Well nonetheless this months yuri hime was good the villianess and summer lemon and overlay are more than enough for me, if not for the volume release last month I would have completely forgotten about Chasing Spica

Here I am, looking at my August issue, this manga is not just there, but the entire Yurihime there is not a single manga that I really care about....this has never happened before. I guess checking the Yurihime website does not mean anything, just because it says a manga is there, does not mean it will really be there, not even 48 hours before publishing.

Should I put in spoilers? I have no idea when the scanlation will be uploaded, but we are now 4 chapters behind.

The forums are meant to discuss what has been released to dynasty, and speculation on what is to come, not posting spoilers on what hasn’t been translated IMO.

Don't. At best you're spoiling people who didn't ask (because people being curious will click on black bars), at worst you're misleading them because you misinterpreted something.

Honestly, as a scanlator, I'd loathe people who say "I've read the raws and this is what happens", even when the scanlator is behind, because it's demotivating.

If you really know Japanese, translate and scanlate unreleased series, join a group, whatever. Everyone will thank you.

Here, you're just annoying actual translators.

Incredibly true. People with nothing to do but post half-misunderstood spoilers from manga raws on forums instead of contributing something useful are truly a pox on the community. They damage the motivation of scanlators and enjoyment of readers all for a tiny ego boost leeched off of some barely scraped together ability to understand primary school Japanese. The world would be a better place if they simply stopped posting entirely. Forever.

Is there something wrong about learning reading and speaking a language?
The issue is about spoilers. Nothing to do with that. Take it easy bro:)

The part you very conveniently left out explained what it had to do with spoilers. Why do this, when the relevant post is directly above yours on the page?

I'll just shut up. I cannot please both sides. The one that votes down on "spoilers" when the spoilers were not even be a proper spoilers. Then there are those who desperately want to learn a bit of the chapter, but cannot wait for the translation, such as this one (5 chapters behind), hence my vague answer. Oh well, that's what facebook for, and I have not even pointed out at places like chan or red**...
At no time did I look down upon the scanlation team. In general, scanlation is much better than the "official" copyright holders. A bad official translation frequently, IMHO, needs all the other official translation of other language, plus the raw, and all the scanlation translation, just to figure out the true meaning of certain things. Such as Love. Lord knows how many times I have to check the Raw to determine whether it is suki, daisuki, or aishiteru....

Uh you're pretty harsh there. I don't think most people posting spoilers are looking for kudos for their ego, but are usually just excited and want to discuss it with others.

I personally don't mind small spoilers that are hidden once in a while, but it does look bad when it's like pages and pages of black bars or when it's paragraphs of summary. I think a good rule is to just stop when people tell you to stop.

I think this is where a dm system would be nice for those that do want spoilers, but I guess there's discord and whatnot for that.

I looked: it's deepl machine translated by someone whose native language isn't English.

IE, it's trash translation. Read at your own risk.

On one hand, it's normal that someone would pick it up since Noca is semi comatose, on the other hand it's sad that's it's been picked up by an individual who knows neither Japanese nor English.

This reminds me of my youth, I had a girlfriend like Nanase and it was hard. She was mainly focused on her hobbies and friends even though she made a move on me. I came like third place while I put my partner on first place after family. It's really unhealthy when one side doesn't have as much to fill her life, if Yu had more hobbies and stuff to do, to grow as a person she wouldn't be as vulnerable to fukos manipulation. This story kinda hits home. But yeah there's no real winner here, Nanase will be heartbroken, Yu suffered of her guilty conscience and Fuko will only score an unhealthy relationship.

There's no greater currency in a relationship than trust and they don't have it. Tbh it's hard to care about the characters here because they all suck lol, I really dig the art though it's simply erotic. Oh yeah it doesn't matter what Nanase did, cheating is wrong. Yu should break up and that's that, but yeah they are just kids so what are you gonna do

Yeah. That is the word I keep trying to use but somehow I cannot find it in my memory. "they all suck". But I do care about the characters because I want to see the eventual train wrecks and who "win" in the end. Judging by the story so far, they are all on the way to be perished in a train wreck. Oh, of course, all three of them are ridiculously pretty.
That's their ONLY common redeeming quality. The final pages do make my jaw drops, but on the other hand, you see it coming all the way back to that festival chapter. Finally SOMEONE manages to put two and two together...now that person will have a large burden of whether to zip it or not.
Moral of the story so far: If you are desperate for money, you should be prepared to make an exchange with a sugar something by repaying in another currency currently not on the stock market floor. (ok, maybe it is available in a dark cyber space...)

Oh, if citrus is famous for sexual assault, this manga will not disappoint you in that department. I mean there are more liquid after chapter 11 of this manga than Citrus' 14+ tankoubon, despite the title being a fruit. (plum, citrus. jasmine..). Oh wait, there is no liquid in Citrus in the first place other than the crying type..

Yes, I have caught up RAW wise, at 11. I have a subscription. Now that someone sort of translate it up until 11, I have a bit more freedom to write here. Maybe when 7-11 are uploaded, then I will write more with freedom.

Tip: Practice your drawing of fingers. Panels and panels of just four things: moving fingers, unknown liquid with interesting viscosity, absolutely lack of any other background including the location of said fingers, and finally, bubbles after bubbles of "incomprehensible words or sound" That will help your Yuri career in multiple folds. Or at least someone will buy your Doujin.

I will be surprised if this series ended up as a tragedy. Iwami, to the best of my knowledge, has never drew something with a tragic ending. Unless you consider polyamory or throuple being tragic.... It is also relatively rare to have a tragic story printed in Comic Yurihime. I would say "I like you Cruddy" is the only one for the last 2 years which I read, "Kimi to Tsuzuru Utakata" is set up as a tragedy once it started doing. I don't think きみが死ぬまで恋をしたい (My Wish Is To Fall In Love Until You Die) will end up in tears, one major character has already died. Life goes on.

As for translation done by a non-English and non-Japanese speakers, I don't know. It is entirely possible that a third language is actually involved. For example, what if there is a GOOD Thai scanlation, and someone else translate that into English with some help from the internet translation websites... Someone actually go ahead and do it. I would say thank you even if it may not be an ideal translation. Semelparous is also behind...for another reason.

If something isn't uploaded here, you still have to use black bars, even if it's uploaded elsewhere.

As for these machine translated chapters, they'll NEVER be uploaded here.

For one, unless the previous group announced it dropped a manga, Dynasty never change group. For two, Dynasty has standards and rarely, if ever, uploads MTL or Re-translates from a 3rd language.

As for Semelparous, it's behind for the same reason as this one, since it's the same person translating it. And anyway it's in hiatus.
