My second full year of lettering is coming to an end!!! 🥺Dreams rly do come true...

Aidan's lettering work is some of the best in the business, so I'm so happy the original creator highlighted it.

I'm lettering this!!! 🪡❤️‍🩹
Sensei's art is super beautiful and the story's bittersweetness is a great contrast to the cute art ❤️‍🩹

[LumRanmaYasha @ TCAF Table 140! @LumRanmaYasha]

I notice this PR says nothing about valuing the work of letterers, just translators and editors. This may be because they are conflating "translation" as a term to refer to all localization, but still concerning, I wouldn't put it past them to try and automate lettering with AI.

[Jan Mitsuko Cash 🧭 ジェン・光子・キャッシュ @Jmitsu]

Manga companies, please pay us $8/page! The small and new publishers can do it, surely the big companies with owners who make $3 million+ per year can afford it too!!

[Pierre Dubost @NoRollNoMoss]

Our latest Kodama release, MAGICA, is out now.

Translation by @Jmitsu
Lettering by @jeanthrix

Fully credited on the back cover, as with all our books.

[Editor-Tiina #isekaiispossible @KikukaChan]

Given the news circulating around Seven Seas and the Media Do acquisition, I'm curious: how do you feel about AI translation, and what do you want English publishers to know? Will it affect how and where you purchase your manga (et al) from?

[VLord (Varun) Buys Too Much Manga @VLordGTZ]

With all the recent stuff going on, I do want to affirm here that all of the localization for @mangamavericks titles are done 100% by humans.

We have no interest in using AI for any part of the localization/production process.

[Red String Manga @RS_honyaku]

No AI usage here, only passionate, experienced human translators, editors and the lettering that looks as good as the translation reads.

[雨木めい☂️ @raintreemei]

One thing that people often don't know about the manga translation industry is that translation is a very small piece of the pie. It takes 1-2 weeks at most to translate a manga, but then everything else comes after it. Editing, lettering, checks from JP pubs, QA, printing...

[Pierre Dubost @NoRollNoMoss]

ANNOUCEMENT: Kodama is officially adopting the Handmade label and committing to a clear Human-Made production standard.

We do not use generative AI in translation, lettering, editing, design, or creative content. Every Kodama book is translated, edited, and lettered by human professionals credited accordingly.

We will be formalizing this with our partners in the coming weeks!

Kodama is made by people, for people.

[Vee @scratchthatout]

The Japanese side is way more overt: this IS AN AI takeover, and it IS intended to put out translators and editors. they also misleadingly claim the translation process takes 6 months (when in reality, that is the entire process). this will save them $700-1000/volume.

[siry !! @sshiriry]

The artist for BR is incredibly detailed & it was very hard to find the space to subtitle SFX without negatively affecting the reading experience. I tried to visualize the composition/focus and place accordingly... But a different letterer might have chosen a different spot!

[siry !! @sshiriry]

Battle Royale Deluxe Vol. 1 is out in the wild now!! I'm very happy to have gotten the chance to letter the new edition of this crazy series. Though after 600 pages of this I need something cute and fluffy to heal my soul...

[Laura A. Grace 🧡 @laura_a_grace]

I found a sample of this on @MINT_MANGA's website and goodness did it make me emotional! Very beautiful art and compelling story so far!

I'll leave the link below if anyone wants to check it out! It goes up to chapter 5 and makes me excited to pick this up physically!

[雨木めい☂️ @raintreemei]

#魔法少女ダンデライオン 英語版の献本をいただきました！本当に手に持ってる！嬉しすぎる！

I got my Magical Girl Dandelion comps! A simulpub TLer has to do very little for print, so props to the letterer Finn K and his beautiful SFX!! I can't wait for you all to see them!

[Yen Press @yenpress]

For the good of the nation, it's time for the good children to participate in the Program!
