VIZ Media Licensed Series Dropped
February 11th, 2012

Dear MangaStream supporter,

It's with a heavy heart that I make the following announcement. MangaStream will no longer be releasing the following series:

- Naruto
- Bleach
- One Piece
- Hunter x Hunter
- Katekyo Hitman Reborn
- Claymore
- D.Gray-man

VIZ Media has demanded that we end our scanlation work for all of the above. This comes despite our best efforts to pursuade fans into supporting official distributors by being the only group to actively prevent an archive from forming on their website through the removal of chapters that are older than a couple weeks. They've succeeded in little more than invoking inconvenience to the community as their digital magazine missed the mark; it runs several issues behind and only features 3 of the above series. So long as their product continues to be slow, awkward and inferior to something a ragtag group of nobodies can churn out in a few hours - fans will continue to look to scanlation groups and aggregators for their weekly fix.

The aggressive and escalating nature of their threats have forced our hand into removing the content. MangaStream will no longer be posting full scanlations for any of the aforementioned series, we will instead focus our efforts onto the series we do that are not licensed by VIZ Media (you can assume everything currently on our directory will be continued).

Our final message to our loyal JUMP audience will be this:
Thank you for supporting us over the past two years and making Mangastream your home away from home. It was a pleasure sharing our time with fans who were just as passionate and dedicated as we were.

Although MangaStream will no longer be hosting any of the Jump series, if it's something our fanbase is interested in, we're considering leveraging our connections to bring you accurate spoiler summaries for the Jump chapters as early as possible. We know this isn't much, but hope it can whet your appetite until the dozens of aggregators release the official Jump chapters on Wednesday.

Naruto manga youtube videos stopped about a year ago if i'm correct due the copyrights.

Anyway, the naruto and bleach website i gave, didn't use mangastream translations back when they were founded by the site hoster.

@foxx check out nyaa.eu for torrents on the manga's...
Not sure how well the quality of those are but it's worth checking out ;)
Also many of the manga's come from them I bet it's gonna be a big impact on manga's...
As Viz is one of the main manga translators.

They are not only obliged to only use mangastreams scan, like now mangareader is using mangazones scans, just because mangastream is now gone doesn't mean we can't read our jump manga's, don't be retarded.

Guess I wasn't clear enough, I don't care which READER are you gonna use, I was rather looking for new groups which are gonna have quality scans and quality translations.

You are the one who cannot seem to read I would say...

Almost every site used MangaStream's release or translations (for good reason) and now that they have C&D there will not be any "Good quality" releases until some other groups pick up there series who understands the quirks in each series and find the right way to translate them etc.

Even after a group picks up the series there is nothing to say that the release will be of "good quality", look for example at MangaZone who are the only group of note that have picked up the big 3 and yet their quality is nowhere near MangaStream. (download each groups versions of past releases and compare them side by side)

Spoiler:

A few examples of derp translations from the latest releases I read (since I'm bored)

Naruto:
"... Did't we confiscate that as well?" - did't
"Why are you into our group just to get in the way between sasuke and karin" - I can do English good...
"Because I'm not able to resist to cut them apart when I see them together...!" - derp sentence structure again
"If you don't like me to be here," - could be written better
"You are not shinobies from Konoha..." - Two things, should be Shinobis if anything but given the series history, should have just used ninja as it's been established as they are the "Ninja of Konohagakure" since forever ago.

Bleach:
"He went to buy jump and coffee milk." - meh english
"If they were throwing it away it must be unpopular." - not a translation error but different sized text to fit the bubble when not referring to inflections to what is being said is an error.

All:
They cut off the top/bottom buffers between the edge of the panel and the edge of the paper ~_~

The point was that there will be no good quality releases for a while now... =/

Also, screw using Reader websites for new releases, just get them from the scanlators.
Much quicker, normally better quality as some downscale and others add watermarks of their own ¬_¬
That way you also support the actually scanlators that did the work instead of some random website that just profits off them by taking their releases and adds advertisements all over the place...
