Unsurprisingly, multi-person translator groups have the most projects with famous Japanese light novel translator group Baka-Tsuki ranking number one. The next four are all Chinese translator groups. Out of 1162 total groups, 652 or 56 % are groups with only one project.

 

My own thoughts: I don’t know if this is actually an economy of scale but web hosting, organizers, and editors could be considered shared resources for big groups.

Note: This is based on project information so only the most recent translator for a project is included.
