@waifu look up your local bookstore instead, they sometimes bring manga too (which it's weird but they do do that) @romin

@waifu I'm surprised Argentina still has manga stores, there are none here anymore, they sell all sorts of other unrelated products too right

@deadheat@freesoftwareextremist.com yeah lots of chinese crap, comic industry is big, but argentina's manga industry seems bigger, the editorial Ivréa releases at least 4 new volumes per week, they did 11 this week, both new and old manga, they recently announced a rerelease of Trigun. where you at though, mexico?

@waifu I'm glad to hear, having physical manga is great.

>comic industry is big
How though? Marvel and DC are pure garbage even for normie tastes.

I might find some manga for sale here if look at stores that sell all sorts of rpg and video game stuff, but I'm not likely to find a good variety of them.

@deadheat@freesoftwareextremist.com There's lots of local comics made "for love" which don't sell much but still, they exist I guess, it's like the nerds just refuse for their hobby to die so they do it by themselves

@deadheat@freesoftwareextremist.com I actually wrote about it recently on my blog, even though they do release localized comics, most of the sellers don't like them, the "it's not the saame" elitism is present which is fine I guess, but it just pushes new people away from being interested. I have these comics i bought like 4 years ago but they don't even appear in the internet lol, it's like lost media or something

@deadheat @waifu It's very popular in Argentina now. Not uncommon to see students reading manga when I walk into the classroom.
Though the translations are usually subpar.

@waifu @deadheat I would honestly prefer poor translations due to being unpaid amateurs that don't have a perfect grasp of the language but they're doing their best that the fucking ivrea localizations.

@waifu @deadheat Honestly acceptable, you have the original text to compare if you think a bubble is bullshit.

@nerthos @waifu I'm surprised they don't just translate the English localization, although you could say those are subpar themselves.

@deadheat @waifu We have plenty Japanese immigrant families that we can just hire them to translate.

@hakui @deadheat @waifu I respect the duwang guys. They did the best they could and genuinely improved as the chapters went.

@nerthos@shitposter.world @hakui@tuusin.misono-ya.info @deadheat@freesoftwareextremist.com as long as they better the craft it's all good but some of them just do shit and don't care, then the manga ends up with a bad translation forever and is just sad

@waifu @nerthos @deadheat Tbh I would actually prefer that kind of translation provided the quality is decent, the boxes blend-in rather than cover up the art with ugly red and the sfx is translated too.

Heck for every page add an extra page listing the Kanji readings and meaning and sentence structure meanings.

The most stupid thing about fansub culture. People should feel obligated to release a better translation when a work got butchered by lazy retards.

@waifu @hakui @nerthos The idea would be aggressively shut down, you would need some sort of "movement" among fansub people tired of this situation to change that. I bet a maverick fansub doing it would get blacklisted and hated by the others.

@romin @waifu @nerthos @hakui What annoys me is the fact that people can't "work for free" even if they want, as in, a fansub can't release a better translation for a manga because the others find that unacceptable.
