Translator’s Forward:
The following translation is from the original Full Metal Panic! novel,
“Owaru DEE-BAI-DEE” (pt. 1). This is not the first volume of the series; this
is volume eight, and this story picks up where the first Full Metal Panic! anime
series (sometimes known as season one) left off. I did this because I
personally wanted to know what happened after the end of the anime series, and
the only continuation available was in novel form. After I started reading it a
little, I decided that I wanted to undertake it as a translation project, not
only for my better understanding, but also to share it with others who have an
interest in the series and would also like to know what happened after Sousuke
and Kaname’s fishing trip.
As suggested by the title, this book is part one of two, both books being
a little over 200 pages a piece. If you couldn’t tell, this is a massive amount
of work to do (especially in one’s spare time), so I hope everyone is a little
patient for new translations. Also, because this is a novel, and not manga, it
was necessary to be somewhat liberal in my translation. I have tried to keep as
close to the original meaning as much as possible, but I did have to make it
readable in English. Also, this series uses a lot of foreign words in names of
places, people, and weapons, and while I have done my best to research to assure
the correct spellings, there may be some mistakes. If there are, please contact
me so that I may correct them in the future.
As the translator, I am fully aware that the author retains all rights and
privileges to his original work, including translations, and I do not take any
credit for its creation, nor do I profit from it. However, as translating is
such a delicate art, especially books, I will not allow retranslations of this
translation into other languages, nor allow people to change this translation
and distribute it.
Anyway, legal stuff out of the way, enjoy!
