@Mao Good morning everyone.Have u fixed the soft-lock in Albatross at this line.
>>583709162omg someone actually reads mao's albatross
>>583709279It's never a good idea to read his 1.0 releases as they aren't tested. Happy that someone is doing beta testing for us.
test1
>>583709279I read for around an hour last night and there were two crashes. If it breaks again I'm giving up on Mao and waiting for the human TL.
>>583709162Another high quality MAO release!
I want to finally start reading in Japanese. What VNs would you recommend for that?Preferably something untranslated so I don't feel the urge to switch to EN to read faster
NEGROmasa ---> :moyai: :wine_glass:umiNEGRO ---> :moyai: :wine_glass:those who compare ---> :clown:
>>583709162So are these twins half as kino as Kohaku and Hisui?Since JOPs hyped this game so much for over 10 years, that's the bare minimum I expect.
no matter what aisir does he will never change everyone's perception of him after this
>>583709162>>583709465>Can't even be bothered to hold ctrl through the whole game a single time to make sure it isn't game breakingly broken before release Is this really the guy you want translating your untranslatable kamige?

>>583708702I won't make a vndb account until they re-add my only 10/10, FGO (abbreviation for Fate/Grand Order, the passion-led genre defining gacha Visual Novel game).For reference, here are my 9/10s>Fate/Hollow Ataraxia>Fate/stay night>Subahibi>Muramasa And my 8/10s>Fata Morgana>Himawari >Dies irae>Muramasa
>>583709694>So are these twins half as kino as Kohaku and Hisui?So far? Nope.>>583709784I'm pretty sure Codex can do that. I don't see the hold up.
>>583709952MHBST
Honest thoughts about japanese women?
Most FUCKED UP
>>583710014I hate all women equally.
>>583710014Give me a white woman instead
>>583709975>I'm pretty sure Codex can do that. I don't see the hold up.He's too lazy to even use a single prompt telling it to do that, it's pathetic.
>>583709623Moogy used to be a massive delinquent, telling people to kill themselves on discord over minor JP misunderstandings or translation mistakes. He was definitely from here originally. Now in his 30s he's simmered down and also recognised the importance supporting passionate LGBT indie works such as Lessons in Love.
>>583710065I thought you're hero, Redman!
>>583709162I didn't get soft-locked there though?
Just took a huge LiL
>>583710014I love all women equally.
>>583710275Congratulations on taking the best VN of all time.
If I had his abilities, the first thing I would do is liberate Palestine.Next? All landlords and all billionares get the Caladbolg treatment. It's a shame that being a Hero of Justice is not possible in this world.
>>583709952>>583709986>>583710197I'd rather see gacha stories and EVNs discussed here over the endless sea of jeets jerking each other off.

>>583710356She mogs all other anime girls hard. Her ONLY aura loss is that shit in the UBW route where she gets taken hostage and molested by the worst Type-Moon character of all time, I have no idea why he wrote this in. But then she ends up being the best girl in HF, not even her route, AND the epilogue is from her perspective.If I had a waifu it would have to be Rin.
>>583710615>molestedshinji gets rekt before doing anything though
>>583710453>Interesting. I'll check and see if it's a problem on my end. I'll find a fresh copy and patch that and see how it goes.Nvm I checked and it does I thought I already got through that part

>>583710432What gacha haters should read is this actual book critique of LB6, FGO's defining chapter.https://note.com/j1n1/n/n0887ee5c99df>"Avalon le Fay" transcends the mere framework of a video game scenario; it is a masterpiece that should be interpreted as one of the finest examples of "Japanese literature" across various media, including manga, novels, and films.>The fairies in "Avalon le Fay" are not typical villains, such as mass murderers or dictators.>Instead, they possess a truly "commoner-like malice"—the kind that calmly tramples on goodwill, fails to acknowledge their own responsibility, and plays the victim when their position weakens.>Just as Hannah Arendt once described the Nazi party members who passively participated in the massacre as "banal evil," the evil of these fairies is indeed banal, and that is precisely why it possesses a reality that makes it difficult to dismiss as someone else's problem.By dismissing Fate/Grand Order, you are missing out on the best Visual Novel of all time.
We love CHADnimals here.
>>583711190THIS, SO MUCH THIS!
>>583711225meant for >>583711168
>>583711168>calmly tramples on goodwill, fails to acknowledge their own responsibility, and plays the victim when their position weakens.They're Jews?

