solidbatman Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 Random question. I assume fuwanovel has a nope policy on NSFW pictures? Put it in spoiler tags.... I think? Damn. I should figure out what our policy on that is. AND the policy is to link them. Do not post them directly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MKDude Posted April 9, 2014 Author Share Posted April 9, 2014 MangaGamer released an official statement on the matter. Neat. To save everyone the time, here's what was said: Yes, the group did contact us about working together to make the release happen. As I mentioned before, there are a lot of hurdles towards Shin Koihime Musou's release - the sheer size of the project is the first to come to mind. The translation costs itself is already a huge investment for us. On the technical side of things, Nexton's in-house game engine isn't specifically made for English environments, and it's tough for them to make the necessary adjustments on their end as well. And some of you may recall, but the first Koihime Musou was originally released without voices because of complications in the licensing. It will also take some time to clear out that issue beforehand.I haven't had the chance to take a personal look at the quality of the translation, as they say they are still in the process of making further edits to the script, but that's one thing we value above all else. If the translation quality doesn't cut it, we're not interested and we will tell any fan-translation group that they need to go back and redo it if they're still serious about seeing whatever project they're working on get an official release. Our staff would love to see Shin Koihime Musou released, and we are working fairly regularly with different parties to try and figure out how we can approach the unique hurdles involved in its localization. If there's a quality fan-translation group willing to put in the work and work with us, we're willing to consider it as an option, but that does not mean it's the only option we're considering, nor does it guarantee the success of the project at the moment.

SpectralTime Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 I have absolutely no useful skills to offer this endeavor. But... well, I appreciate that it's not exactly an easy thing you're trying to do, and I'd just like to offer my thanks and moral support. Also, it's pretty cool how you're taking the translation into your own hands, since cost would be prohibitive. I guess I'm just worried that everyone'll burn out and leave it unfinished and unhappy... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MKDude Posted April 9, 2014 Author Share Posted April 9, 2014 Honestly, fan support is one of the greatest things someone can provide. It really makes us happy to read people wishing for the project's success. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpectralTime Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 That's... actually pretty good to hear. It makes me feel like I am helping somehow. Good luck again, I guess. Also, that picture of the lolis all grown up makes me sad, but for "Why can't they be like that in the game?" reasons rather than the... other ones..

7twenty Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 Thanks for doing this. It may not mean much, but if this is released in the US, I will buy it. Also, nice Profile Pic. I have had that as the wallpaper on my Laptop for a year now. I loved that scene! Cheers, and good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MKDude Posted April 11, 2014 Author Share Posted April 11, 2014 I've currently got a motivational picture from the harem ending as mine. As I've said before, it is our intention to release this in the US (or wherever English speakers buy it, I guess) and we'll make sure everyone gets to play it. Thanks for the support!

MKDude Posted April 15, 2014 Author Share Posted April 15, 2014 Wow, four days? I think that's the longest I've gone so far without saying something on here. Because we (Rooke) were a bit...delayed on doing Battle Bio Monday, I posted a cute Minmei picture. So...enjoy! BookwormOtaku 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jojungle Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 I have been on fuwanovel many many times but I have never bothered to make an account to join in the discussion, but PLEASE PLEASE do not give up on this project. You have 100000000% of my support and there are a lot of other people out there that feel the same way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TheGoldenTuga Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Guys, first of all I know how stupid I look asking this question here but I am desperate. I am looking everywhere for so I figured maybe someone here would help me. Long story short I was replaying koihime, my little brother got his hands on it and change all ogg files to be opened with either notebook or windows media player by default. I am not a tech guy and I have no idea what to do. I am close to tears. Help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darklord Rooke Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 You should make a thread in the 'technical issues and feedback' forum. A lot of techies hang out there and you should be able to get a reasonably quick answer. I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MKDude Posted April 17, 2014 Author Share Posted April 17, 2014 We should probably get someone who's only job is TL-Checking. Our translators TL Check each others work, but that is distracting them from actually translating. Any volunteers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zykiel Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 First off, you guys are the absolute best. I've been searching for any news regarding Shin's translation for literally years since i played the first, and i just stumbled upon this thread today while checking new stuff here. Continue what you guys are doing with even more awesomeness! You guys have all of my undying support and love!!! MKDude 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MKDude Posted April 22, 2014 Author Share Posted April 22, 2014 We remembered Battle Bio Monday (for once)! The Battle Bio Babe of the week was Fuu, a strategist for Gi and one of my favorite new characters. Check the Facebook page for her battle bio! Also, position is still open for a TL Checker!

SpectralTime Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 As a Dynasty Warriors fan, I tried to look up who that was in Romance of the Three Kingdoms terms. Unfortunately... no one I'd heard of, but looking it up was rather rewarding. Way to make me learn, Koihime Musou! Maybe Guo Jia's companion will make it into some expansion or other down the line. Kinda surprising such an old guy got turned into a loli though, they're usually better about making the "veterans" more middle-aged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MKDude Posted April 26, 2014 Author Share Posted April 26, 2014 If I'm not mistaken, Guo Jia isn't Fuu, he's Rin. The poor health joke of Guo Jia translates from the two games into Rin getting excessive nosebleeds whenever she thinks lewd thoughts. Being a perverted character in Koihime Musou, she's often found in a pool of her own blood. ALSO! Recruitment Requests: We still need a TL Checker so our translators can avoid double-duty.

SpectralTime Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 Sorry, you're right. I *knew* Fuu was Cheng Yu and someone else Guo Jia, I just didn't adequately communicate it in the post above. Being a TL Checker requires a working knowledge of Japanese, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MKDude Posted April 26, 2014 Author Share Posted April 26, 2014 Essentially.A TL Checker (by our standards) needs to have enough knowledge to be able to translate, but their job would be to check translations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpectralTime Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Well, if my banal pointless comments are the only way I can support the project, than by Jove I'll get to it! Shion was one of my favorite characters in the first Koihime Musou, but I didn't like to use her in battles because her Ougi ability as a general was weak and her tactical skills were very defensive in a game that rewarded aggression. Her new ones seem much more powerful, if a bit... straightforward. Then again, for all I know, the battle system's so completely different now that making a value judgement is pointless.

That is true that out of 6 generals you had at your disposal she had the weakest Ougi( taking into consideration that I personally never used it) so it´s nice to see that she is improved. But if you want the absolute worst Ougi of Koihime Musou (including the ones from the generals you face) that one definitely goes to Shia´s, it took way to long to charge ( funny taking into consideration that in the game they praise her speed, I mean her title is " Shia the Swift ") and by the time it was ready you the player would have already done enough damage to make it useless. On that note is she a general you can use? If so I am very much looking forward to see what they do with her abilities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
