed:&#039;&#039; Dude, that&#039;s how all new things start out. People think they don&#039;t need them but give a while of use and it becomes indispensable. A few centuries ago people didn&#039;t need electricity or natural gas as much as they do now. But now, they start rioting if it&#039;s cut off for too long.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;About Translation Speed:&#039;&#039; Ping was present before the template was added as well but only two volumes were translated. However after the Infinite Stratos Nav was implemented I believe a fire was sparked in Ping. I believe the redlinks were the motivation or rather the inspiration he needed. Of course I don&#039;t think this method affects everyone. But I&#039;m sure it does affect some. and their example will move others, kind of like those cartoons where a little rock knocks down a bigger one which in turn knocks over an even bigger one, thus triggering an avalanche. We need to motivate people, even if the most mundane or subliminal methods are present I believe we should grasp and use them. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 17:49, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Even if it is circumstantial evidence at best I have faith in this method. About chapter names: True it would be difficult to implement full chapter names. But it is possible in some cases. However we are not talking abpout nav templates as a whole. Only for SAO. Please bear that in mind. And SAO does not have many named chapters. So that isn&#039;t an issue here. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 17:55, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
...Zero, why would Ping scroll the nav bar anyways to see the red links? In my case, I post the translation, then I say &#039;Goodbye&#039; and leave. Also, he posts his translation progression in the forums, in a portfolio. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For the chapter names, I&#039;d like to say that I want to know where I&#039;m heading when I press &#039;forward&#039;. Especially when there&#039;s 24 chapters in a volume that you don&#039;t care to remember which chapter you are on. [[User:Kira0802|Kira]] ([[User_talk:Kira0802|Talk]]) 21:38, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Seeing red once would be enough, it stays in your head. Plus it is a fact that the pace picked up after implementation. And like I said I can add the next/prev page name display functionality if you guys really want it. But that&#039;s something to be requested on the [[Template Talk:SAO Nav]] page. It&#039;s actually quite simple to implement that. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 00:45, 30 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
------------&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
OK, here are the facts, ingnoring the IS argument since it was mostly because Ping started translating like a madafter he finished Index. They obviously show the opposite of what you are saying. Here&#039;s my statement: &#039;&#039;&#039;The translation pace does not get faster if there is a nav bar of added, with all the red links and else. It might even slow the pace.&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Itsuten: Volume 1 got completed 7 days earlier than Volume 3. Volume 1 was done before the nav bar was added, and volume 3, after. Can&#039;t say if it worked or not, but it&#039;s more penching towards the &#039;no&#039; side.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Hidan no Aria: The comparison before/after is obvious. It didn&#039;t work.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Dantalian: What is the number of chapters completed since the nav bar was added? 0. It probably didn&#039;t work.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Chrome Shelled Regios: 41k done in around four months. Around 178k before for the same length of time. Didn&#039;t work.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Toaru Majutsu no Index, NT and SS: I can&#039;t find the updates page, but it probably changed nothing. However, Ping retired shortly after, so the place probably got slower. Following that reasoning, I say that it has less translation after. Though let&#039;s put this in the gray zone if you really want to insist.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Baka To test: Volume7 has been done in 78 days. Volume 3.5 in 76. Hwever, since the nav bar was added during the translation of 7, soI can&#039;t use that. As for Volume 7.5, I didn&#039;t calculate it as different chapters were done in different orders, and that I use the beginning of the first chapter and the creation of the full text as references.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Sword Art Online: During the time the bar was used, there were no completed chapters. Did not work.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, you argument does not stand, Zero. [[User:Kira0802|Kira]] ([[User_talk:Kira0802|Talk]]) 15:45, 30 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

:Finally, someone who does his homework. I see, but I still hold that it does motivate others at a subconscious level (so much so that people don&#039;t realize it, normal rate is that it takes half a year to translate a single volume). It does not change the fact that SAO Nav will make navigation easier. Does it? Easier navigation leads to more popularity in websites which in turn will lead to faster development here. &#039;&#039;&#039;[http://www.mardiros.net/good-navigation.html That is a fact]&#039;&#039;&#039; (See &#039;&#039;Less clicks the better&#039;&#039;). Jeez it&#039;s even drilled into every Computer Science student while discussing website development. Just look at the sidebar on the left. Why do you think they listed and linked the project names there when they could have made a separate page with the list? Answer: for faster navigation. Just because you won&#039;t use it, it&#039;s not right to ignore those who do. If you think there are people who would use it, shouldn&#039;t you accommodate them? Or will you ignore them just because they don&#039;t think like you. That&#039;s why I integrated next prev in all the nav templates, so that &#039;&#039;both sides would be happy&#039;&#039;.

&lt;br /&gt;
:You also mentioned (many posts ago) that the SAO Nav would collapse slowly. That&#039;s a personal problem. Since coding is used for the collapsing function, it stands that it&#039;s the fault of your computer alone. Nowadays everyone has at least a Core 2 Duo level processor. Those who don&#039;t are way behind the times. If you also have a Core 2 Duo or higher level processor then you must have CPU % intensive processes running on your computer in the background (try terminating them if there are, just be sure to check if they aren&#039;t a critical process on the net). But even if you don&#039;t and there is some other reason for the slowness that is no concrete reason to shelve faster navigation. The bar is at the bottom. By the time you would reach the bottom of the page (while reading) it would already have been collapsed. Like I said before it might not seem necessary now but give it a few weeks and it&#039;ll become indispensable. That&#039;s how it always goes with every new thing.

&lt;br /&gt;
:Toaru and Chrome Shelled Regios were already near completion before the navbar was implemented. The navbar does not seem to work for nearly completed projects for some reason. I acknowledge that weak point. I also acknowledged that the navbar doesn&#039;t affect everyone but those it does effect would in turn affect others. As for SAO I don&#039;t think enough time was given before it was taken down. Thus that cannot be included. Hidan no Aria: well I won&#039;t say anything on those guys. They&#039;d probably take offense. But at least they didn&#039;t reject the template so they must have either found it useful or didn&#039;t care. Come to think about it if you don&#039;t care either way then there isn&#039;t any problem is there?

:Yes. Yes. Yes. I am a &amp;lt;big&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;BIG&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;/big&amp;gt; fan. But I can&#039;t translate (although I can be an editor/proofreader, but I don&#039;t think it&#039;s enough). So I did what I could and made a nav template with advanced features. I wanted to help in any way I could. And what happened? A few days later all the changes I made were removed just because it looked slightly different from before. Look, with progress comes change. You can&#039;t help it. If you can&#039;t adapt then we&#039;ll just stay stuck in the same place forever. If you google it you&#039;ll find thousands of articles by famous website developers saying one thing. The lesser the number of page loadings required to get to a goal the better, aka &amp;quot;less clicks the better&amp;quot;. Why do you think the sidebar with links to all projects exist? Why do you think that the chapters are transcluded into one volume page after said volume is completed? Answer: people want to reach their goal quickly and with less page loading. Please, I humbly request that I be allowed to apply SAO Nav. It will speed up page navigation for sure, thus it is &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;beneficial&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039; &#039;&#039;&#039;(not detrimental)&#039;&#039;&#039; to the SAO Project.

Think I have an idea about the resistance, your version is nice but it&#039;s a lot of work to update.

&lt;br /&gt;
:I can promise to make and update them for a long time. And I promise that before I leave I will train a successor that can do it as good as or even better than me. I can&#039;t say forever since life doesn&#039;t have any guarantees. Plus actually the templates are understandable by anyone who just sits down and looks at the code properly. That&#039;s how I learned, at least (ie: By looking at others work and understanding how it is done). Furthermore I think there are candidates for my successor here already. Vaelis who designed [[Template:Nav]] for instance, there&#039;s also larethian. And what do you mean it is a lot of work to update? For a new volume, all you have to do is copy the code for the previous row, make the necessary changes (ie: change the volume number and chapter links) and viola! It isn&#039;t tough at all. The people at other projects have already learned how to update them. Just a few days ago [[Template:Hidan no Aria Nav]] was updated with a full volume and not by me.

== About Volume 6 Chapter 13 ==&lt;br /&gt;

Excerpted from a dialogue from Vol. 6 Chapter 13:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kikuoka: &amp;quot;...That was really shocking. I thought that this little thing was the ALO support system «Navagiation Pixie»... but to gather so much information and make conclusions at such a short time. Little girl...are you interested in &#039;&#039;&#039;pu&#039;&#039;&#039;...no, do you want to work for the «Virtual Division»?&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think it should be &amp;quot;la&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;ra&amp;quot; instead of &amp;quot;pu&amp;quot;. The &amp;quot;ra&amp;quot; part is actually a foreshadowing to the next main arc, Alicization.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I didn&#039;t really understand what he meant to say so I left it as the translator had it. I think the &amp;quot;pu&amp;quot; might be part of &amp;quot;public&amp;quot;?

just asking. &amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp; ..::[[User:Gradient|Gradient]]::.. 09:29, 4 January 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That probably makes more sense, but &amp;quot;Caliber&amp;quot; seems to be an intentional English spelling. It is probably meant to be a pun. [[User:Thinklife|ThinkLife]] 10:53, 4 January 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I originally had it as Calibur for the sword name we are familiar with, but I happen to glance at the last chapter while counting parts, and sigh. The author went and explained the name of the sword when Sinon asked about it. That&#039;s how it ended up as Caliber.

== Asuna&#039;s Avatar - a mystery ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Correct me if I&#039;m wrong, but didn&#039;t it say that Asuna did NOT buy the NervGear she uses when playing SAO? If so, why is her avatar a perfect image of herself? Didn&#039;t the sellers only scan the people who actually BOUGHT the NervGear? Since Asuna just used the NervGear which wasn&#039;t hers... wouldn&#039;t that make her avatar look like someone else? @___@&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Nah, you remember how Cline said when you start up you have to calibrate it to yourself? So when she put it on, she had to go through the calibration, thus it looks like her. [[User:Syaoran|Syaoran]] 01:14, 17 January 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I doubt that NervGear has the scanning functionality. As a specialized gear, it wouldn&#039;t need scanning functionality for normal game play. Another manga with a similar virtual reality background [http://www.batoto.net/comic/_/comics/yureka-r101 Yureka] has a similar avatar system and has a separate body scanning step as well. -[[User:Milki|milki]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Well, my evidence was these lines:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;There are high density signal sensors in the NERvGear covering our whole head. So it can tell not only how our brains look, but our faces too...&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
And&lt;br /&gt;
Calibration was where the NERvGear measured «how much you had to move your hand to reach your body». This was done to reproduce the sense of feel accurately within the game. So to say, it was almost as if the NERvGear had data about our exact figures saved inside itself. [[User:Syaoran|Syaoran]] 02:04, 17 January 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I suspect that, while the NERvGear would be able to scan the face to reproduce facial expressions to an extent, it does not do the same for the rest of the body. Calibration could probably be done by just measuring nerve signals - move your hand up towards you until you touch your body, and it would just recognize your hand/arm movement until you touch your body. -[[User:Milki|milki]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Actually, currently there is a machine that can calculate your body muscle and fat composition by running electricity though your body and it is just as big as a regular scale. Moreover it is easy to obtain your height and leg length through the calibration process. By applying this data, it is pretty easy to build a body that is similar to your current body.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Another theories is to use ultrasonic (or supersonic) sound wave to obtain your body image. NERvGear can emit microwave strong enough to melt your brain so it is not entirely impossible.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My concern is how the did it obtain the character hair style since the NERvGear is like a bike helmet ^^!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is only my speculation, anybody whom actually an expert in this field please feel free to correct--[[User:Hayate-sama|Hayate-sama]] 13:11, 17 January 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The NERvGear is an mini MRI/NMR (for scanning, and pulsed magnetic stimulation for feedback) so it can scan the head and face. No idea how it gets eye and hair color though. It might be able to find out the lenght of the hair and how curly/strait it is by the hight percition scanning. To even work the NERvGear needs submilimeter acuracy so scanning the hair will be easy. (Anon)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For the hair style: I think hair style is something the players can change by themselves, like how one can pick up movable objects, I think combing would be allowed at least. The only difference is hair color which, from what I know from Aria in the Starless Night (SAO SS), is customizable via a monster drop item. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 22:57, 17 January 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For the body, currently it is possible to take multiple photographs from different angles and compile them to make holograms, thus it should be possible to do the same here (especially since the tech is way advanced here). All one would need to make sure is that the height is given which could be used as a scale for the 3d photo. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 22:57, 17 January 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The skin tone, eye color etc could also be derived from photos, no mystery at all. You can be assured since I am a Computer Science graduate. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 22:59, 17 January 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wasn&#039;t there a part where they said her bro bought the NGear and the game, but could not play it as he was overseas, so she was the first to play it? In other words, Asuna would be the first user of the game, and it would be calibrated to her. This assumes that the brother is not a beater, but even then, beta accounts were deleted or reset at the commence of the full game. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If we are discussing about how the body type, height, weight, sex etc was captured, well, they did say they had to key in certain particulars, and run their hands around their bodies. About the Hair styles and color, perhaps its more of what NG reads the mind as being the most comfortable with, through reading of the brainwaves of users in the first hour. Afterall, its not like all the characters in SAO have black hair, but multicolored, which I&#039;m sure would not be true IRL... then again, this is aniverse after all... --[[User:Gabgrave|Gabgrave]] 23:23, 17 January 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
@Zero Yeah, you can use pictures to create a 3D object but the problem is how to take them ^^! unless you have a mirror as big as you, otherwise, it impossible to take those pictures yourself.--[[User:Hayate-sama|Hayate-sama]] 01:13, 18 January 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Please note that SAO occurs in a more advanced world. Furthermore I said that height would be given (ie: entered as a perimeter) so that it can be used as a scale. Thus resizing the image would be possible. Nowadays there are graphic plugins for GIMP and Photoshop that allow resizing (blowing up of pictures, or more simply, making them bigger) without loss of quality. In an advanced world it would be a better process and more commonly used (ie: common knowledge). The main point here is that what we consider specialized knowledge would be common in the setting of SAO. After all, &#039;&#039;virtual reality has become real&#039;&#039; in the setting.

A famous quote from Arthur C. Clarke: &#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic&amp;quot;&#039;&#039;&#039;. You shouldn&#039;t think so deeply on it. Also it&#039;s a fact that as time will pass, what is considered advanced now will be considered common in the future. A general purpose computer, at the beginning, was a machine that was superbly expensive so much so that the normal person could not own it. Nowadays it&#039;s in every home. Well that&#039;s over the span of 60 years. But with things like [http://www.howstuffworks.com/invisibility-cloak.htm invisibility cloaks] being developed, you really can&#039;t say that what I&#039;m saying is wrong.

KR is still translating it. I just finished my editing portion on it to the current page he is at. The chapter is 98 pages long and he has 21 more pages to go [[User:Lp113|Lp113]] 22:56, 6 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

98 pages? Seriously? No wonder it take longer than usual to translate. I&#039;ll wait for it to be released, because it feels weird to skip over it and read the volume 6.

There is chapter 6 and 7 in volume 5. There is also a chapter 7 in volume 6, that I wanted to make into prologue, but our admin Vaelis changed it back to like the book when he fixed the above mistake.

Aaaaah I see. Thank you for clarifying and keep up the good work, it&#039;s a lot more fun to read the properly translated versions over the machine translation.&lt;br /&gt;

&#039;&#039;&#039;PLEASE TRANSLATE VOL. 5 CHAPTER 6 :D (or upload what&#039;s done of it); It feels very awkward to simply skip 2/3 of a chapter.&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I don&#039;t mean to sound rude or anything but could the translators focus on finishing chapters 6 and 7 of Volume 5 , I do wanna read read aria in the starless night but even more than that I wanna finish reading Phantom bullet and there is just 2 untranslated chapters preventing me from reading an entire volume. Again I&#039;m sorry if I&#039;m acting rude, and I know that its not easy to translate. [[Username:Leonzell (not registered here) 1:44 AM GMT+10&lt;br /&gt;

Given the previous banter from certain users about this topic in the recent past, this does come off as a little rude.

If you cannot wait, the first chapter of book 6 does cover the events that happen in those missing chapters in summary. You do not really need to worry if you will miss anything important, the main plot is covered.

Actually, I still patiently waiting for chapter 6 to be fully translated, even though I have an urge to just skip it and read the volume 6.&lt;br /&gt;
But....how should I say it.... It feels &#039;incomplete&#039; if I just skip it (I&#039;m a bit perfectionist, sorry). So I beg you, if you have free time (which must be hard to find since you also have real life), please, would you consider to fully translate the chapter 6?

 quotes - &amp;quot;&amp;quot; or “” or &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
 Well, while writing on a piece of paper with a pen “” and ’ are used&lt;br /&gt;
 however &amp;quot;&amp;quot; are known as typewriter quotes and are also completely acceptable&lt;br /&gt;
 But &amp;quot;&amp;quot; or &#039; takes up less space so it is preferred for use in Media wiki based websites like this one.&lt;br /&gt;
 as for &amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt; These are used to &#039;&#039;italicize&#039;&#039; the text. Please ignore them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In other words it doesn&#039;t really matter unless you want to optimize space usage since they both look the same no matter which one you use. So please ignore it.

&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m a little confused. In the GGO arc... Is it &#039;&#039;&#039;Bullet&#039;&#039;&#039; of Bullets or &#039;&#039;&#039;Ballet&#039;&#039;&#039; of Bullets? Considering how Battle Tournaments are normally be named, &#039;&#039;&#039;Bullet&#039;&#039;&#039; of Bullets makes less sense than &#039;&#039;&#039;Ballet&#039;&#039;&#039; of Bullets (which actually fits more as far as tournament names go). Reason: fighting and dancing have often been interlinked. In medieval times strong noble warriors were also known for being good dancers since the movements used in battle are often similar to dance movements. See: [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capoeira Capoeira], [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calinda Calinda]. Oh I&#039;m getting off track. Anyways, since fighting and dancing are similar it&#039;s more likely the tournament is named &#039;&#039;&#039;Ballet of Bullets&#039;&#039;&#039; (even if guns are now used, it has historical meaning).

== Another SAO SS? ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Greetings. When I visited the author old site I saw several items that might be SAO SS.(well some are already being translated.)&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Like [Aria in the Starless Sky], [Absolute Solitude], [Fortune Star], [Resettable Saver], SS5-[A Murder Case in the Area], SS7-[Cradle of the Moon], and [Waterworks] (not sure about some of the title since I&#039;m using Google translate.)&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Aria in the Starless Sky&amp;amp;A Murder Case in the Area are already on translation. If it isn&#039;t too troublesome,may I ask if the other will also be put into translation somewhere in the near future? Thanks before.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m very intersting in those you mentioned as I have never run into them before, could you check if there&#039;re actual text inside? Of all those, I only have Cradle of the Moon, which is SS based on the Alizication arc, which is still untranslated so it has low priority for now. -- [[User:BeginnerXP|BeginnerXP]] 19:34, 15 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
The web version is similar to the published version, but not exactly the same. Any more information I can give is a spoiler, but if you don&#039;t mind spoilers you can go look at the images of volume 9. --[[User:Pryun|Pryun]] 01:23, 18 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hmm... roger that, coz i was confused looking at the images in vol 9 i see kirito and asuna that we are all familiar with, but in the web version there&#039;s a disclaimer saying that the kirito is not the kirito that we know of. I am talking about the roughly translated &amp;quot;Alicization Arc (Web Version)&amp;quot; in the mainpage btw. [[User:Kyo171|Kyo171]] 01:30, 18 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Alicization web version chapter 1 on the wiki is practically the same as the Prologue I of vol 9, author did a lot of minor changes including rewriting in a few places, but the overall summary is still the same. The reason readers felt it wasn&#039;t related to Kirito we know will be explained in the later chapters, but he&#039;s certainly the same Kirito. Alicization is currently the largest arc of SAO series (and I assume it&#039;d be the final main arc of the series too) and would need 5-6 volumes to cover its entire arc -- [[User:BeginnerXP|BeginnerXP]] 09:19, 18 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

ahhh.. thanks for the clarification, i have one more question, when would be the most optimum time to read the side story &amp;quot;versus&amp;quot;, the accel world crossover side story? I am currently on vol 5. --[[User:Kyo171|Kyo171]] 09:42, 18 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m not sure about Accel World side, but for SAO, there&#039;s no reference to anything significant after Fairy Dance, so I think it&#039;s fine to read it right after vol.4, but the story actually took place just slightly before Alicization arc, so author actually wants readers to read it after vol.8 (Accel World vol.10 released after SAO vol.8) -- [[User:BeginnerXP|BeginnerXP]] 10:27, 18 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== It&#039;s weird ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Aria in the Starless Night Side Story is when Kirito and Asuna meet for the first time in SAO. But do both or just Asuna forget about the other? In the other volumes it seems that Asuna got interested in Kirito after she saw him living (lazing around on the field) the game just as he would in reality (ie: the events in Vol8 Ch1, this is mentioned in other volumes too). Did Asuna forget about the events in Aria or what? Or did the author make a slight miss? [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  13:35, 21 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It might be best to think of it like they simply met at a coffee shop, sure, they were fighting alongside each other, but that wasn&#039;t enough to get them past a formal acquaintanceship. [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] 14:24, 21 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Heeh~ Sure &#039;&#039;and the whole bath thing just went over everybody&#039;s head~. Yup~ I&#039;m sure that was something easy to forget~.&#039;&#039; Like that&#039;d ever happen. That&#039;s why I&#039;m confused. He was the guy who introduced her to how food could taste better, he was the guy who taught her that there were better living conditions than INNs, he was the guy who taught her not to overkill and how to choose better weapons. I can get them being at the level of formal acquaintances till that point. What I&#039;m confused about is that in the other volumes there is no mention of her meeting him before the lazing around incident. Like they never even met before that. Weird isn&#039;t it? Well maybe it will be mentioned in vol8 chap1. I can&#039;t wait for the translation. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  16:39, 21 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think there was though, although it was a little subtle, back in the first volume, when it talked about Asuna going around and recruiting the boss assault team. [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] 17:32, 21 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I dunno, Asuna might have blocked off some of that since it wasn&#039;t an all pleasant experience for her. Plus she still did keep that I want to clear this as fast as possible attitude til she met him in the upper floors again, so maybe she just forgot about it while trying to clear? I will agree with you, it is a pretty bad plot hole since you gotta think about it a lot to find a reason. [[User:Syaoran|Syaoran]] 18:10, 21 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I don&#039;t think that it is really a plot hole, as aria is a side story, but then again, recently I have been feeling like Kawahara has been giving them too much time together in side stories, if they were in a group of seven in aria, it would have been much better I believe. [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] 18:13, 21 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was pretty weird that Asuna and Kirito don&#039;t remember this some minor details have also been left out while in volumes but this meeting is just too big of an event so that they could forget but well seeing it is just a side story I guess it should be just fine as just seeing it in a way like you have said before Asuna after not seeing him again just started going crazy wanting to clear the game and Kirito being a Kirito just kinda forgot since the next time they saw each other took place about 1 year and 5 months later??[[User:Lelouch545|Lelouch545]]3:54, 11 Jule (PCT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It&#039;s possible that the author hadn&#039;t thought of any of these events when he wrote Volume 1. There are plenty of other inconsistencies throughout the side-stories, too. Since the side-stories are added after the main arc is over, it&#039;s best not to delve in too deep --[[Special:Contributions/92.239.153.44|92.239.153.44]] 06:21, 11 June 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

Well seems they made a drastic fix in the anime. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  16:31, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thinking of it , they never said once that Asuna falled in love with Kirito at the first meeting right ? They said she loved him when she had seen him &amp;quot;living&amp;quot; the game , but being clearers , it was obvious that they had met each other a while before , for Bosses figths , while mapping or other game contents, so the two of them meeting after one month of game isn&#039;t weird right ? For the memories, do you recall all the things you&#039;ve done with your acquaintances ? I can&#039;t of course , and in SAO  I think there&#039;s a lot more of memories than in our real life, so memories about an other player they met and isn&#039;t that important for them isn&#039;t really worthy of being talked about in the main plot.

== Material Editions ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Material Editions? Is this the name of a new volume? Or a web volume? Or what? I need to know so that I can properly sort the info on the wikipedia page. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  17:07, 29 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Material Edition (ME) series is a series of &#039;&#039;&#039;doujinshis&#039;&#039;&#039; created by Kawahara Reki himself using the pen name &amp;quot;Kunori Fumio&amp;quot; (he used that pen name when he was writing the web novel of SAO). Most but not all of the volumes of the ME series are side stories. He sells the ME series at the Comitia market (not Comic Market) and also some doujinshi shops.&lt;br /&gt;
Below are the list of Material Edition volumes:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* ME1 - The Progressor (a short manga chapter drawn by Kawahara himself)&lt;br /&gt;
* ME2 - Early Characters&lt;br /&gt;
* ME3 - Ceramic Heart &lt;br /&gt;
* ME4 - Cold Hand, Warm Heart&lt;br /&gt;
* ME5 - Salvia&lt;br /&gt;
* ME6 - Algade Showdown&lt;br /&gt;
* ME7 - Continuation. Aria of the Starless Night&lt;br /&gt;
* ME8 - First Chapter of Rondo (second floor side story)&lt;br /&gt;
* ME9 - Monochrome Concerto&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
ME9 - Monochrome Concerto. yes, third floor, I&#039;d do it if I can find raws.--[[User:Pryun|Pryun]] - [[User_talk:Pryun|Talk]] 21:17, 29 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

Regarding Pryun-san question about Sword Art Online: Material Editions 1.In my opinion,if it&#039;s allowed,please include the ME1.As it&#039;s a gaiden that&#039;s made by the same author supplementing the canon storyline.It&#039;ll be a sad thing if it&#039;s not posted and no manga reader site have posted it on theirs.--[[User:User753|User753]]-[[User talk:User753|Talk]]- 00:41, 1 May 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Based on what I have seen so far I believe that ME1: The Progressors should be named &amp;quot;The Clearers&amp;quot; instead since that is what the title is talking about in regards to the story and all the translations so far have used the term &amp;quot;Clearer&amp;quot; instead of &amp;quot;Progressor&amp;quot; --[[User:Arctosa|Arctosa]] 10:43, 10 June 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Wouldn&#039;t it be better to rename the chapter pages to include ME#. Example: &#039;&#039;&#039;Sword Art Online:ME9:Monochrome Concerto&#039;&#039;&#039; I mean now that Rondo has continued, so will Monochrome Concerto. It will avoid clashing in the future since you&#039;re probably gonna insert the same include tags as you have in First Chapter of Rondo and then the page name conflict with the side story, y&#039;know. Plus it will become easier to categorize the ME chapters and compile them in the Material Editions volume page when they&#039;re all done.

&lt;br /&gt;
Just wanted to thank all you guys for working hard and translating the SAO series.&lt;br /&gt;
Now that nearly everything is translated I wanted to ask, how far along is the novel in Japan? Cause when I try to look it up I cant read the pages cause they&#039;re all in Japanese D:&lt;br /&gt;
And is the &amp;quot;cradle of the moon&amp;quot; chapter going to be translated or not, cause from what I read it&#039;s included in the Alicization arc.&lt;br /&gt;
If it is I think it should be removed from the page, as everything else is 100% and this is the only non-translated part so it sorta ruins it when you scroll down and see everything.&lt;br /&gt;
Thanks again to all the translators and editors! --[[User:Mufarasu|Mufarasu]] 13:31, 16 June 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

Better than having the story butchered or cut short in the middle. I&#039;ve always thought 12-13 eps was too little. Besides, the wait will make it all the more worthwhile. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  12:59, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

Very true, I feel that if they released them all at once, I would die before I got to watch any. Although, I am actually quite worried, mainly about the few disconnects in the story, sure they have a chance to correct them, but I want things to progress along with the novels, such as Asuna, I have this bad feeling that they are going to try to get them together right away, which I believe would make things worse. Also the others, if they try to make a harem ending, or some kind of ending where it is unclear who Kazuto ends up with, that will piss me off. Waiting avidly for the new episode.

Urgh. Well, ep 2 is okay, I guess. But I don&#039;t like the fact that they removed so much. It&#039;s like the depth of the story has been filled in till the plot becomes shallow (kinda like how one fills in a perfectly good water well).

I&#039;m proficient enough in &#039;&#039;&#039;verbal&#039;&#039;&#039; japanese. Plus it helps to read the novel. Damn it&#039;s like they summarized the whole side story. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  14:28, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

There&#039;s no point if the anime is a mere summarization of the LN! It&#039;s like draining the juice out of an orange and forcing others to eat just the soft inner-skin. Well... it was okay for those who haven&#039;t read the LN especially Kirito&#039;s really cool part, but I don&#039;t like it that they cut all the rest of the plot (don&#039;t worry I&#039;m not gonna spoil it). If you squeeze the plot too much it ruins it. Sigh, and they stuck to the plot with Accel World so I was looking forward and hoping... Well lets hope they do better next ep.

