August 8th, 2010, by in Translation
In response to the ongoing cease and desist orders issued from copyright holders with regards to visual novel translations as well as some of the reactions from the fan translation community, a new project collaboration site by the name of Proper-permission has been set up. This Redmine instance is aimed at hosting translation related projects for which project members have obtained permission from the copyright holders of the original works. In a post by creator Agilis of the site, the first project to be hosted on this site would be a collaborative translation of Waitingforyouguys’s Kisaragi no Hogyoku, an iPhone adaptation of a web novel. An English translation of the trial version is currently available from the original creators.

Indie Japanese novel game maker ventures into English translation
March 12th, 2010, by in Release, Translation
A person going by the handle Waitingforyouguys sent us email and informed us that he had created an English translation of the trial version of Kisaragi-no-Hogyoku, a short novel game he wrote for the iPhone. This game was adapted from a novel published on the creator’s site. The game does not use character sprites, but rather black and white full-screen images with text on the bottom half of the screen. The story revolves around the formation of “Ren” pairs between students at school and the competition for the top “Ren” pair. The translation is decent, although there are a few typos. Furthermore, the creator is seeking people who know both Japanese and English to help with the translation of the full game.
