Kaiji Part 3

Jan 02, 2011 21:55

As any Kaiji Manga enthusiast knows, Hox and Zawanons are currently saying that they will translate Kaiji Part 3 whenever they get around to it. I've done some research, and have found that Hox says he'll translate it somewhere near the end of 2011, and has said elsewhere that he doesn't mind if people pick it up first.

What I suggest is that we ( Read more... )

I suggest you try talking Kikka into this.

Is he still interested in Kaiji? I lost his email a while ago, would you mind contacting him for me?

You could have looked that post with his e-mail in this community up yourself, but anyway, here it is: http://community.livejournal.com/zawa_zawa/89774.html

It seems that he's quite busy with actual paying work at the moment... I can't exactly blame him. But yeah, unless someone wants to shell out some money to pay for it or he frees up some room in his schedule, he's probably not going to be up for it.

I'd be willing to help with any proofreading, editing or cleaning. I've not been a part of a project like this before but I have related experience. I hope you find translators, I really would have no idea where to begin with that.

sonickrazy January 3 2011, 23:43:03 UTC

What type of experience? Like, picture editing, proofreading, etc? Thanks for the help!

uauauaua January 4 2011, 09:35:18 UTC

Yeah, I've been using Photoshop for a long time and I'm good at English. It's hard to say this kind of thing without sounding arrogant, haha...

Ah, cool... is English your second language, or do you just mean grammar? Either way, good to know someone I can count on.

This is an excellent idea, and I'm really glad you're stepping up to help out Kaiji fans. Best of luck finding a translator! :)

Thank you very much! ^^

This is the best post I have ever read on this comm. Not even joking. My week has officially been made.

I might be able to do some cleaning and/or proofreading, I don't have a whole lot of experience in proofreading, but I have photoshop and sai, and I can clean up a picture pretty well.

But that's only if you still need the help or decide to go on with this project. Post more if you come across any information or make any progress, keep us all updated! :3

sonickrazy January 5 2011, 00:41:26 UTC

Ah, thanks for the help! We can definitely use a cleaner to help with this! If you do know any translators, can you send them here? Thanks!

Update sonickrazy January 5 2011, 02:01:24 UTC

Two things:

I just put up a thread for recruiting a translator... if you think there's anything I need to include in addition, please let me know! http://mangahelpers.com/forum/showthread.php?p=2244356#post2244356

If you want to help in any way, can you sign up for mangahelpers.com and tell me your username here or at shinichiakiyama@hotmail.com? It will help me keep track of everything and eventually show who's doing what. Thanks!
