So where were people getting "Glory of the Defeated" from? It's been called that pretty much everywhere, not just on this thread.

Well, the actual title as it was first released was in Japanese, right (Haishatachi no eiko)? So, it was just what people were choosing to translate it as... But now we have an official English title, so.

Deacon translated it as that and he's doing the scanlations, so, that prolly helps too.

Hmm...well, there it is then, I guess. Haha. Too bad, not only did it sound better, I think it kind of just made it sound more...interesting?

Oh, and if anyone was wondering, the latest issues of magazines and the like are still showing up at book stores here (we're like...40 or 50 miles south of Tokyo), and I believe mail service is more or less running smoothly everywhere but up north, so hopefully you guys that have been having your issues shipped to you will still be recieving them normal time I'm actually looking in to ways to get them shipped to me for a reasonable price in the states, since I'm not sure that I'll be here much longer

So why do people fight, anyway?
Perhaps the meaning of existence lies within their will to fight.
People feel a sense of accomplishment through battle.
And it’s also a fact that the ones actually fighting are never perceived as being tainted.

Oh God...yeah, we call it Sewercuse for a reason. They are trying reeeeally hard to make it nice but uh...failing pretty hard so far.

But we do have an Urban Outfitters now...and a big huge addition to the mall that serves no purpose because they ran out of money to finish it...so that's cool, right?

Oh, so here's that Shenlong MS Girl and Rankings page I promised weeks ago before midterms hit me like an 18-wheeler:

I like Shenlong girl better than I liked D-Hell girl, which is sad because Deathscythe has always been my favorite, and I was never a big fan of Shenlong. Go figure.

They didn't do an Epyon MS girl yet, did they?

Well...from the little bit I've been able to read of the actual story, along with summaries, it has certainly caught my interest. I think it still has the potential to be pretty good from what I can tell...then again it could be a trainwreck.


@Deacon - I remember reading you didn't want to put up translations till you had your own copies of FT...are you missing some information from them, or do you personally just want to own them before you put them up? I have both copies here with me, if you just need a few pages or some sort of overview of the layouts I might be able to help.

Oh I just personally want to own them... but a lot of times there are subtle changes between publications (aka Gundam Ace and final binding). Plus, it'd be easier for me to lay it out in photoshop if I have my own version. peacecraft did scan some of the initial pages for me though.

Aah, okay. Just thought I'd offer.

Well, hope you get ahold of the books soon, then...really looking forward to reading the translation.

The technical info it gives is fine but YMMV regarding the characters and their relation to each other. I'm not too thrilled but it makes for some good laughs. As for the story... *shrug* Can't tell yet.

GotD though is awesome. Nothing wrong with sticking even more guns to HeavyArms. The only thing bugging me about it is its official title. Glory of the Losers? "That's why we don't google translate, folks", indeed.
