Melty Blood Type Lumina Community Translation Patch complete!
See the link.
Given the state of the original translation, I decided to retranslate the game some months ago, and that project is finally complete.
Enjoy!

Wait, so Soujuurou's NP is "座●不明悪霊●し" The first censored character is probably 標, making the first two words "coordinates unknown", while the second is probably 殺, making the second part "evil spirit killing".
What is the significance of these words?

This picture always makes me laugh. It's accurate, but even though I suspect it was made in mockery, the fact that it so accurately hits upon Nasu's thing as an author is endearing.
Like, you may present this as something bad, but to me, this is why he's the GOAT.

The TM Dead Eyes Girl's Club
This lineage originated with Alice and generally has some pretty Bad Bitches included. Honorary mentions go to Kohaku and Illya who have alternate Dead Eye forms.
There are also some men such as Kuzuki, Kiritsugu, Kotomine and Kurogiri, among others

F/GO fans really have to gall to say "you should be thankful to F/GO, actually" when all it has ever done is screw over other TM projects.
Have some shame, please. You get to have your gacha game and older fans basically gets crumbs for years. Isn't that enough?

This is a BG from TsukiRE you can only find in the files. It's used once as a visual trick on Day 5 in Ciel Route (highly zoomed in), but seeing it in full is only possible like this.
The standing theory is that this is Satsuki's "home" after her "accident".

An interesting theme in LB7 that relates to Tezcatlipoca, (you) and Camazotz, and Olga is something I've not seen a lot of people bring up.
The first scene of Tezca has him contend with your notions of death. This is your real battle against Tez. Proving him wrong.

Here's a comment I found in MBTL's script files (see image)
Translation is roughly:
"This statement looks like it's about Melty vs Fate, but it actually concerns a battle between old Tsukihime (Len) and TsukihimeR."
All I'm saying, is Len confirmed.

Tsukihime is the origin of everything Type-Moon represents. Its principles of idealism, humanity, love, and what it means to live, everything shaped the rest of Fate as well as later works.
If someone can't appreciate Tsukihime then I don't think they understand the franchise.
Fate is the origin of everything the franchise represents. Its principles of idealism, humanity, love, and what it means to live, everything shaped the rest of FSN as well as later works.
If someone can't appreciate Fate then I don't think they understand the franchise.

There are, in a rough estimation, three types of villains that Nasu writes. We can basically map them to three principal villains in KnK.
1. The Araya - Thematically linked visionary
2. The Fujino - Tragic drama-driven heroine
3. The Lio - Pathetic downtrodden man-failure

Therefore, the words here might actually be referring to a showdown between Soujuurou and Gazamy.
The "coordinates unknown" are especially interesting, since in the Mahoyo materials, Soujuurou's final battle is described as "snowy ruins", the same as the background in his NP!

One more thing, when Soujuurou activates his NP, he says the line 亡霊には亡霊 (Wraith for a wraith), possibly referring to the fact that both he and Gazamy are somehow dead?

Pun.
勝津女 (Katsume) contains two of the Kanji to spell 勝利の女王 (Queen of Victory), her title, and even on face value, means "Victory Woman"
フーカ (Fuuka) is a semi-shortening of her name. ブーディカ (Boudica), with the middle part removed, and the dakuten removed from ブ.

This is a sprite of DA Noel crying.
It is shown in one scene, on one page, with half of it obscured (you cannot see the eyes).
Did they make this expression just for that? In which case, that's a lot of dedication.
OR COULD IT BE...
THAT DA NOEL WILL BE BACK?

In CM3, there's a character described who is known as "Gazamy", and his "title" is that of "evil spirit" (悪霊). Because CM3 was written around the same time as Mahoyo, and because Gazamy has never really came up again, I always imagined he was related to Mahoyo 3.

-Avoid the Holy Church for the rest of our lives
-Move to Latvia

-Fight Ciel if we get caught

How to tell someone's only approach to Japanese translation is hitting up words on fucking Jisho.
For the record, "female molester" would be a terrible translation.
@bloomfilters
Asa uses the word 痴女 which means "female molester" in Japanese, not "slut" - not a very good translation.

