Not everything in life is free. You expect that they put work and their own money into something you can read for free and when they don't you get mad. How is that fair ?

Scanlatiors: "Please help us if you can, this stuff costs money"

Normal people: "I will help if I can"

Some people: "How dare you ask for support, and say you can't afford the costs! I demand you spend your time and money to entertain me!"


It's a free service ya'll, if you don't like the quality or group just don't partake. Be supportive, give constructive feedback, and be thankful for the free entertainment. I hope that new scan site works out!

Scannies asking for money is bad enough, but begging for it when the pages are so low quality? 😆😆😆.

Regarding the resolution, I am with you, but I think I figured out why that is.

In terms of "begging", I don't get why people call it that. We DON'T BEG for money, we want to FUND the chapters. If you do not want to, that's fine, but we have the same opinion : raws are expensive if they need to be bought, and why should we pay for them from our money and then provide the content for free ?

Other story with the free raws, we do them because we like the story and doing the TL, there, people CAN tip our service IF they want to.

Note: those who do not like this idea,
you can always translate them yourselves.


THIS IS OUR FINAL STATEMENT REGARDING THIS MATTER

Man y'all are some haters fr wtf only one guy provided constructive criticism while the rest of you are just shitting on the translation team.
There is a big difference between asking, even begging for donations, and the bs they tried here which is not acceptable. You don’t threaten to hold a series hostage if you don’t get donations, and doing so deserves all the hate possible.

Again, asking or even begging for donation and support is acceptable. Holding a series hostage and saying you won’t continue unless people donate is scumbag behavior and never accepted in the community.

Are you actually trying to normalize TL’s holding series hostage if they don’t get donations?

If you can’t afford to TL, then don’t, drop the series and let someone else pick it up. If your TL is so low quality that people don’t want to donate and support, then improve the quality or stop doing it.

TL’ing isn’t a business, it’s a hobby people choose to engage in.

Is a False Analogy. A manga chapter isn't a unique individual or object that cannot be be easily replaced if at all, and their reluctance to scanlate more of it dose not remove the ability to do so.

Is a False Dilemma. Them doping the series is not a requirement for a new group to pick it up. While "sniping" is usually looked down upon, There are no rules under the site rules that prohibits multiple groups working on the same manga, so the group asking for the financial burden to be covered in exchange for their unpayed labor dose not prevent other form picking up the manga.

Agreed, so it would be ill mannered act like its a second job to them and that we are owed a product

We are not holding this series, if others are to pick it up then that is fine. This is a hobby and not a job to us. Also, we have never intended to hold this series hostage. The translator use their own MONEY to fund this series up until chapter 7 to the point that they are not able to to do so. Perhaps the wording in which it was stated at the first manga page made you think that we are holding this manga "hostage" but it isn't.

But nonetheless, thank you for staying to read the translation we provided. We do hope to get more feedbacks from others so we could improve on our work.

Uh-huh

Yes, that's how TL'ing works. If you want to TL something you use your money if you can't find free raws, support it through a website with ads, or find someone who commissions it. Then you put out a quality product and people donate if they want to. If you can't afford it, you don't do it.

"That's why we have decided to only translate when the next chapter has been funded."

Was your statement in the chapter, and there is no way to interpret that other than attempting to hold the chapter hostage until people give you money. It's 100% treating it as a job and not a hobby, and your attempts to weasel your way out of it and pretend it's somehow perfectly normal behavior is ridiculous. No other TL groups act like this, and if they did they also would get rightly called out by the community. To try to act like this while putting out such a mediocre product as well is even more insane.

So stop with the excuses and attempts at misdirection, and just be better.
