    MD USA Meetup 2: Electric Boogaloo

    ACEN is a good all-around con that is fan-oriented, has lots of fan-run panels (over 200 a year) and a nice vidya room, etc. ColossalCon I haven't attended, but the side perk to that could be going over to CedarPoint for those that like rollercoasters. AWA I know is the biggest con in the US for...

    Welcome to the site! (MangaRock refugee thread)

    @Holo I haven't done exhaustive research, but that isn't what I've heard about the subject. It was my understanding that as an unauthorized adaptation, the rights are automatically assigned to the IP-holder who can de-facto let the licensee use it or something like that. That companies asking to...

    Welcome to the site! (MangaRock refugee thread)

    @eins I would assume it was a combination of charging a subscription fee, putting an app on the Play/App Stores making it seem "legitimate" and intentionally hiding it from the Japan region to mask their presence.

    Welcome to the site! (MangaRock refugee thread)

    @Xaelath Technically speaking, if they were to actually secure the licensing rights from a Japanese publisher, they could legally use scanlation scripts, since they are unlicensed adaptations.

    @Christopher There is a saying which goes something like "You can't (convincingly) write a character smarter than yourself." 😅

    @BestBoy The game actually came out in 2007.

    Oof, I would play, but having like a 200ms ping would be all sorts of not fun for my main classes if it is indeed hosted in NL.

    Senken no Majutsushi to Yobareta Kenshi - Vol. 1 Ch. 4

    Just get one of the girls a wig and maybe not have them wear identical outfits. Or give one of them shoes with thicker soles so she appears a slightly different height, etc.

    @Seregosa As some others have touched on in the thread, when space is a concern there is always the ebook versions to support them without actually needing stuff to carry around. (Which I'm also recovering from having to move several hundred pounds of manga lol) eBookJapan used to have an edge...

    Solo Leveling

    TLDR of the drama: Said group that removed their chapters is profit-motivated and more and more people reading on MD instead of their site was cutting into their ad revenues so they pulled them.

    This Villainess Wants a Divorce! - Vol. 1 Ch. 25

    @kiero13 The problem is she understands how her actions have changed the story in her favor with regards being "friendly" with him, but not that others are acting differently due to that as well. Gracie is also acting differently yet she thinks the prince would push forward unchanged?

    Fixing the drama problem

    @TheOneWhoSighs Most of the most prolific translators never asked for a dime. Groups like RedHawk produced several thousand chapters and their main translators each did well in excess of 500 chapters. I've done somewhere in the range of 250 chapters and never expected to be paid for my hobby...

    Fixing the drama problem

    @TheOneWhoSighs And you are always the predictable counter to pointing out shitty behavior. Imagine that, people with no ethics whatsoever would defend zero-fucks-given scanlation tactics. The fastest and highest quality groups I ever worked with were always the ones working for free. Anyone...

    Fixing the drama problem

    @SGR - As a fellow fansubber, translator, and scanlation all-rounder that has seen and suffered their fair share of drama: True and self-evident. This is the internet, once it's out there, it's out there. Fuck everything about this. This is a HOBBY and the roots of fansubbing/scanlation are in...

    This Villainess Wants a Divorce!

    @Lxpiz Just have to ignore the ungrateful idiots, as hard as that may be. I can write you a filter for Stylus or Greasemonkey that auto-hides comments with keywords like that, if you want ;) Like, there was someone here saying it was a "long time" when it had been only 2 weeks... you just can't...

    Onii-chan Is Done For! - Vol. 3 Ch. 22.5 - EX Special - Mahiro and an Uneventful Holiday

    @ZdrytchX I didn't mean that they used both for the art, but that there are artists who work in either PS or Sai for the art, and regardless of what app is used for the drawing, they all pretty much use CSP for layout/editing. Although CSP art tools have gotten a lot better in the last decade...

    Choukadou Girl ⅙

    Doing a little wiki diving on Street Fighter, Subaru seems likely to be an homage to Ibuki from Street Fighter 3. Although I can't see any mention of her being OP, so that part is probably original to Subaru.
