Mirage of Blaze Translations

Update: Asphodel's Haven is not down for good. She's having some headaches with her hosting service and is working through them as other life responsibilities permit. I will post another update when the site is back up.

As I continue to be behind at updating this community, Asphodel continues to be prolific with the translation. Since my last update, she has translated...

Volume 17
Volume 18
Exaudi Nos (side story)

These are all nicely indexed at her main translation page:

Many thanks, Asphodel!

Wow, am I behind updating this community. My last post said Asphodel had translated through volume 9. She's been whizzing along and is now in volume 12.

Here's the link to her main translation index for Mirage.

Asphodel has posted volume 9, chapter 6 already! Here 'tis:

Many thanks as always! That deserves an "inu."

So many thanks to Asphodel for translating volume 9, chapter 3:

This link includes the prologue through ch. 3.

Asphodel has completed her great translation of the Nagehide-centric side story from Raise the Red Flag: http://www.asphodelshaven.com/translation/novel/mirage-blaze-raise-red-flag

Give it a read. It is fun and revealing, with sides of Naoe-Kagetora angst.

And that deserves an inu (icon).

I've decided to open this community up to Mirage of Blaze-related posts that are not strictly about translation and summaries. Meta, fan fic, images, etc. will now be welcome.

My Reasoning:
1. When I started this community on LJ, it was a complement to the Mirage fandom community there, which is now defunct. There has never really been a DW community to take its place. Asphodels Forums have wonderful stuff but are also disconnected from blogging/social media-type platforms, so people don't go there much. (Check them out, though. Awesome, like her whole site.) Tumblr... I'm not going to get into it. Other current options appear to be largely chat oriented, which is not the same as a stable archive.

2. It's not like this community is high traffic or is going to be, so I don't think opening it up will mean translated-related stuff gets drowned out.

All the translation links will remain on the profile.

So if anyone reading this wants to gush about Mirage, please feel free to do so here.

Now added to the community profile: four new links since my last update:

* Kaikou prequel volumes 14 and 15 summary: Thank you Rina!
* Bakumatsu prequel summary: Thank you, Rina!
* Subtitles for the third stage play, Yashashuu Boogie Woogie Nights: Thank you quaint_twilight!

(Scroll down for all links. Prequel sections are at the bottom of the profile.)

Rina has summarized the final Shouwa prequel volume:

Thank you!

It is a happy problem to have so much Mirage translation and summary that, as a community administrator, I can't keep up with it. Here are the new posts I've finally added to the profile (click this community's profile for the links):

* The start of volume 9, translation by Asphodel
* The start of volume 18, translation by quaint_twilight
* Showa prequel summaries with some translation: vol. 7, 8, and final scene, by Rina

Thanks to all three for their amazing commitment to this story!
