Fans announce remake that removes explicit child content but doesnt remove the gore and body horror:

>We’ve been working on a fan edit of the Made in Abyss manga aimed at people who want to read the story but are uncomfortable with some of the sexual content involving minors.

We have a team of skilled artists helping us keep edits subtle and as seamless with the original art and story as possible. This includes careful redraws and small text adjustments where needed. Nothing plot-relevant is changed (in our opinion). Please note, this edit does not remove gore or violence.

We really, really love this series, and this project has been our way of making it more accessible. Please keep in mind that this edit is not meant to replace the original manga. It is intended for mature audiences only (17+), and we encourage everyone to support the official release. We understand this kind of fan edit isn’t for everyone.

Fans did not like that, and Mod had to justify leaving it up despite anti piracy rules

>Beyond the fact that it’s disrespectful to the original source material, it’s also just piracy. They state in the post that the project isn’t intended as a “replacement” for the source material, but that’s quite literally exactly what it is.
It’s specifically an alternative to the original manga, and will pull away readers who would’ve otherwise chosen to push through the source material. I’m not a big anti-piracy guy personally, but having both of those factors present at the same time definitely crosses a line for me.
I do respect the amount effort and time put into this project, at least to an extent, but it’s still very misguided imo. Also, even if this post doesn’t include any direct links, it still seems a little weird to keep it up when the subreddit has an explicit no piracy rule.

>Not only supporting censorship and piracy but also the disrespect to the author is insane. You call yourself fans and spit on it and try making it something it is not
