Pissed

I'm honestly pissed. Just read the extra booklet and it contained all canon couples (at the time) except for Hatori x Chiaki. Why are people condamning Hatori over one act that never happened again!? -.-

    There is a extra booklet?

    Vol 3 chapter 7 or something like that, yeah. They scan group literally stated that they won't be translating the HatorixChiaki part of it because Hatori raped Chiaki once. Doing it once seems to be a death sentence or something -.-

    OMG I agree I thought it was only me... I dont get it!!! And they fucking made the decision without asking, I mean Im grateful they translated it, but im bummed out by the missing couple

    It's like, translate it all. Or shift it to someone who will, because 'moral' is not something that should stop a person or people who work as translators. How do you think that the people who have to translate the likes of "50 Shades of Grey" (10x times worse than that one 'rape' scene) feel??

    OMG me too. I was so pissed when I read the scan groups "moral declaration". My first thought was, "If you are fans of this mangaka, why would you pass such a frivolous decision onto her other fans? She chose to tell that story for a reason. Let her tell it. Who are you to decide what should and shouldn't be read by her other fans?" What is infinitely worse is that other groups are "not allowed" to touch "their" projects. This is an unwritten rule that some scan groups cling to and it pisses me off to no end. If they are taking their sweet time to update a manga and another group beats them to the punch, they get all butt hurt over it. Or in this case, another group wants to translate the missing parts, they claim that it is "their project" and throw a fit about another group "stealing" their project. Don't get me wrong, I don't think someone should post another person's work as their own, but if the group bought the manga; scanned it - or obtained scanned raws from their own source; translated it; typeset it; edited it and cleaned it themselves, they have just as much right to post it as anyone else.
    I'm not saying that all scan groups are bad - or any are, for that matter. I'm a huge fan of the work they do and have worked with a few groups myself. I just don't necessarily agree with some of the rules and tactics used against fellow scanlators. We are all fans here, can't we treat each other with a little kindness, understanding and respect - not to mention, realize that not everyone has the same "moral insecurities" that you have? Scanlations are supposed to be "for the fans, by the fans", they shouldn't be about anyone's ego.
    Sorry for the rant. ⁄(⁄ ⁄·⁄ω⁄·⁄ ⁄)⁄
