I have a Japanese copy of Dogra Magra, I've been waiting to try to read it until I've gotten better at kanji... hope an English translation is released someday!
@mar that's soooo cool!! i'm terrible with kanji too T_T i want to try to download some JPN VNs to try and speedrun learning it (something like clannad or air, maybe, with an easily toggleable english translation?) but havent yet. you should totally watch the movie, im gonna wait to see it in the theater, but id be curious to hear your thoughts!
I hope this translation gets finished--the other two I've read were so awful that I had to stop midway despite how enthralled I was by the plot *sweat*
@mousecky i hope so too! it would be a delight to see dogra magra get its flowers it so clearly deserves. are the two you are speaking of the jpn->french->eng translation and the in-progress reddit translation? you should also watch the movie and totally write your thoughts about it
The JP->FR->EN translation is just a mess (footnotes left in where there's no explanations, French quotation marks without their pairs, passages that might repeat in the original but I can't be sure with this goddamn editing, typoes...) and the other one is this one on the Amazon marketplace which I illegally downloaded for my Kindle which is very obviously done with AI. Both were just far too frustrating for me!
