Mangascans
The Code
Strictly Honored
Dropped or stopped distributing that title when an official license hit their territory, the gold standard of The Code.
Profile
The first modern scanlation group, founded by darkshard. Finished scanlating all available Love Hina volumes in 2001 and disbanded shortly after, but its IRC channel, #mangascans on DALnet, is where MangaProject, MangaScreener, and ShoujoMagic all trace their roots back to.
Signature style
Watermarked releases directing readers to the site and IRC channel, where the community that would define the entire first generation of scanlation actually formed.
