Alka Translations working on Kud Wafter:

From the people who brought us Summer Pockets, key's other neglected visual novel, Kud Wafter, is now slated for a 2020 release.  Alka Translations say they'll do both the 18+ and the all ages versions, so no worries there.  Alka's reputation is one that gets things done, so when they say they're doing something that means it's actually going to happen.  Alka Translations also say they plan to translate Reflection Blue.

Rewrite Harvest Festa is slated for a 2020 release as well, as part of the Rewrite+ project, so very soon now we'll have all of key in English.  Thank goodness.  Such famous works should never have been neglected so long in the first place, but better late than never.

Kudryavka is one of mai waifus, but because the visual novel eludes translation and the movie keeps getting delayed I know practically nothing about her.  It's a frustrating situation that keeps her scene count in '100 Waifus' artificially low.  A problem typical of many of my girls.

I continue to fix more issues in editing, like the realization that 12 x 2 = 24, not 20.  Yes, it took 20 read-throughs to do that math problem right.  I'm about halfway done.  The work is very satisfying because there were still so many obvious necessary improvements left to do.  I'll only stop editing this book once I can read it all the way through without changing a thing, which certainly wasn't the case this time around.

I cut 'The Makers' Overlook' from my music hall of fame on account of it being too boring and repetitive to really count as a song.  Back down to 5470 songs in all.

Oregairu S3 has been delayed due to coronavirus.  Typical.  Let's hope the same fate doesn't await SAO.  The spring season has been extremely lackluster, mainly because all the good shows like Oregairu and Re:zero were postponed, but so long as SAO and Railgun keep airing it hardly matters what else happens.
