Seriously?

I think this is the final straw. (Scans have been removed, but this person uploaded the Chinese scans along with some of my detailed text in the summary I did for act 30, but 95% of it was self-interpreted. No idea how, but it was done.)

From now on, I won't be doing any more JR summaries. Even if there are, I'll be doing very short ones with less ( Read more... )

announcement, fandom: junjou romantica, wtf?, !rant

I don't really bother with crediting this much now, since I'm more bothered about the quality and the message being relayed to the fans...

In any case, thanks for the support so far. Really do hope you enjoyed the summaries I did! :D

Don't fret - no more JR, but more with my group, so do look forward for more BL~

ah yes the "translated" pages are already on tumblr and i just want to scream at them "you're being fooled!" but ahh fandom is a powerful thing.

i feel terrible that its ended up like this ; ~ ; and i don't blame you for deciding this seeing as this fandom is walking all over your efforts time and time again, and taking advantage ( ̄◇ ̄;) but thank you for all that you've done!

You can scream all you want just to help spread the message of high inaccuracy, so yeah. You will be helping the fandom letting them know to just take the "translation" and "scanlation" with a pinch of salt, lol. At least they'll know not to take that chapter too seriously.

You're welcome. I do try to do much for the fandom, it seems I'm the one who has been fooled. :'D But but but do stick around for some other BL stuffs! o/

No no no prob~ :D

If tumblr is easier for you to follow compared to LJ, you can find me there instead. I post only summaries and translations there though, or any type of scanlation announcements, so if you want to you can just track me there.

although it makes me sad to lose your summaries but it's harder to steal one's work & claim it for their own!!
I'm sorry for hearing what happened to you >< & I'm sure lots of those who follow your work DO care !
thank you so much for what your work so far ^^

I know you guys do - I see all your messages pop up from time to time telling me you enjoyed reading them and I just get happy to have been able to give to the fandom. :D

But yeah, I don't really want this happening again. besides, JR is getting a bit tiring for me. :\

<3 Thanks for sticking around, and do stick around often too for more BL stuffs! I may have stopped JR but BL itself doesn't stop. Heh heh.

Well shit happens, especially in big mainstream fandoms. XD;; I'm sure you get it somewhat in the SiH fandom, no? Ahah.

Thanks for sticking around, but continue to anyway for more BL updates, other than JR that is. :D