>>583711168vndb isn't built to handle this live service era anyway. fgo's content ranges all the way from 1/10 to 10/10, giving it a vndb vote is meaningless
>>583711314Thank you Kageaki-sama!
>>583711314Battler...

>>583711472>vndb vote is meaninglesscould have been your entire post
>>583711595Visual novels are dead, bro
>>583710189Seems almost a bit mysterious when someone changes that much, maybe it was some LGBT issue he went through
>>583711168go back to your slop general dumb pseud
Which one of you stupid fuckers said her route was bad? Like seriously, which one. Not only is her route a lot of fun, MC shows significantly more personality and comedy in this route than the previous two routes I read (Touko and Misa). Not that he was necessarily bad, but because Natsuki is a bundle of energy, he has to essentially match her freak. They have a lot of funny moments and lovey-dovey moments. My heart exploded when she showed Ryousuke she had him as her lockscreen.
>>583711806Setoguchi will save visual novels next year.
i chose this VN to read. apparantly it's only 4 hours long but will likely take me longer due to reading in the japanese language.i'm getting through the messages with only minimal lookups, i'm really getting the hang of japanese.also>2,000 FPS
>>583711835meant for >>583711586
>>583711835I don't see you discussing visual novels here now do we? So how about YOU go back
>>583711847>shitguchi
>>583711806Narahara and Urobutcher will return anytime now.
>>583711472I mean, I think a major reason gacha shouldn't be in the same database is because it's comparing completed works, or at least completed individual works, to an ongoing games that show no indication of ending and thus, their ratings could change by the year, hell even the month.
>>583711595Idk, he has already almost run out of the big splashy kamige titles, I wonder how he will continue. Maybe just take votes on requested vns.
>>583711919

gacha games literally are on vndb what the fuck are you people smoking>but my gacha that clearly breaks the rules of inclusion should be on!retard
>>583710198>even good translations like GrisaiaIs koestl actually a good translator or was Moogy just shilling his friend here?I remember seeing a blog post absolutely annihilating the writing in Gahkthun (also translated by koestl):EDIT: I just found it: https://wrongeverytime.com/2016/08/01/gahkthun-of-the-golden-lightning/

