I was wondering if you had RAW scans for vol. 8, if not i would be glad to make scans for you from my copy.

This volume looks really interesting, it concentrates more on the main story with Yuo and it's over 200 pages! There are only two chapters and the first is huge.

no rush or anything, just curious

Nope, I didn't even know it was out. I would appreciate scans if possible, but man it will take me a while to translate. (I spend a lot of time at work now.)

no problem, i'll start scanning it for you.

I understand it takes a while to translate expecially with work, plus you do all the editing and type setting youself. So don't worry about it, as long as you don't drop VGD i'm happy, Its one of my favorate mangas.

I uploaded the scans onto megaupload for direct download, the file size is 189mb total and its inside a zip file.

VGD Vol. 8 RAWS: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=N02IWYBA

*Sorry it took so long, I got slammed with finals* :(

I scanned it in at 300 dpi in grayscale (excluding covers)

I barely did any cropping and didn't make any contrast/brightness adjustments...
All I have is an old laptop with a crappy lcd screen so I was afraid to try
and adjust anything (my scannner isn't the best quality either) sorry.

I originaly started to scan in at 150 dpi but had problems with the scan quality
(funny lines kept showing up) so I changed to 300dpi
and that seemed to help some.

yes, thanks again for the scans. I've got them now, but haven't had a chance to look at them. I still translate Tenjo Tenge and Hells Angels, so haven't really had much translating time to throw at this.

I will get around to it eventually though.

A heads up on the torrent for VGD volume 8: it is missing "edited" versions of pages 47 and 108. Actually, to tell the truth, I only partially translated those pages, so only partial translations are available in the translation script and JavaScript pop-ups. I've gone back and re-translated those two pages.

You might think that page 155 is missing, but it isn't. In the raws, page 154 and 155 are the exact same - a file naming error perhaps. I only included 154 in the translated scans.

I might re-generate the torrent with the updated files. If anyone else notices any omissions or problems, please let me know. Since I do most of this myself, these things are bound to happen.

I've updated the torrent with the two missing pages, and also cleaned up the README.html file so all the links point to the correct places. Also the translation script image links work now.

I should note that I have no idea if the current set of seeds (14 currently) have the new version or not. They should I suppose, but my seed is online anyway so it should all be good.

Is there a new link of the torrent about volume 08 containing the 2 missing pages? Because I downloaded it two times and although it says its fixed with the pages, they are not in.

thanks

hi,

whatever is up there is whatever there is. I am totally busy now (just got married, bought a house, and changed jobs) so I don't have time to check into this. if it is just two pages, well sometimes you have to live with imperfections.

especially when you rely on a fish to translate shit for you. :P
