I translated and cleaned the next chapter of Itsuya-san, but if possible, I'd like to use the same fonts as the (dead) group that worked on the previous chapters.

Can anyone ID this font, and the one used on the following page?

A scanlation group walks into a bar.

The scanner says, "I'll have nigorizake."
The cleaner says, "I'll have shochu."
The redrawer says, "I'll have hanazake."
The translator says, "I'll have habushu."
The proofreader says, "I'll have umeshu."
The typesetter says, "I'll have genshu."

Then they all drink stone blind.

And that's why the next chapter of your favorite manga will be delayed.

I'm planning on releasing chapters of Sunoharasou no Kanrinin-san in batches, probably in threes. That way it doesn't actually feel like 8 pages per release, though it takes the same amount of time.

This is really my first time doing this, so I don't really know how good or bad of an idea that may be.

I'm here. Can you not work with the team regularly? That second one shows some promise that we really desperately need. I lack the energy to do these redraws consistently, and the skill to do them quickly. How long did you spend on that second one? Because if it was anything less than ~2 hours, you're a faster worker than I am.

Assuming the case in which you can't help, I'm just gonna post the help wanted again.

>>147984460
I didn't time it rigorously, but it was less than 2 hours, closer to 1.
The first one was maybe half an hour.

What kind of workload would you have me take on a weekly basis?
Also, I am really new to redrawing (and scanlation in general), so there might be pages that I just cannot properly fix.

WANTED:

REDRAWER WITH DEEP MASOCHISM STREAK, FOR BAKI SERIES

We need a redrawer who can manage some pretty unfair redraws, and we need them now-er rather than not now-er. If you're looking for an unjustifiable challenge to put on your scanlation resume, this would be it.

Sample of what you could be up against: there's often more than one of these per chapter. Just reply if you're interested and/or able, don't actually try to redraw it - the guy above kindly went that extra mile for me already.

Full disclosure: if we don't get a redrawer now-ish, I'm going to kill myself. So that's going to be on you if you're capable of doing this and choose not to do it. Help us. Help me.

>>147984641
Err, it depends week-to-week, honestly. Some chapters have literally zero redraws, others have every single page plastered in text. There are two Baki series, of which we try to complete one chapter weekly, but there's no 'strictness' to it - if you take longer, none of us will say a word.

I'm gonna upload two average chapters to mega right now - one from each series - so that you can have a more proper gander. My fingers are crossed.

What's your schedule?

Sorry to say this, but I can't imagine anyone here will do that for you. It's not exactly easy to read for non-native Japanese readers. If it's important enough to you, pick out a pro. I doubt seven pages will cost you much.

>>147986735

>>147985748
>>147985862
I would be willing to give it a shot, but I'm really not confident in my ability to redraw some of those panels, so I think it's best for me to decline, sorry.

I really don't want to let the only person who bit to get away that easily, so I have a proposal: how about I get your email (or vice-versa, whatever you prefer in this public space) so that I might occasionally see if you can help with a page on which I'm struggling. Is that something you'd be alright with doing? No real ties to the group, but you'd be credited whenever you did something with us.

Regardless, we still do need to find a full-time redrawer... the battle continues. Ho-hum.

Some guy keeps posting this in the one page threads for some reason so I figured I'd post it here and ask about it.

Never mind the awful typesetting (the original text is in quite a standard narration font, and it's black text with a white outline, not white text with a black outline, so it doesn't even match), the original pages are very dark and muted, with the brightest shade being a dim gray, and it seems the cleaner for this interpreted this as poor-quality scans and tried to get it to normal brightness for manga. So as a result it's, well, not great.

The shading of the original is pretty much the same as something else the artist did, which you can see here:
https://danbooru.donmai.us/posts/1608871?pool_id=7984

Is such loss in quality inevitable? I know there's always at least a slight detraction from the original caused by the process, but I didn't think it'd be this bad.

I don't know if a TL is sitting in this thread, but would anyone be interested in translating the remainder of Seto no Hanayome?
The 10th anniversary of the anime is coming up (aired originally Apr 2007 - Oct 2007), so I'd like to put something out and close the series if possible.
All that's left, I think, is the final volume, though I need to confirm.

