Whom ever the artist was they sure weren't thinking when they put those pics together. Trevor does not look like Trevor, but more like some fantasy warrior kid from say...Xanadu? Grant looks pretty much like he should, no problems there. Sypha appears to resemble a priest of sorts with his head covered to conceal his identity. but he's not supposed to be a man. And Alucard... Well what can I say about...her? It looks as though Sypha killed off the real Alucard and took his place. WTF?!?

The translation vibe seems to have catched on it seems. Heh.

Finding someone who is able to do this is very difficult, and finding someone who is willing to do it is even rarer. And even if you find a person who says he will do it, it remains to be seen if the translation is ever finished. I'm speaking from experience here. If you really want to get this translated, here is some advice: pay to let a professional do it for you. The major downside to this is that such services are way to overpriced. It's the best chance you got though.

Unless you are extremely lucky.

Now the story makes sense. But it not considered cannon anymore though is it. Namely on the fact that Alucard does not have a child and both Sypha and Trevor married which led to other Belmont offspring. That's not to say that Sid Belmont could not be considered cannon as there is a family gap between Trevor and Christopher. But I don't think that the character Zouk would've made it in there.
