7 months since last chapter and only just now suddenly release right after another scanlator took matters into their own hands after such an extended time

 

[Gem-Bug]

LMAO it just takes someone else stepping up, huh?

 

[jeezits]

Or seeing such garbage is a motivator to show people what non-shit scanslation looks like, but speedscan piggies don't care about that I guess.

On the 15th of September it will have been 11 years fuck ALREADY!

Page 22, panel 3, Abel scans and the original (via Google translate): "Hello, we just boarded the Shinkansen / the train"
Page 23, panel 3, Akatsuki scans: "Good morning. I got to play a musical instrument"

Not quite right...

(Edited message to be less rude)

C'mon. The other one wasn't the best, but I'd hardly call it a "speedscan" when the previous chapter was translated... seven or so months ago, and the actual manga has gone three volumes ahead of it.

??? Is this a snipe?

7 months dude. 7 months without a chapter. Most would assume its up for grabs.

Still garbage then? Got it.

edit: If you can't even get the text in the balloons properly because you're using a phone and don't realize how oversized you've made the font? You shouldn't even be trying.

Look, Akatsuki certainly wins on the CL/RD and polish, but you can't call it a stellar translation. Someone already pointed out the bit where the boss lady texts "I got to play a musical instrument", there's other great bits like the word soup on page 9 ("Ah, your face is red, what should you do?" "Anyway, if it doesn't work this time it'll be no good!") or page 14 ("It's better not to work." "When did I become so lazy?"). And who is this "Yangoto Nakimanmo" person on page 6? That's meant to be a title/class of person, not some dude.
I get that their fonts are basic and all, but @UbelBlatt's TL feels a lot better like it was done by a native speaker. I'll take better TL/QC with sloppy CL/RD over the opposite any day.
And I don't mean this as a slight on Akatsuki, they've carried the series from the JUM days and I do appreciate it - but if they're picking it back up, please, please check your work little more.

I guess best outcome could you guys team up and make a super polished release together, like the various warring TL groups did after the drama on that boss + alcohol series? Please please please
