The Idolm@ster SP: Perfect Sun English translation
アイドルマスターSP パーフェクトサン · Aidoru Masutā SP Pāfekuto San
BonillaP's English Translation Plus patch for Idolm@ster SP: Perfect Sun, which completes the old fan translation of the menus and script and adds translated e-mails and DLC text.
What's translated
This patch picks up the English fan translation that a volunteer team produced for the three Idolm@ster SP games between 2009 and 2014, and carries it much further. BonillaP translated the routes that had been left unfinished (including Ritsuko's route on this disc), the user interface, secondary modes such as Office Mode and Free Produce, and pop-up warnings, along with many in-game images.
What's new
- The e-mails your idols, reporters, stylists and fans send you are now in English, including the DLC mails.
- Descriptions of DLC songs, costumes and accessories are translated, and DLC content is supported because the patch sits on top of the Download Plus data.
- Lyrics and rival unit names are translated, and many dialogue overflows and broken lines from the earlier patches are fixed.
All of the DLC e-mails from Perfect Sun were finished in version 1.0a; version 1.1 (May 2026) completes the rest and polishes dialogue; an October 2026 hotfix only shrinks the download. The Idol Drama DLC episodes are still untranslated.
Playing it
The patch is applied to your own copy of the Japanese game following the instructions on the project's site, which also covers the two sister games, Wandering Star and Missing Moon. Credit goes to BonillaP and Soutaisei for the new translations, and to the original TLWiki team whose work it builds on.