I have not seen the episode yet, so I can not say too much, but remember that Accel World had some things that were missing as well, not so much the plot, but things that helped pull things together. [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] - [[User_talk:Draeke|Talk]] - 15:02, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And there is a point, and the point is the orange, it is the taste of the orange, the feel of the orange, the experience of eating the orange, whether it be juice, fruit, or some viscous substance consisting of orange, orange is orange, and it tastes like orange. [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] - [[User_talk:Draeke|Talk]] - 15:07, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
True for the first. False for the second. The inner skin of an orange itself doesn&#039;t taste like orange you know. I&#039;m talking about that thin white skin you see after you peel off the thick outer orange colored skin. You know, the one that holds the inner juiciness together. Besides, I&#039;m saying it&#039;s okay. It&#039;s just that I don&#039;t like the fact that they removed all that good stuff. You&#039;ll know what I&#039;m talking about when the subs are out.

&lt;br /&gt;

Like drops from a full bottle, true. And don&#039;t worry, I understand. Soon, you&#039;ll understand what I&#039;m talking about as well. I&#039;ll explain in detail once the subs are out. That way you won&#039;t get spoiled and can look forward to it. The ep 2 is good, but it could have been much better. That&#039;s my stance.

Personnaly , I think Aria was made in the anime and cut in that way just to help the new comers with SAO to understand more about Kirito and not to give the whole SS scenario. 	[[User:Eldivah|Eldivah]] 16:05, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hmm. Come to think of it. That might be it. I mean there was a slight conflict between the stories of the Aria SS and the main story aka volume 1. See a few sections above if you want to know/be spoiled. I&#039;ll explain after the sub is out, but if you take into account what was needed to be done to fix that discrepancy then. Yes, I see. If it&#039;s that reason then it&#039;s alright somewhat, I guess. But there are a few parts that didn&#039;t need to be removed even if that were the case. Still, I&#039;m warming up to the ep 2 now. I suppose time heals all wounds isn&#039;t an exaggeration after all.

Wow, that was something else, yes, content was thrown out, Diabel was not as bad as he was in the novel, and Kirito was awesome, but mainly when he was berating the other beta testers, that laugh, wonderful, that was awesome, Egil is cool, I could very easily see the foundation that they put for the future, and finally, holy crap, they are jumping straight to Red-Nosed Reindeer? That is a massive jump. And poor Argo, completely cast aside. [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] - [[User_talk:Draeke|Talk]] - 17:38, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
See. And besides, Red nosed reindeer was next chronologically. I mean Rondo and Crescendo aren&#039;t completely published yet. Well there&#039;s not much in Reindeer so let&#039;s hope they don&#039;t cut things out this time. At least cutting down Kirito and Asuna&#039;s time in Aria serves to address the problem I mentioned in [[Talk:Sword_Art_Online#It&#039;s weird]]. But why&#039;d they cut down the whole plot Diabel cooked up along with Argo&#039;s scenes? I wanted to see Kiriemon at least.

&lt;br /&gt;
I agree completely, but I also thoroughly enjoyed that episode. Aria did have a really deep story, and they just brushed over it. Oh well, still good, lets hope that they don&#039;t just kill everyone off in the Black Cats of the Full Moon immediately, and keep them around for at least one episode before they die.

&lt;br /&gt;
I think that&#039;s pretty simple , letting the plot of Diabel and Argo must introduce a friend character to the main one , but never use him again , that&#039;s a big problem for the public, next , the plot of Diabel about the Anneal Blade will just drag a lot of questions if they don&#039;t add the whole story about the quest to obtain it , explain the whole thing about the Beta-Test , why Diabel knows of Kirito etc , and then that will be 5 episodes of things unrelated to the main plot or to Kirito&#039;s mental state and settings [[User:Eldivah|Eldivah]] 17:59, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
That might be pretty hard to handle a perspective drawing with a cloak ,how to put it , if she was just wearing a normal outfit or if the rapier was outside the cloak , we won&#039;t have this strange feeling , but , they had to draw it like the rapier comming across the cloak and this ended by having the impression of the rapier being stabbed into Asuna instead.

&amp;quot;Red-Nosed Reindeer&amp;quot; will get only 1 ep and after thatcomes &amp;quot;The Black Swordsman&amp;quot; with one ep, too. [[User:BlackP|BlackP]] 19:09, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Umm, okay, where did you learn about this? And if so, then how the heck do they compress Red-Nosed Reindeer into one episode, I could see that stretch three or four episodes. [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] - [[User_talk:Draeke|Talk]] - 19:16, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I couldn&#039;t, if they did ALL of Aria (granted they took some stuff out) in one episode then doing the Red-Nosed Reindeer is more than doable in one episode. I wonder tho if they will do the Black Cats portion and the revival portion separate or together, since they could do it as a current event or as a flashback. That said since it seems they are going with one episode for everything like the Murder Case in episode 5 and Sicilia story in episode 4, then its likely they are gonna use the second half for ALO, which all things considering isn&#039;t that bad. I wouldn&#039;t want a full series for ALO (considering its the worst arc imo) and the ending is more conclusive then the end of the Aincard arc.

Tag my name? In any case i got my information from episode titles, i was told this from a friend but i have no reason to doubt it as i knew the episode 3 title was Red-Nosed Reindeer since before episode 1, episode 4 is supposedly Black Swordsman and such and such. As for the timeline, the anime is simply going chronologically based of the novels events, since after all considering the way volume 1 and 2 are its best to do it chronologically, i&#039;m just curious as to how they are going to use flashbacks as they could see animate &amp;quot;First Day&amp;quot; but as a flashback.

I copied his user data as well as the post time/date from history and added it. And duh, there is a high chance of volume 2 stories&#039; episode conversions being named after their chapters.

Man, they had to change so much in the second episode. I think it would have been much better if they used the actual ending of Aria, and actually show Kirito in the second floor during the sunset and all that.[[User:Jasou|Jasou]] 12:10, 15 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

:I um... watched the first episode of SAO anime, and then I suddenly flung myself to read all the translated LN for SAO... and just finished reading everything except for volume 10 (untranslated), some of the lower sidestories, and material editions...&lt;br /&gt;

== Adding Reference? ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While I was translating SAO into Vietnamese version, I happened to find out that the name of Klein&#039;s guild has a meaning behind it (it actually refers to a way of commanding army of Takeda Shingen), so I wanna add a specific reference for it (I get this info from a book, and haven&#039;t found any website mention it, so I guess I&#039;ll just write it down). But do I need a permission to do that? And if I do, where can I get it? I have also checked the RAW to make sure Kanjis are correct anw.

&lt;br /&gt;
Is anyone here planning to work on Progressive Vol 1? I recently got my ordered copy, and as expected it covers from Aria to Rondo, so I understand if there&#039;s a lack of incentive to translate it considering that the Aria SS has already been translated here and Pryun is still translating Rondo. However, while the Progressive chapters seem to stick pretty close to the original web versions, there are still clear differences, as evidenced by how Aria in Progressive is divided into 15 parts instead of the 20 in web version and Rondo has 14 instead of 40. (Rondo is still about 300 pages long though, so I&#039;m not sure if the author just reorganized it or not.) I was just wondering how the issue was going to be dealt with.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Also, if there are plans to eventually work on Progressive, could I add a sub-section for it on the main page and upload the illustrations I scanned from vol 1? (Admittedly, they&#039;re not the best quality, but I think they&#039;re more than good enough until someone is able to provide a better version.) --[[User:Eternal Dreamer|Eternal Dreamer]] ([[User talk:Eternal Dreamer|talk]]) 21:39, 19 October 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::I&#039;m sure at least 2 translators in SAO project are waiting for the raw of Progressive volume 1 to show up so they can start working on it. But there&#039;s no raw available yet after ten days, when Index NT5, which released on the same day as SAOP1 had its raw available 3 days after the release. At this point, I think the chance to see the proper raw of SAOP1 is pretty slim.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::I personally avoided checking illustration page of the volume I haven&#039;t read, as it tends to be spoilery, but you&#039;re free to create and upload the images if the quality is good enough.

== Name Pronunciation ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Can you guys add a page for character name&#039;s pronunciation ? It&#039;s hard to talk to others while each got his/her own way of speaking names :P&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
P.S: by the way, please make a wider range of question for page-editing. There&#039;s always 1 question whenever I look at it. -Anon&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Well there is the: [[Sword Art Online:Names and Terminology Guideline]]. I suppose we could add ogg files for pronunciation like wikipedia does. I&#039;ll work on it. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  13:50, 18 June 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::You can do it the IPA way, like this: London /ˈlʌndən/ -Anon&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::That won&#039;t be completely accurate. English and Japanese have different ways to pronouncing certain sounds like T, D, etc. Furthermore, few people know the phonetic alphabet in it&#039;s entirety and certainly not those with English as second alphabet. Better to sound it out for them. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  08:03, 19 June 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::So anyone who is great at speaking japanese and a good voice, please volunteer to be the pronouncer. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  08:07, 19 June 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Most names should be straightforward in pronunciation, I assume the names with issues are Lyfa and Sinon? In that case:&lt;br /&gt;
* Lyfa - Ree-fa in JP version, but English changed R to L so Lee-fa is acceptable, just not Lai-fa.&lt;br /&gt;
* Sinon - Shi-non, just like her real name Shino.&lt;br /&gt;
* Eugeo - Yoo-gee-o.&lt;br /&gt;
-- [[User:BeginnerXP|BeginnerXP]] - [[User_talk:BeginnerXP|Talk]] 01:38, 20 June 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Alternately, for whatever name you have no idea how to pronounce, go to the terminology page, copy the jp name you see, put it into google, then ask it to sound it out for you(somewhere at the bottom right corner). That&#039;s the least complicated way, since JP pronunciation is quite simple/fixed. --[[User:Pryun|Pryun]] - [[User_talk:Pryun|Talk]] 05:13, 20 June 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

I&#039;m going to point this out here and hopefully the Admin, Supervisor or one of the translators can clear up my confusion. Volume 4&#039;s story ends with &amp;quot;Chapter 7&amp;quot; and Volume 5&#039;s story begins with &amp;quot;Chapter 7&amp;quot;. Is this officially on purpose, as in the way it&#039;s printed?

== Notes on {Alfheim Online} Norse Mythology References ==&lt;br /&gt;
Hey,As most of you have probably figured out, &amp;quot;Alfheim online&amp;quot; is basically one big reference to Norse Mythology. Therefore, I will put in a few definitions/explanations. Note that the Norse viking raiders used a completely different runic system (that&#039;s the proper term for &amp;quot;alphabet&amp;quot;), so spellings are rough. I have also changed the spellings of some words used to be closer to what I think is proper.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. &amp;quot;Alfheim&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Alf&amp;quot; is a shortened version of &amp;quot;Alfar&amp;quot;, which is the Norse version of elves. Norse elves have characteristics that are very similar to fairies from other mythologies/folktales, therefore &amp;quot;alfar&amp;quot; can be interpreted as either elf or fairy. &amp;quot;heim&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;heimr&amp;quot; means world or realm.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. &amp;quot;Yģģdrasil&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
In Norse mythology, the &amp;quot;Yģģdrasil&amp;quot; (meaning &amp;quot;Odin&#039;s Horse&amp;quot;, &#039;Yģģu&#039; being another name for Odin. pronounce &#039;ģ&#039; with a rasping sound) was a friggin&#039; huge tree at the center of the earth, the roots of which held the whole place together. Curled around the roots of the world tree was this friggin&#039; huge dragon called the &amp;quot;niddhoģ&amp;quot;. The Niddhoģ gnawed at the base of the tree and once it succeded, &amp;quot;Ragnarök&amp;quot; would occur (see below).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3. &amp;quot;Ragnarök&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
Basically, end of the world. World is encased in fire and ice, blah blah blah (wouldn&#039;t the fire just melt the ice then get put out by the resulting water, causing nothing to happen?). After the world is encased in fire and ice, Odin blows the crap out of it. Then he makes a new world tree and a new Earth, and the whole lot happens again.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
4. &amp;quot;Aesir&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;Æsir&lt;br /&gt;
Basically, the norse gods. Means &amp;quot;elevated ones&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5. &amp;quot;Odin&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;Óòin&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
King of the Æsir. Presumably, went to some well to drink, then was told that if he drank from the well, he would lose an eye but gain infinite wisdom. And he did. His job description is basically &amp;quot;Implement Ragnarök and beat the crap out of giants. Repeat.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6. &amp;quot;Thor&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;Þòrr&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
Lightning Æsir. Enjoys blowing up giants. Has a big ol&#039; friggin&#039; hammer called Mjölnir.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7. &amp;quot;Thyrm&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;Þyrm&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
King of the giants. Likes killing stuff, especialy the æsir. He fails at it. Dies a lot and comes back later. Mostly the Norse myths have to do with Odin or Thor beating the tar out of him, again and again and again. This is the kind of stuff Vikings like to hear, I guess.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
8. &amp;quot;Freyja&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;Freyyá&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
Goddess of love, sex, and killing/death (So in other words, the Viking&#039;s favorite mythological character). Also Odin&#039;s wife (Man that sucks, Klein! Better luck next time). Creator and leader of the Valykries (Really pretty women that sweep up dead vikings and take them to Valhalla, a place with infinite food and access to Jötunheimr, so they can pretty much eat, kill, and hang out with pretty women for eternity. Vikings like these people a lot too.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
9. &amp;quot;Jötunheimr&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
Land of the giants, literally. Þyrm and his minions are found here. The æsir and all dead vikings go here to kill giants forever. One of the Vikings&#039; favorite places.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think that sums it up. If there&#039;s anything I forgot that was mentioned somewhere in Alfheim Online, please look it up and edit it in or leave an edit asking for definitions.&lt;br /&gt;
Also sorry for messed up editing causing this post to appear twice. Gomen!&lt;br /&gt;

Lightning Æsir. Enjoys blowing up giants. Has a big ol&#039; friggin&#039; hammer called Mjölnir.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7. &amp;quot;Thyrm&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;Þyrm&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
King of the giants. Likes killing stuff, especialy the æsir. He fails at it. Dies a lot and comes back later. Mostly the Norse myths have to do with Odin or Thor beating the tar out of him, again and again and again. This is the kind of stuff Vikings like to hear, I guess.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
8. &amp;quot;Freyja&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;Freyyá&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
Goddess of love, sex, and killing/death (So in other words, the Viking&#039;s favorite mythological character). Also Odin&#039;s wife (Man that sucks, Klein! Better luck next time). Creator and leader of the Valykries (Really pretty women that sweep up dead vikings and take them to Valhalla, a place with infinite food and access to Jötunheimr, so they can pretty much eat, kill, and hang out with pretty women for eternity. Vikings like these people a lot too.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
9. &amp;quot;Jötunheimr&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
Land of the giants, literally. Þyrm and his minions are found here. The æsir and all dead vikings go here to kill giants forever. One of the Vikings&#039; favorite places.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think that sums it up. If there&#039;s anything I forgot that was mentioned somewhere in Alfheim Online, please look it up and edit it in or leave an edit asking for definitions.&lt;br /&gt;
Also apologies for messed up editing causing this post to appear twice. Gomen!&lt;br /&gt;
:Two minor notes:  1.  The Norse Mythology References section seems to be doubled above/below itself.  2.  Most sections look accurate, but regarding &#039;After the world is encased in fire and ice, Odin blows the crap out of it. Then he makes a new world tree and a new Earth, and the whole lot happens again.&#039; (from section 3, about Ragnarök):  isn&#039;t Odin killed by Fenrir in Ragnarök?  (Before being avenged by his son.)  And wasn&#039;t the Earth made by the frost giants Bergelmir and his wife, out of Ymir&#039;s body?  I unfortunately don&#039;t see where the ideas of cycling Ragnaröks or Odin as an eternal god of creation come from.  -[[User:Multipartite|Multipartite]] ([[User talk:Multipartite|talk]]) 17:27, 14 April 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

== About the alicization character names........ ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I prefer the earlier ones(Ronie, Tizei, Solterina, etc.) than the new ones(Ronye, Tiezé, Soltiliena,etc.) since the former looks more natural, especially of Ronie&#039;s.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
-Anonymous User-&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Well, the current spellings are apparently more accurate in terms of pronunciation. I&#039;ll be honest, when I first read &amp;quot;Ronie&amp;quot;, in my head I heard &amp;quot;Ronny&amp;quot;. As for the &amp;quot;look&amp;quot; of the names, that&#039;s only a side-affect of having read one first, and then looking at the other. That&#039;s pretty subjective.

== Regarding the Web Version section ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I have a question... Isn&#039;t most of what&#039;s within the &amp;quot;Side Stories&amp;quot; section part of the Web version?&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Specificly, [[Sword Art Online:Aria in the Starless Night|Aria in the Starless Night]], [[Sword Art Online:Rondo of the Transient Sword|Rondo of the Transient Sword]], [[Sword Art Online:Sound of Water, Sound of Hammer|Sound of Water, Sound of Hammer]], [[Sword Art Online:Caliber SS|Caliber SS]], [[Sword Art Online:A Spot of Sunshine in the Winter|A Spot of Sunshine in the Winter]], [[Sword Art Online:Cradle of the Moon Chapter 1|Cradle of the Moon]], [[Sword Art Online:There is but one ultimate way|There is but one ultimate way]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So shouldn&#039;t these be included as being part of the &amp;quot;Web Version&amp;quot; section?&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;also, I&#039;m wondering if anyone is actually going to go about translating the web version xD There are a number of exerpts here and there, but not really much... If the problem is getting that actual text, I remember downloading some files of the Alicization arc, even though i understand 0% japanese xD...

== Bullet Lines ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m an editor for the English SAO wiki and recently published 2 new articles for both Bullet Circles and Bullet Lines. However, I had a couple of questions to ask. 1.The terms &amp;quot;Bullet Circle&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;bullet Line&amp;quot; were separate in volume 5, but are more or less merged in volume 6. Is this the case in the original or was this caused by different translators working on the 2 volumes? 2. We&#039;ve had a little dispute over how the sniper advantage actually works. Some of us interpret it as &amp;quot;The Bullet Line does not appear at all for the sniper&#039;s first shot&amp;quot;, while others interpret it as &amp;quot;Players can&#039;t see a sniper&#039;s first Bullet Line because they need to know where to look for it first&amp;quot;. Could you please confirm which of these is true? Thank you --[[User:Gsimenas|Gsimenas]] ([[User talk:Gsimenas|talk]]) 05:42, 19 May 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:I&#039;m not the original translators, but for the first point, I took a look at the source and, yes, there were a few parts where &amp;quot;Bullet Lines&amp;quot; were supposed to have been &amp;quot;Bullet Circles&amp;quot;. I think I&#039;ve corrected all instances, but if you spot more, by all means please post again.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:For the second point, I don&#039;t think even they would be able to sort that out for you - it doesn&#039;t seem like the kind of thing you can clarify by retranslating, if you get what I mean. Personally, I think it&#039;s &amp;quot;The system doesn&#039;t show the target the sniper&#039;s first Bullet Line &#039;&#039;at all&#039;&#039;&amp;quot; rather than &amp;quot;Players can&#039;t see a sniper&#039;s first Bullet Line because they need to know where to look for it first&amp;quot;, and I waved Death Gun&#039;s dodge off as either already knowing where she was because he saw her while using his invisibility cloak, or that &amp;quot;Hypersense&amp;quot; skill (Kirito dodged Death Gun&#039;s own first shot, remember?). Though, this doesn&#039;t really explain Sinon&#039;s own comment about checking through the system, unless it was just a &amp;quot;mind scrambling for answers&amp;quot; thing... -[[User:AKAAkira|Akira]] ([[User talk:AKAAkira|talk]]) 22:44, 23 May 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

::Thank you for clearing that inconsistency out :) . And guess we&#039;ll just have to stick with an assumption on how that system works. Unless the anime gets another sequel and we can get visual proof on whether they can see the Bullet Line or not :D (though even in this case it&#039;s not a 100% guarantee that they will depict the concept in an unambiguous way)--[[User:Gsimenas|Gsimenas]] ([[User talk:Gsimenas|talk]]) 14:57, 29 May 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
As far as I understand, the chapter begins on the 6th of March/3rd Month, however, the graduation contest that is supposed to take place just 2 days later at the end of the chapter it is said to take place &amp;quot;At the end of March—&amp;quot;. Also &amp;quot;Eugeo and I would be taking part in the advancement exams for elite swordsmen next month.&amp;quot;; &amp;quot;That&#039;s because we were the top 12 students during the promotion exam at the end of the month, and our future roles as elite swordsmen trainees were confirmed.&amp;quot; - are these exams supposed to be separate, because I can&#039;t understand how they can say that their positions as elite swordsmen are already guaranteed when the exam is only going to take place later that month? --[[User:Gsimenas|Gsimenas]] ([[User talk:Gsimenas|talk]]) 14:50, 29 May 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

== Something strange on the Android App ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Not 100% sure this is the right place for this, but...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There is something strange going on with this LN series in the Android app. The &#039;Cradle of the Moon&#039; Side Story chapter(s) is listed a total of 6 times under three separate headings of &#039;Side Stories&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Similarly, I have two header listings for &#039;Sword Art Online: Material Editions&#039;, 3 for &#039;Volume 1&#039; (two of which seem to be Progressive, the other just has a chapter called &#039;Enlarge&#039; which doesn&#039;t seem to contain any data) and a total of 5 &#039;Side Stories&#039; headers. The 12 main headers (LNs 1-12) seem to be fine, as do all of the other LNs I have marked as Favourites in the app.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Anyone got any ideas/fixes?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It&#039;s what happens when people play around with how the sections are listed. The old listing persist because the App downloads and stores the information in a cache, but the &#039;new&#039; listing also pop up showing as duplicates. The easiest fix is to purge the volume cache (touch and hold) then refresh the volume. You could even do this to the entire LN listing from your watch list and run an update check to pick up how things are listed now. Oh...also don&#039;t forget to sign your posts. Helps track who is having these problems in case someone on the dev team wants to talk about it. [[User:Unknownadd|Unknownadd]] ([[User talk:Unknownadd|talk]]) 21:35, 15 June 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

:Sorry about not signing, but since I&#039;m not registered here yet I wasn&#039;t sure it would help anyway. ;)&lt;br /&gt;
:Is there somewhere that I can make suggestions for the app? I&#039;ve just used the Options version of &#039;clear novel cache&#039;, since doing it on a volume-by-volume basis didn&#039;t seem to work, and it wiped out EVERYTHING - My favourites, &#039;read&#039; chapters, everything, so now I have to try and remember what I have read and what I haven&#039;t, what I was planning to read, etc... seems a little excessive. ~AerosAtar&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Volume 12+ Translation? ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I don&#039;t want to sound impatient, but has volume 12 been put on hiatus? I remember volume 10 and 11 being translated at a fast and steady pace, but 12 hasn&#039;t even had a word translated for 2 months.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Tap is translating vol 12, You can check it out on his blog.&lt;br /&gt;
Blog&#039;s link is on his profile. He will upload it to baka-tsuki once translation and major editing is completed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

Well, the project is likely to be discontinued soon. However, Volume 13 is being translated by tap (and he&#039;s about half way though, too.) You can read them on his blog, if you wish. They&#039;re not here on Baka-Tsuki, because he usually takes some time to edit and fix up errors, before posting them here.

AFAIK reputation is normal (Spice and Wolf), so 3-4 volumes per year are expected. More information can be found on forum [[User:Xaliuss|Xaliuss]] ([[User talk:Xaliuss|talk]]) 03:23, 17 October 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

== Raious Antinous ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I doubt anyone will argue with the conjecture that the eldest son of a 3rd class noble family, Raious Antinous, is a huge dick.&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;d like to point out the significance of his second name, Antinous.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For those of you who&#039;ve read the Oddysey, by Homer (being the sequel to the Iliad), you will understand immediately what I&#039;m talking about.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the Odyssey, Antinous is a character who is attempting to secure Odysseus&#039; bride, Penelope, for himself. Odysseus is assumed to be dead at this time. Antinous is the son of a high-ranking noble who is attempting to marry Penelope, and it is insinuated that, given the chance, he would attempt to rape her. He gets duly killed by Odysseus, who is understandably angry. Actually Odysseus kills him along with several HUNDRED other suitors (BADASS ALERT). ANNNNYways...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Anyone else notice the similarity? Cause i do.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Number of volumes ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;ve noticed over the past week that updaters can&#039;t agree on how many volumes:  Some people update it to 13 and then someone comes in behind them and reverses the update... I&#039;ve seen this happen at least three times this month so far.  I don&#039;t want to start an update war or anything, but I think there ARE 13 volumes now in the main series (not even counting the SAO Progressive): there are certainly 13 volumes listed in section 5... or are we not counting volume 13 since it&#039;s release date is next month?  [[User:Zehd|Zehd]] ([[User talk:Zehd|talk]]) 23:48, 11 July 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think number of currently published volumes must be present, and it will be updated after release date. Looking at this number any user can estimate length of the series and translation progress, other numbers can be misleading.

Bloody Yen Press. Now I&#039;ll never read the ending. If they finish translation at all, it will take about 3-4 or so years before they catch up with B-T...

I&#039;ve noticed more of the the first couple of volumes have disappeared in advance of the licensed volume release, and its reached the point of the first 6 volumes having been taken down. Is there some kind of pattern to this, like a schedule for which volumes are removed when?

Inside it are numerous cities, small towns and villages, forests, grasslands, and lakes. One stairway connects each floor to the previous and succeeding floor, and all of them are in dangerous labyrinth zones where monsters wander about. Players in this world rely on one weapon as they run past them, find the way to the upper floors, and take down strong guardian monsters, single-mindedly aiming for the top of the castle. Aside from battling with monsters, there are many scopes of play from manufacturing like smithing, leathercraft and sewing, to hunting and cuisine, to music. This is not merely adventuring in a vast field, [Life] is literally possible here.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;quot;Aincrad&amp;quot; is the world set as the stage for &amp;quot;Sword Art Online&amp;quot;, declared as the world&#039;s first in the VRMMO game genre.&lt;br /&gt;

:We should probably put the illustration translations in the discussion pages of the novel images, and perhaps just put a link here to them as a reminder.&lt;br /&gt;
::That was the idea. Or to be precise I would add the translations to the image pages in the image discription. And for those, where it work in the illustration pages, too. I did add they here only to show which images I meant --[[User:Darklor|Darklor]] 07:24, 8 February 2010 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

Quick comment on your translation for ALO. While I haven&#039;t seen any official English translation for its name, the Japanese Wikipedia calls it Alfheim Online. Personally, I agree with it since it follows the Mythology theme, with Álfar meaning elves in Norse Mythology, making Alfheim mean Elves&#039; (Alf) Home (Heim). The reason I think it follows the Mythology theme is that I believe Yggdrasil makes an appearance (I couldn&#039;t find where I read this, and I have bad memory at best, so possibly wrong), Kirito&#039;s class becomes a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spriggan Spriggan], Lyfa (or whatever it ends up being) is a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sylph Sylph], and Yui is a Navigation Pixie&amp;lt;!--Quite the specific race if you ask me--&amp;gt;. Hope this helps. ~EnigmaticRepose&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:In the Japanese raws of volume 3 (page 61), the name is written in English: &amp;quot;ALfheim Online&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;

Image:Sword Art Online Vol 07 -008.jpg|OSS &amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;Its formal name is 《Original Sword Skills》. An improved version of the 《Sword Skills》 system of the now defunct Sword Art Online, implemented in 《Alfheim Online》. Each weapon has its own 《Skill Tree》. Brought forth drastic change to 《ALO》 which was previously dominated by long-range 《Magic》.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;Different from the 《Sword Skills》 in 《SAO》, OSS are not skills predefined by the system but rather skills that can be invented and registered by the player. However, in order to register such skills, players are required to perform them &amp;quot;without system support at a speed normally impossible without system assist&amp;quot;. This somewhat contradictory strict requirement is the main reason why there&#039;s only few players who posses OSS.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;The OSS system supports a function known as 《Sword Skill Inheritance》. Players who successfully register an OSS are able to pass down a single-use 《Skill Manual》 to other players. Because the development of an OSS is extremely difficult, 《Skill Manuals》 for OSS, especially those that contain over-5-hits special moves, are currently the most expensive items in ALO.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

:Regarding the &amp;quot;color tweak&amp;quot;, I don&#039;t think it was necessary, the colors look out of place.

:::Dude, I said I understand &#039;&#039;&#039;verbal&#039;&#039;&#039; japanese, not written. For written I need to run the text through a romanjifier like google translate&#039;s phonetic reader. But I can&#039;t do that with pictures now, can I? Anyways thanks for the j-text. I just put it through and found that it was &amp;quot;mada mada&amp;quot;.

::I meant that I would have expected someone familiar with Japanese to recognize the phrase from one of its common translations and, based off the context, realize there might be a more appropriate choice in a similar way to how Pryun was thinking.  This would be independent of knowing what the original text was.  Being able to recognize this sort of thing can really improve your effectiveness as an editor as you would be better able to let the translators know of a possible mistake.

:::How could I when I need to romanjify in order to understand? I guess you overestimated my abilities. The phrase fit the circumstances, even if it was wrong. And whenever I sense a mistake I immediately ask for the j-text, run it through google translate, check both the romanji and the translation (Just checking the translation isn&#039;t good enough but the romanji helps a lot), examine the sentence in both languages and then give suggestions. I&#039;ve helped translators a lot via this method. I do intend to learn written Japanese as well. But pretty soon I&#039;ll probably be starting my Masters. So it&#039;ll have to be delayed.

