The anime is pretty far ahead of this ... but that's because it cut out a massive ton of stuff. Like more than half of the stuff going on in Makoto's created world was cut, including parts of this chapter, everything to do with the assassin sisters, the search for lacquerware, some of the student training ... just a whole lot.
so it's similar to where I live....but an online version
I didn't even notice chapter 105 wasn't there. It's been so long since an update
Once again, just your opinion. Mangadex is no longer the end all be all of judging scanlator etiquette. Also once again, the party in question has a history of sniping; this one is not an isolated incident.
This person/group started uploading chapters two weeks ago. They've uploaded seven chapters across four different series, and not only was every single series already being worked on, but three of the four were still being uploaded to Mangadex. Even if Tsukimichi is justifiable, this person is very clearly a sniper.
Kindly explain to me how someone posting a chapter of a manga that is not getting chapters posted is exactly sniping.
Agree to disagree. I also said he should snipe other groups, some of which have been banned from posting on Mangadex. So no, I will not use Mangadex as the only source to judge from.
Sorry but no, you can't say someone is sniping a series that is literally not getting chapters.
Do you honestly believe this? Someone's work gets ignored due to carelessness or greed, and it's just about money? Even if it were only about money, how would you feel if someone else scooped up your job from you and you didn't get any credit for what had already been done?
This is a waste of everyone's time. One version is gonna be the best or favourite so the other translators may as well have been doing something else, and the readers could have had other series available and not needed to spend time going through multiple versions of the same chapter.
Tsumi or someone else has said repeatedly that Tsukihime is still getting chapters from other groups, even if they aren't being posted here. Irenaeus said his main goal posting here was so chapters would get uploaded to a certain aggregator, so he's not even posting chapters for this site either and is just sniping on those other sites. He also sniped three other series that seem to still be getting posted to Mangadex.
Stop moving the goalposts.
This was only the case for one of the series that got sniped, and I said in that instance that both Irenaeus and Asmodeus Scans are shady.
One of the chapters posted was a commission, so turn this back around on Irenaeus.
Irenaeus himself said that he wasn't posting these for Mangadex, he was posting them primarily for other sites. Whether something has stopped being uploaded to Mangadex doesn't matter to this discussion, because Ireneaus himself said so.
Go through this comment section and find anyone acting high and mighty about paywall groups. Link the comment.
Please explain how I say both of the people involved in the situation are getting paid for piracy and then you somehow flip it into this, and also how all of that relates to my original point that it's reasonable that people get upset when something they put effort into gets invalidated.
If you only look at this series and only uploads on Mangadex, I wouldn't call it a snipe. However, Irenaeus has sniped other series that were still getting updates on Mangadex. He also said that he's uploading here so that it gets picked up by other sites, and other people have said earlier in the thread that Soseki is still uploading this series elsewhere. If you don't think sniping is bad then that's your own opinion, and IMO two of the snipes (including this one) were decently justifiable, but this is very clearly sniping.
