Physical violence like Kaname draining Yuuki after she was attacked and desperately needed blood, just to teach her a lesson? Oh, the double standards.

Kaname drinking blood and Yuuki gasping versus Zero violently mauling her and Yuuki crying out in pain whilst covered in blood and holding her ripped clothes together?? And you wanna talk about double standards??

Yall are the ones that always complained about the Kaname scene, but now that it's Zero being 10 times worse, you think it's sexy and don't care. That's a double standard.

Like imagine looking at Yuuki's face and thinking these two scenes are the same. Delusional behaviour.

JUST A MATTER OF DECENCY

I’ve been silent up till now, but i think it’s the time for me, as AeF’s admin, to say something. I started AeF scanlations team 4 years ago and with the help of VK’s ending, that was really disappointing, there was no one willing to help us with VK’s special chapters translations. It was hard for us to find a translator but we wanted to provide a service to the fandom no matter what, because despite everything we really enjoyed (and we still do) Vampire Knight’s story.

We have been here for a very long time, for 4 years as i said before, and despite we went through hard times sometimes, despite so many people left us, we are still here with a wonderful staff that we put together with so many difficulties.

I saw just yesterday that we have now two new scanlations team. Yeah, two. I’m fine with this, really. Having more translations, having releases faster than ours is appreciated and i think it’s useful to the fandom. Even in the past there was two different teams working on Vampire Knight and all of us inside the fandom was fine with this.

There’s just one thing, or two, i’m not okay with. But first there’s a point that i want to highlight. We have been always putting our effort in order to release a proper translation, and we need time to do it. Yeah, because in addiction to a translator we have a proofreader from japanese as well. Our proofreader checks every single word, every single sentence, just because she is well aware that VK is a delicate matter. For each proofreadings, in fact, she always provides us a “vocabulary”, where she explains her corrections, her choices, and what “thorny” kanjis mean. In addiction to this there’s the fact that each of us has his own real life. I really feel in the position to defend my own staff because i was hit where it hurts. Just because we seem slow this doesn’t mean that we really are. It’s just that we want to do a proper job. You can check yourself how accurate our translations are, just buy the first volume of Vampire Knight Memories and see that we have always released unbiased translations (because, you know, both the translator and the proofreader have nothing to do with the fandom). You will be able to do the same when the second volume will be released. And when i say this  i’m talking especially with these new groups. Now, that being said, i really hope that there are people out there that will keep enjoying our translations because i can assure that we have always been working with our whole heart. But now let’s talk about what really upset me.

What upsets me is the timing. Just when a controversial chapter comes out, just when the zeki is starting to become solid, just when there is a new war inside the fandom with new factions, we get two other scanlations group. Two, at the same time. Of course this is not a coincidence. I suspect that they are doing it for the controversy, not for the fandom and this is what annoy me the most. The fandom surely needs more translations but the ship war should not have an impact on them, this is what i truly believe.

Lastly, what bothered me is seeing the other team’s one online, on magafox for example. To me this is playing dirty . I’m not saying readers online are our property, but uploading every chapters online is what we’ve always been doing. It’s just a matter of decency towards our staff that was properly convenient for you all till now. If you’ll threw the guantlet down i don’t have any intention to take up it. We will keep doing our job as usual with our head held high.

I was re-reading VKM13 and this part is still gross. 

Zero pinning her to the bed, shouting in her face; the way Yuuki is crying out in pain, clutching her clothes to her body...

The whole thing is just sad to look at.

No one's "assuming your stance," people have read your posts, I've seen you defend Night 61, so when you talk about how "gross" a scene is with zeki but not your own ship it's a little hypocritical. Not to mention you reblogging a post about how Kaname "always asked for consent" and conveniently ignoring the rape bite of 91 where Yuuki literally slapped Kaname to stop him because she didn't want it. The zeki scene of ch13 was bad, but at least I acknowledge that as a zeki fan. Can you as a yume?

Short answer? Yes. 

I acknowledge that Kaname bit Yuuki without consent in Chapter 90 in order to trigger Zero’s memories. 

I acknowledge that Yuuki slapped Kaname because she knew that Kaname was trying to return Zero’s memories to him. 

I acknowledge that it was a shitty scene, but at the very least, I understood why Hino put that scene in. 

And that’s not me excusing that scene or any other, I’m just saying that I understand what Hino was trying to convey in those moments. 

In VKM13 however, I don’t get the motivations or the rationale besides Hino wanting to show that Zero was being exceptionally shit. 

Zero pins Yuuki to the bed and screams in her face because she didn’t want to talk?

That’s it???

Hino drew what is literally her most violent and bloody bite scene because Yuuki avoided a question???? 

I don’t like Zero’s actions, but I would have at least given him some benefit of the doubt if he had a decent enough reason for acting the way he did.