&lt;br /&gt;
:If you read manga, especially those shounen manga, all kanji will have hirakana characters (furigana) telling readers how it&#039;s read, it helps a lot to use that reading to look up the kanji, rather than tracking the kanji via radicals or stroke counts. Learning kanji properly would require a large amount of time (years), so it&#039;s entirely down to each person&#039;s determination. But kana is simple enough like A-B-C, so it should be a good foundation to have for anyone who enjoys Japanese media. -- [[User:BeginnerXP|BeginnerXP]] - [[User_talk:BeginnerXP|Talk]] 10:44, 7 August 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

Judging by everything, it should be the scene in Interlude II, where Kirito hands the bag of pies to Ronie, and tells her to share it with her class mates. If you can&#039;t translate the whole thing, try translating bits and pieces to get an idea of where in the text this is.

Besides, considering the amount of work done during scanlation, other than text translation (ie: cleaning, leveling, cloning, etc) I don&#039;t think it&#039;s unfair especially since I&#039;m not taking the credit for the translation, only the editing and photoshopping. Anyways, Teh Ping said this in the history comments: &#039;&#039;Note, this is done by a person called Melannis. I&#039;m really grateful for the help here. (received this through twitter lol)&#039;&#039;, therefore it&#039;s approved by him and that&#039;s good enough for me. But if a proper namer change is decided (forums SAO Names and terminology discussion) then I&#039;ll edit it accordingly as soon as I&#039;m informed of it. I have the PSDs after all so it&#039;ll be a snap. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  13:22, 11 October 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

::::@Zero2001: At first, I wanted to just ignore this double offensive actions from you (one is taking my translation and change the terms without permission, second is asking in Ping&#039;s talk page if there is any error in my translation, as if you picked up something from the street and asked if it&#039;s genuine). But I guess I should make it clear as you quote what I said regarding to my image translations in volume 8. I don&#039;t mind at all if you use my translation and I also don&#039;t mind for grammar corrections that might be needed, but I will never allow anyone to mess with the terms/names I use. Since it&#039;s already this late, I won&#039;t ask you to take the image down or anything, just please be careful next time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::@Drowzycow: Teiza is sure completely wrong, while Tize works, but I think many would read it as &amp;quot;Taiz&amp;quot;, that&#039;s why I use Tizay, less confusion this way. Please look [http://dreadfuldecoding.blogspot.com/p/pronunciation-guide.html here] for audio samples on how to pronounce both girl names in Interlude II.

::::Ah sorry. I just matched the terms to the text translation.

Plenty of times in the past it&#039;s happened that after I photoshopped the pics, then and &#039;&#039;only then&#039;&#039; people started pointing out the mistakes. So that&#039;s why I asked. You should know me well enough BeginnerXP, I hold no ill will in such matters. My apologies. I&#039;ll be more careful next time.

Google translate types ティゼー phonetically as Tizē therefore Tizei would be closer in my opinion. Also, Tizay is short form of &amp;quot;It is ay&amp;quot; (ie: Acting as a confirmation to someone Else&#039;s question.)

==== Volume 11 ====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

It tastes better than the stuff at the Prancing Deer Inn, Ronye, Tiese.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;A young boy lost within the mysterious «Undersworld». In order to escape from here, he is searching for a «System Console».&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Ronye: Wah, really?!&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;A «Valet Trainee» that aims to become an «Integrity Knight» and serves as Kirito&#039;s assistant.&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Tiese: Erm, we were the ones who made it, so whether it fits your tastes or not...&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;A «Valet Trainee» that aims to become an «Integrity Knight» and serves as Eugeo&#039;s assistant.&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Eugeo: Kirito, if you already helped out that much, stop trying to ditch us!&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;The first inhabitant Kirito met in this world. Became «Elite Swordsman Trainee» at «North Centoria Master Swords Academy» with Kirito.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
Image:Sword Art Online Vol 11 - 004-005.jpg|Ronye: No... Help... Help, Eugeo-senpai! Eugeo-senpai - !&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Tiese: N-no...no...NO...!&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Eugeo: Uh...gu...ooh...! I, I...!&lt;br /&gt;
Image:Sword Art Online Vol 11 - 006-007.jpg|Eugeo: ...Alice...? Is that you...? Are you...Alice...?&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Alice: I am the Overseer of Centoria, an Integrity Knight of the Axiom Church - Alice Synthesis Thirty.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;An «Integrity Knight» who protects order in the «Human World».&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
Image:Sword Art Online Vol 11 - 008.jpg|&#039;&#039;&#039;«North Centoria Master Sword Academy and Integrity Knights»&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Located in the center of the Underworld’s «Human World» is the largest city of the Human World, the «Capital Centoria». It is enclosed within a perfect circular rampart with a diameter of ten kilol, and possesses a population of over twenty thousand. The solid walls in the shape of an X divide the circular city into four equal parts, and these separating walls are called the «Eternal Wall». «North Centoria», «East Centoria», «South Centoria», and «West Centoria» are what the divided municipalities are called; they are the capitals of the four empires which divide and rule over the vast Human World.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;In the middle of the «Capital» is the pure white grand tower that lies at the heart of the Human World, the Axiom Church’s «Central Cathedral». The tower is so tall its zenith is hazy and can&#039;t be seen, and the square grounds of the church are enclosed by a high wall, so it is impossible to see what lies inside. The «Eternal Wall» that divides the city of Centoria starts from the Cathedral, and stretches outward in four directions. Within the highest ruling system «Axion Church» there are officers known as «Integrity Knights», and these knights that maintain the order of the world are the Sacred Task that all the swordsmen of the world aspire to.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;If one passes the entrance exam of the swordsmen training institution «North Centoria Master Sword Academy» in order to aim for the rank of «Integrity Knight», they become a «Beginner Trainee Swordsman» in public. The Trainees train themselves diligently over the period of one year, and at the end of every academy year, they aim for becoming swordsmen of even higher rank during the promotion exam. The final objective of the academy students is to participate in the «Northern Empire Swordsmanship Tournament». Kirito and Eugeo are aiming to win the competition even higher than that, the «Four Empires Unity Tournament» that is the highest swordsmanship tournament in the Human World, where the winners are appointed as honorable «Integrity Knights».&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Notes:&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;lt;s&amp;gt;Not 100% sure on Kirito&#039;s comment, that&#039;s the best I could guess&lt;br /&gt;
*Reason for changing Ronie&#039;s first comment&#039;s comma to exclamation point was since &amp;quot;Wow, really?&amp;quot; seems to be used with too much sarcasm too often these days&lt;br /&gt;
*I&#039;m pretty sure there&#039;s a more eloquent way for Teiza to hint the gesture, but it&#039;s evading me at the moment&lt;br /&gt;
*Since 打ち can mean both &amp;quot;hit&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;reach&amp;quot;, a possible but slightly less likely different interpretation is: &amp;quot;Kirito, if it turns out that my fist can reach you, you don&#039;t have to run away, okay?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
**I peeked at what PROzess translated so far and...well, one word: context. Rather facepalm-worthy. As such, changed Eugeo&#039;s quote. But, Teiza&#039;s quote is somewhat confusing. Unless it&#039;s a case of &#039;&#039;extremely&#039;&#039; liberal context usage, I don&#039;t think she even uses that particular quote in-story. Can someone correct me?&amp;lt;/s&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
***Ronye says that bit, which explains why I didn&#039;t find &#039;&#039;Tiese&#039;&#039; it. And yup, another botched trans.&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;lt;s&amp;gt;Intros of the first pic are the same as the previous volume, except for the second half of Eugeo&#039;s&amp;lt;/s&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
*Also, not quite sure if it&#039;s &amp;quot;Elite Swordsman Trainee&amp;quot; or just &amp;quot;Elite Swordsman&amp;quot; - but then again, previous volumes had them interchanged, so maybe it doesn&#039;t matter?&lt;br /&gt;
*If anyone wants to dispute my interpretations, here&#039;s a quick dump of all kanji used in the first three pics: 君跳鹿亭優劣味私作口合打解今逃修剣学院上級士助僕君人界秩序守市域統括公理教会&lt;br /&gt;

As soon as these are fully translated I will photoshop them.

:As this wiki lacks a flashy quote template, I&#039;ll just make do with pointing out my fifth bullet point in the notes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:On the other hand, I still suggest waiting until at least one other pair of eyes goes over them before actually using the translations.

I know the character descriptions for Kirito, Ronie and Teiza are already technically done in Vol 10, but I thought I&#039;d put up my own translation of them in case anyone wants to use it.

&lt;br /&gt;
:Yes, it should be. I didn&#039;t realize it was a name initially, which was why I was so confused. In volume 10 it was translated as &amp;quot;Jumping Deer Inn&amp;quot;, so I&#039;ll go with that for now. -[[User:AKAAkira|Akira]] ([[User talk:AKAAkira|talk]]) 17:14, 24 December 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

:I don&#039;t know a thing about Japanese, but looking at the Raw images for the last image in both this vol and from vol 10, there&#039;s only one difference in regards to the location texts..

:My stubbornness made me look up the character XD... For some reason, Reki renamed the wall from 不屈の壁 (Indomitable Wall) to 不朽の壁 (Timeless Wall (according to Google Translate))...

&amp;lt;gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Image:Sword Art Online Vol 12 - 002-003.jpg|Kirito: Eugeo, I&#039;ll stop the first attack somehow, so it&#039;s your job to get a strike in.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;A young boy lost within the mysterious «Virtual World», Underworld. In order to escape, he is searching for a «System Console».&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Eugeo: —Got it.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;The first inhabitant Kirito met in this world. Became «Elite Swordsman Trainee» at «North Centoria Master Swords Academy» with Kirito.&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Deusolbert Synthesis Seven: To bathe in the fires of this «Flame Bow» should have meant to become purified for two years. I see, it appears you truly possess the skills Knight Eldrie Thirty-one argued you had, despite being criminals.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;An Integrity Knight who uses the «Flame Bow».&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

Image:Sword Art Online Vol 12 - 008.jpg|&#039;&#039;&#039;Central Cathedral&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Located at the middle of Underworld&#039;s «Human World» is its greatest city, «Capital Centoria». At the core of «Capital», the heart of the Human World itself, there exists the pure white superstructure, «Central Cathedral». The tower&#039;s zenith is at a height that peters out into obscurity, and the church&#039;s square grounds are surrounded by high walls; peeking inside is utterly impossible. The supreme body «Axiom Church», governing the Human World from «Central Cathedral», maintain peacekeepers named «Integrity Knights», and these knights that protect the order of the world are what every Trainee Swordsmen in the world yearn to become.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;The Cathedral is built with a hundred floors in all, and the top floor contains a room for the High Priestess.　The middle floors host monks, priests, and so on, and those who conduct the business necessary for the Axiom Church to rule the Human World also live there. On the third floor is an armory, but the fiftieth floor has a utility called «The Great Hall of the Spirit World&#039;s Light»&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Notes:&lt;br /&gt;
*Kirito &amp;amp; Eugeo&#039;s descs borrowed and modified from Eternal Dreamer&#039;s descs from last volume.&lt;br /&gt;
*Not entirely sure Deusolbert&#039;s referring to himself or his bow.&lt;br /&gt;
*熾 turned up &amp;quot;Seraphim&amp;quot; in Google Translate. No idea what&#039;s up with that.&lt;br /&gt;
**熾焰 in Chink can mean something along the lines of &amp;quot;Blazing&amp;quot;. Also, Sky Piercing Sword sounds better than Heaven Piercing Sword to me.&lt;br /&gt;
***Eeh, &amp;quot;Heaven&amp;quot; sounds more flashy to me, when it&#039;s &amp;quot;Heaven Piercing&amp;quot; vs &amp;quot;Sky Piercing&amp;quot;...unless it&#039;s maybe something like &amp;quot;Skysplitter&amp;quot;. -[[User:AKAAkira|Akira]] ([[User talk:AKAAkira|talk]]) 19:45, 3 May 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
*実 has way too many different positive trait translations. &amp;quot;Sincerity&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;truth&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;fidelity&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;faith&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;confidence&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;devotion&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;trust&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;reliance&amp;quot;... I think &amp;quot;purity&amp;quot; works best here, though.&lt;br /&gt;
**From context, it seems like it&#039;s been two years since he last used the bow&#039;s true ability. The bow becomes engulfed in flames when it&#039;s Enhance Armament is activated.&lt;br /&gt;
*I &#039;&#039;think&#039;&#039; いか in this case is supposed to be the 以下 kind. I think.&lt;br /&gt;
*剣筋 stumped me. Pretty sure it&#039;s supposed to be a compound word, but no idea what it entails. I just left it at &amp;quot;sword&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
*&amp;quot;Superstructure&amp;quot; there isn&#039;t intrinsically correct, but it definitely sounds good - better than &amp;quot;great tower&amp;quot; (which I&#039;m pretty sure is the original meaning) and more accurate than &amp;quot;skyscraper&amp;quot; (especially with the modern image that word draws upon).&lt;br /&gt;
*I&#039;m pretty sure 霞んで見えない basically says &amp;quot;so hazy it can&#039;t be seen&amp;quot;, but that was kinda hard to conform into a &amp;quot;the tower&#039;s zenith is at a height&amp;quot; sentence structure, and I thought &amp;quot;obscurity&amp;quot; covers both the &amp;quot;indistinct&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;lack of ability to see&amp;quot; bases well enough anyway.&lt;br /&gt;
*I think this のぞき　is the 覗き kind?&lt;br /&gt;
*Strictly speaking, 憧れの天職 translates more as &amp;quot;yearn to take as their calling&amp;quot;, but...&amp;quot;yearn to become&amp;quot; is virtually the same meaning.&lt;br /&gt;
*Not entirely sure about 先活. 先 is along the lines of &amp;quot;former&amp;quot; and 活 is basically &amp;quot;lives&amp;quot;...but apparently 活　is a synonym for 生, and 先生 is &#039;&#039;sensei&#039;&#039;. For now, went with the former, since that makes more sense in context.&lt;br /&gt;

==Editor==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
OK some of you might notice that this thing has an editor all of a sudden. I&#039;ve done this &#039;without&#039; a supervisor..... I hope that&#039;s OK.... O.o&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Feel free to keep editing if you see something wrong though, we&#039;re only two pairs of eyes and it&#039;s highly probable that we&#039;d miss something. Also we aren&#039;t perfect.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::This is also not going to affect the speed in any way (well except for only today I think... since y&#039;know it&#039;s going to be first &#039;gap&#039; but it&#039;ll be back to normal. Actually you guys won&#039;t even notice).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::You&#039;re never be going to be waiting for too long.... well unless I&#039;m translating slowly. If the editor hasn&#039;t put the next chap up in two days I&#039;ll put mine up first. The editor can chance it with his (or her???? Now I think about it I don&#039;t know O.O) version. But I don&#039;t think that that&#039;s going to happen.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

Far from perfect. We&#039;re both ESL (English as Second Language) people after all. The good news is that I can do Chinese-English proofreading/editing, the bad news is that tenses are a weakness for me. I&#039;m trying to keep an eye out on other people&#039;s edits and track what kind of things I miss, but if you notice a particular pattern that I fault in please don&#039;t hesitate to fix and/or drop me a note. Also, having more editors is usually a good thing. -- Aorii&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:I should have asked before putting up my rather literal translation up, but is that okay? It has already be reverted though. &lt;br /&gt;
As when I went through the japanese text, some stuff was missing. &lt;br /&gt;
By the way, the tense used is past tense, right? Tenses should be same throughout the novel. -KuroiHikari&lt;br /&gt;

Hello, i was just wondering if you guys would accept another editor here. I have read almost all 9 volumes, and there are always many, MANY grammatical errors and weird literal translations in the text. The translation itself is solid, but it is just really awkward to read. I do really appreciate the work you guys put into this, and I&#039;m not trying to demean or anything, but i think i could contribute greatly to the editing of this novel. I am very proficient in english, and I could probably edit a chapter in 2-3 days, or faster depending on the length of the chapter. If you&#039;ll accept me, you could send me an unedited text from something to test my skills if required. I would be happy to lend a hand to such a great project.

:Some translations are literal for a reason. Excessive &#039;&#039;&#039;Englishification&#039;&#039;&#039; ruins the original meaning and funniness. Just be careful.

So, I started reading the novels after having watched the anime. I really like it and I appreciate the work, but I think there&#039;s a lot that I could offer as an editor. Besides odd sentence structure, I&#039;ve seen a few misspellings. I know it says on the main page to contact a supervisor if you want to join the project, but I&#039;m not sure how to go about doing that. If someone could help me out, I would appreciate it. --[[User:nVitius|nVitius]] 3:00, 5 January 2013 PST&lt;br /&gt;

:Supervisor for SAO is Sharramon. Contact via [[User talk:Sharramon]], or PM on the forums, I think. That&#039;s only if you want to be a registered Editor, though.

==This is REALLY GOOD!!!!==&lt;br /&gt;
I really like this. When I first started reading it sounded like just another virtual reality/MMORPG anime... thing, but now, it looks really cool!&lt;br /&gt;
Please Give us chapter four soon!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:I agree with this fellows statement as well. It sounded dumb at first, but the character&#039;s feel far more realistic than I would have thought. I hope this gets alot of attention. Good luck Sharramon!&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
:::Thank you all ^^ I&#039;ve done chap four now! But it&#039;s more of a run through of how the situation was like in Aincrad. The story starts properly from chapter five. I&#039;ll try to translate that as quick as possible too!&lt;br /&gt;
::::I love you&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::::Thanks for the update&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is good! I like the development in chapter 5. Will wait until next update! I look forward to the next chapter, from what I see in the illustration there will be some romance...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Dammit now I want chapter 6... Please give it to us soon!!! PLEASE!!!! And thank you once again for translating this!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::This overwhelming pressure! XD I&#039;m workin&#039; on it! I&#039;ll try and get it up soon but the soonest SHOULD be Thursday but we&#039;ll see!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::Thank you very much for your effort! ^^ Awaiting next update eagerly... You update surprisingly fast^^. Please do not take this as a pressure but as encouragement^^&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is turning into a pretty good response column, and for a nifty reason; SAO is pretty kick ass. All our thanks go out to you, Sharramon, keep up the good work! ps BTW you have the fastest chapter updates I&#039;ve seen in awhile! and as the previous comment mentioned, that isn&#039;t some weird pressure build up, its a compliment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:I agree this is really good, thanks for the translations&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:BTW you have the fastest chapter updates I&#039;ve seen in awhile!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::That&#039;s most probably because this light novel has the shortest chapters that you&#039;ve seen in a while! :D And chap 6 done! Hell yeah!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::Thanks for chapter 6. This is a really good light novel. Can&#039;t wait for the next chapters. I would like to know though when you get volume 2 whether Kirito stays with Asuna after volume 1 or not. Because looking at the covers for volumes 2 and 3 it seems he teams up with other girls.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::::He does stay with her. Book two&#039;s about the past and the third book is about saving her from a game or something by what I gather...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::::Thanks for the info. I was agonizing over the thought that she might have died and he moved on to party with another player.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::::::I shouldn&#039;t say so much! I&#039;m spoiling people!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Seeing the update section.... I&#039;ve realized that I&#039;ve done more than a chap every two days WITHOUT the prologue O.O.....&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:That&#039;s why you&#039;re Sharramon-sama :) thanks for the great releases xD&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::damn! this is like reading Naruto. No, not the storyline, but on the updates... (yours is of course, much faster than the weekly updates) but nonetheless, the suspense, the waiting... it feels the same. Anyway, thank you for the fast updates! SPOILERS!!!!! nuooohh!!!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::oh shit now I&#039;m going to this page regularly just to see if there is any updates..&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
don&#039;t understand third volume images ç.ç aren&#039;t they supposed to have their true form? so why there are non.humans? waiting fro spoileeeers XD&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:You will understand once the translation gets that far. It&#039;s not fun being spoiled. Because you just keep wanting to know more.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You are awesome and so is this book! I know this is a minor point, but semicolons are meant to separate two closely related things that could be sentences by themselves, like the first line of the synopsis. For parts like &amp;quot;...floating castle, &#039;Aincrad&#039;; he distinguished...&amp;quot;, it should really be commas on both sides of Aincrad.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Wooo, I left this for a while and its already this much already XD YAY! Again and again, thank you so much, Sharramon-sama XD&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::Thanks for chapter 14! Too bad there isn&#039;t a picture of Kirito in his KoB uniform =(&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::at first, I thought that SAO is just a .hack&amp;gt;&amp;lt;druaga&amp;gt;&amp;lt;yureka look-a-like... I was wrong. seriously... I&#039;m jealous of Kirito ;_; Sharramon-kakka, you have my deepest gratitude (for your speed-translating). keep up the good work! XD -randompasserby&lt;br /&gt;

:::::Let&#039;s go with san!... or kun? Hell I&#039;ll take tan!XD&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::::::Nah, I prefer Sharramon-kakka myself. So let&#039;s use that!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You guys are bloating his persona, he&#039;ll be crowning himself emperor of britannia soon at this pace :p&lt;br /&gt;
:He IS the rightful ruler after all, so that would make sense.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::Nah, You guys... Just say it like this &amp;quot;Sharramon-nyoro!!!!&amp;quot; RIGHT?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::How about Shar-tan? He is Paya-tan&#039;s master!&lt;br /&gt;

All hail Britannia! (really couldn&#039;t resist saying that). I wonder what I&#039;d like more... geass or a deathnote?&lt;br /&gt;

:::Started reading the first volume a couple days ago, finished it in one setting. I can&#039;t tell you guys how supremely awesome you are for bringing this book into english. Great Job and many thanks!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Volume Names==&lt;br /&gt;
Both the first and second volumes are called &amp;quot;Aincrad&amp;quot;? Weird...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:That&#039;s how they are named. Take a look at the third colour page for volume 01 and 02. &lt;br /&gt;
{| style=&amp;quot;background:black; color:black&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|They are named after the setting they take place in or so it seems. &lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
::I know that, I was just commenting on how it was odd.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::It all makes sense after reading the descriptions of thos images from volume 3 above.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== So because I couldn&#039;t wait... ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I thought hey why not use ATLAS to translate the raw to at least get a hint of what&#039;s going to happen.&lt;br /&gt;
This did not go well, I mean although the program boasts its amazing accuracy in translating, when I translated the whole novel it didn&#039;t even make sense at all. In fact, a Google online translation did better than the $1,400 program.&lt;br /&gt;
So in conclusion, I decided to patiently wait . . . okay never mind! Please!!!! I can&#039;t wait! where&#039;s the next chapter...&lt;br /&gt;
Thank you for translations, I really appreciate it. I LOVE Sword Art Online!-Jun&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I actually did the same thing, but I could understand like one sentence out of 15, and it also helps if you know what ATLAS translates the names as. I also found a timeline of SAO&#039;s events, and used Rikaichan to skim through it (I probably look for spoilers a little too much on series I really like, and I wasn&#039;t disappointed). Anyway though, I&#039;ve been meaning to ask this: sharramon, are you using official Korean translations or fan translations?&lt;br /&gt;
-Enigma&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Official. I&#039;m translating with the book in my hands.... I&#039;ll have to buy another one. This one&#039;s gotten really dirty XP&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I did as well. Oddly, I can figure out quite much of chapter 5 with it. It hurt my eyes and mind though. It feels like deciphering a code @-@. I decide to quit because the deciphering work reduce the enjoyment in reading it and when I read sharramon-sama&#039;s translation to find out he bits I&#039;m missing, it just won&#039;t as fun since I got to know part of the stroy already.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
@Enigma wait there is Korean translations of Sword Art Online? If there is, where could I get my hands on it? -Jun&lt;br /&gt;
Edit: Oh wait, never mind. I ordered the Korean version through AladdinUS. Can&#039;t wait to read it ^_^ -Jun&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Historic moment ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
SAO is most probably the first book in a while that got first place in daily views within a single month of it being put up in this forum! Thank you all!!! (is burning with a NEED to translate faster XD)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Discussion Forum? ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sup. Kenena here~&lt;br /&gt;
Anyway, is there a forum for SAO (I guess its also ALO too, but whatever)? I dont wanna making a new comment here every time I want to ask something. Link or something would be great.&lt;br /&gt;

== Volume 3 query ==&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Just wondering but could it be that Kirito and Asuna get out of SAO in the 1st volume but Asuna gets kidnapped and put into[Alvheim Online]? And then Kirito goes into the game to save her? Cause this pic looks like Kirito looking at Asuna with the nerve gear:http://www.baka-tsuki.org/project/images/4/43/Sword_Art_Online_Vol_03_-_043.jpg&lt;br /&gt;

I think these two should answer your question.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Well usually to know this kind of things you wait for the volume to be translated don&#039;t you u_u.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Chapter 3/4===&lt;br /&gt;
If the book version has only three chapters, then our translation should have also only three chapters, since the web version is gone and the book version is working as the translation reference... --[[User:Darklor|Darklor]] 14:38, 11 April 2011 (UCT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ive been studying japanese for quite a while now, and can happily sayim slowly progressing,and as such decided to buy the published version that&#039;s still in japanese, two questions now: one, is it in kanji/furigana? and two if not what level of reading should I know to be able to read it effectively&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== What are we going to do with 16.5 in the full text version? ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Eventually Volume 1 will be finished, and we will do what we always do with a finished volume: make a full text!! But we have this chapter 16.5 complicating the situation. Does it go in? Stay out? Make two versions (what I think is would be best)? Something else? Let&#039;s decide what&#039;s going to happen before the volumes done.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I say make a full text with reference to 16.5 but not actual text...or throw in a link to 16.5 with a dire &amp;quot;read at own disgretion&amp;quot; message.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
-Ence&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think we should make 2 versions of it, SFW and NSFW... XD - RandomPasserBy&lt;br /&gt;

