As for number 2... well, it looks like she was already dealing with pretty hard cases even before the Mariage case. In fact, I think she even complains how always dealing with really nasty cases and that's all she gets. I don't think it was a choice at first, it was probably a one time thing and then she found out no one else was doing it so she didn't complain when her second case turned out to be nasty too.

And then she went straight back to it once she got back.

That being said, it would not surprise me if deliberately took the nasty cases by choice. The Japanese text implies she 'returned' to duty with the terrible cases, but it never mentions if she chose to take them in the first place or if it just got shoved on her.

Thanks for clearing that up. I'm mostly just glad that she didn't end up in a harder/uglier/lower status part of the case load as a result of the Mariage case, so either she's doing this because she wants to or she was assigned there anyway, so it's not a "demotion" to Violent Crimes.

Okay, I've got to ask. Huh? You edited the post 1 hr. after originally making it, with no response in the thread to say that...and so far as I know, RadiantBeam (to a certain extent, though also liking other Nanoha pairings), deathcurse, and I are the only Nanoha/Fate shippers to routinely post on AnimeSuki any more, and none of us are stupid enough to think there'd be any confirmation of any romance between any of the main characters in an official product. So what brought this on?

Kaijo · 2011-01-01, 12:07

It's possible he got a dirty PM from someone. The movie, and the movie sound stages in particular, were one of the bigger "hopes" for the more extreme NanoFate crowd. To have something like this dash those hopes, well, I can envision at least one person striking out.

And Dezo, you aren't the only people who post on AS who like NanoFate. ;p I don't mind it myself, although I'm more of a Yuuno/Nanoha/Fate threesome guy, heh. And even NanoFate fans at least read AS, even if they don't post. Most of the best fanfiction is posted here first, and it's a nice central place for translation updates. No matter how much some might hate AS, they still come here to read posts.

Email message from an acquaintance who wanted a small translation, I don't give my translations exclusively to just you guys. I often post translations on my blog or just send it over by AIM, IRC, and a whole slew of chats and emails.

Often, they're not anything of note. But his hope for a confirmation of the relationship between Nanoha and Fate got dashed, he didn't react in a particularly pleasant way, not as unpleasant as you might think, but his implication that I was deliberately trolling him with 'an biased translation' was unamusing.

Lexich · 2011-01-01, 13:27

What hopes could there be? That 7Arcs suddenly changes it's modus operandi? Admirable aspiration, but to expect anything definitive as "100% Word of God" for or against NanoFate, before franchise ends (and even then), might be overdoing it.
Saying Fate is Nanoha's best friend confirms, or denies, nothing. It simply reiterates what everyone already knew.

Nah, there's plenty more than just you 3. Demi and Koveras Alvane are two others off the top of my head. There are more around that just lurk and converse through PMs.

AS is seen by the rest of the fandom as being 'anti-NanoFate' and that any NanoFate fans here are persecuted and trolled for shipping it. This is likely due to a) people here not immediately jumping on the NanoFate bandwagon and actually examining things objectively and see that no pairing is canon. Or b) because I'm here

I know for a fact my Yuunoha signatures have driven away some of the more diehard NanoFate fans.

I can certainly see why they'd be all testy about this, but that doesn't mean I approve of it. With the movie sound stage we had the whole "Takamachi Family" thing, which people snapped up as irrefutable proof that NanoFate is canon. Naturally they completely ignore that family can mean different things and that close friends can be family. They see Nanoha and Fate being considered family as "That means they're a married couple! Because the only way for non-blood related people to become family is through marriage! (Or adoption, but it's not like Nanoha adopted Fate or something.)"

Obviously Nagumo's recent translation inconveniences that belief, and thus those desperate enough to hang onto their beliefs will try to invalidate this new information. In this case it's easy to accuse Nagumo of incorrect/bias translations, which is amusing seeing as how Nagumo translated the "Takamachi Family" thing in the first place!

So don't let it get to you, Nagumo. These are people who plug their ears and go "Lalala, I'm not hearing this, lalala!" when they hear something they don't want to. All of us here know that you're neutral on this whole subject, and thus your translations are objective and, from what I can tell, quite accurate. Thanks for all your hard work

Even with a fandom such as this, I can't really think of many cases of bias translating... I think the only instance I know of is with different translations for Vivid chapter 1. One group had Vivio describing Fate as Nanoha's best friend, and another group had Fate described as Nanoha's "most important person."

Almost as much as it pleases me that Yuuno doesn't get to talk in the commentary.

mielipuoli · 2011-01-01, 17:37

Poor Yuuno. Demoted to extra and then some...then again, there's also Admiral Grumpypants too, but at least Chrono got himself the best voice actor for StrikerS.

So far as I know, the closest that anything's come to a canon relationship (among the major girls at least, we always forget Chrono/Amy and Griffith/Lucino) is Subaru's outright declaration to Teana in the sound stages. It wasn't reciprocated directly, but you gotta give her points for at least going that far.

Nagumo · 2011-01-01, 17:53

There's also a magic dictionary right behind the DVD commentator intro.

Spoiler for Large image:

Farewell/Parting

The two girls, who met, fought, misunderstood each other utterly, and finally come to an understanding.
The girl who reached out with her hand and feelings, and the girl who reached out to take/accept it.
They exchange ribbons to remember each other by as the two share tears and smiles as they bid each other farewell.
(Trans note: Being a little poetical here. But I think it captures the mood best)

Oh, I see. I didn't even realize you had a blog!

Wow, I can't even wrap my head around that kind of response...

