Is there anything else in the vein of Ad Astra or Historie?

Hitoshi's Heureka is the only other ancient historical comic thats been translated much at all that I know.

Theres an old shoujo one volume work about Hatshepsut that I've never read though.

The last page of this chapter was loving badass. Like I swear I heard some heavy metal guitar.

I don't think the takeaway from any part of Groundless should be how badass it is.

Unironically, yes.

rello is a one person machine of a translator.

on the other hand he also doesn't need a team to do cleanup because instead of scans he can just use already clean digital releases since all the stuff he's done so far was published online.

Translations are just the words right? Because that's all I'm talking about. I read HELCK and I don't have a lot of 'Oh this could be worded better' or 'That sounds kinda off' throughout it.

Hes also doing the typesetting and stuff too, placing the script in the right bubbles and erasing japanese text that would overlap it. Some groups have that as a separate person.

Wow drat. Good thing the scans are of a high enough quality that he doesn't have to worry about that at least.

Yeah the difference to teams working from paper books is pretty big



Is what a raw page scan looks like, washed in either grey or yellow and full of small defects in the paper stock and ink printing. The amount of work scanlators go through to get clean looking white pages can be a ton and even goes down to somebody who might need to redraw parts of the lineart for clarity.

Some teams do way too much of the redrawing and post processing to get the page clean and it looks ugly though, i think. Rello doesn't have to worry about any of this.
