| − | Well, usually when forum posting I enjoy doing a more in-depth (usually unnecessary) analysis of a favourable character, though usually it is something pointless such as tendencies/abilities that usually are not really looked. I have a tendency to restate what I say, and take quite a while to input a post. After discovering visual novels, it had a nearly ideal combination of what I enjoyed in a game, anime, or manga. With first person narration, vivid backgrounds, great character designs, and great context, I expend an abhorrently large amount of hours just to complete a run-through. To me, visual novels have the combination of strengths in a game, anime, or manga. Though, there isn't exactly gameplay, but I'd rather read interesting dialogue. |

I would only do this on notes or something, not on papers or editing. Long posts and varied typing makes me stand out, though this is not deliberate by any means, as I happen to type like that. |

So, I will contribute what I can without taking away from another person's work by editing some lines from time to time. My edits will be attempts to make the translated sentences sound more fluent, though since I usually do direct translations, I will hold back on that thought. Since I am looking at basic mistakes to edit, there is no particular path I am aiming at. Though, it's more like I want to re-read paths and scenes for enjoyment and then fix errours as I see them. |

| − | In terms of interests, well lately I have been enjoying visual novels to a very large degree. Unfortunately, some fine quality ones are only in Japanese for the most part, along with the fact that the length of any visual novel tends to be very long, so if it is not in English, it is very easy to miss some detail. Thus, I could only resort to hearing voices and doing pattern recognition, which only works in getting the general idea, but easily misses specifics. The visual novels produced by key are particularly interesting, and fit such criterion that can move me to tears. I have found Clannad most interesting. My favourite character is Fujibayashi Kyou. |

Hm, I wonder if Huaah/Huwah should be swapped with yawn. Or, Haaa with exhale ... nevermind, more like sigh. Then again, it's not that significant.
