Michael Stanford (マイケル・スタンフォード Maikeru Sutanfodo), also known as Mastaka Toji (田路マサタカ Masataka Toji) or MSLabo102 is a ditzy strange person who has been working as a translator.
His most known works as a translator are: most of the English captions of Rei-kun videos, considerable amount of the unofficial English patch for Touhou Puppet Dance Performance: Shards of Dreams, or Japanese translation for LAME Dimension Games, such as Super Ledgehop: Double Laser or The Quarter Game.
Michael has been a fan of Touhou Project since 2009, around the release of Fairy Wars. Later he became a fan of PC-98 games, especially Mima.
His first exposure to Len'en was Brilliant Pagoda or Haze Castle, through Tabakata (or was it Sokuhou? IDK) Ren'en Senki. Ever since he have seen some bits like the basis (e.g. main casts having no set gender or being extremely inspired by Touhou) of the series, or tiny pieces of some songs, but the interest never became a full bloom, until March 2018.
Since the middle of March 2018, JynX started uploading the entire soundtrack of the series. Michael took some look at them (mostly boss themes), eventually he liked them, despite feeling something is lacking. Some of his early favorites were: Empire Power ~ Eternal Force, Necromaster or Broken Eternal Dance Engine.
