Hello there Kuu staff and other fans! I was curious about some things regarding the rozen maiden manga. Does Kuu-scans still translate them? You haven't dropped it because of the shortage on people I hope  If you haven't I would be delighted, but I also wonder how the translations are going?  Do you keep an update on it somewhere by chance? Well. Either way... Keep up the good work! I hope to see more of you!

See now that wasn't so hard to ask, right?
Anyways... Full details is basically the translator was sick with the flu when 18's raw came out. He is now working on the TL, but he is also trying to catch up on his school work as well. We use our free-time to do this thing, if we don't have free-time then we don't do it.

Yeah I was trying to be polite, because I know you guys put some effort in this  But it's great to hear you still work on it! You would not happen to know how far the translations are at the moment?

mech(the translator) is a JLPT level 1(if you don't know what that means, look it up.)
He can translate things pretty fast if it doesn't involve some sort of metaphor or anything similar. However, understanding the Japanese and being able to put them into English isn't the same thing. So... I don't know when Mech will finish. That's why I'm going to say, it will be finish when its finished.
Don't rush him, things get messy in translations when translations are rushed. (well... More messy) Example see: most nearly every single shounen manga translations there are on onemanga.

It's wonderful to hear that you're still working on this, I was worried for awhile. But life does come first, I understand, and that is how it should be. My thanks go out to all of you on the project for all that you've done and all that you will.

Tell him we appreciate the time an work that he puts into it! I was beyond ecstatic when I found that you guys were doing the second volume of Rozen (and that there even was a second volume being published in Japan). Thanks again guys!

Aah, I just hope he is fine and 'll finish it soon, 'cause I liked his translations and always used 'em to check mine.

Ello! It's my monthly reply moment! Was wondering if the translator picked up again? I was just done reading the raws of chapter 20 and realized that it just isn't the same without knowing what it says  Well, not that it really matters... The're still trapped and the plot is going nowhere. But most annoying of all > Suigintou isn't getting the great attention she deserves... They are finally all together. Imprisoned exctually, but Suigintou just won't highlight at all in the manga...  How depressing

I know you have lives and I know it you take the time to make your releases the quality you do, and I really appreciate it, but part of me can't help wondering of there's progress being made. A small but annoying and naggy part. If for some reason the translator can't translate at the moment or there are other circumstances, I wouldn't mind translating a chapter or two as I'd really like to see it scanlated.

Alright. I might try a TL anyway sometime so people can at least read it if they want. I'll still keep an eye out for your version and download it

I'll clear it with the current translator, maybe we can work out that you can try translating it and someone can check it. PM me in 2 days if I haven't gotten back to you...

^^; I do lurk even if I don't say anything....
Anyway, after thinking, I've decided I don't want to cause any friction in your team. I'll do a chapter but I'll just stick it on MH. That way, it's up to you whether you want it or not (Now that I think about it, it's probably a better idea to just wait for your usual one, cos I know I'd probably be upset if my team used someone else's TLs. I should start thinking before I say stuff).
Anyway, good luck with it! I look forward to seeing more Suigintou

You know, I'm surprised that people still don't know that Unwritten Rule #1 of all fansub/scanlation groups is basically not to ask when something is going to be released. I think we've made it pretty clear we're working on it as best we can and that it'll come out when it's done.

who really cares anymore... they have their little text replaced scans from random people. Obviously those random people prefer to do it themselves than to help us.
