==Hoping for an answer==

Wrote to you a while back. If you've read the message, can you please give some kind of answer, so I know that you didn't miss it. If you did miss it, here's the copypaste:

It'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't have time or don't feel like it, I would undestand.--[[User:idiffer|<span style="color:darkred;font:bold 10pt kristen itc">idif</span>]][[User talk:idiffer|<span style="color:darkblack;font:bold 10pt kristen itc">fer</span>]] 14:44, 9 February 2015 (CST)

But this could be left for later. the most urgent question is from vol 3 chapter 2:

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's more like yarn, thread or rope (very flexible). who is right?
: Sorry about that -- I was just being lazy. Anyway, regarding your question: the text just says "[http://dictionary.goo.ne.jp/leaf/je2/4074/m1u/%E7%B3%B8/ 糸]", which can be both in my view, so it'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 ==

Hi, first of all, I'd like to thank you so much for the awesome translation you did of Hakomari, it looks professional and polished, well done! I'd like to ask if you're going to continue it if more volumes of Hakomari come out.

Now, for my main subject. Since you seem to be quite active, I'm sure you've noticed that an [[Audio_Recordings|Audio Novel section]] has opened up in the sidebar. That'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'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. 

Therefore, as respectfully as possible, I'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. 

Again, I love your work, and thanks for reading! - [[User:Defan752|Defan752]]([[User talk:Defan752|talk]]) - 3:40 PM, July 8, 2014 (UTC+8)

: Hey, great to hear that you like Hakomari. I'm definitely going to translate the last volume once it comes out.
: Regarding the audio novel projects; yes, I'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)

== Asking permission for creating the main Page Gekkou (Indonesian) and Translate it ==

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.

And so, to the main reason, I'm asking permission to creating the main page for Gekkou in Indonesian, and translate it, because I don't know what should I do, I just make it, then submit it, but forget to ask Permission, so you're the one that come to my mind, though.
So, just you know, I'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)

== Regarding Gekkou ==

Gekkou:The Stubborn Will of the Crescent Moon

By any change, did anyone sudmit you the japanese version on Gekkou:The Stubborn Will of the Crescent Moon? Just wondering...
: Nah, but there were a few people that offered to translate the Chinese version, although I haven't heard of them ever since. Nockgeneer (the guy who posted the introduction) might still be at it, though, since it's only been two months since he started. [[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] ([[User talk:EusthEnoptEron#top|talk]]) 06:23, 29 June 2013 (CDT)

== Asking permission for creating a wikia page for Tsukumodo Antique Shop ==

Hi,
let me first thank you for all the wonderful translations that you've done till date, and also for the one's that you'll be doing in future.

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's only if you are okay with it and if it's not fine with you then I will delete everything that I'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.
Again, thanks for all the translation works.

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'm pretty slow and might screw up a little. If possible, drop by the page sometime.

== Permission for "Utsuro no Hako to Zero no Maria (French)"  ==

Maybe it's a little late to ask for the permission now, since the page is already made (I'm sorryyyyyy ><), but can I make a french translated version Of Hakomari ?  I planed to translate your version, since nobody did it for those who can't read english ><
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

: Heyho - glad you enjoyed it and are tackling a French translation! (And hey, maybe that'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)
:Also, don't worry: actually, Misogi already asked me for permission. Besides, I don't really mind what my translations are used for. :D Just ask me if anything's unclear to you.

YAY ! Thanks a lot ! I'll work hard ;)

Thanks for your remarks on the Project Page, they are correct. - [[User:Misogi|Misogi]] 17:30, 15 January 2014 (GMT+1)

==Tsukumodo TL help + translate extension==
hi, it's me again. couldn't find you on your irc, so gonna ask here. can you pls clarify a few lines in tsukumodo vol 1 ch 4?

"Mm? Well, if you only open it, sure."

