This looks good. I'll translate it.

Ah, right, I'll do the editing!

I may not redraw all the SFX since it's in full colour. If someone has experience redrawing colour pages and would like to help out, feel free. Otherwise I'll make due.

>>24270
Here's the upscaled version. I hope it's good enough to use it for editing.

>>24276
These were a lot easier to work with, thanks! Do you need me to provide the raws in order for you to upscale them? Just in case, here's ch 2: https://mega.nz/folder/4PRxAKpR#hSzJqxKZ4Li5plnD1PsbKg

>>24281
Thanks. I appreciate it. Here's the upscaled version.

Here's the translation for chapter 1.

I'll get started on 2 next.

Here's Ch 1 for QC.
https://mega.nz/folder/oSwVhLIL#nkrvYDYoLbZg7x5fWM8vWg

I'm not completely satisfied with the font choices. I'll have to look into it a bit more. Any input on the fonts would be very helpful.

Here's the translation for chapter two.

Two changes I want to make:

Page 7

change to
even if I do awfully, I don't want to give up.

Page 8

change to
I think that just proves how serious you are.

>>24314
Updated!

>>24315

Okay, I think this good to go. Just add a credits page and I'll release it, unless anyone else has any comments.

Released.

Here's the upscaled version of chapter 3.
http://www.mediafire.com/file/2dqdbqo8kiygvnv

Here's chapter 2 for QC!
https://mega.nz/folder/ETRzTaJT#C94jTwjNeF_8KhekkiB4IA

This was a good chapter. I'm very curious what it is about Haruka's past that keeps hanging over her head. Surely it can't be anything that bad, right?

The redrawing was incredibly time consuming. Some pages took hours. I will just say that I'm glad it's monthly.

>>24353
Fix the resolution of the pages. All of them should be 1360x1920.

>>24355
The upscaled pages provided are 1280x1808.

The resolution of the raws on Storia Dash are lower for Ch 2 than they were for Ch 1.

>>24356
Oh, you are right. I didn't even notice that. So fix only page 7,8,9,10. They are low res with ugly compression artifacts.

>>24357
Ah, good catch, thanks. Updated

Any chances the cleaner could upload the clean version? I want to do a Spanish translation, and it would be infinitely helpful. I just don't see a need to clean it again if it has already been done so. I'd credit them of course. Thank you.

>>24358
Save those pages as jpg. Besides that everything looks good to me.

Updated!

>>24359
Sure! Here are the PSD files for Ch 1:

And for Ch 2:
https://mega.nz/folder/IepAGYLA#CquZHcmXQzXUpwq9LOw-iQ

>>24363
Woah, thank you! Though, I was so excited to start I actually went ahead and already did the cleaning of all the raws haha. I also have cleaned all the pages for Chapter 3 (they are 18, right? the ones in >>24350). I'm translating Chapter 1 right now so they don't even have any text. If you want them, I can upload them, just hit me up.

>>24365
Sure, that'd be helpful, thanks!

Released.

>>24368
Uploading them now! It'll take a while 'cause my internet is really slow and shitty, but I'll have them up in a bit. Also, did you do anything to the 'upscaled&denoised' raws? Because the colours in those look a bit different from the raws, but your version does look like the raws. Thank you. (Yours are a bit... darker maybe? In parts like the clothes and stuff).

>>24368
Here you go: https://mega.nz/folder/q4UUjC4J#c4Cm4AiYs33sdTkjAlu1sA
Don't worry about the colour thing I said, PS had messed up my RGB profiles.

Here's chapter 3 translation. And chapter 4 is coming out in two days.

Here's chapter 3 for QC!
https://mega.nz/folder/sLoEyKKR#afFC7hwydH_FQLRzaEgqEw

>>24374
Much appreciated, thanks!

