STOP! PIRACY - Vol. 1 Ch. 3 - Illegal Websites and Scammers

And... yet another chapter in this series!
The theme? Pirate sites and their monetisation through advertisements. (That's why I added that extra page at the start, cough cough)
So, tell me, what do you think about it?
I'll read everything, I swear!

Long live piracy!

A little bit better and less cringey than the other chapters tbh. Or maybe I'm already getting used to it?

Honestly I have no clue what's going on, all I know is I'm broke and bored and I can get manga for free here, if I could afford to pay for the official manga (and had any clue how to do that in the first place, seriously where is the official manga even? Lol) then I would, but seeing as I can't, it's a pirates life for me

 

[Bartolumiu]

seriously where is the official manga even?

Here in MangaDex, you got the official links in the series description ("Read or Buy" category)
Example: TenSura (Tensei Shitara Slime Datta Ken / That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime)

Oh wow that's cool, when I actually have some money I'll support them I guess

Even if you spend money, there's no guarantee the manga won't be axed by the publisher because Japan has shit taste

I mean that's beside the point, isn't it? The main purpose is to give back to the author, whether the manga will be axed or not is sometimes out of our control, since it is usually decided by magazine's ranking.

Not entirely beside the point. The girl brought up there's no more chapter because the publisher can't pay the author due to piracy

That's not axing, that's more like bankruptcy. Usually when a manga is axed, it's becuz it doesn't do well on the magazine's popularity poll. Now with official online manga app, there might be other data that they can use. We can help with the latter (if they have an official reading site), but unless you live in Japan, you cannot really help with the former.

Is this the reason why manga goes on hiatus - because it was pirated so bad no one is paying Eiichiro Oda? Or no one is paying E-musu aki that forced him to hang himself???

The best way to sell manga is to stick into 23 chapters, like Hamita.

Lesson:

Manga IS 💩

It's as if it's more profitable to put a manga on a site with some ads and make it readable for free huh

Jokes on them, I use an ad blocker. NOBODY getting paid.
