Dekoboko Scanlations now has a blog. How exciting.
There really isn’t any reason for this blog’s existence other than the fact that it’s a free service that Mangadex is providing and I felt that it would be interesting to post updates on a blog/website and the staff could write up some thoughts about the chapters and series we work on as we release them. For example for teibou, i thought it would be interesting to research/post about the different type of fishes that they catch or cultural references that wasn’t discussed in depth in the manga. The translator for teibou also wrote up long analyses of the characters and how he plans to translate their dialogue for teibou before we released our first chapter and it would be a shame not to share it.
I’m not really good at writing up stuff and my social skills are non-existent so the future of this blog is uncertain. It may be abandoned as a result of negligence after a short while or it’ll be updated but with incredibly brief thoughts and end up turning into just an update blog that serves no purpose and becomes completely irrelevant. I really don’t know but I hope the staff might be interested in posting about their thoughts of the series we are working on. Be it clarifying translation stuff, showing off our redrawing/typesetting efforts that may otherwise be looked over, I have zero expectations about this blog and doubt that anyone would even read it so I hope we just have fun.
Man, writing down stuff is hard and I’m already cringing at myself thinking about the people that are going to read this. I’m just writing whatever pops in my head but it’s somehow coming out stiffer and sounds like I’m trying to write a essay for a lit exam. Ah whatever. This small scanlation group is pretty comfy with the small number of staff we have and we like and are passionate (probably) about the projects we work on. It’s a pretty tight-knit group where I can unleash my autism and rant about irl and random stuff that nobody cares about. Oh wait they probably don’t care too. :'(
I would say that the quality of our scanlation is better than average what with the average now being shit white box redrawing and anime ace typesetting. I hope that our group can keep up the good work and continue having fun working on the series. I personally can’t be arsed about the readers and I’m just doing this as a hobby. I hope it stays that way. Anyways, the series that we will be working on in 2021 are
∙ Houkago Teibou Nisshi (Chapters 29-31 are translated, 29-30 are being typeset, 31 rd started)
∙ Youkaku no Majoromi (latest Ch 14 at typesetting)
∙ Koroshiya S no Yuragi (Ch 7 at typsetting and we got a new staff!!! :)))
∙ Tekita na maid no oneesan erasou de ichizu na bocchan is dropped and will be picked up by Noir Scans
