Coda is part of Closing Chapter.

We have released bois https://todokanaitl.github.io/patch/

In the coming weeks, this thread will be updated to include a link to the patch. There's only a miniscule amount of work left until release.

You're right. It's also a poor way of running a TL project, hence the speculation and confusion. I think Littleshogun explanation is right, and there is just stuff happening behind the scenes.

From the reddit thread: "I prefer not to go into too much detail about the situation, since it'd mean airing out some tensions between myself and the lead translator publicly" Yeah, shit's happening behind the scenes and there's tension between the project members.

I've been a translator for multiple projects myself and this rate of progress is not normal, especially when it's so close to finishing. The silence from the TL team isn't helping. No, they're not "obligated" to finish it, but that's neither here nor there. No serious project can last with that mindset.

With all due respect, what the hell is going on?

If you mean "address" in the sense that the taboo aspect is emphasized and side-characters being kinda creeped out: Natsuzora no Perseus (JP only) https://vndb.org/v10597

Todokanai Translations Presents White Album 2 https://vndb.org/v2920 & https://vndb.org/v7771 Description Howdy The patch will include translations for the entirety of White Album 2. That includes Introductory Chapter, Closing Chapter & Coda. Beyond that, the patch also revises the contents of the questionable partial patch we released before, including retranslations of whole parts that were beyond saving. Further beyond that, our lovely programmers have managed to fiddle around with the script to include 14 new PS3 exclusive CGs to our patch. That's 1 new CG for introductory Chapter, 11 new CGs for Closing Chapter, and 2 new CGs for Coda.

Most visual novels are definitely written by people who would never pass as authors, especially when it comes to repetition and redundant lines. So many, including good ones have this mantra of: --- "I thought that it sounded strange" MC : "Doesn't that sound strange?" Girl : "You're right, that does indeed sound strange" "She agreed with me, also saying that she found it strange" --- Another case of redundancy are scenes that could be skipped entirely without losing track of the plot. I can tolerate this with SoL novels, but there is no reason story-focused visual novels should waste people's time. Higurashi is a big culprit of this, while White Album 2 has near-perfect pacing.

The House in Fata Morgana is truly a masterpiece. You won't regret reading it.