Here's the upscaled version of chapter 4.
http://www.mediafire.com/file/74n7i6crjbaip7n

>>24487
Glad it was of use... even though, I just noticed, some parts I had to re-do and some weren't even cleaned! (Did it in such a rush.)
Anyways, QC:
p4 "to greet me... every day it makes me happy", I think "to greet me every day... it makes me happy" (unless you want to mean that it makes her happy every day?)

p9 missing a dot in top left, lower bubble (have you told her about that...?)

p12 is the em-dash in the first bubble intentional?

p13 maybe gulp instead of swallow? just a suggestion

p15 dot or comma after 'Geez' maybe?

I think that's all! Most are just nitpicky things tho. (Will you be cleaning Chapter 4? If so, I'd appreciate the PSD too just in case. We can split the cleaning half, but I'm not sure I'll be able to do it quickly).

>>24490

>p4 "to greet me... every day it makes me happy", I think "to greet me every day... it makes me happy" (unless you want to mean that it makes her happy every day?)

So the original line is 朝起きて隣に遥香さんがいて　おはようって言えるの...毎日嬉しいです

There are two clauses "Waking up with Haruka-san by my side and being able to say 'good morning'", and then "every day I'm happy" . She's saying that each day she wakes up next to Haruka, it makes her happy. That might imply that she's waking up next to Haruka every day, but it might not. I'm not sure. We don't know if she sleeps over every night, or most nights, or some nights, and I don't think this line tells us. Maybe change "every" to "each" if that makes more sense.

>>24490

>p12 is the em-dash in the first bubble intentional?

Yeah, that's intentional. I'm never quite sure what punctuation to use when one person is just calling out to another. Using a period feels odd to me, but I think putting a comma implies that the same person is going to continue speaking, so I just default to an emdash. Do you think a period or a comma or something else would be better?

>p15 dot or comma after 'Geez' maybe?

For things like this I generally don't like ending lines with periods, because it tends to be hard to read on these notes written directly onto the art. Though I guess that's much less of an issue in color comics than in black-and-white. Maybe an ellipsis would work here if you think it needs punctuation?

Thanks for the suggestions!

>>24493

'every day'. Ah, I get it now. I'm honestly not sure which option is best tbh.

>>24494

p12 'em dash'. I went with exclamation signs in my Spanish version, since they are (kinda) far and it's one usually "shouts" when he/she calls out to another person. Maybe ellipsis could work too. But the em dash made me thought she was cut off.

p15. 'geez' I'd actually went with ellipsis myself in my Spanish version, so I think it's what works best. Plus, with a comma, one'd need the bubble to not start with a capital letter.

Updated! Thanks for the QC.

>>24490
Yeah, I do intend to clean and redraw ch 4, though I will be working on Hana ni Arashi for a bit before continuing with this.

>>24496
No worries, take your time. I think the chapter is good for release then! (Don't wanna be annoying, but I can't find the 'Pleasant Cries', 'Scriptfont' anywhere, would you mind sharing them?)

>>24501
Sure, no worries.
https://mega.nz/folder/tapRUChR#_hOwskXlsqwxcaW47L5ZxA

Alright, added credits page, hopefully we are good for release!

Released.

>>24490
Here are the cleaned & redrawn PSDs for Chapter 4.
https://mega.nz/folder/ZCZHBCyR#rfKZVKs6VYjFhL3KsH8drw

I just finished them a few minutes ago, so I haven't looked through them again just yet. Let me know if anything looks off.

>>24545

Here's the translation for chapter 4, sorry for the long delay.

>>24578
So far, the only mistake I found is 'troup', which should be 'troupe'. Also, what is "I was able to see how incredibly precious that is." in p17 referring to? Like, what is that incredibly precious thing?

>>24584

The "that" is referring back to "I never stopped loving it." I guess to make it more explicit, change the line to "I was able to see how incredibly precious that love is."

Thank you.

>>24585
Found another:
p12: "And she gets especially excited when she has strawberrys and cream, her favorite."

Also, just in case, is this supposed to be viewed like this? Or is it my browser/computer that's messing the Japanese text up?

>>24586

Oh nice catch. Strawberrys->strawberries, right?

