Viz Media is picking it up, they might just start over at chapter one and release weekly translations.

>>160129504
I'm reading Golden Kamui and Dungeon Meshi, both have been licensed and are getting translated. Also I think the One Piece threads post the Viz translation of the chapter they read last week on Tuesday?

I've literally never read a manga that I couldn't find online due to getting licensed.

Someone else will pick it up if the demand is high enough. Shame though, Psylocke was doing a pretty good job.

Im sure someone else will pick it up, I just hope we still have threads every week where someone dumps it and people wait to read it in the thread.

If translations become too influenced by Western Culture that it changes the original author's intent than it'll be butchered. Otherwise we just have to deal with waiting a long time to getting new translated chapters.
>>160129699
It's a really flawed business model Viz had going on. Instead of acknowledging the huge amount of already translated material they just start from the ground up. Obviously they won't just reupload the old translations but you figured they can just contact the previous translators and buy their translations for a cheap price. Then they can just go through and make whatever changes they feel fit. Anyone who starts with the first chapter on Viz will find the next chapters on different websites, which is something Viz shouldn't want. Until they catch up with the already released chapters, all they do is advertise for the pirates sites that host it.

Someone will pick it up, it's popular.

>>160129891
Most likely Viz just wants to make sure that their translations are "Viz Quality". It still takes a large amount of effort to verify and edit a fan translation to a particular set of professional standards.

>>160129991
I do agree with you on that regard but it's still ridiculous how long we would have to wait for the newest chapter to be translated by them. Honestly if they could just have separate teams working on translating the initial chapters and the newest ones that would be nice. It might not be realistic from a financial standpoint but most people have little motive to support the new translated release of chapters they already read.

>>160129641
You can get into trouble for scanlating that, but the main reason is because ultimately there will be a translation and, as scanlating is hard work, if Viz is going to catch up soon then it might not be worth it.
Thanks Jag.

Bleh this was a good fan translation. Now we're stuck with Vizwang forever.

Would you read it if it was translated by niggerstream?

>>160129189
I need someone to pick this up. Reading it togeather with /a/ was really enjoyable. It's been one of the funniest manga I've read in a while.
Good on psylocke for having kept going untill this point.

>>160133148
MS is going to pick it up because it's popular and they need more clicks on their site after getting stiff competition on their WSJ manga

>>160129891
Viz despises piracy so they'd never do that unlike fakku that buys your favorite translators to their dark side.

>>160132276
The only good thing from this is that with Kaguya Thursdays gone, faggots like you and the Nisekoifag won't be there to shitpost anymore.

>>160129189

I would love to but I'm a coward who is scared of DMCA notices, and doing it anonymously would suck because muh epeen.

Fuck i was hoping seven seas would license it.

Viz ruined everything for everyone yet again.

>>160129189
thanks for the notice, I'll steer clear of this series then. don't want to end up stuck with an incomplete mess.

Worst part is not getting to read the comments and reactions here real-time.
Sucks for people who live outside US as well.

>>160129891
You are aware that the Japanese Publisher checks the translation?

>>160133751
Just read till they leave the student council and treat that as the end.

Also, didn't make it to the weekly thread but thanks Jag and Psylocke Scans.

I'm interested in picking the translation effort up. My only concern is availability of raws. Where did Psylocke get their raws?

>>160134262
I lurk in several group Discords and there's more than a few interested in picking it up. But they all share your concern about obtaining the raws.

Don't worry, it's pretty popular in /a/, so somebody will bound to pick it up and official translations usually never stop scanlations. I hope someone can also dump it in the threads like always

I hope anyone who picks it up ain't no drama queen or involve in any scanlation drama (although I'm pessimistic of this)

>>160134330
Yeah it's obtaining the raws that's a problem. IIRC there's always a Chinese forum that leaks several pages of the newest chapter around today or tomorrow, do they supply the full raws?

Enjoy waiting a eternity to get up to date.

Has there been any other cases where a popular series gets licensed, dropped/DMCA'd, and pissed off a lot of people?

As long as Niggerstream doesn't get it I'd be fine. Those watermarks are awful.

Wow, everything I like is being torn and burn.

>>160134262
The weekly issue of the magazine is always uploaded on the day of the release.

1. dump Japanese raw on /a/
2. Wait for drive-by translation
3. ???
4. Fun times for all.

Shame, clean scans that aren't in shitty korean are so nice. Wish I knew how to find good raws.

>>160135134
It seems like getting the raws is the real problem for some.

>>160135129
Sauce dude. If we have raws translation should come easy.

>>160135351
manga-zip.net for example. Just go on there and search 週刊ヤングジャンプ . They always have the raws on time on thursdays, although this week was a little late.

It's not as good quality as you'd get with proper scans, but it's free and they're on time.

Pissing off a bunch of EOP pirates isn't a big deal. Fuck you /a/

>>160135129
>>160135351
They're shit and sometimes have pages cut off. If you want good raws of series from magazine that doesn't have digital release, you have to get your own raw provider.

>>160135531
They wouldn't be good enough for typesetting, that's obvious. It's enough to post and just translate with greentext.

>>160135459
are they really that bad? can't you correct noise with topaz plugins?

