One Manga and other scanlation sights being shut down

Talk about specific anime other than FLCL. What's Gainax up to lately?

pandamaru said it multiple times.

if you're using a browser that doesn't have spellcheck, it's time to use a different browser.

im not trying to be mean or anything, just saying.

Wow thats incredibly sad.I didnt know until just now. Iv read dozens of mangas online on that specific site.

Well i could see where the publishers are coming from trying to make more money from their works,but sites like these are keeping manga alive for many american audiance's. Like it was said before, it's usually years at a time before new volumes of any manga are released translated in america.I think the publishers should atleast release stuff like this faster,or make a deal with the site to sell them the raws for cheap and then they translate so everybodys happy.

personally, i don't really like reading things like books or wordy comics online. i get antsy, if im at my computer, i HAVE to be doing something with my hands. if im not typing or playing a game, im touching myself, and i do that waaaay too often as it is. :(

Get a second computer and multi-task.

It helps if you stop being a lazy fucker and get a job.

Or you can try and break the habit. Besides, what happens when you are watching a movie?

Anyway,does anyone know any sites that still show manga?

there are still tons of manga sites out there. i recently read berserk online.

the problem is the horrible translations done by people that try to put cutesy humor into a serious part of the story.

not even in the dialogue either, they'll add smiley faces in the borders and shit.

Okay, that is just terrible. I mean, if you are going to be doing scanlations, at least be professional about it.

I buy books. I have a large library already.

But the few mangas I have read are fucking expensive.

yeah depending on the host sometimes its really tough to follow along. Some chapters are just utter nonsense, but I find the majority of it is comprehensible.
