SHOULD WE EVEN DO CHAPTER 15...

I've been keeping up with Robin Hood Scans here and recently on tumblr and your goodwill and initiative :) I was honestly very grateful and touched you guys were willing to pick this up for free. That's so kind of you guys!! I think it's wrong for somebody to have stolen work and upload it without permission but hopefully (ideally) they'll stop here? If they had chapter 15 I'm sure they would have uploaded at once.

I really don't want all your efforts to have gone to waste that is not fair and I cannot stress how thankful I am that you guys went as far as to purchase to soft copies ahdkdjdjjajsj. I say carry on if you don't mind! I'm sure readers would rather appreciate a non-stolen version instead. :)

Actually, if you guys keep translating this work, it would be great. The other group translating this is a private group I think. This is one of my favorite works but it was ruined by the back and forth sabotage between the readers and scanlators. So if you guys don't pick this up, most of us won't get to read this since we have to jump through several hoops to read it and even then, someone posts the group's work on public sites and ruins it for everyone as it just makes the poor scan team more aggravated and take it out on everyone.

I understand their position on it but the whole thing is just kinda toxic. And I didn't want to deal with that just for one manga I like.

It really sucks that someone released the chapters without permission!
I was so happy and excited when I found out you guys would be picking this up.
Also I agree with everything yousayvoltron said.

The person who stolen the chapters and uploaded here only want to ruin this for everyone they don’t care about the manga, the history or the effort that the scanlations are putting to bring this for others, it’s really frustrating that one person is ruining this for everyone.

Ah please don't drop this! That was a mistake on someone's part but that doesn't mean we don't want it! OFCOURSE WE DO!

I am really sorry to hear that. There some people that don't want for this manga to be translate by othe group by doing sabotage, but please ignore them and we all gonna give our thanks to you. This manga is one of rare Shonen Ai where bring a lot of important topic regarding LGBT community and its relatable to a lot of people including me. You can count with your finger how many BL that have a realistic out look on Gay people. This manga is one of them. If you keep translating it, you will done a great service to entire community.

Also is just my suggestion. For certain manga like this one, its probably better to not annouce your progress report on scan. There is definitely certain group that watch your group Tumblr and try to sabotage your guys wonderful work at last minute. We all really hope you all guys keep translate the chapter 15 even if you don't report the progress online. You can even alaso upload your chapter 13 and 14 work to this site too. We dont care if it double post as long we know the person wo done it have good intention behind it. We really love your guys work for the series so please dont drop it.

PLEASE CONTINUE! WE WILL READ ALL YOUR RELEASE! YOUR EFFORTS WILL NOT BE FUTILE U R OUR SUNSHINE AND HOPE PLS. DONT BE GONE

Although we're not in the position to say much, I'd really be super duper happy if you guys were to continue scanlating it! It was a horrible half year of no uploads. I'd really appreciate it if we get to have consistent updates from a reliable team!!!!!!! Many thanks!!!!!!

Please don't drop it （/TДT)/

Yea please don't drop this. I think we would all go crazy if you did. We really need a team like you out there, I love all the work you guys do. If it's a problem then take it down and just upload your stuff, whoever uploaded this probably either wants to start drama or didn't know you guys were going to translate the rest since it's been awhile. WE NEED YOU GUYS so please don't give up. There are a few cracked eggs, don't mean the rest are bad. (●'◡'●)ﾉ

Ok, I don't honestly see why there is argument over this. I prefer your scans, but still don't see why anyone would need your permission to upload theirs, unless they stole them from you. There used to be NO ONE working on this, so it makes me rather glad that multiple groups are. Creates not only competition but also more guarantee / backup for the reader if one team decides to drop. I suppose it might be common courtesy to let you know so you can decide whether you want to continue if someone else picks it up but still just wanted to state my opinion.
Having said that, I'm super grateful. I love this manga and hope you don't drop it since this is the more stable group

You dont get anything. RHS didnt upload any of their scans. They had no time. The scans here are from the private group who didnt want to post publicy but someone leak them here and now they close their site. RHS bought 3 chapters, the last ones and was editing and translating them but now that 2 of them are out here they feel like they do it for nothing. And even if they work on the last one that isnt here what happen if someone leak it from the private group too? They was doing it to provide it for the rest of us that arent in the private group but with the leaking the two groups are angry and maybe stops from scaning for everyone at once. Ita kind of surrealist and stupid how human being is really. That leaker must have some serious issues in his self-steem.

No no please continue. I'll wait for your translations. Please don't stop please.

I'll wait for you guys, so please continue. Also it's a little suspicious that they were posted just as you said you were going to take it on as a project. So please continue don't get discouraged!

Wtf? Why do some of you guys attacking the other scanlation team? They’re private group, they scanlated this for themselves. There’s no sabotage whatsoever ugh. There’s just one fucktard uploaded their works here without permission and ruined for both of groups and readers.

Uhmm, i'm thankful if your group is willing to continue the scanlations. But usually a group do scans happily for their team specially and readers generally. So there's nothing like "we aren't needed". Even if there are more than one scanlations version out, you will have your own reader and so will the other group, you need no worry at all. If it's hard to decide between continue or drop, just talk itu out with your members, is doing it will let you guys be happy or not. If the members only feel the pressure to please the reader, i think it's wiser to drop it.

Hello!
Sorry it has taken us so long to reply to the comments on this thread. Just to clarify and clear the air on this huge misunderstanding, we aren't concerned about who's version is uploaded, of course in the case, it was the Anons private works that were uploaded here by a leaker even though she had explicitly stated that her scanlations were not to be posted publicly. Overall, we are happy that the public (fans who hadn't managed to gain access to her website) were able to read ch13/14. Our post about continuing was aimed at whether we should finish chap 15 or move onto another project, we don't mind doing chapter 15 and progress is well underway now but we do not want to be nearly done with the chapter and then a leaker leaks Anons hard work onto a public forum. Does this make sense? We are happy to finish Koi Mono and our members are working very hard to get the latest chap of this beautiful story to you but if there is going to be another leak then we would rather begin working on our other projects. This was the frustration we felt a few days ago, but I can assure that work is being done to complete ch15 and we hope you will stick around to see it!
There are more progress updates and posts with some important information at our tumblr

Thank you,
Robin Hood Scans

It's unfortunate that someone disrespected The Anon and uploaded her work. We hope the situation is resolved. We just want to work side-by-side in doing Koimonogatari and not against anyone.

Thank you for your support!
We do not want to insert ourselves into the scan world as the "competition group", we would rather just be a group that helps readers enjoy stories that have been underground. We hope you continue to support us and look forward to chapter 15!
