Waiitttt is Teiji not going to be translated anymore not that it got licensed?

I think some people are getting a bit confused here, due to this being posted in the wrong thread.

If one only follows the releases and doesn't read the discussions or browse the site, they may have first heard about it through that credits page, so...but your larger point remains. I don't think there's any reason to believe that Virgins' Empire is getting licensed as of now.

I'll be adding links and relevant info to both the first post in this thread, and the series description in a short time.

Wonder what Taiyaki purpose is with this. If it’s to make more money I’m not sure it’s going to be achieved... the ones who didn’t pay will continue to do so and just stop reading her manga. So if her purpose was to make her manga more available for english-able readers it’s definitely not going to be fulfilled since significantly less people going to read it now. Which is pretty sad.

On the one hand, it's highly unlikely that at any point in the next few years, Taiyaki will reach the amount of English readers as she reached here. On the other, there is hard data - both public and private - which suggests that she will be getting more financial support than before. Paywalls actually are effective at convincing readers to support the artist, given that some portion of the readership will never pay if it is not necessary to consume the content. This seems doubly true, given that Taiyaki really fills this very specific niche.

I guess I expected her - being self-publishing artist and all - to be much more chill with official English translation eventually uploaded and shared, maybe adopting a webcomic artists strategy with main contest officially shared freely and paying providing access to extra materials and early access to chapters.

Unfortunately (for us), the culture in Japan is just so vastly different, I don't see that being a realistic expectation anytime in the near future. Personally, I find it to already be a very surprising step to allow the currently public chapters to remain that way.

Also I feel like a lot of people misunderstanding the situation: Yuru Oyako manga was not “licensed” in the sense of getting publisher and whatnot - it’s still self-publishing. It’s just Goggled Anon is under contract now and it was Taiyaki’s personal decision for paid-only distribution of his translation.

That's true! My apologies for misstating it in the first place.

Namori is great.

Readin in 2020 to make me feel a little bit better

Forreal. Always liked this one.

Well, that sure was something...

I know this is Tsubomi, and I love this artist's work, but I too am pretty confused by the incest tag. It's a really nice little slice of life oneshot tho.

Can we have a bro/third wheel tag?

It's a nice idea, I'm not sure yet though, given how rare it is. Maybe best for the images section ?

Being able to search after specific forums would be useful, I think. Like if you want to find out if a forum about [x] already exists or not.

You can technically do this with Google, by typing "site:dynasty-scans.com" (remove the quotation marks) at the beginning of your search. Or use this template. Sadly it's not perfect, but it is a decent way of searching the site, and it's as good as we'll have for anytime in the near future. Would be a great feature to have integrated into the site, though.

The best part of the meme post above is its use of the word "pituitous." Don't let anyone, not even spellcheck, tell you that pituitous is not a word. Now why, exactly, we're talking about allergies and their associated bodily fluids to describe the average shipping art, well, I'll never know (and I'm happier for it).

...I wanted to come into this thread to complain Yuri or something, but the meme was good enough that I'm now sated. Thank you.

You can find knight heron's continuation on MangaDex. I've added this link to the description for now, and hopefully we have it here soon as well!

They are. The extra page at the end of each chapter has its name.

WildCreature also has links to most of them in the comments on MD.

Thanks so much! You're a miracle. Added them to the first post in this thread.

This looks cute, but I've never really liked these long strip comics. I find them hard to read for some reason.

Same, it just doesn't "flow" for me the right way, unless it's really spectacularly done. Willing to put up with it for good content, though.

This looks great, kinda inspiring that the author is working hard even though they're a noobie. Thanks to whoever brought it here! Hype.

This series has now been licensed and further chapters will not be uploaded! Please read the above posts or the credits page. Congrats to Taiyaki and Goggled Anon!

Serialized version of this one. Thanks so much to Daphie's for pointing this one out and allowing us to host it!

Sorry I'm not able to keep up with this series. Based on the post above, are the chapters actually song names? If so, I'll definitely add them! I honestly didn't even make that connection.

This is NOT a yuri-only anthology, and was never promoted as one. It includes yuri but it is not SOLELY yuri.

My mistake then. The result is the same, the tag stays.

But on second thought an hour later, I don't think I said it was solely yuri in the first place. This story should be a good indication of that, so...colour me confused.

I wonder what causes more discourse here. People mad that bisexuality and polyamory exist, or the cheating-themed stories we occasionally get.

Why would it make you biphobic or polyphobic just because you don't like a story because a dude is involved in the romance? By the way, the problem is not that, the problem is that it has the tag "yuri" when clearly it's not,and it is basically why most of us are here, for a romantic relationship yuri

There is a nice history of people posting biphobic and polyphobic nonsense on this website. You can have a different view, I don't think anybody is lumping you in with those people. As for the tag, this title is clearly from the Yuri Villainess Anthology. Given how the story plays out, I think it's a pretty safe bet to trust the author/editor intentions rather than replacing them with some other interpretation.

I wonder what causes more discourse here. People mad that bisexuality and polyamory exist, or the cheating-themed stories we occasionally get.

There shouldn't be any discourse involving people mad that bisexuality and polyamory exist. Or heterosexual relationships for that matter. They should simply be banned from this site. Nobody has to put up with that garbage.

Just to follow up. There can be some measure of reasonable discussion about tagging choices, genre expectations, and/or their relation to story content. Open biphobia, transphobia, etc. will not be tolerated. Do feel free to get in touch if you see that lurking.

Puns
Beautiful.

I saw it on mangadex, so I merged the pages together and uploaded the chapters. As soon as they'll finish with ch15 I'll also add that!

Thank you, Tsuki-chan!

Nearly three years later, the "sequel" has been added to the doujin!

Chapters 33 and 43 now reflect Bakkin's volume releases, including cover pages and a few brief comic pages. You'll find them at the beginning of 33, and the end of 43, respectively. Check those out if you're interested!

Such awe-inspiring dedication, too. Thanks so much to Bakkin for keeping YRYR alive!

Can we please get something to tag stories like The Afterschool Angel? Something simple like Warning that gives no other information, but lets people know not to simply click on it because the other tags are so benign?

Yeah, I think you've got the right idea.

For some extra context. We allowed this discussion to be opened up sometime in 2015 when the site was getting regular updates, with the hope/expectation that a more advanced tagging system was not too far down the line. Fast-forward to now; such a system never materialized. In the meantime, it feels like an attempt to preserve certain elements of certain works via obscurity has rendered some important tags almost unusable - and the "standards," to the extent they exist, have been applied so inconsistently that other tags are now employed in ways they were never intended to be.

There's no denying that these are all genuine problems and that given our limitations there is no "perfect" answer, but I know we can do much better by folks than we have been. I sincerely hope we'll have come to an acceptably simple solution before much longer.
