Been about three months since I finally completed my translation of the official Final Fantasy VII On the Way to a Smile novel but, if you've still to read the 264 pages of text, maybe you'll want to check out TheLifestream.net's fan based audiobook project that's underway....
Case of Shinra is now finished which means I have now completed translating the entire 264 page FFVII "On the Way to a Smile" light novel! Well, apart from the short Lifestream stories that Hitoshura was responsible for. Thoughts...
Some thoughts about what I've translated so far of Case of Shinra. Spoilers ahead. Considering how much FFVII literature I've translated, I'm starting to think maybe I should also go ahead and translate Makoto Shinkai's 5cm novel as well instead of just having summaries for it but... We'll see.
Anyway, thought we were going to get to...
Thought I'd resume the Case of Shinra, the final short story in the FFVII On the Way to a Smile series again now that fellow FFVII fan, Hitoshura over at Thelifestream.net seems to be MIA and a number of people have emailed to ask about my translation of it.

Decided to put in an order for the Beast Player Erin and FFVII On the Way to a Smile novels since I couldn't get them while I was in HK but, it looks like I'm going to have to wait a while because Square-Enix is currently out of print so I will probably get a second batch copy like I did with Makoto Shinkai's 5cm novel. Oh well, at least HMV Japan...
Never knew they released this on the same day as the Blu-ray release of FFVII Advent Children Complete until Amazon JP's automated service recommended it to me today... They just had to do it after I bought all the other books that contained the stories separately. They really know how to squeeze money out of their fans. Anyway, this 263...

It will be animated by A-1 Pictures who produced shows such as Persona Trinity Soul. It...
