Me and my friend wants to start translating/cleaning/releasing a manga, for experience purposes only. Problem is, we dont know which series we should do. Can anyone give us suggestions on a series that no one is doing right now? (or is on hold?) Interesting series only!

Edit!

To specify the kinds of genres we are willing to do:
No Yuri/Yaoi or shounen-ai/shoujo-ai.
Art has to be decent, nothing funky like in some gag mangas.
We prefer Comedies, so thats definitly a decision making genre.
Romance comedies is preferred as well. Nothing too extreme in the ecchi department, but we're not dismissing genres like harem/mature/ecchi, as long as the "content" is not on every other page. No sports mangas (like mangas concentrated on a sport only, but stuff like Suzuka or Open Sesame, where the sport is a side thing, is fine)
Other genres like adventure, action, drama, Gender Bender, Horror, etc are fine, but as I said, comedy is essential (and romance comedies is a plus).

Genre?

I would be really happy if someone would scanlate the last series of Milk Crown Lovers since it's 3 years that it's stalled. But I don't think it could be very interesting, but at least you can read its prequels to have an idea ^^

Ok, the 29 pages worth of suggestions have some flaws in them, and I realized that I should have made myself more clear. The 29 pages is too broad, and some of the mangas on that topic has already been picked up, or invalid because its not that the scanlators have stopped on a certain series, they are just slowly releasing them. I will discuss with my friend on narrowing down the genre. We both like comedies, I can tell you that. We have already begun making a list of mangas we might do, in the end it all depends if we can find the raws or not.

Original post was broad so I presumed you would take most genres. So yeah, you should probably specify what you're willing to take.

And considering that thread is almost 3 years old, I suggest just checking the last few pages.
