I fucking hate translators that can’t mind their own shit an censore or modifi crap were it ain‘t their buissnies in the first place, and it’s a shame that there aint any were i can read the manga“the character is 15 at the moment” fking schizo translation team fr, there was barely even anything to censor.
don't they generally censor everything "extreme" regardless of age?I fucking hate translators that can’t mind their own shit an censore or modifi crap were it ain‘t their buissnies in the first place, and it’s a shame that there aint any were i can read the manga
That makes it worse, if anything, no? Knowing their competency level and seeing them use it to alter someone else's art beyond the scope of a translation because they disagree with parts of it personally.You gotta admit, though, this group put a ton of effort into redrawing and lettering.
English Sfx seamlessly in almost every panel and never out of place.
I think that deserves a lot of respect. That’s not easy at all.
I’m pretty sure the censorship is so they can use Google ads services. This might be their way of putting food on the table—they get a standard of living and continue to provide us with content. It’s tough out there, who knows if they’re providing for family even?That makes it worse, if anything, no?

Very similar to the recent situation more people than usual became aware of regarding localizers doing stuff like that for anime dubs. There's people working on various things like this that don't respect the original creators or the fans of the works in question.
It's also amusing pirating something, but censoring it for moral or ethical reasoning? I feel like there's some interesting mental gymnastics that had to be pulled off to ever arrive at that situation.
The author created it the way it was, that speaks volumes about their take on how it should look according to them. Also, on the subject of speaking for someone else, where is this imaginary situation about the scan groups financial situation coming from? I didn't see that anywhere. What I did see was them putting notes in the chapter, calling it and the readers out for something that they seem to disagree with being published.I’m pretty sure the censorship is so they can use Google ads services.

I can’t judge them for trying to eke out a living. I’m just thankful I get to read this at all in English, since manga has a real positive effect on my life but I can’t read Japanese.
Unless the artist-sensei themself spoke up about their disapproval of censorship, are we in any position to speak for the sensei? Let’s just all get along ya know?

It's pretty simple if you ask me, wanna pirate something? Then do it. Just don't pretend you're justified in doing so because of x, y, or z. You did it because you wanted to, just like I read pirated stuff because I want to. Nobody in this situation is Robin Hood or something, we're all just petty thieves.
Similarly, if you find something objectional? Don't blatantly try to profit off it, then. That's just gross. There are thousands of manga going untranslated, whether officially or unofficially. They could pick literally anything that isn't sexualizing a 15 year old girl, but they did it anyway and then put on airs of being morally superior while doing it.
Also I refuse to get along with them, or you, for that matter. If anyone has a problem with me saying any of this here, they can just block me. That's what it's for. But if they get to censor someone else's art of their own accord, then I get to explain in excruciating detail why that should make them look like a bunch of hypocrites.
To be fair here, if it's pertaining to manhua specifically that is almost always going to be because China is a bit overkill on censorship themselves. Most scan groups wouldn't be able to find any manhua raws that weren't already like that, depending on how hard the higher ups have been coming down on people in the publisher's end of things at that time. It's so fuckin' inconsistent it's ridiculous, too. The same chapter of Martial Peak for instance can have super aggressive censorship all through out it, but random panels in that chapter just got none of it.Its shit censoring. Shit censoring done by shitbirds of a shitflock, randy. At the very LEAST its good they dont fuckin pour white-out on the cleavage like ManhuaFreak does when they censor shit (obligatory FUCK ManshitFreak) then again its kind of a really fucking low bar.
