Why 8 parts? Why not 16? Or 32? Or 64?
Yaa, this has gotten out of hand pretty quickly. Honestly- we're numerically speaking in the 16th chapter, everything started 4 years ago and we're still in the point where we don't know if it's closer to beginning or ending or what. Chopping each chapter to more and more pieces just not only fucks up all the immersion and the memory of what happened last time, but also story pacing and sense of what "chapter" really is. I mean if there are parts of chapter being released that means there actually IS entire chapter so why do that? For money? For views? For clicks? I thought we were past last mangadex drama about groups stealing titles from eachother.

Like get this- previous 7 updates are indicated as "2 months ago" and you could go "gee that's a lot". Sure, but given that some of them are "chapter" 15, and some of them 16 and we have those weird cutoffs I- for the love of me- couldn't remember literally anything. What's this fight about? Who is this loli he's fighting? What about that random pile of corpse near the end? Doesn't ring a damn bell. I had to go and re-read all previous "16 chapter" parts so that could make any sense. And at this point we'll have like chapter 20.94, because each release will have single pane and I'm sure as hell that even then we'll have to wait for them for months. This is bullshit at its finest.

The one who separated the chapters was the publisher, not the translator or anyone else at MangaDex.
Edit: Though I see that your post is from almost three months ago, so I guess you'd know by now.

I think one page per part would make the story even more impactful. Maybe even released weekly.
Haven't read it because I prefer reading the entire chapter in one go, but holy shit, 8 part for a chapter?
...is this the publisher's decision to release the chapter in 8 parts, or the translator's? what the eff dude.

Im really curious if this is the authors or publishers fault for how these chapters are getting so divided and puny

and probably some other people
Exhibit A:
https://mangadex.org/title/5137687f...magan-to-dangan-o-tsukatte-isekai-o-buchinuku
Break Through in Another World With Magical Eyes and Bullets!!

Look at ch.14
It's not the TL's fault at this if you read the ch.14.10 TL's end credit
