I’ve been seeing multiple titles say that desiree scans uses AI so I stopped reading their uploads but how exactly do we know that?
i might be wrong, but i actually tested it out by localizing a chapter once. when i compared it to desire scans', it was word-for-word the same. i don't think they even bothered to polish it or make it sound smooth (it happen for the other 2, but kaizen sometimes getting better, and probably the other 2 as well, idk
Without huge visual cues or the original text to compare, there's no way to be absolutely 100% sure – but, tbh, the first big clue here is they are not evn a scan group. They share even official uploads and offer digital currency; literally paid pirated content. There is no reason a scummy business like that WOULDN'T use AI for their translations.
Another big clue is when little to no SFX gets translated; especially when the font is rotated in any which way (or handwritten in any way - both make it harder for OCR). Localized SFX sometimes is hard to come up with, but an actual translator would know they matter enough that they can't simply be skipped altogether.
There's also a lack of care in the consistency in their that an actual long running scan group (at least big enough to have a site) would never show.
And all that being said, the usual thing you'd notice is weird phrasing. This one here is not that egregious, but if you could look at other uploads and see they hae highly different levels of quality, that's another tell. Sometimes you just get lucky with AI and things pass unnoticed, sometimes not. This is my first time seeing an upload from them tho so I can't speak on it much
I always thought it was weird that desiree would upload the chapters on multiple titles before other groups like kaizen and mythtoons. It was only recently that I genuinely noticed how there is absolutely ZERO translated SFX tbh now I wait for kaizen or mythtoons who actually bother. This is a good insight on the situation Im definitely with the crowd that says this is AI
I’m really getting into the pseudo-incest (like step siblings) genre I’m getting bored of the fluffy stuff does anyone know anything like this? ty!!

This title just came on my radar after seeing jaxx’s post about this title, so I immediately came here to see if someone uploaded it.
I’d like to ask for someone to educate me/explain how this was racist? was it the last line? I saw the mc free the workers calling them free people which made me confused on this.
I am NOT saying that this shouldn’t have been canceled especially after reading that last line but I feel like im missing something here, thank you!
EDIT I UNDERSTAND NOW: I just read the official synopsis of this title and yikes. Now I completely understand why everyone is saying it’s racist. the cowboy was not saying the last line sarcastically like I assumed:
“‘Me? I'm your humble slave, Master.’
*Claiming to be Gerald's slave*, Ezra constantly crosses boundaries and provokes him at every turn. Yet in the face of Ezra's relentless attention, Gerald's heart begins to race once more.”
I also didn’t realize that the workers were drawn without faces meanwhile the businessman (?) DID have a face. Not to mention the scene where he freed the slaves really did have some “white savior” vibes.
I believe it was sarcasm, but that still doesn’t negate the fact that it’s extremely inappropriate to say when “his people” are actively facing a genocide and enslavement. It’s extremely tone deaf. Do you think a Korean woman would joke about calling herself a comfort woman to a Japanese Imperialist soldier? I think not…
It is definitely tone deaf. Im unfortunately used to poc making self deprecating jokes about the terrible things their people are going through (I am guilty of this) so originally just brushed it off as a gross one liner. I read the synopsis and it became clear that its way more than that and he literally labels himself as his slave. So ashamed of jaxx











Bloomingdale is literally posting what lezhin has on it’s site
That's what alot of people do
