I was like, who the hell is that beardless guy? But I gotta admit he cleans up pretty good.

Good riddance to the punk. He wont do well in alternate-reality contemporary-Edo Japan with that work ethic.

Everyone has been staying at home because of the COVID19 which makes my shitty internet even more shitty than usual so let me say something that always bothered me about this scanlation.
The images are too fucking big.
3k by 5k .pngs? What the hell is this, forensics lab? The first page of this chapter is over seven megabytes. Halve the size, save as a .jpg and it's one megabyte. Seven times less. And don't "muh lossless" me about it. You literally cannot see the difference, especially in default mangadex reader which shrinks the image anyway.

@BCS When I want to watch a movie, I download the complete Bluray and remux it myself. When I listen to music, it's in a number of lossless formats from TAK to FLAC. And since I love to zoom in infinitly far on manga I set the resolution so high. So yeah, I'm "muh losslessing" you.
I don't wanna have an argument about lossless formats, since what it comes down to is personal preference. You don't need to tell me it's unpractical and that, at least when it comes to the music, it's largely placebo. I just want to have the peace of mind that no nuance could possibly be lost due to encoding and that's why I personally prefer lossless and high-res stuff. And what I prefer is kinda what is key here, no? Because as far as I am concerned I started this series out of a personal preference for starting it and I could also have the personal preference to drop this series, right?
That said and with with all that cockyness out of the way (I'm sorry, I just love being cocky to people sometimes plus you started^^) you absolutely have a point. Nothing stopss me from keeping the high-res images on my harddrive to myself and uploading lossy jpegs in lower res for web-optimization. Though I don't know about halfing the resolution, there's definitely something that can be done for you and others starting with the next chapter.
