Translation of Educational Video Subtitles for Epic's Unreal Engine
In the dynamic realm of game development, Unreal Engine stands as a cornerstone, offering a treasure trove of educational content to guide developers in mastering the engine's capabilities. I took on the task of translating a substantial number of subtitles for these educational videos, with a particular emphasis on the "Inside Unreal" series, which provides a deep dive into the various facets of the Unreal Engine.
A central challenge of this project was not just translating words, but capturing the nuances of colloquial English used in the videos. The casual tone, often peppered with idiomatic expressions and industry-specific jargon, required a delicate balance to ensure that the informal essence was retained in Japanese while upholding technical precision. It wasn't merely about translating content; it was about conveying the spirit of the original English dialogue, making it relatable and comprehensible to Japanese developers without compromising on technical accuracy.
Through my dedicated efforts, Japanese developers can now engage with Unreal Engine's educational content in a manner that feels both familiar and technically sound, enabling them to harness the engine's full potential with clarity and confidence.

Translation of Technical Documents for Sony's Playstation Series
In the intricate world of video game development, precision and clarity are paramount, especially when it comes to technical documentation. I had the honor of translating a series of highly technical reference documents tailored for programmers developing games for Sony's renowned Playstation series.
This project was not just about linguistic translation; it required a deep understanding of the C++ programming language and the nuances of game development. As a proficient C++ programmer myself, I was uniquely positioned to ensure that the translations were not only technically accurate but also readable and intuitive for fellow developers.
The documents covered a wide range of topics, from core engine functionalities and graphics rendering to gameplay mechanics and optimization techniques. My primary goal was to bridge the linguistic gap while preserving the technical integrity of the content, ensuring that Japanese developers could seamlessly integrate the knowledge into their game development processes.
It's worth noting that the Translation Volume indicated in the left column of this website does not accurately reflect the extensive scope of this project. In reality, the total word count exceeds 1M (1,000,000) words. This significant undertaking is a testament to my long-time collaboration with a cherished client, and together, we've worked to uphold Sony's legacy in the gaming industry.

Translation of "The Dark Net: Inside the Digital Underworld" by Jamie Bartlett
Embark on a journey through the hidden layers of the digital realm with my translation of Jamie Bartlett's acclaimed work, "The Dark Net." This book delves deep into the concealed network of sites, communities, and cultures that exist beyond the familiar confines of mainstream internet platforms. Bartlett's narrative, vividly brought to life in my translation, guides readers through the enigmatic worlds of Bitcoin, 4chan, Silk Road, and more, shedding light on tales of radicalism, crime, and underground subcultures.
One of the unique challenges I faced in translating this work was the adaptation of English internet slang, which often doesn't find its way into conventional dictionaries, into its Japanese counterparts. I took special care to ensure that the essence of these slang terms was not lost, but rather resonated with the nuances and cultural context of Japanese internet slang. This meticulous approach aimed to provide Japanese readers with an authentic and relatable experience, bridging the cultural and linguistic gaps between the two languages.
Through my translation, I hope to offer readers a nuanced and culturally relevant perspective on the digital underworld, capturing the complexities of the internet and the myriad ways it shapes human behavior and interactions.
