@The toxic American weabo: Licensed in the US meaning that what I a European am asking for is no more illegal then what was given to us a few months ago in form of fan translation before Yen press got the licence. The rest of the world doesn’t care about your stupid laws if you want to debate the "legal" part. Now as for pure support of the author, I really don't see why getting Vol10+ will stop any real fan from buying the book as it comes out in English including vol10+ 3 years from now like a lot of us did with Spice and Wolf for example. You hinting at the fact that they won’t buy it probably means you won’t bother either (especially for vol1-9) meaning you’re just another parasite you’ve been ranting about.

Actually, the problem is the 3 years, I really don't want to wait that long just because some distant law from a country that thinks it's the centre of the world says I have to wait for a company that deliberately waits MONTHS to release new volumes for business reasons. Also, since when is discussing stuff illegal? I'm not asking for links, kind of hard since vol10 isn't even out yet, I’m just asking if anyone knew people that said they would do the translation.

I really wish people would stop being so narrow minded. Fan translation of any kind including fansubs are and always will be ILLEGAL in any possible way. Saying its “OK” and beneficial as long as there aren’t any local copyright holders to prossecute you (sice the Japs don't bother) are weak arguments used by people who want to keep a clear conscience. If you really want to support the author, buy their stuff even after you get their work illegaly first, period. Don’t use the law as an excuse.
