Well I can understand what you guys are saying but for those like me, who lived in Japan for 9 several years and had to move to another country with no other way to read manga but this, it's a negative

I agree with everything MMM has said - none of which was off topic.
The site was shut down because it is illegal. We do not support illegal activities here on JF.
I wasn`t familiar with the site, had never heard of it before this post, but have to say that it sounds like a pretty good thing that it`s being shut down. It`s illegal. It`s piracy.


If anyone is trying to find me… Tamyuun on Instagram is probably the easiest.

It was also one of Google's top 1000 visited sites on the Internet. It being taken down is a major victory for people going after pirates. The scanlators who had their scans posted there are nervous about just "going to the next site" as chances are that will eventually be taken down.

And I want to give the warning again:

Do not post links to any scan hosting sites here.

It doesn't matter if they are translated or RAWS.

Moot, if you are Japanese and live in Australia, you must have friends and family in Japan who can send you books.

Seems like MMM is happy.

Do you have any relatives/friends working for the manga/comics industry?


Too many people spend money they haven't earned, to buy things they don't want, to impress people they don't like.

Are you asking me? It's no secret that I do.
