So, I wanted to take the time to clear some stuff up and inform everyone on the future of Manga Chronicle.
Firstly, it really is just me, beri, working on these releases. I get the raws and translations from different sites and proof read, clean, typeset and quality check all by myself. A release will usually take a full day or two to do all these steps and I just don’t have any free time anymore. That is why I need more staff.
There has also been something else on my mind and that is Manga Chronicle isn’t, I feel, very ethical as I do outsource raws and translation. This is something that has been really weighing down on me as I don’t feel like I’m legit. More staff would really help mould Manga Chronicle into the group that I want it to be. Not only would we have a regular schedule but we can become a self-sufficient and ethical group.
Something big is also right around the corner for me. I will be leaving for a 10-month high school exchange in Japan next week! Getting ready for this big adventure has really swamped my time and I really won’t have much time while I’m over there so that is why I really needed to get applications out before I left.
I hope all of this helps clear up some things and explains some of the asks I have answered. From this point, all series will be on hold until I can get more staff. So, if you love Tsubaki-Chou or any of our other series, please consider joining!!
I really really am desperate so even if you don’t have any experience, or can’t commit to lots of work, please just consider applying! I really have loved making y’all happy with these releases and now it’s time for y’all to make me happy by helping out! I hope to hear from some of you through the google form on our join us page!
