---Lunitari---

Added 2 more pages. I need to find a book or a site though that explains manga sound effects though. I tried translating a few but they didn't seem to make sense.

---Cavalier---

Lunitari when your done let me know if you want this localized and I'd be happy to do so for you.

---Melora---

OH NOOOO! the good site I knew of is GONE T_T
I found it on the way back machine though: http://web.archive.org/web/201003260735 ... undfx.html

But that still doesn't have the untranslated Japanese version, if you need help with that. I know there are books for that, so there MUST be something online.

This one also has the SFX once they're translated, explaining kind of what they should mean:http://www.xamuel.com/examples-of-japan ... matopoeia/

These are just for ideas:
http://www.soundsafaritheater.com/onomatopoeia.html
http://www.writtensound.com/index.php?term=movement

Ignore this, I just copied that site's code, so we wont lose it. *after break

---Melora---

Is all that is left on this the SFX?
I need to find someone to do the SFX on another project, if that's all that is left here I can ask for both 

---Twilight Heroine---

Anything I am saying about it is in This colour

I figured out a few things that had me stumped before, so I am posting this first before going over the final half I have translated one more time. I might have it ready tomorrow morning if I get to sleep soon

---Cavalier---

Hey guys. Finally got the time to localize this. It was a bit difficult getting into the flow of this one as its essentially a conversation, and it got a little abstract and fragmentary, but I think I got it right. Let me know if there's anything you want changed, or if I didn't properly understand something. Also even if everythings fine, please let me know. Sometimes I finish these localizations and I'm not sure anyone in the translation project realizes its finished. So just give me a heads up either way. Thanks again for all your patience. I hope you guys like it
