Scanlation Thread

If I get a smaller laptop than the one I have now, how much will I regret not having the extra space while editing?

>>145790587
Get a external monitor? I have my laptop plugged to a larger screen when at home.

>>145791044
No, I haven't. My current one is 15 inches, I'm thinking of getting a 13 for portability but I'm really used to having the extra screen space.
If I get an external then people will be able to see what I'm doing.

>>145790587
Not much, in my experience. I think it's easy to adapt. I have trouble typing on tiny keyboards though, so I have to bring my mech for that.

>>145790384
bump for interest

I'm looking for a manga to translate. SoL RomCom is what I've mostly done, but I'm trying to get into more mature manga.

I have a soft spot for historical things like Otoyomegatari, Emma, Gisele Alain, and Vinland Saga, but it's been a challenge finding something worth translating.

It doesn't have to be a more mature manga, btw. Any suggestions greatly appreciated all the same. (Checked OP's link already btw)

>>145792266
How about Aku no Kyouten? I think the old group dropped it.

>>145792266
Kind of a long shot, but maybe Ryuma no Gagou? It jumps around through a lot of time periods, so not really "historical" but there's a lot of historical variety.
I've heard the author's things can be a bitch to translate though, supposedly he makes up his own kanji sometimes.

Is it normal to lose sharpness after straightening an image?

I recently just realized this was happening, not sure if it already happened with my past edits. Now I'm kind of thinking not to straighten less obvious crooked pages so they won't lose quality.

>>145792530
Yes, if you're doing things at a low resolution it's much more obvious. You can just sharpen it a bit to make up for it, but the difference shouldn't even be noticeable once it's cleaned.

Decided to translate all of the Horimiya volume extras v2-9. Might take a while translation to edit to release since I'm doing it in tandem with everything else I have.

How the fuck do I get gold labels in はるか? Just put 自炊 in the description and hope a mod sees it?

Also is there a new popular manga download site yet? I'm doing something but we're not an actual group so I can only upload to online readers. I'd like to have download links too somewhere.

>>145793814
Use the goddess.

>>145792594
So basically there's no working around this? Sharpening it usually makes cleaning harder so I don't think that will be an efficient solution.

>>145794143
But casuals can't access it. I was looking for something more mainstream.

>>145794164
Rotating is a destructive action, so the only way around it would be to scan it straight in the first place. I've never had it be a noticable issue at all though, maybe your scans aren't at a high enough resolution?

>>145794273
It really is mainstream at this point, sadly.

>>145793814
Just put a site. What does it matter if it's not an actual group.

>>145794856
Stop fucking posting this in every thread you go to, you dumb tripfag. It's garbage, anyway.

>tfw the series you're doing gets licensed
Is dropping it the right and moral thing to do?

>>145796565
Yes, but you'll still have most of the internet bitching about it. I just don't see the point in wasting my time if something I do gets licensed, it'll have a translation if I do literally nothing so why bother?

>>145796623
Well if you like the series you'll still be months ahead of the licensee and so still have all the readers.

>>145796890
It's really not worth the effort in my opinion. If other people don't want to pay for an official translation, that's not my problem.

>>145797106
Well from a moral perspective I suppose you're right. Guess I'll drop it then and endure the wave of analpain since the series is quite popular.

>>145797215
Well, to be perfectly honest, me being lazy is more of the reason than morals, although it does free up time to work on other series.
Which one is it you're dropping?

>>145797368
Lewd maou dungeon building adventures, first licensed volume is going to drop fairly soon.

Might just do one more chapter to announce the dropping though.

>>145797529
Oh, that? You could probably keep doing it if you really wanted to, 7Cs doesn't really send out DMCAs from what I've heard.

>>145796565
Not sure what kind of licensing companies you're dealing with, but the one's I've seen are shit, so no. They jump on the popularity created by scanlators, then harass them into dropping and deleting everything from day one, and then they take months to release anything at all and years to catch up.

Most of the time somebody's going to try and continue, and it's always shitty half assed groups that pull out terrible releases. Might as well just continue what you started.

