    Linger: Complete. August, 1995. I met him. A branch off Part 3. Mikiya keeps his promise to meet Azaka, and meets again with that mysterious girl he once found in the rain.
    Shinkai: Set in the Edo period. DHO-centric. As mysterious figures gather in the city, a young woman unearths the dark secrets of the Asakami family.
    The Dollkeeper: A Fate side-story. The memoirs of the last tuner of the Einzberns. A record of the end of a family.
    Overcount 2030: Extra x Notes. A girl with no memories is found by a nameless soldier, and wakes up to a world of war.

    It always is. Plus that was in Mordred's CM entry already, IIRC.

    Equals taking away the two page splash of trees.

    Okay, the trees have one line each on them, so it would count more than a hundred if you really count one entire page of one phrase as a page of work.

    Keep in mind that Gengo does not represent the industry standard even a little and that they're only able to charge their customers those rock-bottom prices by paying their translators slave wages and operating on a razor-thin margin.

    Well it has to be higher than Gengo, at least, or else every translator out there would have starved to death a long time ago.

    That's a little disappointing to hear. Though I guess not entirely unexpected.

    Other than poor rates, first thing to expect as a professional translator is an inconsistent salary and months of no income.
