Thread: Should i try Scanlating Rebirth

Well its been mentioned many(maybe thats an exxageration) of times here and i've noticed thats it never been scanlated online so i was wondering if maybe i should scanlate it one of these days, although obviously i have never scanlated anything before and dont really know how much time it would take, but i currently have i think 7 of the 19 chapters in my possession.

Just want to know what you guys think about it, as in yea or ney, and yea's just for the heck of it cause i dont want to start it and then mess up miserably

go for it =D

can't hurt to try.

Is there anything i should look into before scanning it in? One thing is i wont be able to clean em so they'll just be subbed scans that look wierd, should i tear out the pages so that scanning them is easier?

eh...I wouldn't know ^_^;;

asking a scanlation group would definately be a smarter idea.

Hey this was my idea, I was going to do this as soon as I get my scanner, and Raganarok to.!!!

I have both ragnarok and rebirth, well i'd prefer someone else to do it rather than me, i'd have more trust in them than myself, although scanners are really cheap, skip out on a dynasty warriors expansion and you got yourself a pretty nice scanner, 30$ is all you need. I'll scan something tuesday and then upload it somewhere and then you guys can tell me what you think.

once you scan it i mite be able to help you w/the editing thoughgt i wanna look at your scans first...

hey, if you guys are seriously going to scanlate Rebirth, i think i can help translating it a bit i have volume 01 to 15++ in my possession now

when you say youre going to scan it, are you just going to scan the tokyopop volumes (if so its going to be like the planetes and battle royale mangas here)? or do you have the raws and and are going to translate it?

Yeah im going to scan from the tokyo pop volumes because thats the only place i can actually get it from... where i would obtain a raw for a korean manga.... beats me, so yeah i'd scan them from the volumes what i was asking was whether it'd be better for me to tear out the pages and then scan them like that, tear as in take out the cover and the glue binding the pages together without actually "tearing" it, although that might take a while longer than just taking the book and scanning it

on another thought... i could just take it to Kinkos and have them scan it for me and put it onto a cd, that'd be rediculously easier for all the chapters that would be being scanned in.
