Thank you for the TL!

Also, why do you feel like you need a redrawer? I see nothing wrong with this.
It's a lot of work for a solo scanlator to also do a lot of heavy redrawing. Can quickly double the amount of time or more spent on a chapter compared to working on a manga without need of redrawing.

I get that, but I guess so far when I've seen people say that they need a redrawer in that way it seemed like they were talking about quality.

This is of course a personal preference, but I honestly hate it when especially sound effects get redrawn. I find myself preferring the ones that do minimal alterations usually...

Of course if there's a lot of transparency, text that's not in boxes or balloons over complex backgrounds, etc. I can see that having to just put a white box on top of that isn't great either...

I don't redraw sfx, most of them I don't even bother translate them unless they're important some way or another. But then again I'm lazy.
I also like using generative AI fill or content aware fill where I can, and just cover it up as much as I can with big strokes and text. I'm not a pro, I don't need to make it look perfect, and I'm not really that interested in redrawing in the first place.

Are you the one doing this series?

Honestly, your approach sounds perfectly fine. There are some cases where great redrawing can enhance things, but that's not all serie. =)

No I'm currently on a scanlation hiatus. Don't know when I'll be back, if ever.
I think the old school crowd like me prefers it that way. The sfxs are kind of part of the art, so I don't really like removing them either.

Yeah, I'm fairly old school as well. Also more and more I see the sound effects mistranslated/too localized, which annoys me quite a bit...
