I just finished watching the anime and I really enjoyed it so I think I will probably buy the manga. I read on some amazon reviews and reddit that the translation is not well done though and that the fan translation is much better. What do you guys think of it? Is it worth buying the original english manga?

For supporting the author absolutely yes, other than that no and if you hardly want that official translation you can use torrent

Since it received critiques starting from the first volume about the translation, did they fix it? Does it get better with the next volumes? If it's just the first volumes to be badly translated I wouldn't mind it, as long as it gets better because I would really like to read the physical manga and still be able to enjoy it.

As long as I know, there's no fixes until now.
I don't know if it's get better translation or not in next volumes but there are still some bad translation errors even in recent volumes like in chapter 70 Kaguya saying "I'm not a pervert" but it translated completely the opposite that "I am a perv" and still Kaguya calls the president as "Shirogane" and not "president"...

But I didn't care much about official translations so it's better to ask other people.

I'd highly recommend reading the scans, and then buying the volumes if you really want to support the author/industry. The fan translation is one of the best I've ever seen. You can tell that the team behind it cares about the story and what they're doing. It's also very consistent and I honestly can't remember many grammatical or naming errors.

Really? I didn't think it was that bad to the point they actually translated the opposite lol.

I honestly don't like reading the scans much but I guess I don't have much choice at this point ahah

Well thank you all guys for your answers!
