Hello there! I was just wondering if you had any recommendations of dropped web novels that you want to be picked up by a translator. I am willing to translate a few novels because I have free time . The novels will be MTL'd, but I will edit and proofread them as much as possible. Key points of the dropped novels: •Preferably Japanese •Good rating (3-5 stars) •The original story, which is in Japanese, is not dropped •RAWs can be found on Syosetu •Will not have any copyright or legal problems •Not BL •Not R-18 (Sometimes, my nieces use my computer) Those were the main points. I won't mind if the dropped novels don't include those, but I'd prefer them that way. I want Japanese because most novels are free to translate, unlike Chinese or something. Yours truely, CadmarLegend the Translator P.S.: I am not a bot
I believe they are just trying to raise awareness for novels people want translated. You would have to ask, but I believe almost all the novels are open to be picked up by anyone seriously interested in translating.
Go to Series Finder on NU Select chosen language Japanese Release frequency min 90 days (since we have a three month rule for marking it dropped) Select the min ratings Select your preferred genres, double click for a genre you absolutely do not want Tags, whatever you wish to include/exclude Sort results by last updated, descending And voila! You will have your preferred selection! Good luck!
Doesn't this basically exclude every novel you don't have a license for? Or are you talking about big problems (i.e. companies actively coming out to sue you)?
I heard it was possible with JP novels from certain sites, but it's definitely less likely than with KR publishers~ I'm not very involved with JP novel translations though, so I can't give you much information regarding this, sorry.
good idea! Yeah, I should've realized that, but I was still new to the site back then.... I'd only made an account here for fun and then just got into SHF and never came back until now...... Yeah. this one. a great choice, I've gotta say.
Yeah. I don't really need money by joining a big group or something.... maybe partly because then it would literally be me by passing the copyright law.... haha..... but I am willing to accept nuffie donations....
