An Actual Update on what’s going on with the manga and all that
So my chaotic reactions to Koyasu Voices Levin And I Knew It All Along aside,
hi. So I have some really big stuff going on. I can’t really work on the manga, but I’m going to try. Here’s what’s pretty much going on with it:
Currently, I don’t have access to my desktop, which is where my updated rescans up to volume fourteen are. I still need to do my check up on 14-16 and do rescans as needed (but I can look through those and label them from the laptop). I do not have access to my books or a scanner. All of that is on hold.
I need to rescan some stuff from the next chapter too, so that’s also an issue. However, as you guys are probably aware by now, we also don’t have a translator at present, so we can’t release chapters anyway (after the next one, FE5 chapter 1 and chapter 36/37). The plan was to continue cleaning in the meantime, and I’m going to be looking over the non-updated raws I had stored on a cloud service on my laptop to see what can be cleaned without rescans. I’ll be sending the pages off to be cleaned as needed so all the cleaners can work on the manga while I’m stuck in this situation.
Unfortunately, this also means we will probably not be releasing any chapters - even the translated ones. Because my cleaned pages of 36/37 are on the desktop, I don’t have access to those, and I won’t be able to release chapter 1 of FE5 for the same reason (and because of any potential necessary rescans, which are usually done to fix a page having slipped a bit during the original scan or because I can lessen the spine blur).
Depending on my plans and how they go and what happens, it could be up to the next three months before I can do anything - if not more in the worst case scenario. Unfortunately with how chaotic my situation is, I really don’t have set in stone plans. I will be posting a few cleaned panels/pages here and there for progress and to help hold y’all over, but it’s the best I can do right now being out of range and access to my stuff.
I’m sure it’s annoying at this point how many things come up that prevent us from progressing, and hell, believe me when I say it’s been gnawing at me that we’re technically a year behind schedule as is due to that last hiatus, but while I keep to myself for the most part regarding my life, I’m currently in absolutely no position, physically, to release much. ChildofDain has mentioned it on the SF forum, but like she said, my life isn’t getting better - it’s getting worse. Unfortunately it’s prevented me from getting this stuff out for a long time and I’m exhausted of it, but luckily I don’t know how to quit because I’m too attached to these projects and I’ve put too much of my life into them already to stop without seeing them completed.
I’m also going to do my best to clean what I can on the laptop, but it’s a lot more difficult to do so without my desktop and having super easy and instant access to everything I need.
But we all know me dying is the only thing that’s gonna stop me from getting all this shit done, so even if it takes ten years, I’m sorry it’s taking so long and I’m still not dropping it.
Repeat, I am so sorry it’s taking so long. For everything. All of this. At this point with how long it’s been, I’m going to feel bad about this forever even when we’re finished with Oosawa and probably FE5, but ffs I’m too dedicated to stop now. But that’s also why I’m willing to post some stuff here and there! I love FE4, FE5 and all the mangas and I’ll do whatever I can to make Jugdral more accessible to everyone.
In the meantime, I hope you all plan to support Kaga with Vestaria Saga when it comes out next year!
Fala Scans is alive. I’m just in the worst position of my life that I’ve ever been in and it’s getting in my friggin’ way.
