For those interested in how much thought went into such a mundane comic, please check the translation notes! The left comic (Singing Haiku) had to be adjusted slightly to best get the joke across.

093translateNotes:

  • The left comic was a tough one. I felt it could be better. Translating was straightforward, but the main joke would be literally lost in translation. The joke revolved around the fact that, in Japanese, the word for singing and song (歌/歌う) can also be used for classical poetry/reciting poetry.
  • With the above in mind, I tried a lot of different approaches to making it flow naturally, but in English the closest I could get was saying “to sing one’s praises” (often through poetry). But it sounded really awkward to say “I support my allies by singing one’s praises…” or “singing their praises.”
  • The other joke still comes through, however, in that Corrin was rather impressed with the mundane Haiku coming off as potentially “deep” song, when really he just misunderstood the sing vs poetry joke.
  • As a result, I included the brief Translator’s Note, but set out to avoid doing this too often when translating these comics. This one needed one, or else the entire comic would have to be changed.
  • For those interested, the first Haiku was more literally, “Yukimura scolds me/gets scolded when his glasses break”, with the “scolded” a pun on “big round eyes”. So I figured “big round eyes” and “burn into my soul” would combine the two ideas while still adhering to the 5-7-5 structure.
  • The second haiku about the loincloth is more accurate and just reworded slightly, but she is referring to laundry she forgot to hang up.
  • The title is actually “One-Haiku Poem” (or one-verse poem) if it were translated literally, but I changed it to “Singing Haiku” as a way to get the pun idea across better.

FE Fates Localization: Flora Death Quote Comparison (Minor-Major)

Flora

This is another post in my ongoing Fire Emblem Fates localization comparison posts! I discuss anything from major to minor changes here as I play through the game.

Today, I look at Flora’s death quote in English and Japanese. It is a major change (to the quote itself), but a minor change (to the overall game/story). That is why it is labeled as “Minor-Major” for more clarification.

Please note that this post is purely informative and may share some opinion, but this does not mean the change is necessarily good or bad. A change is just a change that is being looked into, and you can be the judge of whether you like it or not!

It is all just for fun and curiosity for me. : )

Fire Emblem Fates Localization: Conquest Ch. 11 “You and your loopholes” (Minor Change)

FEIFWallpaper

This is one post in my series of Fire Emblem Fates localization comparison posts! I discuss anything from major to minor changes here as I play through the game. Today, we look at a scene from Chapter 11 in Conquest. I was curious and was asked to look into it, too. It is really minor, so I decided to do this post today too.

There are plot spoilers, so please be wary as you go forward.

Fire Emblem Fates: 4Koma & Character Book Character Artworks [ALL]

00Cover

I decided to make a compilation post for the (untranslated) character pages from Fire Emblem Fates: 4Koma & Character Book (ファイアーエムブレムif 4コマ・キャラクターガイドブック) for people who just wanted the art regardless of the translation.

I am steadily working on translating the entire book however, which can be found here. I cover a new profile and following comic (comics not posted here) each day.

Please support the authors by buying a physical copy yourself! It makes for a fine addition to any Fire Emblem or manga collection, and does not cost much either!

All scanning, editing, uploading was done on my free time and was rather time consuming. It is certainly a lot of work, and I am unemployed… so please consider donating if you like it! Any amount (no matter how small) is much appreciated and helps me keep going on a daily basis.

You can download all the artwork in bulk here.

All the text on the pictures below are the same as their character profiles, which can be found translated here.

If you share it on your own site, all I ask is you please link back to this site in some fashion. : )

Note that the first few pages are a little blurry on the edges. I hope to rescan them at a later date. It should improve after just a few pages!

Finally, all the artists and the characters they did can be found at the end of the post.

Fire Emblem Fates: 4Koma & Character Book Translations

00CoverSTATUS: COMPLETE

My copy of Fire Emblem Fates: 4Koma & Character Book (ファイアーエムブレムif 4コマ・キャラクターガイドブック) finally came in.

Like last time with Fire Emblem Awakening: 4Koma Kings, I scanned, cleaned, translated, and uploaded them myself (with a few cleaning exceptions, credited on their respective pages). Each page has its own post, but this is the compilation post for all pages in one neat place.

This book contains full body artworks of every playable character in FE14 (if/Fates) as well as two four panel comics that feature each character on every page.

Please support the authors by buying a physical copy yourself! It makes for a fine addition to any Fire Emblem or manga collection, and does not cost much either!

I will not offer the raw scans on this site, but feel free to ask for them in email if interested!
