You're not missing out on anything) hey guys wassup? Thought I went away and for awhile to focus doing something else and it takes a few weeks to learn something now that I'm only free on weekends. But I made it in like this weekends and wanna share with you guys. But before that, as you know, I am an old school, and have a very soft spot for old scans. I've spent all these years cleaning, editing, cropping, leveling page after page of countless projects, oficial or unoffical. Even in the digital era, I still wanna scans the old book and fixing old scanlations because they hold a very dear nostalgia to me. You may think I'm wasting time , but you can't just come in and make fun of me, insult me, curse at me, throw all kind of shits at me, just because I don't want your favourite scans? I've been doing this for years and real happy at what I do. If I stop, what else can I do? What do I become? I can't change that. I mean you can't just bust in like that, ok Iknow I'm in a public place like this website. Says the library is a public place too. Can you just sit next to someone start talking and throw all the shits at them? Fuck that ok. I hope you do that to me in real life so I can put my years of karate into "fixing" it . Really miss this during the pandemic. I've never seen anyone nicer or meaner than myself. Because I am gonna be much much nicer to them, and vice versa, the meanest. I don't have a habit of letting things slide. Ya know what, for all the torrents I've uploaded. I know some book are not the best quality, I can make them look as good on par with today's standards. I just can't find the time and since they're readable atm and there're ppl wanna read them, why not sharing for now and go back to work on it later, or in the meantime some of my friends might try their hands on it. Little did I know sharing got me in trouble with some ppl who wanna "own" some series. Anyways, back to the main topic. I have very good news for my crowds. I've found a way to upgrade/upscale old scanlations.You have to take a look at yourself in this test release. You know I can't just "re-scan" an old scanlation . So I am very excited to put my new skills into work. Yah I am an old schooler who keeps up with today's technology to go back to fix the past and live with it better. Let me know what you think of the end results? I could polish it a bit more but I like to leave it look a bit "rough" like this. I'm not asking you about what I should do instead, what title that I should focus on. I just wanna know your opinion on this one. In this torrent you have Fist of the Northstar volume 9, scanlated by spamdini (Love the mixed culture : an Italian guy translated the French version of a Japanese manga into english), upgraded by me (an East Asian guy from Canada who look like Spanish using a software from Russia with the help of Indian/Egyptian friend, editing manga chapters focusing on a Japanese people with hair longer and blonder than my Canadian gf (Rei, Yuria, Raoh, Toki) while I'm having Mexican foods with jazz musics of black ppl in the background). I uploaded both versions for you to compare. Bonus feature is a few issues from VIZ of the same title back in the 80s and 90s. Direct DL for the manga issues here https://app.mediafire.com/xsc5zxtfghal7 I'm busy with life and working on this in my spare times (when I am not going out or with my gf) so I won't be uploading any torrent. It's time consuming and makes my laptop run slower. Note: I KNOW there's a new digital version of this title that has been ripped. Ok. I'm very curious and gonna do a few chapters of each old titles LQ scanlations to see how the pages turn out. Lemme try editing the Mach Gogogo 650px scans.
