Scanlation refers to the process of translating and typesetting manga into other languages, primarily English, by non-professional translators. Scanlations are often available online for free or at a low cost. While they can be a good way to access manga, they are often of lower quality than officially licensed translations and may contain inaccuracies or errors. Officially licensed translations are usually more polished and accurate.
