Welcome!

Hello Js, thank you for helping out translating the series. Hope to see more from you.


Thanks for translating the series, definitely one of the best out there. Good to see more translators(good ones) coming into the project.


Heya, Js06. Thank you for continuing translating Vol. 14, hoping that you'll finish it til' the end. Thank you very much~

Thank you for continuing on 14 as well. Will you be moving onto the next volume to finish it up as well?

After 14, I'll be translating SS1. --Js06 19:57, 19 January 2011 (UTC)

Joay has given the green light for you to continue with 15, if you want to.--Teh Ping 10:04, 29 January 2011 (UTC)


Hey Js06. I'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'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.

The brackets around GROUP were probably meant to emulate the Japanese-style quotation marks 『』 used in the novels, but they aren'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. I'll look over the changes you mentioned later today. Thanks for your work. --Js06 22:23, 25 February 2011 (UTC)


Hey JS06, I know you can translate whatever you want, but why did u "jump" to SS2 so suddenly?Just curiosity. Thanks in advance.

What do you mean? All that isn't done between 15 and SS2 is 16's epilogue which someone else is working on. --Js06 20:04, 27 February 2011 (UTC)
