Birdy the Mighty Volume 04 Chapter 07

This is our final release of Birdy for the foreseeable future. We might pick it up again, but I doubt it. So I set it free. Let anyone who wishes to translate it translate it. Of course, I have scans of all 20 volumes and will provide them to anyone who wishes to continue the series. Anyway, it's been a blast so thanks for reading.

Birdy Hiatus Announcement

Hey guys, besides the overall burn out fall is coming quick. And in fall comes Japanese proficiency tests. Between GoE and I, we plan on taking several different ones, so time previously spent on Birdy needs to now be spent on study. You may not know this, but in Japan, tests mean everything when it comes to getting a job. You could be completly bilingual, have lived in Japan for 40 years, but if you haven't passed the test, your resume will just be thrown away.

But even so, poor GoE isn't a girl who can quit in the middle of something, so we have to get to a stopping place or she'll go insane. The next good place to stop is the end of "The Child of Quarter" story arc. Thus, Volume 4 Chapter 7 will be our final release.

Now do I mean "FINAL" final? Maybe. We don't know yet. Tests will go all the way till the end of this year. But in January 2010 we will no longer be studying. So check back then and you may just find a stream of new chapters. I'll be sure to give some more updates on our thoughts as we work up to our final chapter.

Birdy the Mighty Volume 04 Chapter 02

Will Birdy rub against more lamp posts? Will we ever see Capella? Will Botulous spooge on more people? Find out in this exciting issue of: Birdy the Mighty!

Hey guys...

I always seem to only post when there's bad news...
Radical Dreamer was a bit optimistic...truth be told I'm already completely burned out.
This week will be late, but it's mostly done...My principal came to me today and announced that not only was I expected to play translator for some principals coming to our school from Iran tomorrow...he also had some worksheets he wanted me to translate...so...yeah...Birdy got pushed aside...
I'm trying to get it done...but it'll prolly be a day late
sorry!!

New Release Scedule

Hey everyone. Long story short, doing Birdy a chapter a week has become too much for us. We are frankly burnt out. Especially GoE. Originally it looked to be a half and half kinda thing, with us both translating and combining those together at the end of each week. However, due to the time editing and scanlating takes, I spent less and less time translating till I spent almost no time at all; leaving it all on her. Something that is supposed to be fun has become a chore for both of us. So we are left with 2 choices, give up on Birdy and wash our hands of it, or make a major change. For now, we're going to try for the second option. Thus for the forseeable future, Birdy will be released once every two weeks, with the next chapter coming out on next Thursday. I hope this will make it more manageable for us, yet not leave you all out in the cold.

~Radical Dreamer

Birdy the Mighty Volume 04 Chapter 01

Every once in a while, the manga throws a curve ball that even us translators miss. In this chapter we learn that Birdy and Tsutomu (and by extension Megius and the other police) think that Revi is a man. Readers of course know by this point that Revi is female. However, as translators, we made the mistake of thinking that everyone knew Revi was a woman and thus we have had everyone refer to her as “she” in past chapters. From now on this will be fixed and the good guys will call her “he” while the bad guys call her “she.”

For those of you interested in how we made this mistake, I'll tell you. In Japanese, the pronouns “he” and “she” are almost never used. Instead the person's name will be used once, and from then on, the subject won't even be mentioned again. Thus there is no need to say he or she. And us translators just cry.

Georg Gomez. No, that's not a typo. An Aryan man with a Hispanic last name and a Germanic first name... Just remember, to the Japanese, there's Japan, and then there's Gaikokuland.

Megius, Revi and Gomez all speak horrible/strange/antiquated Japanese. It rapes GoE's mind and makes me wanna die.

Of course, that doesn't make this chapter any less interesting.

Right before I got sick... like literally hours before, I finished filming this. Enjoy if you need a laugh.

Birdy Delay

Sorry guys, it doesn't look like there will be a chapter this week. I've been sick in bed and unable to talk since Saturday. Even now I feel like a Dilophosaurus with a sinus headache. I'm doing some work on Birdy now, but it's best that we just get back on schedule next week. Sorry for the delay.

Looks like a delay on the horizon

Sorry guys, but I don't think this week's chapter is gonna make it up. Radical Dreamer is temporarily out of commission. Sounds like a cold from hell to be honest.
Here's to hoping for a swift recovery, and getting the release up next week!
Sorry everyone!!!

God help me, this week I had to proofread on my own. I don't know if this happens to any of you, but I can't proof read my own writing at all. That's why GoE always does it. But since I'm still traveling, this time it's all me. I even looked over it 3 times. I found errors every time, so I'm sure some still remain. Sorry in advance. Oh and if it all goes as planned, we'll be back on our normal schedule next week. So expect another chapter in just a few days.

Temporary release time changes

Hello everyone!
Just thought I'd go ahead and get a post out, in case Exizil doesn't get a chance before he goes on vacation. He will be unavailable for about...uh...2 weeks? but we made sure to get stuff taken care of, so never fear, we SHOULD have stuff to release. I think next weeks will be late a couple days, we're lookin at Saturday, due of lack of internets. and the following week...we SHOULD have ready to go on time...give or take a day. It'll all depend on when exizil will be able to access the internet while he's stateside...and ya know...workin with that cross the world time difference thing.
Please bear with us, we have NOT abandoned anything, we just might be a bit late next week...I don't have scans and such on my puter...nor the confidence to do Exizils job, as he does such a good job of it!
right, sorry about the long rambling message, I have this terrible tendency to get too wordy.
anywho, we will continue to keep the Birdy releases coming, like I said, next week and the following, the release day/time will be a bit off. But it IS coming! PROMISE!!!

A shout out to Birdy fan Dingo. He took the time to point out to me that in the first chapter of Birdy, the boys over at Chikan Manga missed a page in their scanning/translating. Luckily, I had a few mins to spare and the raw scan laying around. So here's the missing page scaned and translated.

Thanks again for the support, hope you guys continue to enjoy Birdy.

Just a quick "Hello"

Hey everyone, thanks for the comments and support! It really helps me stay motivated. I'm the other half of 2BIG, the less computer friendly half. I felt kinda bad since I hadn't posted or anything yet, even though Radical Dreamer went through all the effort to make sure I could.
So, without further ado, Hi! I'm Goddess of e.
We seem to be continuing according to schedule so, I don't think there will be any problems getting you guys a new chapter every week. Hopefully I don't end up eating my words, right?
Thanks again!

Release: Birdy the Mighty v01 c10

Well, here's our second release. Enjoy.

It looks like we'll release a chapter this time each week (past midnight on Thursday) . Also, for those of you who are interested, I'll get rss set up sometime before the next release.

2BIG

Welcome to 2BIG. This is what happens when you get two bored gaijin trapped in Japan with nothing better to do than translate manga. Our current project is Birdy the Mighty (Tetsuwan Birdy) which we are starting at Volume 1 Chapter 9. Why chapter 9? Because the guys over at Chikan-Manga translated the first 8 chapters before they dropped the title. They did fine work and I see no need to waste our time re-translating. I expect we will have chapter 9 to release for you by 1/24/2009.

Peace.
