What is the best way to translate a dialect or accent of the original language that is not the norm (e.g., Kansai-ben)?
Different country's English accent (e.g., Irish or Australian)
Different American regional accent (e.g., Southern)
Have the character use different slang (e.g., 'pops' instead of 'dad')
Minor speech pattern differences (e.g., dropping the 'g' in '-ing' words)
No difference in translation but have a translation note
I don't care

Shouldn't mangaupdates treat Lezhin as they do SpotToon and Line Webtoon?

They seem to releasing English translated Korean web-comics. So far 13, and possibly more, of their titles are being translated on their own site. The only differences is that for some, if not all, of their titles are different from their English-influenced English titles.

Hmm... I could easily read at least ch1 (i didn't bother with more) without needing the coins. You just close the pop-up and you're good to go, I suppose...

Quote from lambchopsil

You obviously have to pay cash for the coins from their site. They have different packages in which you can decide to buy a limited amount to a huge amount of coins.

The only thing is ... I am not sure if (or when) they permit a paid chapter to be free at a certain interval for non-coin-purchasers to view. But I am sure that their (non-adult) Korean-webtoon RAWS has a weekly/bi-weekly interval for when they change a non-free chapter to a free. So they probably do the same for the translated English versions.

Only the chapters that can be read for free will be permitted

Bringing this out of the dead.... how come new chapters available as paid content only are not freely reported on MU too? Personally, I'm actually bothered because I still remember this reply and think they're available for free.

Also, I suggest issues like this are put into FAQ or gathered in pinned topic in announcements/suggestions...?

(also this was posted under Dear Boy forum, I'll probably open similar topic under suggestions if nobody replies here.... I'm really interested how things changed now :x )

... I think I've posted too fast. Out of Control confused me because I paid for some chapters and I field to notices that few chapters in between are free. And old payable chapters (9-53) are still listed, but deleting backlog would be meaningless and to much extra work for MU staff.

Yeah, all the chapters posted on MU were free at the time of their posting
