Seeing him getting more unhinged as time went, it feels like the acorn head is grooming him to become the next demon king so that new hero can kill him.
This reads to me like the opposite what I believe is intended (spending an amount of time in that space results in less time having occurred in the other world).
don't worry mc all you have to do is manifest destiny and colonize the jrpg world under the premise of them being uncivilized compared to earth's more advanced civilization
People left because of this site taking down stuff but its because it’ll take down stuff when requested is probably why it’s probably relatively safe despite having a giant target on its head.
Yep, the system flawed heavily. If they pulling out souls from Earth why picking up random person like random Japs salaryman? Why not those Earth bright brain? We have a lot lying around and not everybody knows everything. And why dropping them in the middle of a FUCKING JUNGLE?! You want to revitalize your world or to revitalize your animal stomach?
It’s weird coming back to mangadex cause I left it after it was nuked, now the site I left it for was also nuked……I wonder how long this one has left again?😂
If MD keeps letting scansgroups paywall chapters on their own websites? Not much longer.
We're already on the radar. You guys think that DMCA strike earlier was bad? That was just a warning shot. They know that these scans groups are using MD as a sort of advertising system to get people to come to their websites. That's why they went after MD and not the scans groups themselves.
And the reasoning is perfectly sound. Why let people pay for an illegal service when they can pay for a legal one? Yes, the illegal one may be cheaper, but that's still a potentially paying customer they're stealing away.
Yes, it all boils down to making more and more money. But the moment you start trying to profit off of unlicensed scanslation, then you've become an enemy of the publishers.
Which is why MD needs to drop the hammer on these groups. The first time was just a shot across the bow. The next time? They're gonna make us feel it.

Nah. I wont say they didnt care when it was only fan translations. But once people starting taking tips, donations, and commissions they took notice.
While true paywalls and Patreon accounts made them move a little more vigorously, they had already started moving to reclaim the money the P2V translators were making.
The translation community showed there was money to be made, and the Corpos and investors are only happy when that money is flowing into their pockets.

I agree. Scanlation has been on a downward spiral ever since the groups that engaged in it for the love of the medium began to be replaced by entities--groups or individuals--that engaged in scanlation for profit. In the old days, the scans were out--and that was it. Labors of love, and you could tell--the only thing I remember them truly caring about was people nagging them for faster releases.
Conversely, the people those passionate scanlators got replaced by couldn't (and can't) go one chapter without telling you about how they "need donations", or how you ought to "read it first" on their site. They got bolder over time--like GDS doing what it does, or the scanlation groups that bastardize manga with watermarks just so they could lay claim to the work. They would put more effort into revenue-generating measures (however futile, in some cases) than they would the quality of their own scanlation.
The pursuit of lucre behind even the less egregious of those actions are as plain as day to see for those who didn't have an actual legal claim to the IPs, so of course the publishers would get their guns.
lol THAT is the goddess of fertility?
Is that supposed to be some kind of elaborate jab at the state of Japanese masculinity today? If so, I'd have to respect it...but it can't be with this kind of character design. The beauty of the ostensible female lead (I don't remember that goddess' name) is outshined by that of Firil, who's apparently a side character--and the MC, mouthpiece of the author, calls all of those goddesses equal in that regard.
