This week, Koichi and Michael chat with Kewl0210, a manga scanlator. For those who don't know, a scanlator is a person who scans, translates, and uploads manga online for free. This practice is highly controversial in the translation community and technically illegal.
Michael and Koichi discuss the many facets of this practice, including:
- How to learn Japanese through scanlation
- Where scanlators source their manga
- How they choose which manga to scanlate
- Why they're faster than the pros
- Bitter scanlation group rivalries

We do not condone, endorse, or support this practice or project and do not encourage others to attempt it.
