Master Xehanort's Reports Roughly Translated (Spoilers A-Plenty)

Re: Master Xehanort's Letters Roughly Translated (Spoilers A-Plenty)

True, however he/she paraphrased the reports meaning this rough translation has more opinion then facts.Resulting in a big fanfic.

I'm sorry but I just can't conclusively connect paraphrasing and skim-translating japanese to fanfiction right now. Claiming this as a big fanfic is kind of an exaggeration at this point in time, and until the complete translation appears, this is something we can work with. I'd be more inclinded to say that a paraphrase is a summary of context, not necessarily an opinion. At least, that's what writing and law school classes have taught me.

I mean yeah we could go on and on ahaha, but own words is an arbitrary phrase. Though you might be paraphrasing something using your own words, the context is not necessarily yours. Paraphrase/abbreviate/summarize, all these words are arbitrary. Perhaps me using the word paraphrase to title the thread was mistake, hence what your main problem is, but I feel these are more or less summaries of the reports, not opinions. First person opinions typically have the use of "I think/my thoughts/I believe/I suggest...it goes on. I'm not completely denying your thoughts on a potential large margin of error for the gamefaqs info, but don't completely dismiss or turn shoulder to this until more information is available, or do as you wish

So MX has decently good ideas, but totally is all radical about it and does bad stuff to make good stuff happen in the future. I'm thinking Neutral Evil here, but I could be wrong, obviously.

kinda like xemnas.

this-v best describes it

Not exactly... It's more like there's not good nor evil in KH, just several points of view.

It's a fanfic until further notice, that is all.

XD its cute/pathetic how u think people care.

Wow, if the translations and everything is correct, then not only does the great hero, the chosen one come from Destiny Islands, but also the big bad villain as well. How ironic..

@loke

I'm taking it that the right one is you. Am I right? Booyah?

Re: Master Xehanort's Letters Roughly Translated (Spoilers A-Plenty)

I'm so glad these got translated. BBS makes so much sense now.

Now we see why they're called Destiny Islands for a reason.

So Ven was a Person of Pure light if not artificially.

Makes sense thats how the Xblade is summoned.

And I knew MX wasn't all bad.

Reminds me of Master Mattias , from Luminous Arc 2... But I can't see MX doing this all for a greater good, since in previous games he just looked hungry for power and how he pushed with his foot/kicked the "darknessless" Ven when Vanitas was born, but it'd make a good plot twist that his machiavellic modus operandi (the end justifies means) had the intention of save the whole universe.

This looks like a Gigantic fanfic.The first report looks nothing like the one already translated.

Can I see a link to this? Are you referring to Xehonart's letter? That letter and the first report are two separate documents all together. There are thirteen documents in all: a letter and twelve report thingies.

Right now it feels like that time we called the Unversed Unbirths.


I'm waiting for a thorough translation.

Re: Master Xehanort's Letters Roughly Translated (Spoilers A-Plenty)

Oh, found it. Jordo, you have a huge typo on your first post. The reports are supposed to be numbered "2, 3...13", not "1, 2, 3, 4...12" silly. Haha!

Unless that other thread's numbering of reports were actually wrong. All I know is that Kouli skipped the first one since it's already been translated for days now.

Re: Master Xehanort's Letters Roughly Translated (Spoilers A-Plenty)

So wait... this just confuses me more about Kingdome Hearts. KH made up of the Hearts of the Worlds. And it's purpose is to bring war? KH can be summoned by the Keyblade, but it can only be summoned by a completely Dark Heart and a Completely Light Heart. And the X-Blade is the only Keyblade that can summon it. And KH is always incomplete? And to complete it, you must gather the Hearts of all Worlds?

Shit... rough translations just confuse me.

Don't tell me those aren't accurate translation!
Anyhow, the reports make Xehanort look like a hero but with villainous methods.

I trust this Kouli guy. Every time he's posted something of noitce, somebody always calls him a liar. Then he proves them wrong. Then everybody's like "Oh, we can trust Kouli"

It's the secret boss discovery all over again.

 

[Zulkir]

Eh it's not just trust, it's the makeshift paraphrasing. Like I said earlier, it's that kind of stuff that gets our Unversed labeled as Unbirths, when we get a thorough translation, questions will be raised and answered.

Wording is quite important, just a few words can make all the difference, such as "why did he choose you" should have been "why did it choose you"..ect.

Riiight, because the names unbirths and unversed are so important for the story. If they were called unversed, it wouldn't change anything. Just like Keysword and Keyblade wouldn't make a difference if it was mistranslated. Their role in the story is the same.

The context in these translations is fine. I doubt Kouli, if that's his name, would make a mistake by calling Xenahort Xemnas in one quote, and call Aqua Vanitas in the other. So this is probably all correct.

 

[Romi]

What's surprising is that Xehanort is from DI O_O
Apart from that, thank you This helps make sense of the story.

That isn't surprising, considering how his Heartless knew where to find the door to his home-world's heart.
