I also sort of, kind of prefer the look of the "before" version of the above image to the "after" one. I understand what you were trying to do, Xeztin, cleaning up the image, but the methods used boasted the contrast a bit too much, at least to my eyes.
My apologies if I come across as overly critical. I certainly appreciate you taking the time to track down these and other fan-works!
This was actually my first project with cleaning and such, one of my very first posts on Kanzenshuu I believe
You are absolutely right, these are bootlegs or re-drawings of the official ani-manga to make them look more like normal manga.
The bolded statement is basically what more or less happened, I came across GT, Chinese and French scanlators and translators, Zeroverse, Young Jijii (etc) which took a higher priority.
Now a day's I really don't have the time to take on projects other than uploading, which is sad to say! I do sometimes help get projects started though like translations and such.
