Localization of dialogue is an art. Building engines and tools is art. Concept art is, well, art. Even placeholding art is art. If design or architecture are art forms then so is any act of building tools or systems. It's all art. And every AI model is built off stolen art, from every art form.

Read Kurai Heya tonight! I flip-flop between calling it “reading” & “playing” visual novels, but this was definitely a title I read—it was definitely more on the novel side! Anyway, it was very depressing (& definitely has some content that can be considered triggering), but I really enjoyed it!

Finished Sayooshi. It was masterful and an incredibly uncomfortable read at the same time. So grateful it was finally translated into English! 😭🙏 Since my headspace is pretty decent right now, I think I'll read Dead End Aegis next...

A lot of ‘90s stuff needs to stay way the hell back in the ‘90s, but imo the ‘90s were correct that clear colored plastic is Fun and Cool.

From Two-Bit Baddie to Total Heartthrob: This Villainess Will Cross-Dress to Impress! LN 6 review: suitablefortreatment.mangabookshelf.com/2026/09/27/f... @jnovelclub.bsky.social

The cover shows Elizabeth, in her military uniform, sitting on a throne-like chair. Sitting on the arm of the chair is a smug handsome older guy with his arms crossed. A younger brown-haired guy bows to her. She's not looking at either of them, but straight ahead.

There’s so much richness and detail that’s completely lost in these kinds of translations, and even if human editors then go through the MTL scripts, that nuance is already gone. Don’t support trash, low effort attempts by individuals who only care about being the “first” to get a translation out.

I really hate all the slop AI and machine translated (MTL) fan translations that are flooding the scene. Years ago, I was ignorant to fan translation sources, but having played many Japanese games for videos at this point, AI or MTL will never understand the nuance of a work of art. Fuck gen AI

If we wanna cut these off at the source, stop sharing them, stop making videos about them, stop hosting them on your websites. Stop giving talentless hacks the attention they crave. Stop rewarding them for defiling our hobbies.

Major update: I am almost certainly going to lose my housing by my birthday. I’ve received notice and even through my efforts it just…isn’t enough. I have about 17 days to find an actually workable solution and…I don’t think that’s going to happen. I think I just won’t have a home.

I have the urge to design another Animal Crossing island, but the path to get there is such a pain (flattening the island, building a catalogue, collecting all the DIYs). I wish there was a sandbox mode or something where you could just design with everything already unlocked!

People get into this field because they love it, but each year, it’s less and less tenable to make it a career, and that’s completely heartbreaking. Good on Jan for speaking out.

Don't give them an inch. Opt out, tell everyone you know to opt out. There is so much amazing creativity and innovation in streaming, and it belongs to us, not to companies trying to steal our work and take all the credit for themselves.

i think you should pay your translators, translation editors, and letters royalties on the series that helped your global manga publishing company reach 100 years in business before you cobble together another "see? you don't have to pirate anymore, we promise" endeavor, but maybe that's just me lol

When the Pokopia DLC comes out, it’s time to dust it off and sink another 100 hours into it! To be honest, I find it kind of overwhelming compared to Animal Crossing (in terms of creation/design). It’s just too open, if that makes sense. Plus, I don’t have any good ideas…

I know I need to practice and review/study if I want to learn Japanese, but I find it so hard to focus on anything after work. Living with chronic fatigue sucks 😵‍💫 Maybe I should schedule a day out of the week just for studying…
