flight dairy and snow presents was once being translated and might still be. this is all just speculation.
yeah, youre probably sadly not gonna get anything more than that honestly.
Check the reddit post @MarcomiX shared, it's got tons of latest updates on some patches. I'm really pumped up to see all of this coming together!

What rubs me the wrong way is SakuraGame being called a VN publisher. It bothers me that what they are releasing is even called a "translation", much less to speak of "localization" (yeah, I am off-topic here but since you guys are already talking about machine translations...).
It's fine man. Not much people nowadays have love for VN with all the battle royal games and whatnot coming out. I just wanted to put that spark again most of the people who are passionate about VNs had.

That's a good news.
anyway, here's the reddit forum about Kono Oozora:
https://www.reddit.com/r/IMHHW/Oh cool man, well at least the news here is promising, just months old like a month or two.
Here's news about SP being translated and hopefully up this year: https://www.reddit.com/r/IMHHW/comments/7gzy7m/imhhw_snow_presents_translation_in_full_swing/

So, IMHHW has been out for a long time now. What with almost all players/readers hating Moenovel for their butchery, I thought I'd like to have a little discussion with old fans of the VN as well as new ones. Don't get me wrong, this is a really great VN with or without the eroge scenes. A really solid and great VN.
Now as most of us know, there is the Flight Diary and Snow Presents version apart from the base one. I've been checking posts and forums for the past 2 hours now about any news on translation of the two. So far, I've found just speculation since they released a new VN with the telescopes. I know for a fact that there are fans out there trying to translate Flight Diary as well as SP. There are few posts about this dating back to 2015, some are speculations last year (2017) that Moenovel is working on translating Flight, but some are just asking the question to translators if their translation project is dead or not. I would personally like to know any news you guys know and would like to have a fun chat about this amazing VN that spanned a fandisc.
I would really like FD and SP to be fully translated and with a restoration patch (like the base game), wouldn't you also agree?
P.S. For those that own the Steam version of the game and plan to make the Restoration patch; finish the whole game first without it to get the achievements cause once you put the Restoration patch, you won't get achievements for the game.

Gambare! Been awhile since I've been here, good to see that IMHHW is still being translated and updated. Let me know how it goes. This is for the eroge cracked ver right? Not the Steam ver

Lies lies .
Don't give hope to my fragile heart .
If it doesn't air I'll be disappointed again .
Like I said--the reason they stopped it is because of the earthquake and tsunami Japan had. They temporary wanted to stop "apocalyptic" shows because what they went through was kinda apocalyptic in a sense. But the S2 it yet TBA.

No, I don't read Japanese. But with the help of 4 machine translators, several dictionaries and story context, I can get about a 90% accurate translation that works for me. I'm patiently waiting for the Flight Diary translation, but I have read the awesome Sweet Love add-on for Kotori, my waifu!
Oh I see! That's a lot of work bro
But hey, it's all for Kotori 
Yeah same here, but they'll be releasing the 2nd patch first. The one where Ageha's route it "fixed"

It's Kotori, all the way. For me, everyone else is a distraction from the main story. I'm currently about a third of the way through "Snow Presents". A must read for Kotori fans.
Oh nice! Same here. Hmmmm...so you can read Japanese? Since Snow Presents isn't translated, right?
awwww no love for Asa or Yoru
-
Halllooooo~~!!! Hope you enjoy your stay here(like what Kotori's expressing there in the pic)
Anyway, this is a nice (and crazy) place full of nice (also crazy) people...so therefore, YOU are now crazy as well.Well, I advice you to do Turbo C and Dev C++ first if you started right off the bat with Java. THAT IS ALL
-
A writer huh? Interesting. I might need your help in the future after college, I plan to make VNs...and the "good" kind, if you know what I mean
Anyway. Sup. Enjoy your stay. The people here are crazy, therefore...YOU are now crazy as well

Allooo~~! Enjoy your stay here, it's amazing here. Just...don't be TOO salty hahaha.

