Not much to say, my name's Daniel Lofthouse, I'm 19 years old and living in Australia.

I'm a native English speaker, and somewhat proficient in Greek and Japanese. I've spent some of my spare time anonymously proof-reading and quality checking manga, but I decided to stop because of too many websites ignoring waiting periods because all they care about is ad revenue. Since then, I've returned to editing/reading Light Novels.

I fix punctuation, misspelling, tense, and grammatical errors. If there's a difficult edit that requires reference to the original Japanese text (or if the page is locked for edits), then I'll leave a post about it on the discussion page. Also, I can proofread and typeset (Aegisub), but I can't get used to how impersonal IRC is. If there are any Skype-based sub groups, let me know and I'll gladly pitch in.

When I'm not reading Light Novels, you can stalk on these games:

  • Dueling Network: Lofthouse