Often licenses only do damage too. They wipe off whatever fanbase the author had overseas with the slow and hard to acquire releases so their popularity dies. Groups become hesitant about picking up other series from the same author as well. I've seen so many nice authors go by noticed because their first introduction into the west was a digital license. Nobody knows who they are so they don't bother buying it.

The only time I've ever seen a license do good, or rather not do any damage, was when the author/series was extremely popular in the first place. So popular that not even a license can stop scanlators from working, so nothing changes.

I hate licensing companies.

>>145797620
Yeah they don't, they in fact said so directly to me on plebbit, but the duplicated effort and moral ambiguity is still there. This way I'll have more time for my nukige TL dreams too.

>>145797632
Having a western fanbase that does fuckall to support the series isn't "doing good," selling copies is. Literally the only way a license could "do damage" to a series is if it's somehow so disastrous it damages the author's reputation back in Japan and cuts sales there.

>>145797774
This. The typical fan isn't going to import jap raws so as far as the mangaka is concerned, they're getting zero bucks out of it while official releases at least put back a couple of bucks back.

>>145797668
I've had a few series get picked up by Vertical and dropped those, and Yen Press picked up two I worked on but both of those were long after I finished/dropped them. I'm not sure if they'd have gone after me if I kept doing any of them, but figured it wasn't worth the risk.

>>145797774
I'm not talking about the author, I'm talking about the readers and fans. They're the ones who get fucked thanks to the license when a series and author they liked disappears.

>>145797632

The raws for Maou go online >for free anyway though so acquiring raws consists of putting the niconico link into OMD. Also Seven Seas don't seem to DMCA and seem almost like nice people from what little interaction I had with them which increased the guilt.

>Might as well just continue what you started.

Yeah, but the mango just reached the end of the first LN so thought it'd be about a good place to drop it if I would and let the licensee do the rest.

>>145797915
>I'm not talking about the author, I'm talking about the readers and fans
Okay, I misunderstood what you said before, but that just makes it matter even less. If a reader doesn't want to fork over some cash to get an official product and support the author, then literally no one, not the author or the licensing company, gives a shit about them.

>>145797915
Yes, and?

>>145797915
They're the ones who are getting it for free anyway. It's not like their obliged to getting it in the first place. Claiming that they get fucked sounds entitled as fuck.

>>145797982
Nobody wants to fork out cash, not even me. I buy shit because I like it, not because I want to feel good about supporting the author.
Readers read things because they like it, if it stops being free most stop reading.
My point isn't to create a paying fanabse for the author, it's to share something that I think is cool with other people and generate discussion. Author getting money from them is just a plus.

>>145798070
I guess I'm talking more from a scanlator point of view. It just bothers me to see a fanbase for something nice die out.

>>145798237
Nice feelings don't bring meals to the table. If you really care about the works, you need to be able to put your money where your mouth is since by the end of the day, it's what supports the artists. It's not even about feeling good; there's a very pragmatic reasoning behind it - if the artist can make a living out of it, they're more likely to be able to continue putting out more works for the fans.

>>145798508
Sales from licenses are tiny and irrelevant. What's giving the author money, popularity, and more work are domestic sales. Gaijins don't affect their future.
But then again I'm talking about niche BL licenses, I don't know if popular licenses like things from jump have any effect. But those keep getting scanlated anyway so it doesn't matter.

>>145798926
>Sales from licenses are tiny and irrelevant
And your source is? They're obviously profitable enough to convince the Japanese publishers that they're worthwhile business strategies.

>>145798926
Tiny amount of money is still better than no money.

>Gaijins don't affect their future.
Which once again leads back to the point that it sounds entitled as fuck for fans getting shit for free to claim that they're getting fucked because of official releases.

Anybody knows how to flatten the paper texture like pic related?
(From the left pic to the right pic)

>>145798992
But it's obvious. That's why they only jump on popular titles and don't do physical prints except for rare occasions when there's lots of demand. I've seen them complain about money issues before too. Everybody knows BL licenses are hit or miss, and it usually ends in miss.