Magic Dictionary
Stinger Blade

A spell that create many magical blades, the spell can be shot/discharged to destroy multiple targets.
It also possible to have each individual blade target a different, unique target.
It is difficult to defend efficiently against this attack of magical blades due to its target control, and is an extremely effective mass group/anti personnel attack.

Nihilanth · 2011-04-22, 17:26

Teana's going on leave is, apart from her culpability or the implications it has for her career, a fairly significant step toward maturity for her. In StrikerS, after almost hitting Subaru during the hotel incident, she decided to push herself even farther to make up for her mistake, and did not take being put off duty (even considering the other Forwards and Signum were merely on standby while Nanoha, Fate and Vita attacked the drones) well at all. Here, she's taking a step back after (at least in her perception) a mistake, so that rather than plunge back in and make another mistake while trying to make up for her failing, she will come back when she's ready in order to do better in the future. The decision is also similar to Subaru taking time off to train (and meeting Touma in the process) after the devastating fire in Force.

Do you mind if I link that for the people over at Mai-Universe? I noted there were several Mai-HiME tracks (like the drinking scenes on Disk 1) that you'd done beyond the ones customarily known.

I tried to go through the chinese transcript that Leoheart put it, but I just couldn't finish it. Praise Nagumo, for that user has far more patience than I do.

I for my part, plead Black Library ongoing reading that distracts me.

Track 1: Vivio and Friends After School Spoiler for Track 1: Vivio: It is year 79 of the new calendar (alt trans: 79 A.D.). Midchilda is definitely peaceful. And I am Takamachi Vivio, a fourth grade elementary student of the St. Hilde Magic Academy and I feel great/fine. Vivio: Einhart-san! Einhart: Vivio-san? Vivio: Sorry for making you wait. Einhart: Oh no, I only just arrived myself. Vivio: (background: So the Middle school today is… can’t hear the rest) This is Einhart Stratos-san, she is a first year middle school student of my school and a fellow practitioner of battle magic/Strike Arts and teammate. She’s so strong and cool, she’s the oldest in our team and the strongest. Tio: Meow. Vivio: Tio, you’re so cute today again! And this is Einhart-san’s favourite/trusted device. A kitten-, I mean, a leopard-type magic device. Asteon, also known as Teo. It’s also very cute. And this is my favourite/trusted device gifted to me by my mamas. Sacred Heart, also known as Chris, is with me at school today. Einhart: Vivio-san, is Chris-san saying something? Vivio: Oh sorry, it’s just saying hello to Einhart-san and Teo. Einhart: I see… can’t hear Vivio: Chris doesn’t speak or do facial expressions, so it’s a bit hard to understand what its saying but don’t worry, I understand it perfectly. Einhart: I’ve thought I’ve gotten pretty used to understanding it but it appears that I don’t communicate as well as Vivio-san. Vivio: Eheheh. I don’t understand all of Teo’s meows as well either. Teo: Meow? Meow? Meow! Vivio: Er… I guess it’s asking ‘why don’t you understand everything?’ or something. Einhart: It’s saying that it’s doing its best to be understandable. Vivio: Ahaha, and I’ll do my best to understand too. Teo: Meow! Rio: Vivio! Einhart-san! Corona: Sorry for the wait! Vivio: ah, Rio. Corona! Rio: Aw man, sorry. We were at the staff room. Corona: Rio was on class duty today. Einhart: Thanks for hard today too Corona-san. Corona: Thank you very much, Einhart-san. Rio: Teo~! You look good today too. Chris, could you come over here too? Vivio: This here is also my friend and a fellow classmate I’ve known since 1st year, Corona. And my other friend I just made at the end of my semester, Rio. They’re both my fellow teammates. Our team coach is teacher/master Nakajima Nove who is training us in magic combat/Strike Arts. Rio: Well then, Team Nakajima, all four present!

Short and sweet... 2: Fate and Teana Spoiler for Track 2: Fate: I, Fate Testarossa-Harlaown, am a TSAB HQ Commissioned Officer (Enforcer). I pursued this career following the footsteps of my admirable mother and older mother. Before I knew it, a decade of service passed. With my slowly expanding number of young capable/reliable juniors, we do our utmost to protect today’s peace in the dimensional seas. Fate: These are the Heinberg Incident/Case investigative reports. There are no problems with it. Thanks for your hard work, Enforcer Teana. Teana: Thank you very much Enforcer Fate. Fate: All that’s left is to leave it to the Justice Ministry/Courts. This took awhile, you did well. Teana: It took awhile but I didn’t want leave it half done. Thank you very much. Oh, where’s Shari-san today…? Fate: I saw her for a bit today but she went straight home right after. She hasn’t been home lately, her mom must miss her so I told her to go home and take it easy. Teana: I see, Shari-san’s worked very hard too. Fate: Oh that reminds me Teana, what are you doing? You pretty much finished everything at hand right? Teana: Hm, let’s see. It seems so. There are just some minor procedures/forms and phone calls left that I need to make. But after that, I’m done. Fate: Same with me, I’m done for today. If you want, why don’t you come to my home and have dinner with me tonight? Teana: Really? Is that okay? Fate: Yes, just a little celebration for finishing the case. Teana: Thank you very much, I will. Fate: Ah, Nanoha and Vivio will be there too. Is that all right? Teana: Of course, besides it’s pretty much a given they would be there. Fate: Today, Nanoha is going make a hotpot tonight. Teana: That’s great. __________________ I do not like Kansai-ben, but I do like Hayate-chan! Also, Canadian here, not actually Japanese.