:Don&#039;t add it to the full text. I wouldn&#039;t even add it to the volume 1 overview nor to the &amp;quot;forward to..&amp;quot; box, to be honest. 16.5 may be canon, but it is not part of the book. As far as I know, he had this chapter only posted on his back-site without any reference on the front page. [[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] 08:16, 26 February 2010 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
oh yeah, now that you mention it... the book can&#039;t possibly have this chapter...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Considering all the killing, explicit violence that the book has, its already at least 16+ or young adults.. can&#039;t rate something M just because of some cybersex.. -Irec&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wouldn&#039;t it be better to, at least, put a link in the full text to let those who want to read it in the good context be able to read it ?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think a link with a warning would work.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Chapter 16 still links to 16.5... is this intentional or a a side-effect of the nav template? -[[User:Milki|milki]] 03:53, 18 February 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I did not realise there was a chapter 16.5 at all before I came over this... And now that I&#039;ve seen it, I agree that it shouldn&#039;t be put in the full text. What I&#039;m wondering about, though, is if Reki Kawahara really wrote this himself, where it was published and how on earth it came to this site. Oh, and this chapter might be a little hard to notice if you go directly to the full text to read volume 1.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
-&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You know - this is pretty much under the carpet now, but I think this was handled pretty poorly. If 16.5 was not canon, it should have been put under the side stories with an R-18 warning. The author had it on his website with other stories that are up here, so the argument that he didn&#039;t write it is not a very good one. Age appropriate is not good either - R-18 warning as stated, but this site is not an all-ages site to begin with. You have R-18 visual novel projects, Type-Moon&#039;s numerous titles, etc. Some of the posts for removing it were downright confusing: &amp;quot;it left a bad taste in my mouth.&amp;quot; Or &amp;quot;look at what people recognize me for.&amp;quot; I&#039;m sorry, but...what? You didn&#039;t like a chapter, so it should be erased from history? One is going to quit translation of this series because of the &amp;quot;infamy&amp;quot; of it? I know you aren&#039;t in this for public recognition, so why do you care about that? This massive double standard with sexual content is an American value style product that confuses me, but it shouldn&#039;t be influencing what goes up and comes down. We have titles on here that involve graphic descriptions of extreme violence, graphic descriptions of sexual content and innuendo, as well as images of nude people of all ages and violence against them to accompany them. I am really disappointed that management is going down this route, because it&#039;s only a matter of time before other titles get censored or screwed up because of this new standard. - somewhat disappointed and concerned long time reader. --Anonymous&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
In my opinion, this wouldn&#039;t be so much issue if the chapter wasn&#039;t included in volume 1 to begin with, it being up there caused confusion to many readers as they think it&#039;s actually in the published version, I was under that very impression for a while, until I had chance to check the JP book version.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
@anon, it seemed you misunderstood the fact, author really wrote 16.5 and he really put it on his website, but he &#039;&#039;never&#039;&#039; put it along with the web version of Aincrad arc, he made a temporally R-18 section named &#039;Word Gear Reverse&#039; and put 16.5 along with some R-18 stories written by someone else  there. So putting it in volume 1 section is a bad idea, and that&#039;s the reason I was strongly against it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Currently BT has a vague stance about the mature content, there is no rule preventing the mature content to be hosted on wiki, but in forums, the rules clearly stated that posting mature content is not permitted. Maybe the higher ups could discuss about this double standard and come up with a single rules set for both wiki and forums.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On a side note: Why so many complaints about the removal of 16.5 but no one cares that ME1&amp;amp;3 can&#039;t be hosted here? Especially when ME1 is mentioned in both anime &amp;amp; published volumes. Just curious. -- [[User:BeginnerXP|BeginnerXP]] ([[User_talk:BeginnerXP|Talk]]) 08:33, 17 September 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Honestly, I don&#039;t want to shift the blame here nor try to explain myself since I suppose none of you would want to hear me out, so I&#039;ll take responsibility for this. Mature content &#039;&#039;&#039;can&#039;&#039;&#039; be posted on the wiki, but &#039;&#039;&#039;must&#039;&#039;&#039; be labelled with a warning, an R-18 tag. However, this is a different case for the forums, where no one is allowed to post such stuff. If you wonder why there is a different standard for the forums, it&#039;s because the rules for the forums were &#039;copied&#039; from Animesuki...Personally, I don&#039;t believe there&#039;s a need to review it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As for your last paragraph, Beginner, I think you would know the answer...--[[User:Teh Ping|Teh Ping]] ([[User talk:Teh Ping|talk]]) 21:31, 17 September 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I was not trying to shift blame, only point out the issues with said reasoning. I was particularly surprised that Ping said what he did because he always seemed opposed to removing content over anything that didn&#039;t involve content getting licensed or users making unjust profits. Like I said, I just thought it was handled poorly: it should have simply been moved to the side story section and given an R-18 warning. I did not know about other stories being removed, but if they have, I would of course recommend the same action. Removing R-18 content like this just creates needless problems involving content that BT shouldn&#039;t have to deal with. For example, it&#039;s really easy to argue that DxD or Campione should not be hosted because of their content based on this decision (there is not a single warning of R-18 content either.) It is not any of you guys&#039; responsibility to be the parent for children lurking the internet, anyway. It had a warning when I read it last time, and when I came back to re-read SAO, it was gone completely. I do not have any thoughts about the forum; as it is separate from the Wiki, I do not think it is a problem to enforce a different set of rules. On a closing note, please take this less personally, Ping. I am not making you out to be a &amp;quot;bad person&amp;quot; or whatever strange thoughts you&#039;re having. I wanted my thoughts known, but I didn&#039;t want to clog up the forum seeing as it seemed to be a dead issue. While I would want any removed stories to be restored, the management and translators such as yourself are obviously the ones who have the final word. Restricting content because it doesn&#039;t appeal or seem appropriate to (x) audience is a dangerous direction to go for BT though, I feel. Take it easy and thanks for reading. --Anonymous&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
@Beginner, does ME 1 &amp;amp; 3 contain questionable content? All I know is that they are doujins, so might not belong in a LN wiki like BT. Maybe a link might be good instead of no content (which had me assume no work was done on it, up until recently), but thats up to the heads.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
@Teh Ping, I respect you for your decision to take responsibility for the ire of readers on removing the chapter, though I think its not something you have to do (if it was made out of frustration and a wish for the topic to be dropped). Not sure what was the cause of the removal (I&#039;m willing to listen if you have the time to chat),  I cannot help but feel those who complain so much about it, will not or can not see beyond wanting to have everything in one place for their convenience (the internet is a wide place after all). For those stating it affects BT, do realize that even novels on the market are constantly being revised and edited as they are reprinted, to fit the standards of the time. Removing one event which does not have much plot context (unlike the anime...) and is not even part of the published novel is not going to affect anything, and is a weak point for argument. Comparing other LNs to this is even weaker, considering those rarely even reach the level of content shown here (LNs get edited before release as well...) So do consider your argument on insisting you must be able to find it on BT.--[[User:Gabgrave|Gabgrave]] ([[User talk:Gabgrave|talk]]) 01:51, 18 September 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
@Anon, While I don&#039;t read nor watch DxD &amp;amp; Campione, I know for sure that those 2 series are at most R-15 and still can be sold at normal channels in Japan, while 16.5 is in a completely different situation, it&#039;s clearly R-18 and will never be able to sell alongside other light novels even if it&#039;s published. It&#039;s fine if you compared 16.5 to our visual novel projects, but please give a legit example of R-18 light novel hosting here.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
@Gabgrave, ME1&amp;amp;3 are manga written by author himself, their content are clean, and I particularly like ME1 too, you should be able to find them at some online manga reading sites. The reason we can&#039;t hosted them even though they&#039;re both completely scanslated now, is because of its nature, we don&#039;t host manga here unless the script is posted as well (like ME2). The reason is legit and I respect that decision, it&#039;s just funny that the removal of the questionable content caused so much stir within SAO community here, while 2 clean &amp;amp; good legit stories from the same author not being here didn&#039;t raise any question nor request.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
@Beginner, Thanks for the description, I have the links and will be looking them up. I think why people are not commenting is because like me, they see the red links in the page, and assume they are not translated yet. Only if we happen across some comments that make us aware that they do exists already, then we start looking for it.--[[User:Gabgrave|Gabgrave]] ([[User talk:Gabgrave|talk]]) 02:25, 18 September 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

My bad. Mistaken information received. Removed from post.--[[User:Gabgrave|Gabgrave]] ([[User talk:Gabgrave|talk]]) 03:23, 18 September 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Firstly, when I say trying to shift blame, I would refer to the guy who actually took down the page, Vaelis, the admin of the SAO project. On Baka Tsuki, each project can be removed by three groups of people. The translator of the work, the Supervisors, and the admins. Since we&#039;re going to be stuck here for a while, I&#039;ll break it down.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
First, while I said that I didn&#039;t like having 16.5, I respect the fact that it was uploaded. That was why I never demanded for it to be deleted, even though I am vocal against those who wanted it on &#039;&#039;&#039;just to see that Kirito and Asuna have their relationship consummated&#039;&#039;&#039;, which is a completely stupid excuse (note that I don&#039;t say reason here because there was nothing reasonable at all). When I posted &#039;&#039;&#039;in white&#039;&#039;&#039; that I would go unless it was removed, note that it was in jest. Do note that while I am against it being posted, I am neutral against it being removed because the damage had already been done. [http://www.baka-tsuki.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=59&amp;amp;t=3128&amp;amp;start=2040 All the mess can be read from here until the next 5 pages or so] If you had seen my actions during the Volume 9 incident, you would have realized that if I wanted a page to be deleted, I would have just gone ahead to delete all the stuff way back when I joined this project (as a Supervisor), and how I nearly nuked the entire Accel World project here. Now, I really don&#039;t want Vaelis to be blamed for this, but he did delete it after reading through our arguments (on both parties). This is why I say that I will just take all the blame, because if I go on to explain, other people are just going to be implicated as well, (and I&#039;m pretty much...the fall guy on Baka Tsuki at this point). If you&#039;re going to talk about how I had been whining about it affecting my rep, Gabgrave made the mistake I knew was coming from a mile away (before correcting it). No one is trying to be a &#039;parent&#039; here, but I won&#039;t be elaborating on this part because I&#039;m in class right now&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And yes, I am very frustrated that we&#039;re still arguing over when it has been almost 3 months since this was &#039;resolved&#039;. Unfortunately, I don&#039;t think there would be a proper conclusion in this case. The way we have been going on about this is as if some important story was omitted like how Kirito took on Heathcliff. If you say that it&#039;s important, understand this, it&#039;s not in the official printed LN. If you argue for the case of how the MEs and other stuff are all uploaded even though they&#039;re not in print media, again, bottom line is whether the three groups of people want it online.--[[User:Teh Ping|Teh Ping]] ([[User talk:Teh Ping|talk]]) 04:06, 18 September 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It seems like my point is being missed...removing content because it is &amp;quot;objectionable,&amp;quot; is not something I think BT should do. It&#039;s not in the official printed LN, which is why I said it should be moved to side stories. I don&#039;t really care if it consummates their relationship or not (it&#039;s a harem where one girl is given the &amp;quot;I&#039;m going to win regardless&amp;quot; before said chapter even happens, so...) There is no such thing as &amp;quot;damage done&amp;quot; if you ask me: if the author thought it was good enough to be on his site, I&#039;m not going to judge it as some &amp;quot;garbage&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;painful to read&amp;quot; work of a fan. And while you, Gabgrave, may think DxD/Campione is not R-18, you would have an incredibly hard time persuading someone who was raised in a Western environment otherwise (I read all three of these titles, and they go pretty far, haha.) I&#039;m not sure why anyone is getting upset over this, but I can&#039;t keep a rational topic going for long if I&#039;m the only one trying to do so. I&#039;ll drop it with this. -- Anonymous&lt;br /&gt;

Can&#039;t believe I actually registered an account just to respond to this message. Look, are you trying to guilt trip the other guys here, or are you just trying to get them to say sorry for removing and stuff? From the look of your first paragraph, it already showed that you were trying to blame someone for this, especially Teh Ping. I can understand why Ping wanted to hurry up and get over this because he has better things to do than to respond to someone like you who&#039;s digging up the past for your own sake. If you want to know where your beloved 16.5 went, just follow what Zero got to. Rational topic? How rational is it in the first place when you&#039;re talking about it, &#039;&#039;3 months after it was removed,&#039;&#039; when everyone is planning to just continue on, and how about talking about R-18 and stuff when your American standard doesn&#039;t match what the Japanese assume to be R-18? There&#039;s a reason why Campione and DxD are both published while this 16.5, even with Japan&#039;s lax standard for fanservice nowadays, failed to make the cut. Consider me grateful that it was taken down because it was such a huge distraction (Doesn&#039;t chapter 17 imply that they did it in the first place?). Now, if you&#039;re going to continue to post here regarding this, I think Teh Ping would be pissed that he has to be the one arguing with you instead of working on volume 10 of SAO (I can only remain patient as a reader).--[[User:Wertmog|Wertmog]] ([[User talk:Wertmog|talk]]) 21:38, 18 September 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

I&#039;m honestly kind of impressed. Like, why do either of you visit this site? Apparently neither of you can read at all! I do not care about too much about 16.5. It is easy to find and it does not add much, if anything, to the story. I care about the fact that &#039;&#039;&#039;IT WAS CONSIDERED SOMETHING THAT SHOULD NOT BE UPLOADED AND LATER REMOVED BECAUSE OF OBJECTIONABLE CONTENT.&#039;&#039;&#039; There is nothing about guilt trips and I have no idea why people like you have to make things personal despite my repeated assurances that I was not. The entire point of me bringing up standards is because &#039;&#039;&#039;THERE ARE NO SUCH STANDARDS.&#039;&#039;&#039; What is considered obscene in Japan is not considered obscene in the US, and the opposite is often true as well. When you do things like this, you create a standard. And creating this particular standard jeopardizes other projects in the future because declaring what content is appropriate is a &#039;&#039;very&#039;&#039; slippery slope. There is nothing to argue about; this is simply how things work. That concerns me and I would rather say &amp;quot;this looks dangerous&amp;quot; instead of standing by and waiting for things to play out. I&#039;m glad Ping cares enough to read and respond to my concerns, but it seems like he simply assumed I was complaining about how 16.5 is gone and nothing more. I don&#039;t want to assign &amp;quot;blame&amp;quot; or else I would be quite frank about it (as I am with you two.) I don&#039;t consider it his responsibility that the chapter was taken down, but BT&#039;s as a whole. Furthermore, Ping is free to do whatever he pleases; I doubt he considers &amp;quot;arguing&amp;quot; with me a priority when choosing between the browsing the internet, translating, and whatever other recreational stuff he does. So take your flame baits somewhere else. Or don&#039;t, I said I would drop this, and now I will. I voiced my concerns and what&#039;s done is done. If someone can&#039;t handle me having the last word, insult me or tell me how wrong I am... or let the issue die.

== Similar to Prince Revolution? ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;ve read two chapters of SAO and up to chapter 4 of PR&#039;s Vol3 and so far the settings are really similar, although they&#039;re different in terms of characters and amount of comedy and other things.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It may be very similar, but you can&#039;t say that this setting is very unique in terms of anime and manga, I mean, look at .Hack. I think that this is the similarity is only a result of the similar settings.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
_______________________________________&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Prince Revolution is the name of the site/group that translates the novel &amp;quot;1/2 Prince&amp;quot; by Yu Wo. Not the novel itself. There may be some similiarities to 1/2 Prince, the .Hack//-series or Yureka, but that is because all of them are about virtual reality MMOs. If you look at them from another point of view, you might see the differences in the plot. SAO is about being trapped in the game, with virtual death killing your real body and the struggle to escape this. This is not the case in 1/2 Prince, where the big problem lies in&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
-*************SPOILER ALERT START************ (Is it possible to put the following lines in a spoiler-tab? I have no idea how to do it)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
NPCs getting self-concious and revolting against human players in the game world. Yureka also have a few &amp;quot;virtual death = real death&amp;quot; parts, but the main story is about the main character finding the hacking program called Yureka who is somewhere in the game world. I haven&#039;t read .Hack//, so sadly, I can&#039;t say anything about that.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
-*************SPOILER ALERT END*************&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, think of this before you imply that a novel is a copy of another one. Sure, it may have been an inspiration to SAO (Actually, that depends on which of them were written first), but unless the plot is the exact same thing, they are looked at as two different novels. An example of this is Lion King. It is inspired by Hamlet, but would you sue Disney for trying to copy Shakespeare?&lt;br /&gt;

Since I&#039;m fluent in Korean, I could help a bit if anyone is doing the translations from the Korean RAWs.&lt;br /&gt;

== Is there going to be a SAO-manga or did I just see something else? ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hey, &lt;br /&gt;
I just saw some kind of SAO-manga and wasn&#039;t quite sure what it actually was - a oneshot? some fan-made stuff? or is there really going to be a SAO-manga?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It&#039;s about 33pages long and just looked like the beginning of the first volume, though it was a little different.&lt;br /&gt;
And as I neither have seen anything about a SAO-manga existing up till now nor am able to read japanese, I just thought I&#039;d ask here. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Here&#039;s the link: http://comic.xxbh.net/colist_171754.html&lt;br /&gt;

Isn&#039;t that the illustration from Volume 1 page 2-3? Try google translate--[[Special:Contributions/68.100.64.165|68.100.64.165]] 06:05, 29 November 2010 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
---------------------------&lt;br /&gt;
As I already pointed out it&#039;s 33pages long. I should have made that clear, sorry -&amp;gt; http://comic.xxbh.net/201010/171755.html (link to the chapter)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Yup, there is a SAO manga. I read a few chapter in chinese quite some time ago. &lt;br /&gt;
- [[User:Destinyz|Destinyz]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ah, ok thanks.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Well, for those who intend to read it, a small advice : don&#039;t u_u. The novel story is way better, even though I thought it would be great in anime or manga x). - Allucyfer&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== LAUGHING COFFIN ARC ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ok, I have been debating with myself (I&#039;m going nuts) whether to add the LAUGHING COFFIN ARC in the table of contents- It seems that this arc, happened during Aincrad, a side story that should be included in the Volume 2. But because it&#039;s long (4 chapters) the publishers dropped it, but the events in this is mentioned in vol.1, tho, in a few words only. It&#039;d be nice if we can read the entire story about this right? Kirito, Asuna and other Clearers vs the Laughing Coffin Guild, the biggest PKers in Aincrad. - Saorian&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;d love to read the laughing coffin arc. From what I&#039;ve heard, it might be important to some of the other books. But, would you add it as if it were another book - like instead of Sword Art Online: Volume ## --&amp;gt; Sword Art Online:Laughing Coffin Arc?--[[User:Darn2k|Darn2k]] 14:36, 15 April 2011 (UCT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
How about like this: Volume SS - LAUGHING COFFIN ARC , and stick it between Volume 2 and 3? - Saorian&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I added it - since Side Stories 1,2,3,6 were made into vol2 Aincrad, Side Stories 4 included in Phantom Bullet vol 5 and Side Story 6 got it&#039;s own very own book, vol 7 - It&#039;s safe to say that SAO SS 5 - Laughing Coffing Guild arc, won&#039;t get published as it&#039;s Timeline was passed on already (between vol 2 and 3) The other SS respected the proper timeline...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
----&lt;br /&gt;
Btw. if more timeline issues pop up you could create a timeline page, where the story is listed sorted in chronological order... --[[User:Darklor|Darklor]] 21:57, 16 May 2011 (UCT)&lt;br /&gt;
----&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So is this chapter even published? Because from what I read here it seems it&#039;s out but nobody wants to add it cause we already went past it in chronological order.&lt;br /&gt;
I fail to see how that&#039;s a reason though as the special with Kirito meeting Asuna was inserted after we went past those event.&lt;br /&gt;
Can someone clarify?&lt;br /&gt;
Thanks.--[[User:Mufarasu|Mufarasu]] 22:06, 11 March 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It&#039;s in volume 8 first side story, with the name &#039;A Murder Case In the Area&#039; --[[User:BeginnerXP|BeginnerXP]] 20:53, 12 March 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

== Simply Amazing ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is simply amazing. Honestly I&#039;m not much of a crybaby I watch and read sad animes and mangas all the time and just take them in as a story. So far I&#039;ve only cried twice during watching all the animes and mangas I&#039;ve seen in the past 5,6 years of my life, to Bitter Virgin (Manga) and to Kanon 2006 (anime... which truthfully I watch all eps in a single sitting crying from ep 7 onwards practically non stop.). So far this Story has made me cry numerous times. It is so well written and the characters are so real its strange.Only problem I have with it is that I don&#039;t like how volume 2 works. I only really like the AsunaxKirito/Kazuka storyline not all that extra stuff that doesn&#039;t continue on with the story. Sadly the way I see it after reading Volume 1 I can&#039;t see any room for a prequel. The story starts with entering SOA. And nothing that happens up until he kills the Ragout Rabbit matters. I spose how Asuna and Kirito initially met matters slightly but honestly, I find it much better knowning that they knew each other as acquaintances and thats all. Even the part about him having Asuna nap next to him really doesn&#039;t add all that much.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Volume 3 while not as touching seems to bring up a lot of my memories of the first volume as well as adding in some slight new things... it doesn&#039;t really seem it (so far only on chapter 3) but it does so in a subtler way then Vol 1&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

 [Edit: Adding to what I have to say.]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Well, read volume 2 as it comes out and stuff. It is full of Kirito&#039;s awesomeness. Also, one of the things I love most about this novel is how &amp;quot;The Black Swordsman&amp;quot; is codeword for &amp;quot;Oh Shi-!&amp;quot; [[User:Ax&amp;amp;#39;el|Ax&amp;amp;#39;el]] 21:09, 16 May 2011 (UCT)&lt;br /&gt;

== The Tentative time line ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think you should remove the tentative time line from the page or put it under spoilers, because it spoils for people who didn&#039;t read it, how the first volume ends.&lt;br /&gt;

== Suspense: Volume 4 Chapter 9 ==&lt;br /&gt;

Ahhh dear editors, don&#039;t build up sooo much suspense! I and I think many others are like dying to read the final chapter (though I think the highlight were chapter 7 and 8). But really thanks a lot for all of your work! I really appreciate it!&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
First off, thanks so much for the excellent translating job everyone&#039;s doing! But, I&#039;m a little confused as to why v7 is being translated before v5&amp;amp;6. Is v7 a type of stand-alone volume/how does it relate in time to the arch&#039;s of v5&amp;amp;6? Ok, now I think I&#039;m rambling, but I hope you get what I&#039;m asking. Thanks again and keep up the good work!&lt;br /&gt;

They are being translated by different groups/people.--[[User:Darn2k|Darn2k]] 19:03, 26 May 2011 (UCT)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
I don&#039;t think so, or at least if it is, no-one has updated to show a larger portion of the story. which is a pity really because there aren&#039;t enough translators, though if decent enough translations are made part by part, and the abundant editors will probably be able to sort out grammar and consistency [[Special:Contributions/92.41.251.249|92.41.251.249]] 16:39, 7 November 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

== Great story, great translation! ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I just finished volume 4 and I wanted to stop by and say how awesome you guys are for translating this.&lt;br /&gt;
This series is a great piece of science fiction and I&#039;m glad you guys are bringing it to another audience.&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;ve heard how troublesome and time consuming translating can be, especially Japanese, but you&#039;re all doing an awesome job!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Keep up the good work! :)&lt;br /&gt;

== I think this is an issue ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Chapter four of Mother&#039;s Rosario has the link that leads to chapter five, but chapter five isn&#039;t shown as being done or having any link on the main project page.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

I heard a game is coming underway too, is that true?&lt;br /&gt;

How many episodes do you suppose there will be in the anime? Hope they&#039;re more than 12. Also is there only one season planned or will that depend on the ratings? GAME?!?!? mmo based on ALO or visual novel?&lt;br /&gt;

== Replacement of nav table with nav template ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I would hence like to propose that we replace the current (and if I may say, extremely limited capability carrying) nav table system:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
ie:&lt;br /&gt;
{| border=&amp;quot;1&amp;quot; cellpadding=&amp;quot;5&amp;quot; cellspacing=&amp;quot;0&amp;quot; style=&amp;quot;margin: 1em 1em 1em 0; background: #f9f9f9; border: 1px #aaaaaa solid; padding: 0.2em; border-collapse: collapse;&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
| Back to [[Sword Art Online:Volume 2 Chapter 3|Chapter 3]]&lt;br /&gt;
| Return to [[Sword Art Online|Main Page]]&lt;br /&gt;
| Forward to [[Sword Art Online:Volume 2 Chapter 4 Part 2|Part 2]]&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
with the new [[Template:SAO Nav|SAO Nav Template]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
ie: {{SAO Nav|prev=Sword Art Online:Volume 2 Chapter 3|next=Sword Art Online:Volume 2 Chapter 4 Part 2}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
which is becoming popular and has more capabilities/advantages.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Advantages of the new system:&lt;br /&gt;
#We can decrease the overall page storage size. (No need to write long code, just the call code will be enough, take a look of this section in edit mode to get the picture.)&lt;br /&gt;
#Have a call code that is easier to:&lt;br /&gt;
##memorize&lt;br /&gt;
##recall&lt;br /&gt;
##and write. (Again, see in edit mode if you still don&#039;t understand)&lt;br /&gt;
#Have page jumping ability to any page in the series regardless of where we currently are, thus speeding up page navigation in case of checking previous or future facts for comparison.&lt;br /&gt;
#Can make changes to template page itself and have the navs on the pages immediately mirror the changes. (Reduction of data redundancy and error, ie: you wont have to go through all the pages and change every single one just editing the template page will be enough).&lt;br /&gt;
#Template&#039;s next and prev links are generic so they can be used for both volume and chapter pages without problems, ie: uniform system.&lt;br /&gt;
#Collapsibility ensures that size is compact and acceptable, for jumping one just needs to expand it by clicking the [show] link.&lt;br /&gt;
#Page center aligned. (Not really important, it looks better than right aligning it, still... minor point)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This template was previously fully implemented but then removed due to some issues. All those in favor or against please respond. If you wish any improvements to the template then please suggest them on the [[Template Talk:SAO Nav]] page. I will address them as best as I can.

Hey hey. If there is no one against it then it is fine to implement it, right? I mean the advantages listed above show that it is more beneficial to implement. And no one having any points against it kinda also suggests the same. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 07:34, 28 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m against it and I already implemented a nav bar with most of the advantages you mentioned. I put it in volume 1 and will do the other volume soon.&lt;br /&gt;
[[User:Vaelis|Vaelis]] 08:47, 28 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hmm so you are using this:&lt;br /&gt;
{{Nav|Sword Art Online:Volume 1 Chapter 1|{{SAO List v1a}}|Sword Art Online}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Page jumping is still not implemented. That is the main functionality of my proposed template. And you say that you are against it? May I ask why? Please explain in detail. I say that there is a great advantage in implementing it because it will allow both users and translators to jump between pages.&lt;br /&gt;
*Translators will be able to navigate between their different chapters more easily and create new chapters with just a click. &#039;&#039;(Plus since the chapter page names will be decided beforehand there won&#039;t be a chance of page name inconsistency that often happens.)&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
*Furthermore, users will be able to navigate more easily as well &#039;&#039;(in the case of dead ends as well as to check a previous chapter for a related fact, or to skip a volume while re-reading, people do that you know)&#039;&#039;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If I recall previously you mentioned that you didn&#039;t like how the template &#039;&#039;looks&#039;&#039; like, is that correct? I must tell you that Infinite Stratos, Itsuka Tenma, Toaru, BakaTest, Chrome Shelled Regios, Dantalian no Shoka have all implemented and started making use of similar templates. I&#039;m only trying to do what is best for this project. Please support me. I assure you that you won&#039;t regret it.

&lt;br /&gt;
On the opposite side the template Vaelis has implemented is rather interesting. Hmm it has properly addressed the problem of repetition, excessive space wastage, as well as the non-user-friendly coding. Particularly that is automatically generating the links. Very interesting. I&#039;ll examine it thoroughly. Maybe I can implement that in my templates somehow. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 17:28, 28 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

Hey hey. We need more participants in this discussion. Please tell us which template you think has more functionalities. User feedback is essential. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 17:37, 28 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I don&#039;t know about other people, but all I need is the link back to Main. The Back and Next is nice extra. For reading, I mainly use my other comp that is not logged on, so I can read cached stuff which is faster. If people don&#039;t already know, if you sign in with a name while reading, you get served fresh pages every time, anon people get faster cached pages.

&lt;br /&gt;
- Personally, I don&#039;t really care as long as &amp;quot;forward&amp;quot; &amp;quot;main page&amp;quot; are included, since I simply tap backspace to get back, though I must say it&#039;d look ugly without the &amp;quot;back button&amp;quot;. Also, jumping through halyard from a volume to another volume is, I must say, unuseful in my case. However, I find the nav bar pretty good-looking, which is the reason why I wasn&#039;t fully opposed back then, even if I was sceptical about it. Personally, if the bar could simply keep the back/forward buttons, the main page buttons, it&#039;d be fine, though I would like the chapter names indicated on th next/previous button. Also, I feel more concerned about these huge references tag that take too much space in the text than the nav bar... [[User:Kira0802|Kira]] ([[User_talk:Kira0802|Talk]]) 21:09, 28 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I agree with Kira. Note this isn&#039;t about SAO directly but rather about this type of navbar as a whole. If I really want to jump chapters/volumes, I really won&#039;t care about 2 clicks instead of 1 (Main -&amp;gt; the chapter I want). Actually, I don&#039;t even use the Main button much, just the Forward one. I can&#039;t recall ever using the Back button. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For me I&#039;m fine whether or not the chapter name is included, because when just reading I don&#039;t care what the name of the next chapter is, I can just click Forward to get to it, and when I&#039;m editing stuff I use the Main Page as a portal (it&#039;d be open in a tab by itself) and the chapter names are available there.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In fact, I&#039;ve even created a group of navs that have most of the advantages you state and maintains the simplicity of the Nav template, but is in my opinion better than the generic Nav template, in that it is specialized for each novel, so if it needs to be changed for some specific novel it can be done without affecting any of the other novels. They can be found [[:Category:Simple_Navbars|here]]. It would be nice if there is some kind of standard that could be decided, for the moment anyways. By the way, I&#039;m starting to think this doesn&#039;t fit in the SAO talk anymore and maybe should have a forum topic.. --[[User:Jonathanasdf|jonathanasdf]] 21:43, 28 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hmm, interesting points, I&#039;ll try and explain my reasoning below:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*You guys might say that you don&#039;t care but you must admit that it is much easier to navigate if it is a one step method (chapter A -&amp;gt; chapter B) rather than a two step method (Chapter A -&amp;gt; Main Page -&amp;gt; Chapter B). While you may say you might not care, page jumping can help speed up navigation for those who reach dead ends or are translating multiple chapters at the same time. Plus the Next, Previous and Main Page Links are already present in the SAO Nav. Additionally I don&#039;t think forum is needed. This is about SAO strictly.&lt;br /&gt;
*About chapter names included in the next previous: my stance is that it makes the whole thing look bulky. And you can simply expand SAO Nav not only to see your own position (black text) but also the positions of all the chapters (translated and untranslated) this helps motivate people to translate more chapters in less time because of the clash between the visual red and blue links.&lt;br /&gt;
*Those who strictly want to use the next/previous/main buttons need not expand the template at all just use the Next, Prev and Main Page Name Links. It&#039;s a system that caters to both types. And just doesn&#039;t restrict itself to one type. Plus the SAO Nav is for the SAO Novels alone so making changes in it will only affect SAO and no other novels.&lt;br /&gt;
*I am not a fan of the words forward and back since they give off a vibe in terms of page navigation history rather than novel navigation (by page history navigation I mean those two back and forward buttons in the Navigation Toolbar of your Internet Browser).&lt;br /&gt;
*Simple Navs only cater to those who read through linearly and only once. Not everyone does. SAO Nav caters to both parties and it&#039;s already ready to roll, so why is it wrong? [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 23:37, 28 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
hahaha if only that was true :P&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It&#039;s not &amp;quot;wrong&amp;quot; imo, it just seems a bit ... overkill. I&#039;m neither for nor against, in that my stance is &amp;quot;I don&#039;t really care either way as long as there is some way to get to the next chapter&amp;quot;, but I would like it to be standardized. Also, even if this is SAO only I still think it belongs in the forums because it&#039;s hard to quote stuff in wiki. --[[User:Jonathanasdf|jonathanasdf]] 00:54, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It&#039;s actually true. It&#039;s a subconscious trick I learned from my experience with mediawiki. People can&#039;t stand redlinks. They desire to remove them or turn them blue. If they can&#039;t remove them then they can &#039;&#039;&#039;only&#039;&#039;&#039; turn them blue by making articles. This is one of the things I have learned. Please have faith in me. I believe this trick has actually helped speed up the translation rates on many of the projects where similar templates have been implemented. I don&#039;t know about you guys, but I am sick and tired of waiting. If only I could read kanji/hiragana/katagana, I could help translate. But since I can&#039;t I must use such methods. If I didn&#039;t I&#039;d just be a simple leacher (At least this way I can contribute indirectly). Furthermore, I assure you that my template will sate &#039;&#039;&#039;both&#039;&#039;&#039; those who want linear navigation &#039;&#039;&#039;and&#039;&#039;&#039; those who need to jump between chapters quickly. Isn&#039;t that better than just favoring one party? [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 10:20, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

I hereby declare. Implementing SAO Nav &#039;&#039;&#039;will&#039;&#039;&#039; improve not only the navigation but also the rate of translation. It is a time-tested surefire method.

