Talking about the temple, some
time ago there was a man who
kept making stupid jokes all
the time.
I haven't seen him around
recently, but I really liked
him!
Oh? Hey! You, I'm talking to
you!
What's going on. Did you move?

May & August Scripts

Yes. Some of my jokes were
a hit so I moved on! Ha, ha!

Final Script

Some of my jokes were such a hit
that I had to move on! Ha, ha!

Translation Notes
Another literally translated joke. The original line, "だじゃれがヒットシて ヒッコシたんじゃ!", plays with "hitto shite" (Were such hits) and "hikkoshita" (Moved away).

The final English line almost works as a joke, in a kind of vaudevillian way.

May & August Scripts

Get out of here.

Final Script

And that'll be happening pretty
soon here, too
.

Translation Notes
Chaz jokes back in the Japanese version with "ひっこめ" (hikkome), which about translates to the May line.

The final English script adds an appropriate retort to Raja's new line.

Chaz...


May & August Scripts

With weather like this, even we
are too afraid to go out.
Although there does seem to be
some of us who are rather
frivolous!

Final Script

With weather like this, even we
are too afraid to go out.
Although there do seem to be
some of us who are rather
frivolous!

May & August Scripts

You think you can just open
the door and walk in?
But I'll accept what you say
and let you in.
But if you've opened the door
can you close it?
It's cold outside!

Final Script

You think you can just open
the door and walk in?
Well I'll accept what you say
and let you in.
But since you've opened the
door, could you also close it?
It's cold outside!

May Script







Final Script

It's not that Dezolisians and
Parmanians don't get along...
It's just that they don't
co-exist because of their
different life styles stemming
from religious beliefs.

Translation Notes
In the May prototype, this Dezolisian's text box is broken. For what it's worth, the text that should be here is identical to the final version.

Objects

May Script

...it's written in a alphabet
I can't read.

Final Script

...it's written in an alphabet
I can't read.

May & August Scripts

Fear of Heights:
A Psychological Examination'...
Then why build a two-story
house?

Final Script

'Fear of Heights:
A Psychological Examination'...
Then why build a two-story
house?

May & August Scripts

It's a big mirror.
I guess Dezolisians are
self-conscious about their
looks?

Final Script

It's a big mirror.
I guess Dezolisians are
self-conscious about their
looks.

May & August Scripts

Here are their dishes.
They're surprisingly similar to
Parmanian's dishes.

Final Script

Here are their dishes.
They're surprisingly similar to
Parmanian dishes.

Tool Store#

May & August Scripts

Equipment Store Management'...
Ah, a pretty studious owner.

Final Script

'Equipment Store Management'...
Ah, a pretty studious owner.

Weapon and Armor Store#

May & August Scripts

The weapons in Laconia have
been purchased from Reshel.
So what we have here is all
that we have in stock.
It's first come first serve
while supplies last!

Final Script

The Laconia weapons have
been purchased from Reshel.
So what we have in stock is all
that there is.
It's first come first served
while supplies last!

After the Garuberk Tower disappears#

Exterior#

May & August Scripts

Regarding the Gumbious Temple,
is it true that it just
vanished?

Final Script

Is it true that Gumbious Temple
just vanished?

Residences#

May & August Scripts

What?
It sounds like there's some
commotion outside, but I don't
know anything.

Final Script

What?
It sounded like there was some
commotion outside, but I don't
know anything.

Translation Notes
He's talking about Gumbious Temple being obliterated, so this should be in the past tense.

May & August Scripts

I wonder if the holy flam
is safe?

Final Script

I wonder if the holy flame
is safe?

May & August Scripts

No way am I going to accept
your word!
Don't you dare open that door
and come in!

Final Script

No way am I going to accept
your apology!
Don't you dare open that door
and come in here again!

May Script




Final Script

I'm sure you won't be able to
understand the shock we
sustained!

Translation Notes
Yes, this guy's text box is still broken in the May prototype. At least they're consistent?

Temple#

May & August Scripts

Gumbious Temple?
Such a disrespectful thing
couldn't have happened.
Waaaaa

Final Script

Gumbious Temple?
Such a disrespectful thing
couldn't have happened.
Waaaaa...

Calm down!
Pull yourself together!


The Gumbious Temple has
disappeared?!
Dear me...
We must not get flustered.
It is precisely a time like
this that I must be strong and
reliable!

May & August Scripts

You're so wonderful,
Mr. Priest!

Final Script

You must be a wonderful priest.

Translation Notes
Rika almost comes off sarcastic in the final English draft.
