Okay, so we worked some stuff out with /a/non. We’ll be jointing with them on Kazumi for chapters 2+. You can read the full IRC chat log below, but the tl;dr is that a) he’ll be taking care of the translations and we’ll do the rest, b) he’ll be getting unprocessed raws from that guy on PD and supplying them to us, and c) chapter 1 will be re-done when tank raws come out.
Regarding Kazumi Magica

Madoka Magica c01
So finally, here it is. Madoka Magica chapter 1. We went with “Puella Magi” for two reasons:
- “Magical Girl” sounds retarded, and
- RNG said so.
As for other random stuff that’s somewhat related:
- We are doing Puella Magi Kazumi Magica, a spinoff of Madoka Magica. While we did find raws off PD, they had watermarks every 10 pages, so if you have access to any non-watermarked raws, please tell us. Otherwise, Shini’s going to have to ‘shop them out, which is quite a pain (although it shouldn’t be as bad as redrawing).
- Credits page was a choice between MORNING RESCUE and huge Kyubey face. Which one did RNG decide on? You’ll have to download and see for yourself.

キタ━━━(゜∀゜)━━━!!!!!
[21:12:25] <@Medaka> uh
[21:12:30] <@Medaka> is there kyubey in this manga
[21:12:34] <+blah1234> probably
[21:12:35] <&Shini-tan> yes
[21:12:38] <@Medaka> KYUBEY IS THE DEVIL
Anyways, Haruhi 25 is almost done; just needs to be typeset and QCed/second pass edit. We’ll be doing Madoka vol. 1 while we wait for Tsunamu to translate more Haruhi. He’s been busy lately.
Shini-tan: Play this while you wait.

[18:10:07] <&Shini-tan> >pd crashes
[18:10:16] <&Shini-tan> CLEARLY THIS IS KYUBEY’S FAULT
[18:10:18] <+blah1234> rofl
[18:10:24] <+blah1234> speaking of madoka, theres a madoka manga
[18:10:29] <&Shini-tan> yeah I know
[18:10:34] <+blah1234> lol
[18:10:37] <&Shini-tan> first volume came out recently
[18:10:38] <+blah1234> see if you can find it on pd
[18:10:41] <&Shini-tan> that’s what I was looking for
[18:10:43] <+blah1234> ah

We’re interested in doing Madoka; give us raws.

lol second semester has started; some of us will consequently be busy. Expect minormajor slowdowns in our releases for the next little while.
[20:48:25] <@Hats> guys anything you want to say?
[20:48:28] <+blah1234> not really
[20:48:32] <&Shini-tan> “ubb is horrible”
[20:48:37] <+blah1234> just keep complaining about ubb
[20:48:39] <@Hats> GIVE US MONEY
Blah edit: Bell/CRTC: GDIAF kthxbai
we need money
If you’ve been on tokyotosho.info lately, you would notice that everyone in Canada basically got hit by the duopoly ISPs that are Bell and Rogers. What this means for this group, which has the majority of its members in Canada, is that we’re all paying out our noses for bandwidth. (Shini is paying $40/month for a mere 25 GB of data transfer per month, and speeds of 5 mbps/800 kbps.)
In other words, we’d appreciate any free money (most people call them “donations”), since it would help with the arduous work that is scanlating well. In other words, support good English and donate!

A release only one day after the previous one, what.
[20:56:08] <@Hats> guys does anyone have anything to say about this chapter

Haruhi c21
Man, QCs, how do those work.
[20:08:43] <%Hats> we are good enough that qc’s are unnecessary
[20:08:53] <+blah1234> :/
[20:08:56] <+blah1234> we’re being gg then
[20:08:58] <+Hisa> lol
[20:09:00] <%Hats> no
[20:09:13] <%Hats> koda believes that qc’s are unnecessary because the editors and stuff should get good
[20:09:24] <+Nored> ^
[20:09:33] <+blah1234> nored, no
[20:09:51] <+Hisa> lmao
[20:10:25] <%Hats> anyways in our case it’s because we actually have good enough english that it doesn’t matter
[20:10:35] <%Hats> that and none of us can even tell if shini makes mistakes ._.
[20:10:41] <+blah1234> lol
[20:10:45] <+blah1234> like >dark blue
[20:11:00] <+Hisa> o.o
[20:11:01] <&Shini-tan> if it wasn’t forced grayscale you’d notice
[20:11:21] <+blah1234> tsu, one time shini typeset half a chapter in dark blue instead of black
[20:11:25] <+Hisa> lmao
[20:11:30] <+blah1234> and it ended up as really dark grey cause greyscale
[20:11:33] <+blah1234> so we didnt notice
[20:11:40] <+Hisa> how did you even find out o_O
[20:11:43] <+blah1234> she told us
[20:11:46] <+Hisa> oh, lmao
[20:11:47] <%Hats> lolwut
[20:11:49] <&Shini-tan> (I realized halfway through and changed colour to black)
[20:11:51] <+Hisa> ahhh
[20:11:52] <%Hats> nice
[20:11:59] <&Shini-tan> but it was too f5 to go back and change the previous pages