I'm currently finishing If My Heart Had Wings(Pulltop ver, also uncensored)
Oh Amane you cutie klutz! Done with Koisuru Natsu no Last Resort, Katawa Shoujo, Sakura Beach(all), Touching(or Teaching?) Feeling(though more of a dating sim). And now, I'm gonna read:
- Nekopara(all volumes)
- Stein;s Gate
- Maji de Watashi ni Koishinasai! (there's a 2nd one I think)
- My Girlfriend is the President
- Clannad
- Tomoyo After Story
- A Kiss for The Petals(all of them. ALL.)
- Sakura Swim Club
- Symphonic Rain
- AIR
- Lonely Yuri
- Noble Works
- KoiChoco
- Lililum x Triangle
- Koi iro Chi! Lips
- Rewrite
- Wanko Kurasou
- Ikinari Anata ni Koishiteiru
- Hoshizora no Memoria
-
and at least 5 more that I forgot.
I definitely recommend If My Heart Had Wings, but you'll be confused with Ageha's route at first, but fret not, there's a 2nd patch coming that'll fix it. And currently, all the fan discs and Sweet Love are untranslated, but I hear some people plan to translate it after the 2nd patch. Also if you haven't played Katawa Shoujo--it's a masterpiece! If not, one of the best. So yeah....hope you find something interesting from the recommends. VISUAL NOVELS/NOVELS FOR LIFE!! READING IS AWESOME!! Especially with ecchi in the mix
-
Well, it depends on your taste. I'd say if you like upbeat, lively, girls singing to their hearts content--Love Live songs are awesome! There are also some that have heavy metal added to the mix, or some like dance club music. I should know, I've been a hardcore Love Liver ever since they aired...plus, many man-tears were shed during the Final Love Live and anime....even today when people make feels pics of School Idol. Some would argue that IdolMaster is better, but it all depends on your taste. Listen to a couple of songs in YouTube, especially the most famous one's like Snow Halation and Sunny Day Song(best 2 out of all in my opinion), but there are tons of amazing ones out there as well!
And here, http://hikarinoakariost.info/ I think they have all, if not, almost all, the Muse's albums there. When a link doesn't work, just refresh it or come back after a few hours or a day. I hope you'll enjoy the songs by Muse! I know I did. Still not sure about the Aquors though...
P.S. Try using SoundCloud instead of Spotify. I believe Spotify was catered for the Western needs, not so much for Asian music, especially if they're not that famous like those K-Pop bands or some very famous Japanese artists.

very interesting survey man! Highly like it. And the thing you did with the "real" survey, hilarious!

God Eater 2: Rage Burst expected released date is on summer 2016 for NA and EU?
Yep, I read it in a wiki last night. This 2016. Kinda disappointed if they dub it, it would be better if they sub it like in SAO games. But hey, GE Burst was dubbed. So what the hell, at least we're getting a localization.
-
Most of use who'd played the God Eater game in the PSP know well how the story goes even without watching the entire 13 ep anime. True, there are some parts that were altered or parts that were in the anime that weren't in the game, but that's just how it is.
Anyway, at the ending of ep 13 when Lenka(the protagonist in the game), become the Captain...we see a scene there where the cape is being repaired. Who is repairing it? Alisa or Lenka? Cause we know that Alisa already has feelings for Lenka whether it be in the anime or game, we're sure of that. I'm just not sure how much they progressed in God Eater 2 since I only got to play the Jap DEMO version, but they did hug at some point there. Anyway, going back...I'm just curios as to who you guys think is repairing that iconic cape of Lenka. I personally think it's Alisa since she was tardy on the new captain's installation, further more Sakuya said that is was unusual for Alisa to be late. This gave me the idea that Alisa was late because she was repairing Lenka's cape because 1. she owes him so much for helping her recover, 2. she has feelings for Lenka. But they again, Kotah might be right when he asked Alisa if she was just in the toilet.
While were at it, does anybody have any latest news about the release date of the localization or subbing of God Eater 2 for western fans? I know it's going to happen since it was confirmed, I just don't know when.

Well if you delve even deeper and look at the context of Rei's situation pre zombie outbreak you can see that Rei probably went with Hisashi in the first place because he was there for her in a time when she needed someone and Takashi wasn't.
Exactly! Takashi wasn't dense, he was just SLOW. And personally, I just think Rei was doing the wrong things or not doing anything to make Takashi notice her MORE. Since Takashi was well, slow and stuff. But hey, it's all part of the charm of anime, the less straight, the better the fan conclusions and sometimes, the better the story sounds.

