fubu makes clothes. Fugu makes manga translations.GreatTeacherStone wrote:I have a better question, mainly for fubu,
I doubt Tenjo Tenge will get licensed in the US, but if it does, I would quit translating it. I believe you should support manga that you think is good. That will encourage companies to bring over more good manga. That is a different reason than the fear of lawsuits, but certainly I don't want to get sued either.GreatTeacherStone wrote: if Tenjo Tenge WAS licensed would you continue scanlating it? I know that a whole lot of groups just quit when the manga gets licensed because they fear law suits, but that is kind of a rarity from what I hear!

Well, there was an article on Tenjo Tenge in Viz's Shonen Jump #7. So, we might see it someday... I don't think the article increases it's chances by much, but you never know.

I doubt it would be licensed, but if it was, I would stop translating it. I translate for myself, for fun, and like to do things that just aren't available in the US.Dart wrote:If it WERE licensed...would you guys start a new project since get backers was licensed as well
If I found something else that I enjoyed, I would start working on that.
