Not complaining, just wondering why some manga take a day after release to put up translated while others take several months for a chapter.

That being said, I am a bit concerned because the current translators, Dredshi are dropping the series because supposedly BLAH has it taken care of, but BLAH is having staff issues and currently lack a translator for said series. So the next installment could take a very long while.

Looks like this is probably the best course of action, I should be able to start picking up individual phrases after awhile. Fluency will come with time.

Could you elaborate on the differences between the unofficial-English translations and the Chinese translations you mentioned awhile back? Curious as to what they are.

Haha, wow, they got 11th last time, didn't they?

Glad to hear it though, means it's likely not going to be dropped early, assuming the French market is enough to support it. Wouldn't mind this series being sold in the U.S. though.

Ah, no worries,

if it's no critical plot points I shouldn't fret much about it.

By the way, have you been able to read volume 7 and 8 yet? I'm kind of wondering as to the disposition of Ikfes, and they haven't elaborated much on him so far in the chapters that have been translated. Not sure if he's good, arrogant, evil, or what at this point.

Think he might have read the wikipedia article about it, says there has been nine volumes released in Japan but they might be ahead of the times.

Course, than again, there was a Volume 0 wasn't there? So I guess that does mean 9 have been released.

11th was its sell chart ranking for a given month.
France market is one of the most competitive as its a home of the Franco-Belgian comics or BD.
We call Comics & Manga the 9th art here

Majek · 2009-01-14, 07:00

eitherway when volume 9 is available, do tell
