Scanlation & fansub question

I did look back a page or two, but excuse me if I missed an entry in which this was previously answered. Anyway, I was wondering if anyone was planning to scanlate the manga, or knew of scanlation team(s) who are planning to take on this project?

I'm very glad for the scans/translations I've found here, but I'm looking forward to seeing it scanlated. ^_~


Also, does anyone know if a fansub group besides gg is interested in subbing the anime? I have been unable to play gg's subs; it's because I have a mac, so I've got issues with playing certain mkv encodes. Yes, I've got msplayer osx as well as vlc, yes, I've asked around about codecs and all that, and have gotten the answer that there simply isn't an 'ideal' mkv player for mac as of now. :P


Any news on this is much appreciated!

well i'm translating the manga ^^;; about scanlation, they might come out one day, but i'm not soo sure ^___^;; in other words, i need a long holiday with nothing to do

i'm not sure about other subbers taking the project, since there's DGM and death note DD:

dunno about the manga scanlations, but if you're interested in the anime, go here:

http://www.tokyotosho.com

and search for code geass. they have a variety of files available that are fansubbed by different groups and most of them, unlike gg's files, are in .avi format. =D hope that helps you! =D!!

Chapter 1 scanlation is kinda done O.o, its a rough copy the names arnt right (cos weve got some offical spelling) and Reg wasnt happy with the translation. So that isnt linked at the moment but it was up *cough* maybe you can find something on 4shared.com....

"simply isn't an 'ideal' mkv player for mac as of now. :P" dude you own a mac, there is ideal nothing

Talked to Reg and I'm gonna put the scans up again. Theres a scanlation up at http://www.4shared.com/file/3541148/6c8452ad/code-geass-01.html but I'm going to replace it with another version later now that we have offical names etc.

Macs don't suck THAT bad! D: *eats eyes*
I use MPlayer for it, and I'm a mac. Runs fairly well. (Well, better then VLC, anywho...). How well really depends upon which OS you're running. Didn't run as great on 10.3, but it's fabulous on 10.4. 8D

I'd be willing to do scanlations. :/ I'm no wiz, but I'm not sure if the translators would let me. xD;; But oh well... someone else seems to have it taken care of in the time it took me to reply to this. :x Maybe I'll scanlate for my own uses.
