That sucks bc but didn’t you almost finish kimi to no dogfight? Wasn’t there only an extra to release(where they finally did the deed too lol). And the new one, you just released it and it was really interesting. Thet sucks a lot. But well, there’s nothing to be done bc you got an email...
Hey, there, I was planning to answer this earlier, but I wanted to write this after my exams. Apologies for using your ask to do this.
I was also disappointed that I had to drop these series, but after thinking about it more over the past few days, my feelings around it have changed. Below are just a couple of loose thoughts surrounding scanlation that I’ve had in the past few days. It’s real messy so it’s fine if you ignore it LOL
I have to admit, I did consider releasing the rest of the chapters anonymously or under a different name, but that’s really just an even bigger ‘fuck you’ to the author and publisher. I’ve told them that I have ceased distribution of those titles, and going behind their backs to release them anyway doesn’t really line up with what I feel is morally correct. Plus, after all, if the series ever does get licensed, it would be a bigger incentive to purchase it since there is ‘new content’ that you haven’t seen before, right? Maybe?
The main issue I have with scanlation is that while it started off with translations being passed around friendship groups, it’s grown to such a large scale, with millions of people reading them every day. It’s breeded a culture where there is an expectation that ‘manga should be free’, which really does hurt the Western manga industry. I feel like readers often forget that what we’re doing is, in every sense of the word, illegal. There’s always an outrage when a series gets dropped, but why? We all, in the back of our minds, should know that these releases are illegal and that we should be paying for these. Something I’ve been wondering is how do we subvert that expectation that manga should be free?
I know this is laughably ironic coming from someone who is illegally translating and distributing manga, but these are some thoughts that’ve been simmering for a while now. I’m very new to scanlation, and my group (I say group, but I’m really the only member) is new, so being on the other side of the scanlation world has made me think of things I never did before.
I’m a firm believer that scanlation offers people the chance to discover new artists that manga reader would have never had a chance to know about before, so with that thought in mind, I will continue my scanlations.
Like I said, I’m still very new to scanlation (and I’m still very immature lmao) so my views and opinions on these matters may change in the coming months or years. It’s just the thoughts of the condy of 01/06/18.
Please note that this isn’t an attack or criticism against any scanlation groups or readers - rather a commentary of some aspects of scanlation.

Totally agree.

I think it’s really important that we talk about a very pertinent and relevant topic:
How to spot fake crystals!
“Fake” in reference to crystals can mean many different things depending on who you ask, but we’ll cover all of them. Dyed stones, heat treated, glass, man made, mislabeled/marketed, etc.
As the crystal community grows, so do the counterfeit dealers! One of the fakes I see most often are the small little bullet shaped points made into pendants, with very over exaggerated color and patterns, that are being sold at extremely low prices and readily available at places like Walmart, Five Below, and Amazon. These are either made from resin/plastic or dyed glass, and possess absolutely no metaphysical properties or vibrational energy.
Another way to spot a fake is if the price is just too good to be true. While I am able to offer stones (IG @petriquartz) at a lower price than most retail metaphysical stores, it’s usually just because those places are OVER charging for their product. While you don’t want to overpay, you also don’t want to underpay, as that is an indication that the stone you are purchasing is not genuine.
If a stone is one with a natural pattern, we want to be sure that the pattern is not completely uniform or symmetrical. A patterned stone that is often faked, as it is on the rarer and pricier side, is malachite. A good way to tell if your malachite is genuine is to see if the stripes on your stone are dark green or black. Black stripes that are very uniform are a tell-tale sign that what you have is a fake.
Now what about heat treated stones??? The vast majority of the time, heat treated amethyst is marketed and sold as citrine. While this isn’t really false, it is a little deceptive. Amethyst and citrine are both varieties of quartz. The only difference is the oxidized state of the iron impurities within the mineral. Naturally occurring citrine is quite rare, which is the result of natural heat and pressure applied to amethyst over a very long period of time. We are able to simulate that effect by heat treating pieces of amethyst in order to speed up the process.
Finally, let’s talk about man made stones. Some of the most popular man made crystals include opalite, goldstone, and blue sandstone. Some people debate whether or not these man made stones still possess any sort of metaphysical properties while not coming directly from the earth. Whether you use them in your own practice or just have them as display pieces in your house is totally up to you! Do what feels right, and if you feel called to them, there is nothing wrong with using them!
I hope that this can offer some insight to anyone just getting starting, or some guidance for anyone looking to purchase crystals!

<Story>
Una mañana tranquila, el sol poco a poco se fue colando por las ventanas despertando a un somnoliento cuerpo que con pesadez se levantaba de su cama.
Aunque las noches eran cálidas, las mañanas eran algo frías y sin aquel a su lado la sensación de fresco le recorría, obligándole a buscar por su abrigo favorito, el que siempre mantenía su olor y le hacía recordar que no había más que temer.
Se dirigió a la cocina y tranquilamente preparó su café, urgó en la caja de las galletas, regalo de un pelirrojo que hace tiempo les visitó, y devoró una sin vacilar, sabía que después sería reprendido pero sólo sería un momento, el enojo nunca duraba en él y siempre terminaba cediendo a su cara de fingido arrepentimiento -imaginó con una pequeña risa-.
Esa había sido su rutina desde que dejaron las cacerías. Muchas cosas cambiaron, pensó él mientras caminaba hacia la ventana y tomaba un trago, pero por más que recordara no podía encontrar pizca alguna de extrañar lo que antes hacía.
Si alguien le hubiera dicho que las cosas podrían haber sido así desde mucho antes lo hubiera aceptado sin bromear, pero quizá era necesario pasar tal sufrimiento para poder disfrutar de la dicha que ahora tenían, además que una promesa con su maestro era algo que no se podía quebrantar.
Pero ahora, nada de eso ya importaba, los años que pasaron, todas las lágrimas y dolor que atravesaron ya no significaban nada mientras estuvieran juntos y, si la vida lo quería, sería su pacífica historia hasta el término de sus vidas.
El sólo imaginarlo dibujó una sonrisa en su rostro que trató de ocultar con un sorbo mientras, a lo lejos, el chico de la cicatriz desviaba su mirada hacía él y le sonreía animadamente, haciéndole sentir que el mundo era tan brillante, tanto como la primera vez que vio esa sonrisa ser dirigida para él, únicamente para él.
Sorbió un poco más de ese dulce sabor a café, tan dulce como el chico del que se enamoró.

Esto fue lo que imaginé al ver esta imagen, un lugar donde Giyuu y Sabito viven tranquilamente, y no pude evitar querer escribir sobre ello.
Perdonen que sea una historia corta o si mi redacción no es la mejor, pero espero les haya gustado aunque sea un poco.
