Snipers suck. There's dozens of series out there that have been abandoned that need attention more than trying to weasel in on the translating of something that's getting currently worked on. And you'll get just as much attention if you snag something desirable that's been discarded with the added benefit that it doesn't make you look like an opportunistic douchebag.

But on point of the story: I like non-dressed-up Natsu better. This makes her look kind of like a generic romance protag. The wilder hair and her freckles give her character and distinctiveness.

But on the plus side, if the author's history is anything to go by she doesn't proscribe to the idea of constantly needing the women to be all dolled up. Asako in Sweat & Soap did herself up a few times for important functions but always went back to her "normal" look otherwise. I'm confident Natsu will be her normal self more often than not, especially if she's said it's a pain getting dressed up.

2+ does ottoman tho. They goated in my boat. Hope they can work together with old scan group
They literally went out of their way to snipe it from the other team. They didn't bother reaching out to the original group which is still regularly working on it. You gotta call out shitty behaviors even within the things/people you like.

And here I saw a new chapter and thought I'll have a nice time. Instead, I see that it's not a usual group, but a pair of 2 snipers, and I know for sure that the whole comment section will be full of snipedrama.

So why snipe ? Work on stuff that's been dropped instead.

pareto principle works even with fan translations. So you'll have 5 groups trying to translate a popular manga for views while half my mangadex list hasn't been touched in 6+ months.

That's the group link. there should be a block button there, similar to a user profile.

There's no real point in "reporting" because sniping isn't against any rules. That's why Mangadex doesn't "lock" a manga to a specific group. Imagine the drama if they did.

Yeah, feels bad. None of us own this nor are making money off it, TBH I don't really care who translates. Does make me feel bad when more niche stuff isn't touched while others argue to translate stuff like this. But I can't force people to translate what I want.

Also, on another tangent, I also do find it a tiny bit funny when every chapter has comments like "wow adult romances are so good". Glad people are finally discovering seinen lol. Or avoiding the "drama" tag at least (because yea, some people do like drama).

Snipes are bad, m’kay. Plus your shitty cleaning job got rid of her freckles. Fucking trash.

I don’t even think these are good snipers because how does “calm down” even make sense in the last panel? I guess maybe because the FL is in her homewear, but even then he’s probably seen her like that before and she’s fully clothed, it’s not revealing at all.
Gotta agree. Had to double read some stuff too. Also typo on "Strange"

why? first group released 1 chapter, after ~2 months the manga is locked to the group for ~ 6 months.

If a second group don't upload a chapter (within this period)
than the manga is locked to the first group for ~ 6 months.

and in this ~ 6 months, the first group could flag the manga as abandoned etc.
