Have you read this yet?
Is it just me but i’m kinda getting bored at high school setting stories, like yeah they’re cute and giving lovey vibes but the mature stories (like working adults, normal life, etc.) they hit different
It’s being a rant atp so can anyone recommend me somethng like a mature story, not technically smut but something to do with their age being above 20
Do translation website that translates novels (especially kr/ch novel) allowed to get their translations paid?? I mean I know it’s from hard work but do they have permission to the original creator to get their story translated plus the profit will most likely be on the translator.
I’m just curious cuz there are a LOT of novel outside ridibook that are in “paid stories”
I can only speak about korean novels and no they do not get permission. A lot of times authors find them and the website has to take the story down for copyright and they mainly go after to those that profit from translations, because that's just wrong... Even worse when the translation is just mtl, lately it's popular translations with chat gpt/other AIs, so people are paying for shitty mtl translations and even more than what they would pay to buy the entire novel on ridibooks and use your personal mtl... Any type of piracy that you have to pay to read/watch are the worst
and I'm talking as someone who is in a team translation of webtoons as a raw provider and cleaner... yes it's a lot of work, time and money but we do it because we like it and we want to share the work with others. Just like we don't owe readers anything, they don't owe us anything either if people can and want to spend money it's better to spend it on the author's original work
I’m just upset that whenever a manhwa updates like after season 1 the uke’s are more twinkified like the fuck??? Can’t they just be constant in their character design and let the uke’s be looking like a proper adults and not a fucking child-looking people with their thin necks, legs, arms, why don’t they just draw a woman with a dick
I do feel proud that most of the style, design, and coloring improved but why do they have to twinkify the uke’s btw this is just my opinion and I don’t hate artist for their art and again I’m just upset they twinkify everything
Right?? Like I stopped reading BL manhwa because this. always. happen what the duck is *wrong* with the authors?? Are those the korean yaoi hands and chins??? And it's not even restricted to BL, look up the Lucia manhwa, I had to switch to the novel because the character's proportions became so ridiculous I could not take the story seriously anymore lol
(And yes there are amazing BL manhwa where this twinkification doesn't happen but it's like looking for consent *cough* sorry, a needle in a haystack!!)
I totally agree! It's always been a gripe of mine when that happens (sometimes it even happens while the first season is still ongoing!). And I get that sometimes it's an art-style thing (they can shift after all), but that's usually not the case because it never happens to the seme or other characters seen in the manhwa.
I've seen it so many times that I only ever look for BLs with more muscular (or at least mildly toned) uke's so I don't feel like I'm looking at some sort of shotacon's fantasy (and also because they're less likely to change the appearance of the uke without it looking completely out of place).
I’m just upset that whenever a novel have a manhws/manhua version most of them got diluted and plot goes down… AND IM TALKING ABOUT YOU “Continued love” TF IS THAT, THE WHOLE REUNION ARC WAS SOOOO DILUTED AND THE MC’s FEELINGS WERE TOTALLY DISREGARDED, HIS ENTIRE MONOLOGUE ABOUT HIS RELATIONSHIP WITH THE GENERAL WAS COMPLETELY DRAINED TO THE SINK!!

I’d rather read the novel version than read the downgraded plot of the same story

I wonder where I can find groups that do translations or cleaning of panels. I’m kind of interested
