Hello good people out there,
For the past few days, I've been struggling to decide whether or not to translate a shounen ai manhua and upload it to mangago to share with the community. I am a native Chinese speaker and I have a lot of artistic experience, so that is not the issue. However, I am hesitant because I know there's a lot of controversy about the legality of doing this. So, I have a few questions:
How do you upload a manga onto mangago if it doesn't already have a page?
What are the potential consequences of translating a manga for this site?
Do you think that I would be more safe since I'm translating a manhua?

Thanks!

    Yeah, Unless there’s a team that’s already translating it, I usually hear no problems. Only Korean author usually step up for translating their works without permission if I’m right

    I'm also curious to know what manhua youre translating ^^ But as stated by the person above, any form of fan translation ar actually illegal. Though, because a lot of people can't have access to most mangas/webtoons etc, fan translation is the only choice they have. Compared to mangas and manhuas, korean webtoons are usually even more risky though, perhaps because the authors are active on twitter or other social media so it's easy for them to notice things like this. But for mangas and manhuas, scanlation teams rarely have any problem.

    3. To tell you the truth, translating a manhwa is not "safer" since it is still illegal. You dont have direct and legal permission (aka contract) from the author to translate his/her work. And even if you do (a possibility) the work you translated will still only be uploaded in the official sites

    Idk why my reply keeps getting removed (?)

    2. This site is technically an illegal since it pirates mangas/manhwas. The original author or official company hosting the manga can take legal actions to both the site and the person who added it. However, I believe the site will take more damage than the person.

    After reading everything on this question, I've decided to take the risk and translate 娱乐圈上位指南! It is like the yaoi version of A Star Reborn: The Queen's Return. Another similar manga would be the Film Emperor's Reincarnation Script. Unfortunately, the difference is that it doesn't have rebirth.

    I only translated once, which is Hanikamu Honey. But its too much effort for me lol so i joined a scanlation group. Other than that, im also uploading manhwas, like Psycho by Young Dream (which is already completed), Dragon & Basement (on going), and Best Actor's Life Take Two (also completed)

So I have seen lightsaber dicks, invisible dicks, and black bars in yaoi manga. But I have never seen black circles before, like what happened here: http://www.mangago.me/read-manga/sokonashi_freefall_romance/an/sokonashi-freefall-romance-chapter-6.html/11/. It's so weird, especially in the last panel. I can't stop thinking about it. Have you guys encountered any other strangely censored mangas?

    I remember reading a manga(?) where the dicks were cover with the eggplant emoji. Ugh i cant it was horribly censored i dropped it

Hi everyone,
Hope your day has been going well. With the coronavirus forcing me to stay home, I've found myself with a lot of time on my hands. I'm planning on marathoning through the 300 mangas in my Already Read section. So, I thought that I'd add some descriptions and sort the mangas into lists. Does anyone know if there is a limit to how many lists you can make, like there is a limit for how many mangas can be in a list? Thanks in advance!

    スージン March 31, 2020 4:26 am

    Ohhhh we planned on doing the same thing! I wanted to reorganize my tags and all. But ill do it after im done reading the mangas in my bookmarks, to read list and 68 opened tabs

    silentkira March 31, 2020 6:56 am

    I think there's no list limit. But each list can only hold up to 200 manga

Hello,
I'm looking for shounen mangas with no romance. But I'd also like to see a male mc who is a serial killer/psychopath/just plain badass. It would be amazing if the mc is the only one insane (so not Danganronpa, Assassination Classroom, etc.). Here are some references if you don't understand what I'm talking about:
Funouhan --> mc is an assassin who creates perfect crimes through hypnotism
Akumetsu --> mc kills famous people to make a better world
Void --> mc is super cool and takes away people's powers

    Thanks! I've already read this one, but I have to agree that the mc is the most insane psycho out there!

    Yay! ٩(๑❛ᴗ❛๑)۶ I'm glad you're looking forward to it! I hope you like it! For a simple badass fighter type character, I also liked Boss in School http://www.mangago.me/read-manga/boss_in_school/

    Also, for characters who are killers, hmm, I started a list on my page that includes some of the things I've read that fit that characterization (I tried to keep it to MCs who are killers). You made me realize I've read a lot of these types of stories (but am mostly left disappointed). Still, they may prove to be a good jumping off point. I hope it helps!

    Nice list! Dendrobates is awesome so far. Also, I love how you included An Uncomfortable Truth at the end. The entire time I was reading that webtoon, I thought it was yaoi :/
    Anyways, it's hard being a really really picky reader. For me, I only like when the guy (mc) is a bad*ass serial killer who works alone and has the police scrambling.
    From what I can see in your list, you should try Gorgon: http://www.mangago.me/read-manga/gorgon/. I dropped this one since even though the mc had the power to kill everyone, he was too wimpy and too much of a hero for me. Also the antagonist was a killer too.
    And if you want to take a break from all the killing, but still want to read about a bad*ss mc, try Zennou no Noa and Void.
    Here are some psychological mangas about killers (from what I can tell, haven't tried reading these because I'm picky :D):
    Destroy and Revolution: http://www.mangago.me/read-manga/destroy_and_revolution/
    Terror Man: http://www.mangago.me/read-manga/terror_man/ (IDK if he actually kills, but he's a terrorist so...)

    Nyamh March 28, 2020 10:08 pm

    Ugh, I'm also picky. I have suuuuuccchhhh a soft spot for OP characters LOL. And yeah, the reason why I like Dendrobates so much is because he works alone and keeps EVERYONE scrambling! Love him so much.

    In both stories and real life, I loathe wimps, whiners, emotional weaklings, and the action stunted. Pain is pain and all that (it's hard for everyone), but at the same time, if a person stays under such a thing and attaches themselves to a victim mentality, then it's nigh impossible to get over the pain.

    I also felt like The Uncomfortable Truth was totes a yaoi lol! It was an odd back and forth; in the end, I decided that it was practically within the LGBT spectrum (in an unhealthy way lol)...after all, romantic love doesn't have to be sexual :)

    Thank you very much for the recs! I'll check them out. Currently, I'm reading Akumetsu, which you also recommended (^_^) I'd started Terror Man at one point...but he was angsty for no real reason, inflexible, whiney, emotionally passive/avoidant, and all too annoying lol. I also started Jagaaaaaan last night...I still don't know what I think.

Hi guys,
So the manhwa My Beast has been my favorite straight manga for a long time. Can anyone recommend a similar manga with possessive/obsessive male lead (preferably rich) and a female lead who doesn't fall in love quickly and whose heart doesn't go "doki doki" or "ba-dump" all the time?
