>Tfw finally free from the Scanlation scene

Sniping Kaguya from the other two groups.

We're picking up pic related from where the other group left off. I promise authenticity as a clarinet player.

Sometimes I get jealous that the popular series get all the attention then scanlation drama happens and I'm glad I only do shit no one cares about.

I normally only work on obscure manga too but the drama has ruined the threads so I might as well kill them off for good.

Currently editing a H-manga's chapter from 2005.

Best website to buy digital raws to rip?

No share raws
No serialization
No furi

= no faggots.

Since I discovered the formula, it's been drama-free living.

Got some motivation. I've been productive these last couple of days. It's fun working on series you really like

>No furi
?

Dealing with fonts

doit.

>that pic related
It hits a little too close to home mate.

Did Nejimaki Kagyuu kill another editor?

>mfw it's already 7am
>mfw i typesetted a tank the whole night

I've been trying to do a set number of pages a day so that I don't end up doing this and burning out

Furigana I gues.

...

Rip samples and check the quality between sites. Resolution depends on the publisher usually.

>EBJ
No public tool, the existing private script rips from the online viewer which degrades the quality slightly because of compression

>Sokuyomi/Renta
Avoid like a plague, I've never seen any raws above 1200px there (even for kadokawa stuff which is 1600px on other stores), both are online viewer only too

>Bookwalker
No tool, it's very in demand because it's like the only store that accepts paypal, their devs are a bunch of faggots who ban people for ripping and update whenever there;'s a tool out

>Kobo/Kindle
Both can be ripped with Calibre

>Neowing/Kinoppy
There is a tool but some books come in weird non-epub formats you can't extract images from

>Honto
Same as above

>cmoa
Not tool, there's some obscure format faggotry as well

Sounds like a fun idea. Let's throw everything into chaos.

I don't know if any of the Dagashi Kashi guys are online right now, but there's a mistake in your latest typesetted chapter. Kokonotsu refers to Hotaru as "Hotaru-chan" when he's never actually done that.

Meanwhile, here's the raw. You can clearly see him saying "ほたるさん" and "サヤちゃん" here.

>Rip samples and check the quality between sites.
You guys have a lot of disposable cash.

You know that most stores offer first 20 pages for free?

I'm up to translating loli rape porn, but I'll most likely put it on hold because a loli porn tank that I actually want to work on got scanned last night.

Are you for real, user?

Need a little help with clarification.

I'm new at this, and I just finished translating something. but the text boxes/bubbles containing the text are ALL transparent, is it considered "cleaning" when I'm trying to cover the japanese text by matching the transparent area surrounding it over top of it, or does that kind of thing have it's own term, need to know what its called before I can go about learning how to do it.

Cleaning and redrawing. I'll help you out and tell you that you will probably need to use the clone stamp tool.

Anyone got raws of chapter 11+ of this
mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=137779

???

>clone stamp tool.
Yeah so far that's what I've been doing, just taking forever...

But thank you.

Switch on the precise cursors in preferences (Edit > Preferences > Cursors) and then press capslock when using the clone stamp tool and the border around the brush will disappear making it easier to line up the pattern. You can also use a larger brush size. Right click to bring up the brush menu when using the clone stamp tool.

>work from 7:30 PM to 8AM redrawing
>refuse to do anymore the entire week
It feels fucking awful man

Got slightly less than two volumes left before I quit translation (a new volume is coming out soon but that can be done whenever) and still too lazy to go ahead and finish them. Doesn't help that I'm extremely slow in general.

I really wish I'd deal with it all this month but that's probably impossible.

Is there a link to Weekly Shounen Champion 1 which is available to us yet?

If not - guy from last week, remind me of from where you bought it.

You dameningen?

Wondering what's taking so long.

I don't imagine this is that Neeko manga?

You doing Holiday Yasumi?

Dropping this shit was such a good idea

Yes, it's up. With typo and everything

I'm impressed with myself, able to recognize that despite not even reading any of it (yet)!

Yes, and yes that's the tank, Holiday Yasumi's

Expected as much judging by your taste. Thanks for working on the tank, it's a great one.

