the scanlation is better than the official translation by miles I'm reeling at the quality difference

Tshd scanlation open on my laptop. Official Japanese version open on my tablet. Hard copy official English translation open on the table. I'm multitrack drifting to compare/contrast the three and these are my wild plans between now and 2025

#all the sound effects lovingly redrawn by the scanlation CLRDer are incredible #the official one just makes small translation additions under the japanese sound effects #which I am generally fine with but well done translated sound effects make SUCH a big difference #and in a manga this audio-heavy those details go a long way #also. sometimes TL notes are much better than a wonky attempt at translating something untranslatable. the official manga does Not realize #the power of a TL note. I've had my immersion broken by awkward translation in the official english version so many times #whereas the TL notes in the scanlation deepen my enjoyment #I'm ofc going to keep buying the official bc I want to support this series but the scanlation has my entire heart #self reblog #tshd #hgsn
