Well I just remembered that when Asia ships things, they put the zipcode at the top. So I put 0000000 for my zip and included my actual one in the address bit so if they ever ship anything there shouldn't be confusion.

 

Though I accidentally selected The Possible!!! and whilst I do love those girls, even ignoring all the work upupgirls have done, they still have Mori Saki. I definitely love upup more >< (also possible lost Kaepyon long ago who was my original oshi there...)

SO I sent an email(I looked up how to address emails in a professional/polite way) asking to change it >.> I'm worried if they saw 2 identical ones they might delete them both or something thinking I'm trying to cheat something.

I just received 4 emails! But I'm having a bit of trouble translating

 

The last one has a group picture in it, and the first 3 contain messages from each of the members.

 

...naturally, reading 13 messages in a language I only kinda know is... difficult. lol So maybe if anyone can help translate them...? That would be awesome.

[Juriken'14(狩)]

yeah, better add the contact into the address book

 

don't want it got flag as spam lol

 

I really like they separate them into 3+1 emails, it's more organized that way

 

 

 

man the messages are long lol (not complaining, I'm praising )

 

hope some translation groups/site will pick this up

[zam（仮）]

I got the emails too. They call it their Mail Magazine ( MeruMaga ).
I hope someone with better understanding of Japanese can help translate it.

The group pic is a nice bonus. I didn't expect them sending us pics *happi*

Yeah~ thats pretty nice.

I made a filter in Gmail to send the stuff from their email address straight to the top of my inbox, tag is with "Team Makenki (仮)" with yellow background (because oshi bias duhhh) and mark as important, and never send to spam.

 

I was thinking, if someone can translate the things the girls send us, I can set up a site to put it on, dedicated strictly to this, so it's easy for fans to find translation.

[zam（仮）]

^You may try asking someone from BlogProject to help

[Xīn Chūn (仮)]

I could do that... But they don't seem to have any people interested in any members... The last of Kikka's posts they translated is from June 2013, and the last of Akari's posts is from June 2011. As far as I can tell, there are no other members who have ever had their posts translated by them...

 

I'd rather have an actual fan help out, if at all possible. Though if there isn't anyone who can help, I may go ask

 

Though actually, if I can't find anyone, I may at least try to translate it myself (and maybe just ask for tips on things I don't really get)... I'm fairly decent at translating spoken Japanese, but written is harder because I don't really know the kanji. But if I throw that into a translator then just maybe I can do it... Still not sure though. It probably would be best if there's a bilingual fan of these girls who can help out. I'll probably ask around the Facebook communities I'm in too, if nobody around here is able.

[Blu-Cherri]

Sounds like my level is about the same as yours. If I wasn't in my final year of uni I would offer to help out v.v

[hancunningham]

sucks about the translation issue but we have to live with it =(

seriously this group is the best thing upfront has created outside of hello project.

lets hope they get a major debut

 

just registered and i'm number 1282 lol i suck

[zam（仮）]

^Thanks! now we know how many have registered for the mail circle.

Been thinking some more, I might try to build a website and then upload it, at least I can start with basic profiles of members and try to keep it updated with the official site/blog profile pictures. Probably the same ones in the first post (unless they are updated of course). After looking around, there is a lot of places mentioning the formation of the group and listing members, but I think it'd be really nice to have a place that goes more in depth with the collaboration, the individual acts, and the individual members and their track records. I'm starting to get better at building websites so maybe I can pull it off. A lot of people seem to know of this, but not know much about it.
