Manga images without dialog
I noticed that a lot of the manga images have dialog pulled and was wondering if there's a particular reason for this. It adds an additional layer of work to take the dialog out and I can understand if these were sourced from scanlations, but wouldn't think it would be an issue of the source was the raws or the Viz translation, is there?

 * The dialogue is removed to try and hide the rather obvious shift from Viz's official translation to the Scanlation halfway through the series (all online sources stop with the official translation after the Martial Arts Dining Arc) since the Scanlation uses varying fonts throughout, along with different styles towards character dialogue (jokes differing from Viz's translation, the portrayal of Principal Kuno's mannerisms and even character names on occasion) it could cause confusion for those who are unfamiliar with the series. --Trivi-AM (talk) 18:48, December 16, 2011 (UTC)


 * Right on. I'll keep this in mind if I upload any manga images.  Does this need to be mentioned in the rules under Galleries and Photos?   BrokenSphere  (Talk) 19:05, December 16, 2011 (UTC)

 * Raws of the manga can be found here as an alternative source for the scanlations.  BrokenSphere  (Talk) 16:10, December 19, 2011 (UTC)
