translator of the highest-rated game of all time @yukinogatari.moe · Oct 19

Hey sickos!

I'm Yuki, a gender-confused ace-adjacent porn peddler, sometimes J-E translator (The House in Fata Morgana, etc.) and more often programmer (fulltime MangaGamer, making all manner of erotic and non-erotic game), living on the outskirts of Tokyo while watching more anime than is healthy.

The promotional art for the visual novel The House in Fata Morgana, depicting a black-haired maid with emerald eyes and purple dress, standing beside a white-haired girl with red eyes. A large, bony hand is encroaching on them from the top right of the frame.

I handled J-E translation and programming on this game and its two follow-up titles.

The promotional art for the video game Sword Art Online Alicization Lycoris, depicting a black-haired swordsman pointing a black sword toward the viewer, a blonde-haired blue-eyed young man dressed in blue standing behind him, and a long blonde-haired blue-eyed young woman dressed in blue with large gold shoulderplates standing even further behind them and facing away from the camera.

I was the head J-E translator on this title, handling the majority of the main story and UI.

The promotional art for the visual novel Sona-Nyl, depicting a short purple-haired character in a blue and white dress with arms outstretched toward a notebook. Behind the character is an assortment of other imagery from the game, including a large crescent moon with a sinister smirk, mushrooms, a train, and several other characters.

I was the programmer on the English release of this game, porting the title from its original engine to Ren'Py.

The promotional art from the visual novel Steam Prison, depicting a long pinkish-red-haired woman with blue eyes pointing a sword at the camera, dressed in a red military uniform. To her right is a brown-haired man with glasses, dressed in black and purple and holding a gun. Behind them is a white-haired man with a tall white hat and white clothes.

I was the programmer on the English re-release of this game, porting the title and its expansion content from its original engine to Ren'Py.

did the tl catch a bout of cross-line dyslexia here lol (the honorific is kun but the line immediately beneath the name starts with [chan]to)

translation of a text message on a phone: "Makio-chan, you haven't responded in like a week. You alive? How goes?"

tl note: the JP uses makio-kun and not chan.

these godawful narou boy genius reincarnation series are almost always too busy fellating their ~hyper competent~ leads to do any coherent storytelling, and there were like six separate instances of it in a single episode, to the detriment of literally everything else lol. into the trash with you.

dude almost falling off the screen @ protag: "You are simply amazing. My hat's off to you."

older man @ protag: "I could not be more impressed today, Your Highness."

pink-haired dude @ protag: "You've already mastered it? Incredible."

fantasy script: english, but with half the strokes inverted

a map of a fantasy world, with a label in a "fantasy" script over a city. the caption calls it "the Meeres Empire" though you can clearly read it says "Meeles Empire" in mostly english just with some of the strokes in the letters moved around.

first encounter grabbing her by the face was a pretty poor first impression imo, but I do also think there's potential for things to balance out which is why I'm not bailing just yet

it's a specific Type you sometimes see in joseimuke romances, the love interest who makes a habit of casually violating boundaries, physical touching or doing things they were explicitly asked not to--both of which he does that ep--that I just find unpleasant. there are other ways to be assertive

this is so disinterested in its own copy-pasted premise it couldn't even bother to come up with a half-coherent excuse for the standard annulment/exile
