FAQ

Here are some answers to questions that are frequently asked:

Question: When is the next chapter of [insert name of series] coming out? Answer: It'll be out when it's ready. Who knows, might be in one day, one week or most probably, in one month. Asking repeatedly is not going to make us release it any faster. Bother Casusby and he'll delay things by weeks! The more you pester us with this type of question, the more it annoys us ^_^;;;;

Question: What's the status of [insert name of series]? You haven't released anything from that series in while. Answer: Guys (or gals), that's basically the same thing as the previous question... If you are so eager to know what the status of each series is, go to our forums and look at the "Project Status" threads that are stickied in each of our projects' subforums.

Question: Since when has dynasty-scans been around? I'd like to know more about the group's history. Answer: Dynasty was founded in 2005, in order to pick up Pastel, after it was licensed by Del Rey and Animewaves had dropped the series. The three founding members were Wyvern_D (editor), Co_ol (translator) and ChronoXVIII (editor, proofreader). The group started with only one project but quickly expanded the number of series scanlated, favoring shoujo-ai and mangas that had kickass artwork. After ChronoXVIII's death (yes, the group has had a member that passed away), quincy became leader up until July 2006, where he decided to move on to other things. At that point, Casusby jumped in and since then, has ruled over dynasty-scans as its supreme leader, ruling over staff using violence, a whip and his glacial stare.

Question: Who is this "Casusby" that is often making the announcements? Answer: He's dynasty-scans' almightly, great and benevolant leader. All hail Casusby-sama! You don't want to mess with this guy or else, you won't be reading the next chapter of your favorite manga anytime soon. He reigns over staff members with an iron grip and will track down unproductive and incompetent staff without mercy in order to hand out his divine punishment.

Question: I love your scanlations and would like to somehow help out. What can I do? Answer: Finally, a real question. If you'd like to help us out, consider joining us. Click on the "Join Us" button in the menu bar on the left side of the site and find out which positions we are currently recruiting for.

Question: I don't know any Japanese, my English is horrible and I don't know how to use Photoshop. However, I still want to help you guys! What can I do?! Answer: Oh boy, so you basically have none of the skills required to become a staff member? Don't worry, you can still be involved in our group. Come and idle (or even talk!) on our IRC channel or make an account on our forums and start making quality posts.

Question: In the "Downloads" section, when I click on the "Afkrotch.com" link, it leads me to a Youtube video. Where are the manga downloads? Answer: Read the instructions more carefully. You've just been rickrolled!