There&#039;s no need for that. Ping&#039;s doing a good job enough so we don&#039;t need to subconsiously press him. IMO, anavbar should just go forward and to the main page. No, wait, you just need to click &#039;SAO&#039; on the sidebar to get back to the main page. Also, Zero, I&#039;ll ask you this: When do you surf through a certain chapter of a volume to another chapter 2-3 volumes after? There&#039;s no need for that, and in my old computer, the bar colapses too slowly. Not that I do really mind, since it&#039;s at the bottom, but still, it loads unnecessary content.

&lt;br /&gt;
I prefer the old one for its simplicity. Just go for previous/next chapter, and navigate 2 other chapters frm main page. short n simple. --[[User:Chancs|Chancs]] 11:29, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Time-tested surefire method? Where&#039;s the evidence? As for why I personally don&#039;t think the chapter jumping is useful, it is because I actually rely on chapter titles to look for where I want to jump to, and this navbar doesn&#039;t have (and can&#039;t really have) chapter titles. So, to me there is no advantage of this navbar over the old one, so I am not supporting it.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At the same time, to me there is no disadvantage that this navbar brings since my internet and computer are fast enough to load both at around the same speed, so I am not against it either... --[[User:Jonathanasdf|jonathanasdf]] 13:13, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Simple design is fine, but the aforementioned lack of chapter title is a huge turn-off for me as well --[[User:TheQwertiest|TheQwertiest]] 14:15, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is time tested. Shortly after it&#039;s implementation Infinite Stratos picked up it&#039;s pace of translation as did Itsuka Tenma and Baka Test, I will concede that for some reason it didn&#039;t work on Hidan no Aria, but it still has a high success rate. Toaru and Chrome Shelled don&#039;t count because they are near completion. About the chapters title issue. I can easily implement further variable tags that can take chapter names from writers and thus display them like the nav table of old. Even though I won&#039;t like that but if you guys say that you prefer it that way I can do it. Or I can Implement a system like the one in the [[Template:Nav]]. To have both links and have chapter names be generated automatically. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 16:20, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I surf/go back to check up on a previous fact. For example in chapter 9 of volume 4 the people from Volume 2 make an appearance. I can go back to refresh my memory of them. And sorry I don&#039;t just read a story once. I find that I understand new things each time I read them (like foreshadowings, predictions, etc). Each time I read through I find new and more interesting tidbits. And I am not alone in this. Each and every person goes through stories more than once, either due to the aforementioned reasons or just because they want to read through it again. And it is not definite that they will read through all the volumes linearly. Some might want to skip certain volumes. And I for one find going back to the main page tiresome. It&#039;s unnecessary. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 16:33, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Though &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. Infinte Stratos was pretty much because Ping joined in. The content is rather easy. So is Baka-Test. I don&#039;t know about Itsuten though. However, the implentation of nav bar coincided with the summer vacations, if I remember well, so it&#039;s another factor.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. OK, fine, some do use the &#039;skip a few chapters&#039; function. However, from what I see from the comments, no one else needs it really.&lt;br /&gt;
[[User:Kira0802|Kira]] ([[User_talk:Kira0802|Talk]]) 16:59, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Yeah, I&#039;m not sure that counts as proof, since the cause-effect could really go either way. Rather, I have a feeling it is because the translation speed picked up that there was more attention which led to the navbar being implemented. After all, I only see this navbar in the most popular novels...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And I was talking about the chapter names in the expanded navbar. I don&#039;t really care about chapter names in the next/prev because the only time I need chapter names is when I&#039;m looking back for stuff. I don&#039;t think this navbar can easily have chapter name support in the expanded mode because some of them are really long. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;ll try to stop writing anything more here since my stance is neutral anyways... --[[User:Jonathanasdf|jonathanasdf]] 17:45, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;About being not needed:&#039;&#039; Dude, that&#039;s how all new things start out. People think they don&#039;t need them but give a while of use and it becomes indispensable. A few centuries ago people didn&#039;t need electricity or natural gas as much as they do now. But now, they start rioting if it&#039;s cut off for too long.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;About Translation Speed:&#039;&#039; Ping was present before the template was added as well but only two volumes were translated. However after the Infinite Stratos Nav was implemented I believe a fire was sparked in Ping. I believe the redlinks were the motivation or rather the inspiration he needed. Of course I don&#039;t think this method affects everyone. But I&#039;m sure it does affect some. and their example will move others, kind of like those cartoons where a little rock knocks down a bigger one which in turn knocks over an even bigger one, thus triggering an avalanche. We need to motivate people, even if the most mundane or subliminal methods are present I believe we should grasp and use them. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 17:49, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Even if it is circumstantial evidence at best I have faith in this method. About chapter names: True it would be difficult to implement full chapter names. But it is possible in some cases. However we are not talking abpout nav templates as a whole. Only for SAO. Please bear that in mind. And SAO does not have many named chapters. So that isn&#039;t an issue here. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 17:55, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
...Zero, why would Ping scroll the nav bar anyways to see the red links? In my case, I post the translation, then I say &#039;Goodbye&#039; and leave. Also, he posts his translation progression in the forums, in a portfolio. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For the chapter names, I&#039;d like to say that I want to know where I&#039;m heading when I press &#039;forward&#039;. Especially when there&#039;s 24 chapters in a volume that you don&#039;t care to remember which chapter you are on. [[User:Kira0802|Kira]] ([[User_talk:Kira0802|Talk]]) 21:38, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Seeing red once would be enough, it stays in your head. Plus it is a fact that the pace picked up after implementation. And like I said I can add the next/prev page name display functionality if you guys really want it. But that&#039;s something to be requested on the [[Template Talk:SAO Nav]] page. It&#039;s actually quite simple to implement that. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 00:45, 30 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
------------&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
OK, here are the facts, ingnoring the IS argument since it was mostly because Ping started translating like a madafter he finished Index. They obviously show the opposite of what you are saying. Here&#039;s my statement: &#039;&#039;&#039;The translation pace does not get faster if there is a nav bar of added, with all the red links and else. It might even slow the pace.&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Itsuten: Volume 1 got completed 7 days earlier than Volume 3. Volume 1 was done before the nav bar was added, and volume 3, after. Can&#039;t say if it worked or not, but it&#039;s more penching towards the &#039;no&#039; side.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Hidan no Aria: The comparison before/after is obvious. It didn&#039;t work.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Dantalian: What is the number of chapters completed since the nav bar was added? 0. It probably didn&#039;t work.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Chrome Shelled Regios: 41k done in around four months. Around 178k before for the same length of time. Didn&#039;t work.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Toaru Majutsu no Index, NT and SS: I can&#039;t find the updates page, but it probably changed nothing. However, Ping retired shortly after, so the place probably got slower. Following that reasoning, I say that it has less translation after. Though let&#039;s put this in the gray zone if you really want to insist.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Baka To test: Volume7 has been done in 78 days. Volume 3.5 in 76. Hwever, since the nav bar was added during the translation of 7, soI can&#039;t use that. As for Volume 7.5, I didn&#039;t calculate it as different chapters were done in different orders, and that I use the beginning of the first chapter and the creation of the full text as references.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Sword Art Online: During the time the bar was used, there were no completed chapters. Did not work.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, you argument does not stand, Zero. [[User:Kira0802|Kira]] ([[User_talk:Kira0802|Talk]]) 15:45, 30 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

:Finally, someone who does his homework. I see, but I still hold that it does motivate others at a subconscious level (so much so that people don&#039;t realize it, normal rate is that it takes half a year to translate a single volume). It does not change the fact that SAO Nav will make navigation easier. Does it? Easier navigation leads to more popularity in websites which in turn will lead to faster development here. &#039;&#039;&#039;[http://www.mardiros.net/good-navigation.html That is a fact]&#039;&#039;&#039; (See &#039;&#039;Less clicks the better&#039;&#039;). Jeez it&#039;s even drilled into every Computer Science student while discussing website development. Just look at the sidebar on the left. Why do you think they listed and linked the project names there when they could have made a separate page with the list? Answer: for faster navigation. Just because you won&#039;t use it, it&#039;s not right to ignore those who do. If you think there are people who would use it, shouldn&#039;t you accommodate them? Or will you ignore them just because they don&#039;t think like you. That&#039;s why I integrated next prev in all the nav templates, so that &#039;&#039;both sides would be happy&#039;&#039;.

&lt;br /&gt;
:You also mentioned (many posts ago) that the SAO Nav would collapse slowly. That&#039;s a personal problem. Since coding is used for the collapsing function, it stands that it&#039;s the fault of your computer alone. Nowadays everyone has at least a Core 2 Duo level processor. Those who don&#039;t are way behind the times. If you also have a Core 2 Duo or higher level processor then you must have CPU % intensive processes running on your computer in the background (try terminating them if there are, just be sure to check if they aren&#039;t a critical process on the net). But even if you don&#039;t and there is some other reason for the slowness that is no concrete reason to shelve faster navigation. The bar is at the bottom. By the time you would reach the bottom of the page (while reading) it would already have been collapsed. Like I said before it might not seem necessary now but give it a few weeks and it&#039;ll become indispensable. That&#039;s how it always goes with every new thing.

:Toaru and Chrome Shelled Regios were already near completion before the navbar was implemented. The navbar does not seem to work for nearly completed projects for some reason. I acknowledge that weak point. I also acknowledged that the navbar doesn&#039;t affect everyone but those it does effect would in turn affect others. As for SAO I don&#039;t think enough time was given before it was taken down. Thus that cannot be included. Hidan no Aria: well I won&#039;t say anything on those guys. They&#039;d probably take offense. But at least they didn&#039;t reject the template so they must have either found it useful or didn&#039;t care.

:Yes. Yes. Yes. I am a &amp;lt;big&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;BIG&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;/big&amp;gt; fan. But I can&#039;t translate (although I can be an editor/proofreader, but I don&#039;t think it&#039;s enough). So I did what I could and made a nav template with advanced features. I wanted to help in any way I could. And what happened? A few days later all the changes I made were removed just because it looked slightly different from before. Look, with progress comes change. You can&#039;t help it. If you can&#039;t adapt then we&#039;ll just stay stuck in the same place forever. If you google it you&#039;ll find thousands of articles by famous website developers saying one thing. The lesser the number of page loadings required to get to a goal the better, aka &amp;quot;less clicks the better&amp;quot;. Why do you think the sidebar with links to all projects exist? Why do you think that the chapters are transcluded into one volume page after said volume is completed? Answer: people want to reach their goal quickly and with less page loading. Please, I humbly request that I be allowed to apply SAO Nav. It will speed up page navigation for sure, thus it is &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;beneficial&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039; &#039;&#039;&#039;(not detrimental)&#039;&#039;&#039; to the SAO Project.

Think I have an idea about the resistance, your version is nice but it&#039;s a lot of work to update.

:I can promise to make and update them for a long time. And I promise that before I leave I will train a successor that can do it as good as or even better than me. I can&#039;t say forever since life doesn&#039;t have any guarantees. Plus actually the templates are understandable by anyone who just sits down and looks at the code properly. That&#039;s how I learned, at least (ie: By looking at others work and understanding how it is done). Furthermore I think there are candidates for my successor here already. Vaelis who designed [[Template:Nav]] for instance, there&#039;s also larethian. And what do you mean it is a lot of work to update? For a new volume, all you have to do is copy the code for the previous row, make the necessary changes (ie: change the volume number and chapter links) and viola! It isn&#039;t tough at all. The people at other projects have already learned how to update them. Just a few days ago [[Template:Hidan no Aria Nav]] was updated with a full volume and not by me.

Excerpted from a dialogue from Vol. 6 Chapter 13:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Kikuoka: &amp;quot;...That was really shocking. I thought that this little thing was the ALO support system «Navagiation Pixie»... but to gather so much information and make conclusions at such a short time. Little girl...are you interested in &#039;&#039;&#039;pu&#039;&#039;&#039;...no, do you want to work for the «Virtual Division»?&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think it should be &amp;quot;la&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;ra&amp;quot; instead of &amp;quot;pu&amp;quot;. The &amp;quot;ra&amp;quot; part is actually a foreshadowing to the next main arc, Alicization.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I didn&#039;t really understand what he meant to say so I left it as the translator had it. I think the &amp;quot;pu&amp;quot; might be part of &amp;quot;public&amp;quot;? What do you think the &amp;quot;ra&amp;quot; means? Anyway this should be in ch 13 Discussion. [[User:Xplorer30|Xplorer30]] - [[User_talk:Xplorer30|Talk]] 18:06, 29 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

Hello, I&#039;m Gingi from vnsharing. Would you mind if I translate Sword Art Online into Vietnamese based on your translation? Thank you for such a great novel and look forward to your reply.&lt;br /&gt;

== volume 8 chapter 2 name ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
shouldn&#039;t it be called &amp;quot;Calibur&amp;quot; instead of &amp;quot;Caliber&amp;quot;?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
just asking. &amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp;&amp;amp;nbsp; ..::[[User:Gradient|Gradient]]::.. 09:29, 4 January 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That probably makes more sense, but &amp;quot;Caliber&amp;quot; seems to be an intentional English spelling. It is probably meant to be a pun. [[User:Thinklife|ThinkLife]] 10:53, 4 January 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I originally had it as Calibur for the sword name we are familiar with, but I happen to glance at the last chapter while counting parts, and sigh. The author went and explained the name of the sword when Sinon asked about it. That&#039;s how it ended up as Caliber.

== Asuna&#039;s Avatar - a mystery ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Correct me if I&#039;m wrong, but didn&#039;t it say that Asuna did NOT buy the NervGear she uses when playing SAO? If so, why is her avatar a perfect image of herself? Didn&#039;t the sellers only scan the people who actually BOUGHT the NervGear? Since Asuna just used the NervGear which wasn&#039;t hers... wouldn&#039;t that make her avatar look like someone else? @___@&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Nah, you remember how Cline said when you start up you have to calibrate it to yourself? So when she put it on, she had to go through the calibration, thus it looks like her. [[User:Syaoran|Syaoran]] 01:14, 17 January 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I doubt that NervGear has the scanning functionality. As a specialized gear, it wouldn&#039;t need scanning functionality for normal game play. Another manga with a similar virtual reality background [http://www.batoto.net/comic/_/comics/yureka-r101 Yureka] has a similar avatar system and has a separate body scanning step as well. -[[User:Milki|milki]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Well, my evidence was these lines:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;There are high density signal sensors in the NERvGear covering our whole head. So it can tell not only how our brains look, but our faces too...&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
And&lt;br /&gt;
Calibration was where the NERvGear measured «how much you had to move your hand to reach your body». This was done to reproduce the sense of feel accurately within the game. So to say, it was almost as if the NERvGear had data about our exact figures saved inside itself. [[User:Syaoran|Syaoran]] 02:04, 17 January 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I suspect that, while the NERvGear would be able to scan the face to reproduce facial expressions to an extent, it does not do the same for the rest of the body. Calibration could probably be done by just measuring nerve signals - move your hand up towards you until you touch your body, and it would just recognize your hand/arm movement until you touch your body. -[[User:Milki|milki]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Actually, currently there is a machine that can calculate your body muscle and fat composition by running electricity though your body and it is just as big as a regular scale. Moreover it is easy to obtain your height and leg length through the calibration process. By applying this data, it is pretty easy to build a body that is similar to your current body.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Another theories is to use ultrasonic (or supersonic) sound wave to obtain your body image. NERvGear can emit microwave strong enough to melt your brain so it is not entirely impossible.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My concern is how the did it obtain the character hair style since the NERvGear is like a bike helmet ^^!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is only my speculation, anybody whom actually an expert in this field please feel free to correct--[[User:Hayate-sama|Hayate-sama]] 13:11, 17 January 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The NERvGear is an mini MRI/NMR (for scanning, and pulsed magnetic stimulation for feedback) so it can scan the head and face. No idea how it gets eye and hair color though. It might be able to find out the lenght of the hair and how curly/strait it is by the hight percition scanning. To even work the NERvGear needs submilimeter acuracy so scanning the hair will be easy. (Anon)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For the hair style: I think hair style is something the players can change by themselves, like how one can pick up movable objects, I think combing would be allowed at least. The only difference is hair color which, from what I know from Aria in the Starless Night (SAO SS), is customizable via a monster drop item. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 22:57, 17 January 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For the body, currently it is possible to take multiple photographs from different angles and compile them to make holograms, thus it should be possible to do the same here (especially since the tech is way advanced here). All one would need to make sure is that the height is given which could be used as a scale for the 3d photo. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 22:57, 17 January 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The skin tone, eye color etc could also be derived from photos, no mystery at all. You can be assured since I am a Computer Science graduate. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] - 22:59, 17 January 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wasn&#039;t there a part where they said her bro bought the NGear and the game, but could not play it as he was overseas, so she was the first to play it? In other words, Asuna would be the first user of the game, and it would be calibrated to her. This assumes that the brother is not a beater, but even then, beta accounts were deleted or reset at the commence of the full game. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If we are discussing about how the body type, height, weight, sex etc was captured, well, they did say they had to key in certain particulars, and run their hands around their bodies. About the Hair styles and color, perhaps its more of what NG reads the mind as being the most comfortable with, through reading of the brainwaves of users in the first hour. Afterall, its not like all the characters in SAO have black hair, but multicolored, which I&#039;m sure would not be true IRL... then again, this is aniverse after all... --[[User:Gabgrave|Gabgrave]] 23:23, 17 January 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
@Zero Yeah, you can use pictures to create a 3D object but the problem is how to take them ^^! unless you have a mirror as big as you, otherwise, it impossible to take those pictures yourself.--[[User:Hayate-sama|Hayate-sama]] 01:13, 18 January 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Please note that SAO occurs in a more advanced world. Furthermore I said that height would be given (ie: entered as a perimeter) so that it can be used as a scale. Thus resizing the image would be possible. Nowadays there are graphic plugins for GIMP and Photoshop that allow resizing (blowing up of pictures, or more simply, making them bigger) without loss of quality. In an advanced world it would be a better process and more commonly used (ie: common knowledge). The main point here is that what we consider specialized knowledge would be common in the setting of SAO. After all, &#039;&#039;virtual reality has become real&#039;&#039; in the setting.

A famous quote from Arthur C. Clarke: &#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;quot;Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic&amp;quot;&#039;&#039;&#039;. You shouldn&#039;t think so deeply on it. Also it&#039;s a fact that as time will pass, what is considered advanced now will be considered common in the future. A general purpose computer, at the beginning, was a machine that was superbly expensive so much so that the normal person could not own it. Nowadays it&#039;s in every home. Well that&#039;s over the span of 60 years. But with things like [http://www.howstuffworks.com/invisibility-cloak.htm invisibility cloaks] being developed, you really can&#039;t say that what I&#039;m saying is wrong.

98 pages? Seriously? No wonder it take longer than usual to translate. I&#039;ll wait for it to be released, because it feels weird to skip over it and read the volume 6.

There is chapter 6 and 7 in volume 5. There is also a chapter 7 in volume 6, that I wanted to make into prologue, but our admin Vaelis changed it back to like the book when he fixed the above mistake.

Aaaaah I see. Thank you for clarifying and keep up the good work, it&#039;s a lot more fun to read the properly translated versions over the machine translation.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;PLEASE TRANSLATE VOL. 5 CHAPTER 6 :D (or upload what&#039;s done of it); It feels very awkward to simply skip 2/3 of a chapter.&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I don&#039;t mean to sound rude or anything but could the translators focus on finishing chapters 6 and 7 of Volume 5 , I do wanna read read aria in the starless night but even more than that I wanna finish reading Phantom bullet and there is just 2 untranslated chapters preventing me from reading an entire volume.

Given the previous banter from certain users about this topic in the recent past, this does come off as a little rude.

If you cannot wait, the first chapter of book 6 does cover the events that happen in those missing chapters in summary.

Actually, I still patiently waiting for chapter 6 to be fully translated, even though I have an urge to just skip it and read the volume 6.&lt;br /&gt;
But....how should I say it.... It feels &#039;incomplete&#039; if I just skip it (I&#039;m a bit perfectionist, sorry). So I beg you, if you have free time (which must be hard to find since you also have real life), please, would you consider to fully translate the chapter 6?

Don&#039;t know for sure, but I would need to check out how far the other translator got into the chapter. I got only a couple pages left of chapter 7 anyway, I sure could help out.

 terms - «» or &amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;&#039;&#039; (two single quotes)&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt; (understand that «» is for SAO terms,&lt;br /&gt;

 quotes - &amp;quot;&amp;quot; or “” or &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
 Well, while writing on a piece of paper with a pen “” and ’ are used&lt;br /&gt;
 however &amp;quot;&amp;quot; are known as typewriter quotes and are also completely acceptable&lt;br /&gt;
 But &amp;quot;&amp;quot; or &#039; takes up less space so it is preferred for use in Media wiki based websites like this one.&lt;br /&gt;
 as for &amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt; These are used to &#039;&#039;italicize&#039;&#039; the text. Please ignore them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In other words it doesn&#039;t really matter unless you want to optimize space usage since they both look the same no matter which one you use. So please ignore it. Though the standard on all mediawiki based sites has &#039;&#039;&#039;always&#039;&#039;&#039; been &amp;quot;&amp;quot; and &#039;.

&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m a little confused. In the GGO arc... Is it &#039;&#039;&#039;Bullet&#039;&#039;&#039; of Bullets or &#039;&#039;&#039;Ballet&#039;&#039;&#039; of Bullets? Considering how Battle Tournaments are normally be named, &#039;&#039;&#039;Bullet&#039;&#039;&#039; of Bullets makes less sense than &#039;&#039;&#039;Ballet&#039;&#039;&#039; of Bullets (which actually fits more as far as tournament names go). Reason: fighting and dancing have often been interlinked. In medieval times strong noble warriors were also known for being good dancers since the movements used in battle are often similar to dance movements. See: [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capoeira Capoeira], [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calinda Calinda]. Oh I&#039;m getting off track. Anyways, since fighting and dancing are similar it&#039;s more likely the tournament is named &#039;&#039;&#039;Ballet of Bullets&#039;&#039;&#039; (even if guns are now used, it has historical meaning).

Greetings. When I visited the author old site I saw several items that might be SAO SS.(well some are already being translated.)&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Like [Aria in the Starless Sky], [Absolute Solitude], [Fortune Star], [Resettable Saver], SS5-[A Murder Case in the Area], SS7-[Cradle of the Moon], and [Waterworks] (not sure about some of the title since I&#039;m using Google translate.)&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

I&#039;m very intersting in those you mentioned as I have never run into them before, could you check if there&#039;re actual text inside?

Volume 9 is the version that is published, the web version is the version that was online. --[[User:Pryun|Pryun]] 01:12, 18 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ok.. so is the web version not part of the SAO universe with the kirito and asuna that we know? or its a separate story all together? [[User:Kyo171|Kyo171]] 01:19, 18 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The web version is similar to the published version, but not exactly the same. Any more information I can give is a spoiler, but if you don&#039;t mind spoilers you can go look at the images of volume 9. --[[User:Pryun|Pryun]] 01:23, 18 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hmm... roger that, coz i was confused looking at the images in vol 9 i see kirito and asuna that we are all familiar with, but in the web version there&#039;s a disclaimer saying that the kirito is not the kirito that we know of. I am talking about the roughly translated &amp;quot;Alicization Arc (Web Version)&amp;quot; in the mainpage btw. [[User:Kyo171|Kyo171]] 01:30, 18 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Alicization web version chapter 1 on the wiki is practically the same as the Prologue I of vol 9, author did a lot of minor changes including rewriting in a few places, but the overall summary is still the same. The reason readers felt it wasn&#039;t related to Kirito we know will be explained in the later chapters, but he&#039;s certainly the same Kirito. Alicization is currently the largest arc of SAO series (and I assume it&#039;d be the final main arc of the series too) and would need 5-6 volumes to cover its entire arc -- [[User:BeginnerXP|BeginnerXP]] 09:19, 18 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
ahhh.. thanks for the clarification, i have one more question, when would be the most optimum time to read the side story &amp;quot;versus&amp;quot;, the accel world crossover side story? I am currently on vol 5. --[[User:Kyo171|Kyo171]] 09:42, 18 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m not sure about Accel World side, but for SAO, there&#039;s no reference to anything significant after Fairy Dance, so I think it&#039;s fine to read it right after vol.4, but the story actually took place just slightly before Alicization arc, so author actually wants readers to read it after vol.8 (Accel World vol.10 released after SAO vol.8) -- [[User:BeginnerXP|BeginnerXP]] 10:27, 18 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== It&#039;s weird ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Aria in the Starless Night Side Story is when Kirito and Asuna meet for the first time in SAO. But do both or just Asuna forget about the other? In the other volumes it seems that Asuna got interested in Kirito after she saw him living (lazing around on the field) the game just as he would in reality (ie: the events in Vol8 Ch1, this is mentioned in other volumes too). Did Asuna forget about the events in Aria or what? Or did the author make a slight miss? [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  13:35, 21 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It might be best to think of it like they simply met at a coffee shop, sure, they were fighting alongside each other, but that wasn&#039;t enough to get them past a formal acquaintanceship. [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] 14:24, 21 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Heeh~ Sure &#039;&#039;and the whole bath thing just went over everybody&#039;s head~. Yup~ I&#039;m sure that was something easy to forget~.&#039;&#039; Like that&#039;d ever happen. That&#039;s why I&#039;m confused. He was the guy who introduced her to how food could taste better, he was the guy who taught her that there were better living conditions than INNs, he was the guy who taught her not to overkill and how to choose better weapons. I can get them being at the level of formal acquaintances till that point. What I&#039;m confused about is that in the other volumes there is no mention of her meeting him before the lazing around incident. Like they never even met before that. Weird isn&#039;t it? Well maybe it will be mentioned in vol8 chap1. I can&#039;t wait for the translation. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  16:39, 21 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think there was though, although it was a little subtle, back in the first volume, when it talked about Asuna going around and recruiting the boss assault team. [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] 17:32, 21 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I dunno, Asuna might have blocked off some of that since it wasn&#039;t an all pleasant experience for her. Plus she still did keep that I want to clear this as fast as possible attitude til she met him in the upper floors again, so maybe she just forgot about it while trying to clear? I will agree with you, it is a pretty bad plot hole since you gotta think about it a lot to find a reason. [[User:Syaoran|Syaoran]] 18:10, 21 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I don&#039;t think that it is really a plot hole, as aria is a side story, but then again, recently I have been feeling like Kawahara has been giving them too much time together in side stories, if they were in a group of seven in aria, it would have been much better I believe. [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] 18:13, 21 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was pretty weird that Asuna and Kirito don&#039;t remember this some minor details have also been left out while in volumes but this meeting is just too big of an event so that they could forget but well seeing it is just a side story I guess it should be just fine as just seeing it in a way like you have said before Asuna after not seeing him again just started going crazy wanting to clear the game and Kirito being a Kirito just kinda forgot since the next time they saw each other took place about 1 year and 5 months later??[[User:Lelouch545|Lelouch545]]3:54, 11 Jule (PCT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It&#039;s possible that the author hadn&#039;t thought of any of these events when he wrote Volume 1. There are plenty of other inconsistencies throughout the side-stories, too. Since the side-stories are added after the main arc is over, it&#039;s best not to delve in too deep --[[Special:Contributions/92.239.153.44|92.239.153.44]] 06:21, 11 June 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

Well seems they made a drastic fix in the anime. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  16:31, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thinking of it , they never said once that Asuna falled in love with Kirito at the first meeting right ? They said she loved him when she had seen him &amp;quot;living&amp;quot; the game , but being clearers , it was obvious that they had met each other a while before , for Bosses figths , while mapping or other game contents, so the two of them meeting after one month of game isn&#039;t weird right ? For the memories, do you recall all the things you&#039;ve done with your acquaintances ? I can&#039;t of course , and in SAO  I think there&#039;s a lot more of memories than in our real life, so memories about an other player they met and isn&#039;t that important for them isn&#039;t really worthy of being talked about in the main plot.

