People that have contributed at least a few things to the GG archives in some way or another.

In alphabetical order. Give me a poke if you're not on here and you feel you should be. A lot of people have contributed to this and I know I'm forgetting some.

Livio Alberto Nava (Aegis High)

Notable projects: Many Spanish translations, webmaster of the Mexico-based Ride The Lightning fansite.

Referred to as just "Aegis High" on here, but sometimes with his real name on the documents themselves.

Blade (or Blade Highwind or Gear Project)

Notable projects: The first Night of Knives translation, assistance/proofreading on old documents, misinformation.

I was hesitant to include Blade here but he is, despite it all, a name you will see often. Collaborated on older stuff with both Ed Chang and later with Volcanic Fighter. Known for inserting weird headcanons or personal agendas into works, transphobia, homophobia, comparing Venom (and other people of color) to cheese (?), and arguing that Nagoriyuki isn't black. Just avoid him.

Bocchi the Rock FGC

Notable projects: Scans of rare Dengeki PlayStation issues and other rare books, like the Terminological Concentration.
Socials: Bluesky - Tiktok - Tumblr

CryptideTR

Notable projects: Video media preservation (DVDs, VHS), the Guilty Gear Wiki, the Wiki's socials.
Socials: Neocities (personal) - Neocities (wiki) - Tumblr

Edward Chang (or just Ed Chang)

Notable projects: GGX and GGXX Drama CD translations, many of the first fan-made lore documents.

One of the first, and most prolific, JP>EN translators in the GG community, as well as a popular GameFAQs author for the old GG games. Used to have a personal website that hosted his works but it only survives on Wayback Machine now. A name you will see often in old archived works.

Justice Revival Project (aka Longshotte)

Notable projects: Guilty Gear Xtra
Socials: Twitter - Mangadex

Formed solely to translate the GG Xtra manga.

Kaialone

Notable projects: Translator of the short stories in the Official GG Anthology (GGST), Lightning the Argent, and many other things.
Socials: Bluesky - Tumblr

Just in case. Separate archive for just stuff I've done over on this page

Tillman

Notable projects: Vastedge XT asset rips, several manga and guidebook scans, the Guilty Gear Wiki, Millia Rage.

Volcanic Fighter (aka Nincopyjasb)

Notable projects: Spanish translations, collecting and maintaining a significant portion of what would become these archives.
Socials:Twitter - Youtube

We owe a lot to Volcanic for how many files here would be lost without him. A name you'll see often.

Things that aren't really books but aren't really translations either. Loose art pages or leaked model sheets. Weird stuff.

Channel 3 Records Guilty Gear: Missing Link Vinyl Art and Interview Book

Raws: Sol Radguy
Translation: Official/in-house localization
Scan quality: Good
Host: Archive.org

A 2LP that came with a short booklet containing some ML era GG art and a brief interview with Daisuke himself. The music was not ripped from the records, this is just the book.

A.B.A. Design Documents

Raws: famiccha
Scan quality: Good
Host: Archive.org

Original analog sketches used for A.B.A.'s design and for the design of her moveset.

Vastedge Design Documents/Concept Art

Raws: Tillman
Scan quality: Good
Host: Archive.org

43 pages of what seem to be printouts of scans of official design documents for the Vastedge dev team.

Asura System Guilty Gear Trading Cards

Raws: lesbiangiratina
Scan quality: Good
Host: Google Drive

Link also has scans of cards from the Guilty Gear Hybrid Card Collection (Broccoli TCG). Cards are in Japanese. These scans are also uploaded to the Guilty Gear Wiki: Asura System - Broccoli TCG

Various Guilty Gear DVD covers and booklets

Raws: CryptideTR
Scan quality: Good
Host: Archive.org

Exactly what it sounds like. The upload will update whenever Cryptide does new scans, so check back with it once in a while.

Guilty Gear Sound Complete Box sheet music

Raws: Unknown
Scan quality: Good
Host: Google Drive

This big special edition boxset release of Guilty Gear soundtracks from Missing Link to GGXX Slash came with the sheet music for 8 different songs: Noontide, Keep Yourself Alive, Suck A Sage, Liquor Bar & Drunkard, Nothing Out Of The Ordinary, Fuuga, Holy Orders, and Kagematsuri.

Things we don't have scans, rips, or whatever of.

Manga

These are missing raw (ie., in their original Japanese) manga scans, not translations.

Guilty Gear X Plus Comic Anthology (DNA Media Comics)
Guilty Gear XX (Ohzora Comics)
Guilty Gear XX Slash Comic Anthology (DNA Media Comics)

Guidebooks/Encyclopedias

It's difficult finding information about the guides/encyclopedias. Drop me a message if you find one that's not listed.

Guilty Gear X Official Guide - Dreamcast-specific guide
Guilty Gear X Plus Official Guide
Guilty Gear XX Complete Guide - (I have this one, just need to get off my ass and scan it)
Guilty Gear XX ♯Reload Complete Guide - (also have this one)
Guilty Gear XX Slash Complete Guide
Guilty Gear XX Λ Core Break Encyclopedia
Guilty Gear XX Λ Core Complete Guide
Guilty Gear Isuka Technical Guide
Guilty Gear 2 -Overture- Complete Guide

Video media

Huge mystery just how many of these there are. Keep your eyes peeled over on cryptidetr's Neocities in case I forget to update here.

Guilty Gear XX EMBLEM - VHS - Published by FANTASY MAX in 2002. Cover has May and Bridget on it. May be unofficial? Only listing found so far was posted for us$700...

Miscellaneous missing things

The EU special edition release of GG Accent Core Plus. Came with either the 10th Memorial Book (in Japanese) OR a book called The Lost Archive. There isn't any art in The Lost Archive that wasn't reprinted elsewhere, so getting scans of it is mostly for completionists' sakes more than anything else. These were limited to 200 copies (100 each) and are very expensive (>us$450). Don't bankrupt yourself for this thing.
Arc System Works 25th Anniversary Memorial Booklet - A Japan-exclusive limited-edition artbook that was available at the Arc System Works Festival 2013 to commemorate the company's twenty-fifth anniversary.
Guilty Gear 2 Overture Secret Gig & Secret Gig Neo - Two different booklets. Neo was given out at Tokyo Game Show (2006?) and they both have some Overture art in them that wasn't included in the GG2Overture Material Collection art book, mostly of Valentine and Chimaki. Neo has art by guest artists, including a Valentine body pillow... Neo also seems to be the rarer of the two, but both are pretty hard to find. The standard Secret Gig book appears to have been an Aksys USA online store exclusive.
Guilty Gear Backyard Rev 2 - Rev2 era book from Comiket 97. The cover says it's just frame data, but it may have more in it besides that.
This mystery fanbook - Has concept art sketches in it that (seemingly) haven't been published anywhere else. Appears to be from the early GGXX era. Might be a fanbook?
Guilty Gear X Beat In End Combo Collection - Combination Analysis - Approx. 84 page book that may or may not have come bundled with the VHS tape of the same name. Seems to have been just dry technical data, combo lists, and things like that. Not extremely vital to get scanned, but could be interesting.
