Translating Manga ft David Evelyn | The Wonder of Anime Podcast

On this episode, I'm joined by Japanese-English translator, David Evelyn. David has worked on visual novels, games, manga, light novels, and other Japanese media. Currently, he translates for the shounen hit, Kaiju No. 8, and City Hunter. David walks me through how he fell "upwards" into translating and provides some behind the scenes on how the process works. We also talk about visiting Japan, overhearing conversations, those old 90s translations, and more! Want to buy some manga?
