With its great craftsmanship and involving stories, manga has reached such a phenomenon across the globe as it captivates its readers. Most of the people who are not Japanese usually read these works mainly on a linguistic level. Translating manga and putting them into circulation has so far really boosted TCB Scans’ efforts of bringing Japanese storytelling to global levels.

Their explicit motive was to offer manga in a different language than Japanese and never compromise on its quality. The group initially scanned relatively unknown shows but gradually received fame for its very loyal translations and timely upload. This has made TCB Scans a reliable site for good manga translations.
Translation of manga is quite a challenge beyond language barriers. It is to capture all those nuances, humor, and cultural references buried deep into the original work. Very talented translators fluent in Japanese as well as English guarantee that the crux of the story stays intact and do a great job by their awareness of the culture involved in mangas convey aptly the intention behind them and the feelings behind their making.
The book needs to be typeset into the artwork of the manga during the translation process. The typefaces that will accentuate the original design yet will be readable and clear have to be selected during this stage. Editors painstakingly check the flow and correctness of the translations for ensuring that they meet TCB Scans’ standards, hence enhancing the overall work.
