Do you guys play Visual Novels?

I prefer VNs over manga, just because generally the longer a manga runs, the worse it gets. A VN has just as much (if not more) entertainment value, without having to watch characters I like turn into just a way to make money.
Other than that I wouldn't say there's a big ...

If another translator wants to work on it with me, and someone can get raws, I'll do some of it.
I know people just want to read and not contribute so I doubt it'll ever happen

If they send you a cease and desist, then cease and desist. If they're not online free, then buy them.

One fish has taken the bite. We could really use some translators, and typesetters. Cleaners also welcome of course.

Don't let my lack of enthusiasm scare you off. I'm sick and have a pile of manga that is seemingly never ending.
So, I need help. I'm the last one left, and things are going very slow because I'm the only one doing it.
Even if you know nothing, I'll teach you. I won't teach...

New Poll - Translation Sound Effects

I for one prefer them to be completely replaced. If I wanted Japanese in the comic, I'd read it in Japanese. None of this half-baked bbbbaka bs.
Which is why I that's how I translate most of the time.

Quote from cecropiamoth
I've noticed that manga that have even a hint of lolicon in them tend to get dropped by scanlators. My guess, though I can't prove it, is the scanlators get pressured by the Morality Police.

Not really. I probably wouldn't even read manga if it wasn't the only thing I use my Japanese for. What am I a neeeeeeeeeerd?

How to contact translators?

Finding translators is easy. You just have to find the translator den where they sleep.

Betrayal at the haunted house on the hill is kind of fun... Cards against humanity and super fight are pretty okay. I love monopoly too...
But nothing beats a game of Uno

It seems that 90% of the people don't care as long as they get to read the comic, so my guess is no one really pays attention to the name. As long as the comic looks good, does the rest even matter?

Bad Translation
(24 posts, 4411 views) Posted: over 7 years ago by Koru-tan in Manga General
Putting the whole thing through? Not good. I have heard of using it for words or sentences, which when used sparingly should turn out fine.
I think you're thinking of translators not fluent in English. At that point I think they just shouldn't touch it. I've had a couple ...

New Scanlation Group for Newbies, but I need an experienced person as a co-leader I guess, in addition older groups I can't describe it in the 125 characters, pls read
(13 posts, 1890 views) Posted: over 7 years ago by Koru-tan in Recruitment
Groups without the "application" thing accept beginners, and are the ones who are actually fun to work with. It's a good idea I guess. But I mean most groups will put the training wheels on from day one. Also, how do you train a translator

Manga about Scanlation/Scanlating process?
(5 posts, 1103 views) Posted: over 7 years ago by Koru-tan in Manga General
I don't know if that would even be very interesting. For me it'd just be sitting in front of my computer, then remembering that I forgot to do something important... like that next chapter of that manga I forgot about.