Yes, that's a problem with your browser, it probably doesn't have unicode support for its default text reader. Same thing happens to me. If you download the text file (for Chrome, right click on the link and click "Save Link As") then you can open it with a word processor or other software (I use Notepad++), and it will properly display the Japanese text. I include the original text in my translations to help me or other people review the translations, and just as general language practice.

>>24587
The http response header needs to include the character encoding. Looks like Yuri Project uses lighttpd for its server. I believe in the configuration file there's a mimetype.assign part where the value following "txt" would need to be changed to "text/plain;charset=utf-8".

>>24588

Oh, so it's not the browser? Well, anyways, if you download the text file, it works fine.

>>24587 Yep, strawberries. I think there was another mistake somewhere over there, but I forgot hah. I did try to 'save as link' but for some reason I thought that wouldn't work lmao. Thanks, now I can see it correctly with Notepad++, it was driving me crazy hah. Spanish version is already done btw, waiting for a simul-release.

>>24589
You can probably change the default setting for your browser as well, though the server is supposed to specify the mime type.

Here's the upscaled version of chapter 5.
http://www.mediafire.com/file/06ne0jkvcuv98ib

>>24578
Here we are! Sorry for the wait.
https://mega.nz/folder/gHwSEaQb#ahcQvrENkUtjMU1TF_9lgQ

I don't think I've ever seen another manga use as many fonts as this one.

>>24630
Looks good. Great job.

>>24630

One thing. On page 17, could you change that top left bubble to "I was able to see how incredibly precious that love is." Other than that, looks good to go. Nice work.

Oh, and please make sure to put that note about Jun's name in the credits. Chapter 5 still hasn't cleared that up, so it's entirely possible that a few chapters from now the author will finally deign to give us a reading and it'll turn out to be Aya or Atsu or something.

>>24638
>>24639
Ah, right, updated! Thanks for QC!

>>24641

Okay, good. I'll probably release it tomorrow unless anyone else has any suggestions.

Also, here's chapter 5.

Released.

>>24645
in pg 16 its says haraka instead of haruka

'Oh, I got your message' Just in case it wasn't intentional, a dot would be needed at the end. Apart from that, haven't found anything wrong. I released Spanish version too. Thanks Martin as always!

Here's chapter 5! jpg files + psds.
https://mega.nz/folder/5D5VTZhS#sOfs49tHzNLP7GaD-8z3Eg

Chapter concerns:

I struggled to come up with a good layout for "drenched" on p9. The other options I tried were dre / nched, which felt awkward to read, and dre / n / ched, which sounds like a cool as fuck duo but isn't exactly getting the right message across. So I ultimately went with the way it is now, spreading the letters out. Hopefully it looks okay.

(To Dark)
I had to hide some really shitty redraws on the "Gloom" panel, just fair warning.

-

This was a fun chapter. I certainly wasn't expecting the author to undo their first night together just so that she could have them actually have sex the exact same chapter (unless she double baits us, in which case, bravo). The scene itself is quite romantic and well executed. There's something I find really endearing about Nao crying happy tears during sex. I wonder what that says about me.

>>24646
>>24649
Really sorry about not getting the corrections done yet, I had forgotten all about it. I'm too tired tonight, but I'll for sure get these done tomorrow.

>>24660
Thanks for the chapter as always!! I'll make do with the 'gloomy' thing ha ha!

I'm on p4 and found this: "I should've been happy takings things at the pace that suited us." That 'takings' should be 'taking'. Will report back if I find something else.

>>24668
The phone also reads 'Good Mo', where maybe it should be 'Good mo'.

Ch4 and 5 updated! Sorry for the wait.

I left out the full stop for "Oh, I got your message", since it's not really necessary when it comes to floating text. All other changes were made.

>>24671

Here are a few script changes. Sorry, I was looking over and realized that I switched tenses in the middle of that section of narration on pages 3 and 4, so had to fix that.

And then just a small wording change on 15. From "working" to "practicing" so that "the real thing" in the next sentence is understood to refer to the performance.

Other than that, it looks good.

>>24678
Updated!

>>24682

Released chapter 5, and updated the link on chapter 4.

