If you are below the age of consent in your respective country, you are advised to stop immediately and leave this project page.

By continuing to read or be involved in this project, you are agreeing to the terms of our Disclaimer.

Please note that Baka-Tsuki hosts only the translated text, and as such, no images or game files are hosted here.

Looking for Help!

We are always looking for translators who have played the game already. But, other than that, we would like to find some artists to help translate the UI including all the menus and options, as well as someone who can create a better font for the English text. Additionally, there are a few movies that would be a lot nicer with subs/karaoke. Please apply via the talk page for this page.

FAQ

Is it possible for anyone to play the game?

  • We are working to make an all-ages variant of the script. Be advised though that playing through such a version of the script will never achieve 100% CG collection, etc.

Any extra notes that could be useful, like timeline, locations, etc.?

  • You may check here, but please be advised it will have spoilers.

Do I need to play the original WHITE ALBUM game (PC, PS3)?

  • It's not necessary. Although there may be references to characters and songs from the previous entry in the series, they are not pivotal to the story. WHITE ALBUM2 is meant to be a standalone story that just so happens to take place in the same world as the original WHITE ALBUM did.

Okay, how can I purchase the game?

  • As it is an eroge, availability may be limited. A list of stores that may stock them is listed below. Please be advised that the websites may not be safe for work:
  • Please remember you must be at least 18 years of age before purchasing.
  • The PS3 version, WHITE ALBUM2 -幸せの向こう側- (WHITE ALBUM2 ~The Other Side of Happiness~) is available for purchase as of December 20, 2012. This version is all-ages, but does have a CERO D rating (17 and older).

Are there guidelines for this project?

  • Generally speaking, the default Baka-Tsuki guidelines can be followed, but there are several amendments that have been made in order to accommodate this project. Please see the White Album 2 Guidelines for details.

Could we get access to the tools used to extract the text?

  • Unfortunately, the tools will remain closed for the time being. However, all the text that needs to be translated, in proper wiki format, will be made available. From time to time, we will release patches that reflect the work on the wiki. If other developments arise, we will look again into the possibility of making the tools public.

So wait, the patch is only for the WHITE ALBUM2 complete set?

  • That is correct. At this time, we don't plan on supporting the other two editions. The complete set is available from stores, so we will be supporting that version.
  • We suspect that the DVD version of the complete set is the same as the DMM (download) version, so hopefully both should be compatible with the patch.
  • If it turns out there is a sizable audience that has purchased only the introductory or closing chapter, etc., we will look into this later.

Hey, the digital novels are not listed on the script chart!

  • That's correct. At this time, we've decided that we won't be patching the two digital novels that are in-game. They are already available for your reading on the White Album 2 Omake page if you are interested.

Okay, do I need to play the game to translate/edit?

  • Yes. Sometimes images/sound in-game will offer context to the actual text, so at this time it is a requirement. If you are translating/editing but haven't played the game, the script cannot be marked as completed until proofread by someone who has.

How much of the text is relevant to the PS3 version?

  • As far as we know, almost all of it except for any of the adult sections. If there are any changes that are noticed, they'll be mentioned in the translation notes of the text. Unfortunately, at this time such changes won't be making it into the PC version of the translation. But for those who are following the translation in order to play the PS3 version of the game, the notes should hopefully prove useful.

So does that mean you're translating the PS3 version?

  • Short answer: No. Long answer: Short of hacking the PS3 and opening it up, it isn't possible to create a translation patch for the PS3 version. However, the system is import-friendly, so feel free to import it from your favorite Japanese sites.
