    What is your favourite Yōkai?

    Definitely rokurokubi, although not for any particularly compelling reason. I read a couple manga with rokurokubi characters (Kanojo wa Rokurokubi, Mononoke Sharing) and now I just really enjoy how ridiculous they are. Like, they're not even very scary, and they barely even seem spiritual or...

    [Question] How much money have you spent/made scanlating?

    Someone here on MangaDex asked if they could give me $10 when I first started. I'd only put out like 2 chapters and I didn't even mention or ask for donations, but I accepted because it seemed like a very sincere gesture of thanks. I bought a mousepad with a wrist cushion so I'd be more...

    The story behind "The Flame Credit"

    Very well written. It's really interesting to me to see so much documentation of this incident. Websites develop their own histories, and I think this will be remembered for a long time. I've never heard of this happening after that long a period of inactivity, but my god I hope it doesn't...

    About the recent rehosting drama :rejected:

    It's hard to refute many of your core points. Strictly speaking, it would be extremely efficient to run the site as you've described towards the goal of "simply hosting as much manga as possible." However, that doesn't mean I agree this is actually a good idea. In fact, I think it'd be maybe the...

    I dont know if this is the real Problem on MangaDex , so im just posting this

    @Serelanordir I find your attempt to recap everything very intriguing and admirable for some reason. I suppose because no one really enjoys having to wade through this much drama and yet you went to all the trouble to create a summary of it anyway. I can't guess what compelled you to do this...

    Girigiri Out - Vol. 2 Ch. 11 - Kawaya-Sama Is Watching (Part Two)

    @wanko_wanko Aw, rip. Nice work all the same, though. Always glad to see underdog manga getting brought to life by people like you guys.

    Combating Misinformation: Official Statement

    Thanks again for making another announcement post. Personally it doesn't sit right with me to see something written like "We’ve addressed these numerous times on our Discord" because if there's news related to your website, it should be posted on the website. And, well, you did, so that's good...

    Kako and the False Detective - Vol. 2 Ch. 13 - The Invited Calamity

    Oh nice! I'm so glad to see a new chapter for this, while also feeling very embarrassed to be reminded that our last release was 1 year ago, lol. Keep up the good work!

    Sayonara Mangadex, putting down our rose colored glasses.

    Huh. This sure.... happened. I don't think the main "idea" (as hard as it is to pin down) of this retreat is very substantial. The notion that MangaDex might someday find some way to become a legitimate business is not really as much of a specter as its being treated as. I could maybe imagine...

    Girigiri Out - Vol. 2 Ch. 10 - Kawaya-Sama Is Watching (Part One)

    "Great premise. I think I'll stop reading before they screw it up."

    Wait, I did think of an example, Saike Mata Shite mo. It's on this site. I technically still have it set to "Reading" but I might drop it soon for this very reason. The premise and first volume are really cool. In fact, it arguably feels like it should have ended there, lol. But It's now...

    Boku no Kokoro no Yabai Yatsu - Vol. 1 Ch. 11 - I Broke Through

    I like this manga a lot. It kind of reminds me of the opposite of WataMote? How the guy thinks he's a bad person, but he's not really that bad. Also a map of the town 80 years prior does actually sound like it could be fun. Although I guess a bunch of teens wouldn't want to admit something like...

    "Great premise. I think I'll stop reading before they screw it up."

    I already know as I'm writing this that I'm not going to have any specific examples for what you brought up, so I guess I'm not really contributing in that regard. But in my experience, I usually attribute this "bad ending" or "wasted potential" phenomenon to the way stories are planned from the...

    I was laughing way too hard at "That looked so difficult it made me go blind" What a pleasant chapter...

    Improve clarification for removed manga/chapters

    MangaDex has actually addressed before (although you don't have to take my word for it) that their hope is, by including links to external information sources like MangaUpdates, they can cut down on the amount of archiving they have to do firsthand. It makes sense to me, at least. Readers may...

    By Any Chance Is There a Gyaru Kind to Us? Anthology Comic - Vol. 2 Ch. 9 - Let me rest, Kirishima-san!

    @undercurses It's also written on his forehead probably as a reference/joke evoking Kinnikuman. Very classic wrestling manga from Shonen Jump, known in English usually as "Ultimate Muscle." Image example: Also, this chapter finally had some big ol' gal boobs on display. Nice.

    Clarification on rules and moderation

    Thank you for this post. This clarifies nearly everything to a satisfactory degree. I have one question, though. The existing rule 3.2.7 states: Does this mean that offensive content or anything otherwise in violation of rules such as 5.1 would be allowed in a manga release supposing that it...

    Ueno-san wa Bukiyou - Vol. 1 Ch. 1 - Rokka-kun

    In the aftermath of this incident, I have had some communication with certain members of staff, and I explained to them what my complaints/grievances are, and why I chose to do what I did. For transparency's sake, I'm posting my message to the mod unedited here, so that anyone entering this...
