As a fan of manga who wants to support artists, translators, letters, and others in the industry who love manga too, it truly is disappointing to see some on both the English and Japanese sides who are willing to deliver an inferior product, favoring speed and quantity.

From my own perspective, I understand concerns of piracy and see the demand for English releases, but AI truly should not be the answer to this... From what's been said about Orange's issues, and now Media Do's acquisition of Seven Seas, it's definitely concerning.

For reference: Media Do has public information on their "MediaDo Translation System" in their Medium-Term Management Plan on their website under their Investor Relations Plan mediado.jp/english/ir/lib…

I do hope Seven Seas' statement will remain true and look forward to hearing more detailed information. Because with Media Do's current plan, I know I'm still a bit concerned... x.com/gomanga/status…

Many have asked about AI and translation following the acquisition announcement. Seven Seas remains committed to human translators and the high editorial standards our readers & creators expect. Nothing about the acquisition changes how we translate our books. More info shortly.

To be fair, the "Translation System" has been used for their own eBook releases so far... So it would be wrong to assume it will be imposed on 7S. Regardless, having a parent company that is very pro-AI in the translation process is just not reassuring right now.