The author also has a ton of related manga pages on her twitter, going back several years. Here's I think the first 12 of them chronologically, and a translation.

https://mega.nz/folder/bBgjhI5Y#cW4koTdVZIbc-38jObVEBg

>>24689
You are a genius. I was actually going to let you know about these. They go back, to, I think, 2017. There are several mini-comics and lots of random pictures. I grabbed at least 45. Did you start by 2017, then? Thanks a lot.

>>24690

I can't take credit for that. I think Martin first pointed them out to me, at which point I said I wanted nothing to do with them since it seemed like a real pain to go collect all of them. And another contributor went back and dug through her twitter and sent these to me.

>>24690

Do they really go back to 2017? I see she has other manga going about other characters, but I thought this was the first one of these, since it's titled 創作百合1.

As far as I can tell, everything before that (and it continues after) is doujins. She seems to really, really like Bang Dream.

>>24693
She does really love Bang Dream and Ran lmao. Well, can't blame her. It's got good ships. So, the first post is from Jul 17, 2017, and then in Nov 28, 2018 (https://twitter.com/syu_612/status/1067782335016271872) she quotes that post and I think she says something like 'I want to work with them again'. I do have some pictures and mini-comics from 2019 and 2020, actually, I'll upload all I have in a MEGA folder and get it here. They are named with yy-mm-dd so that they do not get mixed up. If you've got any idea how to go to a user's feed from a certain tweet (the 2017 one in this case), I'd check from that post onwards.

>>24694

Earlier I scrolled back through every image she's posted on twitter through to the beginning. There are hundreds of comics of those Bandori characters, and before that it's Haifuri. I didn't notice any others from this series, but then again, I missed that one, so I might've missed others. It's kinda hard to individually examine them all when there are so damn many. She's a very prolific twitter artist.

>>24695
She really does draw a lot, her art is also full colour and incredible. Here's the mega folder: https://mega.nz/folder/ehhHCZTC#55QWcWfQVdKB6vTGF6ZUgw

>>24696

Thanks for gathering them all like that! I'll probably translate these in chunks in between the monthly releases. There's also other stuff I should probably work on, like the rest of this one https://safe.yuri-project.net/res/24069.html

>>24698
Oh, I love that anthology. I'm actually almost halfway through the cleaning of girls complex a la mode from that one (lots of onomatopoeias and little time) so don't worry, you can take your time haha.

It's nice to know that Nao hopes to see Haruka get back into acting with her. That should be a fun eventual story.

>>24773
Looks good to me.

>>24773

Looks good. This just needs a credits page.

>>24785
Updated!

>>24786

Released.

>>24773
As always, Martin, thank you so much! Been very busy recently. Minor detail, but I think in p10, 'you can't be so blind' should start with a capital letter (or in p9 it should be 'Haruka,' and not 'Haruka.'). (Also, in p11, it says 'you got along real well', I'm not entirely sure, but shouldn't that be 'really'?).

>>24793

You're right, that "you" should be capitalized there. "Real well" is a common colloquialism.

>>24793

Updated! Sorry about that.

Has the series not gone past ch8 because a lack of a typesetter or lost interest?
I can typeset if need be for continued releases.

>>25229

Yeah, I think the editor isn't going to work on this any more, so feel free to work on it yourself if you like.

Also, I don't think I'll translate any more chapters in this series after the ones I've already posted. So if you want to go past the existing scripts you'll probably need to find another translator.

Thanks for letting me know, by chance, do you know what fonts were used for what situation?
I wanna keep it consistent with previous releases

>>25231
Nvm I looked through the psds that were posted in the thread, maybe I got them all but I'm unsure.

Seems like my redrawing skills are awful for colored pages, so I'm unable to actually edit it.
Thanks for all the hardwork that you guys put into the series till now, hopefully SSE won't be super slow like always.

>>25233

Yeah, I hear that the redrawing especially on color pages is really hard, so this was always going to be a difficult series for whoever edits. Thanks for giving it a shot.

Just want to say I absolutely adore this series but lack any skills to help. Please someone pick this up again. I love it too much.
