Although now in the age of social media and forums like reddit, BT is far less important. People can now start a blog, get millions of hits and earn money through donations. Btw whats your opinion on the new wave on MT translators, as one of the older solo MT translators. |

I've finished HnA Vol19. No summary from me; For those of you that don't follow Mahouka threads, I've been warned by the AnimeSuki staff to stop writing those. The AS standard seems to be 'if it can replace buying the product and reading it, it's bad', so my comments/review of this volume will go below that standard. You guys aren't going to be getting a timeline out of this or anything.
Short version: This volume sucked. For those of you who've kept track of my opinion on this series from my previous posts in this thread, I'm back to near my lowest point of my opinion on this series; not to the point of apathy and 'one more bad volume and I'll drop this series', but still down to 'WTF is this sh!t'. Spoiler for Vol19 long version comments:
The saving grace of this volume? 1) The fight scenes. While who was fighting made no sense (antagonists a$$-pulled into showing up in the UK), the fights weren't choreographed that badly. If you have a high threshold for dues ex machina anyway, Kinji always pulls out something with HSS. 2) The humour was hit and miss, but some of it wasn't too bad.

Well now this is even more pathetic. So now we HAVE to spend money to even know if we should care about the series or not, or bother the people who made the summaries in PM's to PM us a summary? Or is that also againt the rules?
Some people take "copyright" so far that it just delves into utter nonsense. And not everyone has the luxury to buy these things either in store or online. I'm not one. But there are many people I know who're well in there 30's to 40's who choose not to even use a credit card or debit card because of the legal bullshit that's placed in those things and banks. Paypal is also kind of whacky.

^ i agree to this.
before i buy a light novel on my local bookstore i first inquire a summary if the summary is not worthy of my money i dont dare buy it. well since summary are now prohibited in here bye bye buying light novels at my local bookstore i view summaries as a sneak peek of the current volume.

MT translations are not bad as l;ong as you dont rely on a single source. Mt translators if they want to be good they need to do harder work than ordinary translations. Because of that MT translation is a pretty good tool at learning japanese. I was listing MT on the last volume of the zero no tsukaima more out of convenience than out of anything because i was mostly translating it without a help of any MT.

Says a lot about everyone's expectations about this series huh when we're all complaining about the lack of summaries from now on on AS instead of the contents of HnA Vol19
For the record, even without this prohibition on the forum staff's part I wouldn't have summarized this volume anyway, like I did for some past volumes A lot of Vol19 was cringeworthy bad. Not 'dropping this' bad, but still bad.
