Chapter 215 Discussions and Chapter 216 Predictions

[Koenig]

Lately,they have been posting Naruto,Bleach and One Piece.So,they much have reach some kind of deal with Viz.Maybe,because of this,the other guys are waiting for mangastream to release D Gray Man.

I don't even read the spoilers and translations.I only get to read this manga once a month,so I don't want to spoil it.But,this is going too far.The author taking sometimes two months to release a chapter and now,nobody looks like they care enough to release this chapter in English.

Well we care...its just that most of us do not know Japanese...*Sad face*

It's not like Hoshino skipping a month in between chapters is anything new; this has been going on for a while, and we're lucky that she's even posting chapters at this point. I know like I sound like one of those people that say "Hey, everything's fins as long as we get something", and the monthly skips irritate me as well, but we also have to consider her poor health. She seems as if she's extremely prone to illnesses, and she even undergoes major surgery at times for her wrist that she hurt. In fact, at least one of her previous hiatus' were because of this. Not to mention that this wrist injury makes it painful for her to draw. Also, I seriously doubt that "no one cares enough to release this chapter in English". Several English translations have been released even later than this month's. You not only have to consider that people volunteer to do these translations, you also have to take into account that we just had a major holiday on the same day as when the raws were released.

Also, I've concluded that if the translations aren't released by Tuesday, I will take it upon myself to complete the translation. I would do so sooner, but my knowledge with scanlations is only limited, not to mention that it usually takes an entire team to translate a single chapter. So, just in case the scanlation teams aren't done with the final product, at least know that you will have a basic version of what will be released.

I know where you can find a separate translation, I think; #DGray-Man101 Blog on deviantART I haven't read it cause I didn't want spoilers, but this should help if you do translate. If you'd like I can help you out with putting it on the page (If that's what you were going to do)
I wasn't trying to complain either; I know of the situation and that translators have lives, though I wasn't aware that translation had taken longer before...

[Skittlez]

^-^ Thank you for the spoiler script; it'll help me double-check my own translation to be sure that it's correct.
If you guys would like, I suppose I could start working on it early tomorrow if the scanlation isn't out by then.
Alzander, I'd be truly grateful to you if you could help me with this. I can do the basics of putting the English translation on the page, but if you could assist me in cleaning it up, that would be a huge help. As you can most likely see, I'm not very confident in my picture-editing techniques XD

Sure thing :} I'm happy to help in any way I can

[CrimsonPhantom]

yay teamwork
:]

[TheDanaDobre]

Oh my god, stop it! This is what I get for going through the forums before the translations come out. At first, it's just Nea possessing Allen in chap 214...

My head, it hurts. My mind literally does not compute.

Also, I despise not being able to read Japanese! D:

[Kannagi]

This is what I don't get:

*spoiler* (it won't let me hide it).

*********

Why would Kanda start turning into a fallen? His innocence became reformed into crystal type because he found his own will to fight... and his reason was to fight for Allen, who let him have a taste of freedom. Yes, he is betraying the order but not his innocence. So why hasn't Allen started turning into a fallen?



Also, I didn't understand much so why are people saying Allen is becoming "younger" ?

[Skittlez]

Well, truthfully, we don't know what Kanda's reason was for fighting all this time. All we know now is that it's to help Allen, which means that it has changed. I'm thinking that Kanda's current reason to fight conflicts with his previous one, which is why he's showing signs of becoming a fallen one. Also, Allen's reason to fight (To save the akuma and protect people) doesn't conflict with the path he's chosen to take, so currently he's not in danger of becoming a fallen one, as long as he keeps this goal in mind.

There's also the possibility that his regeneration abilities have something to do with not turning into a fallen one. I may be mistaken, but it didn't seem like the innocence was synchronizing with Kanda and Alma well. In fact, it seemed just like the experiments that they would do with regular people, with the exception of Kanda and Alma's regeneration ability. So, it could be possible that the regeneration would prevent them from turning into a fallen one before. Now however, since Kanda's regenerative abilities are at an all-time low, the innocence could once again return to transforming him into a fallen one. Then again, this is just a theory...

[GoldenStar]

ok, I know this is completely random and maybe out of place, but you mentioned Kanda and this was what i first thought of.

Is it just me, or is Kanda's hair invincible?
think about, he has been growing it out for flippan ever, and I don't think I've seen it messed up once in the manga or what little of the anima I have seen. It's kind of the same with all of the other characters (except lenalee and choaji) but you notice it the most with Kanda. I guess hot people can't afford to fight ugly XD
