i think it’s more disrespectful to drop a work and then pick it up again as soon as someone else does
That isn't what happened. If you read the credits page, you'd realize that I'm
not Scienceygirl, who was scanlating this series before, also under the Scienceyscans group. After it was dropped by her, I planned to learn how to scanlate and eventually did so, which led to me putting out 7.1.
I will admit that the lackluster work done on the chapters by the other scanlator was a motivating factor in me picking it up as my first series, but I'd been wanting to do it for weeks before they did.
Once again, Scienceyscans is a group and not an individual. I'm just another member who joined to pick up and work on this series. The other translator agreed to drop this series while they hone their skills on other releases, and they're even being personally taught as well. There's no drama or ill intent here.
