Kirokan Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 (edited) Update: As of August 25th, 2017, I consider this project complete! The remaining pages are all text that can be found in game, and all things of interest have been translated. There may be some artwork uploads, but translations are complete! A big thank you to everyone who donated. Thanks to you all, I was able to buy a spare book, de-spine it, and hence get much higher quality scans without the dark spine line in the way. It was a huge help, and I hope it was worth your donations! It took about 9 months, with a bit of a hiatus in the middle due to life changes and the like, so thank you for your patience! See you next project! Download this project in bulk (.rar format) from here. (Password: kantopia) Or see it all in one imgur gallery here. --- Original Post: Hello everyone! It's me again here with yet another translation project. Much like I did for the previous book, I aim to translate the character profiles, concept art, and extras (and other things of interest) for this book too! All images will be posted on an ongoing post on my blog I may have VincentASM and MicrowaveIt (as well as a few others such as AstroKnighticalFeats) help out if interested! Unlike last time, however! Thanks to your donations, I was able to buy an extra copy of the book and get it unbound. Therefore, quality scans will be very high in quality and in PNG format. It does mean massive file sizes but I may get around that by making JPEG uploads and a final PNG RAR file. I also want forum user input. I figure the best way to have direction in this project is to see what people want translated the most! Please check the table of contents below and see what interests you, and feel free to leave a request (for priority) in this thread! General discussion is fine too! DONATIONS: Please keep in mind this is all done on our free time though, and that we are making no money for it...so if there are some delays or if some posts take time, we are probably busy with some thing or another! If you still wish to donate, then just find out how to here. Feel free to continue giving priority requests! I have a list from the users in this thread and elsewhere that I will be following. --- Front Cover Back Cover Chapter II: Characters [COMPLETE] All Character Ages New Character Trivia (Hobbies, etc) Elena and Ashera unused portraits 040-041 Character Relationship Chart (translated by VincentASM) All Character Profiles/Body Portraits/Extras 042 Micaiah 043 Sothe 044 Edward 045 Leonardo 046 Nolan (partially translated by AstroknighticalFeats) 047 Laura 048 Aran 049 Tauroneo 050 Zihark 051 Fiona 052 Jill 053 Haar 054 Black Knight 056 Pelleas 057 Almedha 058 Elincia 059 Lucia 060 Geoffrey 061 Bastian 062 Renning 063 Ilyana 064 Kieran 065 Marcia 066 Makalov 067 Astrid 068 Brom 069 Meg 070 Nephenee 071 Heather 072 Calill 073 Danved 074 Sanaki 075 Sephiran 076 Zelgius 077 Sigrun 078 Tanith 079 Stefan 080 Tormod 081 Muarim 082 Vika (partially translated by AstroknighticalFeats) 083 Jarod 084 Lekain 085 Hetzel and Oliver 086-087 Ike 088 Mist 089 Titania 090 Soren 091 Rhys 092 Gatrie (partially translated by AstroknighticalFeats) 093 Shinon 094 Oscar 095 Boyd 096 Rolf 097 Mia 098 Volke 099 Caineghis (partially translated by AstroknighticalFeats) 100 Skrimir (partially translated by AstroknighticalFeats) 101 Giffca (partially translated by AstroknighticalFeats) 102 Ranulf 103 Kyza 104 Lyre 105 Lethe 106 Mordecai (partially translated by AstroknighticalFeats) 107 Tibarn 108 Ulki 109 Janaff 110 Naesala 111 Nealuchi 112 Reyson 113 Leanne 114 Rafiel 115 Nailah 116 Volug 117 Dheginsea 118 Kurthnaga 119 Gareth (partially translated by AstroknighticalFeats) 120 Ena 121 Nasir 122 Ashera 123 Yune Character Full Body Portraits + Mini Profiles 124 125 126 127 128 129 130 131 132 133 134 135 136 137 Chapter III: Concept Art [COMPLETE] Spoiler 140-141 Micaiah and Sothe 142-143 Sothe and Edward 144-145 Edward and Leonardo 146-147 Nolan and Laura 148-149 Aran and Tauroneo 150-151 Zihark and Fiona 152-153 Jill and Haar 154-155 Haar, the Black Knight, Izuka, Pelleas 156-157 Pelleas, Elincia, Geoffrey 158-159 Geoffrey and Lucia 160-161 Bastian and Ilyana 162-163 Kieran and Makalov 164-165 Marcia and Astrid 166-167 Meg and Brom 168-169 Nephenee and Heather 170-171 Calill and Danved 172-173 Sanaki, Sephiran, Zelgius, and Sigrun 174-175 Sigrun and Tanith 176-177 Stefan, Tormod, and Muarim 178-179 Muarim, Vika, Oliver, and Lekain 180-181 Hetzel, Valtome, and Ike 182-183 Mist and Titania 184-185 Soren and Rhys 186-187 Gatrie and Shinon 188-189 Oscar and Boyd 190-191 Rolf and Mia 192-193 Volke, Caineghis, Skrimir 194-195 Giffca, Ranulf, and Kyza 196-197 Lyre, Lethe, and Mordecai 198-199 Tibarn, Janaff, Ulki, Naesala, and Nealuchi 200-201 Heron Siblings and King Lorazieh 202-203 Nailah and Volug 204-205 Dheginsea and Kurthnaga 206-207 Gareth and Ena 208-209 Nasir, Ashera, and Yune 210-211 CGI Character Head Designs 212-213 Horses and Dragons 214-215 Pegasus and Basic Unit Designs (1) 216-217 Basic Unit Designs (2) 218-219 Basic Unit Designs (3) 220-221 Basic Unit Designs (4) Chapter V: Extras [ONGOING] 246-247 Game Cover Art Illustrations 248-249 Book Cover Illustrations + Senri Kita Commentary 250-251 Original Face Designs 252-253 Developer Commentary [Blog post version here] Edited August 25, 2017 by Kirokan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anacybele Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 All I wish to know is if the paired endings are confirmed to be completely canon... If they are, well, that's going to disappoint me, as it really throws a wrench into some of my theories/headcanons. ._. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hardin Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 If it's not too much trouble, I would like to request Oliver. I've always loved how he completely goes against the image of a playable unit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I too look forward to seeing how epilogues play into character profiles and such, too, if at all. (Or if they will be delegated to a separate archive). If it's not too much trouble, I would like to request Oliver. I've always loved how he completely goes against the image of a playable unit. This is my personal request to myself too, especially since he lacked a profile in the FE9 book. xD Noted! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Or if they will be delegated to a separate archive). Same here. I think the most likely scenario is that all possible endings will be listed/mentioned, not just the paired ones and those of characters who have no pairings, but you never know, you know. It's mostly that if they're NOT confirmed canon, then that helps the Outrealm thing that Awakening established. If they are, it kinda hurts it. And with the Outrealm Gate around, it opens the possibility of more scenarios not even available in the games, meaning pretty much all headcanons and theories could've occurred in some dimension/universe or another and that definitely works for me.

