# Kojima Diary Translation

An effort to translate developer diary entries from *Metal Gear Solid 2: The Making* (2002). This repository contains:

- A **“best” final translation** (see [`best-translation.md`](best-translation.md)).
- **Raw data** (scans, transcripts, and comparisons).
- **Notes on the translation process**, including AI tools, a human-translated version, and expert review.

## Background & Translation Process

This project was started by a group of game developers curious about Hideo Kojima’s creative process during the development of *Metal Gear Solid 2*.

After discovering the scans online, we began transcribing and translating with AI tools like GPT-4 and Gemini. While the AI translations looked very convincing, they couldn’t be trusted on their own—AI often makes things up or misinterprets details. Luckily, we obtained a translation commissioned by the YouTube channel *Did You Know Gaming?*. However, this version contained noticeable errors that stood out to anyone familiar with the game’s story and development.

To get things right, we compared all versions side by side and consulted a Japanese-speaking game developer for final checks. By combining AI outputs, human input, and expert review, we’ve put together what we believe is the most accurate version of Kojima’s diary.

For transparency, we’ve included the [original scans](./data/scans/) and a [comparison spreadsheet](./data/translation-comparison.csv)—detailing the raw translations, discrepancies, and final selections—so you can explore the process yourself.