You probably shouldn't believe that, I feel like it might come eventually but probably not 2016.
And I feel like the whole reason Rei was with Hisashi in the first place was because Takashi was an asshole who couldn't get his shit together. I mean he smacked her in the face in the first episode, Not cool. But when he actually gets his shit together she starts to feel attracted to him again.
Well, the main reason I posted this wasn't about the release date. But hey, as long as it comes.
Well, if you delved deeper, you can see why Takashi loses his shit. It's because Rei has become a stubborn girl. Well, tbh, Takashi was the most hurt when Rei went with Hisashi. Takashi was slow...very, I'll admit that, but then again, Rei was too fast. She wanted Takashi to realize it without even hinting it that much to him, I mean how would Takashi make a move if he's a somewhat reserved type of guy who tries his best to protect and respect the women around him. Takashi is a laid-back type of guy, so it's natural he wouldn't take that much interest as time went by when he felt that Rei was slowly pushing him away and going to his best friend Hisashi. BEST. FRIEND. A majority of people know the pain this will cause, I know I do.

Gotta ask, where did this information come from? Is it speculation or has it been confirmed?
Well, it's both I guess. It's not yet confirmed when exactly but, some are saying 2016. There is however reasons why Japan 'stopped' releasing HOTD. Here's some of the reasons why http://release-date.info/tv-series/highschool-of-the-dead-season-2-release-date/ it's said that they "temporarily" forbade the release of apocalyptic type anime, so that's the main reason why. It's all there in that site. Fingers are crossed though.

Yes, Moenovel's choice to change the game so drastically was not very well recieved.
Their reason was to appeal to a greater audience; people under the age of 18. Of course, doing this to an eroge is kind of dumb, obviously.
The main reason they did it though, is that the story is so light and nice. A group of friends building a glider and overcoming hardship together is basically the main focus of a large amount of the game. Also, the cute and light romance during the beginning of the routes is very fluffy and not that mature in itself.
It was simple marketing. They figured more people would buy the game if the 18+ tag was removed, but in order to do that, they had to cut the H-content. Stuff like this happens, but trouble was that Moenovel decided that ALL slightly mature content had to be purged, and they literally changed parts of the game completely.
THAT. IS. BULLSHIT. MAN. DAMN YOU MOENOVELLLL

Well the entire game was censored when the original official translation was made. The only reason Ageha's script in itself was actually completely changed, was because, (story spoilers),
It's just a story about two people being sex buddies during the start. The other routes has romance elements that can be left in there, and then they just remove the H-scenes. But for Ageha's route, they thought that the story and romance itself was not appropriate, and decided to change it completely.
Because of this, the people who then joined in to "fix" it by making a restoration patch had to get around the fact that the entire script was changed.
In addition, there was already typos and such left in by the actual localization, meaning the original translators did a poor job. These two factos meddled in together made the restoration patch a real piece of work. That is the reason Ageha's route is exceptionally bad.
(The other routes also has similar problems, bad grammar, some poor translations and direct changes to avoid inappropriate sexual content in the dialogue.)
Ah, true. But that "sex friends" is, well, only viable to Ageha. We can see romance, tension, build-up, etc with Kotori's and Amane's route. Idk about Yoru and Asa's still. Yes, it's really bad, there are so many errors. But...it's not to say that the logic they used to "change" Ageha's route as they see fit--is complete bull.
Honestly! Why would anybody even freaking do that!? That's stupidity at best. It's pissing me off a bit. If I wear the translator, I'd just translate it on how the creator intended it to go, NOT want my own way. Honestly...just make another fan-disc about it if you don't like what the creator did.

