Nakama Manga Scanlations

What is Nakama?
In summary, Nakama is a boy's love scanlation group who has been providing joy to the masses since approximately 2002.
Scanlating is the process of scanning and translating manga from it's native language - usually from Japanese or Chinese, to English, French or German. Basically, scanlating is to manga, what fansubbing is to anime. It is a fan-driven, non-profit process as a way for fans to enjoy manga that has not yet been licensed overseas and would otherwise be unavailable. As with fansubbing, once a title has been licensed, it is usually dropped by the scanlation group. Nakama drops all licensed titles and kindly asks that all licensed titles no longer be distributed. Support the mangaka and keep the yaoi market strong by buying their work! ♥ Nakama uses the term "boy's love" to describe manga containing anything from hard yaoi to shounen-ai. There has long been debates in regards to the terms boy's love [or bl], yaoi and shounen-ai. Rather than get into all that here, if you are unfamiliar we suggest you check out places like Aestheticism, the YaoiCon site and Yaoi@Wikipedia to educate yourself and come to your own understanding.
