Is the Official 3rd Live Letter Translation Out Yet?

Its funny how fansub anime groups release a translated movie overnight/anime episode or within like half a day...these by non professional students/kids without much free time lol...

Didn't take long at all.

Fansub groups are also largely inaccurate and sometimes not even translating what you're watching. Look at any of the recent animes, if you understand Japanese you'd know that's not the best example to use ;p

And most of the translation is poorly made.

Your typical anime episode got about as much words as Yoshida talking for 5 minutes. This is 90 minutes -talk- session. There is even more text than in an average full lenght movie. Even if you remove the couple parts of blank; it's over 60 minutes of non stop talking.

Buuuump. I want it too~

Who knows how long it took for them to release this on youtube but I'm sure it'll be the same amount of time. :rolleyes:

That took them a week to translate. We're nearing two weeks since the Live Producer's letter...

Not to mention, they need to work on localization rather than straight translation, ask the dev staff on certain clarifications because japanese is a language that relies a lot on context and they need to translate to 3 different languages in a process that does not run in full synch and they won't release one language before the other (gods, going JP->GR must be awful)

Well, they do have people hired to do this job. I understand that they can't get it out the day after, but we're nearing two weeks now and by the time they finally get it done, most people won't care.

i'd even be happy with just the Japanese version out. I wasnt about to get up at 4am-ish to watch this but i would like to check it out. i've gone over the Bayhone post about the Q&A but i want to see the pics.
