Double Feature (FK 3rei 05/Extra 01)

A loli Caster is fine, too…

Fightan. Mahou. Lolis. I cannot stress enough the key elements of the Fate Kaleid universe. Any of the three independently do not create the experience, they must all be combined into a single, coherent whole. All are fine on their own, but when assembled, you get the quintessential Japanese fusion of parts into a greater whole. And in FK you get this trope merged with the Nasuverse, which goes to yet another level. Perhaps in a future installment we will compare and contrast this franchise with other well-known exemplars of the genre, like Sailor Moon, Nanoha, and the Pretty Cure franchise.

But for now, you will have to make do with some homunculus on homunculus action. The shota does some fighting, too.

Next up is the first extra for 3rei, but this actually is sort of a continuation of the 3 pager we released back at 2wei-O-Ween, so this side story is still back in Illya’s Fuyuki City, and features my new fujoshi waifu, Hibari Kurihara.  Also features homunculus on homunculus action. This one was a challenge to translate, since I was forced to learn yaoi manga terminology I was not familiar with and hopefully will not encounter again <_< I was going to add some TL notes here, but I realized that nobody will care, so if there are any questions, please comment and I will try and answer them.

Hope you enjoy both of them!

Fight Club (FK 3rei 04)

Babylon and on…

Aaaand … it’s Fightan Mahou Shoujo Taimu at last! But the first rule of Fight Club is… We’re still not sure what’s going on in this world, but Illya isn’t going to take it lying down any longer…

Probably an extra from FK up next, then the penultimate chapter for this first arc of 3rei. No further word on the anime adaptation, which is sort of disturbing, but still assuming summer for that. Also, honorary mention to proofreader pseu for tag-teaming with Athos to make me use English on this manga. Nobody likes a good tanka anymore… grmbl…

Swan Song (KK 54 & 55)

Just like a fine Castella…

As part of my job as group janitor, I’ve been finishing up various leftover work people have left lying around. Chapter 55 got done at least six months ago, but was pending on 54, which got stalled behind 9000 animated GIFs of Joshiraku. In terms of relative popularity, this was probably the correct decision, but I dislike untidiness. KK 55 was actually animated in one of the 2011 OVA episodes, KK 54 is just all wet.

Barring the sudden appearance of another translator and typesetter out of nowhere, this marks the end of our efforts on Katte ni Kaizō. We have 5 additional scripts translated for chapters animated as part of the aforementioned OVAs, if another group would like these, please contact us.

Castling Kingside (FK 3rei 03)

A lazy Typesetter cast into the Suimasen Pit of Despair

The King of Chibis, err … Heroes reaches into his king-sized Bag of Holding and finds a +3 Scarf of Invisibility…

I may have some leftover Katte ni Kaizo lined up shortly, but apart from that, we’re kind of x_x As long as I have typeset help (thanks Athos!), I’ll keep Fate/Kaleid going here, but I don’t have more bandwidth apart from the odd chapter of anything else. Shikata ga nai, na~.

Iron Chef Fuyuki (FK 3rei 02)

The way I make it, you just need a styrofoam cup…

As promised … cooking. Although it seems that Kirei has some things in common with Gordon Ramsay, namely a tendency towards culinary violence… and a recent acquaintance returns…

So, as suspected, looks like Prisma Illya’s anime will be a summer release. However, that may mean it runs along with Prism Nana, which would cause us to all scream SHAAAAAFFFFTT!! I don’t know how much Fightan Mahou Loli the multiverse can take at one time. Also, editing blog entries while listening to Dvořák is awesome. That is all.
