I finally finished translating these pages and posted them. All of SuzuKen's comments about Jack are so good... You can tell he really understands him. Er, well, he understands that he's a character who's somewhat impossible to understand. lol
Like, I love this answer in particular.
So true, SuzuKen...
(edit) Someone from the Type-0 chat helpfully showed me that someone else already translated Ace's pages from the same book. Kaji Yuuki (his VA) has some interesting things to say about Ace.
It's interesting that he mentions this because it's the same feeling I get from Ventus. Like, it's in the way that Ventus has become entangled with everyone, but he has this especially deep connection to Strelitzia, Lauriam, and Elrena now.
It also makes me think about how Marluxia and Larxene weren't part of the original research team from Radiant Garden, so it makes them seem like outsides compared to everyone else in Organization XIII. (Demyx and Luxord also feel like outsiders, but it's like they're in their own category. lol)
I don't think I ever pointed this out, but. There are 14 members of Organization XIII and 14 members of Class Zero. So Marluxia and Larxene feel like they occupy the same amount of "space" as Machina and Rem. I think this must've been a coincidence, but then Nomura probably just used it to his advantage. lol Then again, I found out that the concept of the Fabula Nova Crystallis series was born around the same time as KH1, so I don't know what to think anymore... Maybe nothing is a coincidence and everything is intentional. (Unlikely. But who knows.)
