Sheesh people b*tching about a single guy doing 1 chapter.
When the CONCERNED people aren't even saying anything.
Unless your not from Meraki scans that translates this manga, just shut the f*ck up.
Merakiscans people are the only ones who got the right to complain if they want to.
meraki will still release their version of the chapter the guy is not that ungrateful to meraki.

Now I understand what future trolls feel like. So tempted to just grab chapter 40, put some plausible text in the bubbles, upload it and then grab some popcorn. ?

@Mitsuboshi Joining a translation group after just being bored and translating a thing seems like the worlds most nonsensical thing.

I'd just like to note that you lot are absolutely disgusting and 10 times worse than the apparent heresy that Swim_north has committed. Seriously, what is wrong with you people?

Sigh... this is such poor taste. Of all the series you could have sniped you choose the one that's released daily with great quality.

Meh, regardless of this, simply because the main translator: Andy - knows the novel and has been translating from the start, he understands the context and overall characters better.

Because of this he's able to give them a better representation of their personality using speech types such as uwu's for Pram and wowe's for other characters (amongst other examples)

These give a better overall feel to the dialogue and the characters, not to mention meraki's been using the fonts i picked for this series at the start which makes it more consistent and easier to read.

Good chapter overall if it was a standalone chapter, but i'll still read meraki's version since regardless of this snipe meraki will keep going faster nevertheless even if this sniper got the chapter done ahead of time since they snipped over the previous chapter and got 40 done and waited for 39 to be released meaning it had no schedule nor urgency.

Can't wait for 7 more chapters every week
aka 2-4 hours per day
aka avg of 21 hours per week
aka avg of 84 hours per month of work being put into this series meraki!
Thanks @merakiscans

To complete my post bellow, this is also obviously not a random reader that decided to scanlate it

In scanlation groups create new identities to snipe to fuck with people they don't like because of maybe the delay.

In this case I believe there was a translator that recently left meraki and insulted them harshly for nearly no reason that I can understand.

After this snipe I was told that same translator which has no experience in editing but had experience in scanlation as a translation went back into their discord.

This for me is a good indicator that it was that person doing it out of distaste for the group, but to be honest I don't believe this person will easily continue to do so since it's a lot of time for one person alone.

The fact that the translation even though not perfect or as good as andy's yet being fairly accurate while the editing itself is subpar to say the least for several reasons - which I won't list so that you don't get bored - shows me that they've had experience before in translation and saw how editing works but never really edited.

My conclusion is: take the sniper's words with a grain of salt as it's most likely just a butthurt old translator doing this out of spite for the group and will most likely give up soon nevertheless, even if he doesn't, it doesn't really harm meraki that much, people will still keep reading most chapters in their website since it's the best quality.

Say what you want but at least the grammar in this guys chapter isn't blindingly wrong, unlike in Meraki Scans one. "Those rock hard bread" 10/10.

Not to mention the image quality is better since meraki runs it throught certain softwares to fix pixelated images and the compression the owner of the comic puts it through on the official korean website.

And regarding that, when you're doing daily chapters for several series releasing more chapters on average than 10+ normal regular speed groups it's obvious some mistakes might pop up sometimes, that's why meraki has a discord where you can submit mistakes and they will fix them. @beepboop1

And regardless even though this chapter obviously took longer the editing is subpar, if someone actually wants all the reasons ping me and I'll list them all.

The sniper can also just dm me and i'll tell him everything he did wrong so he can fix it if he wants. Although I don't believe a sniper will actually want to fix any mistakes unlike meraki does.

Just through a breeze read I found over 80 editing mistakes that actually took me out of the story. (which is fine, just subpar in comparison)

Half the comments: Well put explainations on why sniping is bad.
The other half: "Lmao stfu who cares who does it its free."
And lets not forget the best comment around by @flanman "Lmao neckbeards acting as if there is honor amoung translating stolen content."
If Meraki stops translating this because of all this sniping and drama nonsense, ya'll gonna start caring real fast.

They won't stop because they probably know that chances are: it's just a troll.
And btw, even if they release a couple of hours before meraki, meraki's is still higher quality and daily so people will regardless keep reading.
You have no idea how much traffic their website gets, FAR MORE than these series could ever get in mangadex, it's actually insane.
Readers overall trust meraki, since they follow a simple yet effective schedule for fast quality releases.
That's why there's actually not that many comments regarding this snipe from meraki fans, most of them don't even read here.

This chapter was released less than a couple of hours ago and it's already got those stats.
