Like it’s alright

By Chaos Eclipse (Pcmac user)

So my issue isn’t the paywall for unlocking more chapters, like it’s not fun but I sort of get it. My issue is that there is this paywall that I’m sure pays for the translators and the like, but there is no quality control. Given that the app have options to get free coins by being a translator, this brings into question the actual work going in. Such as, are people just feeding information to a computer and using google translate? I don’t feel as if I’m far off because there real problems with the translations that kind of make it difficult to understand. No one is actually screening chapters before they’re put out, and it leads to MAJOR errors. Using the wrong tense, repeats of a word on accident, entire sentence structures that weren’t looked over to see if they even made sense in English. And that’s why I don’t really feel comfortable paying. I’ve seen better translations from people who weren’t getting paid in the old mangafox days than here. They’re rushing out chapters and not even checking the work. I can justify giving money to this if they even thought about adding a quality control team. So I hope they take that into consideration. Or at the very least, slow down the process just a bit in order to give decent(not necessarily perfect) translations. There are a LOT of stories on here and the spreading people thin to make rush deadlines leads to a poor product.

4 Stars only(sorry)

Hi, I’m here to tell you guys that this is a great app and all but there is one thing that makes me so mad. It was originally giving you lots of coupons per day. Then that stoped. Then it was the point system. They completely modified it. And finally we get to now. And again it’s the point system. Now you have to read a specific manga for 10 mins or watch an ad just so you have more points in the app. And if you ask me that’s crap for people who can’t pay. Not to mention they are literally making you watch the ads so that they make more money. Like really? You want to screw us over so bad that you don’t want people to at least get 10 extra points? We are already spending 40 minutes to get the points. Heck if anything it should be more than that at least point wise like I remember it being like 5 and 30 minutes online and like 10 minutes reading. Not to mention that coupon prices have risen. And I’m ok with that like how prices in a store change. But I’m not ok with just spending 40 minutes reading on the app if you are just making it back and never making anymore unless you do one of the bonus point stuff. I’m not saying the app is trash, I’m just saying that it might be wise if you to stop doing that.

Really??? Locked EPS??

Okay The quality is great, the stories are great but you will never get to finish a story because they’re locked and you have to pay and get this it’s not cheap you’re better off buying the book they have some free books but as soon as they get interesting they start to lock the new episodes why because it’s getting popular and they want money and I understand that but it’s not affordable plus you never even know if the translations are going to be correct how long it’s going to be when they’re going to release the next chapter also I forget what happened in the last episode and I can’t even go back to re-read it when they unlock the next episode or when I get a coupon the next day the episodes are not even long enough to enjoy this Review would’ve been a five star if they translated correctly and at least make each chapter a reasonably length sense we are paying for it. If I’m gonna to pay for a chapter at least do your part and make it worth it by putting in more effort instead of scamming us.

Solid app, awful translations 🙁

In regards to most stories on the English version. The stories are enjoyable, the app interface is clean, and the paywalls are reasonable. However, none of this matters when the translations are of such poor quality. The story is constantly interrupted by typos and grammar mistakes that would be easy to fix, yet are very hard to ignore while reading. Wording, fluidity, and logic are ignored. If there were translation standards or a proofreader/editor this glaring issue could be resolved. I would even be more than willing to edit these translations (as I’m sure many others would be) if that were an option. It’s a shame that so many good stories are being devalued by shoddy translations. The meaning and artistry from the original author is gone.