(meaning? that she opens it and does nothing else? is this his joke?)
: While she asks in the traditional sense, he only means to say that she "may take a look" because he doesn't actually want to give it to her / wants it back later.

''It'll be time for work in no time if I just hang around in my crumbly 9 square feet apartment.''

(is he deliberately understating the number of feet?)
: Whoops. Pretty bad mistake on my part. It's supposed to be 80 square feet, or 4 1/2 tatami mats if you want to keep the Japanese counter-part.
And are you by any chance planning on using the TL extension on tsukumodo? 

--[[User:idiffer|<span style="color:darkred;font:bold 10pt kristen itc">idif</span>]][[User talk:idiffer|<span style="color:darkblack;font:bold 10pt kristen itc">fer</span>]] 14:39, 17 April 2014 (CDT)
: Nah, at the moment I have no plans of using the extension. As far as I know, it's not ready for production use anyway. [[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] ([[User talk:EusthEnoptEron#top|talk]]) 17:50, 17 April 2014 (CDT)

tsukumodo vol 1 ch 3:

I wasn't going to remember that face forever. 

(are you sure it's not the opposite? was going to?)--[[User:idiffer|<span style="color:darkred;font:bold 10pt kristen itc">idif</span>]][[User talk:idiffer|<span style="color:darkblack;font:bold 10pt kristen itc">fer</span>]] 07:26, 25 April 2014 (CDT)
: Good catch. I probably tried to phrase it by using "forget" first, but then changed my mind and got things mixed up. Anyway, the correct translation is something along the lines of "Never would I forget the face that he'd shown me then." [[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] ([[User talk:EusthEnoptEron#top|talk]]) 10:37, 25 April 2014 (CDT)

same chapter:

But there are people who have to rely on such a superstition (can't talk about others).

(the thing in the parenthesis - what is it? a reminder for herself? cause she already talked about others...) 
: <i>He</i> is just noting (in an ironic tone) that he resorted to that superstition himself.
If you do, one of my important part-timers might come to a bad end."

(like in a visual novel?)
: It works, but it's not an explicit reference to a bad end. A more accurate translation would be that she'd lose one of her part-timers, or that one of them would die.
I prepared chicken sauteed with a potato salad, 

(so the chicken is cooked together with the salad in the same frying pan?)
: Dammit, mixed French with English. Should be "chicken sautée" or "sauteed chicken", and in addition to that dish a potato salad.
"Note?"

(doeas this line belong to towako or saki?)
: From the context, I assume it belongs to Saki.

btw, is it alright to use your talk page like this or do u want to move this somewhere else? i'm sure i'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't been active in a long time + i've read he uses machine translations.--[[User:idiffer|<span style="color:darkred;font:bold 10pt kristen itc">idif</span>]][[User talk:idiffer|<span style="color:darkblack;font:bold 10pt kristen itc">fer</span>]] 15:50, 25 April 2014 (CDT)
: Actually, I don'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'll look into the matter after that. At any rate, I'll make sure to give his translation a thorough TLC pass to make sure it's correct.

Thanks for your work on Utsuro no Hako. I'm enjoying it.

Want to second that emotion! Thanks so much EEE!

What? Who? When did you translate this and why haven't I noticed it from the beginning? This is an excellent series and you translated an entire volume a month...that's ungodly. I just wanted to write here to say how awesome it's been reading this series (just finished the first book--I hated the way the author had me with the 'owner' mystery because of his cheap shot) and that I seriously congratulate you on your translations. Sure, they aren't perfect, but you clearly tell this wonderful story, and I'm definitely glad I read it. I truly hope you continue translating ^^. 

Totally not trying to butter you up into translating more,

~Blaster

:Thanks for the positive messages Blaster and anon IPs. :D I'm really glad you guys enjoyed the story as much as I did, which is what drove me to translate the whole thing. Though, I'm still not sure just how readable I can translate an already quite complicated book like this. But for now, I think I'll keep translating at least until volume 4 (since volume 3 is my favorite one and hell of a cliff-hanger). [[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] 17:53, 25 March 2010 (UTC)

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. I even figured out the ending of the 'Game of Idleness' early! God, I think that was the only thing I figured out early. I mean, really. How hard is this book to catch on early anyway? :/ Anyway, thank you so much! Haha, I'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. 

