NNOOOO! I've been deceived! (TT_TT) I thought this was completed cause it said it was fully scanlated but it's not!
(TT_TT) And it's such a good story! Will a admin or mod please change the information to show that this is not completed?
Correct. It got ripped, not scanlated. These don´t count, they are pure theft.
A lock-down of that box wouldn´t be a bad idea...

Somehow, I had missed this reply. Sorry.
What do you mean by ripped? They took the original translated English manga and uploaded it? Is that what it means?

Yeah, that's exactly what they probably mean in this context, an official, legitimately published English language product "ripped" (either from its physical form or an online/digital one) and then passed off as though it was a fan scanlation like all the rest you'd see wherever you might happen to be reading.
You see it.......not exactly often, but definitely not some kind of isolated thing either......and certainly a lot of the aggregate online reading sites don't seem to mind featuring that sort of thing along with the fan produced scanlations.
