Let's Play Shin Super Robot Wars - Update #1

Last week, after finishing my Compact 3 translation, I started posting my next project. This is Shin Super Robot Wars for the PS1.

Reminder that the LP itself will be updated every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Follow @DesRagnell on Twitter and Bsky for those updates, or you can keep an eye on the Table of Contents.

Do not use my translations for any sort of project without permission.

Table of Contents/Intro post: Here

As a reminder, I'm going to do a barebones summary as to what happened in the game to encourage y'all to read the actual posts. I put a lot of time into this line-by-line translation, you know.