== Material Editions ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Material Editions? Is this the name of a new volume? Or a web volume? Or what? I need to know so that I can properly sort the info on the wikipedia page. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  17:07, 29 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Material Edition (ME) series is a series of &#039;&#039;&#039;doujinshis&#039;&#039;&#039; created by Kawahara Reki himself using the pen name &amp;quot;Kunori Fumio&amp;quot; (he used that pen name when he was writing the web novel of SAO). Most but not all of the volumes of the ME series are side stories. He sells the ME series at the Comitia market (not Comic Market) and also some doujinshi shops.&lt;br /&gt;
Below are the list of Material Edition volumes:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* ME1 - The Progressor (a short manga chapter drawn by Kawahara himself)&lt;br /&gt;
* ME2 - Early Characters&lt;br /&gt;
* ME3 - Ceramic Heart &lt;br /&gt;
* ME4 - Cold Hand, Warm Heart&lt;br /&gt;
* ME5 - Salvia&lt;br /&gt;
* ME6 - Algade Showdown&lt;br /&gt;
* ME7 - Continuation. Aria of the Starless Night&lt;br /&gt;
* ME8 - First Chapter of Rondo (second floor side story)&lt;br /&gt;
* ME9 - Monochrome Concerto&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
ME9 - Monochrome Concerto. yes, third floor, I&#039;d do it if I can find raws.--[[User:Pryun|Pryun]] - [[User_talk:Pryun|Talk]] 21:17, 29 April 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

Regarding Pryun-san question about Sword Art Online: Material Editions 1.In my opinion,if it&#039;s allowed,please include the ME1.As it&#039;s a gaiden that&#039;s made by the same author supplementing the canon storyline.It&#039;ll be a sad thing if it&#039;s not posted and no manga reader site have posted it on theirs.--[[User:User753|User753]]-[[User talk:User753|Talk]]- 00:41, 1 May 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Based on what I have seen so far I believe that ME1: The Progressors should be named &amp;quot;The Clearers&amp;quot; instead since that is what the title is talking about in regards to the story and all the translations so far have used the term &amp;quot;Clearer&amp;quot; instead of &amp;quot;Progressor&amp;quot; --[[User:Arctosa|Arctosa]] 10:43, 10 June 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Wouldn&#039;t it be better to rename the chapter pages to include ME#. Example: &#039;&#039;&#039;Sword Art Online:ME9:Monochrome Concerto&#039;&#039;&#039; I mean now that Rondo has continued, so will Monochrome Concerto. It will avoid clashing in the future since you&#039;re probably gonna insert the same include tags as you have in First Chapter of Rondo and then the page name conflict with the side story, y&#039;know. Plus it will become easier to categorize the ME chapters and compile them in the Material Editions volume page when they&#039;re all done.

Just wanted to thank all you guys for working hard and translating the SAO series.&lt;br /&gt;
Now that nearly everything is translated I wanted to ask, how far along is the novel in Japan? Cause when I try to look it up I cant read the pages cause they&#039;re all in Japanese D:&lt;br /&gt;
And is the &amp;quot;cradle of the moon&amp;quot; chapter going to be translated or not, cause from what I read it&#039;s included in the Alicization arc.&lt;br /&gt;
If it is I think it should be removed from the page, as everything else is 100% and this is the only non-translated part so it sorta ruins it when you scroll down and see everything.&lt;br /&gt;
Thanks again to all the translators and editors! --[[User:Mufarasu|Mufarasu]] 13:31, 16 June 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

Better than having the story butchered or cut short in the middle. I&#039;ve always thought 12-13 eps was too little. Besides, the wait will make it all the more worthwhile. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  12:59, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

Very true, I feel that if they released them all at once, I would die before I got to watch any. Although, I am actually quite worried, mainly about the few disconnects in the story, sure they have a chance to correct them, but I want things to progress along with the novels, such as Asuna, I have this bad feeling that they are going to try to get them together right away, which I believe would make things worse. Also the others, if they try to make a harem ending, or some kind of ending where it is unclear who Kazuto ends up with, that will piss me off. Waiting avidly for the new episode.

Urgh. Well, ep 2 is okay, I guess. But I don&#039;t like the fact that they removed so much.

&lt;br /&gt;
There&#039;s no point if the anime is a mere summarization of the LN! It&#039;s like draining the juice out of an orange and forcing others to eat just the soft inner-skin. Well... it was okay for those who haven&#039;t read the LN especially Kirito&#039;s really cool part, but I don&#039;t like it that they cut all the rest of the plot (don&#039;t worry I&#039;m not gonna spoil it). If you squeeze the plot too much it ruins it. Sigh, and they stuck to the plot with Accel World so I was looking forward and hoping... Well lets hope they do better next ep.

I have not seen the episode yet, so I can not say too much, but remember that Accel World had some things that were missing as well, not so much the plot, but things that helped pull things together. [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] - [[User_talk:Draeke|Talk]] - 15:02, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

And there is a point, and the point is the orange, it is the taste of the orange, the feel of the orange, the experience of eating the orange, whether it be juice, fruit, or some viscous substance consisting of orange, orange is orange, and it tastes like orange. [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] - [[User_talk:Draeke|Talk]] - 15:07, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
True for the first. False for the second. The inner skin of an orange itself doesn&#039;t taste like orange you know. I&#039;m talking about that thin white skin you see after you peel off the thick outer orange colored skin. You know, the one that holds the inner juiciness together. Besides, I&#039;m saying it&#039;s okay. It&#039;s just that I don&#039;t like the fact that they removed all that good stuff. You&#039;ll know what I&#039;m talking about when the subs are out.

That way you won&#039;t get spoiled and can look forward to it. The ep 2 is good, but it could have been much better. That&#039;s my stance.

Personnaly , I think Aria was made in the anime and cut in that way just to help the new comers with SAO to understand more about Kirito and not to give the whole SS scenario. 	[[User:Eldivah|Eldivah]] 16:05, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hmm. Come to think of it. That might be it. I mean there was a slight conflict between the stories of the Aria SS and the main story aka volume 1. See a few sections above if you want to know/be spoiled. I&#039;ll explain after the sub is out, but if you take into account what was needed to be done to fix that discrepancy then. Yes, I see. If it&#039;s that reason then it&#039;s alright somewhat, I guess. But there are a few parts that didn&#039;t need to be removed even if that were the case. Still, I&#039;m warming up to the ep 2 now. I suppose time heals all wounds isn&#039;t an exaggeration after all.

Wow, that was something else, yes, content was thrown out, Diabel was not as bad as he was in the novel, and Kirito was awesome, but mainly when he was berating the other beta testers, that laugh, wonderful, that was awesome, Egil is cool, I could very easily see the foundation that they put for the future, and finally, holy crap, they are jumping straight to Red-Nosed Reindeer? That is a massive jump. And poor Argo, completely cast aside. [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] - [[User_talk:Draeke|Talk]] - 17:38, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
See. And besides, Red nosed reindeer was next chronologically. I mean Rondo and Crescendo aren&#039;t completely published yet. Well there&#039;s not much in Reindeer so let&#039;s hope they don&#039;t cut things out this time. At least cutting down Kirito and Asuna&#039;s time in Aria serves to address the problem I mentioned in [[Talk:Sword_Art_Online#It&#039;s weird]]. But why&#039;d they cut down the whole plot Diabel cooked up along with Argo&#039;s scenes? I wanted to see Kiriemon at least.

&lt;br /&gt;
I agree completely, but I also thoroughly enjoyed that episode. Aria did have a really deep story, and they just brushed over it. Oh well, still good, lets hope that they don&#039;t just kill everyone off in the Black Cats of the Full Moon immediately, and keep them around for at least one episode before they die.

&lt;br /&gt;
I think that&#039;s pretty simple , letting the plot of Diabel and Argo must introduce a friend character to the main one , but never use him again , that&#039;s a big problem for the public, next , the plot of Diabel about the Anneal Blade will just drag a lot of questions if they don&#039;t add the whole story about the quest to obtain it , explain the whole thing about the Beta-Test , why Diabel knows of Kirito etc , and then that will be 5 episodes of things unrelated to the main plot or to Kirito&#039;s mental state and settings [[User:Eldivah|Eldivah]] 17:59, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
That might be pretty hard to handle a perspective drawing with a cloak ,how to put it , if she was just wearing a normal outfit or if the rapier was outside the cloak , we won&#039;t have this strange feeling , but , they had to draw it like the rapier comming across the cloak and this ended by having the impression of the rapier being stabbed into Asuna instead.

&lt;br /&gt;
Umm, okay, where did you learn about this? And if so, then how the heck do they compress Red-Nosed Reindeer into one episode, I could see that stretch three or four episodes. [[User:Draeke|Draeke]] - [[User_talk:Draeke|Talk]] - 19:16, 14 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I couldn&#039;t, if they did ALL of Aria (granted they took some stuff out) in one episode then doing the Red-Nosed Reindeer is more than doable in one episode. I wonder tho if they will do the Black Cats portion and the revival portion separate or together, since they could do it as a current event or as a flashback. That said since it seems they are going with one episode for everything like the Murder Case in episode 5 and Sicilia story in episode 4, then its likely they are gonna use the second half for ALO, which all things considering isn&#039;t that bad. I wouldn&#039;t want a full series for ALO (considering its the worst arc imo) and the ending is more conclusive then the end of the Aincard arc.

Tag my name? In any case i got my information from episode titles, i was told this from a friend but i have no reason to doubt it as i knew the episode 3 title was Red-Nosed Reindeer since before episode 1, episode 4 is supposedly Black Swordsman and such and such. As for the timeline, the anime is simply going chronologically based of the novels events, since after all considering the way volume 1 and 2 are its best to do it chronologically, i&#039;m just curious as to how they are going to use flashbacks as they could see animate &amp;quot;First Day&amp;quot; but as a flashback.

I copied his user data as well as the post time/date from history and added it. And duh, there is a high chance of volume 2 stories&#039; episode conversions being named after their chapters.

Man, they had to change so much in the second episode. I think it would have been much better if they used the actual ending of Aria, and actually show Kirito in the second floor during the sunset and all that.[[User:Jasou|Jasou]] 12:10, 15 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

== Question about Frequency of releases ==&lt;br /&gt;

I&#039;m just wondering, what&#039;s the general frequency of the releases?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:I um... watched the first episode of SAO anime, and then I suddenly flung myself to read all the translated LN for SAO... and just finished reading everything except for volume 10 (untranslated), some of the lower sidestories, and material editions...&lt;br /&gt;

::that said, I&#039;m just wondering...&lt;br /&gt;

== Adding Reference? ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While I was translating SAO into Vietnamese version, I happened to find out that the name of Klein&#039;s guild has a meaning behind it (it actually refers to a way of commanding army of Takeda Shingen), so I wanna add a specific reference for it (I get this info from a book, and haven&#039;t found any website mention it, so I guess I&#039;ll just write it down). But do I need a permission to do that? And if I do, where can I get it? I have also checked the RAW to make sure Kanjis are correct anw.

&lt;br /&gt;
Are you guys planning on adding the Progressive volume(s)?&lt;br /&gt;
And could you explain a little more about them?&lt;br /&gt;
From what I`ve read it`s gonna a retelling of several SAO stories but is that it? And thanks, I appreciate all the work you put into translating it.--[[User:Mufarasu|Mufarasu]] ([[User talk:Mufarasu|talk]]) 00:20, 13 October 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

:SAO Progressive... From what I know it&#039;s a reboot of the Aincrad Arc of the series. Starting from Floor 1 and onwards. Featuring Kirito and Asuna so far.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:*Floor 1 = [[Sword_Art_Online:Aria_in_the_Starless_Night|Aria in the Starless Night]]&lt;br /&gt;
:*Floor 2 = [[Sword Art Online:Rondo of the Transient Sword|Rondo of the Transient Sword]]&lt;br /&gt;
:*Floor 3 = Monochrome Concerto [[Sword Art Online:ME9|(Only first chapter TLed so far)]]&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Is anyone here planning to work on Progressive Vol 1? I recently got my ordered copy, and as expected it covers from Aria to Rondo, so I understand if there&#039;s a lack of incentive to translate it considering that the Aria SS has already been translated here and Pryun is still translating Rondo. However, while the Progressive chapters seem to stick pretty close to the original web versions, there are still clear differences, as evidenced by how Aria in Progressive is divided into 15 parts instead of the 20 in web version and Rondo has 14 instead of 40. (Rondo is still about 300 pages long though, so I&#039;m not sure if the author just reorganized it or not.) I was just wondering how the issue was going to be dealt with.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Also, if there are plans to eventually work on Progressive, could I add a sub-section for it on the main page and upload the illustrations I scanned from vol 1? (Admittedly, they&#039;re not the best quality, but I think they&#039;re more than good enough until someone is able to provide a better version.) --[[User:Eternal Dreamer|Eternal Dreamer]] ([[User talk:Eternal Dreamer|talk]]) 21:39, 19 October 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::I&#039;m sure at least 2 translators in SAO project are waiting for the raw of Progressive volume 1 to show up so they can start working on it. But there&#039;s no raw available yet after ten days, when Index NT5, which released on the same day as SAOP1 had its raw available 3 days after the release. At this point, I think the chance to see the proper raw of SAOP1 is pretty slim.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::I personally avoided checking illustration page of the volume I haven&#039;t read, as it tends to be spoilery, but you&#039;re free to create and upload the images if the quality is good enough.

== Name Pronunciation ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Can you guys add a page for character name&#039;s pronunciation ? It&#039;s hard to talk to others while each got his/her own way of speaking names :P&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
P.S: by the way, please make a wider range of question for page-editing. There&#039;s always 1 question whenever I look at it. -Anon&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Well there is the: [[Sword Art Online:Names and Terminology Guideline]]. I suppose we could add ogg files for pronunciation like wikipedia does. I&#039;ll work on it. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  13:50, 18 June 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::You can do it the IPA way, like this: London /ˈlʌndən/ -Anon&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::That won&#039;t be completely accurate. English and Japanese have different ways to pronouncing certain sounds like T, D, etc. Furthermore, few people know the phonetic alphabet in it&#039;s entirety and certainly not those with English as second alphabet. Better to sound it out for them. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  08:03, 19 June 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::So anyone who is great at speaking japanese and a good voice, please volunteer to be the pronouncer. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  08:07, 19 June 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Most names should be straightforward in pronunciation, I assume the names with issues are Lyfa and Sinon? In that case:&lt;br /&gt;
* Lyfa - Ree-fa in JP version, but English changed R to L so Lee-fa is acceptable, just not Lai-fa.&lt;br /&gt;
* Sinon - Shi-non, just like her real name Shino.&lt;br /&gt;
* Eugeo - Yoo-gee-o.&lt;br /&gt;
-- [[User:BeginnerXP|BeginnerXP]] - [[User_talk:BeginnerXP|Talk]] 01:38, 20 June 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Alternately, for whatever name you have no idea how to pronounce, go to the terminology page, copy the jp name you see, put it into google, then ask it to sound it out for you(somewhere at the bottom right corner). That&#039;s the least complicated way, since JP pronunciation is quite simple/fixed. --[[User:Pryun|Pryun]] - [[User_talk:Pryun|Talk]] 05:13, 20 June 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

== Notes on {Alfheim Online} Norse Mythology References ==&lt;br /&gt;
Hey,As most of you have probably figured out, &amp;quot;Alfheim online&amp;quot; is basically one big reference to Norse Mythology. Therefore, I will put in a few definitions/explanations. Note that the Norse viking raiders used a completely different runic system (that&#039;s the proper term for &amp;quot;alphabet&amp;quot;), so spellings are rough. I have also changed the spellings of some words used to be closer to what I think is proper.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1. &amp;quot;Alfheim&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Alf&amp;quot; is a shortened version of &amp;quot;Alfar&amp;quot;, which is the Norse version of elves. Norse elves have characteristics that are very similar to fairies from other mythologies/folktales, therefore &amp;quot;alfar&amp;quot; can be interpreted as either elf or fairy. &amp;quot;heim&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;heimr&amp;quot; means world or realm.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. &amp;quot;Yģģdrasil&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
In Norse mythology, the &amp;quot;Yģģdrasil&amp;quot; (meaning &amp;quot;Odin&#039;s Horse&amp;quot;, &#039;Yģģu&#039; being another name for Odin. pronounce &#039;ģ&#039; with a rasping sound) was a friggin&#039; huge tree at the center of the earth, the roots of which held the whole place together. Curled around the roots of the world tree was this friggin&#039; huge dragon called the &amp;quot;niddhoģ&amp;quot;. The Niddhoģ gnawed at the base of the tree and once it succeded, &amp;quot;Ragnarök&amp;quot; would occur (see below).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3. &amp;quot;Ragnarök&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
Basically, end of the world. World is encased in fire and ice, blah blah blah (wouldn&#039;t the fire just melt the ice then get put out by the resulting water, causing nothing to happen?). After the world is encased in fire and ice, Odin blows the crap out of it. Then he makes a new world tree and a new Earth, and the whole lot happens again.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
4. &amp;quot;Aesir&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;Æsir&lt;br /&gt;
Basically, the norse gods. Means &amp;quot;elevated ones&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5. &amp;quot;Odin&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;Óòin&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
King of the Æsir. Presumably, went to some well to drink, then was told that if he drank from the well, he would lose an eye but gain infinite wisdom. And he did. His job description is basically &amp;quot;Implement Ragnarök and beat the crap out of giants. Repeat.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6. &amp;quot;Thor&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;Þòrr&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
Lightning Æsir. Enjoys blowing up giants. Has a big ol&#039; friggin&#039; hammer called Mjölnir.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7. &amp;quot;Thyrm&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;Þyrm&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
King of the giants. Likes killing stuff, especialy the æsir. He fails at it. Dies a lot and comes back later. Mostly the Norse myths have to do with Odin or Thor beating the tar out of him, again and again and again. This is the kind of stuff Vikings like to hear, I guess.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
8. &amp;quot;Freyja&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;Freyyá&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
Goddess of love, sex, and killing/death (So in other words, the Viking&#039;s favorite mythological character). Also Odin&#039;s wife (Man that sucks, Klein! Better luck next time). Creator and leader of the Valykries (Really pretty women that sweep up dead vikings and take them to Valhalla, a place with infinite food and access to Jötunheimr, so they can pretty much eat, kill, and hang out with pretty women for eternity. Vikings like these people a lot too.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
9. &amp;quot;Jötunheimr&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
Land of the giants, literally. Þyrm and his minions are found here. The æsir and all dead vikings go here to kill giants forever. One of the Vikings&#039; favorite places.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think that sums it up. If there&#039;s anything I forgot that was mentioned somewhere in Alfheim Online, please look it up and edit it in or leave an edit asking for definitions.&lt;br /&gt;
Also sorry for messed up editing causing this post to appear twice. Gomen!&lt;br /&gt;

Norse elves have characteristics that are very similar to fairies from other mythologies/folktales, therefore &amp;quot;alfar&amp;quot; can be interpreted as either elf or fairy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2. &amp;quot;Yģģdrasil&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
In Norse mythology, the &amp;quot;Yģģdrasil&amp;quot; (meaning &amp;quot;Odin&#039;s Horse&amp;quot;, &#039;Yģģu&#039; being another name for Odin. pronounce &#039;ģ&#039; with a rasping sound) was a friggin&#039; huge tree at the center of the earth, the roots of which held the whole place together. Curled around the roots of the world tree was this friggin&#039; huge dragon called the &amp;quot;niddhoģ&amp;quot;. The Niddhoģ gnawed at the base of the tree and once it succeded, &amp;quot;Ragnarök&amp;quot; would occur (see below).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3. &amp;quot;Ragnarök&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
Basically, end of the world. World is encased in fire and ice, blah blah blah (wouldn&#039;t the fire just melt the ice then get put out by the resulting water, causing nothing to happen?). After the world is encased in fire and ice, Odin blows the crap out of it. Then he makes a new world tree and a new Earth, and the whole lot happens again.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
4. &amp;quot;Aesir&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;Æsir&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
Basically, the norse gods. Means &amp;quot;elevated ones&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5. &amp;quot;Odin&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;Óòin&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
King of the Æsir. Presumably, went to some well to drink, then was told that if he drank from the well, he would lose an eye but gain infinite wisdom. And he did. His job description is basically &amp;quot;Implement Ragnarök and beat the crap out of giants. Repeat.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
6. &amp;quot;Thor&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;Þòrr&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
Lightning Æsir. Enjoys blowing up giants. Has a big ol&#039; friggin&#039; hammer called Mjölnir.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
7. &amp;quot;Thyrm&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;Þyrm&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
King of the giants. Likes killing stuff, especialy the æsir. He fails at it. Dies a lot and comes back later. Mostly the Norse myths have to do with Odin or Thor beating the tar out of him, again and again and again. This is the kind of stuff Vikings like to hear, I guess.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
8. &amp;quot;Freyja&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;Freyyá&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
Goddess of love, sex, and killing/death (So in other words, the Viking&#039;s favorite mythological character). Also Odin&#039;s wife (Man that sucks, Klein! Better luck next time). Creator and leader of the Valykries (Really pretty women that sweep up dead vikings and take them to Valhalla, a place with infinite food and access to Jötunheimr, so they can pretty much eat, kill, and hang out with pretty women for eternity. Vikings like these people a lot too.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
9. &amp;quot;Jötunheimr&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
Land of the giants, literally. Þyrm and his minions are found here. The æsir and all dead vikings go here to kill giants forever. One of the Vikings&#039; favorite places.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think that sums it up. If there&#039;s anything I forgot that was mentioned somewhere in Alfheim Online, please look it up and edit it in or leave an edit asking for definitions.&lt;br /&gt;
Also apologies for messed up editing causing this post to appear twice. Gomen!&lt;br /&gt;
:Two minor notes:  1.  The Norse Mythology References section seems to be doubled above/below itself.  2.  Most sections look accurate, but regarding &#039;After the world is encased in fire and ice, Odin blows the crap out of it. Then he makes a new world tree and a new Earth, and the whole lot happens again.&#039; (from section 3, about Ragnarök):  isn&#039;t Odin killed by Fenrir in Ragnarök?  (Before being avenged by his son.)  And wasn&#039;t the Earth made by the frost giants Bergelmir and his wife, out of Ymir&#039;s body?  I unfortunately don&#039;t see where the ideas of cycling Ragnaröks or Odin as an eternal god of creation come from.  -[[User:Multipartite|Multipartite]] ([[User talk:Multipartite|talk]]) 17:27, 14 April 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

== About the alicization character names........ ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I prefer the earlier ones(Ronie, Tizei, Solterina, etc.) than the new ones(Ronye, Tiezé, Soltiliena,etc.) since the former looks more natural, especially of Ronie&#039;s.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
-Anonymous User-&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Well, the current spellings are apparently more accurate in terms of pronunciation. I&#039;ll be honest, when I first read &amp;quot;Ronie&amp;quot;, in my head I heard &amp;quot;Ronny&amp;quot;. As for the &amp;quot;look&amp;quot; of the names, that&#039;s only a side-affect of having read one first, and then looking at the other. That&#039;s pretty subjective.

== Regarding the Web Version section ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I have a question... Isn&#039;t most of what&#039;s within the &amp;quot;Side Stories&amp;quot; section part of the Web version?&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Specificly, [[Sword Art Online:Aria in the Starless Night|Aria in the Starless Night]], [[Sword Art Online:Rondo of the Transient Sword|Rondo of the Transient Sword]], [[Sword Art Online:Sound of Water, Sound of Hammer|Sound of Water, Sound of Hammer]], [[Sword Art Online:Caliber SS|Caliber SS]], [[Sword Art Online:A Spot of Sunshine in the Winter|A Spot of Sunshine in the Winter]], [[Sword Art Online:Cradle of the Moon Chapter 1|Cradle of the Moon]], [[Sword Art Online:There is but one ultimate way|There is but one ultimate way]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So shouldn&#039;t these be included as being part of the &amp;quot;Web Version&amp;quot; section?&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;also, I&#039;m wondering if anyone is actually going to go about translating the web version xD There are a number of exerpts here and there, but not really much... If the problem is getting that actual text, I remember downloading some files of the Alicization arc, even though i understand 0% japanese xD...

== Bullet Lines ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m an editor for the English SAO wiki and recently published 2 new articles for both Bullet Circles and Bullet Lines. However, I had a couple of questions to ask. 1.The terms &amp;quot;Bullet Circle&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;bullet Line&amp;quot; were separate in volume 5, but are more or less merged in volume 6. Is this the case in the original or was this caused by different translators working on the 2 volumes? 2. We&#039;ve had a little dispute over how the sniper advantage actually works. Some of us interpret it as &amp;quot;The Bullet Line does not appear at all for the sniper&#039;s first shot&amp;quot;, while others interpret it as &amp;quot;Players can&#039;t see a sniper&#039;s first Bullet Line because they need to know where to look for it first&amp;quot;. Could you please confirm which of these is true? Thank you --[[User:Gsimenas|Gsimenas]] ([[User talk:Gsimenas|talk]]) 05:42, 19 May 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:I&#039;m not the original translators, but for the first point, I took a look at the source and, yes, there were a few parts where &amp;quot;Bullet Lines&amp;quot; were supposed to have been &amp;quot;Bullet Circles&amp;quot;. I think I&#039;ve corrected all instances, but if you spot more, by all means please post again.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:For the second point, I don&#039;t think even they would be able to sort that out for you - it doesn&#039;t seem like the kind of thing you can clarify by retranslating, if you get what I mean. Personally, I think it&#039;s &amp;quot;The system doesn&#039;t show the target the sniper&#039;s first Bullet Line &#039;&#039;at all&#039;&#039;&amp;quot; rather than &amp;quot;Players can&#039;t see a sniper&#039;s first Bullet Line because they need to know where to look for it first&amp;quot;, and I waved Death Gun&#039;s dodge off as either already knowing where she was because he saw her while using his invisibility cloak, or that &amp;quot;Hypersense&amp;quot; skill (Kirito dodged Death Gun&#039;s own first shot, remember?). Though, this doesn&#039;t really explain Sinon&#039;s own comment about checking through the system, unless it was just a &amp;quot;mind scrambling for answers&amp;quot; thing... -[[User:AKAAkira|Akira]] ([[User talk:AKAAkira|talk]]) 22:44, 23 May 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

::Thank you for clearing that inconsistency out :) . And guess we&#039;ll just have to stick with an assumption on how that system works.

As far as I understand, the chapter begins on the 6th of March/3rd Month, however, the graduation contest that is supposed to take place just 2 days later at the end of the chapter it is said to take place &amp;quot;At the end of March—&amp;quot;. Also &amp;quot;Eugeo and I would be taking part in the advancement exams for elite swordsmen next month.&amp;quot;; &amp;quot;That&#039;s because we were the top 12 students during the promotion exam at the end of the month, and our future roles as elite swordsmen trainees were confirmed.&amp;quot; - are these exams supposed to be separate, because I can&#039;t understand how they can say that their positions as elite swordsmen are already guaranteed when the exam is only going to take place later that month? --[[User:Gsimenas|Gsimenas]] ([[User talk:Gsimenas|talk]]) 14:50, 29 May 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

== Something strange on the Android App ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Not 100% sure this is the right place for this, but...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There is something strange going on with this LN series in the Android app. The &#039;Cradle of the Moon&#039; Side Story chapter(s) is listed a total of 6 times under three separate headings of &#039;Side Stories&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Similarly, I have two header listings for &#039;Sword Art Online: Material Editions&#039;, 3 for &#039;Volume 1&#039; (two of which seem to be Progressive, the other just has a chapter called &#039;Enlarge&#039; which doesn&#039;t seem to contain any data) and a total of 5 &#039;Side Stories&#039; headers. The 12 main headers (LNs 1-12) seem to be fine, as do all of the other LNs I have marked as Favourites in the app.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Anyone got any ideas/fixes?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It&#039;s what happens when people play around with how the sections are listed. The old listing persist because the App downloads and stores the information in a cache, but the &#039;new&#039; listing also pop up showing as duplicates. The easiest fix is to purge the volume cache (touch and hold) then refresh the volume. You could even do this to the entire LN listing from your watch list and run an update check to pick up how things are listed now. Oh...also don&#039;t forget to sign your posts. Helps track who is having these problems in case someone on the dev team wants to talk about it. [[User:Unknownadd|Unknownadd]] ([[User talk:Unknownadd|talk]]) 21:35, 15 June 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

:Sorry about not signing, but since I&#039;m not registered here yet I wasn&#039;t sure it would help anyway. ;)&lt;br /&gt;
:Is there somewhere that I can make suggestions for the app? I&#039;ve just used the Options version of &#039;clear novel cache&#039;, since doing it on a volume-by-volume basis didn&#039;t seem to work, and it wiped out EVERYTHING - My favourites, &#039;read&#039; chapters, everything, so now I have to try and remember what I have read and what I haven&#039;t, what I was planning to read, etc... seems a little excessive. ~AerosAtar&lt;br /&gt;

== Volume 12+ Translation? ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I don&#039;t want to sound impatient, but has volume 12 been put on hiatus? I remember volume 10 and 11 being translated at a fast and steady pace, but 12 hasn&#039;t even had a word translated for 2 months.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Tap is translating vol 12, You can check it out on his blog.&lt;br /&gt;

Well, the project is likely to be discontinued soon. However, Volume 13 is being translated by tap (and he&#039;s about half way though, too.) You can read them on his blog, if you wish.

