Now, I thought that I was going to do this by the volume, but since I'm a novice when it comes to this kind of thing, I thought I'd throw this one out and see how it is received before barreling onward, where more mistakes will need to be corrected.
This is also just an attempt to try and see who is interested.
But, enough of my bullshit, here it is: JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Part 4 Vol. 29 Chapter 1

I was wondering why someone was releasing such an old chapter...but, this good! Good that someone is willing to make those old scans a little easier to read, lol. I don't remember about this volume/chapter, so I will have go and compare it to the archived version I have in storage--but I'd bet that yours will be better, lol.. So, continue if you can! I like to collect the best quality scanlations for any series--and Jojo is in desperate need.
ReplyDeleteThe first two volumes have been completely retranslated and edited from the original japanese, and the second volume was only done a month or two ago.
ReplyDeleteNo idea if that project's still going.
Yep, vols 29 & 30 are already redone by someone, so maybe you should begin from vol 31. Great project btw, Part 4 being my favorite and all.
ReplyDeleteWell, I wanted to do it all,, but I am planning to have a chapter out every 3 or so days, so please endure my selfishness for the time being.
ReplyDeleteAlso if you could please point out any errors/critiques I would be most appreciative, as I want to do this manga justice by having archive worthy releases.
Hey man, it's good to know someone's interested in picking up Jojo Part 4. My only advice is that you should use the Wild Words font (it's all over the internet) and a bigger font size. Thanks again!
ReplyDeleteI'll applaud this effort of putting out some decent trans of this storyline. Only suggestions I'd make is to piece together the double-pages as image (such as pages 09 + 10) and to go with the wild words font like the previous person suggested (although the current font size seems fine to me, when full-screened).
ReplyDeleteAlso I don't know if it was a matter of the source translation or not, but it feels as though there's something missing when the delinquent says he'll shave jojo's hair, and jojo takes it as an insult (like, it needed to be "i'll shave your stupid looking hair" or something to that effect?).
"as one image" it's supposed to read up top. Proofreading has failed me today.
