I understand only a little japanese. Is it okay if I can use the english translations so I can translate them to my mother tounge, which is Filipino. It's okay If you don't want to.

I would imagine you need to ask the translator whose work you want to use.

Yeah, I know that's why I'm asking if it's okay?

Hey AmeftoWriter,

In order to translate an English script to another international language, you actually have to ask the individual who's translation you wish to use. For instance, if you want to use MemberX's english translation of Naruto, you'd have to ask MemberX directly. Each translator has different wishes, that's why you have to ask them individually. One member may not want their translation used, while another may not have any reservations.

Hope this helps~

Amefto, it all depends on the terms you and the original translator agreed on. But it's usually polite to credit the original translation.
