Willing to Translate this

勇気 (Yuuki) May 9, 2017 6:20 am

I'm willing to translate this manga, but I need Japanese raws and a team to clean/typeset/proof. I have the raws for the latest chapter, but none before it. If it's true that is was dropped, I'd need help, but I can pick it up.

    ...? I never stated they were dropped, I asked, "How are they going to circulate the scanlation," presuming they were contacted by the publisher. I actually never said the word "dropped" once. I asked YOU for m... 勇気 (Yuuki)

    Hi, I'm the same anon who answsered you before. First, sorry if I offended you because it really wasn't my purpose. At first, I just wanted to inform you that Canis wasn't dropped and an other team was working on it already. I did it because I didn't want you or the other team to work for nothing.
    It's true that you didn't say "it was dropped" (like many other comments did), you were just using conditional "if it's dropped" etc. that's why I wanted to correct your assumption. About your question on how they would circulate the chapters, sorry because I thought you were being sarcastic, that's why I didn't explain to you properly like I could have. English is not my mother tongue, and even though I think I speak it rather well, I can misunderstand sometimes. That's also why I asked you what you mean by killing the project, because I really couldn't understand the meaning.
    About teams working on the same serie, it's an other matter. Personnally, I think it's really a shame, because as you said, scanlation is a big work so 2 teams working separately and doing the same thing sounds like a waste of time. But of course everyone is free to do as they want and I'm no one to judge. I just have my opinion.
    On the other hand, I think you should have check the translator's blog way before this whole discussion. Yeah, of course, you don't really have any obligation to do so, however instead of saying "if it's dropped" you could have seen it wasn't. The team has been subtle enough in this message to explain they wouldn't "officially" scanlate Canis anymore but also they were still working on it.
    And about your speculation at the end, well, it's not my fault if you assumed they would do private releases when it has never been mentionned anywhere. You could have just asked them if their releases of Canis would be public or private, the team is pretty easy to contact and I'm sure they would have tell you.
    Anyway, there's no use arguing about this forever. Objectively, I think we were both wrong here. I shouldn't have been harsh or rude in my answers, I'm not proud of that because that's really not the kind of person I am in RL, I should have explained to you properly. You had good intentions and wrong assumptions, and you don't seem like a bad person either.
    So please, no hard feelings, that really wasn't what I wanted.
