Quick Translations | Disgaea 3

[charmwitch.livejournal.com]

nenena is extremely gracious with the scans they provided. You can find them here

Translation of a few parts of the articles :

- Mao was designed with "mad scientist" look in mind.
- Raspberyl is Mao's rival to be best student. She wants to surpass him no matter what. (...Yet her title is...)
- Almaz is a HERO OTAKU hahaha. He sounds really timid in the screenshots, or perhaps not very confident. This goes with "Lame Hero" that's written next to him in one of the scans. Also, he might have something to do with the white haired lady ontop, because there's reference to a "princess he wants to protect" in his description.

- Eringa, Merchant girls *(PB), Chefs* (MK), and Saber Kitties (PB) are back.

*Unsure of what their class titles are in this game.

- Combos are diagonal now.
- Succubus are back (they REALLY look like Prier D: )
- Mao's father is an Overlord, and he's his only child.
- Almaz is a "self proclaimed Hero". Hahaha. ( 自称勇者 )
- Mao considers Almaz his "target" ...uh? (Could be the other way around. Almaz considers Mao his target)
- Almaz uses rather polite Japanese.
- Apparently Mao and Almaz are rivals by nature.
- Mao's title is Netherworld's Honor Student
- Mao's glasses show he's a youngster. Can't forget correcting your vision in your youth! I guess?
- Raspberyl's title is "Netherworld Delinquint"
- Almaz's title is "Hero"
- Mao's title is "Netherworld's Honor Student"

If anyone wants to help make a more coherent translation, please feel free to comment. (And correct things I might have gotten wrong.)

narugami graciously translated the character descriptions.



In the comment by Harada it says he's[Almaz] the second main character of the game, which is why he has a red thing around his neck (it's the rule of Disgaea character design apparently?! so that's why he does it all the time) and the white gakuran is a takeoff of student council presidents in old anime TV shows. HEE. Apparently he wants to be a hero for this princess he has a crush on, but he's not actually strong at all and ends up losing the title of Hero to Mao, and now he's starting to turn into a DEMON without it. Oh poor guy

I can see he's going to make me cry with laughing and laugh with crying already. When he meets Mao he offers to save him (?!) and then to be his private tutor in becoming a hero, and then says "Eeek! Er, what's with those blazing eyes and drool like you're looking at an animal...? It's kind of creepy.." He's going to SOOO get exploited left and right, this guy. いやな予感がするんですけど。。。

Mao's is also very promising. In the Netherworld school the most obnoxious evil students are the honor students, and Mao is the most elite honor student ever XDD;;; His father is a Maoh (har har har) and Mao wants to defeat him, but his analysis of many video games has led him to believe that only a Hero can defeat a Dark Lord. So while Mao doesn't actually like humans or Heroes, he decides to become a Hero. So he can beat up his dad. Okayyyyyy...

Also he is a mad scientist and when he finds a research specimen his glasses blaze (erk) and has a red crescent-shaped scar from when he was a child. Oh God it's Harry Potter.

And the heroine Rasberyl is the number one delinquent in the school, which in this context means someone who always goes to class, likes volunteering, and never forgets her homework. She's also Mao's childhood friend and rival, and the heroine and mascot character (x_x Haradaaaa) of the game.
