I discussed this in the other thread that I linked at the top of this thread because someone brought it up there, too, but I'll mention it again here. The historical tag definition on that doc describes it as an antiquated era on Earth - and as such would not include fictional countries that...

Does anyone have a backup of the defunct Crunchyroll translation? It'd be super useful/nice to have, I think... especially since I can't find translations for anything but the light novel, now.

I like historical fiction, and think East Asian media's takes on Western history are fun, so I was searching through the "historical" tag to see if there was anything interesting to read or maybe add to my group translation list for the future. Unfortunately, in the tag's current state, it's...

I've added it to the "unsure" list, because I think it may fall into a similar category as Gunka no Baltzar, which I'm also not sure about. Also, I'm adding my list to a new thread in the "suggestions" section - we'll see what comes of it.

I've begun a list of the comics I don't think ought to have the tag - you can find it here. It's free for anyone to edit and add things to. Let me know if I ought to post this doc and some of my explanations as its own thread in a different area of the forums.

It says “on Earth”, though - I would think in this case that “not necessarily real world history” is meant to include things like Dororo having demons. Dororo’s still in the Sengoku period on Earth; Villains Are Destined to Die isn’t. If that isn’t what they mean, then that ought to be clarified...

That’s what I’ve been doing for the others, yup - I was just worried abo it these since they aren’t directly based on Vocaloid versions of the songs and are based on things that have relationships with Vocaloid. But if it’s fine to give Love Calendar, the MILGRAM stuff, and the Black Rock...

Oh no, I mean that the manga themselves are officially licensed Vocaloid projects, not doujinshi. This is about the manga themselves, not the translations.

I think narrowing it to the ones that don't deserve it might be faster?? It depends on how much there is of either. Those three I linked, as well as the ones I linked that don't qualify and a few more I can probably dig up would qualify - where should the list be made so that people can...

@UnnamedPlayer I think in terms of fantasy/isekai it probably depends on the situation? For example, even though Dororo has demons and whatnot, its explicit Sengoku-era setting means it's still something I'd qualify as worthy of the historical tag - it's just historical fantasy. (JoJo, too, is...

So, the historical tag. It has problems in how it’s applied. Specifically, it is often applied to comics that are not actually historical (particularly “vaguely-fake-European settings”), thus clogging up the tag for people searching for actual historical manga, and making it incredibly...

@Bartolumiu Thank you, that was helpful information I had not seen before! However, the Vocaloid manga I was referring to are officially licensed and published pieces, not doujinshi - the aforementioned Love Calendar being an example. So I was wondering if Love Calendar and the MILGRAM manga...

Hello there! So there are a lot of manga adaptations of Vocaloid songs out there, and I noticed there's not really an easy way to search for them, since if you search "vocaloid" only a small percentage of the manga based on Vocaloid songs comes up. I eventually realized that was because people...

Not the guy using "-kun" in a vaguely-European setting... why did the translators keep that 😭 Anyway, the concept had potential but the coercion and the extremely rushed attempts at romance turned me off... someday there will be good WWI-ish yaoi out there...

@vlotusan Yup, that sure is Miku! For some reason not all of the manga based on Vocaloid songs say so - I've just finished adding "VOCALOID" in the title section of all the Vocaloid manga I could think of, in the hope that it'll come up in searches/be more obvious to people when they take a look...

@glad-barfs Oh man, I'm so sorry, I didn't even notice - I just took this from the JManga backup that was linked in the forum section of the JManga (Ex-Licenses) page, and the parts I'd glanced over initially looked fine so I didn't notice the potential missing pages. I'm trying to leave a...
