 :( I don't know how to do any of those things ZeaLity needs.

As a random question, why are two of the emoticons on this forum from Naruto? One of them is Rock Lee :lee: and the other is Jiraiya  :jiraiya: Why is that?
Title: Re: Current Events
Post by: ZeaLitY on October 13, 2007, 05:25:14 pm
I'm a huge Naruto fan. After getting the Rock Lee one, I started looking for Sephiroth, and accidentally found Jiraiya. After that, my search sort of fell to inactivity.

Translator Needed

Amazing information lies buried in Japanese publications on the Chrono series, and we'd love to contact Masato Kato (series director). If you can help with either, please drop us a line (chronocompendium@gmail.com).

I got a newsletter sent to my e-mail by Amazon Japan. A Piano Solo Score Book will be released for Chrono Trigger on November 20th.

http://www.amazon.co.jp/gp/switch-language/product/4636849841/ref=dp_change_lang?ie=UTF8&language=en_JP (http://www.amazon.co.jp/gp/switch-language/product/4636849841/ref=dp_change_lang?ie=UTF8&language=en_JP)

Price:     ¥ 1,995 (Tax Included)
92 pages
Publisher: ヤマハミュージックメディア; 菊倍 edition (2009/11/20)
ISBN-10: 4636849841
ISBN-13: 978-4636849844
Release Date: 2009/11/20


Now, note this: the scan of the cover is HUGE, if anyone can decrypt Amazon's Japan code, you'll get a kickass resolution pic.

I don't know, but this is kinda weird o.O it's been years since they released a Chrono score book.

1) I didn't know Masato Kato had a Twitter, that's pretty cool and might actually convince me to get an account. Also, apparently he's a Ghost in the Shell fan.

2) I love the guy, but seriously, this statement is jaw-droppingly retarded.
Title: Re: Current Events
Post by: ZeaLitY on June 01, 2010, 03:57:08 am
Damn, nice find, especially with Twitter. We'll have to get something translated asking if he'd ever like to speak with the Chrono Compendium and send it over. I'll try to make a news update tomororw unless someone beats me to it.

Haha, great find gatotsu! Kato's choice of "masa" as a Twitter screen name strikes me as a secret message to the Chrono community that he's still interested in the franchise, but perhaps it's best not to read into it too much.

We can have a weekly "Translate Kato's Tweet!" contest!
Title: Re: Current Events
Post by: gatotsu911 on June 01, 2010, 05:37:56 pm
It'd have to be more than weekly - he seems to update several times a day.

Also, I'd guess that "Masa" is just short for "Masato", but hey, a fan can dream. And hasn't he (or was it Mitsuda?) said that he's still interested in the franchise?
Title: Re: Current Events

That's right, Masa and Mune were "Grand" and "Leon" in the Japanese script. Heh.

No wonder, check his art work (RD or CT), he always signed the kanji '正/masa' in a square, which looks like 囸 (an alternate form of 日).

Awesome find, Faust.  I had no idea he had a Twitter account. But then again, his namesake is a great deal to us. A translation contest won't be necessary, for a pilgrimage to Google's Language Tools makes it easier for the rest of us. Masa's latest tweet:

Title: Re: Current Events
Post by: GenesisOne on June 10, 2010, 04:55:31 pm

Hmm...

Judging from Kato's latest tweets, he seems both intrigued and turned off by the sensation known as goosebumps. Case in point?

Quote from: Kato's tweet (translated)
Goose bumps. On rare occasions. And another surprise or something, I do not like being touched, and become that cold, but suddenly Sutsu body. Similar to the anemia. I caught a pale, falling off to go down, goes out and feel close to black. And simmering arms, bubbling. Soon, it would be utterly natural.