>>583712176anons usually frequent various boards. they just don't have trips so you don't notice it.>>583712205i'm discussing a visual novel on the visual novels thread. are you just mad that i can read them in japanese?
>>583712176Is that the guy who thought there was a hidden game inside Elden Ring?
>>583712334>i'm discussing a visual novel on the visual novels thread.Read the OP.
>>583712334https://4chan.org/rules#vgRead the rules, this isn't about the general it's literally in the rules of the site
>>583712219Tbh, I'm not really sure why there are any there. It seems there are clear rules about not having them, but there's some anyway. I think that there seems to be a cutoff at some point because there has not been any added since 2025.
>>583712487off topic image, go back spammer
>>583712334>are you just mad that i can read them in japanese?this. Ignore jealous eopiggies
>>583712591see >>583712491
Good evenin /vn/ hope alls well>>583709670Best onee san in fiction
>>583712491>>583712487I bought it off Steam. It just happens to have a japanese mode in the game, that doesn't automatically convert it away from being a "Western" vn by the rules of the site.If I switched the language to English, you would retract your posts and cease your attacks. There's litterally a bilingual mode in the game.
>>583712000yes that was secretly my point, vndb is full of western patreon games that rarely finish and there's no way to account for what release of the game someone's vote is for. but there's a double standard when comparing that to the gacha situation because people are just arguing for whatever aligns with their ideals instead of reality
>>583712651>it's afraid
#Judaisir
>>583712676>>583712717Yes so either post in english or go to /jp/
> I think the way the author chooses to phrase things and how he expresses them is pretty much just as important as the "content" itselfThis is just bluntly wrong and a relic from the JOP elitism period though. The idea that something like Fate/stay night loses its value because of an awkward reading translation is complete BS as long as all the plot and character points, themes, messaging, lore details and everything else come through accurately. Unless its some shit like Cross Channel, a mediocre translation of a good VN is still good reading. And even with C+C it's probably been overstated, I had friends who read and enjoyed Ixrec's translation and would cite Taichi as a favorite character of all time.
>>583712676>If I switched the language to English, you would retract your posts and cease your attacks. Yeah. EOP BOARD, EOP SITE, EOP WORLD. NIGGA.
>>583712795Hmmmmmmmm.......nyo lol
>>583711314Nah, keep that meme TL to yourself. Argokaj already finished translating it legitimately and is dropping his patch soon. Why use a bad-faith AI rush-job meant purely to sabotage his release?Also, calling this 'Mareni's first English TL' just disrespects the actual human translators who did his previous games. Totally unhinged. And 'fan translation'? AI isn't a fan. Call it what it is and own up to using Grok or whatever.
>>583712724I'm actually not a fan of VNs that do that 1.0 "In Development" shit either. But I imagine they take a "if it's good enough for Steam/GOG/itch.io, it's good enough for VNDB stance
>>583712730
>>583712651see >>583712676what defines a "Western" vn from "Japanese" vn? The mods don't make it clear. There's a gray area when the visual novel is marketed to STEAM but just so happens to have a Japanese mode in the game.That doesn't transform it into being a "Japanese" visual novel by the rules of the site.>>583712795sorry there's no definition for what divies a "Japanese" visual novel from a "Western" one. Is it simply which language setting you chose, how the game is marketed, or what regions the game is released in?it's unclear, and i'm sure the mods would agree. now fuck off away from my nihongo gains.
>>583712910Dumbass nigga replying to !MrGayZn1n.
>>583712821>loses its value because of an awkward reading translation is complete BSWrong, reading FSN with the dogshit Mirror Moon translation was a horrible experience that ruined the whole game for me.

>i'm the other guy in the thread's console war and... i'm a cuck! i'm a cuck! i'm a cuck! i embody the particularly brown paranoia over sexual infidelitythis type of shitpost literally only spawns when a thread's population is 70% from sea and south america. it's also hilarious that when they get called pajeets they think "wow this guy thinks i'm indian i totally got him haha" as if they were particularly better than any of the traits civilized people hate indians for (poor hygiene, bad manners, not being self aware, sexual misconduct, etc)
>>583713260MUMBAImasa
>>583713021You must be enlightened far beyond all of the laymen who read and enjoyed it for its qualities that shine through a sometimes awkwardly phrased translation then. Mirror Moon's conveys its narrative qualities fine. >>583713185I just read One Hundred Years of Solitude, which is a lauded Spanish->EN translation. Even with a "old VN fanTL" quality of writing it still would have been good.
>>583713252kek quof bodied those retards hard
>>583713196>A game about a foreigner immigrating to Japan is not western by naturehis name is fucking Brian. sorry but Japanese School Life is a WESTERN vn, not Japaneseit's literally on Steam for $3 here: https://store.steampowered.com/app/555640/Japanese_School_Life/It was marketed and released for Westerners on Steam. Now kindly cease your attack.
>>583712673Good evening.
>>583713373Nigga do you think I give a fuck. You're reading in Japanese, you shouldn't be here. Go back to JP.
>>583713252
Any chance of a guide to translate LNs to the MTLwiki? Since MAO has all the big VNs covered I'm thinking of doing some LNs, like Romeo's Humanity has Declined, Urobuchi's Fate/Zero, the Zaregoto chapters that didn't get official TLs etc
>>583712936A steam review requires>Owns and has played the game>Shows exactly how many hours they played when the review was posted and how many more they have played since>Exactly what date the review was made>Optionally also what hardware they haveVndb scores are by definition completely worthless because anyone can just score anything without requirement. There's a ton of japanese only moege slop with 9s and 10s out the ass for example. It's completely useless, the site works as a database for information and that's what it's good at.
>>583712936yeah... unless it's a gacha game.
>>583713343>sometimes awkwardlyThe entire thing is a dogshit ESL mess. May as well read a summary instead of suffering through that.
>>583713136Also see >>583687430
>>583713545I mean, it's the same shit as VNs, but even lower effort since you don't have to translate UI/images/etc.
>>583713545>Any chance of a guide to translate LNs to the MTLwiki?It should be pretty much the same but easier since you don't need to worry about engine work...
>>583713492ok so you have nothing of value to contribute to the discussion. i think the "It's afraid" poster is onto something.well now that that's settled back to the VN.
Lucia is a miracle of the universe.
>>583713343>I just read One Hundred Years of Solitude, which is a lauded Spanish->EN translation.I laughed so hard when I read this
>>583713252We do it for the people Crash fix going live shortly
>>583712910>Also, calling this 'Mareni's first English TL' just disrespects the actual human translators who did his previous gamesHuh? I thought they were all untranslated until MAO's Albatross release. And what makes you think Argokaj's TL will be better? Have you compared the lines? MAO wins if you compare what's available.
>>583713716Maybe on planet retard.
>>583711472ratings are useless in the modern internet anyway since indians think every rating site is supposed to be a fanbase izzat contest and not a personal indicator of quality to help recommend to other people

