Re: Manga licensed
Didn't Viz give up on PokeSpe?
Now they see it's popular again, and they suddenly want it back?
...
Not cool, Viz.

Re: Manga licensed
It's a move against hosting scans of licensed manga in general. Since Pokéspecial is licensed by Viz, mangafox took it down to avoid legal actions.

Re: Manga licensed
All I'm seeing right now is Viz noticing our project, and at best, just shutting us down. I see other manga that has been licensed by other companies staying up, but it seems most of Viz's manga are going down, so it might be Viz alone taking everything down.... If they catch us, they might not be so happy...
Although I'm not so happy with them right now... Stupid Viz *puffs out cheecks* Very stupid!

Re: Manga licensed
Sure what we're doing is technically illegal, but from Viz's standpoint, wouldn't it be kinda stupid to shut us down seeing how we're basically doing them the favor of free advertising? I mean, it's not like an anime ever ruined the manga it was based on. It usually helps with the manga sales.

Re: Manga licensed
Well, the problem is dividing their audiences (to viz)
some people prefer watching anime, than reading manga, but they'll read vizs pokespe manga because it's the only option.
...but once an anime comes along, it offers more options to audiences, and some customers may move onto watching the anime, instead of buying their manga.
Which is why they would complain (but if they're worried...why not get a company to make one themselves? They'll get all the customers and profits!)
...but I digress.

Maybe mostly viz manga going down, but that's probably because they've licensed a lot >_>
They've got this whole coalition thing going on with loads fo American and Japanese companies. There's a full list on the article on AnoimenewsNetwork.

Yeah we did >.> It seems like it's one of those discussions that just won't die. But, then again, we never really drew it to a proper ending, we just said "we'll keep working until they tell us not to"....so yeah

Re: Manga licensed
Yeah I saw that.
I guess people are just going to have to give in and buy pokemon adventures on viz.

Re: Manga licensed
Yeah but how long before it's removed from there too? Pfft, it'll be removed before we even know it.
Re: Manga licensed
Sheesh. It sounds like they're on to us. The first episode isn't even finished, and I already finished the second episode script. I'm on chapter 13, but can't get to see the pictures and images any more.
@Yellow
How in Zucion did you get them all on Mangafox? I'm was a little speechless when you got all the chapters and picutres.

You know, I am really thinking about the fact, what if they take our forum down? We all need a back up if that happens...
Re: Manga licensed
The first two arcs are still on onemanga, right?

yeah dragon guard scans if I'm not mistaken.
If they take the forum down we need a plan B, like communicating through e-mail and msn.

Yeah, onemanga is still there, and it hasn't been taken down. It still goes from RBG arc to GCS arc. However, it reached to the first volume of GCS. Surprising, I have no idea why it still lives.

Re: Manga licensed
How many of us are on dA?
If so many of us are worried about being shut down, we can always make a dA group.

Re: Manga licensed
We could indeed make a DA group, we're actually thinking of doing that already, but you guys really need to calm down. Just because the manga is getting removed doesn't mean they're going to come after us. ^.^;
1. We havn't even done anything yet.
2. VIZ doesn't own everything pokemon. Just the manga. That's why they're taking down the manga off the internet. It's their product. It makes sense. This is a fan project. Why would they shut us down before we've even done anything?
3. VIZ probably doesn't even know we exist, and won't for a while. ^.^;

Pull yourself, together. We still have a chance left before they try and shut us down.

Re: Manga licensed
Bad news everyone.
I've recently heard that onemanga will be shutting down by the end of this week.
...what sites are left? Most of the good manga sites are closing up!
