I'm really looking forward to seeing Chimera.

I guess the Specials stopped using white Leos after MS became mass-produced and MS battles became the norm.

Can't wait for my 1xR *grins*

Even though I still wonder why they needed to work on Gundam Wing again. i'm so afraid they might now waste one of my favorite anime ever :/ Anime ending aren't what they were anymore, I hope they won't waste GW >_<

I am going to refrain from commenting on the whole shipping glasses thing on the translation lest people get butthurt about it. *sighs* I just want a translation that has zero shipping politics involved and tells me what's in the damned chapter. I think I learned more from Babelfish than this.

Besides, the shipping stuff is still fair game discussion-wise. -_-

@Lolipopo Yeah, waiting on that too but best not to hope too much. You're an artist? Got DA?

Agreed. I guess we should just be happy someone is translating the novel but I wish the shipping spin was left for the comments section or somewhere else.

Humn. Two comments on this one (not touching the shipping bs, since we all seem to be in agreement on that) :

1. Guess we know how Odin and Heero met now- at least somewhat. That answers one gaping backstory hole... Though what happened to that mention of Heero's parents being introduced at some point? Guess we'll see.

2. Finally some mention of more OZ chars- Zechs and Noin... Kinda WTFing at Noin...crying, though. Seems vaguely OOC but, I guess they ARE still "kids", after all. Though if Noin was like, 12 in Heero's E0, then here she's gotta be... yeesh.

Or is this retconned now? Must be. Does anyone have a clear understanding of all the new dates/timeline shizz? I guess I could try looking through the translations so far to figure out the "new" timelines. Either way, I guess that means the one in the back of Episode Zero's not accurate anymore!

It looks like we'll get more, story wise, in the next chapter. Maybe we'll learn what happened to princess Heerora in the end :P
What I'm really hoping for are really revelations about Heero's past before Odin, we really don't know anything about that, and if they fulfill this point correctly (though I don't know if I want something crazy of a classical "parents died because of war") I might end up liking this novel.

Now, we can't really blame her for the shipping part, I know if it was me I would have made a fuss over the the apparence of the capsule (and cry to no end cause it's a giant death flag for the Queen of the World :/)

And yep I'm on DA, I'm a kind of fanartist :')

@macchafrap Understandable. Thank you for clarifying for the thread. We look forward to more from you in the future.

Anyway, back to business. I found this while browsing Pixiv and it was titled: 【そのうち消します】GWFT(小説)落書き

Spoiler for size:


Thoughts? Why the hell is Quatre serving tea? O_O

Inevitably you do realize that this will come across in your translations unknowingly, right?

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.

I have no idea why Qautre is serving tea. What happened to his butler?

Can anyone translate the Japanese?

Fanart, but... The pertinent ones:

Heero #1: I'll kill you.
Quatre: Calm yourself, Heero. For the time being/First of all, let's have tea!
Heero #3: What's with this guy's obnoxious face? Kill...
Duo: This guy's the Aurora Princess? I'm a helluva lot stronger. (something like that).

Pfffft thanks, Deacon.

It is my sincere wish to see Heero just belt Jr. in the face. As if his dad wasn't obnoxious enough, this one's 10x worse.

Duo wasn't that obnoxious. Jr. does need to get rocked though.

Oh no, I don't think he was, but Heero sure did/does.

True. But when you're a walking zombie, anyone who speaks in complete sentences is obnoxious.