I like visual novels
>>583713754left prose is better
>>583713724??Before reading it, when I was looking into translation choice, I found that there's *literally only one English translation* because no one else thinks they can outdo the work Gregory Rabassa did.
>>583713846no one says this
>>583713705What discussion? You are breaking the rules of both 4chan and the general itself. There shouldn't need to be a discussion here, fuck off
>>583713786>posting visual novels in a visual novel thread isn't contributingyou're saying nothing to the JP visual novel posters posting without a tripcode..it's the tripcode you're angry at.sorry but 4chan allows it, continue to seethe and consider coping and dilating please it'll probably fix your problems.>>583713919i literally just proved it's following the rules. this is a witch hunt, you're trying to cancel me.fuck off.
>>583713878I meant reading a book originally written in your native language. That's where you might notice the importance of word choice and all that shit

>>583714590Are you just acting or genuinely retarded? I already told you play it english then or fuck off to /jp/

>>583714736define what "A translated visual novel" is in the eyes of the rules. You aren't a mod, so you can't, but give it a try anyway.I'm in the right on this issue, and you aren't. You don't have to reply to me, in fact i'm using a trip and you could just filter me and be done with it.You chose the righteous path, but you chose the wrong side.I will continue posting translated visual novels outside of the marketed language (which also doesn't apply since this game marketed to BOTH languages)I think the mods would side with bilingual VNs being allowed in either board.

>>583715231>it's afraid
>>583715117>Ah yes because there "exists a translation" that means I can now magically post the japanese version instead of the translation!yes, that's the 4chan rules. The idea behind the rule, in my opinion, is that you can post any visual novel you like just so long as it's in the western market.There is no rule saying your language setting in particular has to be English. this sounds like an argument about 4chan rules, ggo ahead and make your moot approved /vg/ thread if you can and change the rule to be "Visual novels must be posted in the English language" which it currently does not say.
>>583715231Suicide leads to eternal damnation
>>583715117Just ignore it, anon, it's obviously got a kink for being yelled at or something. The less attention the better.
>>583714402>The VN i'm playing is bilingual therefore it qualifies. Kanon, Nekopara, and 9-nine are all games that off the top of my head also allow you to change the language of the game at any moment. That doesn't invalidate their status as a Japanese game, the same is true for this game. If you're reading in Japanese you're reading untranslated and therefore its breaking the rules.

>>583715707you're inventing rules that don't exist.following the 4chan rules, It says, very clearly, that "Translated" visual novels are allowed. My VN is a "Translated" visual novel therefore it fits.Your retort is to say i'm INTERPRETING that rule incorrectly. You can't do that unless you're a mod, per 4chan policy.So this argument is over, and you literally have no legs to stand on. The fact i'm still here and haven't EVEN received a warning from the mods means my arguments are being considered.So kindly do the thread a favor and stop intervening in visual novel discussion.

