Contrary to popular belief, while
letrainblu was busy working on Altair, I was NOT just sitting on my ass! In fact, I decided to start a VERY long project.
I will now be translating the Durarara!! light novel!
Don't ask why I started at chapter 10. It is already translated though, so enjoy it! I saved it as a pdf in an attempt to combat apparent translation thefts. If there's some problem with it just let me know, and I'll see what I can do.
[vol. 1 ch. 10] Also please let me know if you spot any errors whatsoever. I had
letrainblu edit it for me, but there might still be some typos. One thing I should mention, though, is that I took quite a few liberties with the translations to try to make them sound as much like actual English as I could. I reformatted some sections and took out a couple details here and there that only detracted from the meaning when translated. If, however, you happen to spot at typo or a line that makes no sense, feel free to point those out!
Ha ha I found one already, so
Typos: end of page one, the very last sentence should end with "people under you!'"
If there are a lot of typos, I'll fix them then re-upload.
If anyone's interested in any other completed translations of the Durarara!! light novels, I've compiled a list here. It also displays what I, and other users, intend to translate in the future. Any red hyperlinks are the ones
szj_scans did.
