It's a VN project
defan752 - Today at 8:54 PM
Before you start
Do note that I will not be joining your project, unfortunately
I have a full plate
Ryougi Shiki - Today at 8:54 PM
I think you mentioned you weren't above N1
defan752 - Today at 8:54 PM
Yeah.
Ryougi Shiki - Today at 8:54 PM
If that's the case you most likely wouldn't qualify anyway T.T
defan752 - Today at 8:54 PM
Welp...
Ryougi Shiki - Today at 8:54 PM
We need someone with near-native levels meaning they have to be extremely comfortable with keigo and dialects
defan752 - Today at 8:55 PM
I see...
Well, the deal is that N1 =/= native.
Ryougi Shiki - Today at 8:55 PM
Yeah, it's a starting point
That's why we don't consider people below N1
defan752 - Today at 8:55 PM
A pure N1 student will not be able to understand much of the slang used in anime/manga/VNs.
Ryougi Shiki - Today at 8:55 PM
^That too
defan752 - Today at 8:55 PM
You sure you can't tell me what it is?
Ryougi Shiki - Today at 8:55 PM
It's a VN project
(Visual Novel)
defan752 - Today at 8:56 PM
I know, but there are literally hundreds of VNs out there.
Ryougi Shiki - Today at 8:56 PM
The budget is 1 million yen for a 1 hour demo
defan752 - Today at 8:56 PM
Hold on, is this an official thing?
Ryougi Shiki - Today at 8:56 PM
No, it's not official. /s
defan752 - Today at 8:56 PM
Are you asking for a translation or a writer?
Ryougi Shiki - Today at 8:56 PM
Translator
I'm the writer
defan752 - Today at 8:56 PM
You're writing a VN in Japanese?
Ryougi Shiki - Today at 8:56 PM
in English
defan752 - Today at 8:56 PM
And you want it translated to Japanese.
Ryougi Shiki - Today at 8:56 PM
And Korean
I'm a native Korean
Well, that's one of the things.
1. Communicate between JP staff and EN staff
2. Translate scripts
defan752 - Today at 8:57 PM
Where does the JP staff come in?
Ryougi Shiki - Today at 8:57 PM
3. Help recruit professional JP staff
defan752 - Today at 8:57 PM
I thought you said you were the writer...
Ryougi Shiki - Today at 8:57 PM
Yes
defan752 - Today at 8:57 PM
I see.
Ryougi Shiki - Today at 8:57 PM
Please note i never said I was the Japanese writer
defan752 - Today at 8:57 PM
Quite an ambitious project you've got there.
Ryougi Shiki - Today at 8:57 PM
More pressing arguably is the communication rather than script translation
Thank you. It's a lot, but I'm sure you understand.
defan752 - Today at 8:58 PM
Indeed.
Ryougi Shiki - Today at 8:58 PM
:heart:
defan752 - Today at 8:58 PM
Good luck with all of your endeavors.
Life is too short not to chase your dreams.

defan752 - Today at 8:59 PM
I really like that film, lol
Ryougi Shiki - Today at 8:59 PM
I love it so much that I became a Miyazaki disciple after seeing it
Also let's be friends
I sent you a request
defan752 - Today at 9:00 PM
Heh, sure.
Ryougi Shiki - Today at 9:00 PM
Thank you!
defan752 - Today at 9:00 PM
NP. Good luck!
Ryougi Shiki - Today at 9:00 PM
