Drama CDs: Classic Vol 1(3/3)

And we end this drama CD training in the forest with elves!

Enjoy!

Next time, we start the event I've been waiting to share!

Drama CDs: Classic Vol 1(2/3)

For Limit Break news, new gal Paynia is out... and obviously I had to post a gif too, coz you don't see eye-nipples (?) every day.

Now, here's the second part! Not to diss the previous translator, but I was surprised at how many lines I had to fix coz they didn't match the actual script! Good thing I was able to make sense of it all in the end :p

Enjoy!

Drama CDs: Classic Vol 1(1/3)

So remember when we did part 2 of these, and I said volume 1 had never been subbed? Time to do so!

Credits to nirvana for the translation.

Enjoy!

Queen's Blade Spiral Chaos Opening Translation

For the poll on 7Sins global, "pretty good" won with 9v-43%, followed by "could have been better" with 7v-33% and then there was "awesome" with 5v-24%. Nobody voted on "didn't really like it".

Hm, I kinda had to tap out early coz I wasn't really sold on the combat, and RNGesus didn't help this time...

Next poll is about possible Cattleya's helpers?

And now for something a bit different! We're not adding it to our current translation patch for now, since my partner thinks the lyrics are rather hard to follow to the public at large (in fact, we seem to discover a new perpective every time we sit down to discuss 'em)... oh well, I tried.

Enjoy!

Drama CDs: Classic Vol 2(3/3)

For the Rebellion redesigns poll, "they look good!" won with 20v-63%, and then there were "I'm quite hype!!", "could be worse" and "not my cup of tea..." with 5v-16%, 4v-13% and 3v-9%.

Yaaay! Could we be actually close to learning what Limit Break has in store for us...?

Next poll, we ask for best priestess!

And here we finish this drama CD!

Featuring Leina, Risty and Tomoe.

Enjoy!

Drama CDs: Classic Vol 2(2/3)

For this week's news, the QBLB twitter pulled out all the stops, and not only posted pics with Airi & Elina in funky cloaks, and a pic with Rebellion redesigns, but also claim that the game will "release soon"! (dunno if as soon as the 12th, or that's just another contest they're running)

For the speed eating poll, Risty beat Ymir 32v-86%  versus 5v-14%.

Poor Ymir, guess no one can face the fiery amazon we know and love...

Next poll, we ask about these very apparent Rebellion redesigns...!

And continuing the drama cd, this could be the highlight of this CD...?

Featuring Shizuka, Cattleya, Claudette and Nanael.

Enjoy!

Drama CDs: Classic Vol 2(1/3)

For the news, today was QB's anniversary... tho we haven't heard much from HJ lately, have we.

Regarding the etiquette poll, Tomoe beat Melpha with 30v-81% vs 7v-19%.

Hm, so Tomoe's exotic allure kinda makes her seem more refined, is that it...?

And next poll, we finish the 2nd event polls!

So here we begin with a short, classic CD!

It *is* the second part of a drama cd we've had translated forever in the Downloads page (the one with Tomo, Leina and Nana on the cover), and as such might reference it a couple times... though I suppose listening to a CD while reading a DOC isn't really something couth, so we'll probably sub that one soon too.

Enjoy!

Queen's Blade : Commissions Part 6

So here's one of those rare posts we do highlighting commissions! Unfortunately my partner (who is really knowledgeable in all art matters as you might know) wasn't available, so you'll have to make do with my dullish/sparse comments alas! This time around, they're all works our fellow Discord mod, The Evil Overlord, got for us!

First, there's one Grimoire-y pic with a Christmas theme, by Bad Pierrot:

Queen's Blade: Tomoe

For the Shizuka opinion poll, "Awesome!!" won with 23v-64%, followed by "Pretty good!" with 10v-28%, and then there were "Could have been better" with 2v-6% and last "Didn't really like her" with 1v-3%. Yaaaay, quite a success for our long-awaited kunoichi I see :3

Next poll is about big-ass swords!?

And as a nice companion piece to the recent Shizuka, remastered Tomoe, with all the quality she deserves now! Feel free to download her here!

Enjoy!

QBB update coming soon!

Queen's Blade: Shizuka

For the poll about possible companions to Shizuka, Anarista won with 38v-79%, followed by a tie between Hachiel and Maria with 5v-10%.

Hm, can't say it was much of a surprise, FS is always quite the crowd favorite...

Next poll, what did you think about the soccer gacha collab anyways?

So here's our awaited ninja, fully translated! Grab her here!

Enjoy!

Master of Queen's Blade Excellent Graphics: Aldra, Tomoe

Before I forget, today this White Triangle mook was announced for release. No actual official word from HJ tho on the contents, but might be interesting if you like the game's pics, or if you wanna enjoy the exclusive codes featured there?

For the best mom poll, our Cattleya won it with 20v-58%, followed by a close call between Maria and Cyan with 7v-20% and 5v-14%, and last was Werbellia with 2v-5%.
Poor Werbie, she even got possessed too...

Now next poll, there's this bunny day in Japan that HJ keeps using Melona for, but is she the best choice? :D

And for this week, unfortunately we ran into some nuisance and had to resort to one of these for today, we'll try our best to continue the WT vids next week.

Enjoy!

