As a quick reminder, this got licensed… by an AI manga translation startup
Normally I’d say to support the official release, and the author tweeted that they checked with Emaqi and they're using a human translator, but… I trust them as much as I can throw them
Emaqi is the app, Orange is the company. I cannot disclose my sources, but it is being translated by a human. It is however edited by non-native english speakers, and the translator has very little input on those edits.

I'm not even 100% against AI translations so long as they have a competent editors who are bilingual and can check for correct context and correct details. However, making assurances of that kind while also being an AI startup is sus as fuck. Also I could never support a company with such a garbage mascot.As a quick reminder, this got licensed… by an AI manga translation startup

that sounds like what webtoon may be doing w/ some of its translations & it ends up being somewhere between not great to outright incoherant and contradictory:/it is being translated by a human.

Yeah, and they're jealous. Take the W, dude.People are looking at us…!!
