Kusoge Online (BETA) Volume 3 Chapter 1 Part1
NOTE: Incomplete translations are marked as "teaser." Complete translations aren't. If I feel like it, I'll further the translation. If I don't, I won't. Hence, "whimsical." Stuff may be dropped or continued, or both, or alternately, at any second without notice.
Volume 3 Cover
Finally! Volume 3! So this is how the translation will (probably) go:
I expect volume 4 (if there'll be one) to be released in about four months from now on, so my pace will be roughly 10 pages per week. There'll be a 10-20 pages release every 1-2 weeks. For now, no ill.u.s.trations. I'll add those once I got a digital copy. I'll release in parts, since the whole volume consists of only three chapters again, so roughly 80 pages per chapter. Every part will get its own post.
That's it regarding Kusoge in specific. There'll also be changes in how I categorize translations in general:
Completed releases will be categorized under "Completed" (d'oh) Teasers/parts will be categorized under "Teasers" (d'oh) Once I get a meta release done, all minor releases will be stripped off of their categorization. Example: Kusoge volume 2 gets released as a whole -> all full chapter releases will be stripped off of all of their categories.
This will help keeping the categories "clean." However, it'll still be very messy once you use the search engine to look up "Kusoge." I'd rather delete the whole post and only have it as a redirect to the "meta" page, but I've no idea how. I can't simply delete the post since that'd be problematic with linking/indexing. Lemme know if you've got a solution for that.
There'll also be an e-mail subscription feature of some kind in the feature, I'll look into that on the weekend.
This week's release will be a bit larger (20 pages) since I was too lazy to release last week for some reason (I did translate, however!). And yes, I do know that for some reason there's an empty page every second page, and I've no idea why. It seems to happen once I convert the doc into PDF. That worked fine until now and the page count on the bottom's correct too. I guess it's a bug with Google Docs. Well, it won't kill you and I don't wanna postpone the release any further. ;D
Now have fun reading and leave a comment if you like!
Important: If you're coming from Baka-Tsuki, there might be more parts for you to read! I haven't figured out a good method to update BT in that regard, so I might not update before the whole chapter's done. Please just use the search function on my site to get to those.