== Raious Antinous ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I doubt anyone will argue with the conjecture that the eldest son of a 3rd class noble family, Raious Antinous, is a huge dick.&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;d like to point out the significance of his second name, Antinous.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For those of you who&#039;ve read the Oddysey, by Homer (being the sequel to the Iliad), you will understand immediately what I&#039;m talking about.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the Odyssey, Antinous is a character who is attempting to secure Odysseus&#039; bride, Penelope, for himself. Odysseus is assumed to be dead at this time. Antinous is the son of a high-ranking noble who is attempting to marry Penelope, and it is insinuated that, given the chance, he would attempt to rape her. He gets duly killed by Odysseus, who is understandably angry. Actually Odysseus kills him along with several HUNDRED other suitors (BADASS ALERT). ANNNNYways...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Anyone else notice the similarity? Cause i do.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Number of volumes ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;ve noticed over the past week that updaters can&#039;t agree on how many volumes:  Some people update it to 13 and then someone comes in behind them and reverses the update... I&#039;ve seen this happen at least three times this month so far.  I don&#039;t want to start an update war or anything, but I think there ARE 13 volumes now in the main series (not even counting the SAO Progressive): there are certainly 13 volumes listed in section 5... or are we not counting volume 13 since it&#039;s release date is next month?  [[User:Zehd|Zehd]] ([[User talk:Zehd|talk]]) 23:48, 11 July 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think number of currently published volumes must be present, and it will be updated after release date. Looking at this number any user can estimate length of the series and translation progress, other numbers can be misleading.

Bloody Yen Press. Now I&#039;ll never read the ending. If they finish translation at all, it will take about 3-4 or so years before they catch up with B-T...

One, i wasn&#039;t the one that typesetted the text for haganai, i take it was Omb according to what i see by uploads, so i&#039;m not sure what fonts did he use. Second, it depends on the picture, question is too vague, is the picture blurry? Or maybe it&#039;s lots of noise? If its blurry, you can&#039;t sharpen it. You have to redraw it via pen/brush and hours of work. If it&#039;s just noisy, probably blurring out, denoise tools, softbrushes and manual redrawing by hand. Three for the method i use to replace text, when i have actually time to do such a thing, i redraw everything by hand, just by using brush tool, either pentablet or mouse works here, though i recommend using a pentablet myself. --[[User:Krytyk|Krytyk]] ([[User talk:Krytyk#top|talk]]) 12:49, 27 November 2013 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

Wow, redrawing seems very tiring. Is it possible to just use blur and smudge tool? [[User:Castor212|Castor212]] ([[User talk:Castor212|talk]]) 03:47, 29 November 2013 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Well that&#039;s whole another matter, smudge tool is unusable, blur tool is usable, but you need to know when, and in what situation - you can&#039;t ever &amp;quot;accidentally&amp;quot; use blur on lines, means you have to use small brush blur, also it takes time, blur filter, gausian blur filter and topaz - a photoshop addon work as well, but like with everything, you need to know how to use it. Random of tools like blur, or filters will damage the art instead.&lt;br /&gt;

For the time being I&#039;m going to do a few pages a day, I&#039;ll upload them once in a while, i could probably increase the speed, but that would mean the translation accuracy would drop, we&#039;ll see, depending on how hard will it be past the prologue, I&#039;m triple checking the translations and making sure none of double-meanings get lost. --[[User:Krytyk|Krytyk]] ([[User talk:Krytyk#top|talk]]) 06:49, 7 December 2013 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

===Illustration editing===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
May I know what font did you use for Haganai volume 1 colored illustration?&lt;br /&gt;
Alsso, is there any way to sharpen a resized LQ picture? If not, that what method do you use for replacing the jap text to english ones? [[User:Castor212|Castor212]] ([[User talk:Castor212|talk]]) 06:45, 27 November 2013 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One, i wasn&#039;t the one that typesetted the text for haganai, i take it was Omb according to what i see by uploads, so i&#039;m not sure what fonts did he use. Second, it depends on the picture, question is too vague, is the picture blurry? Or maybe it&#039;s lots of noise? If its blurry, you can&#039;t sharpen it. You have to redraw it via pen/brush and hours of work. If it&#039;s just noisy, probably blurring out, denoise tools, softbrushes and manual redrawing by hand. Three for the method i use to replace text, when i have actually time to do such a thing, i redraw everything by hand, just by using brush tool, either pentablet or mouse works here, though i recommend using a pentablet myself. --[[User:Krytyk|Krytyk]] ([[User talk:Krytyk#top|talk]]) 12:49, 27 November 2013 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wow, redrawing seems very tiring. Is it possible to just use blur and smudge tool? [[User:Castor212|Castor212]] ([[User talk:Castor212|talk]]) 03:47, 29 November 2013 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Well that&#039;s whole another matter, smudge tool is unusable, blur tool is usable, but you need to know when, and in what situation - you can&#039;t ever &amp;quot;accidentally&amp;quot; use blur on lines, means you have to use small brush blur, also it takes time, blur filter, gausian blur filter and topaz - a photoshop addon work as well, but like with everything, you need to know how to use it. Random of tools like blur, or filters will damage the art instead.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Btw, do you happen t have a better ver of SAO 12 and 13 illustration than the ones currently on BT?&lt;br /&gt;

Thanks for uploading this series. I excited already about it&#039;s potential! Also are you looking for any editors? - [[User:Tasear|Tasear]]&lt;br /&gt;
You are doing good job translating. Thank for thanking up the craft. I always will be grateful and I promise to give English tips along the way that might help you along the way. (P.S I only mean the tips to be helpful) :)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Talk to you again next chapter! --[[User:Tasear|Tasear]] ([[User talk:Tasear|talk]]) 03:22, 7 December 2013 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For the time being I&#039;m going to do a few pages a day, I&#039;ll upload them once in a while, i could probably increase the speed, but that would mean the translation accuracy would drop, we&#039;ll see, depending on how hard will it be past the prologue, I&#039;m triple checking the translations and making sure none of double-meanings get lost. --[[User:Krytyk|Krytyk]] ([[User talk:Krytyk#top|talk]]) 06:49, 7 December 2013 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sound great and I will check the pages in passing as I prepare for my graduation and finals. Thank you again, for using your skills on this story. Take as much time as your need and don&#039;t worry about your too much speed as I your comrade during this adventure or translation will be here to support your work when it&#039;s time. :)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Editor===&lt;br /&gt;
Any edits are appreciated, especially considering i&#039;m a newbie at translating, also considering english is my 2nd language, japanese being my 3rd, though I&#039;m going to do it at a snail pace due to work and uni. So as long as you have time, you&#039;re welcome to do edits on it!. --[[User:Krytyk|Krytyk]] ([[User talk:Krytyk#top|talk]]) 04:14, 4 December 2013 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thanks! I will be your editor. English is my first language and Spanish is my Second language. Already, I really find this series fantasizing so I defiantly want to be your editor. I can only passively be your editor till my exam are over but I will do my best.  Also, I have already left some comments about the prologue. Overall, I wish you good luck. I just finished my first English to Spanish translation so I understand your feelings.[[User:Tasear|Tasear]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When you get chance please check the discussion. &lt;br /&gt;
In addition here is a very important site about the usage of the word &amp;quot;that&amp;quot; . I dropped the word &amp;quot;that&amp;quot; when it was a Object in Relative Clauses.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[http://esl.about.com/od/advancedwriting/a/Uses-Of-That.htm How to use &amp;quot;that&amp;quot; in a sentence]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
- &amp;quot;Sunset colored hair ...&amp;quot; I was worried about changing the sentence syntax to much. The originally it said&amp;quot; hair shinny brightly with sunset colored.&amp;quot; Your change makes so much more sense. Thanks for all your hard work :)[[User:Tasear|Tasear]]&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

I just saw the image you posted in Code-Zero&#039;s talk page, and by curiosity, I wanted to know which tools did you use in Photoshop. Is it with the Level function, or the Contrast one? Or did you use more than that? [[User:Kira0802|Kira]] ([[User_talk:Kira0802|Talk]]) 18:44, 31 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Well, basicly, first thing is leveling, to level down blacks the way they are supposed to, also i applied a pre-made script (i use it when editing manga) to dedust blacks and whites in the image. That is what i used in that case. If there&#039;s a need i have more tools, scripts, or manual ways to edit images. ;) --[[User:Krytyk|Krytyk]] 19:42, 31 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

I don&#039;t use the smart leveling, i think you mean the three eyedroppers tool on the right side of leveling menu. I do it manually on the diagram, so the question doesn&#039;t apply to me :p. Imho you overleveled abit~--[[User:Krytyk|Krytyk]] 12:16, 2 January 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

Hi, Krytyk. I&#039;m a EN/FR translator for Date a Live [FR] and I wanted to ask you if you can upload the PSD format of Date A Live illustrations or send it to me so I can translate the illustrations too.

Finally came across some HQ illustrations. I was going to pm you on the forums, but newly registered users can&#039;t use that feature. The reason the file is so huge is because the illustrations and pages are unusually large (About 1MB or more for each page), so it&#039;s going to take a while to DL.--[[User:KuroDubZero|KuroDubZero]]&lt;br /&gt;

Sure, thanks a ton mate, getting the HQ raws is a pain, so i appreciate any HQ novels i can get :).

I&#039;m not familiar with this system, I assume I can respond this way? No worries I was hoping that it would at least save time for the person that has been fixing them, I assume that is you? Campione_v2_309-310 has also not been fixed, I doubt many people notice unless they check illustrations. I may ask advice of you in the future, and since I&#039;m not adept at using this wikia format could you message me on Batoto (Expers) if you have an account there instead? Feel free to remove this since it messes up your page. ^^; ~ Expers&lt;br /&gt;

It&#039;s fine, i do have a batoto account with the same nickname, apparently those images (unedited) were uploaded after i ran through images up to vol 7, thats why i must&#039;ve missed them, but thanks giving me a head&#039;s up on them.

I&#039;m suprised supervisors allowed such erroneus code to even appear, i&#039;m sure there was a draft rules on how to format the project pages, it&#039;s not a private space for people to test out their inventions -.-, if you can&#039;t find it, request zzhk or any other supervisor to look through it.  --[[User:Krytyk|Krytyk]] ([[User talk:Krytyk#top|talk]]) 17:48, 23 November 2013 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thank you for your constructive and understanding reply. Various people have already seen this and other pages with the code and either approved or at least didn&#039;t object it. It was even considered a possible solution for different problems on another big project on the site. But of course I&#039;ll gladly nag more supervisors to satisfy you. With this said, why don&#039;t you tell me what on my so-called &amp;quot;private space&amp;quot; is &amp;quot;erroneus&amp;quot; about my &amp;quot;invention&amp;quot;? It might help to improve the &amp;quot;erroneus code&amp;quot;. Again, thank you for your understanding. [[User:Cautr|-cautr]] ([[User talk:Cautr|talk]]) 06:59, 24 November 2013 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Well my reply wasn&#039;t the most curtous one, reason being yours, was just rude. Something that works for you and your browser, and it looks good on your browser resolution, settings, addons, isn&#039;t neccessarily something that&#039;s the best solution for everyone. Most of the people just see mess instead, me being an example, having the image nearly overlap with the chapter titles, being the cause of my reaction and editing it. Baka-Tsuki is a portal allowing you to post your translations, a free space, and also free assistance when it comes to editing your translations, to make sure it&#039;s top quality, by dedicated or patrolling editors. But it also has some rules to make sure readability is at it&#039;s best, and it&#039;s neat-and-clean. Best way to ensure everything is as it should be, is to study how supervisors of the major projects did format their pages, examples being zzhk, KuroiHikari, Code-Zero, and their project pages, like HsDxD, Campione or ToAru. --[[User:Krytyk|Krytyk]] ([[User talk:Krytyk#top|talk]]) 10:48, 24 November 2013 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The image being next to the chapter titles is intentional, a better example of the pros of the code can be seen on Oda Nobuna (DE). It scales with lower resolutions, so there is no problem with that. Browser-wise there isn&#039;t any problem, either. The code is completely based on wikimedia code. If it doesn&#039;t work on a computer, wikimedia itself doesn&#039;t. The code being &amp;quot;messy&amp;quot; from your point of view is possible, it&#039;s still neat when executed, though. It can be explained what and how it does, what it does. As the sites are either being supervised or &amp;quot;managed&amp;quot; with supervisor approval by me, makes it unproblematic to edit. Major edits, anyway, should be approved by the supervisors in prior, which is in this case either inaban or me. Furthermore the code itself does not &amp;quot;revolutionize&amp;quot;, but &amp;quot;evolutionize&amp;quot; the view system, not displaying any hard break with the usual &amp;quot;freaking ugly wide-screen view&amp;quot; code (quote from forum) of the original version. There is no reason to change the code except for the supervisor being against it or willful. Another matter is that I went through the forums and didn&#039;t find a guideline on how pages &#039;&#039;have&#039;&#039; to look. So I assume basically they have to be mostly similar in looking, but not exactly the same (as example Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei running without any volume covers). Your problem being the cover image being too close to the chapter titles can be edited, by the way. The distance between the chapter titles and the image is flexible. I just deemed it good-looking this way (so did inaban). I just moved it aside by 100 px to show my point. However, I don&#039;t see any reason to have the picture on the other side of the screen, when it&#039;s related to the volume. If you don&#039;t bother looking at Oda Nobuna (DE): The code manages to show two volumes next to each other (could be any number, but it complicates the code further) and scales with resolution, meaning it breaks the two volumes, which are next to each other, up and puts some under each other. [[User:Cautr|-cautr]] ([[User talk:Cautr|talk]]) 11:39, 24 November 2013 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Well whatever, i lost interest, i stated what i wanted, but this issue is not worth such exaggerating discussion, as it&#039;s a minor one. I&#039;ll look forward to see if the formatting will fix itself if more volumes will be added to the contents. --[[User:Krytyk|Krytyk]] ([[User talk:Krytyk#top|talk]]) 14:48, 24 November 2013 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;===Illustration editing===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
May I know what font did you use for Haganai volume 1 colored illustration?&lt;br /&gt;
Alsso, is there any way to sharpen a resized LQ picture? If not, that what method do you use for replacing the jap text to english ones?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I just saw the image you posted in Code-Zero&#039;s talk page, and by curiosity, I wanted to know which tools did you use in Photoshop. Is it with the Level function, or the Contrast one? Or did you use more than that? [[User:Kira0802|Kira]] ([[User_talk:Kira0802|Talk]]) 18:44, 31 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Well, basicly, first thing is leveling, to level down blacks the way they are supposed to, also i applied a pre-made script (i use it when editing manga) to dedust blacks and whites in the image. That is what i used in that case. If there&#039;s a need i have more tools, scripts, or manual ways to edit images. ;) --[[User:Krytyk|Krytyk]] 19:42, 31 December 2011 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

I don&#039;t use the smart leveling, i think you mean the three eyedroppers tool on the right side of leveling menu. I do it manually on the diagram, so the question doesn&#039;t apply to me :p. Imho you overleveled abit~--[[User:Krytyk|Krytyk]] 12:16, 2 January 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

You keep talking about the new moon, its moonlight and how it shines in the sky, but [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_moon new moon] is precisely the only phase of the moon that doesn&#039;t release moonlight.

I&#039;m not familiar with this system, I assume I can respond this way? No worries I was hoping that it would at least save time for the person that has been fixing them, I assume that is you? Campione_v2_309-310 has also not been fixed, I doubt many people notice unless they check illustrations. I may ask advice of you in the future, and since I&#039;m not adept at using this wikia format could you message me on Batoto (Expers) if you have an account there instead? Feel free to remove this since it messes up your page. ^^; ~ Expers&lt;br /&gt;

It&#039;s fine, i do have a batoto account with the same nickname, apparently those images (unedited) were uploaded after i ran through images up to vol 7, thats why i must&#039;ve missed them, but thanks giving me a head&#039;s up on them.

I&#039;m suprised supervisors allowed such erroneus code to even appear, i&#039;m sure there was a draft rules on how to format the project pages, it&#039;s not a private space for people to test out their inventions -.-, if you can&#039;t find it, request zzhk or any other supervisor to look through it.  --[[User:Krytyk|Krytyk]] ([[User talk:Krytyk#top|talk]]) 17:48, 23 November 2013 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thank you for your constructive and understanding reply. Various people have already seen this and other pages with the code and either approved or at least didn&#039;t object it. It was even considered a possible solution for different problems on another big project on the site. But of course I&#039;ll gladly nag more supervisors to satisfy you. With this said, why don&#039;t you tell me what on my so-called &amp;quot;private space&amp;quot; is &amp;quot;erroneus&amp;quot; about my &amp;quot;invention&amp;quot;? It might help to improve the &amp;quot;erroneus code&amp;quot;. Again, thank you for your understanding. [[User:Cautr|-cautr]] ([[User talk:Cautr|talk]]) 06:59, 24 November 2013 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Well my reply wasn&#039;t the most curtous one, reason being yours, was just rude. Something that works for you and your browser, and it looks good on your browser resolution, settings, addons, isn&#039;t neccessarily something that&#039;s the best solution for everyone. Most of the people just see mess instead, me being an example, having the image nearly overlap with the chapter titles, being the cause of my reaction and editing it. Baka-Tsuki is a portal allowing you to post your translations, a free space, and also free assistance when it comes to editing your translations, to make sure it&#039;s top quality, by dedicated or patrolling editors. But it also has some rules to make sure readability is at it&#039;s best, and it&#039;s neat-and-clean. Best way to ensure everything is as it should be, is to study how supervisors of the major projects did format their pages, examples being zzhk, KuroiHikari, Code-Zero, and their project pages, like HsDxD, Campione or ToAru. --[[User:Krytyk|Krytyk]] ([[User talk:Krytyk#top|talk]]) 10:48, 24 November 2013 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The image being next to the chapter titles is intentional, a better example of the pros of the code can be seen on Oda Nobuna (DE). It scales with lower resolutions, so there is no problem with that. Browser-wise there isn&#039;t any problem, either. The code is completely based on wikimedia code. If it doesn&#039;t work on a computer, wikimedia itself doesn&#039;t. The code being &amp;quot;messy&amp;quot; from your point of view is possible, it&#039;s still neat when executed, though. It can be explained what and how it does, what it does. As the sites are either being supervised or &amp;quot;managed&amp;quot; with supervisor approval by me, makes it unproblematic to edit. Major edits, anyway, should be approved by the supervisors in prior, which is in this case either inaban or me. Furthermore the code itself does not &amp;quot;revolutionize&amp;quot;, but &amp;quot;evolutionize&amp;quot; the view system, not displaying any hard break with the usual &amp;quot;freaking ugly wide-screen view&amp;quot; code (quote from forum) of the original version. There is no reason to change the code except for the supervisor being against it or willful. Another matter is that I went through the forums and didn&#039;t find a guideline on how pages &#039;&#039;have&#039;&#039; to look. So I assume basically they have to be mostly similar in looking, but not exactly the same (as example Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei running without any volume covers). Your problem being the cover image being too close to the chapter titles can be edited, by the way. The distance between the chapter titles and the image is flexible. I just deemed it good-looking this way (so did inaban). I just moved it aside by 100 px to show my point. However, I don&#039;t see any reason to have the picture on the other side of the screen, when it&#039;s related to the volume. If you don&#039;t bother looking at Oda Nobuna (DE): The code manages to show two volumes next to each other (could be any number, but it complicates the code further) and scales with resolution, meaning it breaks the two volumes, which are next to each other, up and puts some under each other. [[User:Cautr|-cautr]] ([[User talk:Cautr|talk]]) 11:39, 24 November 2013 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Well whatever, i lost interest, i stated what i wanted, but this issue is not worth such exaggerating discussion, as it&#039;s a minor one. I&#039;ll look forward to see if the formatting will fix itself if more volumes will be added to the contents. --[[User:Krytyk|Krytyk]] ([[User talk:Krytyk#top|talk]]) 14:48, 24 November 2013 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I understand, in case the suspense is killing you, you can see multi-volume display at [[Ore_no_Kanojo_to_Osananajimi_ga_Shuraba_Sugiru|OreShura]], of course approved by the whole team. [[User:Cautr|-cautr]] ([[User talk:Cautr|talk]]) 14:54, 24 November 2013 (CST)&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;br /&gt;
Joay has given the green light for you to continue with 15, if you want to.--[[User:Teh Ping|Teh Ping]] 10:04, 29 January 2011 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
...All up to you now. I do apologize for not following through what I promised though.--[[User:Teh Ping|Teh Ping]] ([[User talk:Teh Ping|talk]]) 21:11, 12 November 2012 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
You&#039;re given free rein to complete the later volumes (except for NT Vol 2, since I don&#039;t know how many people will be &#039;crazy&#039; enough to do that), including the incomplete ones. The other translators won&#039;t be working on it anyway.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Also, I might recruit you to do some of the earlier volumes (after the later volumes are complete). Nah, just kidding. I&#039;ll prefer that you work on the other side stories first, but that&#039;s your choice.--[[User:Teh Ping|Teh Ping]] 10:14, 22 May 2011 (UCT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I can&#039;t answer you through PM, so I&#039;ll just post this here. I&#039;ve unlocked all the chapters for volume 1, except for prologue and afterword which you did. You can redo the other chapters, including chapter 1 and epilogue which I did. Just remember that people are also complaining about poor translations from 7-13, and I did 7-11. At the worst case scenario, you&#039;ll be asked to retranslate 7-13. (And as for the consistent translations thing, there&#039;s NT1 and NT4.) Bottom line, just tell me what needs rework, and I&#039;ll see if we&#039;ll proceed with the Index retranslations.--[[User:Teh Ping|Teh Ping]] 23:18, 9 May 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For now, I&#039;m really only considering 1 and maybe 12-13 after that. What I&#039;m mainly concerned about are accuracy issues since they can&#039;t be corrected in editing, and from what I&#039;ve seen of your translations, that isn&#039;t really an issue. Also, I&#039;m not really too concerned with the consistency issue for NT. I&#039;m only stressing it with 1 because people have brought it up and because I like the idea of having the 1st book a lot of people read in the series read as nice as possible. [[User:Js06|Js06]] 23:46, 9 May 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Can&#039;t argue with that. Good to have a good start. Ah, and tell those guys on 4chan that I&#039;ll be redoing 12 and 13, starting from June.--[[User:Teh Ping|Teh Ping]] 23:49, 9 May 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hello.  I wanted to check if you are planning to re-translate volume 13 of Index?  I noticed that you indicated on Teh Ping&#039;s talk page that you were intending to re-translate/edit v12-13, and that after finishing v12 you started on the first chapter of v13.  I have been reading through the series and editing the narrative of the older volumes into the past tense.  I will be reaching volume 13 soon, but converting that volume to the past tense would be meaningless if you are planning to do a more thorough edit or a re-translation in the near future.  Thanks for all your translations, [[User:Cthaeh|Cthaeh]] ([[User talk:Cthaeh|talk]]) 19:44, 27 February 2013 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I plan to retranslating Volume 13 eventually. I plan to finish translating Kamachi&#039;s other novels first though, so it might be a few months before I get back to it. [[User:Js06|Js06]] ([[User talk:Js06#top|talk]]) 19:48, 27 February 2013 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hello, I am planning to do an edit through all chapters of Index for consistency in word choice, formatting, and terminology in the next few weeks.  My proposed changes are listed on [[User_talk:Cthaeh|my talk page]] if you&#039;d like to look them over. In particular, I&#039;d appreciate it if you could look at the first collapsible box (&amp;quot;Major edits&amp;quot;) when you get a chance, as it contains quite a few things that I could use your help or advice on.  Or let me know if there are any other changes you&#039;d like me to make to take advantage of the fact I&#039;m editing the entire series at once.

&lt;br /&gt;
Thank you for your help and comments.  I have rearranged the list to emphasize the last few things I could still use help on (at the top of the &amp;quot;Major Edits&amp;quot; box).  One place I&#039;d like your opinion on in particular is whether or not to change the capitalization of terms such as ITEM (vs Item). --[[User:Cthaeh|Cthaeh]] ([[User talk:Cthaeh|talk]]) 19:30, 30 August 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

== Square Brackts for [GROUP]? ==&lt;br /&gt;
Hey Js06. I&#039;ve been editing the previously-translated parts of Volume 15, and I was wondering: Joay left a lot of terms in brackets like [GROUP] and the like. Should I just remove all of those? Also, if you can, please check some sentences that I&#039;ve commented on to make sure they stay close enough to the original: I was kinda grasping at straws when trying to make them make sense in English. [[User:CarVac|CarVac]] 21:49, 25 February 2011 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The brackets around GROUP were probably meant to emulate the Japanese-style quotation marks 『』 used in the novels, but they aren&#039;t really necessary. The Japanese like to put things in quotation marks to distinguish them in the same way capitalizing the word is sometimes used in English (e.g. Esper names like Meltdowner and AIM Stalker are put in quotes in the novels.) I used to puts things in quotes excessively in my translations because I was copying the Japanese usage, but I stopped recently.&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;ll look over the changes you mentioned later today. Thanks for your work.  --[[User:Js06|Js06]] 22:23, 25 February 2011 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

Hey JS06, I know you can translate whatever you want, but why did u &amp;quot;jump&amp;quot; to SS2 so suddenly?Just curiosity. Thanks in advance.  --[[User:186.204.5.233|186.204.5.233]] 14:21, 27 February 2011 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
What do you mean? All that isn&#039;t done between 15 and SS2 is 16&#039;s epilogue which someone else is working on.  --[[User:Js06|Js06]] 20:04, 27 February 2011 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
lol, that&#039;s true, haha. I thought I saw 17 and 18 before it. Must be crazy.  --[[User:186.204.5.233|186.204.5.233]] 12:29, 28 February 2011 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Present Tenses vs. Past Tense? ==&lt;br /&gt;
Looking at your SS2 translations, I realized that you&#039;re doing them in past tense as opposed to present tense like you use in the other novels. Is the original material in past tense, or did you decide to start using more past tense? I do understand that the stories seem to have occurred before volume 16; is that why they&#039;re in past tense? It sounds more natural this way, but do we need to keep consistency with the other novels? [[User:CarVac|CarVac]] 16:51, 1 March 2011 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
What? I&#039;ve always used the past tense in my translations here. --[[User:Js06|Js06]] 17:09, 1 March 2011 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Whoops! Sorry. I&#039;ve been editing the other portions of volume 15 too long, and they&#039;re all blurring together in my head. Never mind then. I guess I should put those in past tense to match? (argh; so much work!) [[User:CarVac|CarVac]] 17:18, 1 March 2011 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I thought that we were to aim for present tense usage and only use past tense where necessary? ([[To_Aru_Majutsu_no_Index:Names_and_Terminology_Guideline#Narrative_Tenses]])&lt;br /&gt;

I was looking through some of Haimura Kiyotaka&#039;s official artwork and I could be wrong but I spotted an image that looks like its part of another side story (http://railgun0aria.pixnet.net/album/photo/142464681). Tried to find more about it with little luck, was hoping you tell whether it&#039;s part of a story or just an illustration. Thanks for everything you&#039;re the best!&lt;br /&gt;

I just wanted to thank you for your work on heavy object. To be honest, I like it more than the index series because it seems to be focused on one directions, whereas index has tons and tons. --[[User:Catchfraze|Catchfraze]] 11:28, 20 June 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

Hi there. I&#039;m translating Ore no Imouto vol 4 chapter 1. Is there by any chance that you got the Japanese version of this volume available ? My source is a chinese&#039;s translation, so lots of word/sentense is lost&lt;br /&gt;

Hello Js06! :)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m [mailto:dorothy@marheavenj.net Dorothy], nice to meet you!&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m sorry to bother (and forgive me for my bad English), I&#039;m writing because I have a question about Kakine Teitoku (from Toaru Majutsu no Index vol.15)&#039;s phrase...&lt;br /&gt;
I was updating a site I dedicated to [http://www.marheavenj.net/mischievous/ him] and writing his profile, I found a difficult...&lt;br /&gt;
The phrase is ムカついたかよ、チンピラ , so, could &amp;quot;mukatsuita&amp;quot; be intended as &amp;quot;you pissed me off&amp;quot;? I always found it translated as &amp;quot;that hurt&amp;quot;, but isn&#039;t it more like &amp;quot;You offended me&amp;quot; that &amp;quot;you pissed me off?&amp;quot;? I&#039;m confused about it... and I&#039;m not an expert of Japanese, so I prefered to ask to you! &amp;gt;_&amp;lt; Thank you so much for your job, you really are a manna from heaven!! :) 1:22, 08 June, 2012.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You are correct. ムカついた is the past tense of the verb ムカつく which (in common usage) means &amp;quot;to be irritated&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;to be pissed off&amp;quot;. - [[User:Js06|Js06]] 19:34, 7 June 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Hi Js06, thanks for your translation of Heavy Object. For volume 3 chapter 2, someone changed the value of the distance to the UAV from 1900m to 2900m, so I would like to ask if you can double check if the new value is the correct value. Thank you. :D [[User:Zakashi|Zakashi]] 04:44, 22 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thanks for the heads up. This was my mistake, though. The text clearly says 2900. I must have either misread it or mistyped it. [[User:Js06|Js06]] 13:25, 22 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hello. I guess it&#039;s about time, the progress has has reached that far, so... Would you like me to create a Heavy Object Nav template like I have for many other projects?

