説明を入れた文章にしてみました。かなりの部分をEVEVSTARさまのTRON投稿(1262)から切り張りさせていただきました。が、繋ぎ目に自分で書いた文章とのレベルの差が際立つなあ・・・
これを、意味が通じてかつ失礼のない文章に直すのには時間が掛かりそうなので、明日ではなく、6日の夕方発送にしたいです。(4〜5日は当方の都合で印刷作業ができない)
ハーブさまのご都合はいかがですか。
それより遅くなるようなら、ゴンさまにお願いして、改善室署名に同封してもらうようにしたほうがいいでしょうか? 早く出せないのならわざわざ下手な英語を書いて別便にする意味は少ないし、嘆願書と併せて読むほうがわかりやすいから。

Dear Mr. Jackson
I am a great fan of your film "The Lord of the Rings".
My friends and I have been to protest against the terrible Japanese subtitles. Some of us sent you petitions about the subtitles in FotR with the list of "Most Serious Errors in the Translation of the Japanese Subtitles" "Examples of Remaining Mistranslation in DVD/VHS" and so on.
Now I send you materials including the official announcement on December 25th by The Japanese distributor, Nippon Herald Inc., for you to take into consideration.
If you have already received these things, forgive me to bother you.
Some of them are in Japanese. I would ask you to have someone who is good at Japanese read them.
You may hear the article of the OneRingNet titled "Japanese Translations Improving? Now in Greece…." in the news section on 12/28. In that article there is a English translation from the official announcement of Nippon Herald Inc. made by Luinneion.
But we can not trust it because there are a number of inaccuracies and serious mistranslation in it. So I send you the original Japanese one.
The official announcement, in short, says that Natsuko Toda who was responsible for the FotR subtitles will remain as the subtitler for the future installments. Nippon Herald Inc. insist that they have heard nothing from you. The credits for the TTT subtitles as a part of the "Staff & Cast" credits will be as follows: "Subtitles by Natsuko Toda, in collaboration with Akiko Tanaka (co-translator of the original books) and Hyoronsha (publisher of the books)."
They say that in the TTT international trailer, Akiko Tanaka and Hyoronsha checked the both translation of the subtitled version and the dubbed version. The interesting thing about all this is, that while the dubbed version turns out to be quite excellent, the subtitled version continues to be a problem. You can compare the two versions in the enclosure (2).
Therefor the situation on the Japanese subtitles has not substantially improved. We believe that this 'entire consultation process' is just a big smoke screen. It seems, that as long as Toda remains the main subtitler, there is nothing for the Japanese fans to rejoice about.
Sincerely yours,
