  2. Enzyme...I'm going to say this very clear so you can understand, you are under some kind of weird illusion that you think just because you don't hit a download button you are not downloading anything, guess what? you are still downloading, from the moment you open your web browser you consume bandwidth in order to bring you to the page you desire, if you go to youtube and watch a video you are still downloading it even if you don't hit a download button, so even if you don't hit download something it does not mean you aren't, I learned that the hard way when managing my ISP's bandwidth cause they used to have a limit of how much I could consume.Second of all, it does not matter if the manga is not sold in shops where you live it still does not give you the right to just take it without buying for it, that is stealing no matter how much you want to sugar coat it, they guys here at the advocacy are providing a way for you to get the manga AND the translation digital copy for a very nice price they are even helping you with an option to pay for it without using paypal, western union is a good option and yet you stop there cause you don't have a photo ID? are you old enough to vote? then get yourself a voters ID or whatever it is called in English, it is free (at least where I live) if not get yourself a student ID. The guys here are not going to give you anything after volume 30 for free so if you don't have the money to pay for it then I suggest saving up or getting a job, if you don't want to do that and still think you deserve to have an illegal copy of the manga just because you can't afford it then you have a serious problem and are acting like a spoiled and selfish douchebag, that or you are a troll, am I being rude? I don't care, this is not a lecture, this is plain and simple fact, IF YOU ARE WATCHING SOMETHING THAT IS NOT FOR FREE THEN THAT IS STEALING PLAIN AND SIMPLE, the guys here are doing their best to keep things legal here in a similar way that crunchy roll does with their anime streaming services in order to keep supporting the author and their are not going to give special treatment to anybody just because "they can't afford it", feel free to ignore anything I said if you want, I could really care less, I just wanted to say my piece and I did.

  4. yes we are selling at cost. don't you dare presume to know the channels by which we need to order these and what it will cost us. and you clearly don't understand the concept of theft. taking something without paying. every time you look at a chapter yoshiki takaya has drawn and written, you are taking it without paying. whether you can understand it , or not, is irrelevant. he produced it to sell and you are taking it without paying. seriously you need to shut the hell up and go and read about what piracy is before you reply again because I am getting PISSED. I'm under no illusions that I read stuff illegally online and I would like to change that if I can. I read Naruto, because it's easy. I think I would like it if the scanlation groups did the same as what we are doing. I would pay. truth is, if we can get something easily, a lot of us tend to. because we're fallible. But when people pretend that it's ok.... that's not on. There is legitimate means. you need to try harder. said the car thief

  5. oh durendal, please don't say things like this! You're a lovely person really. Enzyme eternal, my post was really meaning to say that your attitude seems to be " If I can't afford it or get it by legitimate means, it should be okay to steal it". what you said was rather illogical as you also kinda said "if i can't find a way to buy a product, I can't enjoy that product?" well yeah that is kinda the way the world works. The things you are saying, don't make much sense. from the very start guyver advocacy existed to promote guyver by the best means and aim to improve the sales of guyver product. We do not approve and never will approve of taking something for free simply because you don't want to go to too much trouble. when we translate from japanese into english do you think it is easy? The kind of attitude that comes across from your posts is very unpleasant. If you like guyver then you should be willing to put in a little effort and finance in order to be able to read it.

  6. Please allow me to answer everyone as to why an english translation is not available for the general public starting with the chapters of volume 30. Modesty aside, I'm the one who is mostly responsible in translating the monthly chapters. And right now, I am withholding translations because I am a total prick! If you want somebody to blame, then blame me. As some might point out, it's a free world, and you can do as you please. If you know Japanese, then you can translate the manga yourself by all means. If we want to be technical, the presence of the raw itself is already a violation of the international copyright act, which is tantamount to piracy. Not being able to understand the book is not an excuse in promoting piracy. Piracy is only allowed if you are either Johnny Depp or someone who can stretch their arms like rubber and answers to the name of Luffy.

  7. It's an official booklet they released in Japan with the first movie. Rare as hell, only seen 2 so far and came with a CD

  8. Had this for years, can't recall seeing it on the net and was talking to Sully about scanning things so I thought I'd scan this. Artist is Steve Kyte. date is 1995. The article is not worth reading though tbh so don't bother asking. it's rife with mistranslations and inaccuracies and has no interviews with anyone of importance.

  12. No problem, I'll finish scanning it today so it can be hosted here in it's complete form. Just let me know when it's being saved and I'll delete it from my sites temp folder. It's got some more nice stuff and pictures of Takaya on set and Steve Wang and Screaming Mad George. It's kinda strange, this movie had the better merchandise in Japan than the second movie which has next to nothing yet was a far better movie :/ Speaking of scans, I've 2 Town Mook (its the data files basically for the first movie and loads of other stuff, I think during my lurker days you guys put up few pages of it), I bought the second copy for ripping apart and getting decent scans from. Would that be handy for here? Edit: And what Odin said is kinda correct, but this booklet was for the first movie, not the second.

  13. So Western Union is an option? I might take that just because I'm much more familar with that then PayPal. Plus I can get munchies when I go to the grocery store to get the money order.

  15. Great chapter, I like how this is being setup and simply can't wait for next months chapter to see how they react when they realise just who exactly is in that bed

  16. I already own them all... Never felt right to call myself a Guyver fan and not have the books! (But I'm probably a little extreme buying the laser disc of the Out of Control movie and player just to watch it without any VHS age problems.)

  17. To be fair, it's 13 UK pounds per year basically (which just about covers the book and simply proves you own a copy, it's not like this book would be found in your local book store and with ebay or Amazon.co.jp they charge more than this just in shipping from Japan! And they don't give you a translation to go with it that you can actually read.). You'd spend more on a single night out with the misses or getting a decent Chinese takeaway! While yes you've an issue getting money to Ryuki, you can use Western Union Money transfers, they deal in cash and all Ryuki needs to do is go to a local agent to pick it up. And Edit: Forgot to add paid for Vol 30 from G.A.
