Imperial Scans and Red Hawk Scans are dead, meanwhile Fallen

>>133690041
>reading anything by those guys
It's almost entirely battle shounen and low-quality harems. I'm sort of sad to see that /a/ cares so much.

>red hawk is dead
what?

>>133690113
But their translations were pretty good

>>133690419
That doesn't matter if they don't do good stuff.

>All things must come to an end, and this is no exception. After more than seven years of bringing you manga, the decision has been made to close Red Hawk's doors. You may have noticed that the amount of series we do has dropped significantly lately, and the reason is that most of us have just gotten too busy with real life to pick up anything new. After much consideration, we decided that with our key members having less and less time to focus on manga, the best course of action was for us all to stop while we were ahead instead of giving you something that we couldn't put our hearts into.
To all the readers and staff, thanks for following us all this time. You're the reason we do what we do.

P.S.: PRAISE THE SUN.

Well darn. That's a downer.

Oh fuck.
Where's the future of manga?

Really?

I TOLD YOU BRO
I TOLD YOU ABOUT TPP

>>133693154
If you read the article, they're going to arrest more and more of these scanalators.

>>133690552
If you don't read bad stuff you won't be well rounded. Cultivating a broad understanding of the medium is important to some people.

Also Red Hawk is a little sad, but most of the groups that did large scale releases of stuff I cared about shut down years and years ago.

>>133693213
Yes, because Chinese in Japan are obviously English scanlators.

>>133690041
i'm not the type to complain about translations, but
fallen angels translations used to be just fine.
what happend did their old translator leave or something?

>>133693338
They're still putting up raws.

>>133693373
Which would only delay speedscans, which isn't really a bad thing given that most of them are horrible.

>>133693213
Yes, the police intend to arrest more lawbreakers, what a surprise. They're also only talking about the leakers. Even if they got all of them, it would only mean you have to wait until the chapter is actually out, and that's only for the tiny handful of series that get early leaks in the first place.

>>133693213
The were arrested for distributing shit before its release. We aren't even dependent on Japanese for raws. Getting volume raws anywhere in the world is easy pie.

I don't think it would be all that bad if we went back to getting stuff after it was published anyway. People now'a'days are spoiled as hell.

>>133693303
> If you don't read bad stuff you won't be well rounded
There is no reason to go out of your way to read bad WSJ series for the sake of "understanding the medium," that's just stupid.

>>133693411
>Wanting to return to the dark ages
I bet you LIKE waiting a week and a half for subs too.

>>133693466
I remember waiting months and years for stuff. I don't really care. I normally don't have time to keep up with things as they release anyway. It's great the way it is, but I won't bat an eyelash if there's a little waiting in the future.

>>133693466
There's a difference between subbers doing shit whenever they get an opening in their busy schedule of playing MMOs, and scanlators translating a chapter after it's released.

Not only will I have to suffer mangastream's translation of Nanatsu no Taizai, but the only group that translated Gin no Saji won't even be here anymore when it comes back. Fuckin hell.

>>133692778
>to a piracy website before publication
How the fuck did chinks get it BEFORE release?

Seriously, this has nothing to do with the ez-pz wait for the weekly/monthly release and just scanning the pages.

>>133693550
Someone else will pick it up.

>How the fuck did chinks get it BEFORE release?
From blue collar workers that have access to it. Did you read the thing you are quoting?

>>133691967


So it wasn't because of the raw provider arrests?

>>133693622
They pay a guy to steal copies for them.

W-Where do I read muh Tokyo Ghoul:re now

>>133694955
mangastream picked it up. Expect it to come out on tuesdays instead of sunday now.

So Mangastream will pick up Nisekoi and Gin no Saji?

Mangastream saves manga once again.

So no more Hayate no gotoku?

>>133692778
>69 year old
Oh fuck

>>133694064
No, It certainly was because of that. They had their problems but the arrest was the final nail in the coffin.

WHERE WILL I READ NISEKOI FROM NOW?

Fuck, I was thinking of picking up hayate as well, but that's going to stop now as well.

>>133698847

In the garbage, from whence it came.

