Seems like this one was translated from Chinese - they named a character "Yuan".

>>24296
Oh sorry. This one should work now.

There we go. I think this is ready for release.

>>24297

I noticed one issue. On the credits page, you have the title as "Ephermeral War". It should be "Ephemeral War".

>>24301
I corrected it.

Hello.

It is an honor for the original author to have noticed the work produced here, and for that author to think well enough of it to adopt as an official English adaptation. Your work, and the work of other mangaka in the yuri genre, is what inspires us to spend our time and effort here. It is flattering to receive any kind of recognition from the source of that inspiration.

We do the work of creating English versions of Yuri manga because we love it, and want to share it with people who don't have the ability or opportunity to read the original. It is not our intention to harm your livelihood, or the livelihood of any mangaka. We want only for your work to gain wider recognition, and to spread the love of manga and yuri.

We understand that there is no legal basis for us to carry out this work. We will remove any copy of your work from this site, if you request that we do so. If you wish to host a copy of it as an official English version, then we will have done our part in giving people who would otherwise not be able to read it an opportunity to do so.

Because there is no legal basis for the work we do, we never expect any sort of compensation. Being recognized by the author of the comics we work on is already more compensation than any of us could ask for. It is with great humility that we make only one request. We always strive for our releases to be worthy of the original, and it would be the highest honor for the original author to adopt our English version as an official release. In every release we make, we include a credits page that contains the names of the contributors who worked to create the English version. It would be a great honor for the names on that page to be included in the copy that you distribute.

Thank you for reaching out to us. We hope that our activities here have not negatively impacted you or any mangaka. We hope that the work we do here has served the only the purpose of helping to spread the love of manga and yuri. We thank you, and all yuri mangaka, from the depths of our heart for providing us with the works that we love and enjoy.

Hello.
Thank you for your sincere reply.

I don't speak English.
So, I honestly don't know if you guys' translations of the yuri manga I drew are accurate or inaccurate.
I can't know for myself.
I'm sorry.

Here's my current situation.
I published a lily manga about 10 years ago.
I recently made a personal relaunch and published an e-book on Kindle.
So I thought about making an English version, and I learned that it had already been translated here and published for free.
It costs a lot of money to make an English version.
Many people have already read the English version translated here for free.
If I spent a lot of money to make an English version of the book and put it out on Kindle, no one would buy it.....
I thought so, and wondered what to do about it.
Let me use what has already been translated here.
Isn't that one way to do it
That's what I thought, and I mustered up the courage.
I've decided to write about it here.

I'm still struggling and haven't really decided if I want to go for it.
Anyway, I thought I'd write to ask your opinion here once.

I apologize for the length of the sentence.
I'm not going to use all the data here as is.
However, as much as possible, we will make an effort to include the names of the people involved in the English translation on the page as collaborators.

I will come back if I have any questions or queries.
I apologize for the surprise visit.
Thank you very much.

Oh, and...
If the English translation is completed, the
I will be contacting you to request the erasure of the data here.
Thank you very much.

Please make use of the English version published here however you see fit. It is an honor for our work to become an official release.

Thank you for having the courage to reach out. It would be an honor for collaborators' names to be listed in an official release. As stated before, we will remove any of your manga that you wish from the site. If there is anything you would like to ask or say, you are always welcome here. There's no need whatsoever for any apologies. I am sure your yuri manga relaunch can be a success. You have the support of everyone here.

Thank you very much.

ここで出版された英語バージョンは自由に使用納さって下さい。わたくしたちの努力は公式出版になるのが光栄です。

勇気をだしてここで連絡取りになるのを本当に感謝致します。名前は公式出版で出るのが本当に光栄です。さっき述べていたした通り、先生が望むように消しいたします。質問や語りたいことがありましたら、先生をいつでも歓迎いたします。謝りなどの必要は完全にありません。先生の百合漫画への復帰はきっと成功になれます。ここの皆さんは応援いたします。

ありがとうございます。

I think it looks even better now. There are just a couple small things to iron out, and then I think we'll be able to release this.

95

...... -> ... (Three dots in ellipsis)

96

waboosh (Thicken stroke)

Um.... -> Um... (Three dots in ellipsis)

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1z3h6mTnWr455YBqrpctbnCmLt2i32i9y/view?usp=sharing

does the ellipsis usually only get 3 dots? that's something I would have to remember.

>>24261

I think this is good to release. Thank you for your patience through all the revisions. Hopefully, in the future, we'll be able to make do with fewer.

Yes, the standard in English is for there to be three dots in an ellipsis. You might see more sometimes, but that's considered non-standard.

Thank you for being patient and teaching me a lot of things. I'll practice more so yes hopefully in the future we can do with less revisions.
Hope to work with you again :)
おつかれさまでした。

Released.

@musicgod96
I'm not sure how you output/save your files, there's definitely quite a bit of noise/light grey lines all over the place in all the images that was not there in the raws. See preview pic: https://yuri-project.net/uploads/2020/04/my-cute-little-kitten-ch08.jpg

If you can retain the quality that was in the raw that would be nice since the raws was pretty clean in the first place scan wise. For if or when you do future chapters, and if you can also try to carry over the style from previous chapter and have some consistency.

editing tut in the wiki: wiki.yuri-project.net

>>24252

I wouldn't make any quality comparisons based on the preview pic uploaded to the site. My guess is that any problems you see there are because it has been downscaled to a height of 600 and converted to a jpeg. It's just meant to be a preview.

As for the release itself, personally I don't notice any difference unless I zoom in quite far. I don't know much about image editing, but I do know that the raws for this chapter were huge (2220 x 3106). Maybe what you're seeing is just the result of scaling the pages down for the release?

>>24252
I can confirm that. Weird "grey lines" noise on every page. I've just saved raws as PNG-8 with downscaling to x2000 and there's no noise. Probably wrong settings set by editor during editing.

>>24254

As for the fonts, I realize I didn't ask what the previous fonts were and I probably should have. But after re-reading the previous chapters, the fonts were already all over the place. I wasn't able to decipher the fonts from chapter 7 (expect maybe the dialogue text, which I'm guessing is Komika). So I figured that one more font-inconsistent chapter wouldn't hurt anyone, especially since I plan to continuing editing this.

As for the grey lines, I see what you mean. I don't know if this is a valid excuse, but I'm using Affinity Photo and not Photoshop, so I wasn't sure what export settings I should be using. But after some trial and error, I think I figured out what to do about that. Here are the updated pages, hopefully without anymore noise.

Okay, I'll update the link.

>>24045

If you want. I get the feeling that this could be classified as "magazine chatter," sort of an attention-grabbing headline that wouldn't be included in a tank release. As magazine chatter, I think it's fine to remove it, if you want to be truer to what it would look like in the tank; if you want the magazine experience, then keep it in.

I might tend slightly towards removing it, but I could go either way.

>>24052

https://www.mediafire.com/file/h50qnzsqeedddgg/object_QCv2.zip/file

I removed it. I think it would be confusing.

>>24054
Released.

just realized there was a typo on page 2

Why this happen? -> Why did this happen?

>>24220

I've updated the download link on the homepage.
