    Happy halloween!

    Tomoyo, Meiling, Sakura

    So I decided to draw some fanart of the Drama CD cast dressed up as characters that their voice actor’s have played. And if I’m being honest I probably invested waaaay too much into drawing this, but I couldn’t help myself. I went full dork. Here’s a breakdown of the characters and their cosplays:

    NM-2011 is Card Captor Sakura’s voice (Sakura Tange)

    Frena (Demi) is Tomoyo’s voice (also from Card Captor Sakura) (Junko Iwao)

    Sunohara

    Fal (Rika) is Meiling’s voice (also from Card Captor Sakura) (Yukana Nogami)

    Nei is Sailor Moon’s voice (Kotono Mitsuishi)

    Thray (Rune) is Kakashi’s voice (Kazuhiko Inoue)

    Rudy (Chaz) is Youhei Sunohara from CLANNAD’s voice (Daisuke Sakaguchi)

    Forren (Wren) is Aizen from Bleach’s voice (Show Hayami)

    And that’s a wrap! Whew!

    Hi guys!

    Just a small update between working on stuff for the Drama CD Video.

    I decided to colorize the promo art for Third! drawn by Yoshibon. They are not official colors, but they are what I like to imagine anyway c: Hooray for colors.

    Until next time!

    I finally did it!

    I finally started the video subtitle for the Drama CD. There’s only a little bit so far, but I’ve been busy working on all the artwork that I plan to use throughout and now I’m pretty much done with that. More is coming soon!

    I’m very excited about this project! Here’s some artwork I’ve been working on, which is heavily based on Yoshibon’s style to match the classic PS look as much as possible. Also a bonus Nei Third fanart because I love her so.

    Hey guys! Some small updates. First, the new content:

    1. Continuity Guide

    2. Glossary

    3. Links

    The Glossary is a work in progress and currently only covers PS1. I plan to add more to it soon. But I thought it would be nice to have all of the JP and EN terms, official translations and other translations, all together in one spot to help along with the sense of continuity that is somewhat lost to English speakers who are presented with alternating and varying translations throughout the series.

    Lastly, some unfortunate news. Some of you may have noticed that I’ve taken down the Raw Materials section.

    I had to take it down for legal reasons. I am a law student so I’m sure you all can probably understand why. Sadly that includes the SPEC 6 scans. Anyone can feel free to re-host the scans, and most of the other scans are available elsewhere already.

    That’s it for now. Until next time.

    Fal/Rika from Phantasy Star IV. It was her birthday! She’s still my fav char from PS. c: I had fun with this and took some artistic liberties, like replacing the cape with some frilly skirt ruffles. Yay! I was told she resembles a Sailor Senshi here and I feel like that’s the best compliment sooo yeah C: I love Yoshibon but he’s a bit boring with his basic leotard outfit designs, and Rika’s redesigned model in PSO2 somehow shows even more skin than normal sooo I thought I’d address this issue. Bahaha C:

    Also she’s got the dope claw from the game box art that was never actually used in game but is still just too cool for school (my character from PSO also used it ;D)

  • Prologue Story Chapter 3

    Ok, Chapter 3 is done! Read it here!

    It’s a short and sweet little story and I really enjoyed translating it.

    The hardest part was definitely the poem/verse that Ulliard sings, because I had to keep the original meaning as close as possible while also making it kind of rhyme (because where’s the fun in a bard song that doesn’t rhyme or have meter!?)

    Anyway I hope you guys enjoy it, next time I’ll work on Outside Saga Chapter 1 C:

    Until next time!

    Hi guys!

    I randomly decided to translate Chapter 1 of Prologue Story. It’s only 3 chapters and pretty short and sweet so I figured I may as well. I will translate the other 2 chapters and then see what else I might do. Until next time!

  • Third, Chapter 2 is translated!

    I have translated the missing link to the Third saga, the coveted…

    Chapter 2!

    Go check it out. For whatever reason I went all extra on the sound effect words. Those sound effects are so important to setting the story, dangit! Probably though I think I miss working on my web comic…. at any rate, enjoy!

    Anyway, I think I want to try translating some of the other comics in SPEC. Stay tuned.
