Fedule posted:And if it's true - and it looks pretty legit at this point - then SHSL Translation is over. It might just be the first game being localized, though - I'm hearing a few rumors to that effect. Presumably they'll release the second game as well if the first sells well enough. If it's just the first game being released, then would that mean the translation of the second will continue? If both are being released, I'm guessing the LP is going on hiatus until the English release, and will continue using the official localization.

The source on that "only DR1 is localizing" rumor is apparently a single tweet from a guy apparently at Anime Expo. NISA hasn't released their press release for Danganronpa yet, only the other Vita game that they announced they're localizing. I'm furiously F5ing several different news sites for that press release. EDIT: It is just DR1.

From what I've gathered from twitter and such, it's true. However, NISA is only porting the first game (despite using the Vita version), and they are doing their own translation- they aren't going to be using Project Zetsubou's, or the LP. So it will likely be a year or more before we see it here. And again, while I'm not 100% positive, all signs point to only the first game being licensed at this point. Bear in mind that both games were released separately in Japan. And are being RE-released on the Vita. It doesn't really behoove them to bundle both games together for the initial western release (if NISA wanted to be real cads, they would remove all the extra content as well to sell as DLC or to bundle in the future). Geg posted:Funimation did apparently license the anime so maybe they'd just use their voices if Funimation wants to dub it. I'd pay good money to hear Steve Blum voice Hagakure.

I think XSEED did that once but I can't recall the specifics. Anyway NISA is a pretty big company and they probably have their own ideas. I'm kind of amused that Hope's Peak made it through the localization pass, but not Monobear.

JAST also regularly steals fanpatches, but there's a world of difference in size between JAST and NIS so yeah there's no way in hell NIS would do that.

I'd say Bret Iwan (Mickey Mouse) would be more fitting though of course there's no way that could happen. Edit: Anyway, I guess the elephant in the room here is whether this LP is going to continue or if we'll find it quietly locked sometime soon. I'm no law student but I don't believe NISA has any legal grounds to force it closed (else every other company with an IP and a grudge would have been shutting down Let's Plays left and right), but that's not to say Oren and Fedule won't do so anyway out of respect for NISA's wishes. Of course, only the first game has been licensed. Re-edit: Oh Gawd I just saw one of those DR1 spoiler ads for the first time. Really guys? I know the translation patch was released recently but come on, that's pretty goddamn low. Knicknevin fucked around with this message at 02:12 on Jul 7, 2013 |

Guess there's no need to worry about the official release affecting this LP.  Especially since they're only releasing the first game right now. I'm going to guess that the LP will have finished by the time they get around to localizing the second game, so there's probably no cause for concern.

I'd be pretty surprised if they sent a C&D, honestly. Orenronen is basically the primary reason this game got any amount of exposure in the western hemisphere up until the anime, and I'd imagine NIS probably is aware of the LP and the exposure it gave. Or they're not, in which case there'd be no problem!

They're gonna translate all the titles as "Super Duper" and it'll be so dumb. Super High School Level was a mouthful but it got the point across much more cleanly and sounded like something vaguely reasonable instead of childishly dumb. So dumb. I was actually looking forward to the translation patch, particularly since I don't own a Vita and probably never will. Ah well. I've got other games to play, anyway.

The door Mahiru was laying against... If I was trying to open, it, I think I would have tried forcing it open. Of a dor isn't locked, I tend to try that in case something sort of large, but not huge is blocking it... That would freak me out to slam a door open and find a dead body knocked over in front of me...

From what I gather (which is an offhand mention in a press release whose lines I am reading in between) they're going with "Ultimate" for the students' titles, and Monokuma instead of Monobear. The last you'll be hearing about the SHSL Translation is when I put together a few choice scenes just so you can see what we were going for, and how the edited translation compares with Oren's original translations (and with Project Zetsubou's (and eventually with the official localization's)). This'll probably be a few short LP-style posts. Later.
