Danmachi thread? The translator just finished up the volume 4

Someone DCMAd the translator, so they may have to take down the volume 1 translation.

>Don't worry guys, I'll continue translating despise the licensing.

>>120803426
Just how many LNs is it going to take?
The progress has been kinda slow. And I heard barely anything happens in volume 5 and that he's still level 2 at the end of volume 6.

The author should realize that he is already 6 volumes in and that Aiz is still very, very far away.

>>120803567
Sure but Bell isn't an ordinary Level 2. At his current strength he could easily hang with top tier level 3 raiders if he was in a group. Since he's solo he's at least twice as strong as average level 2's. Lili and Welf both said something along the lines of "he's definitely not a normal level 2."

>>120803567
It took him 1 month to lvl up, a thing that it takes a normal adventurer such as naza 6 years and aizu an entire year which was the previous record holder.

and 10 days to reach this
Bell Cranel

Lv. 2
Strength: G267 Endurance: H144 Dexterity: G288 Agility: F375 Magic: H189

Luck: I

That is pretty op

>>120803567
most adventurers reach level 2 while in a 5-10 man party and it take them years to reach it. the monsters bell's been soloing usually are handled by groups instead of 1v1, it wouldn't be surprising if bell, power wise, is actually a high level 3 or low level 4.

>>120803567
He beat a level 3 while level 2, so he will catch up in strength before he catches up in levels.

>The translator just finished up the volume 4 short story they were translating so we should start getting volume 5 soon.
Wasn't the short story being done by a completely different translator?
The main translator has been dead for months

Don't worry, he does later on. Literally.

Did anyone buy the Yen Press edition of the first volume? How is it, compared to the fan translation?

>>120804960
Pretty good, despise having a typo on the back cover. Ha ha.

They should have the prologue as a preview on their website, try checking it out. Or at least a part of it.

>>120804622
>He beat a level 3 while level 2
Who? how?

>>120803567
I will never understand readers like you.

You have a million other novels with a protagonist at maxed level that can squash people like bugs at the beginning, yet you still want this to the be same stupid shit that the others are doing. There is a reason why this sells while many other Narou fails.

Literally why?

>I heard barely anything happens in volume 5
You heard wrong.

>6 volumes in and that Aiz is still very, very far away.
Also wrong from Bell's perspective AND from Ais' perspective.

>>120802226
It's not like he's even translating nowadays. He has made no progress for ages despite always making up excuses.

I'm so glad I don't have to wait for translators' half-enthusiasm and inability to sort out their lives to push out mediocre translations once in a blue moon.

It makes some odd choices like using "kenki" as effectively a proper name instead of find-and-replace with sword princess.
It does not use Japanese honorifics.
I think the translation is good and will buy the next volume even though I don't like the vol 2 story.

Volume 4 was pretty fucking boring.

>>120808804
What did you hate about it?

>>120809121
People don't like it because it's the first time Bell and his crew had to face real adversity. The entire volume is a fight to survive for Bell and organizing a rescue for everyone else. Personally I found it extremely exciting and Welf is a total and complete bro.

>People don't like it because it's the first time Bell and his crew had to face real adversity. The entire volume is a fight to survive for Bell and organizing a rescue for everyone else. Personally I found it extremely exciting and Welf is a total and complete bro.
now i know you didn't read vol 5.

there was no "fight to survive", or shall i say the fight to survive happened completely off screen. it was 99% talking with 3 pages of action at the end, most of it Aiza curb stomping the floor boss while bell was killing Minotaurs.

>>120810403
Are you trolling?

Ais wasn't even there for the main fight in volume 5. The entire struggle to even get to floor 19 was not "off screen", everyone working together against Goliath was fucking amazing.

Where the hell do you people get these fake information? Is there like a page up somewhere with machine translated spoilers or something?

>>120809965
So the same old idiots who just want curbstomping.

>>120801410
Lol I just picked this up.

>>120811759

Oh good, me too. That title is something spectacular.

How are the LN translations? I just finished what there was of the manga and I'm dying for more. Should I hold out for the anime?

>>120812146
Vol 4, why would you read the manga adaption of a LN?

>>120812350

Nothing in the OP suggested it was an LN apart from that amazing title. So I searched and found the manga and thought that was it.

It was still good though?

>>120812350
Prob read the manga first and didn't realize it's an adaptation.

