Naruto Vol. 9 Chap. 73

And I’m back. Wow it’s been a while. I had stopped due to the poor quality of the raws. I solved that problem by scanning them myself. No guarantees on how long it will take me to finish out this volume but you can rest assured that the quality will remain great. Until next time.

Update

It appears that the raws have taken a real dip in quality. The raws for volume 9 have been saved at really low jpeg settings, and there are tons of compression artifacts. So if anyone knows of a better quality source, I would really appreciate it.

All right the raws I have are are around 20MB in size in a zip or rar archieve. Here a sample image

You can see the compression effect as those characteristic blocks that are all over the image. There is dirt to be sure, but even that shows the low level jpeg compression artifacts. If there is a better quality source out there, it would create a much better scanlation.

Here is the Naruto volume 8 redone with better, though not great, quality raws, Enjoy.

Mahou Sensei Negima v06-08

Two weeks back I found unedited scans of these volumes off a site I usually frequent and decided to edit them. This is not a scanlation, but instead scans of the official volumes. The existing scanlations are pretty poor in terms of visual quality, and this release is much better.  I did this as a bit of a break from the work of my Naruto releases, since doing this was pretty easy in comparison. I did this fairly quickly, just straighten, cropped as much as possible while preserving artwork and leveled the images. Release height is 2400 pixels, I tried to do a  smaller release but I kept getting moire patterns when I resized to a smaller height.  Enjoy the releases.

Volume 6 and 8 were larger than mediafire’s 200MB limit so I just recompressed them in a split rar archive. Just extract the file to get the complete volume.

Naruto Volume 7: Orochimaru’s Curse

Merry Christmas everyone. This volume was harder to work with then what I am used to. This was mostly due to the fact that this volume wasn’t scanned particularly well. There are definitely inconsistencies in the way different sections of the volume was scanned and some parts look better than others. It is definitely better than the existing volume but not quite up to the other releases I have made so far. There are probably ways I could try to fix up the more inconsistent parts but that would involve redrawing most of every single page in the volume, and since I am a one man team, trying to do that would probably put me off scanlations forever. Anyway enjoy the release, and once again have a Merry Christmas, on to volume 8 (which at a glance appears to be scanned by the same person, so you can expect similar quality).

I have updated my release to fix a typo.

Bleach Volume 12 Omake Ch.0.8 – A Wonderful Error

This is a bit of a one off. I was organizing my manga collection, and just couldn’t find this omake available for download. I was able to find it (after some serious searching) in a supercompressed form in an online manga reader, no uncompressed downloads to be found. Anyway, using those images as a source, I spent a few hours today quickly doing this omake. Enjoy
