they're late, not even up to date, and sniping a project that someone's been working really hard on by themselves (and doing exceedingly well at) by a group who hasn't even touched this manga before, just leave this one be fellas

Best part is that first chapter from xKs wasn't 'remade'. Neither the three before, ones that were done after almost a half of year break.

If you jump in, why from 105 specifically? :notlikethis:

seems like some people don’t read at other ‘web’ platform huh

fyi, Cutiescans is there to replace the upload job from previous scanlator team (which got sniped in this platform and decided to drop the tl project in their list). and since none of new scanlator team from this platform uploading their tl works at that ‘web’. hence Cutiescans decided to upload their works too in this platform.

Nothing is wrong to upload from 105, they just continued the previous scanlator team update, and the quality is still good too. but it’s up to u guys if you wanna read from this scanlator or the current scanlator who have reached more chapters. i’ll stick with Cutie since i’ve read some of their works in the past.

edit: to not make u confuse why they upload from 105 instead of 101 (which where Cyan left off), chapter 101-103 of Cyan's tl work got taken down in this platform (which we don't know why after someone took their work), and since those chapters also have been re-uploaded for few times and Cyan have uploaded those chapters on other platform. they decided to continue from 105 which the Cyan team have decided to leave it be.

So....
What's the point of those uploads?

A) Having back up translations is good incase a group removes their work
B) It made them happy
C) Scanlation groups owe us nothing, be thankful for what they give us for free

well yes there are alot of them, but in this case it's because of the uploading work between this platform and other platform (which the most well known place to read GL manga), which is the newest scanlator after Cyan doesn't upload their work at that other platform, so Cutie had to do it on both platforms. this just based on my observation since i read on both platforms and usually read the forum too

idk i mainly use mangadex because for me it's by far the best to discover new manga that i have never heard of (and basically the best on everything i can think of)

You keep on saying "other platform", but never naming it.

Also the grammar is kinda wonky so not sure if I got you right... Do you mean that this TL continued from an old translators last chapter, because current translator is uploading only to MD (or at least not to whichever site you reference) so this TL wasn't aware and accidentally translated 10 duplicate chapters? And then noticed but decided to upload anyway because "why not" +

Man, using quotes in a sentence makes for weird linebreaks xD

understandable since i also mainly use mangadex because it's easy to arrange my fav manga. but if it's for GL manga only site with dedicated forum, there's one and that one is what i've mentioned as "other platform"

first of all, sorry if my grammar is bad, english isn't my mother language.
second, i keep saying "other platform" because if i mention its name i afraid it'll cause displeasure for the other party. but if you want to know the name, i can give you one, though actually you can easily search for it on internet by yourself. (and the hint is on above)
and yeah, that's what i mean. but it doesn't mean they aren't aware of other scanlator work. both have their own good quality. well, even if Cutie did late upload for duplicate chapters, they haven't reached the latest chapter aren't they? so just chill for now.

It's in especially poor taste when looking at the rest of the situation.
This group originates fom a site with a somewhat elitist/snobby reputation. The previous group refused to post on MD, and that's why we got our own TL in the first place. When our xKs started putting out chapters here, there were a lot of comments there calling the quality bad and not good enough to post to their site (as if xKs has even shown interest in that, anyway). That's when this new group started working on the chapters on said site.

The fact that they suddenly post here, after their own supporters shat on the translations we have, comes across as insulting.

i'm not trying to defend the new scanlator nor the other site. but did all of them even say that like xKs's work is bad? i only remember if someone questioning their tl's quality at first (and ofc it'd happen to anyone with first time picking a manga tl project), then as the time has passed, people there started to discuss the next chapters that has been tl-ed by xKs as if it's just like usual talking on forum (even though the chapter on that site still haven't caught up).

so i don't think everyone there on that site shat on the tl work by xKs. it's just you guys who being sensitive while xKs also doesn't have problem with other scanlator team uploading their work in MD.

There was still the general air of treating it like the lesser product and "this isn't good enough for our site".
(And, once again, it's rude to just assume someone would even want to be added there. Very conceited.)

The Chads member had a mini tantrum, but lol ok. :pacman:

I actually think it can be nice having some selection when I read a manga. I get to pick and choose my favorite, and see different takes on the TL.
But in this case there's already this iffy history where they've acted like xKs's work wasn't good enough—plus they're affiliated with Chads, who're known for refusing to have their work hosted on MD—before suddenly turning around and posting here after all that. So YES, it's gonna come across as this new group thinking of themselves as superior and wanting to snipe the project.

xKs deserves the world. This is a single person translating, redrawing, and typesetting 27 chapters/330+ pages in 20 days, and doing a damn good job at it too. We wouldn't even be close to caught up with the chapters now if not for their work alone.
So you BET I'm gonna stick up for that.

that's only some people since not all of them assume xKs tl work is bad. the tl work of this manga might never be updated at that site, but it doesn't mean they don't accept xKs tl work. some people on there also read both ver, so generalizing the whole people on that site as bad also don't right either. i do bet if xKs gonna pick another project, they'll accept this one-man tl work.

there's a suggestion thread in MD forum, you can give it a try to make suggestion about it. it could be a nice feature if MD decided to implement filter to choose the group work on you fav manga.

well, if you act like xKs who doesn't even care about other uploading their work in this site i bet you'll have nothing to worry about all of it. after all, MD is a site where multiple scanlators can upload their works, and since the tl chapter still haven't caught up with xKs's latest translation, it's still far from snipe the project. snipe someone's project is when they suddenly released the newest chapter where the previous scanlator left it, and this scanlator haven't done that too. (you can take example from Bocchi the Rock manga, where there are alot of new people who trying to snipe previous scanlator who currently in work for the project with uploading the newer chapters.)

also, i appreciate your support for xKs. they really did good job indeed for caught up with all of those chapters. and ofc you're free to keep stick up with their tl project. but act harshly toward other scanlator who actually also did good job and still haven't sniped someone's project also bad, your act might affect xKs's reputation too as their supporter. after all you're free to choose which group tl to read, so just stick with that.

FYI, as a member of Cuetie Scans myself, you should know that we're working on this for Dynasty Scans, which is a site this person doesn't upload to. It's getting cross-posted to Mangadex by the person who handles that for everything on the site and has nothing to do with us. Feel free to read whatever version you want, it's not like we make any money off of this anyway. I also think I'm about the only person in the group who even reads MD comments lol

It's a big group, churning out chaptersquickly enough to catch up very soon, against a single person working independently. If they want to snipe after catching up, they can probably manage that just due to the advantage they'd have. I'm skeptical that this isn't their intention here, but I'll give them the benefit of the doubt for you, I suppose.
