Oh, I didn’t know about those Ultimate decks. Where would those be available?
@Sheepy: Do you happen to have the rest of them lying around, or a link to something about it?
I happen to agree about having a firm grasp on your language, but more often than not, people seem to not care. Spanish is quite a bit more complex than English, and it’s very obvious when you don’t know your stuff, especially when writing. And it’s horrible to read that letter-soup too!
As for my avatar, I grabbed it off someone else on MAL, because I found it quite fitting, being a tea enthusiast and having had long hair at the time. I’ve been told it’s someone from the Eve no Jikan movie.
By the way, how does one quote someone else’s post here? Guess I’ll have to manually insert Q tags?
Scanlations get a lot less press than fansubbing groups, and that is sad. I love reading some well-worked manga. Will look at your group.
And don’t talk my job down :P Most groups don’t care about the quality of their work, and just want to get shit out the door. My group does care, so my position is actually appreciated. Getting good translators is damn hard, but getting people that have a firm grasp of their own language isn’t much easier. I’m just happy I can contribute to the fansubbing scene, tbh.
It’s not like I’m learning Japanese to translate anime, but that would be a nice plus once I’m at a good level. That, and understanding those crazy Japanese TV shows.
EDIT: You offer manga download. I just started loving you big time. Can’t stand reading stuff online, it’s just not the same experience. Not to speak of image quality.
EDIT2: The “link embed code” is regular html. ie
Link textEDIT3: Thing doesn’t want to actually show html, code. W3C Link Docs. That should do it :P
I “work” with a Spanish group called Inshuheki. They won me over with the name xD I take care of correcting translations (ie, grammar and spelling), and quality control before things get released.
As for vocab, I think I’m not going to get frustrated over not being able to recall these words right now, and rather save my energies for when serious kanji comes along.
I’ve already looked at readthekanji, and I’m liking it so far. I just feel that I don’t have enough grammar under my belt to truly benefit from it, but a paid plan is planned for when I’m ready. The free version is good enough for now.
I *am* learning some Kanji, so it’s not like I’m skipping. I’m following along with textfugu, but not yet quite overachieving, like Koichi keeps suggesting in the chapters. Call me weirdo, but I find Kanji huge fun.
Thanks for the tips :)
