Chapter 4: Phantom Storm )
gold_panner: (Axel seven days)

I’m not dead! :DDD

This is chapter one (i.e. short story #1): Roxas in Virtual Twilight Town. Parts of this chapter are reflected in Chapter 6 of this book, and also in Somewhere in Time (if you squint), which is the main reason I decided to go ahead and translate the whole thing. Yes, the TWTN Gang are adorable, but minigames in novel form = teeth grindingly boring to translate. (He jumped off a roof! He ran! He stuck a poster up! Ad infinitum! GAAH) It’s not so boring to read, I hope >___>;

Also, the binary code line breaks are artistic licence on my part, i.e. they don’t appear in the novels. someone actually decipher it xoxox

Chapter 1: Let's go to the Sea )

 

I keep getting emails from people asking me about the other chapters, so:

CHAPTER 1: Let’s go to the sea (DONE)

CHAPTER 2: The nightmare before Christmas (NOT DOING)

CHAPTER 3: Pride land (NOT DOING)

CHAPTER 4: Phantom storm (ON TO-DO LIST): a cute and random short story about Sora, Donald and Goofy in the gummi ship

CHAPTER 5: Last minute to the castle oblivion (DONE)

CHAPTER 6: Axel—Seven days (DONE)

If you want to know what happens in Chapters 2 and 3, go play the Halloween Town and Pride Lands levels in KHII. I’ve read them, and that’s all they are, I swear. Personally, I think it would be a waste of time and effort for me to do them. But, if for whatever reason you REALLY need me to do them, I’ll put them on the to-do list. But if no one requests, I’m not even thinking of doing them ever.

Once I’ve done chapter 4, I’ll figure out how to make a sticky post with links to them and have it all nice. Though,[info]ucco already has them all pretty up on heartstation anyway. <3

I finally managed to get my scanner working! This means I was able to scan the illustrations by Amano Shiro that were in Axel--Seven Days, the novel. I don't have a paid account, so I can't post them on this LJ, but you can find them on Heartstation here, where Olivia has kindly posted them for me!

The coloured cover picture is of the jacket. The cover of the actual book is the same, but it's all in tones of red, and it's pretty stained and dirty from all the adventures the book has gone on with me :D so I didn't scan it. I also cropped out all the parts with the story text in it because it was covered in my ugly handwritten notes and scribbles. You don't need to see that I write like a grade 4 kid DX

I have worked really hard to make this as true to the Japanese version as possible, though it isn't word for word where the phrasing seemed to jarr etc. If you have any questions about my translation choices or anything else at all, please contact me!
...I just want to say that it is an Engrish title, that's how it was written in the novel, and I think it's cute so I'm leaving it as-is. <3

Last Minute to the Castle Oblivion )
gold_panner: (Axel seven days)

I now officially have all the notes completed, and just have to type them up. This has been made MUCH easier thanks to the discovery of WordPad (thankyou[info]little_fabulous... I didn't know there was anything other than notepad >_<).
WordPad discovering aside, I have a lot of stuff going on and I'm not sure when it'll be finished (especially since the Sixth Day is freaking huge), so just hold on, ok? ^_^
And... if there are any weird lines out of place, can you let me know? It was doing that...
 

The Fourth and Fifth Days... )

 **slightly edited for weirdness**

This is the end of the first chapter of the game novel 'Kingdom Hearts 2: Short Stories Vol. 2 Axel--Seven Days'. The chapter is called 'Let's go to the Sea' and is pretty much just about Roxas, Hayner and Pence getting munny to pay for their train ticket. However, the end of this chapter has importance to Axel's chapter, so I'm posting it.

Let's Go to the Sea )
gold_panner: (Axel seven days)
This is the first installment of my translation of  the game novel 'Kingdom Hearts 2: Short Stories Vol. 2 Axel--Seven Days'.
This book has six chapters, which are all short stories from the Kingdom Hearts universe. So far I only plan to put up chapter six (Axel's chapter) and maybe chapter 5 ('Countdown to Castle Oblivion').