Thanks again,

== Edits ==

For Utsuro no Hako to Zero no Maria, why edit "fufu" to "hehe"? The former is more of a sinister/evil strange laugh, and it doesn't translate to "hehe". For this series, that kind of laugh is fitting of the characters. I hope you didn't change all the fufu to hehe in your translations! (including Dantalian no Shoka) [[User:Imagker|Imagker]] 19:38, 24 August 2010 (UTC)

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

In anime/manga/games/LN/etc, "fufu/fu fu fu" is normally associated with maniacal characters or evil to smugged, cold, sadistic, just plain amused characters who are devising a plan, etc. It'd be betraying their archetype design if we had them say hehe or something else entirely. I'll go through each chapter to see if there are any more changes and will revert them back to fufu... If that'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)
:Well, okay then, I guess. There are some instances in volume 4 - I'll change them. [[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] 16:32, 26 August 2010 (UTC)

Fufu shall be evil laughing? I wouldnt understand that... --[[User:Darklor|Darklor]] 19:55, 26 August 2010 (UTC)

Hmmm, as far as i know it´s more accurate to say that is a "meaningful laugh", 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 "meaningul", 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...) 
[[User:Caramu|Caramu]] 20:17, 26 August 2010 (UTC)

:Yeah, and "hihi" "hehe" "huhu" "haha" "hrhr" just all feel off. Fufu doesn't look good, but I think it gets across the correct meaning at least. [[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] 21:20, 26 August 2010 (UTC)

why don'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's thought that weren't in the novel.
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's just my opinion;i hope i didn't offend you.
:Aah, I forgot about those. I'll add them when I have time. Regarding the edits; it's my favorite LN, so I want it to be at the highest possible level. :D And I'm not really working on any other project right now, so I can go on about it quite relaxed.

I love the story, and I have time during my school break, so I'm doing some major edits offline (I'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's some overlap in taste here... ==

I've been reading light novels here for a while...since vol 4 of Haruhi was halfway done.  Some I like, some I don't.  It's a matter of taste, like anything else.  I've read both the Utsuru no Hako series and Gekkou and they'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't good enough to translate, but I'm happy to edit these (as I did with all of Gekkou) because they're so different/interesting and not at all like the generic LN offering here.  I don't know how you'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)

I wonder if you could continue translating the Dantalian LNs because I think quite a few people want to read it further and can't read moon (yet).

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.
:Dantalian no Shoka is a great LN, but it lacks a main story that connects everything, which bothers me a little. I'll think about making a few summaries, but I guess you'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)

== Thanks for translating ==
Thanks for taking the time to translate the novels. I would really like to thank you in particular for translating Maria, I'm looking every week for updates to the 5th volume!

== How to best express my appreciation for your awesome efforts! ==
You're responsible for translating most of my favorites - Utsuro no Hako,
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't spend time there; otoh, if you want Utsuro no Hako to be uber-polished, etc etc

Anyway, much thanks (and sorry if my edits are too intrusive)...I haven't done a lot yet, but figured I should check in early rather than be a pain in the butt...

[[User:Grrarr|Grrarr]] 08:38, 12 July 2012 (EDT)
: First of all, thanks a bunch for the edits you made so far. :D Made my day. And don't worry about being too intrusive: if it sound better/more correct/more natural, then it'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'm always delighted if someone makes the stuff flow better.

