I want to express my thanks to the translators and casually ask if you are losing interest or intent on the project
Spoiler
for
Long version PLEASE READ
:
I'd like to lovingly caress the heads of omimon, Shikijin and anyone else involved in the translation of these novels.
You have my, and I'm sure many others, sincere thanks.
However; I don't understand the current state of the translated novels as they are now on Baka-Tsuki.
I last checked the site a couple months ago, so it's not as if I'm sitting here terminally ill and itching for updates. I also can't pretend to know anything about your lives or priorities; I don't pay you or contribute to the animesuki community so it's not as though you owe me anything either.
But I'm rather mystified why the only updates, as far as I can tell, are disjointed and out of order.
It's kind of like a beautiful woman with no clothes lying in your bed telling you she just wants to be friends. It's just a complete tease.
Please don't take offense. I'm more confused than frustrated and I truly appreciate the time and effort you spent on the translations. We would all be lost without you. As a beginner in Japanese I also understand the colossal task you have set yourselves.
It's just a shame to have terrible manga and LN's translated instantly and chronologically, when genuinely brilliant series aren't.
Of course the popularity and complexity of Nisio's work is a factor too.
It's nothing but a selfish request and is at the leisure to grant by you learned bi- linguists, but please don't do them out of order. I can't fathom a reason for it.
Thank you again for your godly generosity. If i was privileged enough to read this series, I can't say I would do the same for some strangers on the internet.
