About the Translations
(Written by Jazzy:) The following comics are being translated by Naisu Fansubs, a small freelance group interested primarily in scanlations of doujin comics based on games, anime, etc. Naisu, as it were, actually only consists of two members; Jazzy (translator/editor/etc) and Kyra (webmaster, localizing efforts).
It should be noted that Jazzy is by no means fluent in the Japanese language. He spent 2 years studying the language in college and went on to pursue further knowledge of the language in his spare time and continues his learning each and every day. Nonetheless, Jazzy strives for accurate translations. When stuck, confused, or otherwise clueless, Jazzy has a number of fluent sources he confers with to ensure each comic is translated as accurately as possible, while still making sense and sounding grammatically sound to the every day English speaker.
A few final notes:
- I will not provide entire comics in raw japanese format (if you wish to see an individual page or two I might be willing to help you out there).
- If you're still interested in reading the comics in their untranslated form, you can purchase this book at: Amazon.jp - Search for 世界樹の迷宮.
- If you think I may have mistranslated something, please feel free to contact me at jazzysama at gmail dot com, I'd ask that you be fluent or have a reliable source when correcting me, due credit will be given.
- If you don't like the way I word things in English, purchase the book and release your own scanlations, simple enough.
- Going along with number 4, I'd appreciate it greatly if my images were not reposted, edited, stolen, etcetc. I put a lot of time and effort into this project and Kyra has put a lot of work into creating the site and gallery and we would not like to see this work go to waste.
Ok, enough about that, now about the Book and the comics themselves:
Title: 世界樹の迷宮コミックアンソロジー
(Sekaiju no Meikyuu komikku ansorajii) (Etrian Odyssey Comic Anthology)
Publisher: DNA Media
Approximate Price: ¥890 ($9 USD - beware, shipping to US is ridiculous)
Release Date: 2007/5/25
# ISBN-10: 4758003890
# ISBN-13: 978-4758003896
Length: 15 comics, 150 pages
Description: A collection of short (8-12 page) comics related to Sekakyuu(EO). Some of the pages stand alone as far as content and humor are concerned, others are like a short story drawn into comic-form.
Each set follows a different group of adventurers into the forest. As far as warnings go, most of the comics are PG, a handful of them may be PG-13, but this is in no way shape or form a hentai/ero doujin, and should therefore be suitable to all audiences.
Currently Translated:
