Never forget
Posted by Leopard in Uncategorized on May 26, 2009
P.S. Despite the exams we are still working on the subs, so if everything is okay, ep 20-21 will be released in the beginning of the next week.
End-of-year Exams

II-subs has always strived to get releases to our fans in a timely manner. However over the next two weeks many of our translators and other prominate members have real-life related work that will help determine their future and after they are finished, allow more time for fansubbing.
We hope you understand that some of our releases may suffer and these release dates may become pushed back.
We appreciated your understanding on the matter.

This is how II-subs looks after a long and arduous translation/editing session.
Sora wo Kakeru Shoujo 18 released!
English editors wanted
Posted by chapt5 in Uncategorized on May 15, 2009
II-subs is looking for english-speaking editor or, better to say, editor/co-translator. I’ll explain briefly how it works.
Both of our translators are russians and while we have some knowledge of english, as you may see since I’m writing this, our dictionary is narrower than those of people with native english knowledge and we might make errors sometimes (ha-ha, or even often). So we write initial translation making comments where needed, explaining the meaning of the sentences, providing literal translation or suggesting different wordings. Then editors come into play and fix the errors, paraphraze lines to make them sound better, check that the suggested translation has the intended meaning, etc.
That’s harder than your usual editing, obviously.
We currently have two active editors, spiralbro and lolwat, but since anything can happen and anybody might be busy and unavailable for a while, plus splitting the duties reduces the amount of work on each editor, plus where one editor doesn’t know what to do, another will think of something, etc etc, because of all of that it’s better to have a third editor to help the current ones.
If you’re interested, here’s what you’ll need to have:
1. A good knowledge of english language (though I’m not the one to lecture you here, ha-ha)
2. A habit of being responsible and staying in touch (and actually editing something when needed!).
We’ll appreciate your help.
As a side note, episode 18 is going to be released in a short while. The absence of pic is unrelated.
Update. We’ve found two editors so this vacancy is closed. I’ll leave the post though for those interested in the translation process.

Sorry for delays. We’re releasing the episode as soon as it’s done, which should be certainly not later than Saturday. I don’t want to announce fixed deadline since we tend to break them a lot. Maybe tomorrow, maybe the day after that. Sorry again.