>>145799027
That tiny amount isn't their main source of income and isn't expanding their career so the argument doesn't hold up.
It's me who's claiming that, not the fans. Fans just deal with it.

>>145799265

>>145799265
Looks like it was just Topaz'd with clone tool for the crinkles.

>>145799313
>Fans just deal with it.
As they should. So again, 'them getting fucked' means fucking nothing.

Complaining about official releases is stupid.
Deal with that too.

>>145793814
Put 初出 and 自炊 in the description you will upload then left message 初出 and URL in the here(http://haruka-yumenoato.net/bbs/1468173164/l50).
You will get the gold label to your file when the mods make sure that it is the first manga in はるか.

>>145799397
The point was whenever you should let them deal with it or not. I think not, because them getting fucked does bother me.
In the end it depends on whenever you want to please the fans or the licensing company. You're free to do as you wish, but when it comes to me I'd rather please the former.

>>145799565
Licensers in the end are still a form of scanlator group, albeit run by a company. Would you be mad if another group hijacked a scan you were doing?

No, that's my problem for being too slow.

>Licensers in the end are still a form of scanlator group, albeit run by a company.
And with actual, legal right to do what they do.

>>145799970
Out of curiosity, how many series are you scanlating and how long have you been scanlating?

>>145800572
Three at the moment. I'm not sure, it's been a couple years of irregular activity now. I'm not particularly committed to one group.

>>145794856
There's an interested translator in Batoto, contact him.

MEANDTHEDEVILBLUESJESUSFUCKINGCHRIST

>>145796565
I do because of what >>145796623 said.
If it gets dropped by said company though, I would go back to it if people ask.

>>145790384
Doesn't have much to do with scanlation but it does have to do with translation. What would be a simple site or blog to dump translations with support to upload images along the text? All platforms I checked either had too many options or some kind of ads.

Fuck Illuminati for being so bizarrely decentralized. Like, they could be so much faster and better, but they choose to be disorganized out of their fucking minds. It's screwed the English-only world out of a lot of content that they would otherwise be able to read.

The part that really irks me more than anything about them is that they'll say they're working on a project like Devil Blues, but will have released two chapters in over a year. That is *not* working on a project, that's hibernation at absolute best.

>>145807283
No, just curious on how to cleaning the texture without using surface blur.

>>145807630
Again, it's not surface blur but Topaz Clean. Maybe surface blur was used after Topaz because the image now looks extremely blurred. My best guess would probably a very strong Topaz Clean preset.

My way of cleaning it would have been to remove the creases and level it properly. A super light Topaz DeNoise filter would also be nice, but not so strong as to destroy the details of the image (DeNoise rarely does, unlike Clean)

>>145796623
Official licensed releases only usually come out in a certain region, the US or UK. The rest of us all over the world that don't have a sizable scanlation scene in our native languages unlike the spanish, french, chinese etc also rely on your work.

>>145799871
In any case, nobody owns any series and the only people that has any legal ownership is the Japs and the licensing company. There's nothing you can do if another groups starts translating the same thing.

Any typesetters here who like slim vertical text bubbles? If we had one more typesetter for our group we'd be a lot faster.

/a/

>>145822823
Ideally people should see it as natural, like it was done by artist himself, the best case being redrawn sfxs to match original. I.e. redrawn sfx > font sfx > signed sfx > no sfx translation at all. But redrawn/font sfx doesn't worth it unless you doing it for money or e-pen, or being too young autistic perfectionist.
That said, your typesetting could be much better.

Writing a script should be very easy, there is no encryption or obfuscation.

I appreciate the efforts of people like you, but I very much prefer Fakku's way of handling SFX, they just write the sound besides/close to the original.

I don't know if I'm nitpicking but I usually notice when the SFXes have been changed since they don't resemble/match the originals, unless it's a superb work (usually not worth the time).

He's just most likely misinformed because Hisasi has done original stuff for Wani.

Fakku is extremely unlikely to release any parody doujinshi from Japanese artists.

I've just never had a need for it. If I need a gray color while redrawing it'll be something I can get with the eyedropper, and for black and white I just hit D.

up you go

>>145830794
so I'm guessing the only answer to my question is "wait as it says"?

so can we post raws again on madokami?

