Crossbell Archives: Ao no Kiseki Scenario (Chapter 2)


Note: Taken from the Crossbell Archives. Here I go again~ (am I insane? lol) Like the previous chapter, taking this slowly since it's a massive chapter. I like this chapter since we get to meet some of my favorite Sora characters again! ^^

Update: Happy 2015 everyone! ^^ This chapter is now complete~

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

<< CHAPTER 2: WEST ZEMURIA TRADE CONFERENCE >>

>> Security for Trade Conference Opening

The unveiling ceremony of the Orkis Tower in which leaders of various countries were invited was scheduled for the day before the West Zemuria Trade Conference. Upon invitation, the Special Support Section also joined in on the Crossbell State Police Department countermeasure meeting in which the heads of various departments gathered. At the meeting, as a member of the Crossbell City security countermeasure force, Dudley briefly explained each of their assigned roles. According to him, the Special Support Section was to respond to citizen support requests as usual, and to function as backup in cases of emergency.

Site Notice

Busy with Sen no Kiseki 2 at the moment, and will probably continue to be so for another month. So no updates until then. I'm thinking of translating the Sen 2 bond events for Alisa and Fie after I'm done with my first playthrough. And probably any Rean x Alisa events (my ship lol)

Falcom JDK Band Live Concert in Taiwan



Today is not a translation post! Rather, I want to share my experience of the JDK Band Live Concert in Taiwan that I went to this past weekend with you guys (or more like I want to write it all down while it's still fresh in my mind so I can keep this as a memory I can look back on). I hope you guys enjoy it (or not lol! but this is my blog so I can post anything!) Oh, and this is not only going to cover the concert, but my entire day since there were other Falcom events going on that day as well. Beware, it's super lengthy! (b/c it's quite a memorable day for me)

Btw, some pictures are from my phone camera and some from the press (mostly from Sony TW facebook)~

Crossbell Archives: Ao no Kiseki Scenario (Chapter 1)

Note: Taken from the Crossbell Archives. So, looks like I ended up doing more translations for this XD Playing through Ao no Kiseki Evolution right now reminds me of my love for this game~ Anyway, these plot summaries are long starting from Chapter 1 so I'll be translating it bit by bit.

UPDATE: Updated with Supplemental Notes below the summary.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

<< CHAPTER 1: PREMONITION~ NEW LIFE >>

>> Restart of Special Support Section Activities

Lloyd and Elie lectured the two new SSS members on essential things they need to know when carrying out requests, including how to operate the SSS terminal and use of the Police Notebook. As they confirm their requests for the day, Sergei called out to them, "Looks like you guys are already starting." Stopping Noel who was about to give her salutations, Sergei instructed the four to head to the Crossbell Police Academy once they've taken care of the requests and left. Toward Noel who was perplexed by such an ambiguous instruction, Elie followed up saying "That's the Special Support Section's usual style." Wazy laughed while he called out to the others, "Let's go take care of the requests then." Lloyd suggested that they tell KeA before heading out into the city.

Sen no Kiseki: Drama CD

HOMECOMING ~ AT THE END OF THE ROAD ~


Note: Translation script for the Drama CD that comes with the limited edition of Sen no Kiseki ^^  The Drama CD takes place between Chapter 6 and the Epilogue of the game (it's even mentioned briefly in-game by Rean!). I'll be updating this post from time to time instead of making a new post for every track.

UPDATE:  Omg I actually finished this! o(≧∇≦)o (given my track record of not finishing what I start lol)

Sen no Kiseki: Alisa's Past


Note: Another one of my favorite scenes, I really like the atmosphere here ^^ I wish there will be more scenes like this in Sen II~ 
Oh and since you can easily find Sen event videos on Youtube, I won't bother posting a link.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

This happens in Chapter 3 when Rean, Alisa, Gaius, Emma, and Jusis are in the Nord Highlands for their special field training.  Prior to this scene, Alisa had just met up with her grandfather who went missing for years. Lots of rumors surround her grandfather's sudden disappearance years back. In the evening, they shared a meal together, along with the other people in the Nord settlement. Alisa excused herself and Emma, sensing something wrong, urged Rean to follow after her.

Crossbell Archives: Ao no Kiseki Scenario (Prologue)


Note: Taken from the Crossbell Archives. This is actually a translation of the book's scenario section I did a while back.  I doubt I'll continue working on the rest of the chapters, so I'm just posting it in case anyone's interested. 

Btw, MAJOR SPOILERS for Zero no Kiseki. Read at your own risk.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

<< PROLOGUE: TRACES OF D >>

>> Exploration of Old Altair Lodge

Outskirts of Altair City [1], the westernmost point of the Calvard Republic. A search team led by Calvard military officers continued into the deepest parts of the mountain path.  Lloyd, Noel, Dudley, and Arios could be seen. The team hastened their steps to reach their destination: the hideout of the D∴G Cult, Old Altair Lodge. [2]

Sen no Kiseki Chapter 1 (Part 5)


Note: Only covers the main scenario.  One thing I really like about Sen is the addition of these train events.  Has a really nice and relaxed feel to it ^^ Celdic GO!

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Passing by the Trista Radio Station. A slim woman with glasses comes out of the radio station.

Woman with Glasses: .......Yawn~~~...... uh.  The morning sun is too bright.... should I go buy some coffee?....

Sen no Kiseki Chapter 1 (Part 3)


Note: After much consideration, I decided to include translations for the mandatory quests since they're mostly crucial to the main scenario. By the way, I won't be doing the individual Bond Events. Well, maybe later in one big post if I even get that far, but only for certain characters.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

>>> Chapter 1: New Semester ~First Field Training~ >>>

Afterwards, Rean headed straight back to the dormitory.  After resting for a bit in his room, he walked around the dormitory.

Rean: (Well then... the President left everyone's Student Notebooks in my care.  Tomorrow is Free Activity Day so I should probably hand them out within today.)

Sen no Kiseki: Wallpaper Captions


This is a translation of the captions that appear when you mouse-over the characters on Falcom's wallpaper. They're so adorable I just had to share them XD
By the way, since this is supposed to be a secret wallpaper, I scaled down the image.  If you want to receive their wallpapers (in their actual glorious resolutions that is), subscribe to Falcom's newsletter! Go go!

Sen no Kiseki: Fie's Past


Note: Start of my Best Scenes-series! I figure I'm going to start translating some of the more important scenes in the game. Well, probably not important, but my favorites~ ^^

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

This scene happens in Chapter 4 when Rean and the others are in Heimdallr for their special field training. Things haven't been going so well between Laura and Fie since an earlier chapter.  Reason is because Fie told everyone that she's an ex-Jaeger.  Anyway, this is the scene that made me start shipping *cough* Laura x Fie XD

Rean: That's good, so you were safe?....Though I say that, by the looks of it, there wasn't a need to worry?

Rean: That is... an Orbal restoration device.
Eliot: If we find ourselves in a dangerous situation, it'll be good to rest here.

Blue-haired Girl: Well there's no use thinking about it.
Eliot: Doesn't it feel like a building where things might just "come out"...?
Rean: .... I feel that way too. (Still, seems like all the faces I saw in town are all gathered here. As expected we're in the same class?...)

Rean: Ahh... just like the handbook says.
