@TalesForgotten go read the entire comment thread for chapter 48. labanina, along with me and in a more general sense everyone who didn't like the release was told to shut up, learn japanese, or put out our own releases for complaining about an intentional mistranslation by members of flaming...

ahahahahaha i'm glad i sat around and did nothing. @labanina good job, it's a bit dry and obviously mtl'ed but that can't be helped here. for all of you complaining about 'sniping', when people get told 'if you don't like it, you do better' and then they do something, you don't get to say...

@mage_goo teenagers have the capability to understand and comprehend things that children don't. they may be still be in education, but they are getting an education and have more common sense and experience dealing with society than children do. it isn't (or wasn't with the economy being like...

@mage_goo is that not what you're doing in this post? tbqh i'm having trouble parsing your posts in comparison to others here. anyway, you should be nice to children, (for the sake of this argument, and what I have pictured in my head as what runs a lemonade stand, as is what is usually...

@Fwaifuxsenpai it's not going to get done by me, who doesn't know japanese at all, but you don't need to be a wine sommelier to see the problems with this image, you don't need to be an architect to see the problems in this image, and you shouldn't have to be a scanlator to see the problems in...

@mage_goo when your only defense left of a bad release is that "the people working on it are children and that you should be nice to them" that means you've lost the argument. first you compare them to prepubescent children too young to go to school, who are the ones who normally sell lemonade...

@mage_goo no, not child, now fuck off with your tedious and disingenuous semantic argument, a teenager isn't a damn child in the sense they know what real responsibility is; if this scanlation group is staffed by 6-year-olds that would shock me that they could put something out, but since the...

@mage_goo I have no idea where small children who sell lemonade are capable of learning to drive but in my country you have to be roughly 15 and a half and have a legal adult with a full license there with you. that's 'learning to shave, getting a real job (not a lemonade stand but working for...

@mage_goo the intention and implication was supposed to be that this isn't someone strolling up to a lemonade stand run by someone who looks like they're five, you're at one run by a group of people who are at least obvious teenagers.

@mage_goo i don't know what you're asking here. the context for this scene, and others in this series, is an adult, mitsuha, allows others to think she's younger than she is, as a means of manipulation. in this case, as 'translated', her suddenly singing a song originally from 1978 and saying...

@yuushin you disrespect the source material by changing the author's words and intentions solely to make a joke. in a series about politics and economy, you change a line with some political history that, even devoid of its historical context, would have been of interest or relevance to a queen...

@Flupser why should i be grateful and inclined to donate ('free with a tip jar' isn't free) over a release they have a full-page ad dedicated solely to their patreon, multiple typos, and an intentional mistranslation that the translator put in it because "it was fun" when other groups who also...

@frozard this whole notion of "it's done for free means you can't criticise it" is a pox upon scanlation considering the advent of groups with a patreon, meaning it's not done for free anymore, the advent of machine translations where chapters just don't make any narrative sense, and as shown...

@yuushin "haha it's just manga br0 i got fat stacks o' yen i don't need this br0heim" then quit

@mage_goo if this lemonade stand is run by a group of people who are at least capable of learning to drive wherever they reside, and have a tip jar with a big cardboard sign saying please donate, and one of them uses salt instead of sugar for a joke, and then insults people who spit it out, then...

@yuushin doing things for 'free' (you have a single page in this very release dedicated solely to your group's patreon when most other groups that near-shamelessly beg for change still manage to cram it with regular credits) doesn't mean you get immunity from criticism. the dude sitting on the...

@yuushin so you admit you and your group don't take your craft seriously at all, will intentionally mistranslate if it's deemed funny enough, and when the quality of the work, not you yourselves but your work, is questioned, you lash out with personal attacks, and do note, you were the first one...

@yuushin if your group would spend more time proofreading your work to notice things like page 10's "how what are you going to [etc.]" and page 22's "earlier they told me they want to talk so get on the car, they will treat me food" instead of adding memes and multiple credit pages advertising...

@doomrider7 Actual leftist here, the difference between the two groups is that while Rapeman readily admits that his main focus is "meme propagation" (as stated on /a/ when he said he's quitting), he saves that for the credit page. He translates things properly, and doesn't insert his memes into...

@DizzyDazzle They don't really care about proselyting, if they did care they would have done so from the beginning like Rapeman did/does with his credit pages. The politics only truly came out of the group after an argument on discord and an opportunity for public shaming appeared; before that...
