Playing Live Emotion on Non-Japanese Device Guide
To avoid disappointment, please prepare yourself that an English language release for Live Emotion may not be likely. At least not simultaneously with the Japanese release.
However, depending on your device you should still be able to play and support the Japanese version when it releases even if you do not live in Japan.

These methods may be outdated. If so I’ll look into it more and may repost a new guide in the future.

Translating the game in real time in-app on Android devices: Comic Screen Translate - Nice UI, less ads. Has extra premium options that seem handy. Instant Translate On Screen - Nice UI, slightly more ads than Comic Screen Translate. Perhaps slightly slower but has a few extra nice features. Also has more convenient premium options. EZ Screen Translator - Has more invasive ads and less pleasing UI, but is pretty quick. Qooapp - Has a live translation feature, but it is paid (but not too expensive) and potentially slower than other options. I believe it has a feature that will read out the in-game text out loud. Translating the game in real time in-app on iOS devices: I'm unsure of similar app options for iOS.
I believe if you take a screenshot you may get a 'Translate' option in the bottom left without having to go to your gallery. This will still be a bit slow, and will leave your gallery full of heaps of screenshots.
The Google Translate app also works, but is slow since you have to take screenshots in-game, open the translate app, and do them one by one. It does have a 'Tap to Translate' option, but it requires text to be copy pasted which isn't possible in this situation.

These methods aren't perfect, but they will help you navigate playing the game and understanding the stories if you don't speak Japanese. Let me know if you know other live translation apps or DL methods and I'll add them to the list.
