Hopefully Sense Scans quickly finds good translators and editors...

This is sad news. Those guys are absolute legends. They have earned their rest though.

Not into Kingdom yet but I will ask.

Legal issues or well-deserved rest? ( I mean why they stopped translating ).

It's all explained in the link at the top of the post. We are probably going into the dark ages as we did with one piece after Jaimini Box canned it.

Well. At least I will have some fun with 600+ chapter before I join you guys in the agony

Jaiminis dropped OP because of legal issues.

Yea it's a good time to pick it up. Hopefully, sensescans will get new translators who are as good as the turnip farmers.

Its hard in general. Considering internet is no longer kid in glove anymlre we have legal, corporate who are into serious money making.

Days of piracy has ended , its partly because google has capability to strike down anyone who possess legal copyright .

I guess this would be as good a time as any to ask,

Does anyone know if there are paid magazine subscriptions available for people who want to read English scans? I subscribe to Viz but they don’t cover Kingdom or Berserk which are the only two manga I desperately crave lol.

Last I checked Kingdom was still not licenced to be translated to English. It's ridiculous given how popular it is. It's consistently among the top 5 selling manga each yr.

Curse you year 2020!
Anyway it was a blessing they lit the fire that got so many people invested in Kingdom.Hopefully one day, Kingdom will get license by an offical english translator company like Viz.

Well deserved rest
..
It's not legea cuz there's not official English kingdom manga

Sad news indeed ! Except name issue in the first few chapters , Kingdom translation was lit. Hope that new guys will keep that standard.

The thing is that we still have the official translation for OP and such, but I don't know if we have any for Kingdom

 

[FaradaySloth]

They deserve it but damn kinda makes me mad at the thought we could get worse translators who make the overall experience worse (just in different formatting and presenting characters personality) plus Kingdom is closing 70 million in sales and yet an English company still refuses to license it. I don’t know what it will take but it’s getting extremely annoying now.

Anyway, rest well TurnipFarmers, if anything makes you guys feel better, you’re the best translator bunch I’ve read, never felt a love for a series like Kingdom since the first time I watched FMA:B six years ago.

They have done a great job so far and they deserve this break!!
Hope someone really good takes over...
