One of these days I might even be a translator. Wouldn't that be horrifyingly fun?

Hey there! Good morning! Got an update.
I've been hard at work on my writing projects while balancing day-to-day life stuff, and what I had planned for this channel is still on the back burner. But, I found some free time and started some preliminary work/research on how to make future translation projects easier and faster for me, as I have little time to work on it and want to get as much done with my time as possible. I also wanted to produce videos at a higher quality, so I did some looking into that as well. I can say now that I have (after much testing) found a workflow that is not as jank as when I did it the first time. When the time comes and I start working on it, it should cut my time translating and editing in half.

In other news, I have gone back to Yukino's route and fixed some of the translations that were a bit off, and some text issues that bothered me after multiple viewings. The re-uploads of the first two parts that I did were just visual changes to the text to make it consistent with later parts when I got into a better flow, and didn't really touch the actual translation. This second pass, I have updated on both fronts and also plan to export at 4K. I have also created a full route version, which is almost 8 hours long! This new video will be posted soon, but I am still thinking on what to do with the 4K uploads. I'll have to think about it for now, but going forward all videos that I upload will be at this quality.

That's all for now. Thanks for sticking around!

Been a while, huh? Happy new year!
I'll be uploading two updated videos of the first two parts of Yukino's route that were originally on rumble. I had made these changes and left it there exclusively because the videos had a higher bit rate. However, it seems they started to limit video quality on videos over certain lengths, so I'll be bringing these two versions over to youtube. They'll be unlisted and linked under their respective videos. This is purely an aesthetic thing, but the new versions fixed some editing errors and improved the text boxes.

I'm currently working on my writing projects, but for the visual novel translation side of things, I have begun preliminary work on a route that I wanted to work on. More than likely I will not begin uploading them until I have finished translating and editing the videos.

I finished translating and recording the final episode. I'm a little excited so it might come out sooner than expected...

I managed to get caught up, so the next part will probably be uploaded tomorrow.

The final 2 parts might be delayed a little. I had an injury over the weekend and had to deal with that for a few days, so I can't guarantee that I will be ready to post it this week.

Part 10 will be posted some time tonight, going to take time next week to finish the ending. So probably no video next week unless I finish early.

Part 7 will be uploaded this morning, found a typo at the last second and had to re-upload it.