>>147997059
A lot of cleaners just go for blackest blacks and whitest whites, which ends up smearing out texture and obliterating midtones a lot of the time. It's unavoidable to certain extent because many people either don't know how to clean or don't understand what they're looking at and what they think it should be. You see this a lot in Jump manga, for example. The magazine quality is shit, then you get shit scans, then you get shit cleaning which all compounds into a visual nightmare.

>>148001711
They still fuck it up when using digital Jump raws.

90KB, 354x304px

Can I get some advice on how to clean these damn textures?

>>148001711
Not him, but that sounds pretty much me, though.
Round out what should be black to black or near-black (ink), round out the whites if needed, pen tool to clean up dust, pixeltrash artifacts, etc.

If the tones start looking like they're being blown out, I dial it back, but rounding to near-blacks is still a priority. Reading a manga in greys triggers me somewhat.

>>148002193
Clone stamp/brush tool, though content-aware fill might be passable in small chunks.
You'll likely need to manually redraw the splat with a black brush, though

Okay, let's try something different.

What do you people do? I want to get an idea of how many people are translators, how many are cleaners, etc.

>>148002326
Thanks. That's what I've been doing, but the gradient colors make it really hard to clone stamp. Anything else you could add, senpai?

>>148002720
I don't understand why 6 people are needed in the first place, but working alone can be harsh.
What are you working on?

>>148002780
Well, things to do if you're clonestamping is dependent on how much effort you want to put in. If you aren't already, work on a separate layer.

For one, pay attention to other blobs of the same orientation (as in, getting the fades from the right direction and rebuilding with them. Alternatively you can stamp on an empty layer and rotate it in 90° chunks or something.
Two, try looking across other pages in the chapter (or even series) to get samples of the same tone to work with.
Three, line up so that the texture actually matches the rest of the texture. In this case, the checkerboard. You can kind of see it's distorted and doesn't look that great (difficult to notice when you slap text on top, but still). Due to the way pages get distorted when scanned in, it's usually not a 1:1 checkerboard and you're going to have to fiddle with it.
Four, you can create your own tone from samples using pattern fills and the like on another layer and masking it over the original layer in chunks, fiddling with the opacity of the mask to simulate the gradient. Kinda hard to explain.

For the specific thing you're posting, one thing I'd maybe try is duplicate the original layer (so I can compare by just toggling the layers). Then, paint over some offending parts with white, then decrease the opacity of the cloned sample and stamping multiple times on the same area to simulate the gradient texture.

It's okay, everyone forgets about the scanner.

You can start by pointing out books that interest you.

>>148004032
That looks like a color page that was grayscaled. Most people don't realize that and use the same levels they do for the rest of the chapter and that kills all the details.

>>148004032
Well, this is a color image greyscaled in the tank, but I get what you mean. People just use an action that autolevels everything the same way like >>148004837 says.

Even worse are the people that use an actual that scales a page and then slap that on everything as well

I understood, but I only have the first volume and there isn't another page with this same texture. Reminder to never get a shoujo manga to clean again.
I'm giving up for now and will try messing with it after some text input. Thanks a lot, senpai.

Is this the scanlators anonymous group?

Hi everyone, I'm XXX.
I've scanlated some stuff before, doing everything by myself, crudely at start but steadily improving. As I improved it consumed more and more time since it takes time to get it done in a decent quality, and it got to the point where I just thought it'd be best to not do it anymore.

I managed to stay away from it for about a month, but I had a relapse this last month and did 6 releases already, plus a few scripts only.

I thought I could stop, but it's harder than I expected. My psychologist said the easiest way to quit is to switch dependences, like gaming for example, but I'm afraid this isn't working.

>>148005500

>>148005294
Can't really help you with the OMD situation, but here's a script that will rip everything and won't stop working unless they do some MASSIVE changes to the reader.

Honestly if there is no object or person to be redrawn content-aware fill is good enough. It takes like no time and once you put english over it it looks fine.

>>148006580
I hope you're joking because that looks like shit.

