Hi there. I'm the translator uploading ENNEAD right now.
In light of a recent comment made here, I've been debating on what to do moving forward.
One option is to release my versions a few days after the official English's release, which would end up being a weekly upload schedule. These versions will be like the ones I've been doing up until now—no SFX cleaning, simple typesetting, and watermarks.
The other option is to release every day, but to make the translations even more of a pain to read (i.e. not cleaning anything and just writing the translation next to the corresponding text, whiting out large amounts of the page so that only the translation and key panels can be seen, putting the translation over the original text and lowering the opacity of the text, etc)
Please comment on which option you guys would prefer. I don't really care either way.

I am fine with option A, clean translations but after the original release, we would stay fair with the author, although it would take about a year until we reach the current state of the raws.
P.S. this would be my personal opinion, it would be better to see what the others have say. And I wanted to thank you for your great work in translating them chapters! <3
I think option A is the best. afterall, I dont think rushing the story the story would be an help because it could create confusion so the first option seems like a better choice.
*any (my "y" ke doesnt really work... i would have to press reall hard for it work)
Option A please. Thanks for the translations btw
I agree with the rest. The A option seems to be the most fair one.
As always: thank you for the hard work!!!
i think option 1 is good, but i think you should still make some graphic alterations (like adding watermarks) so that it's be more disadvantageous to read the unofficial version over the official.
this way, people who just wanted to understand the story will get what they want, but people who are bothered by the alterations will have more incentive to buy the official version
this is just imo however. thanks for translating!
yeah 1st option is good, thank you again for doing this
I think I'll do just that if I go with the first option. Thanks for the suggestion.
As much as it hurts to say this (I'm so impatient to read new chapters) maybe first option is better because we don't want to rid author of profit. Thank you so much for your hard work!
Please upload it after the official release. It’s the only sensible thing to do.
sure that might be the case for you but others might not think it's worth buying if the unofficial releases are clean enough.
by making the unofficial versions a pain to read, it'll probably push more people who were originally complacent with the previous quality to just buy the official
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR TRANSLATING
First, I am deeply thankful that u took this manhwa♡. I'm really fine with anything,but please at least keep updating cause I love Egyptian gods! Thank u so much really, unfortunately I can't afford buying it
Thank u, stay healty
i also agree with option 1 about releasing a chapter weekly!
just curious are you translating the pg or mature version of ths?
Option A please!
Is that for English or Korean version?
I have already added the watermarks for Ch.19 (which will be released the Monday after Tappytoon's release), but I'll consider it for future chapters.
Ch.19's watermarks are pretty obnoxiously big. I might decrease the number of watermarks I add on a page or make it a little more transparent for the future.
The watermarked raws I have are the R19 version.
Tappytoon also has the R19 version available (only on Desktop/Mobile Browser, not the app)
First of all. Thank you so much for translating this, this is a beautiful webtoon and everyone needs to know about it. Also option A :)
I just want to say thank you for your hardwork!
Please continue to make watermarks on the comic. So that the people will be pushed to read the official one. As long as you don’t have watermarks over the bubble dialogues it’s fine to put a lot of them everywhere else.
You're not shitty, you're the shit
i'm okay with the watermarking. i'm buying the ofc teen version. so i'm just here for the mature version because dang conservative region will lock me up in jail if i read the mature version lol
Hi, I'm the shitty fan-translator for this series.
Someone just messaged me asking if they could upload the official English version here, and I told them to please NOT do that.
The reason why I'm making such shitty translation quality is BECAUSE I want to encourage people who either cannot wait 3 days or cannot stand my shitty quality to go buy the official version. The people who do not care about that generally have no intentions of buying the official version in the first place, so they are nor a market that affects the author's livelihood.
However, people who don't want to wait or want to read the CLEAN and PROFESSIONAL quality of the official English without paying (or without watching the ads) are the ones that I'm trying to convince to buy the official version.
Please know that by uploading the official version onto here, you are taking away potential revenue from the author, Mojito. You are HURTING her livelihood. Judging from the comments that I read here, I don't think that's something that the people here necessarily want to do.
I can't make you do anything, but I sincerely ask that you do NOT upload the official English versions here. 3 days is not a long time. Waiting that long for a shitty update that will at least help you understand what the chapter is about should be more than enough. It will come every Monday without fail, so please be patient. And please reconsider if you were thinking of uploading the official version.
Thank you.

whiel i agree with not uploading the official version onto here, i'm a little skeptical about your argument.
disclaimer: this is just *my* opinion
it sounds like you're justifying that it's okay for you to upload here bc you're not using the official english version. but that's flawed in itself because you uploading your "shitty" translations is nonetheless giving people the opportunity to read it for free, thus taking away revenue from author.
i appreciate what you're doing here, but i think it'd be better to just own up that what you're doing isn't actually "helping" the author at all. if you're going to do something, just own up to it.
no one else here can even say anything to you since this is an illegal pirating site. we're no better than you and you're no better than us. we're all leeches here :p
now that being said, i full-heartedly agree that if there was a choice of having an illegally translated version over the official version on a pirate website, i would want the illegally translated version to be on here.
that way, as you said, we're making people who want to see the professional versions pay for it/watch a bunch of ads to read it for free
You're not wrong. I admit I got on my high horse. But my stance still stands on not uploading the official English versions on here. That's a pretty shitty thing to do anyway in my opinion.
