I've actually already started some translations from her comics, thankfully that Chinese site had the original Japanese as well as the Chinese translations of them. Next week starts up my crazy amounts of free time again, so I'll try to make sure stuff gets done! ^^

Can you give me the site? I can't read Chinese very well, but it's better than no translation at all.

Yep, that's me~. I've started translating the sleepover comic, should have it done soon since it's halfway done now. ^^ I'm just having some trouble reading some of the characters since the scan is so small and it's 3am, hah. Once it's done I'll have my typesetter get to work then I'll post it on my translation journal~

and if they did describe how Hunter survived, i missed it. if it's some secret plot point they're gonna bring out later, that's fine with me but it's entirely possible i just skipped over it.

That's exactly what I meant. You can't really compare Gauron and Kurz regarding their survivability because Gauron was protected by LDS. M9 doesn't have LDS.

Oh, kudos to those who tried to learn Chinese and do translations of side-stories or fan stories. I'll still take up the big stuff if there're any.

[killersaint]

ah... sorry, i misunderstood you.

Very true. It was still very strange how Gauron survives a self destruct at the end of the first series. He says it was the Lambda Driver that saved him, but it seemed unreal. Oh well, it's probably just me.

I think that Wraith is in one of those helicopters, which were appeared in the end and forced Leonard to retreat. May be they'll save Kurz.

Well...

Spoiler for ANOT:

It really looked like he died already.

"Kruz Weber with his last though [serves you right], holding tight the rifle, and falls into the nothingness of darkness." i don't think that means he just fainted. But could be.

Until it is written by Gatoh that he is officially dead, there will be believers. It would be cool and all if he survives, I liked Kurz. But all the same, it would be weird and cliche for him to come back..

Gatoh deliberately set out to write the FMP! novels as "B-movie" material, so cliche would be in line with that.

[Alchemist007]

If it was cliche as far as Kurz and Mao goes, I'm cool.

I dont mind the cliche.

[akire_and_atem]

I hope Kurz lives, but not alive and mutilated like Gauron did...if it comes to that I prefer him dead

B-movie??? If this is B-movie material, I would really like to see how's A-movie material, because FMP novels are some of the best things I've ever read... even if they are very SF at times...

Yeah, me neither.
And like somebody said earlier, I won't believe that Kurz is dead until Gatou says so.

BTW, has anyone seen the 11th RAW volume of SIGMA? I've been searching for it desperately, but no luck. And it must be scanned, because the Chinese version is already online.