So is it confirmed on how many episodes the anime will have?

>>120812694
No, but GA has never done 2 cour straight.
Nyaruko's the only one with split cour unless you count Polyphonica.

DanMachi is GA's first grand award though, but I doubt SB Creative will put out that much money for this.

>>120810403
I haven't read it only got summaries. But you seem to be glossing over some important parts.

Pretty much. Casuals who just want epic wins and RPG building porn are dipshits.

Anon, I don't think obnoxious is what you think it means.

>>120813422
Well I'm glad you dropped this then, you can spend your time on better novels.

>>120813422

Not the anon you were arguing with, but for some reason, I find him "pure" rather than dense. I guess it's because that's how his ideal and actions are so childish that his inexperience and ignorance of romantic relationships is actually kind of reasonable for me.

>>120813422
But Bell is too pure for all that romance and kinky shit. A

>>120813578

Yeah, I agree with that from what I've seen. Dense is "You should know better, but you don't". Dude doesn't know any better because no one told him anything, and he has yet to find out for himself.

Like, his magical +5 fuckoff knife goes missing the very first day he teams up with a stranger, and his first thought is "Oh shit, I must have dropped it" instead of "That cheeky cunt stole my knifu"

Done reading the manga , and planning to continue the LN for a bit

This nigga is pure. Also i dont really see much of harem in this, its just Bell doing adventures.

Are you an idiot? 8 girls want him and it's also for some flimsy ass reasons, like any other harem shit. This is like SAO only instead of Kirito we get a Goku like character in terms of ignorance.

Nah, its about a kid and his quest to hold hands with the top dungeon-crawling lady in the land.

>>120814886
thats lewd, picked the fucked up

>>120815520

It gets better. He has a unique skill where his strong desires--in this case, to hold hands--boosts his stat gains from killing monsters. So now he's flying up the rankings and he doesn't even know why.

He's like Rance's "good" twin. Right down to sleeping with the level-up goddess.

>>120815778
Please tell that he isn't a Gary Stu and he gets beat the fuck outside or gets in danger when being a dumb faggot if not careful and that fights aren't asspulls. Or is it?

>He's the plucky heroine

Oh man, totally. He's in the right genre, but he thinks he's the hero instead of the heroine.

Aizu is totally the hero of this show

Does anyone know why the only thing Aizu thinks about is 'I need to get even stronger' ?
It's like the only thing thats in her brain 24/7 , is there a goal she's aiming for?

>>120816396
At least he has something he does right or none at all?

Well the manga is near the Minotaur fight or not
Too damn shame its gonna months to get translated

>>120816507
That's addressed in her manga.

>>120816507
She is kind of a broken doll. Since no Hero save her,so she wants to become one. While Bell wants to walk with her but the power gap is a bit too high

>>120816513

He's very plucky and is leveling up quick. He's also not a bad fighter by any means, just that he keeps getting himself in crazy fights that he really has no business being in.

Not that it's always his fault.

So is the MC here had to train and actually use that things he learn?

>>120816828
He lacks formal instruction, and learned to fight in the school of kill or be killed.

>>120816929
So does teachings or techniques matter or is it all about the stats?

File: character-popup-data-bell.png (91KB, 812x676px) Image search: [Google]

>>120816954
Everyone else learns techniques, and fights in teams. Only Bell fights the way he does.

>>120816725
This is not true.

Ais' background is a huge driving force for Oratoria. I swear to fucking god there's no anon that reads her side story, I really don't get it. Ais' mother is the super enigmatic character, so mysterious that even few know her name even among the deities.

It is hinted that Ais has a very tragic past, and the reason why she needs to be stronger is not really know yet either even by volume 3 of Oratoria.

>>120816954
Ais teaches Bell, and the first thing she says is he relies too much on his stats and have no techniques.

>>120816954
The thing is most other adventurers learn how to fight in groups so they offset each other's strengths and weaknesses, while Bell having no formal training learned to survive by being a jack of all trades. He does magic, can fight in the front and his speed is second to none at his level plus he never underestimates his enemies. He's also a capable shot caller in group fights as Welf was surprised that his battle sense is top class and is always looking for opportunities to strike while the enemy is distracted.

While it make take the average adventurers with B class skills years to get to level 2 he did it in a month with nothing but S class skills and a couple of SS ones.

>>120812453
Yes its good

The translations are questionable in some places but do fine overall.

