context: also from book 12. Somewhat different, I am told, from how it turns out in the anime.
tags>>saiunkoku|translationContext: Ryuuki is on a boat after having left Kiyou. This I think should be around ep 35 of the anime, but I don’t watch the anime, so I don’t know for sure.
tags>>saiunkoku|translationRight now I have about seven scenes of Saiunkoku that I need to edit before I can put on the blog, and I have two translations in progress. >_>
There are a few more scenes I want to translate, but I’ve gotten most of the ones I want to do out of the way.
The next Saiunkoku novel is coming out in May, so there’s a long time to wait.
I think after this I’ll translate some scenes from Legend of the Galactic Heroes, and maybe try my hand at some manga. LoGH would be mostly a self-indulgent project for me, because so few people watch the anime these days. I should try reading something more substantial than light novels or space opera, but oh well. I’m also thinking of reading the Irresponsible Captain Taylor novels, or maybe Crest of the Stars, speaking of space opera.
I just wish I knew more about Japanese fantasy novels other than Twelve Kingdoms.
tags>>randomAnd now I shall talk about the novel plots that interest me the most.

Scene from the end of vol 10.
Disclaimer: I am not perfectly fluent, so neither is this translation perfect. Read at your own risk.
