Anonymous writes: In possibly the quickest conceived and executed merger of all time, we’re excited to announce that Binktopia and MangaShare will be joining forces to provide you with weekly manga scanlations. The new group’s name will remain Binktopia, and all new releases will continue to be done from MangaShare.com
Naruto, Bleach, D.Gray-man, and One Piece will continue to be released on MangaShare, but with Binktopia’s lineup, we’ll see several other series (in no particular order) like Psyren, Fairy Tail, Eyeshield 21, Katekyo Hitman Reborn, Gantz, Claymore, Berserk and Gintama.
This deal made a lot of sense for both parties, so it happened.

Having both groups releasing the same chapters every week was kind of redundent. Now they can use their resources more efficiently.

pretty much
with any luck if they get supreme efficiency together, it may become a trend with other groups?

Wow, this is a surprise. As was said, assuming the groups merge smoothly, their combined effort should really help out the scanlation of these shounen manga. Yeah, I totally didn't see this coming. Seems like the future is bright for shounen scanlation.

It only affects a small, VERY small portion of the shounen scan community. Besides, people will continue to put out their own versions of things, and new groups will pop up to release things they think should be done differently.
It really doesn't matter. Nothing changes.

I hope they won't do the crappy flash scanlations, I hate those.

so they are going to pick up the heavy series aswell.... only thing that buggs me a little is what quality they can present Berserk and Gantz in... along with Claymore... since those series are just the thing i need every month. so if they do a good job then alright
tho. being the HQ fanatic that i am.. i will continue to get them from Evil Genius Ect. ect. when they are out in HQ.
to the new merged grupe good luck
