Rules for Requesting Translations & Scripts:

one
e-mail Yamabuki at doki2@usa.net for all requests. Please make sure to state the title, brief description (if new project), and your FanSub group.

also note that Yamabuki would like more shoujo anime to be widely known, so shoujo titles are much more likely to be accepted. (plus it's easier to translate) Yamabuki will work on mecha titles too, but don't expect most of the technical terms to be translated. in fact, technical terms will be left in romanized japanese, and will be left for the editors to figure it out.

one.alpha
if you're looking for completed scripts, please look through the anime scripts page. all titles that Yamabuki translated for Anime West, Team Abcb, and Neko Creations will only be released after the respective group finished timing 'em & released the title. of course, releasing the text script will be discussed with the group first.

any completed scripts that are version 1.1 or higher includes editing credits. please list the original editors when timing it for your group.

two
for available scripts -- once Yamabuki accepts the request, you can choose between two options
a) receive script (Word 6.0/95 format or text) via e-mail;
b) have it ftp'd somewhere.

for new projects -- once Yamabuki accepts the request, Yamabuki will let you know where to send a raw VHS copy of the title. (If you can record the audio onto a MD, it would save Yamabuki some time too)

three
Yamabuki's credits should be listed as

Yamabuki of DokiDoki Translations

for Anime West & Team Abcb scripts, credits to be listed as "Yamabuki Shikibu of Anime West/Team Abcb"

four
Yamabuki accepts SVHS MASTER tapes in exchange for any scripts. Yamabuki doesn't have any set scripts-to-tapes ratio (haven't figured out what would be "fair"), so it'll be hammered out between you & DokiDoki Translations via e-mail.

Yamabuki prefers Fuji H471ST SVHS tapes for the masters.

Yamabuki will also work for manga. Yamabuki's manga collection here and list of manga wanted there.

five
if any of the anime titles get picked up by domestic companies, the scripts will no longer be available.

as fans of anime, please respect the ownership rights of the companies and stop subtitling and distributing as soon as any announcements are made.
