There's still mangadex

I’m genuinely heartbroken over this.
Yes, I know, it seems a bit off bemoaning the impending closure of what was essentially a huge pirating website for manga, but what can I say? This website and its app were pretty much the reason I got back into anime after nearly a decade after giving up on it.
I more or less saw this coming and at the very least, we can all be thankful that we were given prior warning to the site shutting down so we might have time to archive and record the contents of our libraries.
I’ll tell you who I feel really bad for right now; the manga artist who blew the whistle on MangaRock for posting their webcomic without permission. While she’s technically in the right, It won’t change the fact that there’s going to be a lot of angry MangaRock users who blame them for the site getting shut down.
Remember Metallica?
Christopher Brown
Why people keep reading manga on that shitty site?
Gavin Morales
>shit online reader shuts down
Oh it's not like there are other 20 fucking other readers
Alexander Jackson
bump.
I would have never got into manga and read masterpieces like 20th century boys, a drifting life,kaiji etc without this app. Instead I would have only watched shitty seasonal anime. I'm very sorry too see manga rock go . We've had a wonderful four years. Thank you for your services.
Bentley Williams
there's still that one good manga website up check this out
Nathan Harris
I caren't really about the "piracy"; these are scanlations with no official English release.
Maybe the scanlators could work out a deal with the original publication and actually publish them cheaply or something which would probably benefit all parties involved but ere that time come I have no moral qualms with pirating something that has no official commercial release.
Eli Carter
This one had one of the nicest interfaces for me on mobile, on a tablet with its perpetual scroll interface automatically adjusting the size of the image to fill the tablet width.
Christopher Gonzalez
what's the fuss here? Why do you say it's gone, it's up and running you know
Henry Thomas
mangarock.com
?? Still work.
Kevin Price
they could have a manga reader with official western releases banned but people aren't coming to pirate sites to read literally who manga that nobody bothered to license
Oliver Peterson
MangaFags where mods are retarded and comments are autistic
Andrew Brown
Now what Tachiyomi extention to use?
Eli Howard
Damn shame, mr was the only online reader that had Kaiji complete in order.
Xavier Nelson
just iOS app i think so only NA fags are sad about this
Angel Johnson
I buy physical copies
Fuck off, manga is pretty much the last physical copy focused form of media, let it stay physical copy focused
Let me guess, you pay for "steam games"
Andrew Cox
Manga rock is dying? What happened?
Nolan Morales
could you fucks verify what the fuck you talk about?
The website is still on you cunts
Brayden Lee
Its shutting down, got some time yet.
Jayden Edwards
when?
Jonathan Rivera
I'm really enjoying their app on my phone. Is even that going to die sometime in the future? Or is it just their site.
Adrian Wilson
>paying for scans
glad they died
Parker Gonzalez
Dunno, no specific time mentioned, just "soon"
Tyler Scott
Some groups don't post there, and they don't have licensed stuff either. If two or more groups post in the same language, the list will have a ton of duplicates on Tachiyomi too.
Kevin Nelson
just make an account and disable all languages other than english
Eli Morgan
wait does that mean their stuff wont work on tachiyomi any more? like 80% of my saved stuff is from them fuck
Christopher Ross
What extensions do you use?
Zachary Cook
>reading comments
Jordan Stewart
Get a better taste
Jason Diaz
>pirated the premium version because mangadex is shit on tachiyomi
Guess I'll just go back to the epic 403 forbidden please understand service
William Howard
You can disable other languages, but can't disable other groups that most the same language. Look at 5Toubun, for example. Both Dropout and Yea Forumsnons are uploading to MangaDex.
Thinking about MangaDex, Manganelo, Mangasee, Mangaeden... I will probably need at least two
Cooper Cook
>Not only is it a phonefag but an iToddler one at that
Easton Cox
This I would also like to know.
Luke Gutierrez
Canadian here the website is still up.
Dominic Sullivan
>mobile scum
and nothing of value was lost
Adrian Jones
if so, why people still upload there, if it's dying?
and more importantly, how can i scrape my favs from it?
James Ross
iToddlers BTFO
Lincoln Murphy
It was a sudden announcement, and I keep my MAL updated so its just a case of spending an hour migrating to another source in tachiyomi.
Benjamin Robinson
>MangaFags where mods are retarded and comments are autistic
Welcome to Yea Forums, oh you were talking about MD.
Thomas Lewis
Why do you need an "app" when reading on the site itself works just fine? Mangadex for example
Xavier Collins
Same. Hopefully they just shut it down in specific territories like JPN and US.
Nolan Russell
This, only retards care about this shit site going under when there's still many options left and one with no ads at all.
Colton Gutierrez
iPad is the only premium way to read stolen manga since 2010.
Jonathan Smith
If MangaRock goes down I hope uploaders will start putting shit on Goddess more often. Updates seem to lag and most of the new shit sits in unsorted updates for weeks
Brayden Gomez
Euro here, app is still working, is this just American thing?
Adrian Lee
Nips on twitter banded together to shut down Manga rock once they realized it wasn't a licensed platform but a pirate manga aggregator.
I saw this shit unfold on twitter the past 2 weeks
Grayson Richardson
Seems like it. Probably to avoid prosecution from American localization firms. If that is the case so be it, because they didn't have access to the (stolen) localized official rips anyways which is like the main selling point of MangaRock.
Justin Wright
Who the fuck doesn't use an adblocker
Lucas Torres
A fucking load of retards, hence why all sites still runs ads, especially when they browse the site using phones.
Josiah Richardson
Why not? The only reason it's not my go to is because I like having all my shit in one place and faggot scanlators want to keep all their ad shekels on their own sites
Andrew Fisher
Just happened to download the app last week, still have my premo membership. Hopefully a VPN will be all I need if this turns out to only affect Nip Land and Freedom Town.
Jonathan Edwards
Because it has full scans of *official/licensed* english tankobon releases and up to date official weekly licensed releases. Most aggregators just deal with unofficial scanlations and remove shit that's licensed.
Sebastian Evans
Nah I opened the app and it still works for me.
Adam Lee
You can try and go back to college to learn Japanese. That way you can just buy the manga that hasn't been translated.
