'Sup.
CCI raws should be stable. I couldn't get a PF subscription, though I can order specific issues from Amazon if you guys really want it, thought it would cost at least $40 for the shipping.
2400p (mf) (ss) (shrta)
1200p (mf) (ss) (shrta)
PSD source (mf) (ss) (shrta)
raw (mf) (ss) (shrta)
The Story isn't continuous. I want to know what is the real number of chapter
ReplyDeleteNo one knows.
DeleteThere is a hypothesized order at http://jb2448.info/Magazine_Scans
DeleteSo, about your Pokespe scanlation plan...
ReplyDeleteWhile BW will start in volume 43, it probably won't go anywhere near where you scanlated last by volume 45. And the chapters you haven't scanned were already scanned from the viz releases....
Have you reached a decision on that?
wait so for one issue on amazon, it will cost you 40 dollars for shipping. holy crap.
ReplyDeleteYeah, the base cost of shipping is 3000 yen, and these aren't the days when 100 yen = $1 anymore. The upside of is that each additional item only takes 300 yen, so I can average out the costs by waiting for many issues, but Amazon doesn't sell lots of PF issues.
DeleteReiZerou from jb2448.info has bought the newest Pokémon Fan from eBay and says that he could try scanning it.
ReplyDeleteIt would take about one week for it to arrive and the comment was posted on August 30th here:

Could you translate it once ReiZerou has scanned it?
Oops, I forgot to respond to it. Yes, but tell him to try to debind the magazine and scan it in 300dpi or greater.
DeleteAny particular resolution? 2400 pixels as height or more I guess?
Delete2400h or greater is fine.
DeleteReiZerou won't debind the magazine, but it is 300dpi. Will you still translate it if it is enough HQ? I'm sure some editing with an image editing software will fix the minor flaws.
Delete"I actually scanned it yesterday, but there's bit of a problem. The computer that my scanner is connected to is very very old and it crashed after I had scanned the pages. : ( I'm trying my hardest to get it working, but it's possible that I will have to do it again with a different computer and maybe even scanner. It doesn't work on this laptop I'm on now, even though I have the software and the driver. And it took me one and a half hours, so I really wouldn't like to do it again.
I didn't debind the magazine, because it's my precious first imported Japanese magazine with a PokéSpe chapter in it, and I absolutely hate destroying stuff. And since I've never done it, there's a possibility that it would turn out to be a disaster. The scans still turned out pretty good I think, and they're 300 dpi. There's a shadow every two pages that doesn't get on the way at all, and there's blur on the other pages that only takes just a bit away." - ReiZerou

I hope this means that subsequent magazines will be debinded.
DeleteYou can debind by applying any heat source (hair dryer, iron, microwave) to the binding, and the cheap glue should melt in seconds.
Also, you're already killing the binding by bending it to scan the magazine.
DeleteI'm not ReiZerou, just a reposter (sorry if I confused you while asking for resolution specs, just tried to help ReiZerou out, maybe if I hade made the quotation more clear in the other post it would have been better).
DeleteAlso, from what I have understood from reading the comment section on jb2448.info this looks like a one time thing.
If future Fan scans would help, I can order and get issues for $20 or so at a local import shop, and can debind/scan. Might be cheaper than Amazon prices.
DeleteThis commenting better work this time...
ReplyDeleteI sent the raws to you e-mail, hope you got them!
~ ReiZerou
Just in case you didn't get ReiZerou's e-mail, the raws are on my website (and here's a zip download link).
ReplyDeleteJB2448, the scans you have on your site are cropped versions, which is probably fine for scanlating it. Just thought that I'd point out that the scans ReiZerou originally sent /a/non were untouched. The original untouched scans gives 100% editing freedom, but I don't think it makes any difference though sice the raws are nicely cropped.
