    KyoAni Gofundme/Donation Drive

    The building was entirely up to code. You might take issue with the fact that the Japanese code for small office buildings doesn't mandate sprinklers, but that code is not the responsibility of the head of an animation company. The fire exit was open and clear of debris. The people attempting...

    KyoAni Gofundme/Donation Drive

    I've read through a number of news sites, and according to police the attacker had no connection to the company. A local woman who found him hiding in her yard after the attack said he told the police Kyoani had ripped him off or stolen his ideas (There might be some translation problems here...

    Number Girl - Vol. 2 Ch. 25

    @TrueGoddessReincarnation Most Japanese homes have room heat/ac, not central, and electricity prices in Japan are pretty high compared to North America or Europe. So they heat/cool rooms as needed, and using a kotatsu means you don't have to pay to heat the entire room. Also Japanese homes tend...

    Poll about scanlation groups that left.

    Clicked the third option. I'm willing to follow other sites than MD, but none of the groups that left are working on anything I'm interested in. Meraki used to scanlate stuff I enjoyed, but dropped it all in favour of action manhua.

    Number Girl

    Someone looked at the original person these girls are all clones of and said "I'm gonna need at least a dozen more of this adorable asshole."

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

    I dropped Doll-Kara as well. It started off really well, but at some point I realized that business and marketing were going to be one of the major sources of drama. If I wanted that, I'd go back and reread my old class notes.

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

    Yeah, some ideas just can't hold up to prolonged storylines. Or maybe the idea is okay but the team producing it can't figure out how to keep drawing the story out without weakening it. I'm not naming any names here, but when you start drawing things out by having time skips and flashbacks...

    Clarification on rules and moderation

    A new reader has found a manga they enjoy and they're happily reading through it when they stumble into the so-called credits page: "OSAMA BIN LADEN DID NOTHING WRONG LOL U MAD BRO". They decide not to risk reading any more manga on Mangadex. This is bad for Mangadex. The Elusive Taco asks...

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

    I've been looking at my lists and noticed that I have a few manga that I stopped reading despite enjoying the start of the story. Not a lot, but enough to notice a pattern. I enjoy the premise of the story and even the way it starts to develop, but something makes me think that the rest of the...

    Gaikotsu Shotenin Honda-san - Vol. 1 Ch. 2 - Yaoi girls from overseas!!!

    @AnimuVsMango I think the mangaka is a woman who uses a male avatar for privacy.

    Clarification on rules and moderation

    Forcing morality on people has nothing to do with it. It's just a matter of telling people to leave their drama at home. This is a manga scanlation site. Why should it be used as a platform for political or religious views or personal beefs between groups? All of these groups have access to...

    @2hen4tai There was some Drama between scanlation groups and Meraki Scans pulled their stuff from Mangadex. You can still find it at their own site.

    Clarification on rules and moderation

    Is there a 2.5 vote option? "Yes, I believe that the current rules should be more clearly defined and fleshed out so that all loopholes are closed. Current moderation efforts are satisfactory." I think the moderators are doing a good job. I also think that if you know there are loopholes for...

    Why Naitou - Vol. 2 Ch. 18.5

    @IJustMadeThisToComment The people doing the scanlation had some sort of dispute (either with Mangadex or other groups here? I'm not sure exactly what happened) so they pulled everything they worked on off this site. You can still find them at Meraki Scans, but it seems like they've dropped Why...

    In your opinion what is the most annoying/overused manga cliche?

    Romance protagonists with horrible personalities. Either they're so bland that no one would bother talking to this person for more than 30 seconds, or they're just genuinely horrible people. I like stories with ordinary and/or flawed characters, but some stories take ordinary and push it to "No...
