Site Update - 14th of May 2025

[Malkraz]

I don't, the problem is that the lack of communication while doing changes behind the scene is making this worse than it has to be.

what communication do u need? who cares what these cocksuckers have to say? the site is done, call them slurs and pack it in

IMPORTANT SUGGESTION TO EVERYONE

Now that it's clear Mangadex is passing to new owners who want to focus on "content creators", anyone who wants to copy their subscriptions should do it immediately, cause I doubt we'll have all series listed for long even if all chapters are removed.

Mark my words, this site will keep no information of series at all, our hopes of the site becoming a possible community hub and alternative to mangaupdates and mal just won't happen.

I know I'll work on my spreadsheet all day tomorrow to get all my 3.5k subscriptions cause I won't be surprised if the site as we know don't last even a fucking week.

I'm most bummed to be losing the forum community here, lots of great convo's I've had here, I hope whoever takes over once this site dies has a robust forum system with good moderation tools and a fun community.

 

[TGN]

Wow, these two threads about the DMCA have each maintained equal views and replies. How often as that managed to happen if numbers this big? Alright, site's dying, listen to some music and go with the floww

(It would be amusing if me posting songs managed to last nearly as long as the forums have been up again tho.)

o7 It's been real y'all

 

[lightingcloud]

idk I read the FAQs and it seems to be that the "content creators" are the scanl-word-that-cannot-be-said but hey

 

[Sprocket]

I've tried both alternatives other groups are running to, and I can't get past the site design for either or them, they're just way too much like every other mediocre aggregator
Say what you will about Mangadex, their site design was brilliant

 

[Jaffe26]

Don't worry guys. These corpos will never win.

I've seen the fall of Mangarock and Batoto, but the community will always find a way to bring what we love back.

The sad thing is Mangadex was never against these corpos and even supports the authors on where we can find and buy their works. But looks like they never thought of that and just straight f-up Mangadex. Now let's see how these not known artists will get their support.

Without Mangadex I guess I'll pretty much stop reading comments, other places are just not made for proper discussions like here, it's just not the same

Theorically could be, but I have my doubts if they would go that way since they're already having legal problems

With this, is Mangadex officially dead? Since most mangas are gone.

Someone made a tool to extract your library

https://www.reddit.com/r/mangadex/comments/1kq664i

( not sure if reddit links are allowed but I don't care at this point.)

Just follow the instructions, it's pretty simple. I used it 20 minutes ago. You can then import the file in Excel or similar software.

"exe"?
I use loonix.

 

[nhat2410]

Somehow block various countries's IPs in the process. Guess it's time to jump off the dying ship

Is someone going to make an edit of the Order 66 scene from star wars, but with it about Mangadex?

The order 66 music is looping in my head as I read the thread

 

[BackBrainKick]

Sad times to be sure. Might have to go back to watching anime now. I feel for everyone involved on this side of things.

I’m currently just using reddit and cubari, but I’ll probably join the other place when you can get upload permission without asking on the discord.

Not allowed to tell or I’ll get banned.
Weeb central won’t allow user uploads though, already confirmed.

Is it perhaps Comick?

Brother the site is over who gives a shit if you get banned? You know you can't even delete your own account right now, right?

I wonder if they even delete the accounts. They could easily be leaving a copy on their database for many reasons.

I just used notepad. MD>Library, 4 Square option: Lists just the title and an image. Select All(CTRL A), Copy(CTRL C), and then Paste(CTRL V) into preferred text editor. Select next page. Repeat. Depending on how many follows you have, may take a few minutes.

It is totally legit for publishers to fight piracy or - to give it a better name - unauthorized translations. That doesnˋt mean it makes sense to do this.

Only to a degree.

 

[Tscheddov]

Works for me, both from September 2019 with eight captures.

Does this link display anything for you ?
https://web.archive.org/web/2025032...cb86fb7a/sewayaki-kitsune-no-senko-san#expand
where the captured website should display i just get a white, blank page in the webarchive frame.



uploaders/ groups have started to delete their uploads here already.

Well done MD, well done.

I get a fully blank page, but it's black (dark site plugin). The two others that were posted above that are also blank.

okay, then its not just me. i wanted to check out who uploaded (and now deleted) some of the english senko chapters.
the group was STALKER , that i do remember.
latest chapter was 93. a lot of, but not all, english stalker chapters for senko went missing yesterday.
i assume the uploader removed them himself to avoid being thrown under the bus by MD if shit hits the fan.

a shame that the web archive does not work properly

MD should remove the "scanlator friendly" part from its description. And disable the "Mangadex needs your Support" banner/ pop up.

no one in their right mind will still be giving them money now. its a taunt

 

[JVick]

Dislable the "Mangadex needs your Support" banner/ pop up.

They clearly need the money now since they need to employ someone full time to receive every takedown notice of every German company.
