Blech...

Shino: Sorry about that last post. I was trying to join this scanslation team and this was the "Translator's Test" I had to take. (I passed BTW, thank you. XD )

I'm sorry I haven't been talking to you bloggy. :c But you know how much I hate school, right? I even had ALL of last week off, but I spent most of it downloading music, watching TV, doing HW, or hanging out with friends, BUT NO ART. I feel happier since I ACTUALLY got to hang out wit mah hommie G's, but I'm still so sad that I'm not doing any art. I looked at my dA account, and found out the last art I updated was at the end of June, and that was an old artwork from high school too! The ACTUAL art that I've made is from the end of March. Please shoot me now *hears a bang in the distance* *ducks out of reflex* CURSES!!! DX

Well, check out my (and da Levsta's) dA account since that's where we're hanging out more. XP

Me taking a Translator's Test

(Translator’s Note: I wasn’t sure if you wanted to keep it 死神/Shinigami, or change it to Soul Reaper like “Bleach” or actually translate it to Death God, so I just did the English equivalent to Shinigami, the Grim Reaper. It’s also a little hard to translate without knowing what’s going on before it. (^_^;) )

Page 1

Bubble 1: About your other question… Because you committed suicide, you will go to Hell. Suicide, causing not only pain to family but to others close to you as well, is a disgraceful crime.
Bubble 2: As proof of this, from your body is being released the “Devil Essence,” which only surrounds criminals.
SFX 1: ゴオッ/GO (a SFX when something big is coming)
SFX 2: オオオオオ/OOOOO (strong wind)
Bubble 3: Oops, the Grim Reaper’s already here.
Bubble 4: ……!


Page 2

Bubble 1: Now that the Grim Reaper has arrived, it’s too late
Bubble 2: Because you’ll be taken to Hell.
SFX 1: オオオオオ/OOOOO (strong wind)
Bubble 3: You’ll probably burn in boiling magma for eternity.
Bubble 4: No! P, Please help me!
Bubble 5: I don’t want to go to Hell!! Please you have to help!!
Bubble 6: Then, do you want to sign a contract with me? Lawyers fight against the Grim Reaper, and protect the client’s rights and benefits.
Bubble 7: In other words, if you sign a contract with me…
Bubble 8: I’ll bring the unfair parts of the crime you’ve committed to light,
Bubble 9: And may be able to get a “Not Guilty” verdict for you.

Bubble 1: Well? Do we have a deal?
Bubble 2: Yes! I’ll do it!!
Bubble 3: Good, then sign here.
Bubble 4: I won’t be needing any pay. Yes, right there…
SFX 1: ドタン/Dotan/Thud
Bubble 5: ……
Bubble 6: Phew! It’s too hot, I can’t take it!
Bubble 7: What are you doing Master!? Taking such a long time with one brat!
SFX 2: ガバッ/Gaba/Slide (remove clothing)
Bubble 8: I don’t have ANY idea who that is! So, hurry up and sign Jake!
Bubble 9: WaWa, Wait a minute.


Page 4

Bubble 1: There something wrong with you guys! Are you trying to trick me!?
Bubble 2: How long are you going to keep up the act on that brat Master!
SFX 1: パンパン/Pan Pan/Pat Pat
Bubble 3: Alright, listen here kid! We’re here to suck the Devil Essence out of you!
Bubble 4: It’s the source of our power after all! If we do that, then I can go back to being the incarnation of fear…The Dragon King!
Bubble 5: The incarnation of fear?
Bubble 6: That’s right, everyone’ll be shaking in their boots!
Bubble 7: Jeez, it’s ruined now you idiot!
SFX 2: ボフッ/Bofu/Bamph
Bubble 8: …H, Huh?
Bubble 9: Just ignore that freak’s rambling.
Bubble 10: Let’s just finish our contract. Now sign.
Bubble 11: …No! I won’t be tricked!!
SFX 3: ドン/Don/Shove

(Translator’s Note: What’s this manga called? I’m interested now and wanna read it! XP)