Regardless, Tezcatlipoca needs you to understand his perspective: death is inevitable. Your struggle against it is admirable, and the correct way of life; something the deinos never understood.
However, death and life are intertwined in time. They bring us toward the future.

That is why humanity will arrive at the final destination. For a true love of life is the acceptance of these facts. It is knowing you are doomed, yet continuing to search for that final answer.
And so, the journey of life continues, its path lit with the brilliance of gold.

I've released a partial patch of the MBTL re-translation. It doesn't cover everything, but you'll be able to enjoy (?) a new and updated translation of Mash and Neco-Arcs adventures (along with other fixes).

That heart, and love of life; the struggle against death; is something you have. You are human. You are not Camazotz.
The path of Camazotz was always open: saving the world on a pile of corpses. But you didn't

Once I have more free time I'll make a really big comprehensive post on the mysteries in TsukiRE.

Honestly one of the funniest parts of the Tsukihime remake getting an official English release to me is that the game contains a teaser for the Far Side routes remake, so they kinda have to commit to plans on releasing that officially in English too.

I've gradually come to resent Prisma Illya for what it has done to the idea of "Illya" as a character.
Illyasviel as she is presented in F/SN is basically present in name and appearance only in Prisma Illya. And yet, when you search for her name, that version is what shows up.

As a result, Tezca has no choice to acknowledge your victory.
Your trial is over, and and as you've triumphed over the side that Tezcatlipoca took, that of sacrificing all of the planet for humanity's salvation, he has no choice but to admit defeat, and acknowledge you.

Roa's love of infodumping is so great.
In Arc Route, he keeps infodumping through Arcueid basically disintegrating him, and in Ciel Route, he only starts talking on Day 13 (voiceless) to infodump about Noel's powers, and keeps this up on Day 14 as well.
He's just like me.

This has to be the most cynically sad comment I've seen in a while. Koi never misses.
Think of the market penetration! Aim for the holiday season! That's right, fanTL really dropped the ball here with the release timing because every Tsukihime fan was reading LB6 at the time.

Was just checking out F/HA on a whim to find a quote and ended up reading a bunch of stuff. Gotta say, I know I already ranked it like third or something last time, but maybe I gotta move it up because my god is this inspired. No wonder Nasu felt he was done as a writer after.

It's funny how technically FGO only confirmed now that Yumina = 1st Magician, despite the fact that in my mind it was all but confirmed for years now. It's been a long journey.
「まほよ」だけではユミナはまったく分からない。特典本でせいぜい有珠が扱う特殊な魔術系統であることぐらい。「事件簿」でユミナが植物科の開祖だと判明した。さらに「HFⅢ」の一問一答でユミナ＝魔法使いだと確定した。そして、「FGO」で第一魔法の使い手こそがユミナだと分かったと

And to some extent, Camazotz understand this. He loathes this weakness of his. That is why he wishes he could shed tears like a human would.
This is why after his boasting, he declares himself a weakling who could not save his people other than by sacrificing all of his people.

Tezca says you were just lucky. Your miraculous ability to keep your companions alive is nothing more than a fluke... and...
"Luck always finds a way to even out"
Tezca gives you one of his candy-skulls, which we later learn is a mark of his trials. This is your trial.

One of the key phrases surrounding Edmond Dantes in F/GO is "恩讐の彼方に", which is often translated as "beyond love and hate".
Interestingly enough, this is most likely a reference to a classic Japanese novel by the same name, written by Kan Kikuchi.

But the difference about Camazotz is that he lacked the compassion of life that you do: "Feelings weren't needed for mankind's final warrior"
This is the principal difference between you and Camazotz. This is why Camazotz is the undying, yet meaningless, legacy of the Ka'an.

LB7 itself is themed around death, obviously. This in itself is a very central theme to Nasu.
Throughout LB7, you do what you always do, despite the seemingly impossible task: you save as many as you possibly can. Whether it be your friends, or your enemies.

Then we get to the topic of Camazotz. Throughout LB7, he shows an affinity for you, and even your role. Why is revealed later in the chapter.
Much like you, Camazotz was mankind's last warrior. The one who held the burden of his world, the Ka'an, on his shoulders.
