See the complete Demonbane pastebin for everything including project D2  Nitroplus 10th anniversary book Nitroplus Complete Project D2 proposal by Haganeya Jin (Some additional details from Haganeya's twitter: http://togetter.com/li/41991) Summary + partial translation LOST WORLD Demonbane's Big Bang Impact destroys all the Great Old Ones, all the Outer Gods (including all avatars of Nyarlathotep and Yog-Sothoth and Shub-Niggurath), the solar system, the galaxy, other galaxies, and then the entire universe, and lets off a metallic warcry, that might also be a cry of lamentation, in the midst of the void where even time has ceased to exist. But it still hides a glimmer of hope in its heart. STORMBRINGER A turbulent age filled with wars fought by magic. Hadou Zaibatsu clashes with the Church of Starry Wisdom. Daijuuji Kuzaku and Demonbane Twosword's world. A failed summoning of a dark god fractures the world, turning it into a game for the chaos. The knight chase...

Have a separate Twitter account just for realtime updates on this LP. So yeah, I got Scramble Commander 2 for 800 yen. Never played this (or SC1) before. It's not a direct sequel to SC1, just numbered 2 because it has the same system (it's an RTS). No videos. I don't have any capture shit. Just text and pictures.  DISCLAIMER: I WILL TAKE MY OWN TIME TO PLAY THIS AND RESERVE THE RIGHT TO GIVE UP HALFWAY THROUGH OR ABANDON THE GAME FOR MONTHS AT A TIME* *Now that I've actually played it though it's pretty good so I'll probably advance a a decent enough speed Blah blah blah MU attacked 15 years ago and Tokyo Jupiter, Macross drops from the sky ten years ago and there was a war over it, one year war and shit, five years ago the gitaijuu from Godannar were starting to fuck everyone over but "tokki" (tokushukidouheiki = "special mobile weapon" = super robots) were mass produced and beat them. Super robot were considered overpower...

Just some stuff from this book (and no, I don't have the first volume. May get it later.) Stuff translated from Turn A Gundam Complete Record Collection 2: The Memory of Second Wind About the Sackträger (ties in to G-Reco stuff) At the end of the Universal Century, it seemed that the countless space wars would finally come to an end, but the unending consumption had reduced Earth's resources close to zero. During this age, Earth was still the center of human civilization, and mankind sought to restore civilization on Earth. To do this they needed massive amounts of materials, which had to be mined from asteroids which were moved near to Earth. The Sackträger's predecessor, the fixed orbital elevator, was built in order to make moving the mined resources down to Earth easier. This megastructure was also supposed to be a symbol of peace, and Earth did in fact have peace for a few hundred years after the construction of the orbital elevator. It seems tha...

Some brainless fuck named Revenger on Spacebattles is linking to this post and yet somehow managing to get every single fucking thing wrong oh wow. Here's the Demonbane timeline for those retards who say DYN Freaks and Blasterz aren't canon or are prequels or whatever the fuck the shit they have in place of brains can come up with: http://imgur.com/a/hxU9d ---------------------------------- Nothing to do with bad translations this time. Just translating stuff. DYN Memo Setting stuff (keywords and explanations) for the manga DYN Freaks by Haganeya Jin and Soratokumo, from Haganeya Jin's twitter. http://twilog.org/J_hagane/search?word=DYN_memo http://togetter.com/li/542186 Mashinkishi Knight Chaos『魔神騎士ナイトカオス』 Heisei remake of the Showa tokusatsu show Chaos Kamen.

I'll be mostly offline a until I clear Sen no Kiseki II. Of course to clear the game I have to GET the game which means I have to wait for fucking Sagawa who are taking over a fucking day to ship me a game from Tokyo to Tokyo. I took the day off for this. I woke up at 8 AM hoping it'd arrive in the morning. It's 1 fucking PM and the fuckers still haven't even gotten the game to my delivery centre. Wow, fuck these guys. Are they bringing it on foot or something? This isn't the first time Sagawa fucked me over either, they once managed to LOSE A PACKAGE and then suddenly brought it over a month later with holes in the box . Fuck Sagawa. Edit: It's TWO FUCKING PM and they still haven't gotten it to my delivery centre. It takes them a day for a fucking half hour drive. I just looked it up on Google Maps. It's half a fucking hour from their business centre to the delivery centre for my neighbourhood. My package left the business centre YESTERDAY ...

The text in that reads Ro-suke (nickname for Russians used in the war): "I'm dyiiiiing" Japanese soldier: "I will finish you off!" Ro-suke (in the background): "Retreat!" Such scathing political commentary.

So I'm looking through Unext for movies to watch. Names of movies being changed to fit their target region better isn't anything special, but Japan still manages to make me go "oh, wow" sometimes. Edit: Made this. Edit: Here's another one. Tatari means "curse", and the subtitle "noroi no yakata" means "the cursed house". So "CURSE: THE CURSED HOUSE". Also "tatari" is the sort of curse less associated with western stuff and more associated with the Japanese countryside where old people warn of ancient curses (an old lady around 90 yelling "TATARI JAAAAA" at people is practically a trope) so it's a horrible mismatch with the film for anyone fluent in Japanese.

Source Yeah that's some retarded shit.

Q: In Gundam UC, Minerva is referred to as a princess, but Zeon was a principality (or duchy, depending on the translation). What gives? A: Duchy/Principality of Zeon is a mistranslation. There is no real translation. In real life 公国/ koukoku means duchy/principality, yes, but this is because in real life the 公/ kou comes from 公爵/ koushaku = duke (principality comes from how in French a prince is also a duke, hence Monaco is a koukoku ). In Gundam, however, Degwin is NOT a duke, but a " kouou " (公王). This title is completely made up . The 公/ kou in 公国/ koukoku comes from this made-up word, and thus it is NOT a duchy/principality. Since there is no real translation for kouou , there is thus also no real translation for koukoku . The " ou " (王) in kouou (公王), however, means "king", which makes it clear that yes, he is indeed royalty. So there's nothing wrong with referring to Minerva as a princess. Furthermore, in Japanese, she's never...

Dug up my copy of the official US release of CCA, figured I might as well give the subtitles a look. Not watching the movie in its entirety at this point, just jumping to memorable parts. 「なんでこんなものを地球に落とす？」 Literal translation:  "Why would you drop such a thing on Earth?" "Crashing this to Earth"... I don't know, since when did you crash things to others? And where's the question mark? 「だから抹殺すると宣言した」 "That's why I declared that I would kill them all."  Yes this openly contradicts the stuff from later on where he says his goal is to get people to move into space but that's what it says. And minor and inconsequential change, but "declared" becomes "decided". 「人が人に罰を与えるなどと！」 Another minor change- Amuro says that people (in general) don't have the right to punish others. 「私、シャア・アズナブルが粛清しようというのだ、アムロ！」 And then this . "I, Char Aznable, will purge them, Amuro!" becomes this load of...
