Any other /a/nons picking up Franken Fran next week? I haven't read it in a while and it'll be nice to have a physical copy to read. I hope it's not horribly butchered.
You can post more anime girls drinking.
I couldn't get into this. Everything always ended horribly.
>>137408980
HOLD THE FUCKING PHONE
Someone is trying to bring over Franken fran?
>>137409262
That was the point, it's a black comedy.
>>137409262
Yeah it's great.
>>137409424
I don't buy a lot of printed stuff but apparently Seven Seas is bringing it over. I don't know their track record, so I'm hoping they do a good job.
>>137409482
Yeah fuck that.
>>137409682
From what I've heard, they're in charge of the localization of Monster Musume. And from what I've read of that, they're localization team is strong. So I have high hopes for seven seas.
>>137410060
Oh, good. That makes me optimistic.
I remember Fran was one of the first things that I read after coming to this shit hole, and I never thought it was getting localized. I'm excited.
>>137408980
Fuck yeah! Those Halloween threads were a blast.You're telling me they've come out with new material? Or just a (finally) official localization of the existing stuff?
>>137408980
>Any other /a/nons picking up Franken Fran next week?
This gave me a false hope of an adaption.
>>137411270
It's getting localized.
>>137411442
Never ever.
>seven seas
>>137411442
Ahh fuck goddamnit. I got excited for a second there.
>>137408980
Anon you just made my fucking weekend with this news. Holy shit.
>>137408980
I would have preferred individual volumes instead of the omnibuses but either way I'm extremely excited to pick it up next week.Can you post more Franken Fran pics?
>>137412514
bump
Anime girls drinking huh.
Great news.
Oh, Franken Fran is licensed in English now? That's nice.
>>137412514
Sucks. She has 6 arms
>no sip
Im not mad. Im disappointed.
>>137412514
Where are the other two arms?
>>137409682
>>137410060
>Monster Musume
>Seven Seas
Enjoy your puns.
>>137412404
This. We need more Fran.
>>137420634
Oh no.
>>137408980
>>137408980
I'll buy it, sure. As long as it doesn't cut into my whiskey fund.
So, will there be any protests due to pic related?
>>137422438
I doubt it. It looks like most people didn't even know it was being released.
I already have all volumes in German and Japanese, I thought it was quiet popular in the US? Out of all countries usually Germany is the last one to get a localization, especially for such a rather obscure title.
>>137422512
>Out of all countries usually Germany is the last one to get a localization
While Germany is no France or Italy, it does get some series before they come to the U.S. Classic shoujo like Rose of Versailles and Georgie, for example.
>>137422512
I always thought the US got the short end of the stick when it came to Manga releases. I always figured Europe had it better.
>>137420998
Fran is more important thank whiskey anon.
>>137422561
> it does get some series before they come to the U.S.

That's actually really cool, might buy my sister some volumes of it.
>I always thought the US got the short end of the stick when it came to Manga releases. I always figured Europe had it better.
France is probably the best selection of localized manga. Germany has the bigger selection in yaoi though for some reason.
>>137411677
Holy kek
>>137423208
Actually, Georgie might've just been scanlated into German first. I thought it was published in Germany because the English scanlation is from German, but the credits page says it's from German scanlations. Sorry, it's been years since I read it.
That said, I heard that German Tokyo Pop did some series that never came to the U.S., though I'm not sure which.
>>137422512
>I already have all volumes in German and Japanese
Is it true the German one is censored heavily?
And sometimes Germany does get obscure titles.
I would never have bet money that SamFlam gets a dub, but it exists.
>>137408980
Seven Seas put out Vampire Bund and the only thing they did was to slap a sticker onto Mina's bare ass on the first edition of volume 3.
Rest assured they won't mess with anything on the inside of Franken Fran.
>no scanlators want to translate Kigitsus other works
>>137423891
kek
They fucked up Monster Musume.
I hope you're speaking of just that one series.
>>137423940
Strike Witches had all its nipples intact.
>>137424009
I'm not talking about the actual panels/drawings themselves just the translations and what the characters say.
>>137423940
Of the volumes that I've bought, they've all had nipples included. I didn't get up to theitsy-bitsypart, but that's the main complaint I've heard about their release of the series.
>>137424085
See >>137424085
The drawings/panels aren't what I'm worried about, it's what the characters said. If you change how someone speaks you can mess up their whole character just with minor changes.
>>137423931
Fucking. This. I don't know moon.
>Helen ESP printed in english never
That's a shame too, since it has a crossover with Frankenfran.
>>137423940
How exactly? They gave her an accent that doesn't match her original dialogue?
>>137408980
Frankenstein was the name of the scientist, not the monster.
>>137424877
Not from what I can tell in this series, but recently they have used lines and shoehorned in puns to make a joke, while also making the character say something out of line to make you laugh.
>>137425002
Hmm, then again, I feel like if I don't get this now it's going to just shoot u[ in price. I just recently wanted to own all of Mushishi in english, & some of those volumes are around $75 now.
Damn, what do I do...
>>137425087
Buy the untranslated manga and read the scanalations?
That's what I plan on doing.
>>137425252
I would rather have a physical copy though. Maybe I should just wait for someone to compare the fan translations to the retail release before I make up my mind.
>>137423799
Yeah dubs are fucking cancer, I wanted to watch umimachi diary in Germany but not a single theater had it without dubs, fucking crazy.
not sure about the censoring though, let me upload some pictures
>>137423674
Seriously though how come you guys still don't have Punpun and it's already 2016?
>>137423799
>>137425307
The untranslated manga is a physical copy tho.
you get to support the mangaka and have your manga with proper translations that fit the character.
You get to have your cake and eat it too.
>>137425395
>>137425470
>>137425508
Mind posting some dialogue?
>>137425533
Nevermind, didn't notice that was the german version.
>>137408980
Didn't it go to shit after Fran's imouto appeared?
>>137427047
>there are people who don't like Veronica
What the fuck?
>>137427047
NO IT DID NOT.
ALL 3 SISTERS ARE PERFECT.
I WILL FITE YOU
