some recommendations

Post by **N3oShweaty** » Tue Apr 11, 2006 3:03 am

Could anyone recommend any unlicensed/licensed(maybe), unscanlated shonen/seinen series? I was considering picking up a new project but with the market saturated with all these groups doing the same manga, i just dont know what to scanlate. I am looking for something(s) with some length and whose raws wouldnt be too tough to find (ie: something that would be found in the pages of shonen jump, young jump, ultra jump etc) because then i can buy the raw manga and begin the search for a translator.

how about vagabond?
=)

the mangaka just resumed the manga from 21 after a hiatus.
he suffered from writer's block or something.

Not too sure why you started a topic like this in a forum of another scanlation site. Some other sites I can understand, but here?

Sorry, I'm not terribly fond of this idea. Firstly, there's not enough traffic here. Secondly, not many people read raws to know what should be scanlated or not. Thirdly, we ourselves are always keeping an eye out for good manga to work on, and posting what your group should scanlate on a forum of another scanlation group isn't exactly a great idea. Although EG is hosted by Mindwerks, the main interest is still on EG's side.

Problem with starting new projects on our side is the lack of translators. I couldn't even get a fricking translator after all my begging and all those notes I include in every release. So if anyone is reading this thread, we do need translators, yes.

If you want to check if another group is working on the manga of your choice, check manganews.net. Vagabond is still being worked on by M-S, so bad idea there.

It's not the first time he does that either

Go to mangahelpers for this kind of stuffs, it's quite a relax bunch and I go there regularly now. It is their purpose to connect translator-scanlator bunch, not like the mindwerks forums.

Use the site that Albator suggested. Like I said, it's not because I hate this thread or you broke the rules or whatever, it's just that it's totally weird to have ask for recommedations to scanlate on another scanlation group's site. I sure as hell won't do that.

Now, if you have the threads all set out on the other respectible forums, I will now proceed to lock this thread. I think the grounds for locking it is understandable, I hope.
