Neon Genesis Evangelion Chronicle Issues 1-10

I was actually meant to post this months ago, but I sorta forgot and also couldn't remember my Mega password after I already uploaded everything. Poor me, but I always back everything up so I uploaded the Chronicle to my mediafire account. Not that anyone cares about any of this, you're just here for the DL content. That said, you'll find links for Chronicle magazines 1-10 below. Have fun!

Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Hou English Translation 1.0

Okay, I have finally finished my translation of Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Hou. Yippee! Now I can move onto something new! Probably the two untranslated Rei arcs or a (or some) Matsuri/Kizuna exclusive arc, I'll decide that soon enough. Anyway, like last time, I have prepared two versions. One with a few untranslated JP words (Onee, Oji-san, nakama etc) here and there, and another version that has those specific words translated into English, which I call the English variation patch for some reason. I'm not very good with names. If you want to see the full list of the untranslated JP words, you can check out the document below.

Untranslated JP words document

That said, I'm very satisfied with the overall outcome. I have put a ton of effort and work into it and I hope it shows. It went through many proofreads and fixing up, some of which was done by a helper or two. Although I still had to implement said fixing up, just saying. Anyhow, I will drop the credits for those people at the bottom. Also, even if you yourself spot any errors, please inform me so I can implement changes and fix it up. I'm not perfect, so I may have missed some things.

Now, what everyone is waiting for, if anyone bothered to even read what I just wrote that is. The download, you will find both versions up for download below. So, go get that and get reading. Hou was recently released after all, and I really want to know what people think of its story. Personally, I found Outbreak to be the most interesting, followed by Hinamizawa Bus stop and then Kamikanshi-hen. It was very entertaining and the music was great, its also significantly better than its anime adaptation, Bus Stop was new (to me) and was thus interesting, the characters were different and so was the story, while Kamikanshi-hen wasn't quite what I expected. Its just not the proper sendoff or "Gift" I expected for Higurashi's deathbed. I know more Higurashi is coming out, but not from Ryukishi07. He washed his hands long ago and has since then moved on, sad yes, but that's reality, or at least I hope not. Anyway, I'll stop myself before I run my mouth, you'll find the downloads below. Have fun!

Note
Spanish translators "23rd District" contacted me shortly after my previous released and asked if they translate my translation into Spanish. Naturally, I said yes, so it seems the Spanish community will also get Hou some time in the future. Yay!

Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Hou English Translation 0.9 Christmas Release

Well, I've decided to make an early release for Christmas, my gift to you. Anyway, just FYI for those who don't know already, this has been totally machine translated by myself, I hope that won't be people off, as I have put alot of effort into it. Using infoseek, reading the sentences phonetically, and using an online dictionary to make things more accurate so it was not sloppily done. Anyway, now that I've got that out of the way, it's mostly complete, albeit only the main credit's listing (You'll see why), a few images with JP text in the background, and the games extra's which are mostly the staff room and back staff room are untranslated at this point, but everything else is so you shouldn't have a problem. And, I should have the rest done and complete sooner or later, maybe before or after the new years, although that depends. But, I know you want to stop reading so here's the download and how to play. Thanks for reading, and I hope you enjoy my translation.

How to play
Dump all files into the games directory and overwrite when promoted.
Then use onscripter to play the translation with the default font, otherwise the game will crash. Simple.

Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Blu-ray DVD comparison part 2

Alright, I decided to do another comparison since Nekogoroshi-hen was also with the first season, and I just had to do the ladder scene and a few others for further comparison. Anyway, I'll drop those below so check them out if your interested.

Now, another reason I wanted to check out Nekogoroshi-hen was due to the fact it was drawn in the style of the second season, and thus it should give us an idea on what that release will look like. That said, I'm deeply saddened, because, it's also an upscale, shattering my hopes for a 1080p release. I kinda knew it would be so but I'll hold off on final judgment until I get my hands on the Blu-ray of the second season. Also, notice how some of the details on Keiichi's and the other kid's faces in the 3rd pic, see how the sweat and whatnot is actually visible unlike very faint in the DVD version, I just wanted to point that. Anyway, thank you for checking out out my comparison and you'll find the download link for the images below.

Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Blu-ray DVD comparison part 1

I actually didn't notice somebody put up a 720p raw of the Blu-ray a few weeks ago, but damn does it look nasty. I already knew it was an upscale but I never expected something like this, the DVD looks better for crying out loud. Anyway, to demonstrate the terribleness I took some screenies for comparison, and yes, I chose the best. See below, Blu-ray left, DVD right...

Okay, it doesn't look that bad. Actually better in some places, although barely since they mostly used a sharpen filter and stretched the video. Anyhow, I really hate when you want to see the differences and then you end up having to do it yourself. I mean, somebody should have already, but then again, I doubt much people even cared about the Blu-ray release. But in the end, at least it ain't no Dragon Ball Z orange bricks I tell you that, because we all love anime insanely cropped. Anyway aside from an incoming DBZ DVNR DVD rant, I'll drop a link down below with all the pic's for download if you want them, both separate and together. So, thank you for checking my comparison out, and I hope you enjoyed it.

Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Hou English Translation Announcement

Yea, I probably should have done this a while ago, seeing that people interested already know and found out  on Higurashi's Animesuki forum and elsewhere (Since I put some vid's on Youtube) that I'm working on an English translation for Hou. Albeit, machine translated like Ayanami Raising Project, but I am taking good care with the translation using both infoseek and an online dictionary, plus Google translate to read it phonetically, although I will admit it has gotten choppy at times for me. Anyway, I'm nearing the end of Hou so I guess you could say it's nearly done, although they'll be alot of fixing to do afterwards. But, in the meantime there is a bunch of vid's I have posted on my Youtube channel so feel free to check those out if your interested.
