I was pretty impressed with the FW loc as a whole, but this choice was a glaring whiff. The vibe of "Lamine 一家" is basically "The Lamine Family :)" but they went with "House Lamine" which sounds like a GoT thing... and then didn't adjust any of the reactions to the name. Silly

🧹Magical Girl Witch Trials Localization News⚖️
We apologize for keeping you in the dark for so long.
Here is the latest update on the English, French, Spanish, and Korean versions of the PC version of Magical Girl Witch Trials:
■Release Information
We currently plan to add the above languages by the end of 2026. However, due to this being Re,AER's first in-house localization effort, this is subject to change. This will be a direct update to the "Magical Girl Witch Trials" currently available on Steam with Japanese and Chinese language support, meaning if you already bought the game in Japanese, you will receive a free update with the extra languages added. We're doing our best to create high-quality localizations for multiple audiences, and kindly ask for your patience and understanding, We will announce the details and the specific release date of the language update at another time.

■Regarding the Switch Port
The Japanese and Chinese-language Nintendo Switch version of "Magical Girl Witch Trials" was released July 9. While no other international versions have been announced, we will keep you updated on any and all news concerning international ports.
■Further Updates
While the "Magical Girl Witch Trials" official X/Twitter account is currently mainly in Japanese, we plan to provide more international updates soon. We assure you, our translation team is hard at work executing the witch candidates in a variety of languages, and we can't wait to show you what we've been up to in the dungeon.
■Other Inquiries
Any other inquiries regarding the game should be sent via email to [email protected] . Please know that we cannot reply to all emails, or answer all questions.
We hope to provide more updates soon, so please stay tuned.

Inganock of the Raging Flame from Liar-soft will be released in Q4 2026 in English! It will be the ReBORN edition of the game, in a full ultra 2k HD remaster!
I translated Inganock for @KagamiGames. This is an all-new English TL for an HD release of the game.
I'm a fan of Sakurai's Steampunk games in general, but I think many people would call this one the "classic" in the series. Grateful I got the chance to work on it!

Is there anyone, and I do mean ANYONE, left in charge of Localization at Microsoft? In their latest ad, their (presumably) garbage AI translated "I just got broken up with, should I get bangs?" to "I just got broken up with, should I kill myself?" SERIOUSLY?

Contractors on big projects far too often do not get what they need to do their job well in a timely way & then get blamed for delays or errors later
Doesn't matter if they flag the issues immediately. They're outside the institution and therefore easy scapegoats
Marty Stratton, @idSoftware Studio Director, lied about @DOOM Eternal's OST events in a Reddit post that used disinformation to blame me entirely for its failure
Later, he offered me a six-figure sum to never speak about it
The truth is more important.

Melty Blood Type Lumina Community Translation Patch complete!
See the link.
Given the state of the original translation, I decided to retranslate the game some months ago, and that project is finally complete.
Enjoy!
