I'll ask around for scans, and give you ok to start whenever I confirm the scans...

-Edit-
Found someone who has the complete script to RoV done all the bunkos... so I might just ask her...

Tell me about legend of mana....

the manga of seijen densetsu is mostly a comedy and only roughly following the games story and adding a lot of stuff that hasnt been clear in the game
(because the story is being retold you dont need to know anything about the game ^^)
this is definetly the only good game manga I know (it is actually putting the games hero as an complete idiot^^)

Its simple fancy-fantasy-comedy not a game manga^^

you need to pass our test before we take you on as an editor... and we already have editors that are just sitting around waiting for something to work on...

Tinu, we asked about Mana, but unless you give me more information i can't approve of it.
We're all about obscure manga, but most game manga are notoriously bad... so thats why online scanlation groups stay away from them. I'd prefer to do an original story. So if you have access to any other manga not being scanlated let me know -_-

I know the star ocean and valkyrie profile manga

but the only good game manga is Legend of Mana (and Marie and Elie which I could translate too but another group is already doing it, Janimes i think)

If you read it it seem like a mix out of slayers and Zushino

Well.. I could trans vol 1, you guys get some scans and try it
if you like it 'alright'
if you dont 'too bad then'

you wouldnt regret it

oh yeah... I could trans Marie and Elie^^
and......Furi Kuri..... cant think of smth else right now-_-

I think 2 books in RoV have been released in english long time ago (translated by Fredrik L. Schodt), but they're also long since out of print. I don't know who put the books out, perhaps he did so himself. But it might perhaps be a good idea to check if someone still owns the license for it (or perhaps the licens for only those 2 books? I don't know how those things work really). If it isn't licensed, then I'm all for this project. I love old-school shoujo.

Tinu, ermmm I wouldn't give a go on translating just yet. Mainly because I cannot promise the project will start unless we obtain scans, which like translating, depends on whoever volunteers, whenever that happens... so just to be on the safe side, I wouldn't translate it yet...
