These posts are not insightful, and do not meaningfully contribute to this thread. Also, this decision is not up for discussion, so posts discussing this decision will also be deleted.~ Halloween

So I never cancelled my Act-Age vol 2 preorder. Completely forgot to. And it still came in. So there are still prints for English new volumes out there apparently

 

[Thehoennhippo]

Guess it makes sense that volume 2 was already in the warehouses since it was so sudden, I assume volume 3 in English didn't get to that stage of production before being cancelled.

You got your own Chiyoko in the house, you lucky boy, you! <3
At least Kei won't feel lonely as sole AA Volume in your shelf.^^

This will probably be pretty rare in a few years, considering they will most certainly never be printed again. I'm also guessing that there are probably way less copies available than for volume 1.

I wonder why the series is still up for pre-order up to volume 5 on major online stores. But I also have no idea how much time and effort it would take for Viz to get those listings deleted if more volumes really won't be coming.

Damn, that survey really was useful after all. Manga Plus is getting an infusion of popular stuff. Much needed.

One less from Jump+, even if known for a while. Now let's see if they keep filling with + or next one is from SQ.

Mega cute is a lot easier on the ear than super adorable. Poor official translation has to be difference for the sake of being difference.

I disagree. Mega Cute sounds awkward. Super Adorable flows better for me and the 'Gals' also hints at the fact that this does become a "harem" manga later on.

Its finally here in manga plus

Of course someone going to shill the official ver despite how shitty they are (Zolo xd). Imagine thinking a mouthful of 6 syllables is less awkward than short and simple 3 syllables.

Wake me up when Kingdom gets added to Mangaplus

It's nice to see them add new stuff though. The platform is growing and it just gives more options for income for the creators.

 

[Wookitake]

They should ask @Shinuki no Reborn to open a pool to decide the translations

 

[Koni]

Saying you prefer one title translation over another = shilling, apparently. Good to know.

 

[tirakai]

I agree that mega cute sounds awkward, it reeks of overly literal fan translation. Super adorable is pretty natural sounding by comparison, shorter doesn't mean better.

Anyway it's cool that we're getting a bunch of the Jump+ hits on Manga+ now between this and Dentist and Kaiju #8, getting random series from ch 1 is nice and all but a lot of them end up flopping, so it's good to have new series we know are going to stick around for a while (so that we don't end up with another Summer situation where lots of stuff ends together before they can pick up anything new).

 

[Thehoennhippo]

I think Mega Cute sounds better but also I don't really give a shit, of all the topics to debate this seems pretty pointless.

I agree. This is entirely pointless, and it's a topic that's frequently brought up in here.

Let's dial down the weeb stuff, everyone.

*looks at website address*
Yep, still mangahelpers.

If this isn't the place to be a weeb, then no place is.
But I agree, that discussion wasn't going anywhere.

 

[Nemesis]

Oh yeah, don't mind that. Just the order the source put the teams in (so I followed). But within the teams, it is by seniority.

Ahhh I see. I thought it was that so thanks for confirming.

This discussion is beyond normal levels of weeb. Plus, again, it's entirely pointless.
