Since the video features a cover of Oshi no Ko my first thought was "it can't be that bad, it's not like that series is unavailable".

Just a click baity cover
But some less trendy mangas and especially old stuff might really be lost for good
Or at least really hard to find and with translation too

I'll hold my head out for the site resurrecting with a moustache and glasses.
Manga sites are like cockroaches, dammit, they stamp one out, two more appear.

There are still a couple dinosaurs with old stuff so it's not that big of a loss.

If those other ones get the boot as well... then, ouch.

Everything won't be lost, but finding stuff will be tedious.

batoto died in 2018. Any site with a similar name was just a cheap knockoff riding the coattails of a better site.

Is their Discord server also gone?

Is their Discord server also gone?

Yes, on the weekend they gave it a three-day timer before they nuked it to oblivion.

Is their Discord server also gone?

Yep sadly

Rest in peace bato you will be missed

Most likely due to hosting those retarded korean webtoon as usual too but these kinda site operators dont really care. Well hope to see something spins up again.

Who in 2026 uses Bato?

Rest in peace bato you will be missed

No one gonna miss Bato, the site was horrible in every aspect. Almost every other aggregator site has Bato's manga database...

There's a great hentai there, and now the treasure is finally buried forever

I heard the developer who bought it went dark leading to this whole kerfuffle. Could've been they just ghosted, or they could also have died due to Tapas-sassins.

Doesn’t have to be perfect to be missed. It still mattered to a lot of people?

Turns out the “rest in peace” was premature. Site just got renamed.

Lol maybe the one who bought it represent the webtoon people.

it's not dead
site is alive under different domain name
the discord server as well
but they don't telegraph the links to both that openly

True, but my point still stands.

May I ask for a link in DMs?
