Believe that the work on Mangadex has not be redeem to be good enough to be upload here and in any case, Cue asked Stan if it was ok for them to take over the project.

Dynasty's versions are 25 chapters behind the original version, which is getting a new one weekly now, apparently.
Hino-san needed someone to do a sprint to catch up. xKs, the person on Mangadex, doesn't seen to be doing any other series (at least on MD) and thus can provide that with relative ease. Sure, I'd rather have a Cuetie or Cyan Steam version with that bit of extra polish in the long run, but polish usually takes time and/or boundless motivation.

I want nothing but the best for all scanlators, whose work I deeply appreciate. As a group they have enriched my life immensely.

That being said, the chapters of this series now going up on Mangadex seem to me to be perfectly serviceable, and I'm really glad to be getting caught up on one of my favorite series, in which, IMO, very interesting things are happening.

It's not about keeping the project, it's about how you approach it and collaborate. As I said, I have no problem with stepping down. I also would have liked to upload the chapters very quickly but sometimes there's life. It's about how you do it and how you communicate with the other scanlators

Sure, you should always expect that much as common courtesy and it's a real shame if that gets omitted. I lack the scanlation-insider perspective to gauge how easy it would have been for them to assess the current TL status and make contact with you and Stan. Since I don't have that perspective, my rationalization would be that they went only by the status on Mangadex, which was "usurped my MTL, last Cyan Steam chapter 6 months ago". Doesn't make it right, but might just help understand why it went wrong.

Well, the fakeout should not have come as a surprise regardless, since their teacher would never allow a nude portrait of a student to be submitted anyway :D
I love how curiously prepared Hino was and still claimed ignorance regarding the deadline. I'm sure she had it all planned out. If not, what else did she have planned with those pasties? Kogu was asking the right questions there, but probably didn't come to the right conclusion.

I guess that's almost especially true for 122 and 123. The finger licking and the portrait were a real treat.

If it bothers you, you can always try to get in contact with the xKs. They don’t appear to be a regular scanlator, so it’s entirely possible that they either assumed the series had been dropped, wasn’t aware that your team had picked up the scans, or simply is not familiar with scanlator ettiequte (it does strike me as somewhat akin to an industry standard that a casual observer would not be immediately aware of). Even if you’re fine with handing over the series, it might help clear up some bad feelings or help ensure better communication in the future (assuming they even intend to keep uploading after this).

I’m no expert, but I find the quality of works on Mangadex to be fairly satisfactory, especially given the rate of uploads. It could maybe use a bit of polish, but I’ve certainly seen lower quality translations uploaded here.

I think it's unlikely that xKs knows about this place or the version here at all.

In 125, how would you handle 姫始め? (Google translates it literally as ‘Princess beginning’, which hardly needs to be spoilered at all.)

Tough one. I can't think of a good way to retain the ambiguity, but I'm not a native speaker. Maybe something like "Let's go have the new year's first time at my place.", but I'd hardly call that an improvement.

This little girl is single handedly threatening to kill my interest in this manga. On a more positive note, I do love how these two are slowly reversing in terms of boldness.

Hm, I hope this isn't a serious love interest. Key-chan doesn't seem that interesting and I want someone nice for Omichi.

Several chapters?! Nice.

Contrary to some others' opinions, I find Key-chan cute and interesting. And Omichi needs somebody, clearly, so why not. However, I'm not at all sure that that will happen.

And your summons are in vain. The FBI has no power in imagination.
