>>162951 no, you're right there have been official translations by Viz, but it's been years since anything new has come out. The origin is manga adaption of the TV series, the page I posted is part of a long Flash Back arc that focuses on Char's backstory- something not in the TV series. It started in 2003. The Viz translations stopped in the Ramba Ral arc. The Flashback chapters start after the Jaburo arc. There's quite a gap between the Ral arc and the flashback arcs we're starting on, and consequently, ppl dissatisfied with the simmons work are trying to REDO scanlations starting straight from square one-- Book one page one.
I dont have that kind of patience, really. Of course I'd love to see the entire Origin manga in english, but I only intend to do my part on the most interesting content- the flashback arcs.
It's a big mess, really :/ but luckily the arcs stand on their own pretty well. as long as you have some knowledge of events in the TV series.