>translate stuff about a guy turning into a girl and then becoming an idol
>suddenly Back Street Girls gets an anime
>now I can't release since it will look like I'm jumping on the TSF Idol bandwagon

I buy them from Rakuten. I plan on buying the latest issue in a few hours when I get home. I'll post the link here once I do, if the thread's still alive by then.

Alright, thank you.

I'd just remembered that I would need the ripper thing, and also that I don't understand how it works, anyway.

...

let's play another unsatisfying game of "piss off or trigger every member of a team at once"

Why? The text is clear, and there is nothing to redraw. The typesetter just has to do the whole page.

Any live TLs threads recently?

>there is nothing to redraw
what
did you also not notice the 533x800 part

It's just a black background with one gradient stripe in the midle. The rest is some ten different fonts of text. That's it.

Another invite for any typesetters
interested in bringing more of Ujiie Tozen's earlier works "Imouto wa Shishunki" or "Joshidaisei Kateikyoushi Hamanaka Ai" to the world, to visit the Wednesday morning Seitokai Yakuindomo (SYD) translation threads.

What for?

To check them out.

Best resolution for scans?

bigger is better, maybe shrink for release

Just curious, what drawing tablet do you use?

Bump.

800dpi

What are some good soundtracks (without insert songs) to listen while translating? I'm getting bored of my playlist.

Soundtracks for the Blind.

Thank you, dear friend.

I don't have it right here, but the cheapest Huion model I found on Amazon. It wasn't more than $30.

The very minimum is 300dpi at least and if you wanna go for high quality, 600dpi is usually the go to.

downloaded this out of curiosity, what is the second series that looks like it has Mitsudomoe's art styles?

It's a comedy manga called Rororro! by the Mitsudomoe author.

It's about a lonely girl who wants friends and a clumsy robot who does weird funny shit every chapter.

so it's her new series then. does it still have the dirty jokes?

Seems like just suck with my wacon then, any tips for brushes and stuff?

I see what looks like a delinquent series towards the end is it any good?
I'm reading at 4 of the series in there which is a pleasant surprise hadn't realised the mystery club one was from champion

Does anyone know how to get that shitty MangaOne app to show me all manga they have? I can't see anything besides the family friendly stuff. Their help pages aren't helping either, because I can't find anything about age limits or how to confirm that I'm older than 12.

Cut tendon in right hand, can't use mouse that well for possibly 2-3 months, practicing with my left is meh
typing is hard af but getting used to it.

I feel useless ;_;

get a tracker ball?

It's pretty well-received in Amazon.jp, but very underrated. From the little I've seen, it seems pretty entertaining.

Have the same problem.

Everything made by shogakukan sucks. I tried using a vpn, but that didn't help either.

>want to translate something
>don't feel like it because everyone involved in scanlation has the mental state of a 3-year-old
why does anyone sane even bother anymore? i don't think i've seen a single scanlator that doesn't whine like a fucking retard or lack the understanding of English that should be expected from an "English scanlator".

You're the only one in this thread kicking up shit.

The key to that sentence is "this thread".

There's nothing stopping you from bypassing the mental 3yos and scanlating something by yourself.

>Not charging per translation

It's like you wanna be a cuck.

find a series, download or buy super easy digital raws > remove text from bubbles type in your translation > upload to bato,to > done...

Not that guy but low end tablets can benefit from the smoothing of Lazy Nezumi.

Thanks for clearing that up, it was bugging me.

>EBJ
>the existing private script rips from the online viewer which degrades the quality slightly because of compression
Is it because of the script or because of EBJ?

The script of course.

Your phrasing implies those who don't whine like a retard have a splendid knowledge of the English language.

I don't know why you feel the need to single out the English here. There are just as many retards in the rest of the United Kingdom.

I feel you, I'll kill for a group that isn't composed of teens and manchildren.

I don't see anything in the script that compresses the image. It just dumps the image the EBJ sends to your browser.

There is not re-compression, then.

If any translator is open to a basically porn version of kemono friends I have most of the first volume cleaned and raws for the first 3 volumes. The first 5 chapters were translated and are on the nyaas. Has just about every fetish you might be into. I just need someone to translate it. mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=131145
