Better late than never, right? (Introducing myself)


Aizen-Sama

Recommended Posts

Hi guys! After some posts and wandering around this forum both in threads and chat, I think it's time to introduce myself to everyone, since I actually never did to begin with. I remember my first post being a shitty question about starting a fan translation project, even though I don't know japanese (typical noob post, lol).That post encouraged me to learn japanese though (I'm taking classes right now).

Well, I go for the pseudonym of Aizen pretty much everywhere I go, since I'm a hopeless fanboy of his ever since I watched Bleach's Karakura Arc. Bleach was in fact the first anime I ever saw (which was actually only a year ago) and since then it's my favorite of all times. I discovered anime around a year ago, and ever since then I've been hooked to every genre available (yes, I find interesting genres like otome and yaoi too). The first time I knew about visual novels was while watching Seitokai no Ichizon, when the protagonist was playing a bishōjo game in one of the scenes. I though those kinds of games only existed in anime, but after a little research I found out that they were very real, and that there were hundreds, maybe even thousands of them. My first visual novel was A Profile (which I actually absolutely despise now), and from there I tried other titles (most of them are pretty famous; Katawa Shoujo, Majikoi, Grisaia no Kajitsu,Noble Works and Kara no Shoujo for example). The first time I became interested in translations was while I was playing throughout the Noble Works game. I knew it was translated, but what I didn't know was that the translation was done by fans, and let me tell you that I thought that the work they did with the game was incredible. I looked for the group responsible for the translation (which is The Oxford Comma is Superior subs) and I was impressed by their dedication and effort that they put into the project (I actually look up to them). Seeing this amount of dedication made me want to contribute to the community too, and it has made me want to learn to become a better writer, to improve my english, as well as learning how to extracting game's texts (I still find it pretty difficult but I'll sort it out little by little) and learn how to design websites (Oxford Comma Subs' website looks sick in my opinion :sachi:).

Summing up; I hope I can become a known contributor to the community in the future, that the team I'm currently setting up (Luna Translations) someday achieves the godly level of The Oxford Comma is Superior Subs , and I'd like to inmerse myself in this community as much as I can (pretty much being up to date with the Visual Novel Translation Scene, involving big companies like Sekai Project and fan translation teams like Rinjibou Translations for example).

Finally, I just want to thank everyone in this community. People here are very friendly, and even though I'm a little bit of an airhead sometimes I hope we can all get along well. I'll end up with Aizen's Shikai release, which is badass: Kudakero, Kyōka Suigetsu.

Welcome to Fuwanovel. About Aizen, I knew him from TV Trope and then I learned that he was Bleach villain. For the Bleach itself, it was one of 'Big 3' shonen manga along with Naruto and One Piece that had very long running, and as of now one of the three (Naruto) was already finished. Anyway, nice user name if I may comment, and I think it's still not late if you want to introduce yourself here (I speak from my experience that I introduce myself when I had 41 post here). And for your translation group, good luck and if you need some help in VN don't hesitate to ask us (Although I couldn't help with VN Translation business here though). Oh, last thing I hope you enjoyed yourself here.

Welcome to fuwa Aizen ^_^ (even if you are not a new member :wafuu:)

Why do you hate a profile now? I'm kinda intrigued xD 

 

Since it was my first game,  at the moment I wasn't able to appreciate everything the game had to offer (I like to analyze routes and the writing of the games a lot). So after playing several VN's and getting a grasp of what to do/expect from these games I decided to replay A Profile since I had a neutral opinion about it at the moment. But I found boring routes and story in general ( Im looking at you,  Miko route). I felt like I lost valuable time replaying the game and I finished it but feeling obligated since I already advanced on it a lot (I dont like to leave games I started unfinished, even if I dont like them).

Anyways,  a pleasure to meet you,friend. :mare:

Thanks for the compliment! :mare: And yeah, we'll probably start recruiting people soon, the first community to know will be the fuwa one of course.

Better late than never it is indeed!

I remember back when I was first watching Bleach, and Aizen showed his true colours for the first time. I was so shocked because I really liked him as a character at first, I thought he was a pretty cool guy, and I was genuinely sad when he 'died'. But when he made his true appearance to everyone, I still remember the feeling of complete surprise.

I really hated him because of that, but I loved him as an antagonist. Definitely my favourite one in Bleach so far, well in the anime at least, since I don't read the manga. I sure hope they decide to bring the anime back some day, or even start over with newer HD animation similar to what they did with Dragon Ball Kai. ^_^

I have to agree with you on that, miku's route was the worst one, I wouldn't call it terrible but oh well :P 

宜しくね!:wafuu:
