Looking at the raws, his name is "ラグナ" = "Ragna." On the other hand "Ragnar" would have been "ラグナー." Why should we name him differently from how the author intended?Dear translators of this version,
Please consider translating his name as 'Ragnar' or 'Ragnarr' instead. 'Ragna' is the female form of that name, and the MC is presented as a cis male.
'Ragnar' is modern, 'Ragnarr' more historical.
I am aware that doesn't fit 100% with the Japanese, but it is close enough and it is more important to be immersive than faithful, in my humble opinion.
might as well ask arcsys to retranslate their blazblue protag name, ragna to ragnar(r) tooDear translators of this version,

Lmao, that was exactly what I thought of. Like, are you gonna petition them to make it "Ragnar the Bloodedge"?might as well ask arcsys to retranslate their blazblue protag name, ragna to ragnar(r) too
I skimmed the whole thread. I feel like no one was talking about typesetting. Is typesetting dead? It genuinely upsets me when people use sans serif for comics, but it seems like people are accepting it. Sigh, why are they bickering over nothing instead of supporting this group to increase scanlation quality?Often what resulted is that people would read the QnD slop then pick up the better quality stuff to archive. Which actually had analogues to the fansubbing side of things where some group did barely passable subs but were out an hour or two after the airing, while other more reputable groups got their nicely TL'd, edited, typesetted and well encoded releases half a day to a day later.