>>133698904

Read the official Viz release

http://www.vizmanga.com/sjalpha/signup

it also includes these weeklies
>Nisekoi
>World trigger
>One piece
>My hero academia
>Toriko
>Bleach
>Shokugeki no Souma
>Nigger Clover
Mothlies like
>Blue Exorcists
>Owari no Seraph

>inb4 le shit translations jizz
nope all of them on as good as the current scanslators (Expect SnS)

of course there is some retardation that comes to the naming which I hope one day will end

>>133699061
do these official versions get uploaded online, or will I actually have to pay for them? If I've got to pay then I'm finished with these manga.

>>133695042
Maybe DKThias will pick it back up as a solo project.

>>133699287
I really hope so. I'm about halfway through the anime, and even though I've been told it deviates from the manga plot it's one of the best shows in the genre.

Was thinking of picking up the manga, so I hope by the time I catch up to all 500 whatever chapters they've released another group decided to pick it up.

>>133699287
Hopefully. He still does the Tankoubon extras every now and then

>>133699267
>do these official versions get uploaded online
Rarely.

If unofficial scanlations can get taken down, then scans of official releases will get taken down at least twice as fast.

>>133699267
to actually get them you will have to pay 20 USD for a year worth of issues

I personally pay for them but I am no moral fag so there is an anon who rips them every monday when they come out

Currently it is only MHA,World trigger and SnS but you could ask him to do nisekoi as well

>>133691967
>You may have noticed that the amount of series we do has dropped significantly lately, and the reason is that most of us have just gotten too busy with real life to pick up anything new.
>pick up anything new
So what's stopping them to at least finish their current project?

>>133699644
You can clearly tell that they wrote their final words hastily, and were trying to cover something up.

When most other scanlation sites shut down, they'll put up one last message and leave everything else the way it is.

Red Hawk fucking removed everything. It's more than a simple matter of "we're too busy with real life," because most other sites just simply stop doing shit. Red Hawk clearly has something bigger to hide.

Damn, HnG got that bad huh? I stopped reading right around the time Nagi lost her mansion.

>>133700242
did it get bad or has it just been going on for too long?

>>133690041
Instead of shutting down. Couldn't they just force to wait until the official magazine are out before scanning the raws?

>>133700242
Since then, Nagi got her mansion back, and Hayate just paid off his debt.

The scanlations stopped JUST when it started to get interesting again.

>>133700339
Because that really doesn't mitigate the issue. The copyright holders still won't like that it's happening.

>>133700373
Well shit, might pick it back up again. I remember Doujin Namek threads and kept putting off.

>>133690041
I blame Daiz and ISIS.

>>133700171

does anyone have the picture in the frame saved?

>imperial scans is dead
I'd care a little if they didn't put watermarks on every fucking page. Too bad that fucking mangastream picked up tokyo ghoul. Now get to look at their irritating logo every page as well.

Vortex Scans is also either half dead/mostly dead or will fully dead soon. They haven't posted since October and their raw provider was also caught.

Minamoto-kun Monogatari hasn't been updated in more than a month.

I need my Kaoruko god damn it.

>>133700401
I thought copyright holders are only after them because they scan and upload the raw early before the official magazine release?

Let's get this out of the way. HnG is better than Nisekoi, starting from Chapter 178. Try starting from there.

needs to be updated with fans coming back now that it's getting interesting again, then with a "oh but they just dropped the series" announcement

>>133701751
Good point, ya got me there. But trust me on this. The series is one big ruse till you get to Chapter 178.

so what scans/translation groups are actually still active?

>>133703025

Minamoto-Kun release are always irregular but they got raws from the same source as Imperial Scans did with TG :re considering the two series are in the same magazine.

Also this is from what I heard and I have tried to go on their IRC to talk with them but no one is on yet. Will try at random intervals.

I upload 3 series every Monday and am occasionally inclined to throw up a download for something else by request. It depends on my mood and how I feel about the series.

For something more reliable, horriblescans (I think) uploads entire issues of viz-translated WSJ every week, so you can check that out.
