why is it being retranslated
I'm doing it for two reasons: Some of the chapters in the past weren't very good quality either being mistranslated, translated through MTL, or using low resolution pages so I wanted to make sure all previous chapters had a level of consistency. And the other reason is that I want to reupload this series to a different site and I don't want to reupload people's translations without permission.

Btw could you tell me what other site is and it's link in dm or here? Nowadays MD became more unreliable with dmca / mod or admin deleting stuff with bs reason / tlers leaving and deleting their stuff on MD.

The other site is Dynasty Scans, though the site itself is majorly focused on yuri works, so most of its library is just yuri.

I compared a few pages we both did hoping the me of 4 year ago wasn't one of those low-quality translations, but given how different some of the lines were lol
That said, if anything I've ever done is to someone's standards then the only thing I'd ask is mentioning my name.

I really didn't mean to throw shade at anyone (maybe a little at the MTLers), my bad. I looked at the comparison too and I think your translations were generally alright if a bit unpolished. I think the main problem with your pages is the typesetting. Looking at your more recent stuff it's definitely improved, but using standard fonts can look quite out of place. There's actually quite a good guide here on mangadex I used back when I was starting out(though even now my typesetting isn't amazing lol)

I currently don't plan on using anyone else's work, but obvious if I ever do I will credit you. (And probably contact you beforehand)

Dw, I know you weren't trying to insult anyone. And yeah, I had no idea what font everyone else was using so I just picked whatever I personally liked, and thought was easy to read. Also thanks for the link to the typesetting guide! I've never actually consulted one before (Proooobably shoulda done that when I started, oopsies! Better late than never? Question mark?)
