Is there a certain way that we have to save the cleaned pages because I may be able to help out.

Sorry, what do you mean by "save the cleaned pages"?

If you mean something like how other scan groups say "cleaners must must must save in .psd format" then no, we have no such restrictions, as long as the page gets cleaned then I can work with it~

If you mean something about how to acquire raws from the site, don't worry, that's taken care of as well.

If it's something else, please send another ask (preferably off anon but anon is ok too)

Recruiting cleaners/redrawers!

Update: Applications are closed.

Hello everyone, sorry for the delays in getting the manga translation out! The main problem is our cleaners are very busy, so we’d like to find some willing volunteers to help out!

If you are interested in working on The Lying Cicada who Hated the Blue Sky manga and feel fairly confident in your cleaning/redrawing abilities, please contact us!

As for the overall difficulty of the work, as far as manga goes, I believe this series tends to be fairly light in terms of cleaning.

Previous experience is recommended but not required. You can use watever program you want. We use Skype to communicate, so you must have an account there.

If you’re interested, please send us an ask or contact raspomme on Skype (username: raspomme)
