    I work in the translation business and I must say if they only had about 2-3 days to translate this to English they did an amazing job. Normally for Japanese to English it takes a very skilled translator about 1 day to translate 4000 characters, then to get someone to check it vs the Japanese it probably takes 1 day for 8000 characters worth or so. If you then add another proofing to the final translation it takes even more time. They are probably using multiple translations too, which then requires more editing to make the translation feel like it is uniform. Not to mention this is the weekend. Sure they could have have probably waited until tomorrow giving us something to do while the server is down but I guess they just wanted to get it to us ASAP.