Master of Queen's Blade Excellent Graphics: Elina, Nanael

For the Deathball/baseball poll, "not big on sports really" and "not big on baseball" won with 24v-48% and 11v-22%, followed by "I love baseball!", "I dabble in baseball here and there" and "I CAN'T STAND BASEBALL" with 7v-14%, 5v-10% and 3v-6%.
Hm, not a sportive bunch for sure, but then again, it's a genre HJ has never shown any interest in, how will it turn out for them...?

Next poll is about WT, obviously~

And seeing as we got some difficulties this week, we had to resort to one of these thingies from Master of QB Excellent, featuring the cheeky duo of Eli and Nana!

Enjoy!

Queen's Blade: Leina 3D

Maybe a bit out of left field by now, but thanks to our buddy Luis' help, we translated the full book of the only 3d classic gal, Leina 3d!

Resolutions: LQ, HQ, HQ+

It comes with all manners of extras too, enjoy!

Queen's Blade 2008 Summer Designs: Melona (3)

For the poll about Melona's charm points, "fun personality", "jiggly chest" and "thick thighs" won with 29v-27%, 26v-24% and 17v-16%. After that, there were her "cute eyes" and "soft bottom" with 12v-11% and 11v-10%, and for the single-digits votes, there were "bouncy ears" with 7v-6%, "adorable smile" with 3v-2% and "nice tummy" with 1v-0%.
Hmm, I see it was a close fight at the top, guess it won't be easy to decide a winner in...--

...The follow-up poll, which of them is the ultimate one?

Now, here's the end of Melona's sure fanciful run of endless disguises!

Enjoy!

Next: No more designs for now! Instead, we begin with a release I've been waiting for like, what seems like ages~!

Queen's Blade 2008 Summer Designs: Melona (2)

For the poll about what Setra is, "an unrepentant pervert" won with 26v-47%, followed by "Menace's good and loyal friend" with 18v-32%, and then "an ancient, wise tool" with 11v-20%.
Hm, but then again, why not all of them~?

Next poll, where would you place Melona's charm anyways?

And here's a bit more gooey Melona goodness, broaching the subject of Ymir's flatness as I kinda spoiled in the comments last time! :D

Enjoy!

Queen's Blade 2008 Summer Designs: Melona (1)

For the poll on Unlimited Setra, "I think it's a good change for Menace" and "I disagree with the change, makes no sense for Setra" won with 21v-44% and 13v-27%, followed by "on the fence" and "I think it's a good change for Setra" with 7v-14% and 4v-8%. "I disagree with the change, it looks bad" lost with 2v-4%.
Hm, lots of differing opinions, seems like good ol' Setra found a way into our heart, huh?

Here's another Setra poll in a row: just what is he...?

And here we start with our pink slime girl and her many faces! (literally 1000, right?) We did need some expert help to make sense of some of the scribbles all over her designs, sigh... :p

Enjoy!

Queen's Blade 2007 Summer Designs: Nanael (6)

By the way, before I forget, remember part 11 of the Menace CD Drama we translated like a year ago, where she entered the men's sauna by mistake? Well, apparently someone with a certain sensibility let Youtube know about the video, and they removed it...
Sigh, I wonder what we can do now... upload it again without the pic, maybe?

For the poll about Unlimited Tomoe, "okay design" and "great design! glad they didn't change it" won with 26v-40% and 23v-35%, followed by "great design! could use more changes" with 10v-15%, and finally "bad design, no changes" with 5v-7%. "Bad design, feels lacking" got no votes.
Hm, seems an overall positive impression, why change what it's not broken, amirite?

Let's go next for one of those funky polls we do from time to time, this time about writing~

And here's Nanael's last part! It is rare to get such raw, unfiltered art in QB...

Enjoy!

Next: Melona... but not before a bit of something else?

Queen's Blade 2007 Summer Designs: Nanael (5)

When it came to the Ymir poll, it was sort of a close result, but "young girl!" beat "old woman!" 38v-60% to 25v-39%.
Heh, being a loli granny is kinda confusing, isn't it...

For the poll coming up, how did you feel about the new Tomoe redesign?

Here's one more bit of Nanael, casually beating the dead horse of her being on a trial~

Enjoy!

Queen's Blade 2007 Summer Designs: Nanael (4)

On the pupil's poll, Nowa took it with 17v-31%, followed by Annelotte and Menace with 13v-24% and 12v-22%. After that, there were Irma and Leina with 7v-12% and 5v-9%.
Heh, of course Nowa was gonna win it. Didn't expect Annelotte so high up, pity that my Menace was so close to 2nd place tho, and my Irma just can't catch a break, huh... :3

This poll's week is about Ymir, and a question we've kinda been wondering about lately (and was part of a VQ entry featuring Liliana as well, if you may recall): is she old or young?

Now, here's a bit more of Nanael! Dunno how clear it comes through, but we're pretty sure that the 3rd pic there is a reference to Evangelion, not only with the giant monster ("kaijuu") and barrier talk, but also the pose itself. The more you know, huh?

Enjoy!

Queen's Blade 2007 Summer Designs: Nanael (3)

So for the "Airi servant or slave" poll, "servant" beat "slave" with 51v-68% vs 24v-32%.
Gotta agree this time, wouldn't be the first time Airi has shown she's into the business just because she wants to, right?

On to a new poll, a pupils one, with a few more options than I initially proposed, but oh well :3

Let's continue with the angel who keeps getting milk all over herself!

Enjoy!
