Quick update 13.11.08

Wow, I visit the page and I feel like the group has been dead. O_oU It's so quiet...

Poll #3 closed with Shirogane earning the distinction of being Most Loved and Most Hated Character. (He tied with Lulu for Most Hated). Now there is a new poll, and I am entirely responsible, so feel free to lampoon me if you so desire.

Anyway, now that several large papers are out of the way I have a bit more breathing room. Nevermind the Finnish test on Monday and the fact I have another paper due next week. With more papers the week after that.

But I do have a bit more free time to be translating more for about a week. I just went through the second half of episode 16 and got every line except for five down in one go. I'll go through again tonight after I've done my Japanese work (so I have fresh stuff in my mind) and that should pretty much take care of translating episode 16.

Episode 15.2 is still being checked, for some reason. That should be finished soon, if I heard correctly, so 15 can start the sub process in the next little bit. I'll send 16.2 off for checking probably tomorrow, and 2/3 of Monochrome Factor will have been gone through. Hurray!

I would promise quick work on episode 17, but it's the time of year my Sonic the Hedgehog patriotism kicks in and how better to celebrate it than buying the (coughTwilightPrincessripoffcough) game that will be released next Tuesday? XD I think I'll find some time to translate 17 over the weekend, so perhaps the episode will be translated by the time I get my game, but I will again make no promises.

For those of you that are now angry at my bred fan-ism, I will promise something MF for you: my scanner is now working, so you can have box set 3 cover scans by Sunday. I've also just (literally) now received an e-mail saying that box set 4 has just been shipped, so that should be here around Thanksgiving time. I'll tell you now that 4's slipcover is delicious for those ShiroAki fans~.

Another fun little fact about me, since you all like me so much: study abroad Japan 2009 interviews, probably next week. I found out yesterday at a meeting there's only ten available slots for going (and thirty people including myself have expressed interest), so please cross your fingers for me. I'll know whether or not I'll be in Osaka for my birthday in a month.

And that is all. You may go.

No lampooning here, I just didn't want to whine about the next ep, so I was a good girl and kept quiet (though I DID check the site twice a day, lol!)Hope you're celebrating your next B-day in Osaka, sweetie, good luck!! And as always, thank you, and the rest of the Trinity for your hard work :)