&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;ve implemented the [[Template:HEAVYOBJECT Nav|new nav template]] and optimized your text for the web (thus reducing total size of the pages). Now with the new template the navigation has levelled up (it&#039;ll be much smoother now) and with the removal of all that waste space the pages will load much faster.

&lt;br /&gt;
Hey Js06. I have a request. Can I change the formatting of the &amp;quot;(whisper/mutter)&amp;quot; to &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:DimGray&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;quot;whisper/mutter&amp;quot;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; or &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:DarkSlateGray&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;quot;whisper/mutter&amp;quot;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;. The format is better that way since the DimGray or DarkSlateGray color gives the feeling that the person is speaking in a low voice as compared to the normal black color. Plus, brackets inside speech marks is somehow wierd. So, can I? [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  09:57, 19 September 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you like. I&#039;m just copying the format Kamachi uses. [[User:Js06|Js06]] ([[User talk:Js06#top|talk]]) 16:34, 19 September 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If that&#039;s the format Kamachi uses, I&#039;d recommend it not be changed. --[[User:Pryun|Pryun]] - [[User_talk:Pryun|Talk]] 17:44, 19 September 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Yeah but english never puts brackets in speech marks. Normally they &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;smallify&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; the text but the readers don&#039;t like it when I try that, so I thought this would be the next best thing. Don&#039;t you agree? [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  20:52, 19 September 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Another option would be to use a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Font_family_%28HTML%29#Generic_fonts different font] but there is no guarantee that everyone will have that font, unless it&#039;s a default font installed with the OS. Dulling the color is the best option. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  22:15, 19 September 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The best option is respecting the choices made by Js06 himself, which he chose to follow author&#039;s format. And thank you very much Js06, for your great contributions towards B-T. -- [[User:BeginnerXP|BeginnerXP]] ([[User_talk:BeginnerXP|Talk]]) 01:51, 20 September 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
First let him decide, please. If he wants it to stay as is then that&#039;s fine. I will respect his wishes. BTW, if you two (Pryun and BeginnerXP) are interested in Heavy Object then help out by translating.

Besides I thought the following of the author&#039;s format was only for em-dashes(—). I don&#039;t think we need to completely go overboard for everything. Please don&#039;t do that. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  02:59, 20 September 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

The Japanese don&#039;t often put brackets in speech marks either, and I&#039;ve yet to read books which smallify text(unless you can give me an example?). Actually, I&#039;ll probably write to the publisher scolding them for spoiling my eyes if they did, and not ever buy books published by them ever&amp;lt;!--this redundancy is on purpose--&amp;gt; again. Though I&#039;m interested in reading it, I don&#039;t even have time to do so at the moment, so asking for translations is......&amp;lt;!--This incomplete sentence is on purpose--&amp;gt; --[[User:Pryun|Pryun]] - [[User_talk:Pryun|Talk]] 05:05, 20 September 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just my personal opinion here as a reader, I think the current format the translator uses is good enough, I think that most readers can easily get the context of the speech being thought, whispers etc. from inferring or the context has already been mentioned in the text. [[User:Zakashi|Zakashi]] ([[User talk:Zakashi|talk]]) 05:16, 20 September 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
No actually, I&#039;ve read it and there are parts where there is no mention that it is going to be a whisper/mutter except for the brackets. But Js06 is the one to decide, since he&#039;s the one translating it. If he has no problem with it then it&#039;s fine.

&lt;br /&gt;
Js i&#039;m just letting you know that I will be undoing most of the changes that Zero has implemented such as muttering/whisper&#039;s into gray and etc. since there seems to be a consensus among the fans for the English translations to match kamachi&#039;s style in the Japanese version. -[[User:Hiro Hayase|Hiro Hayase]] ([[User talk:Hiro Hayase|talk]]) 13:52, 20 January 2013 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

Thanks for the update ^_^ few things i wanted to discuss. first was in part3 when wal was talking with frigg and frey... definitely there is a problem with wal proclaiming she can go forever without doing anything indecent but did you guys notice this implies she (ha very casual about it to) plans on being with him &amp;quot;forever&amp;quot; awww waltraute is so adorable XD next problem is part7 seven when loki says “Ha ha ha. Sorry, but your skill is useless against a male god.” with no specifics. RIGHT THERE! RIGHT THERE I&#039;VE DECIDED TO IGNORE ALL YOUR OPINIONS!! definitely means the boy has a mysterious charm about him that affects the female gods. hence with loki&#039;s proclamation he can not deny the fact he noticed the boys &amp;quot;skill&amp;quot; (charm) and thus IT HAD A SIGHT AFFECT ON LOKI, HE DEFINITELY SWINGS THAT WAY...

== A question ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
hi Js06&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
after of several months of studyng japanese finally i wanna buy a light novel, but i don&#039;t know if my kanji knowledge is enought like to read a index light novel (actually i only know more or less of 1300 kanji) so my question is, what is the aproximate number of kanji necessaries to understand  the average light novel?&lt;br /&gt;
i hope what with your experience you can tell me a proximity.&lt;br /&gt;
also i like to give you all my gratefulness for you excellent work at the novel who gave me the motivation to study japanese.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unfortunately, I have no idea what to tell you. Due to the way I learned Japanese, # of kanji known means nothing to me. I couldn&#039;t tell you how many I know or how many you need to know for a LN. You say you have been studying Japanese for several months, so my guess is you are not ready. It took me several years to be proficient enough to read a LN comfortably. Still, the only way to know for sure is to get one and try reading it, so I would suggest starting with one and seeing how well you do.

===Thought Dialogue===&lt;br /&gt;
For Ichiban Ushiro no Daimaou, I noticed there were a lot of hyphens before internal thought dialogues. I was kind of wondering if they were necessary - I thought they might be something that the Japanese text used to mark internal speech, but since in English italics (and sometimes single-quotes) are sufficient, I was wondering if you think it&#039;d make a difference if I deleted them. -[[User:AKAAkira|Akira]] ([[User talk:AKAAkira|talk]]) 03:29, 23 May 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

But if you are looking for another project please do keep in mind mahou sensou or 俺がヒロインを助けすぎて世界がリトル黙示録!?. i really like the synopsis of those two books.

== Regarding Keywords in Index Volumes 9 &amp;amp; 10: 天文台 or Belvedere ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hello Js06. I have noticed that the current translations of Index Volumes 9 &amp;amp; 10 have the keywords of the arc literally translated instead of the part that is spoken. i.e. The base kanji is translated instead of the kana at the top. e.g. 追跡封じ is translated as &#039;tracking sealer&#039; but is spoken as Route Disturb. This also goes for Shorthand and Croce di Pietro. I will go and fix these in my own time. &lt;br /&gt;
It is easy to find these literally translated terms as they have &#039;apostrophes&#039; around them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the Volume 10 translation, in certain situations the word &#039;observatory&#039; has apostrophes around it as well. Also, Index II episode 12 has the title 天文台, translated as &#039;astronomical observatory&#039; but spoken as Belvedere. If you happen to have a copy, can you tell me if the word Belvedere is used in Volume 10 anywhere instead of observatory? It could explain why the word observatory has apostrophes around it. Or is the title an anime-only thing, with the apostrophes in text only there as an emphasis that the word is being used to describe something specific to the magic ritual.--[[User:OH&amp;amp;#38;S|OH&amp;amp;#38;S]] ([[User talk:OH&amp;amp;#38;S|talk]]) 01:21, 5 August 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

The original novel only uses 天文台 with no furigana. [[User:Js06|Js06]] ([[User talk:Js06#top|talk]]) 11:39, 5 August 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

== New Testament Volume 8 Preview ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dengeki has put up a 55 page preview of volume on their Toaru Summer campaign site. Mind doing something with it here? [http://dc-trial.dengeki.com/toaru/1308toaru_index8/?page=2] Thanks. [[Special:Contributions/108.208.102.9|108.208.102.9]] 08:14, 26 August 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: Couple questions regarding this sentence in the preview: &#039;&#039;Normally, Mikoto might have used her control over massive amounts of magnetism to rip the entire bunch up into the air and shout “Ventura, Ventura!!” while launching it high into the sky.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: Is the phrase &amp;quot;entire bunch&amp;quot; correct? Given the context, it sounded like it was supposed to be &amp;quot;entire bench&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: And &amp;quot;Ventura, Ventura&amp;quot;. I&#039;m wondering if the original Japanese could also be read, &amp;quot;Bentora, Bentora&amp;quot;. Using Google for the latter gets results, as it&#039;s part of some Japanese phrase related to UFOs. [[Special:Contributions/108.208.102.9|108.208.102.9]] 20:15, 27 August 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

== Consultation on Fixing Non-js06-Translated Index Volumes ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hello again js06. I was looking at the earlier Index Volumes (1-13,SS1) and I have found that they are not up to scratch to what one would expect of a light novel translation (obviously not including your translations). A lot of the terms have been translated literally like in my above topic. There is little consistency in the terms used. Worst of all there are plenty of sentences throughout the volumes which are entirely capitalised. I am planning on starting from Volume 1 and try and fix things (including incorrect terminology and capitalised sentences) sometime later in the year. However, I do not actually have a physical copy of the earlier volumes so I have to rely on other methods of checking the original japanese (Manga Raws, Anime and Kanji on the Index Wikia).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I have found that the &#039;&#039;&#039;Toaru Majutsu no Index no Subete Glossary&#039;&#039;&#039; is a good reference for translation. However, aside from the already translated and modified version on the wiki, I dont have access to the original scans so I can double check the translations and see which parts have been modified or reinterpreted by the wiki. &#039;&#039;&#039;Do you happen to have a link to these scans?&#039;&#039;&#039; (There was a statement on the page that you were the one who translated it.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lastly, I will inevitably run into problems when fixing up the translations and will require a more experienced translator with an actual copy to answer some more volume-specific questions (like the Belvedere issue above). &#039;&#039;&#039;Is it possible to consult you? If so, where would the best place to consult you be?&#039;&#039;&#039; Since I may build up a lot of small volume-specific questions, this talk page may not be ideal. &#039;&#039;&#039;Is there a better way of sending you questions on this matter?&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If this is all too much of a hassle, please let me know. But the glossary scans would be incredibly helpful.--[[User:OH&amp;amp;#38;S|OH&amp;amp;#38;S]] ([[User talk:OH&amp;amp;#38;S|talk]]) 06:59, 1 September 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

Sadly, I see that you repeatedly write the Tres Españian siblings [first] surname as &amp;quot;Valdes&amp;quot;, while the correct writing would have been either &amp;quot;Valdez&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;Valdés&amp;quot; (&amp;quot;Valdés&amp;quot; in this case, since the historical figure they are named after is an official from the Armada Invencible whose name is recorded as &amp;quot;Pedro de Valdés&amp;quot;).--[[User:Kemm|Kemm]] ([[User talk:Kemm|talk]]) 05:23, 6 October 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

 &lt;br /&gt;
You&#039;re given free rein to complete the later volumes (except for NT Vol 2, since I don&#039;t know how many people will be &#039;crazy&#039; enough to do that), including the incomplete ones. The other translators won&#039;t be working on it anyway.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Also, I might recruit you to do some of the earlier volumes (after the later volumes are complete). Nah, just kidding. I&#039;ll prefer that you work on the other side stories first, but that&#039;s your choice.--[[User:Teh Ping|Teh Ping]] 10:14, 22 May 2011 (UCT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I can&#039;t answer you through PM, so I&#039;ll just post this here. I&#039;ve unlocked all the chapters for volume 1, except for prologue and afterword which you did. You can redo the other chapters, including chapter 1 and epilogue which I did. Just remember that people are also complaining about poor translations from 7-13, and I did 7-11. At the worst case scenario, you&#039;ll be asked to retranslate 7-13. (And as for the consistent translations thing, there&#039;s NT1 and NT4.) Bottom line, just tell me what needs rework, and I&#039;ll see if we&#039;ll proceed with the Index retranslations.--[[User:Teh Ping|Teh Ping]] 23:18, 9 May 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For now, I&#039;m really only considering 1 and maybe 12-13 after that. What I&#039;m mainly concerned about are accuracy issues since they can&#039;t be corrected in editing, and from what I&#039;ve seen of your translations, that isn&#039;t really an issue. Also, I&#039;m not really too concerned with the consistency issue for NT. I&#039;m only stressing it with 1 because people have brought it up and because I like the idea of having the 1st book a lot of people read in the series read as nice as possible. [[User:Js06|Js06]] 23:46, 9 May 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

Can&#039;t argue with that. Good to have a good start. Ah, and tell those guys on 4chan that I&#039;ll be redoing 12 and 13, starting from June.--[[User:Teh Ping|Teh Ping]] 23:49, 9 May 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hello.  I wanted to check if you are planning to re-translate volume 13 of Index?  I noticed that you indicated on Teh Ping&#039;s talk page that you were intending to re-translate/edit v12-13, and that after finishing v12 you started on the first chapter of v13.  I have been reading through the series and editing the narrative of the older volumes into the past tense.  I will be reaching volume 13 soon, but converting that volume to the past tense would be meaningless if you are planning to do a more thorough edit or a re-translation in the near future.  Thanks for all your translations, [[User:Cthaeh|Cthaeh]] ([[User talk:Cthaeh|talk]]) 19:44, 27 February 2013 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I plan to retranslating Volume 13 eventually. I plan to finish translating Kamachi&#039;s other novels first though, so it might be a few months before I get back to it. [[User:Js06|Js06]] ([[User talk:Js06#top|talk]]) 19:48, 27 February 2013 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

Hello, I am planning to do an edit through all chapters of Index for consistency in word choice, formatting, and terminology in the next few weeks.  My proposed changes are listed on [[User_talk:Cthaeh|my talk page]] if you&#039;d like to look them over. In particular, I&#039;d appreciate it if you could look at the first collapsible box (&amp;quot;Major edits&amp;quot;) when you get a chance, as it contains quite a few things that I could use your help or advice on.  Or let me know if there are any other changes you&#039;d like me to make to take advantage of the fact I&#039;m editing the entire series at once.

Thank you for your help and comments.  I have rearranged the list to emphasize the last few things I could still use help on (at the top of the &amp;quot;Major Edits&amp;quot; box).  One place I&#039;d like your opinion on in particular is whether or not to change the capitalization of terms such as ITEM (vs Item). --[[User:Cthaeh|Cthaeh]] ([[User talk:Cthaeh|talk]]) 19:30, 30 August 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

== Square Brackts for [GROUP]? ==&lt;br /&gt;
Hey Js06. I&#039;ve been editing the previously-translated parts of Volume 15, and I was wondering: Joay left a lot of terms in brackets like [GROUP] and the like. Should I just remove all of those? Also, if you can, please check some sentences that I&#039;ve commented on to make sure they stay close enough to the original: I was kinda grasping at straws when trying to make them make sense in English. [[User:CarVac|CarVac]] 21:49, 25 February 2011 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The brackets around GROUP were probably meant to emulate the Japanese-style quotation marks 『』 used in the novels, but they aren&#039;t really necessary. The Japanese like to put things in quotation marks to distinguish them in the same way capitalizing the word is sometimes used in English (e.g. Esper names like Meltdowner and AIM Stalker are put in quotes in the novels.) I used to puts things in quotes excessively in my translations because I was copying the Japanese usage, but I stopped recently.&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;ll look over the changes you mentioned later today. Thanks for your work.  --[[User:Js06|Js06]] 22:23, 25 February 2011 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

What do you mean? All that isn&#039;t done between 15 and SS2 is 16&#039;s epilogue which someone else is working on.  --[[User:Js06|Js06]] 20:04, 27 February 2011 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

== Present Tenses vs. Past Tense? ==&lt;br /&gt;
Looking at your SS2 translations, I realized that you&#039;re doing them in past tense as opposed to present tense like you use in the other novels. Is the original material in past tense, or did you decide to start using more past tense? I do understand that the stories seem to have occurred before volume 16; is that why they&#039;re in past tense? It sounds more natural this way, but do we need to keep consistency with the other novels? [[User:CarVac|CarVac]] 16:51, 1 March 2011 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
What? I&#039;ve always used the past tense in my translations here. --[[User:Js06|Js06]] 17:09, 1 March 2011 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Whoops! Sorry. I&#039;ve been editing the other portions of volume 15 too long, and they&#039;re all blurring together in my head. Never mind then. I guess I should put those in past tense to match? (argh; so much work!) [[User:CarVac|CarVac]] 17:18, 1 March 2011 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I thought that we were to aim for present tense usage and only use past tense where necessary? ([[To_Aru_Majutsu_no_Index:Names_and_Terminology_Guideline#Narrative_Tenses]])&lt;br /&gt;

Hi there. I&#039;m translating Ore no Imouto vol 4 chapter 1. Is there by any chance that you got the Japanese version of this volume available ? My source is a chinese&#039;s translation, so lots of word/sentense is lost&lt;br /&gt;

Hello Js06! :)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m [mailto:dorothy@marheavenj.net Dorothy], nice to meet you!&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m sorry to bother (and forgive me for my bad English), I&#039;m writing because I have a question about Kakine Teitoku (from Toaru Majutsu no Index vol.15)&#039;s phrase...&lt;br /&gt;
I was updating a site I dedicated to [http://www.marheavenj.net/mischievous/ him] and writing his profile, I found a difficult...&lt;br /&gt;
The phrase is ムカついたかよ、チンピラ , so, could &amp;quot;mukatsuita&amp;quot; be intended as &amp;quot;you pissed me off&amp;quot;? I always found it translated as &amp;quot;that hurt&amp;quot;, but isn&#039;t it more like &amp;quot;You offended me&amp;quot; that &amp;quot;you pissed me off?&amp;quot;? I&#039;m confused about it... and I&#039;m not an expert of Japanese, so I prefered to ask to you! &amp;gt;_&amp;lt; Thank you so much for your job, you really are a manna from heaven!! :) 1:22, 08 June, 2012.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You are correct. ムカついた is the past tense of the verb ムカつく which (in common usage) means &amp;quot;to be irritated&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;to be pissed off&amp;quot;. - [[User:Js06|Js06]] 19:34, 7 June 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Hi Js06, thanks for your translation of Heavy Object. For volume 3 chapter 2, someone changed the value of the distance to the UAV from 1900m to 2900m, so I would like to ask if you can double check if the new value is the correct value. Thank you. :D [[User:Zakashi|Zakashi]] 04:44, 22 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thanks for the heads up. This was my mistake, though. The text clearly says 2900. I must have either misread it or mistyped it. [[User:Js06|Js06]] 13:25, 22 July 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

Hello. I guess it&#039;s about time, the progress has has reached that far, so... Would you like me to create a Heavy Object Nav template like I have for many other projects?

&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;ve implemented the [[Template:HEAVYOBJECT Nav|new nav template]] and optimized your text for the web (thus reducing total size of the pages). Now with the new template the navigation has levelled up (it&#039;ll be much smoother now) and with the removal of all that waste space the pages will load much faster.

&lt;br /&gt;
Hey Js06. I have a request. Can I change the formatting of the &amp;quot;(whisper/mutter)&amp;quot; to &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:DimGray&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;quot;whisper/mutter&amp;quot;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt; or &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;color:DarkSlateGray&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;quot;whisper/mutter&amp;quot;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;. The format is better that way since the DimGray or DarkSlateGray color gives the feeling that the person is speaking in a low voice as compared to the normal black color. Plus, brackets inside speech marks is somehow wierd. So, can I? [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  09:57, 19 September 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you like. I&#039;m just copying the format Kamachi uses. [[User:Js06|Js06]] ([[User talk:Js06#top|talk]]) 16:34, 19 September 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If that&#039;s the format Kamachi uses, I&#039;d recommend it not be changed. --[[User:Pryun|Pryun]] - [[User_talk:Pryun|Talk]] 17:44, 19 September 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Yeah but english never puts brackets in speech marks. Normally they &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;smallify&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; the text but the readers don&#039;t like it when I try that, so I thought this would be the next best thing. Don&#039;t you agree?

&lt;br /&gt;
Another option would be to use a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Font_family_%28HTML%29#Generic_fonts different font] but there is no guarantee that everyone will have that font, unless it&#039;s a default font installed with the OS. Dulling the color is the best option. [[User:Zero2001|Zero2001]] - [[User_talk:Zero2001|Talk]] -  22:15, 19 September 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

The Japanese don&#039;t often put brackets in speech marks either, and I&#039;ve yet to read books which smallify text(unless you can give me an example?).

&lt;br /&gt;
Just my personal opinion here as a reader, I think the current format the translator uses is good enough, I think that most readers can easily get the context of the speech being thought, whispers etc. from inferring or the context has already been mentioned in the text. [[User:Zakashi|Zakashi]] ([[User talk:Zakashi|talk]]) 05:16, 20 September 2012 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
No actually, I&#039;ve read it and there are parts where there is no mention that it is going to be a whisper/mutter except for the brackets. But Js06 is the one to decide, since he&#039;s the one translating it. If he has no problem with it then it&#039;s fine.

Js i&#039;m just letting you know that I will be undoing most of the changes that Zero has implemented such as muttering/whisper&#039;s into gray and etc. since there seems to be a consensus among the fans for the English translations to match kamachi&#039;s style in the Japanese version. -[[User:Hiro Hayase|Hiro Hayase]] ([[User talk:Hiro Hayase|talk]]) 13:52, 20 January 2013 (CST)&lt;br /&gt;

Thanks for the update ^_^ few things i wanted to discuss. first was in part3 when wal was talking with frigg and frey... definitely there is a problem with wal proclaiming she can go forever without doing anything indecent but did you guys notice this implies she (ha very casual about it to) plans on being with him &amp;quot;forever&amp;quot; awww waltraute is so adorable XD next problem is part7 seven when loki says “Ha ha ha. Sorry, but your skill is useless against a male god.” with no specifics. RIGHT THERE! RIGHT THERE I&#039;VE DECIDED TO IGNORE ALL YOUR OPINIONS!! definitely means the boy has a mysterious charm about him that affects the female gods. hence with loki&#039;s proclamation he can not deny the fact he noticed the boys &amp;quot;skill&amp;quot; (charm) and thus IT HAD A SIGHT AFFECT ON LOKI, HE DEFINITELY SWINGS THAT WAY...

&lt;br /&gt;
hi Js06&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
after of several months of studyng japanese finally i wanna buy a light novel, but i don&#039;t know if my kanji knowledge is enought like to read a index light novel (actually i only know more or less of 1300 kanji) so my question is, what is the aproximate number of kanji necessaries to understand  the average light novel?&lt;br /&gt;
i hope what with your experience you can tell me a proximity.&lt;br /&gt;
also i like to give you all my gratefulness for you excellent work at the novel who gave me the motivation to study japanese.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unfortunately, I have no idea what to tell you. Due to the way I learned Japanese, # of kanji known means nothing to me. I couldn&#039;t tell you how many I know or how many you need to know for a LN. You say you have been studying Japanese for several months, so my guess is you are not ready. It took me several years to be proficient enough to read a LN comfortably. Still, the only way to know for sure is to get one and try reading it, so I would suggest starting with one and seeing how well you do.

===Thought Dialogue===&lt;br /&gt;
For Ichiban Ushiro no Daimaou, I noticed there were a lot of hyphens before internal thought dialogues. I was kind of wondering if they were necessary - I thought they might be something that the Japanese text used to mark internal speech, but since in English italics (and sometimes single-quotes) are sufficient, I was wondering if you think it&#039;d make a difference if I deleted them. -[[User:AKAAkira|Akira]] ([[User talk:AKAAkira|talk]]) 03:29, 23 May 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

But if you are looking for another project please do keep in mind mahou sensou or 俺がヒロインを助けすぎて世界がリトル黙示録!?. i really like the synopsis of those two books.

I have noticed that the current translations of Index Volumes 9 &amp;amp; 10 have the keywords of the arc literally translated instead of the part that is spoken. i.e. The base kanji is translated instead of the kana at the top. e.g. 追跡封じ is translated as &#039;tracking sealer&#039; but is spoken as Route Disturb. This also goes for Shorthand and Croce di Pietro. I will go and fix these in my own time. &lt;br /&gt;
It is easy to find these literally translated terms as they have &#039;apostrophes&#039; around them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the Volume 10 translation, in certain situations the word &#039;observatory&#039; has apostrophes around it as well. Also, Index II episode 12 has the title 天文台, translated as &#039;astronomical observatory&#039; but spoken as Belvedere. If you happen to have a copy, can you tell me if the word Belvedere is used in Volume 10 anywhere instead of observatory? It could explain why the word observatory has apostrophes around it. Or is the title an anime-only thing, with the apostrophes in text only there as an emphasis that the word is being used to describe something specific to the magic ritual.--[[User:OH&amp;amp;#38;S|OH&amp;amp;#38;S]] ([[User talk:OH&amp;amp;#38;S|talk]]) 01:21, 5 August 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The original novel only uses 天文台 with no furigana. [[User:Js06|Js06]] ([[User talk:Js06#top|talk]]) 11:39, 5 August 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hm... so it was an anime-only thing? Thanks for the clarification. Also, is there any better place to bring up any translation queries with you other than your talk page?--[[User:OH&amp;amp;#38;S|OH&amp;amp;#38;S]] ([[User talk:OH&amp;amp;#38;S|talk]]) 21:30, 5 August 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

== New Testament Volume 8 Preview ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dengeki has put up a 55 page preview of volume on their Toaru Summer campaign site. Mind doing something with it here? [http://dc-trial.dengeki.com/toaru/1308toaru_index8/?page=2] Thanks. [[Special:Contributions/108.208.102.9|108.208.102.9]] 08:14, 26 August 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: Couple questions regarding this sentence in the preview: &#039;&#039;Normally, Mikoto might have used her control over massive amounts of magnetism to rip the entire bunch up into the air and shout “Ventura, Ventura!!” while launching it high into the sky.&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: Is the phrase &amp;quot;entire bunch&amp;quot; correct? Given the context, it sounded like it was supposed to be &amp;quot;entire bench&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
: And &amp;quot;Ventura, Ventura&amp;quot;. I&#039;m wondering if the original Japanese could also be read, &amp;quot;Bentora, Bentora&amp;quot;. Using Google for the latter gets results, as it&#039;s part of some Japanese phrase related to UFOs. [[Special:Contributions/108.208.102.9|108.208.102.9]] 20:15, 27 August 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;Ventura, Ventura&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;Bentora, Bentora&amp;quot; is an Urusei Yatsura reference and it can be written either way. [[User:Js06|Js06]] ([[User talk:Js06#top|talk]]) 21:04, 27 August 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

== Consultation on Fixing Non-js06-Translated Index Volumes ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hello again js06. I was looking at the earlier Index Volumes (1-13,SS1) and I have found that they are not up to scratch to what one would expect of a light novel translation (obviously not including your translations). A lot of the terms have been translated literally like in my above topic. There is little consistency in the terms used. Worst of all there are plenty of sentences throughout the volumes which are entirely capitalised. I am planning on starting from Volume 1 and try and fix things (including incorrect terminology and capitalised sentences) sometime later in the year. However, I do not actually have a physical copy of the earlier volumes so I have to rely on other methods of checking the original japanese (Manga Raws, Anime and Kanji on the Index Wikia).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I have found that the &#039;&#039;&#039;Toaru Majutsu no Index no Subete Glossary&#039;&#039;&#039; is a good reference for translation. However, aside from the already translated and modified version on the wiki, I dont have access to the original scans so I can double check the translations and see which parts have been modified or reinterpreted by the wiki. &#039;&#039;&#039;Do you happen to have a link to these scans?&#039;&#039;&#039; (There was a statement on the page that you were the one who translated it.)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Lastly, I will inevitably run into problems when fixing up the translations and will require a more experienced translator with an actual copy to answer some more volume-specific questions (like the Belvedere issue above). &#039;&#039;&#039;Is it possible to consult you? If so, where would the best place to consult you be?&#039;&#039;&#039; Since I may build up a lot of small volume-specific questions, this talk page may not be ideal. &#039;&#039;&#039;Is there a better way of sending you questions on this matter?&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If this is all too much of a hassle, please let me know. But the glossary scans would be incredibly helpful.--[[User:OH&amp;amp;#38;S|OH&amp;amp;#38;S]] ([[User talk:OH&amp;amp;#38;S|talk]]) 06:59, 1 September 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;

== Thanks for Ichiban Ushiro no Daimaou! ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Js06, thank you so much for translating daimaou! i deeply appreciate it! btw, how many chapters can you do per month? i just can&#039;t... wait... to continue reading ! and lastly, i encourage you to keep doing your best, because many readers will be so happy! THUMBS UP!  (i still can&#039;t create an account in this site for now because of my i.p. adrress, but i surely will) XD&lt;br /&gt;

== Horizon ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
First of all: thanks for your great wirk. Secondly: Good work with the finding of the correct writing for most of the historical figures. Sadly, I see that you repeatedly write the Tres Españian siblings [first] surname as &amp;quot;Valdes&amp;quot;, while the correct writing would have been either &amp;quot;Valdez&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;Valdés&amp;quot; (&amp;quot;Valdés&amp;quot; in this case, since the historical figure they are named after is an official from the Armada Invencible whose name is recorded as &amp;quot;Pedro de Valdés&amp;quot;).--[[User:Kemm|Kemm]] ([[User talk:Kemm|talk]]) 05:23, 6 October 2013 (CDT)&lt;br /&gt;