>>148006170
Novels work in a different way, it'd require another thing entirely. Working with the reader like I am would also limit you to the text size you set in the reader options, it might turn into quite a mess.
I'd work on something for it but currently I'm doing a tool that allows me to rip stuff from rakuten more easily with those delicious 550 yen coupons. Maybe someone else can look into it, it's not like canvas dropping and autoclicking is much of an art.

I think his point is that you can do that, typeset over it, and then manually tweak what's left.

The point is that the content-aware does a lot of the grunt work.

>>148006114

Yeah, that's what's happening to me too. Looks like they're upping their arms race

Sankyuu soo much, senpai!

Thanks Rakuten.

>>148007294
Is there some way to automate it? I've been getting a bunch of stuff but it's annoying to have to make a new account and go through all the steps for each book.

>>148001027
The heroine in this one is a whore who should be put to death.

>>148007086
It would be weird if it weren't gay.

>>148007656
Do you mean the guy in the girl's body or the girl in the guy's body?

Thanks.
>>148006893
Considering it took me quite some time to do it manually and with content aware it looks almost the same I'd say it's worth it.

In pic related, middle is manual, right is content aware.

>>148007606

Pirate iMacro and use these scripts that I've hammered out.

I don't rip many books nowdays, just stuff that I want. A guy I know is probably still going nuts with it and can probably run an entire raw site himself now.

Look over the scripts, you'll need to make csv files to store the book URL and the account email.

>>148007741
The girl in the guy's body. She is a terrible person.

>>148007865
I'll give it a try, thanks. Once all those are bought, you just rip each one normally or is there some way to speed that up too?

She's so cute though.

What does she do that's so terrible?

>>148007865
It's not working for me, it just stops when it's supposed to log in and never puts any values into the fields. Did they change some values since you wrote the scripts or am I just retarded?

>>148007294
>over 800 GB of ebooks
That better be on nyaa.

>>148008649
>or am I just retarded?
Answered my own question, it was defaulting to the Japanese page so it wasn't finding the register button..

>>148008657

It's more like 2tb now.

>>148008649

Look over the script as it's running, see if it skips over or hangs on something. It works on my machine. Did you make a csv with the login info?

Oh, also, you need to put the Rakuten csv in your iMacro datasource folder, and the farmed_accounts csv in your iMacro downloads folder.

>>148008783
What do you have?

>>148005550

You need to work your way down, you can't just stop scanlating overnight. Drop your least favoriten projects, working down to one or two monthly series.

I just started scanlating stuff in September, and so far, it's hard to stay focused, but I find it pretty rewarding.
Is scanlation actually draining for you guys, or are you having a goof?

>>148009456
>started in September
Ayy lmao, see how you feel after a year newfriend.

The hours are long and few will thank you, but you are directly contributing to a hobby that you enjoy. 3 years ongoing.

Assuming you're from that group, since you're also doing Thunderbolt Fantasy, the anons in the TF thread have translated the sword names plus their references. Not sure how useful it might be for you when doing the later chapters but eh, just thought you might wanna know. >>147955456

Depends on how much stuff you work on. It's been 3 years and I have no plans to stop anytime soon. I genuinely enjoy it as a hobby, even if some of the manga I translate aren't widely read. Made some friends too.

It depends on what you do and how much of it you do. It depends on how you pace yourself, and what you promise others.

I overloaded myself with work by pure accident last week after making promises that I thought I'd be able to meet at the time. I ended up editing 400 pages in 6 days, and that fucked me up bad; such that I decided to not touch anything related to scanlation for at least a week. Scanlating can be a hard-knock life sometimes.

>>148010751
Wow, that sounds rough, pal.
I'm still too green to overload myself, I think. I'm more focused right now on making my workflow more efficient.

by the way, anyone know if Let it go scan dropped Yokai shoujo?

>>148008783
Having the same problem as >>148008753
Is there a way to force it to use English so the script will work?

>>148010856
According to their site ch81 is at typesetting, and an update at the beginning of August said that they had ordered the volume. So it looks like it's not dropped but it's been two months since then, so I don't know?
