I like reading the ones you guys translate =).
I dunno, it just feels...more personal that way.
Sure there are mistakes, but they aren't getting paid to do it, and you aren't paying for their releases so it's a good day for everyone.
And I get really annoyed with TokyoPop and all those other companies that re-draw the translated sound effects in.
I just love the little notes and '*' beneath the boxes that the editors/translaters/scanners leave. =)
