Hey! Sorry to bother you, but do you know where I can find a good translation of Kara no Kyoukai? I'm super interested in reading it but everything I find is... dubious at best, and I'd like to read the books and watch the anime both if at all possible.
The Kara No Kyoukai novels only have one complete translation by Cokesakto. It’s rather controversial for a variety of reasons (namely overly flowery translation, missing passages, changed lines, etc), but if you want to read KnK you don’t really have much of a choice. There’s also the Baka-Tsuki translation if you would like a more accurate one, but unfortunately, they dropped the project halfway through Paradox Spiral.
I would recommend you watch the movies first, and then read through the translation later to find out what Ufotable changed when adapting the books.
