Special Thanks

I know this is usually at the bottom or somewhere out of the way, that's why I'm putting it on top to make people at least know of their names :P

AnmesicCat from www.japtem.com for helping to get this site up and running.
Ishman (servant of the Big, Fat, Cat, not the one above of course)for being my primary editor.
Members from Re:Translations who tries to help with some of the puns and whatnot.
Various anons and non-anons that helped with the editing.


EC - The First Generation


Intro

The series mostly follow a party of four in their adventure in a system which the manufacturer called Total Immersion Entertainment System (TIES) in the distant future (something like a VR game). Earth underwent a new form of apocalyptic disaster known as the Aurora events. In combination with the lack of fossil fuels, the "modern" world ended and had started anew with a different emphasis on the dominating technologies.

This series can be classified as Seinen, Adventure, Tragedy (although one can just argue it's technically slice of life :P there will be deaths, actually starts with one), Sci-fi and Comedy (slapstick-ish).

Some help with characters since some people couldn't tell how old they from my choice of words to describe them.
Bell - Woman (Young-ish)
Kun - Young Adult
Rick - Older Teen(Youth)/Almost Young Adult
Till - tween/young teenager

    If AnmesicCat from www.japtem.com help set this up, wouldn't it be better just to post it at Japtem?

  2. SumguyoranotherOctober 6, 2014 at 11:19 PM

    No, Japtem is hosting on their own server, paid out of their own pocket. Hosting this there will just put more load on their server and drain their resource.

      What about baka-tsuki?

      Delete
    2. SumguyoranotherOctober 9, 2014 at 9:36 PM

      The old baka-tsuki is okay, but with the influx of the newer mods made it a pain to deal with (as was the case with re:monster)... I don't feel like dealing with them, I'm not sure if this belongs there in any case since it was never formally published (unlike the other series on there). I didn't even thought of putting it on mangaupdate if someone else didn't do it in the first place.

      I didn't thought it would be so much trouble. BT provides a good interface though. And solution for your server problem. May be you can join with some other group? There are some who just post on google docs. At your convenience though.

      Delete
    4. SumguyoranotherOctober 11, 2014 at 11:30 PM

      It was originally on google docs, I'd moved it to a blog because people for some reason have trouble loading the docs there (especially with tablets, tried it myself). It was annoying enough that someone had put it on a blog of their own, so I might as well make one of my own instead.

      I'm part of the re:translation team, I don't feel like joining up with another group. We just don't have our own server and we are pretty ad-hoc. Editors and TLers move around quite a bit, and none of our project are centralized save for the project page. Putting it here is good enough of a compromise.

      Well, as far as blogs go, between Blogger and WP I prefer the latter as an interface, but to each their own, I suppose.
      Rather, I like WP, Find Blogger to be Meh, and EFFING HATE LIVEJOURNAL WITH THE PASSION OF A THOUSAND SUNS.

    Hi there. Thanks for uploading translations of this work, I have really enjoyed reading them so far.

    Also, v1c4's link is broken in the table of contents.
    Currently it's linked to: http://ecwebnovel.blogspot.ca/2014/09/chapter-4-its-never-too-late-for.html
    Working link: http://ecwebnovel.blogspot.ca/2014/09/volume-1-chapter-4-its-never-too-late.html

    =) I had to snoop around to find the real post.

      That's the epub version for mobile devices done by one of the reader (Yuki).

      Souen is done by Endo, but real life is steamrolling him like the rest of us, to the point that there haven't been any Ari for a while.

      Quite a few of us do it cause we want to share the amazing stories, although it's becoming murky with all the for-pay translations. Summer is coming around the corner, so I'm not sure if there will be more releases cause TLers in school will have more time to TL, or there will be less releases cause TLers take vacations~ Enjoy nevertheless~

    When you say seinen what exactly do you mean? Is this wn mature in the gore or sexual department?

    1. SumguyoranotherNovember 15, 2015 at 3:57 AM

      Both, when it goes seinen, it can go pretty deep and out of the blue. I usually put a warning that the chapter contains seinen content. I won't put in the reasons, just a general rating like seen in TV/Movie ratings, to prevent potential spoilers.
