i recently acquired raws of aoi kizuna, a gundam 00 manga anthology that i've always wanted to translate for myself. i started with sumeragi's chapter (because i love her...! and because it has the best tieria content), and my scanlation is pretty much done, but... i don't want to do sfx. >_>

Two manga panels with handwritten sound effects in Japanese.

i don't have to, and i haven't in the past, but i wanted to step it up a little bit this time! i want to be putting out high quality stuff! but it's a lot harder than it looks... the problem is that it's so fun to edit the original sfx out, and then it's stupid hard to 1) figure out a corresponding english sfx that doesn't sound stupid 2) edit the new sfx back IN. in attempting this, i've discovered a newfound frustration with english onomatopoeia. (they all sound so dumb, every single one! how do we live like this?) no wonder i'm not a comic artist.

this chapter is so good, though. i've always liked sumeragi, but i think reading through this so thoroughly in order to translate and typeset it really gave me a renewed appreciation for her character.



i made an account when this website first cropped up and then never used it. i've been hoarding this excellent username for too long, and i hear i might like it here, so i'm going to start chosting around and see if it sticks.

hello, cohost! i'm cam, and i like gundam 00. i'm usually on tumblr these days, but i thought i'd like to try something new. you can probably expect me to post about the following:

  • gundam 00 (insane about this show for ~6 years and counting)
  • art/storytelling (of all kinds: written, visual, musical. both my own art and the art of others)
  • music (incurable choir kid, amateur cover artist, enthusiast of sounds and noises (melodic))
  • linguistics (aspiring translator, studying applied linguistics and japanese in school, enthusiast of sounds and noises (phonetic))
  • translation/scanlation (see above)
  • some other stuff (i like talking to myself in public spaces)

thanks for reading. let's be nice to each other. :-)

P.S. if you are a gundam 00 fan, and you have japanese-language gundam 00 content that you want translated into english, please send it my way! i'll do it for free! i'll be very happy about it! and hopefully, so will you!
