Hey, the translation/subtitling project is going well. We've got scripts for all of Gatchaman II, they've all been edited, and the subtitling is underway. We're not so fortunate with Gatchaman Fighter. We could use any Japanese speakers who might be willing to translate GF episodes, even if it's just a few. Hopefully this is a job that can be split across multiple translators. The resulting English doesn't have to be pretty, that's what editing is for. Smile If you're interested or know someone who might be, let me know and I'll put you in touch with Shelia!

Wow, I had forgotten about that project. I am glad to hear it is continuing and that you have completed so much in, to me feels like, such a short time. I am looking forward to seeing the end results.

I am just the humble editor. Smile But Shelia found existing scripts that we could use with some minor editing for the entire GII series, so that really sped things up! We do have a Japanese-speaker giving it all one last look-over to make sure nothing was altered in translation. We only have 4 scripts for GF right now. The others that are out there are translations from the Italian release, and they're missing dialog that was in the Japanese version, so it doesn't really work.

I am about to start watching the majority of Gatch F without English subtitles. All I can say is--wish me luck! LOL. (Oh...is there anything I should know or try to keep in mind?)