So what's the quality of the translations?

Is it J->E or Ch->E? Edited machine TL or natural?

>>120824008
Yen Press is clearly J->E by an experienced team.

>>120824008
The fan translations are pretty good, but there is also a professional translation for volume 1.

>>120821499
Bell is just too pure for her.

>>120826292
I don't know about that, she's famous among the gods for being a virgin goddess despite having nothing to do with purity or stuff like that

>>120826348
Hestia is a goddess of the hearth; e.g., famous for never leaving her house if she has a choice. An examplar to all neets!

>>120805164
I think they decided that the gods all speak Japanese in heaven because they leave terminology like gekai, tenkai, kenki all untranslated but still translate kami-sama.

A different kind of protagonist is always nice to break away from the dense ones. Part of why I find Jitsu wa Watshi wa entertaining is because they're all idiots.

>>120824008
Bit off topic, but what's considered machine? I use a dictionary for vocabulary I don't know but usually do grammar and such on my own.

>>120826996
google translate or similar services. Normally people will then edit the machine output to correct names and specific words (generally fantasy terms that won't be in the machine dictionaries).

>>120827147
That sounds terrible.

>>120826996
Well if you have to rely on dictionary too much, your translations probably suck cocks too, but I wouldn't call it machine TL.

Meanwhile in other harem.

Unfortunately I wouldn't know since there aren't many other translators in the first place. I do frequently encounter new vocabulary, though other times I just use it to verify my memory. Well chances are that if you read a lot of manga that have short chapters, then you might've been reading my translations for quite some time now.

Is it gay to think that Bell is cute?

>>120813267
This, this is why anime material can never be a good story.

Manga's too slow.
It's not looking good for Hestia at the moment.

If you put Ais and Hestia on a scale, they probably weight equally for Bell, but for different reasons. Bell's favorite person is probably his grandpa still though.

She saved him twice, twice he ran away directly after.
That's about how often they met.
There's the Monsterphilia scene, the Loki/Freya scene, but they did not meet then.
And some discussion with Eina, that's about all I remember, did not meet again.

I think DanMachi's actually doing pretty well on English Amazon.

http://www.ganganonline.com/comic/danmachi/
We're just about done with Volume 02 in the manga. Ch. 29 should be uploaded soon.

>>120832752
When do they usually update, it's 4 AM right now so obviously not that soon.
But I guess probably before noon?

>>120832819
I've actually seen them updated midnight before, so I'm not quite sure. I mean they have all the files for sure because all the publications are done in magazines already, so probably sometime in the morning would be good guess.

>>120821042
I think they took half and half this time.
The main characters look like Haimura's characters more than Yasuda, but the side characters look like Yasuda's.

Hell, even the 4koma artist joined in at the prep discussion for the anime.
https://twitter.com/systemheaven/status/558251950282534912

I just hope that either the translator step it up and stop being a code zero (guy who makes trillions of excuses to not translate DxD) or that someone else picks it up.
He could simply change the domain of his page to avoid DMCA.

>>120833109
I don't think he's been translating for a while besides the manga and 4koma.

At first he said he has interview, then tests, then just outright say he's lazy, then he says he's reading other books, then he has to finish the other LN first (which he didn't do), and now DMCA.

He's prob gonna call it quits to be honest. I think this project's just a spur of moment thing for him anyway, which I'm kinda surprised he stuck with it for so long.

>>120833202
I think so too, it would be better if someone else picks it up, I would find it hilarious when he becomes butthurt as fuck and deletes everything.
Typical of them.

>>120833245
Are there even active translators out there who aren't total attention whores or machine translators? Bonus points for actually translating from Japanese instead of from Korean or Chinese?

I only really know js06 with Kawakami-verse, but I'm pretty sure you can count the total number with just two hands. I doubt any of them have the spare time to pick up another series until they're done with whatever they're doing.

I also doubt those people would be interested in doing this because "long title" = dropped. Kinda wish the editor went with Familiar Myth instead (the original title that Omori submitted the work as).

>>120833409
Spyro who translates yahari does it directly from japanese to english, probably the best translations, doing justice to the author.

>>120833466
Speaking of which, I'm reading his work on Yahari (at volume 7 right now) but is there some Epub version? I can't read online and be comfy.

Someone wanted to compare the official release to the fan translation earlier.
