    Honestly I just want this novel fully translated lol. But with quality! I would prefer it to be Wuxiaworld since we'd at least expect a chapter a day and seeing Fudge's quality with SCOG I'd prefer it to be him. (Feel free to disagree if you really want to) But if this new translator would like to try I'd be more than welcome to say 'Go for it!'

    I really liked SCOG, but after the way the author finished with some of the side stories as well as various things I've heard about MEMORIZE, I think I'll pass either way. Not a big fan of some genres and elements.

    Also, it's still early days to judge the quality of the new translators. Only when they go past the previously translated chapters, then it would make sense to see if they are good or not.

    Well, this new translation, as expected, died rather quickly. Still hoping that WW will translate it one day! I tried the manhwa version, not sure if it's the story or the adaptation, but it was meh.

    I don't know if someone already said this, but this novel seems cursed. I had been reading MEMORIZE from back when it was first being translated. I still remember posting my condolences after finding out the original translator was hurt. I don't think anyone else since then has been able to translate as many chapters as them before dropping it. :(

    So apparently there's yet another group picking the novel up again: https://www.luminousscans.com/series/memorize-novel/

    Translation is starting over from chapter 1 again, which might be a letdown to some, but there were really only intelligible chapters until about the 50 mark and having a consistent translation from start to finish is generally preferable so terminology doesn't randomly change. (Ofc that's assuming that they new translation group even get as far as 50 chapters in LOL)

    Another plus is that they seem to also be translating the manwha, so I guess later down the line anyone who read the manwha before continuing onto the novel will have a pretty good experience...


    Anyway, let's hope 3rd (more like 5th or 6th? Maybe even 7th) time's the charm :blobtaco:

    A fan of SCOG here, and was curious about reading Memorize since midway through SCOG.

    Just noticed that luminous scans are the same people that are translating the webcomic version of this, and they have 24 chapters of the novel currently up. Is there a reason they aren’t showing the updates on NU? Or have they just not noticed?

    No clue, though the first 100 or so chapters of MEMORIZE are translated somewhere on the internet. I first read MEMORIZE years ago, when there were only 6-10 translated chapters out, so I'm unsure if those sites still exist.

    One of my fav's so far. I wondered about that as well but no one is perfect, I suppose. I just put it on that.

    for the record that wuxiaworld website you're thinking of is an aggregator site that's not the actual wuxiaworld.com, wuxiaworld hasn't translated any MEMORIZE chapters—they're seemingly too busy with translating trash novels for some reason instead...

    A certain hobbyist just picked up Memorize. But, can he keep it up?

    I thought he said he doesn't want to continue because he can't earn the big buck in a short amount of time? He also said he pays for the chapters, which I'm confused about since you can get free chapters for Korean novels on kakaopage, a chapter per day for novels and a chapter per week for the manhwas (I believe). And he keeps saying he's just one guy, so it's not like he has to pay his translators right? So where exactly is he losing money? Is he talking about the opportunity cost of his time for translating the novels? (Sorry, don't know much about AsianHobbyist, so genuinely curious)

    Now that they've gone legit with the licensing they can't rock the boat and upload non-licensed content. So there is some sort of hold up with the memorize licensing or the rights owner simply does not want an English release for whatever reason.

    Was The Second Coming of Gluttony hosted on another provider?