:As for priorities: Hopefully sometime during the next week I'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'll get '''instant access''' (not wanting to sound like a pr0n site).
:* Apart from Hakomari, I'd like to focus mainly on Tsukumodo, since there's still a whack-load of work to be done there (mostly translation-wise).
:* Gekkou: Considered completed. I'm satisfied with its editing state (pretty much the only project I am)
:* Tabi ni Deyou: Don't plan on putting much more work into it. Was just a little one-man side-project.
:* Hakomari <5: I've pretty much given up on getting them into shape. :D yyr has gone through them and erased a lot of errors though.

== Thank You So Much! ==

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's why I'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'm still laughing right now even tough it's not a story I'm supposed to laugh about. Anyway, Tabi ni Deyou was beautiful. I can't really say about Dantalian since I've still didn't read the novel, but I like the story from the anime and manga. And now I'm reading Tsukumodo Antique Shop. I've just ended the first volume and really, it was great. Well enough blabbering, I'm here to give you my thanks but also to cheer you on Tsukumodo, it's a great novel and I'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'm at it I would like to ask you permission to translate Utsuro and Tsukumodo into Brazillian Portuguese. Well, technically I'm already translating Utsuro for about some time. You can check it [http://lightnovelproject.blogspot.com.br/ here] in the label "Projetos" 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!

It's more farcical than your usual choices, but it's definitely as intellectual as anything else you've done, and it recently had a well-done anime.

I hadn't bothered to look at Romeo's CV before now.  A majority of his work is visual novels.  Interestingly I've recently played through Cross Channel, which is his most famous vnovel.  CC has some clever elements but didn't wow me.  Now that I know that the same guy wrote both, I can see the similarities in the narrator's internal commentary and the underlying theme of people who are broken in interesting ways interacting.  I'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'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's your project if you want it. -[[User:Senile seinen|Senile seinen]] ([[User talk:Senile seinen|talk]]) 10:48, 29 December 2012 (CST)

I love you.  This series is consistently mind-blowing and I can't wait for the finale.  Your relentless efforts in translation are invaluable.  I love you. [[User:LoliSauce|LoliSauce]] ([[User talk:LoliSauce|talk]]) 02:26, 20 February 2013 (CST)

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! KITAAAAAA!!!  Thank you!  By the way, has Eiji Mikage stated when the final Volume 7 is coming out?
:Nope, we only know that the first volume of his new series is coming out in April. [[User:EusthEnoptEron|EusthEnoptEron]] ([[User talk:EusthEnoptEron#top|talk]]) 01:05, 25 February 2013 (CST)

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's done, so I know I really love it, so I must really love your translations, so great work and thanks again!

== Gekkou Vietnamese Translation ==

Hi, EusthEnoptEron.

I'm Thefirst244 from sonako wiki, I want to redraw your picture 006 of illu in Gekkou light novel. Can you give me the font you use to write on it?

Thanks so much!
--[[User:Miya|Thefirst244]]
: Heyho. I only used standard fonts -- Impact for the names and Candara for the rest. The cleaned picture itself is by courtesy of the Spanish translators, you can find it [http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?zkq3o7rxiq4q4c8 here] if needed.

== The F-Ranked Tyrant - Return of a Fallen Genius ==

hi man...

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...

Greetings! Only one question was.
: Heyho, cool that you enjoyed Hakomari. :D At this point, I have no plans of translating Mikage's new series, since I don't have enough energy to pick up any new projects and I want to finish Hakomari/Tsukumodo first.

::Hi, thanks for your quick response... No problem, in fact I am very grateful that thanks to you, I know this work, HakoMari... Well I wish you luck in everything you do...


Greetings!

== Gekkou Short Story: Stubborn will of the Crescent Moon ==

Yo EEE(Hope you don't mind the abbre.),
I ran into a Chinese version of the Gekkou Short Story: "Stubborn will of the Crescent Moon" 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.

Thanks,
pervy

== Question about Utsuro no Hako to Zero no Maria ==

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't seem possible to be tricks of some sort. I tried doing some google searches but couldn't find any references to all the underlining you have done for the series.

So I was wondering if you could please explain the meaning of underlined phrases. Thanks.
