What we’re doing now… & et cetera

Note: We update this post regularly with our planned activities, thoughts, et cetera. Be aware that it changes often. The “[MU]” are mangaupdate.com links if you want to know more about the series.

–About our name (Nihil Sine Nefas) and our symbol (the Inverted Cross)

Scanlation progress (or lack there of):

–Vagabond [MU]

262 – 263 – 264 – 265 – 266 – 267 -268 – 269 – 270 – 271 – 272 – 273 –

274 – 275 – 276 – 277 – 278 – 279 – 280 – 281 – 282 – 283 – 284 – 285

So we got 285 out, but we don’t have the raws for 284 yet, so we’re going to have to wait for those. Hopefully we won’t have to wait too long.

Also, as the end of 285 says, “Vagabond will be on break from the following issues for the next 3 weeks.
#286 returns in issue 52, on sale 11/26!”

General information: This series is weekly, however it very often takes breaks. It’s published in ‘Weekly Morning’.

–Until Death Do Us Part [MU]

17 – 18 – 38 – 39 – 40 – 41 – 42 – 43 – 44 – 45 – 46 – 47 -48 - 49 – 50 -

51 - 52 – 53 – 54 – 55 – 56 – 57 – 58 – 59 – 60 – 61 – 62 – 63 – 64 -65 -

66 – 67 – 68 – 69 – 70 – 71 – 72 – 73 – 74 – 75 – 76 – 77 – 78 – 79 -

80 – 81 – 82 – 83 – 84 – 85 – 86 – 87 – 88 – 89 – 90

Special chapter: Jesus

Waiting for the raws for chapter 91. They should be out 11/20 in Japan in Young Gangan #23.

General information: this series comes out twice a month fairly regularly. It’s published in ‘Young Gangan’. The source we get the raws from can take a week or longer, though it can vary.

–Dante’s Divine Comedy [MU]

Volume 1 and chapter 1-12 – 13 – 14 – 15 – 16

We should have 17 out next week sometime. It’s a short chapter, so sorry ahead of time for that. Some of our attention is diverted to side things, but we’re still slowly as always working on this. Sorry to all the fans for the delays regarding this series.

Specific details about what we are doing.

We have complete raws for this series.

–Dr. Rurru [MU] – oneshot/series

01

We have the raws for chapter two. We’ve gotten a good deal of work, but again, it’s not a priority for the time being.

So a while back we got our hands on a oneshot issue of jump SQ. We thought Dr. Rurru looked like it had the best art out of all of them, so we did the oneshot. It was a while back, consequently it’s pretty messy (besides the fact that the story was pretty bizarre and disjointed).  Apparently we choose well though, because it got serialized.

General: Mangahelpers has removed all series published Kodansha. Quite a few series are effect, as you can see. This includes Dante’s Divine Comedy, Air Gear, and Vagabond. You won’t be able to find any new or old releases of said series at mangahelpers.

Oneshots and Completed/Dropped/non-independent/ et cetera Series:

–Zetman [MU] - Dropped

112 – 113 – 114 – 115 – 116 – 117 – 118

Currently, We’ve dropped it and left it to Evil Genius and they’re doing a great job with it. My thanks go to them for their effort and I’d like to wish them good luck.

–Ikigami [MU] – Dropped again

01 – 02 – 03

We were going to do more, but we decide it would be better if the series was handed over to imangascans. Good luck, we look forward to more chapters to come.

–Akaboshi – Ibun Suikoden [MU] – Dropped

01

Wanted to try our hand at cleaning mag raws. Due to the lack of a [willing] translator we probably won’t do any more chapters.

–Air Gear [MU] – Dropped/collaborating

226 – 227 – 228 – 229 – 230 – 231 – 232

Various other chapter with Kuu scans

We’re helping Kuu clean some of their tank scans. Kuu has a 24 hour IRC release policy which we respect, so you’ll have to go there to get them within 24 hours. After 24 hours, there should be DDLs that you can find on their site.

–Asklepios [MU] – completed

15 – 16 – 17 – 18 – 19 [end]

A short WSJ series which we completed.

–Oneshots

Personant [MU] - Apple [MU]- in order of how much I like them

–666 Satan [MU] – just one chapter

The only other scanlation available was terrible and we thought “even we can do better than that”, and thus was born Nihil Sine Nefas. (it’s terrible too in retrospect, but still better than that shit)

Notes:

–New International Group policy

In short, we have a credits page (found in the above link) to include if you use our scanlations or cleans (you can find a few non-typeset clean in the above link). If you are going to use any of our work, though, I suggest you read the entire page by following the link.

–On our members and about collaborations

–On linking to our release:

“Since we obviously provide a wide array of links and because we would like people exposed to our site, we ask that you link to our post/blog rather than to the individual downloads or re-uploads of them. (we are not talking about archive sites and online readers, in which case we encourage people to add our releases to them). Tell us if you want us to use any other uploaders or anything.”

There is a bit more elaboration here.

–Find Some Raws we don’t have?

If you find a raws for a series we are doing from a site other than Mangahelpers or Raw-paradise (we check these regularly), you may well have found it before us. If we haven’t updated saying that we have said raws, go ahead and tell us about this in a comment or email. We greatly appreciate it and it helps us get the manga to you faster. By no means should you go out of your way for us, just if you happen upon it, we’re more than happy to use it.

–Is there any way we can improve?

We are always looking for little ways to help our readers out, so if you know of something we can do, tell us. We encourage you to post a comment here or Email us.

-Questions appreciated

I can’t promise we’ll always be able to answer them, but if there’s something you want to know that we might know, go ahead and ask. We’re not going to yell at you for asking something like “when’s the next [x] coming”; we’ll just try to relate as much pertinent information as we can.

Here’s a specific page for it too.
