Well, manga ch 4 has been out for a while. We finally got to see Miyuki's classmates, Honoka and Shizuku as well as Morisawa. Mari, Suzune and Asuza also appear in this chapter.

I really want to know what Honoka is saying to Tatsuya. It seems like she has a crush on him but I'm not sure. Also, I wonder why someone like her would activate the CAD like attacking Tatsuya's group. I don't really get the whole situation since I can't understand what they said.

Okay, here's a translation of the last 10 pages of chapter 4. I have never studied Japanese formally, but I can read hiragana/katakana. Using that, my understanding of Japanese based on sound (e.g. watching subtitled anime for almost 2 decades now), and Google to clean up some stuff, I made a very rough translation. I'll get to the rest of it later, but I'll post this now since it was asked about. Just so you know, this took probably 30-45 minutes to do, but it was all the confusing magic explanation stuff (there's another big chunk of it before this), so I don't know exactly how long it will take. Also, don't ask me about translating the novel or anything. I can only do manga because I have no knowledge of kanji. With the manga, I can at least use the furigana to get a reading on the kanji.
Spoiler for Shabam! Bring the Fight!:

Spoiler for Come forth, Signor Douche Bag!:

Spoiler for Long Words and Confusing Stuff:


Edit: I'll leave this up, but it's a waste to read since mangaholic released their scans and I can't translate for crap

because you retired?

just let it be, it's just add more curiosity to others, and raise it popularity. If there's a group already working on it, it's good and will be better if you and him joining them to translate this.

2 decades watching.. I can endure 2 decades of killing carreer (If I life that long)
but for watching anime....*give salute to enigma-bro*

Thanks EnigmaticAxiom for the early translation of ch 4!

If Mayumi who can shoot cancel magic is a genius, then what is Tatsuya!?

I do this on occasion because I'd like to learn Japanese more if even a just a little bit. I do these things from time to time mostly to keep what little I know intact. It just so happened that this is a series I enjoy and since a group is doing it already, I can compare what I've done with a more accurate translation. I also chose this series because it has a lot of terms you usually don't see in other manga, so I can expand my vocabulary a bit. I can't set time aside every day to formally learn the language, so it's one of the better things I can do to learn.

Err, you do know that I've been translating both the manga and novel until recently right?

Anyway, I've found a replacement translatress for this manga. She's very experienced and this is useless info, but she appears to be a cosplayer as well.

Err. I met her on the net. She PM-ed to ask to translate the LNs. I don't know any translators in RL. Though I do know a few cosplayers in RL.

I'm not really translating anything now except for Itsuka Tenma no Kuro Usagi (which is really easy). I'm 90% retired. I wish I have time to translate the series in my sig though. But alas, Time is a very high-level monster.

The one from your sig is from this one right?

http://www.baka-tsuki.org/project/in...u_ni_Shitekure!

It's a good novel too which reminds me of Oreimo minus the bad treatment

Well thanks for knowing that mahouka is being translated.

Nice. And now you can see exactly how terrible I am at Japanese, since there's quite a bit wrong with what I posted.
