Yo!

Bludshock sounded like bloodshot to me - eyes turn red and sore due to spending too much time cleaning or whatever!

Few questions -
-What is your favourite shonen series?
-Which is the easiest series to scanlate?
- Do you read any seinen? Which ones?
-If you are deserted on an island, what is the one thing you'll bring with you?

And thanks for your scans so far, I hope you know you have your own Edited Manga board here too.

I just came here to say thank you and I really appreciate your work

Hey that's good, I should use that to explain it to people XD.

Few questions -

-If you are deserted on an island, what is the one thing you'll bring with you?

My favourite shonen series is D.Gray-Man. The current arc is really good and im in love with the art style.

I'll break the next question into a few points for fun,

- The easiest: Bleach and Naruto. They use overlay text sparingly (usually only on the 1st/last page). They both get awesome raws (<3 kylara high res raws) and super fast translations.
- The hardest: D.Gray-Man. Most of the pages have a ton of grays and there's usually a lot of overlay text / redrawing / cloning involved.
- The most annoying: One Piece. The only series that can make my hand go numb from typesetting. Just look at chapter 458... I think most pages had 9+ bubbles of text.

For Seinen, I currently read Gantz & xxxHolic, I've also read a bit of Elfen Lied & Hellsing.

If I was deserted on an island and I could bring anything, I'd bring a Yacht, and try to navigate myself back home.

xxxHOLIC ftw!

So what made you read xxxHOLIC? Was it TRC or the manga itself?

 

[bludshock]

It was TRC. I caught the first few eps of the anime a couple years ago, and checked out the manga. After awhile I heard about the parallels with xxxHolic and that peaked my interest, so I started reading it too

Sup,

I remember on your site that people were able to comment on whatever manga they downloaded and say thanks. What happened to that?

What does the future hold for your site?

I appreciate your work and exposing me to other legit manga sites. Hope for more timely scans from you in the long run...

 

[bludshock]

j0ka,
Some people were abusing it to beg for releases and it was getting annoying. I know that people appreciate the Edited Mangas and they're free to post their thanks here on my chapter threads, or in an email to me, or however other means they choose.

As far as the future of the site, there are big plans, but you guys will see soon enough