>Go to sleep late and wake up early to go for water

>>160136212
Plain low quality that would look massively inconsistent when you'd draw to clean it and makes redrawing simply impractical.

Like I said, I'd be fine if someone would just post these and post the translation with greentext. It's fairly unlikely any proper group would pick this up and would both use proper raws and typesetting with the risk of being DMCA'd.

>>160136314
what if the translated content is hosted outside of US? It's not like everything english translated can be DMCAed

>>160136212
That its x1200
Proper scans should be x3200.
Atleast whoever is scanning it does an acceptable job, most scanners don't put a page behind the page.

>>160129189
>Viz Media

I can't remember, how badly do they usually butcher their translations with localisations and poor interpretations?

>>160136374
there were people on the Scanlation Thread discussing the proper way to tear apart tankobons and other magazines with an heat source in order to scan page by page
people should start selling tools for this job since hair dryers and hair straighteners are kind of messy to use

>>160136456
That sounds like a really niche market.

it's not impossible but it's still a risk I guess. I'd gladly prefer a DIY tutorial on how to do the job properly tho

If people don't mind paint-tier typesetting I could do translations for /a/ only provided that I have steady source of raws

>>160136565
If somebody has a steady source of raws then they'd probably know how to at least TS it.

>>160136565
People can translate in green text and other anons with better editing skills might typeset tehm later, like it happens with Tsugumomo.

The point is that you'll have to wait months if not years for them to catch up on the official translation

Like Golden Kamuy got licensed, but it's still 100 chapters behind the fan scanlations (which are 30 chapters behind the Japanese version)...if it had been dropped, as happened with Kaguya, fans would have never gotten translations of the past twenty or so chapters and still be waiting for official translations of stuff that is years old before they could get any "new" stuff

>>160136813
Because there are only available till Ch23.
Scan it yourself.

>>160136813
>>160136983
Ch23, vol5.
Vol 6(last one) is scanned but in horrible quality.

Obviously, everybody gets the public magazine raws the day it comes out, but if you are actually looking for the provider, you could just talk to whoever translates Kingdom or Urataro

The interesting thing about scanlations for stuff from Weekly Young Jump, is a lot of times they are actually about one week ahead of the actual magazine so they are probably sourcing from the same place that is getting the magazine over a week early

Since it looks like I'm gonna have to buy WYJ from now on, what's good in it? TG:re is going down the shitter fast and I'm hesitating to pick up Kingdom.

>>160137211
Uratarou is being done by jaimini and raw provider is Heisenberg. Dunno about Kingdom. Also checked NS' raw provider for WYJ, it's Friedrich. All of their scanned raws are shit, or the cleaners are shit.

>they are actually about one week ahead of the actual magazine
It's the same about other magazines, like WSM or WSJ, just not so early.

someone else will pick it up if only because american license means jackshit for everyone else

Cat-scans released a chapter once last month I think. Dammit they are slow. I remember when I kept waiting forever for Kyou no Cerberus chapters

If there aren't any good magazine raws one could go for the tankobon.
Releases would be a few months behind the magazine, but that's still better than nothing.

Fret not, as the upcoming anime adaptation will soon put an end to any desires for further thread discussions

>>160137945
Yeah, volume scans are of pretty good quality. You would't get back cover and inside cover though unless somebody scans them.

you will all now realize how important the scanlator is

kaguya will never be the same. officially dropped with tremendous sadness

>>160135203

when have we ever said the scanlator isnt important. and dont say that we are mean to scanlators in general, notice that we are mourning jag dropping this because he was actually competent at it, when we insult scanlators is always the ones who rewrite it and generally fuck it up. if that was the case here we would not be this sad now.

>>160136927
That was mainly due to 4kids meddling

Little mad at Viz for picking up Kaguya but kinda happy that they picked up Kimetsu in addition

I'll really miss kaguya though, threads were great.

>>160139196

Golden Kamuy is one of the best series ongoing right now, Kingdom is actually quite good and Urataro is fun

I personally would like to read Usogui and Riku-do, but both their scanlations were dropped a few months ago so I put them on hold

There's also a bunch of new series that recently started

But, just off the last issue that came out a couple days ago, I think this was the one that really stood out to me (the scene is hilariously bizarre)

>>160141639
Jag stated that the reason he's dropping Kaguya it's because personal matters and Viz licensing the manga is just a excuse to drop it.

I'm happy it got picked up because that means it's getting recognized as something worth selling here.
I'm sad because now I can't get it for free and I don't currently have the money to buy it.

>>160154398
He's been mentioning in threads that he got really busy over the last month or two and needed help editing, most likely he never got it and didn't have time to do it all himself anymore. The license would have just been the final nail in the coffin, no reason to overwork yourself if you know someone else is doing it.

can they DMCA 4CHAN if someone translates it here ?

>>160154659
Of course not you fucking retard. Otherwise nothing would get dumped here.

who cares if those faggots dropped it, someone else will get it, stop overreacting

>>160154659
Hypothetically yes, if someone actually bothers to file a DMCA claim, it'll be deleted and the uploader gets warned. They'd have to catch the thread while it's alive though.
I don't think Viz has ever done this here though.

>>160154398
Jag himself said the licensing is just an excuse to drop it at a convenient time.
