Is there any hope to see original VN AIR in English?
I've read Clannad and Kanon - and now I can't even watch their anime adaptations... They look like different stories... about your old friends. I hope I could read Maeda's original AIR, not it's adaptation...

Probably not gonna happen in this life time,
Air gets picked up and dropped by translators time and time again
The VN has been stuck at little more then 50% for years now.
There just isn't that much interest in the game with English speakers it seem.
Unless It gets picked up by mangagamer or something like that, I don't see it getting translated anytime time soon, if ever, but I'm sure they have a very long list of more popular and newer VN's they'd prefer to translate first, so I wouldn't count on them.
For now, enjoy the average of 2% translation progress per year.

Didn't someone dump the 50-60% translated portion of the script a while ago on /jp/? I might dig through the archive and check, but it's going to be tough to find.

That is why I post OP post... And their forum is dead now. So I suppose they submitted to VisiulArts demands... I think it was stupid.

VisualArts would target fan translators translating some of their lesser-known works. Not so sure if it's hypocrisy. They didn't target LB or Tomoyo After for C&D. And Kanon and Clannad were untouched by some C&D bullshit. And nobody's working on Kudwafter.

VisualArts tends to be pissed about non-Japanese in general and throws in all kinds of shit to stop piracy, including the new anti-non-Japanese OS Siglus engine for Rewrite. Of course, Key has no say in this and doesn't give out C&Ds.

I guess the main trouble is the lack of interest that translators have for Air, so they tend to pick it up and drop it repeatedly.

Maybe someone could translate it but not spread the word all over the place until it's finished?
but yes, that is stupid.

Jeez, that's been a while with no update. It would be great if someone picked it up that actually had the intention of finishing it.

They've already dropped it.