Okay so, this has been in quite a debate for awhile. I'm also excited to say that there will be a S2 for HOTD this 2016 or so. Just a fun fact for the people who don't know yet.
Anyway...we all know that Saya, Rei, Saeko, and Shizuka ALL LIKE Takashi to their extent. Setting that aside, in ep9 we know that Tak and Sae were trapped in a temple and they spent the night there. In the manga(they say since I haven't read it yet), nothing happened. In the Anime, something CLEARLY HAPPENED. Be it a kiss or more. Now...what I'm getting at is..at the end where they got to Saya's mansion, Saeko and Takashi were walking side by side...while Tak's arm was around Sae AND Sae was holding his arm. Take note of that action, it will be important later. Now, Sae asked Tak if he'd "take responsibility" and he said yes and such. Okay, so before that...we can't say he's injured in a way because before they got to the house, Saeko asked Takashi that and they were running in a line, not side by side...now, they were walking leisurely and in a relaxed state so that means there was at least some romance in there. Now I could be wrong since I haven't read the manga yet, but hear me out still. People were debating that that was a figure of speech about Takashi being their leader and stuff, that could be one reason...but there could also be a romantic reason for that. I'm not saying that Saeko is pregnant but we can assume at least that they 'did it' because she could mean that Takashi should "take responsibility" for being her first. Now some people might argue that it's too soon or stuff like that, but think about it...first, it's an Anime, secondly, anything can happen since they know that every second could be their last, thirdly, Takashi accepted Saeko for who she is mostly for his survival but also because he regarded Saeko as "the coolest girl he's ever met". Let's fast-forward a bit...we can see that in the mansion when Saeko is wearing a kimono(?), we can often see that Seako and Takashi have these "awkward moments" where they keep complimenting each other and keep blushing. We can also see this when Saeko asked Takashi about whether he'd take responsibility or not, we can see her face all pure and full of longing, love, and care towards Takashi and their 'actions' so to speak. We can also see this when Rei and Takashi ALMOST did it during ep11, Rei was slightly mad or pissed off at when Saeko was waiting outside the door to speak with Takashi...we can see the frustration during that time, because, well duh, girls can read girls easily...so she knew something was up with Saeko and Takashi. She didn't want to lose Takashi, her childhood crush, after losing Hisashi. So she was protecting her man...or something along those lines.
Now, we can safely assume as well that Takashi is more inclined to Saeko in a way because deep inside he knows that the reason Rei is with his is because Hisashi is already dead, but if Hisashi would've lived, we all know that Rei and Hisashi would be together...like all the time. Rei wouldn't notice Takashi that much anymore or would get jealous when girls cling to him. Because come on! Saeko and Takashi are the best pair in my opinion. Rei only came back to Takashi because...well, we all know already why. What I'm trying to prove is, we know that Saeko likes Takashi and she's just being ominous or vague about it, and it de-bunks the theory is them being just 'close friends'. Sure, Rei likes Tak now but..that wasn't the case before z-day, after kindergarden. Cause duh! We're men, we can't know or don't want to assume how a girl feels about us because we'd only get hurt in the end, amirayt?
We can also see their desires from the OVA of HOTD. That...steaming...amazing...fan-service...ECCHI..EPIC EPISODE!!What are your thoughts about it? Mine is very clear--Takashi and Saeko HAVE something akin to a romantic relationship but Takashi can't decide who to choose between Rei and Saeko because Rei is his childhood sweetheart and Saeko is somewhat his current "ideal" woman.

There is a patch to read her route in English, yes. It is the current restoration patch, but it does, like I said, leave in a lot of errors. The reason for this is that the original translators changed the entire script in that route, and for the people who went to fix it, this was a nightmare.
The current project on fuwanovel is going to make her route even more readable, if I am not mistaken, but you can read the patch that is currently available and come out with a general outline of the route.
Just know there are some mistakes here and there, and some rather confusing sentences at times.
It is all in here: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=346505653
Well, there's still that lingering thought behind my head: "If they did a restoration patch and nothing with Kotori, Amane, Asa, and Yoru's route was changed or wrong(except for some misspelled words), why was Ageha's changed? Why did they have to change her script? What's the point in all that?" You know, if I know Japanese in an out, I'd volunteer to help out with the translation. So, I'm gonna do my best and learn Japanese so I can help translated VNs and well, contribute and give back to the community and stuff..

Heyyy. You still take up requests man?
