Hi! What I'm looking for are the first 8 volumes of Arifureta; why am I looking for it? Cause I read it long ago, and want to read some of the parts I liked. The problem is, even the non-licensed chapters up to 93 I think are gone. And I don't want to, and never will, pay the Jnovelsclub. I would think about it if they were the ones who first translated it, but if someone translates it and it's available for free, and then after a long time someone else comes and locks it behind a paywall on their won site, and the original translator is forced to delete it, I won't ever give them my money, since they don't really deserve it. So, here comes my question - first 8 volumes, where can I re-read them? I could find the first volume.
Have you tried looking for evil aggregator sites? That's their only good point, having novels that got licensed and taken down by translators. Or have you tried looking for downloads?
Google is your friend. PDFs of official translations is one thing, but fan translations? Very common.
I've send them to you privately, if anyone else wants them, tell me. Alternatively, google for "Arifureta pdf", click the reddit result and see which links work for you.
Is it the same translation and stolen, or did they do their own translation from scratch? If its the latter then you can't really fault them and say they don't deserve it.
I doubt it's the same one, since the Japtem version had many mistakes, some pretty big ones. I guess they either translated from scratch (not very likely) or used the previous translations as a guideline, and using the raws as a source they did their final version that was edited and proofread.
Try searching 'kureha 1' in Google, there, find traitorAizen. He's one of the most contributors there, also, I'm currently at the SS.