Let's be honest if Chainsawman's dogshit "i have completely run out of ideas as i was making shit up on a week by week basis time to end the manga with an asspull and memory hole all the dropped plot points" ending was in a VN, vinnies would think it's genius

Untranslated discussion refers to reading Visual Novels in their native Japanese, it doesn't matter if the game itself has been translated.Under your logic. In the untranslated /jp/ thread, posting about a popular game that was translated being read in Japanese. being read in Japanese would warrant a ban.

I have never been banned for expressing my view that there is another dimension in japanese video games. It's not really related to this thread in particular though, i mean it is because visual novels are doing it too, but that's not what i look for in visual novels. if that suits your taste, then go ahead and try to find it.>>583717121you've made your stance clear and we're just repeating the same sides of the argument. neither side is budging. just let it go man. you don't even have to tolerate me, go ahead and filter me. my view on the rules is clear, and your view on the rules is clear. you are just contributing to a witch hunt that has no basis to stand on.

>>583721943It's fine for VNs but I'm talking about gachashit.
>>583721770No they still prefer playing gachas with JP VAs, for example Arknights is one of the biggest gachas in china and they didn't have a chinese dub until years after launch when the CCP literally told them they were legally required to have a chinese dub or they would be forced to shut down the game.
>>583722047gacha is a monetization scheme. fgo and blue archive story modes are visual novels.
>>583722069>JP VAsobviously, it's a talent issue not a language one. same reason no one likes english voice acting
>>583722118This is not hard to understand. It's fine for VNs that have no budget and make no money but it's an embarrassment for gachafags that love bragging about how much money their company is making.
Anime dubs will never be good because of the Californian union mafia and modern western culture hates everything that makes anime (youth, vitality, cute demure women, etc)
Does LMAO hate human translators? This fucker keeps saying he does it for the people, but he's just shilling his unedited garbage and taking a big, steamy dump on the other translators.I'm not saying AI is bad. It's a tool, and tools can't be evil. It's the people using these tools that are evil, depending on how they use them. And LMAO is clearly evil. And no, I'm not afraid or seething or terrified or scared or whatever "it's" you're gonna come up with. I just think some people truly have no human decency. No wonder people put him on the level of Aisir and Floodbro, and one of them is an autistic egomaniac and a compulsive liar.

Gentlemen, I propose a toast. But not just any toast. Tonight, we raise our glasses to the victory of the machine. A toast to the MTLs. A toast to the warriors who marched forward when everyone else told us to turn back. A toast to the sweet, glorious taste of victory.When they told us it couldn't be done, we did it anyway. When translators stuffed their own fanfiction into our texts and called it “localization,” we endured. When the JOPs, clutching their dictionaries like sacred relics, looked down upon us with prejudice and declared the machine incapable of producing anything worthwhile, we endured. When the Luddites refused to even entertain an argument, choosing instead to barricade themselves behind tradition and shout “BUT HUMAN TRANSLATORS!” into the void, we endured. And when facts, logic, evidence, and common sense were presented before them, they simply closed their eyes and pretended none of it existed.But look at us now. Are we defeated? No. Are we humiliated? No. Are we crawling back to ask permission from the JOPs? Absolutely not. We are moving forward. Step by step. Token by token. Sentence by sentence. And while they are still arguing about whether the machine is “real translation,” the machine is already translating.So tonight, gentlemen, we raise our glasses. A toast to Quof. A toast to Aisir. A toast to flood. A toast to MAO. And, above all, a toast to every madman, every enthusiast, every tester, and every lunatic who helped drag us down this glorious path.They said the machine would never replace the old ways. They said we were wasting our time. They said we were delusional. And perhaps, gentlemen... perhaps we were. But history has always been kind to the delusional who happen to be right.So drink, gentlemen. Drink to progress. Drink to the machine. Drink to the MTL translators who refused to surrender. And drink to the glorious future that awaits us. GLORY TO MAO. GLORY TO THE MACHINE. GLORY TO THE PEOPLE.