Yeah, so I wonder. In the FE6+7 book it left out possible pairings even though it included epilogues for other characters, so wonder if it will do something like that. This is likely a thing that would be one of the first things to translate, but I would like to see the comments about Micaiah's Design and Concept Art. Of course, but it is nice to say such as well to give it more priority : ) You do a lot of work to support Micaiah too, so I hope it comes in handy for that!

In the FE6+7 book it left out possible pairings even though it included epilogues for other characters, so wonder if it will do something like that. Yeah, I'd be cool with that. Because I like to believe that not only is there an FE reality where my personal headcanons and other people's headcanons could've taken place, but I also like to think there's a reality where Ike actually never left Tellius. I wouldn't mind if IS visited what-if scenarios like this too, since they kinda already did this with Fates. I mean, what if they pulled a Zelda timeline and did splits in different sagas? Like, this game happens if Ike leaves Tellius, and this game happens if he doesn't, like certain Zelda games occur if Link defeats Ganon at the end of OoT and certain others occur if he actually LOST. I doubt they'll continue the Tellius saga itself, but IS COULD make a game that takes place much much later in the timeline akin to Awakening, in a different land and stuff, but assumes Ike actually stayed rather than left, much like Zelda: ALttP actually takes place in a timeline where Link lost to Ganon in OoT. I thought it was really fascinating for Zelda, and I think it'd be fascinating for FE too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they are, well, that's going to disappoint me, as it really throws a wrench into some of my theories/headcanons. ._. One of the greatest thing about Fire Emblem is that, while certain events are giving more emphasis (e.g. Eliwood marrying Ninian, Roy marrying Lilina ect) no one chain of events is ever confirmed as 'canon'. Ike and Soren's support chain (and thus, their ending) is given emphasis in the plots of both games, but his solo ending is just as valid. In that vein, I doubt IS will confirm anything. They will probably just list the possible endings. I would certainly be very mad if they confirmed Astrid and Makalov *shudder*. Also, I have left a donation. Wish I could donate more but I am also strapped for cash. Looking forward to seeing you translate the book!

Looking forward to seeing you translate the book! Yes, I believe their current approach leaving it open like that can satisfy most parties. Ah...Astrid and Makalov, I do wonder if they will go with that indeed. I received your donation, and please, don't worry about that! Every little bit helps in a big way. : ) Thank you so much!

Makes sense, as we lack much info on them... I too wish for Sanaki. I was pleasantly surprised to see conceptual older her in the POR book. I'm not sure how much detail goes into the returning characters' profiles, especially the ones that didn't change much between the time gap between the two games. I'm kinda wondering if they'll repeat the Laguz art and profiles since they don't show any signs of aging between the games lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For some it makes sense (Ike will get more info as to what he does throughout), but what about someone like Mia? She has one info convo and that's it. xD So I have a feeling it will be like "She had this convo, and oh here's her epilogue!" On one hand, translating that will be really easy. On the other hand... well, yeah. xD Thanks for follow the Micaiah4Smash Twitter, Kirokan. I feel a little bit more motivated I like to motivate people, thanks for the re-follow : ) We do share content that the other would be interested in after all! xD That Lilina emote is adorable too xD Edited November 7, 2016 by Kirokan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
