What Field You Would Like To Be Positioned In: Proofreader
Why You Want This Position: Mainly because I love reading manga! I'm really grateful for scanlation teams, since they allow us to enjoy manga without having to learn Japanese. Lately I've been seeing grammatical errors when I'm reading manga, so I want to join this team and do my best in proofreading. Plus, I always see to it that I correct every error that I can see. :)
Your Time Available: Weekdays 6pm-10pm, Weekends 8am-10pm
Experience: None, but I have good grades in English and I am confident in my skills in English.

Preliminary Test:

p.118
Niko: No cage exists in Polaris!

text: In fact, the story of Polaris is about how "the prince and the princess of the Ursa Minor accepted the arranged marriage and lived happily ever after" and that's all.

text: Yes. What intervened in this story was my "imagnation".
Fran: ...The conclusion ought to be the same.
Sfx:* Rustling*

text: However, it's you who’s being deceptive too. You're talking about your "imagination" since you too have your favorable storyline of "She chose on her own to stay by her love.”

p.119
Niko: You’re a liar!
text: Aah, why is this child looking straight at me with those eyes?
 
Niko: You deceived me! / You're awful!
text: As if I'm wrong.
Sfx: *Breathe in*

Fran: Yes.

Fran: Maybe it's a lie. // I thought it would be nice if it was.

p.120
text: However, I didn't deceive you. That is to say, those were stories that were told for entertainment purposes...
text: The truth of fiction is almost helpless before "imagination". As for this world, everything is about facts based on evidence.
Fran: It doesn't matter whether it's the truth or not, since it’s you who decides if my story is true. / Just accept it if it was interesting.
text: Well, without evidence, even history and fact could become fiction. / I'm only saying that it’d be more fun if there’s room for intervention.
p.121
Fran: That's also why listeners decide on what truth their own hearts want.
text: "Cage of Polaris" / This cage is made up of thought known as "me". That would also be the truth for people who feel happy being locked in a cage.
Fran: You too.

p.122
Fran: Don't you think that freedom of speech and pleasantness lie in there?
Niko: ...

Niko: I don't understand that complex stuff, but... / I understand one thing!
Fran: What is it?

Niko: That you're a pervert!
Sfx: *Smile*
Fran: Yes, that's correct. I'm glad that you got it right.

p.123
Fran: --Aah, it's around time for me to go; otherwise it’ll be too dark.
Niko: ...