>>145853849
No, admin is still being a dick and no one set up any replacement.
At least jcafe is back up.

I've gotten a bunch of 600 dpi raws for a manga but can anyone show me or link me to a guide for straightening pages? I'm pretty bad at it and just wanna get better at it without having to ask someone else to do it for me.

>>145855974
Literally just drag the ruler tool across a panel border you know should be straight horizontal or vertical, and click Straighten Layer near the top of the screen.

I know that all the scanlation groups are always busy, so I'd like to say thanks for all your hard work! I haven't found anything on Renjoh Desperado yet, aside from going through the author's twitter page, but the art looks awesome and the setting seems interesting. I'm hoping someone will pick it up and scan/translate/typeset/rip/etc it in the future.

>>145859648
>Renjoh Desperado
I get the magazine that's in. I don't read it myself, but if anyone's interested in translating it I could get raws. I think I might also have a rip of the first volume lying around somewhere.

I'd wait and find someone who says they'll do it first.

It's a margin. You literally just have to leave it blank. Your messing it up took more effort than doing it correctly.

Ureshon chapter 2 when?

>>145874446
sure thing autismo

>>145874861
Script is done, but the typesetter is a bit busy and is getting through it a bit slower than chapter 1. Don't really know when it'll be out.

>>145873354
I might be interested, how do I contact them if I don't have a jcafe account?

It's speciality is the highly effective dark gag humor and art reminiscent of the classic gangster manga. It's like a seinen Cromartie that's overfilled with Mechazawas, Freddies, gorillas and criminal masterminds.
The first chapter should tell you everyhing.

http://bato.to/comic/_/comics/kyoaku-gakuen-r15906

Even if your level is still low, would you translate something if you knew that someone else worse than you would do it in your place?

>>145887219
Seems boring and no cute girls, so gonna have to pass it up familia

Probably, no harm in trying

If the other group is really that awful you could give it a try. Maybe you could dump your scanlation on /a/ with a link to the raws and ask for a translation check. Which series?

I'm shocked myself. From what I can see, it's ended alright. Though. I wish I could tell what the fuck is going on.

Anyone silly enough to want to translate Dai Nippon Samurai Girl?

Maybe just do one chapter because I want to know right-wing crap what she's ranting about.

https://mega.nz/#!VkkmzZiB!aboIRtCBFrEYZOZvrKKYq7uV6X2Fc5iTjlK7QnK5pIA

Also, I wrote a little program to scrape manga off reader websites.

>>145853998
Someone was kicking around the idea of a replacement, with some extra serve units they had, but so far all I've seen is a lot of talk and little to no action.

>>145881498

>>145891614
Isn't another group doing it?

>>145892466
No idea, but the progress is so slow, they'll get to volume 4 in 2021.
They definitely need some serious help.

>>145892701
You have TLs for volume 1?

>>145893054
Yeah. I think the butterflies people have at least started typesetting it.
http://desuarchive.org/a/thread/138579871/#138589858

The problem is the translation of the further chapters.

someone pick up himouto umaru chan
we're like 30 issues behind

>>145894362
I can TL the later chapters if I can find the time. Just see if you can find vol 4.

>>145894800
That would be very nice. I'd prefer you collaborate with the butterflies(they must have a spare typesetter) or drop off the pastebin in one of these chapters. But why vol4 though?

>>145894383

Not 30. Just 19. And I can use public raws, but it'll be mostly like this and I can't clean for shit.

>>145897895
If you want to translate it, if might be worth getting in contact with a group that does something from Young Jump. They could be willing to share raws.

>>145898359
True, but I'm also lazy as fuck. I could, but it'll be in the form of weekly live TL then letting it rot here until someone gets it out somewhere.

>>145898449
Fair enough, no reason to get better raws if you're not going to edit it. There's probably volumes out by now anyway.

>>145898614
Nope, volume 8 goes up to 142. 145 onward is all young jump, though I expect a new volume to be out within the next month since it seems to be around 18-20 per volume.
