If someone wants to, they can fix the images, I suck at getting them to look right but they look ok on my browser. Also, if someone with Renewal wants to upload better screenshots (I only have that ogm) they should. --Ornette 22:12, 21 September 2007 (PDT)

I took this transcript from Shin-seiki's post on ANF, he didn't mention where he got it from so I don't know where it came from nor who translated it. --Ornette 22:12, 21 September 2007 (PDT)

Bochan_bird translations

http://evaotaku.tripod.com/mail.htm has a number of translations. This one seems to not be in the page at all:

... as a totally hopeless yet respected artist, so "what the hell". Closing your eyes to your own faults, how can you just dismiss it as 'bathroom graffitti'? A mentally bankrupt group like GAiNAX is like a religious cult that... Even so, a jerk-off posing as a god (laugh) who can't get it on... If you won't die on your own, I'll do you a favor and set fire to your studio. Late beyond belief and totally brainless. (racuous laughter) Talk about not knowing your own limits... I don't know if you're putting on some kind of striptease or jerk-off show, but... ...up on your pedestal, you can't possibly be aware of just how stupid you are.

This one seems to be fairly different from the one on the page:

"Shit, GAiNAX! You've made something incredible!! I mean - it's just too awesome! Why did you have to stop part-way? I can't wait 'til summer! - Get the rest out by Golden Week (Apr. 29 - May 5) - Please!!!

The format and keywords correspond exactly with the one in the page, below, but the sense is opposite!

AT Field 03/23, 7:05 ([email protected]) Gainax made a terrible work!!! It's also pathetic. I've been waiting since the summer for something like this?! Please, make it for the Golden Week.

I think Bochan_bird's translation is probably more accurate here, since why would the emailer beg Gainax to hurry when they hated it so much? --Gwern 23:58, 5 July 2011 (UTC)
