First release: Vinland Saga v06


Hey there. I really like Vinland Saga and you probably too, if you're reading this ;-) After volume 5 the tankobon scans stoped and only mag-scans were released. Vinland Saga is such a great series so I decided to release it in the quality it deserves. Here's the tankobon-version of volume 6. Took me a litte bit over a week to do it. Since it's my first time with scanlation, there were some things I had to figure out while doing. I kinda re-did the volume like 2 or 3 times (changing fonts, image quality, etc...) but I hope in the end it came out okay.

Thanks a lot to Anonymous Spore for letting me use his translations and helping out with a few extra pages. Visit him at http://anonspore.blogspot.com/


So, enough of the talking, here's to link:

Have fun and stay tuned for more,

  5. thanx to you all...

    @Dille: couldn't do much about resolution since I just took the raw available on the net. With changing image quality I meant changing the png-colors. First I used 256 colors and the volume was nearly 200 MB big. Now it's 16 colors and it still looks the same and is much smaller.

    @bambang: Damn, your right. Missed one (important) word. I changed it. Thanx for the advice.

  6. Thanks for doing this. I went through it fairly closely and found more stuff: http://pastebin.com/x85hR9re

    I can also translate the cover flap and omake if you'd like.

  7. Wow, thanks for finding so many typos. Since I only typed it off the old scans it was likely I made some mistakes here and there... If you could translate the missing stuff it would be great. Then I could do a v2 release of the volume: please mail me under powerman5k@gmx.net for anything further...
