I was being bored since doing homework all the time is……boring!
So what did I do? I wasted my time finding nice musique to hear.
So what did I find? I found a great Touhou animation musique video!
I think everyone should watch it even if they don’t know the Touhou chars as much as I have come to know them. It’s brilliant…well it’s great. I love how the put it together where you don’t see any faces but evil smiles and nice figures of the characters, yes a “Silhouette Painting” if you may.
I’d recommend the song too even if you forgot a little to much on the video, lol.
Been as busy as I am…everything else will stand still, lol.
BUT!!!
I found out something today that I can actually do instead of just waiting it for to be weekend and then go “omg so much homework…guess I’ll wrote a post next weekend” etcetc
Today when I was at school, I saw a guy, writing a mail, checking his face book and writing a new entry on his blog!
After seeing it I decided that it was a nice idea to copy and do that. Sadly my laptop was at home, rofl.
Anyways from now on the mission is to have the laptop to the lectures and write a few entries (or atleast one pr week) from uni!
Like I said yesterday, I would write a new post yesterday, which I did but forgot to press on Publish before I went to bed, lol. This will now be done *clicks on publish* enjoy a little bit of history.
Scanlation is something that has been illegal since it started early morni……a few decades ago. Illegal because you take a licensed work, translate it and then share it with other people without the author or the manga company’s consent.
Some people think, it’s alright to scanlate the manga untill it’s been licensed in the country, they are living in (normally they think licensed = licensed in USA) which is wrong since it’s illegal before it was licensed in their country. It’s licensed from the point the company buy the rights to make it….which means it’s already licensed in the whole world when you can find the manga in the Japanese bookstores.
Then there are those, who thinks it’s alright to scanlate the manga since the manga company, that got it licensed in their country (in USA), are doing a bad work with their favorite manga, and they could do a better job themself…still illegal but they don’t care. If you want them to care then get the manga releasing company to do a better job, when they release the manga in their country.
In the end there are those who don’t give a damn about anything and scanlate no matter what. Since you can get your favorite manga and it’s all free, it’s okay in their eyes. We call them bastards….who should ####. >:D
From the start scanlation had the goal (the real agenda of scanlation) of promoting manga in their country and get it licensed by some manga/comic companies so you could buy it, or get more people to read your favorite manga aka making a fanbase. Of course this doesn’t hit entirely well with the company’s Read the rest of this entry »
I’m in da scanlation community cuz of various reasons but that’s a topic for another day. For a day when I got lots of time and don’t know what to write about.
Today we shall talk about the latest in the scanlation world. There are two new things in it: “MangaHelpers’ 180% turn” and “The new history site of Scanlations” which aired yesterday, 10/10;2010 at 10. (I was reading and looking at it before though, kekeke)
In this post I will write a little about Mangahelpers. The next one will be on the site…will write it in the evening.^^
Mangahelpers (MH), who supported scanlations in the past (which we all know are illegal stuff) are trying to make a deal with Viz to support them so they can make the scanlations “legal”. This is not a problem but they want to help Viz hunt down the other scanlators. Also take money for future scanlations on their site, which other people made, by making it pay pr view.
Reason: They want to earn on the community “they” made which lots of people are using cuz they found a common place/site. Yep, the usual: Let’s use others to make money ourself.
A place, where raw providers upload their raws, translators translate what they want after their own choice (from the manga that were put up on the site), editors edit what they want and it’s released on the site. If someone wanted to make a group and release manga they can get that function on MH too. After a year or two (MH 4 years old now) this resulted in Read the rest of this entry »
Yeah, I haven’t written anything since….last month…errr the month before. Like I said before, everything will become busy and I will get less and less time to write this whole semester. Now there’s only a few months left and I can come back from hell again. XD
As Camui reminded me of the comment she posted on the previous “Lost in Translation” post, UN decided to say hello in this Ban the Eroge Crusade, the results were this: UN meet and talks Eroge
Read it or don’t-….in short: Lots of advices where one was to enforce a legal ban on video games featuring rape and sexual violence.
Of course, this is only for the discrimination of women in Japan. GirlxGirl, GuyxGuy and woman raping (read: Forced sex0ring) men is totally fine since you won’t be discriminating any women in those cases, lol.
I would love to say a lot about how I don’t see how pictures can affect people more than erotic novels, pornographic, violent sex games and orgies, sex education in school, newspaper with details about the rapes etcetcetc but I don’t got that much time and I don’t think you got that much time either.
