As I'm not sure this one's gonna be localized, I'll just wait some more. If there still are no news of this being released outside Japan by the end of the summer I'll start a full translation project, provided there's interest and translators to help me out.
I'm a little busy studying right now so this will have to wait some more.[/p]

Partially, some new things were added though.
Crap, I wish I could do something to help, this is a great initiative.
EDIT:The kanji in line 16 before the obvious "recovery" part turned out to mean abnormal/abnormality, ingame this would probably be"status effect recovery." I added it, feel free to delete if it's wrong.
EDIT2: Tranlsated some obvious song names.

there had been a lot of changes on the menu... most of which is that they made categories for the items. there is also a feature which you have a list of predefined sequence for a characters skill which you can still change.

Yes, I was thinking about asking you through PM if you're going to translate this game

It probably will be localized seeing as this is the sequel and all. The problem is when. I surely don't want to wait a whole year for the localized version

Added:

♪鋼鉄の孤狼 = Kotetsu no Beowulf
♪極めて近く、限りなく遠い世界に = So Close, Yet so Far (Atlus translation)
 
You know, it probably is, it's just been awhile since I've seen the song title because I've always remembered it as Kotetsu no Beowulf, before the title was translated.

It's easier than remembering "Kiwamete chikaku, kagiri naku tooi sekai ni" instead of So Close Yet so Far.
 
I love this game! it may be too much but can you translate the script/storyline as well (and ill help you translate if i can learn from you and DarthNemesis and become youre pupil)

Here is how I would translate it:
In the nation of "Namikuni," a land torn by war, there is a warrior who has known strife since he was a child. A martial arts expert who mastered the "Kishin Fist" and "Hakuou Fist" techniques at the young age of 17, he is known by another name, "Gouren no Alady." His arm and leg armor are known as "Kouma." He has an intense personality, and he tends to see everything as an opportunity to forge himself through extreme training.
It's really hard to translate some of the words directly because they aren't even real Japanese words. So it would probably be better to just keep some of the words in their original Japanese pronunciation, or take some liberties with the translation of the words below. I've included their literal meanings, which sound clunky and awkward in English:


?? (Namikuni) - lit. "wave country"
??? (Kishin Ken) - lit. "chance god fist"
??? (Hakuou Ken) - lit. "champion emperor fist"
?? (Gouren) - lit. "tempered" (hardened)
???? (Alady) - No meaning, just a name
?? (Kouma) - lit. "roaring demon"

The best thing to do would be to try to cross-reference with the original Mugen no Frontier and see what they're called in the official English localization. If you don't know, then I would suggest just keeping the Japanese pronunciation transliterated into Roomaji unless there's a dictionary or wiki of some sort that contains all of the words above and their official English meanings. All of the difficult-to-translate Japanese words will almost certainly be proper nouns.

*EDIT*
Fixed my translation a little bit.
