Sad to say, but I due to academic reasons (ergo, concentrating on my thesis and trying not to fail out of a scholarship for my masters), I have decided to no longer continue maintaining this infodump, as well as the scanlations. This site will continue to stay up, but content will no longer be updated. Any questions sent here will be ignored. Rest assured that shirts will still be sent. I...

Anonymous asked: Long time no see Sensei! Thanks for all the hard work as always. For people who are wondering about the circumstance for horizon on B-T. B-T has no control over their translators. All the translators are volunteers. Its just a tool to keep everything in order. The current active translator has decided to move all their translations to nanodesu. The translation isn't dead its just migrated....

Shirt Orders Closed.
All 20 slots have been filled and I’ll be sending the order to the shirt maker. For whoever wasn’t able to put in an order, don’t worry as I’ll be making sure there are a few extra shirts in stock in case anyone wants to pick one up. Updates to follow once shirts have been made.

Update on Horizon Shirts
Right guys, so I’ve gotten word back from the shirt maker. The tentative price for the embroidered shirts is 17 USD + shipping worldwide from the Philippines (yes, Philippines). Based on the number of submissions from people interested, I’ll be making a small production run of 20 shirts for now. I also don’t have the money to have a larger inventory made at once too, so please...

Anonymous asked: I was wondering if you knew about the ongoing Horizon manga, and the new (though quite minor) information it gives about the setting? For example, in chapter 5 it's explained that Neshinbara and Naomasa are (sort of) inherited names (they are derived from Ii Naomasa and Sakakibara Yasumasa).

Lecture Video 2 Translation is up!
Here. I’m too lazy to make pictures, just watch the video while you read the translation side-by-side or something. There are some lines that don’t make sense, but that’s because the original line really did not make any sense to me either. Sorry about that.

Anonymous asked: you might be able to work something out with the guy who does perplexitees (tumblr wont let me link, sorry about that) about your shirt idea, if you're interested. He deals with subtle anime/manga/vn references on his shirts, and they're pretty decent quality. It'd be printed, not embroidered though.

Anonymous asked: Having, watched both seasons, and upon re-watching season 1, there was something that caught my interest. At the end of ep. 1, Tori states that his confession would essentially be picking a fight with the whole world. How does he know this? Did he know before hand, that Horizon had a deadly armament imbued into her? Even though in a later episode, it seemed like the news stunned everyone. If he...

Kyoukai Senjou no Horizon Name Callout Chart
Kawakami being Kawakami, put together a bunch of charts in the encyclopedia compiling how every character calls each other character. I’ve taken the liberty of translating them all and putting them in a spreadsheet. Because of the many, many different ways a certain thing can be said (I, you, etc.), I’ve been a lot more literal in translation, keeping honorifics when needed, and...

Anonymous asked: This is for the person who noted that Baka-tsuki seemed to have dropped the translation of the novels. I'm not certain if that's true since I don't keep up with the translation, but one of the translators seems to be working on it for NanoDesu now. They only have a few of the first chapters up, but they say their going to clean up/re-translate the older stuff then move on to the...

Anonymous asked: Sensei, as Gin seems to have gravity control (shown by her manipulating the wood into the fire / Arcabuz Crus) would it be fair to say she's part automatic doll (her arms in for example)?

Anonymous asked: I have pre-ordered the limited editions of the second season of Horizon and they come with these neat little booklet things. Do you know if anyone has translated these? If not, do you know anyone who would because I could scan them?

Anonymous asked: I believe that Season 3, "if" it gets greenlit, there wouldn't be an announcement until late next year. There is a PSP game of Horizon being released next year February so it is a good way to fill in the gaps between Season 2 and a potential Season 3 as it will keep the fans alive.

Anonymous asked: So sensei, now that Season 2 is over and Season 3, while likely, hasn't been announced yet, has this turned out as you'd have hoped? The blog, I mean. Well, the blog and the show? DId you expect the traffic it got? Did you expect how popular the show was going to be, at least in Japan And most importantly, will you be back with us for Season 3 when it comes out?
