Sorry, I definitely messed up the aspect ratio when I exported on the last upload.

This is a re-upload as I was previously uploading on a website which has since been taken down. It's a work I did a few months back -- unfortunately I don't start rotating the page titles until a few chapters later, but I appreciated the feedback on that.

Thanks for the constructive criticism and for the comments. I know it's MTL which isn't as good, but the current alternative is literally nothing, so I hope that's okay for now.

That’s fine. Ultimately the purpose of scanslation is to provide translations of

  • series which will never get official translations (yet)
  • or ones which will take a while for them to be officially translated

What I’m trying to say is that an MTL’d chapter is still okay, with the consideration that the reader will purchase the official release when they get to that point.

…all of you guys are gonna support the official release, right?

Anyway thanks for the chapter Ginseng. I can’t believe we got Free! in a manga before Free! actually got a manga.

No. Seven seas is shit. Remember when they disagreed with the author of one series and insisted that the character that she said was a gay man was actually trans?

I don't buy official releases anymore. I just buy the Japanese volumes and then read the scanlations.

But scanslations can also be incorrect? Like literally half of Baki’s scanslations were of a guy making the translations up.

Well the chapter isn't cropped anymore. I can probably ignore the MTL since better have it than 1 year of nothing.

The fact you re-upload it and fixing it makes me take my word back bout the lack of passion (figured u might since i did checked ur other upload and it doesn't have much the same flaws). Still wonder how tf does the cropping went to crap in the first place since i've seen it enough time that i think it's something to do with how things gets uploaded to this site...

Also atleast that harsh comment of that blud shows how decent the report function is in this forum lmao

You forget about the places with the same language but without any official release :meguuusad: how dare you!! :aquadrink:
Honestly... and the USA doesn't even have English as its official tongue :qq:


Madness rants aside, it was fine :win:, and as I've said countless times before, MTL is perfectly OK as long as the prompts are made correctly. I've made translations into old English and they work pretty much flawlessly. Well, unless you MTL using crap like DeepL or Google Translate, then it's going to be crap and require a crap ton of QC.


You can even make the language model try to infer missing text due to bad scans, and it usually works out, or at least makes the text look and sound natural, which is a huge w (even if it's wrong :9 ) We're at an era where basic translations are done better using AI than by real humans, kinda sad, but also really helpful.

I agree with this. If you people haven't yet, try using Gemini to read japanese web novel. It can be stiff but readable, easy, rather effortless, and doesn't require special skill. And LLMs has feature where you can set memo for recurring context, such as substituting specific terms. And you don't have to deal with real life pricks; if you say the cat is dog, the LLMs will be obedient (by gaslighting themselves :dogkek: )

edit: by Gemini I meant the LLM series itself, not to be confused with the app or web
