I mean.... you can still read scans and support the mangaka at the same time by buying the volumes, not to mention Kaguya-sama doesnt even have an official weekly release in english so how else would people read the series?
Sales data shows that an infinitesimal small amount of people read scans and purchase the volumes.
Shouldn't we go back to the stone age too? no one can read scans, only buying the volumes that are like a year behind the japanese version? What's your problem? lol
Oh i remember they had something like that, but where is the results for their polls? i didn't find in the site
It was going to be on their site. Anyway, MH is less likely to bandwagon vote, as our users tend to actually vote for the best that week, instead of just voting for the most popular every time.
That doesn't change the fact that there's no way for anyone to read the series officially in english every week, I doubt anyone wants to wait every other month or 2 for a VIZ volume that released in Japan over a year ago. Not to mention some series aren't licensed in english anyway, so then there would be no way to read certain series without scans
No i'm asking where they post the results of their own polls until now.
We aren't entitled to the mangaka's work. I can't read this garbage but I own multiple copies of Yoakemono, Mitsukubi Condor, other Jump series and series that the mangaka's family has probably never even heard of. This is what I'm willing to do to support the mangaka. What are you willing to do?
They stopped doing them. They tried doing them years ago, and only wanted to start them back up recently. I don't know where they are now, but I'm guessing they were removed.
That's some cool layout for the results...
They were going to do something similar with the new polls, but with added information that MH votes were being added.
I can confirm this in my case. I'm glad they stopped translating series from WSJ. It's so disrespectful when they have a $2/month subscription to read practically everything that's running now. Not only is it a goddamn steal, but it's an effortless way to support these people who work tirelessly in this industry that has given us so much joy. Without them, this website forum thingy wouldn't exist and we wouldn't be having all these discussions. As for series that aren't officially released weekly in English, yeah, I'm guilty of not having the patience to wait years to read them, but I do go out of my way to purchase the official volumes for those as soon as they're available!
I think you should thank the Manga Editors for having this forum thingy, specially when this site was for a time a big place for fan translations.
Of course I'm thankful for them. I'm not looking at things in black and white like Sensui. There was a time when we all needed WSJ Edited Mangas because there was no convenient way to be up-to-date with these series, but I think that time has come to pass. That being said, I think we still need Manga Editors for series that aren't released officially in English. I'm glad people here leak ToC stuff and talk about future Shonen Jump-related content. As I stated in the post you replied to though, I still read Edited Mangas, but from series I can't read officially. If my post came off as offensive, I do apologize, as the point I was trying to make is that I don't see why we can't just give a little back to these mangaka people that break their back for us. If you do read WSJ series ahead of time while supporting them officially at the same time, I get it. There's nothing wrong with that imo. I just don't like it when people do just that and don't give a little back when $2/month really isn't much. Maybe I'm in the wrong. I don't declare that I'm in the right because these are my opinions. I'm open to hearing more opinions on this matter.
Though that's only for Viz, right? Some people can only access MangaPlus, which doesn't offer that.
lol how i'm even supposed to answer this comment, i'm almost feeling like i screamed at you kkkkkk
