I love it, I don't feel that lonely when I read manga, It's feels like I'm reading it with someone.

>"editor" comments in the margins
I equate it to someone voicing their commentary in a movie theater.

Anyway, quality scanlation time?

>>159032243
What makes people think that watermarks like that are a good idea?

>>159032209
Well, they are doing it for free and wasting their time, beggars can't be choosers.

>>159032822
Their top priority is their own ego; sharing a quality product with fellow fans is a secondary concern.

Of course it often doesn't work anyway, since other sites will just upload a non-vandalized version when it becomes available.

>>159031928
>Watermarks
>Obvious TN's
>I'm forced to stay home everyday to care for my mother
All of these I can get, but why would they put joke comments? Do they think I won't understand that the manga is supposed to be funny?

>>159033193
Same reason idiots make "witty" comments in a movie theater: they genuinely think they're insightful or are just being assholes.

>>159032910
>other sites will just upload a non-vandalized version when it becomes available
Sometimes there isn't a non-vandalized version.

You can't just learn Japanese.

>>159033816
A fair point.

>>159032209
wrath pls

>>159034164
Wrath isn't the one making the notes he's just defending the people he's in charge of

>>159031928
That's kind of rare nowadays. Back then, oh man. It's funnier when you read the editor notes and there's paragraphs explaining a joke.

I don't care what you think, you can do your own translation if you are so concerned.

Scanlation entails taking risks

"Don't change anything" conservatives like you a dime a dozen, just as a city is 90% populated by them, here you are, Mr. Anon Whiner.

You are probably anon because you've never changed the world in a meaningful way. You find meaning in rejecting experimentation towards a better world.

So sad.

I saw that in a doujin I frequent and I still like it.

>>159034571
You don't really need to stick unfunny jokes in though.

Chillax my dude.
That Anon is complaining about people who make unnecessary remarks between pages.
A few TL notes won't change the quality of the overall product but there's some of us who have taken it too far.

OP is right but he's being too mean about it.

>That's kind of rare nowadays
Yeah.
I read "Isekai Maou to Shoukan Shoujo Dorei Majutsu" and apparently that's one of those rare cases, bit annoying but at least the translator release chapters without comments too.

His mother isn't actually sick, you dumb retard

>>159031928
Nothing new, when trollsubs become the norm. One more detail that contributed to the death of fansubs to the rise of CR.

>>159034949
Yeah well, just keep in mind most people who add silly comments are just teens or young adults who learned/are learning Japanese and want to practice.
And he does have a point, he does it for free so it kinda breaks your spirit when people start talking shit about it.
It's not a big deal and yeah it can break the immersion sometimes but really, it's free.
>>159035033
Waiters make a lot of money and there's nothing wrong with it. All work is honorable. Keep that in mind, specially when there's people in this board who glorify being on welfare.

Im kinda amazed theres a scanlation scene at all considering how shitty the fan reaction is.
Seems like theres nothing but negativity as a reward for your work.

Excuse me for not following his blog, you well-informed retard.

The comments are meaningless compared to all the incredibly terrible translations that are everywhere.

>>159033193
>I'm forced to stay home everyday to care for my mother
I wasn't ready for this, kek.

>>159035146
I'm not saying it's not honest work, I'm poking fun at him because he's acting like a child. I mean, let's say he actually does act or something; does he throw a tantrum like this whenever somebody thinks he stinks?

>>159035414
Yes, he's being a child about it in that pic, but you could attack that instead of just making fun of his profession.

For some reason a lot of people in the scanlation community are turbo autists who throw fits like this. In the anime TL community as well. Shit's bonkers.

Reading Aku no Hana on Mangareader was a trial for this very reason. Seriously, we're reading a manga for the manga, not for the translators to meme all over it. If Nintendo can't get away with it, neither can you.

>>159034949
So edgy.

>>159035168
Everytime. Do they expect me to write all that shit?

>>159037148
>Nintendo can't get away with it

But they already did, I remember the latest pokémon games filled with "My body is ready" "7.8/10 too much water" "It's over 9000" stuff, granted it's all old stuff but still they got away with it in the TLs and nothing is stopping that.
