Wow, this came out of nowhere and it looks absolutely impeccable. Thank you for your hard work 🙏
Are you planning on only rescanning Volume 1?

 

[DoDoDeDonDonburi]

Thank you! And unfortunately, I only plan to do the first volume since the following volumes by Ignition One, SDC, and JoJo Project are mostly solid and don't required the need to redo them as much as this first volume did. I hope you understand 🙇

Where can I find more volumes with the sfx translated as well. If there aren't, where did you get the english version that I can rescan myself

I translated and lettered the sound effects myself, they were not included in the original Japanese scans

Hey, I have a few questions. First, where did you find the Black and White Shueisha scans? I can find Viz JoJonium scans and Part 4 to 6 scans, but I havent found any of Shueishas online releases.

Thank you for the scans, the quality is amazing! I wish the whole SBR was like this.

Update 6/3/24: Hey sorry for the radio silence! Got incredibly busy this last year and didn't have the time to finish Volume 1. However, now do I not only finally have the time to complete the first volume, but I also plan to do future arcs and and volumes of Steel Ball Run. How exciting!

Additionally, the first three chapters are going to recieve a major facelift. I just recently finished revising this chapter including more dialogue rewrites, darker scans, several font changes, as well as some new high quality artwork scans. I hope that fans new and old of Steel Ball Run and JJBA enjoy the next upcoming releases.

Would you also please publish this on nyaa.si or on mega.io i am willing to contribute by hosting the files because alot of people are in need of a B&W scan for SBR, thank you kindly for your hard and tedious work.

Add me on discord if you're interested in the hosting "Pancres"

This looks incredible! The image quality is fantastic! Will the rest of Volume 1 be done soon?

Follow-up question: How did you upscale these? I'm wanting to be able to upscale manga for myself and I haven't found any good ways to do it.

He used 4x_eula_digimanga_bw_v1_nc1_307k for ERSGAN had some issues with gradient screentones on this model but thought it fit with Araki's art

and downscaled the pages to 1568x2475 for saving storage.

Read on page 51 on chapter 1.
