 		Heh, This thread is cynical enough already, but it's funny how this coincides with them adding a new item to the Slusho store.

 		I'm sorry, I just jumped in on this. Do we still need a translation? Cause I think I can do a good part of it, actually....
Can someone link me to a good picture of the Japanese text? I don't know where its from.

 		Oh man.
Thanks very much. I'm usually pretty good with the language but I really only know a handful of Kanji (the really complicated looking ones).
I'll see what I can do now... but I might also fall asleep.
I'll see my friend, who is fluent, in the morning, but I feel you'll likely have it solved by then.
If I can't do much on my own, I'll just check in the morning and see if its time to ask my friend for help, or if you got it.

No kidding. Kozmo and I have been trying to use what little Japanese we do know to translate the letter. It would definitely help if someone who KNEW Japanese happened to stumble on in here... like now. Smile


I don't know Japanese (and am now hating myself for not sticking with it when I tried to learn it a couple of years ago), but... Would it help if you had part of the letter in text format? So that you could plug some of the characters into a translator or something? Because I've got some of it done, missing a few characters and probably got some others wrong, but... I'll post it if it would help.

Sorry if this has been brought up. I know I should read all previous pages first, but it seemed time was of the essence if people are trying to translate right now directly from the image itself. Just don't hit me with that freaky Silence of the Lambs trout image I saw the other day. Wink


Yes! Post it now! Please!

Okay. Hoping the Japanese text doesn't go all wonky. I warn you, i KNOW some of these characters are WAY wrong 'cause I was working from the blurry thing and trying to hand-transcribe them into the Windows handwriting thing. One of the characters I got, for example, seems to mean "large bell used as a musical instrument." I'm guessing that's not right. But anyway:

(? = placeholder for ones I couldn't see enough to attempt)

Edit: Apologizing in advance to anyone fluent in Japanese if my mis-transcription results in anything insulting.

When you search Makoto Susumu that friggin Atragon movie comes up again. It did the same with Katei.

Atragon is an undersea battle ship. With a huge drilling device on the front of it.

 		"Kidney cat membrane" seems to be popping up a lot. Perhaps a problem at the new animal research centres?
