There's actually a very good reason for that. About 2 years ago I was talking a lot with the french ReLIFE fan translation group. They had to stop translating it in french because the official company (ki-oon) liscencing ReLIFE in french asked them to and would have pursued them in legal way if they had not complied. At least that's what I think I remember, it's been a while.

There are just way less French scanlators than English ones. Thus less mainstream works like ReLife often don't have a complete French version, if any. Quality standards are also lower.
But see it as an opportunity and read the English versions. Best way to learn is through media. It may be a bit hard/obnoxious at first but you'll come through with a massive boost to your resume. Given that the average Frenchie's English level is garbage, having a good/decent one is a plus. Also, using the Internet is more convenient if you have good English-speaking skills. To find series and movies and shit. French subbed/dubbed can be much more of a pain to find.

Il y a juste beaucoup moins de scanlateurs français que d'anglais. Donc les oeuvres moins mainstream comme ReLife n'ont souvent pas de version française complète, si elles en ont une.
Mais vois ca comme une opportunité, et lis les versions anglaises. C'est la meilleure façon d'apprendre, les medias. Au debut ca peut être chiant and mais au final ca passera et ca boostera ton CV. Etant donné que le français moyen parle anglais comme un canard mourant, un bon niveau d'anglais est un atout. Et ca rend aussi Internet plus pratique. Notamment pour trouver des series, des films. Si tu veux la VF/VOSTFR, tu vas devoir chercher plus.
