Re: Hellsing manga
I highly disagree with Max7 being the "best place to get Hellsing manga". They're more of a last resort if you can't get anything else. Why do I say this? They're Hellsing releases are far from anything HQ as far as translation wise go. In many of their chapters, many errors are made with translation. A few of these examples incluse typing out "Battler" instead of Butler、 バラー being the katakana for the furigana in that panel, ad-libbing by having Anderson call Maxwell Enrico, when the kata never so much as appears, in the same page as the Battler mistake they put something way off than the intended meaning when Major mentions wanting Van Houtan cocoa. This stuff from the YKO chapters from volume 8 alone makes it almost feel like I'm watching a HK sub.
Another thing about Max7 which can instantly knock 50 points off the respect metre no matter who you are, is they had the nerve to take someone else's raws for Chapter 81, when that person specifically mentioned to be credited if they were to be used in Edited Mangas, and credited someone else in their credit page. But there's more. Not only did they steal those raws, more then half of the chapter was mistranslated. The whole first page alone was wrong. Translating Alucard's line as "That's what you get for being so flashy! I am the master! I am the servent!" There's mutliple things wrong with this. The context of the line is not supposed to mean that Walter was the cause of the explosion which happened in the panel above. Seras and Integral are in the zeppelin destroying the place from the inside, thus they caused the explosion, along with the damage already done to it. Also, in what Alucard actually says, no way can the word "flashy" be used, even as a synonym. Then we move to the second part. Here they translate making it seem like he's saying 主人ですか (Which I might have this one either a little off or way off) when he's saying "My Servet! My Master!!" The full correct line would be "They did that in quite a fashion huh!! My Servent!! My Master!!" All this and this is only one bubble. The rest has similiar mistakes. All these errors in translation, they don't even label the chapter numbers correctly on their main site.
In terms of quality, both picture and translation accuracy, I'll stick with with Rin's HQ releases, and his MQ ones just for translation, and if he can't release anything and I'm desperate, I'll think about Max7. Much thanks to taking your time and going back and releasing the volume 8 chapters from the tankobon. Very good to see these chapters come and correct many mistakes.
