History
MangaArt initially started out as a private mailing list founded by MiMi-chan
at the beginning of 2002. In her quest to expose people to the world of manga,
she gathered some people from her mailing list, and they began "scanlating" manga,
which was then distributed to the mailing list members. However, to further spread
the love outside of the mailing list, this founding group of people soon formed
the group Rebellious Angels and expanded their releases through #MangaProject
on IRC. Eventually on May 24, 2002, the name of the group was changed to MangaArt, and a permanent #MangaArt channel was
set up.
Some time in 2003, ShounenArt--a shounen division--was formed and ran by bgarion and MidnightStar to deviate from the shoujo goodness MangaArt was well known for. However, ShounenArt eventually broke off from MangaArt and became the current Manga-Mania.
So for a period of time, MangaArt continued as a shoujo-only group. However, some staff members became restless and felt that just doing shoujo wasn't enough. Wanting to dabble with other genres of manga, not just shounen like the previous ShounenArt, they decided to create a whole new division. Taking the idea of the initial Rebellious Angels, the name RebelliousArt was decided on and formed on January 29, 2006. Hence, RebelliousArt ventures where MangaArt refuses to tread, doing projects of a variety of genre ranging from smut to shounen.
Eventually through all the hard work of scanning, translating, and editing, MangaArt grew to be what you see today. There have been a few hiccups along the way, but we are still scanlating. Please support us and the mangakas as well! Without the mangakas, we wouldn't exist today. But most importantly, enjoy the releases.
About MangaArt

different kinds cute shoujo manga. It is a team of manga lovers working

About RebelliousArt
Some of you may recall that MangaArt used to be the home to some
rebellious angels. Now some have escaped and became MangaArt's fallen
angels. In their rebellion, they even made their own division, an
extension of ShounenArt.
So, what do these inferno, fallen angels do? They work hard to give you the manga that MangaArt was afraid to touch. That's right~! From shounen to smut shoujo and anything in between. That's RebelliousArt [RA] for you. So, anything with a [RA] tag means that it's not your standard MangaArt release. Enjoy!
We no longer have a subgroup to work on specific projects. MangaArt now does every type of project the staff wants to do, regardless of the genre.
