is this the thread to get angry at scanlators because i have been angry at them a lot lately. first it was the dumb group who was doing the Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso translation being months behind the releases for no other reason than they are retarded and have like 80 continuous projects right now. im mad about the Ore Monogatari releases, but i guess Viz picked them up but still why so slow. im super mad about the Ballroom e Youkoso manga because it has like 7 volumes and as of right now there are 3 translated chapters. the group doing them is releasing 1 chapter a month. it is bullshit.

There's only like one or two chapters of Qualia of the Purple left but Dr. Amazing and the other guy that was helping him seem to have disappeared. :(

I find it hard to read books or manga on a computer screen. The only manga I've ever read was flowers of evil and the first chapter of jojo's

Sort of like how 40 chapters in the middle of Chihayafuru are missing??
Also i hate starting up something with a bunch of chapters, and then getting to the end and realizing new chapters haven't been translated since like, 2011 or something.

I'd rather read raws with separate translations these days than wait on scan groups.

The developer of Brigador is a secret chud, don't give him money
Soil was really good but I'll never get to know how it ends because the people translating it dropped it and no one else has picked it up.

But while we're complaining about translators and scans and the like, I angrily shake my fist at whatever it is that stops people from redoing awfully scanned/translated chapters of well known series.

last week was the one year anniversary of the last release of a chapter of kiichi

the loving dude translating it is in africa or some poo poo. Might as well just learn loving french and import the volumes.

Translations that are almost correct English but fail at the most inappropriate time.
