Demi_kon Posted March 15, 2013 Posted March 15, 2013 I've been a fan of VNs for a long time, yet for some reason I only found this site recently. I was really shocked to see such a well designed site with a focus on English translated VNs, so kudos to the webdesign people behind it. Because I see potential in visual novels as a medium for story telling, I would like to spread it through editing, QCing and possibly TLCing projects in the future. I'm from California, but I'm currently studying business and Japanese at Michigan State. デミコンといます よろしくおねがいします。 edit* games i've played... Steins;Gate Ever 17: The Out of Infinity Remember 11: Age of Infinity Clannad Tomoyo After Swan Song Wanko to Kurasou Fate/Stay Night Sharin no Kuni G-Senjou no Maou Da Capo Sengoku Rance Daibanchou! Big Bang Age Utawarerumono Majikoi (still reading) Edelweiss Kira☆Kira Quote
solidbatman Posted March 15, 2013 Posted March 15, 2013 Welcome to the forums! What are your favorite VNs? Also, I like that Tomoyo avatar, good choice (not that you can go wrong with Clannad heroines). Quote
Demi_kon Posted March 15, 2013 Author Posted March 15, 2013 Hm.. I guess my top three would be Ever 17, F/SN and Steins;Gate, in no particular order. Sayonara Z-sensei is one of my favorite comedies, it's up there with Gintama . What have you been playing recently? Quote
Ryoji Posted March 15, 2013 Posted March 15, 2013 Welcome to Fuwanovel. If you have any questions feel free to ask. Ever17 is a great VN. I just finished Rewrite recently and now im working on Aoishiro. Enjoying it so far. Anyway, make yourself at home and enjoy yourself Quote
zoom909 Posted March 15, 2013 Posted March 15, 2013 Yoroshiku! What have you been playing recently? You can look in to see more about what people are playing (and update it yourself) Quote
Guest Posted March 15, 2013 Posted March 15, 2013 hey demi_kon, i think editors are in high demand right now. not sure what you would be interested in.... you can help me edit Da Capo III? (it's over 30% translated now), you could help Ziddy do some editing for Oreimo PSP (although he needs translators more) best way to figure out which game you would be interested in, is to flip through this list http://vntls.tindabox.net/week/2013-03-09 (green means it got a progress update this week) Mashiro iro no Symphony or Koichoco would be good projects. Btw if you have trouble contacting the translators, leave me a message, i have secret contact details for a number of them. (connections ftw!) and welcome~ (PS: there's a couple of projects on TLWiki run by jerks. try to stay as far away from them as possible. These are not nice people. I dont want to see you get an awful first experience that will turn you off for years) Quote
Sieg Posted March 15, 2013 Posted March 15, 2013 Hey there, nice to meet ya! I'm seeing a lot of familiar titles in your list, so I guess we have similar tastes? xD Anyways, Ever 17 must be nice to be in that top three, so I'm thinking of picking it up myself, is there anything I need to know regarding sequels, route sequence or whatever?I'm counting on your recommendations from now on =D Quote

Also, thanks for the warning, I will stay away from those folks... I have no preference as to what project I'm a part of. I'd love to help you with D.C.! I'll inbox you soon.

(steins;gate, chaos;head etc.) in that each VN can be read standalone. The first time I went through Ever 17 I did Tsugumi > Sora > Sara > You, but personally I think doing it Tsugumi > Sara > Sora > You is probably better simply because [tsugumi + sora] and [you + sara] are both viewed from different protagonists POV. If you get around to it, tell me how it goes Quote

Sayonara Z-sensei is one of my favorite comedies, it's up there with Gintama ;)/>. What have you been playing recently? Actually I've been playing Remember 11. Just finished Ever 17 a couple of weeks ago. And Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei is my all time favorite anime, and the anime that got me into anime. Quote
Daeyamati Posted March 16, 2013 Posted March 16, 2013 Welcome to the forums! Glad to have you with us. How far have you gotten with your JP studying? Also, +1 for being a fellow Californian ;D Quote
Mikel Posted March 16, 2013 Posted March 16, 2013 Welcome to Fuwanovel ^^ I see you've played quite a bit of VNs, and I haven't played all of them, but the ones I've played are great. BTW, what do you think of Majikoi so far? I loved that VN, but I'm sick of waiting for the translation for Miyako's route to be complete. Quote
HaruKaizo Posted March 16, 2013 Posted March 16, 2013 Welcome to fuwanovel! I see that you have some experience with visual novels, and that is good, I also have Ever17 between my favourites. And I have yet to play Steins;Gate, I've watched the anime and liked it very much... I hope that you find whatever you want here, and have fun! Quote

Also, +1 for being a fellow Californian ;D Nicee, what part of Cali you from? I'm from Huntington Beach myself. Also, I'm in JPN 102, but my listening skills are probably on level of a 301 (too much drama + anime).

I loved that VN, but I'm sick of waiting for the translation for Miyako's route to be complete. It's hilarious! Most of the jokes are actually funny, which was surprising. I did the same thing, I uninstalled when I realized it wasn't going to be out for a good half year at best. I still have no idea what those gangster girls are about too. which route was your favorite so far? Quote

Yeah I'm the same, my listening skills are stronger than my reading. Although for me my reading skills are relatively weak since I'm not actively learning Japanese atm xD Quote

I did the same thing, I uninstalled when I realized it wasn't going to be out for a good half year at best. I still have no idea what those gangster girls are about too. which route was your favorite so far? Well, right now I'd probably go for Momoyo. But I really like Miyako, she has the best lines of the game in my opinion, she's just hilarious. I reached the end of the tranlation of her route and I was like: "WHAT.THE.HELL?!" And hoping they would end it soon, since it was almost finished, but now it looks like Majikoi S and even Majikoi A are gonna be completely translated before Miyako's route :S Quote
