Hi, I have a question for people who have used either ebookjapan or bookwalker. Which site is more recommended? Or what are the pros & cons of both sites or the one you mainly use?
I want to read manga & light novel in japanese and I live overseas, not in japan of course. So perhaps this must also be taken into consideration.
(pls forgive me if I posted in the wrong section)

I like Bookwalker and it uses PayPal. The site has a lot of interesting features that I don't use, and the mobile app is okay. That said, I use BookLive mostly. You can follow a series, and you'll get an email when the price drops. It's a pain to use without a credit card, though PlayAsia is now selling point cards for it.

Bookwalker should be fine for you.

Personally I wouldn't recommend BW (jp) if you plan to RIP manga or read it on desktop. Most of their stuff is just 1200px height or even 1024px. With very small part of 1600px. For handheld devices it's fine I think but on 30"+ (in vertical orientation) it looks like shit literally :/

Edit: also living outside JP is small problem since BW limits hentai for japanese IP only. VPN/proxy is solution ofcourse but personally I CBA :)
