*** Violinist of Hameln Translation : Volume 13, movement 52 ***************************************************** By:Watanabe Michiaki Published by: Gan Gan Comics, Enix English Translation: DASON (dason54@singnet.com.sg) 2000 Some additional editing by Ashley Auld (Soujiro_no_Miko@hotmail.com) --------------------------------------------------------------------------- *editors note* This translation is taking from the Chinese version of the Violinist of Hameln manga. Some translation may be *slightly* off by way of the Japanese manga, as some things in Japanese don't translate well to Chinese and therefore to english. But you'll get the general idea of things. I've tried to keep names and everything in continuity with the rest of the translations. I'd like to extend my warmest thank you's to Dason for helping on this project! Great work!
