Japanese publishers' idea of fighting against manga piracy: kill all legal options and launch their own website that is only available in USA (kmanga).

Gee, I wonder why that didn't work!

For real, I'd pay for anime, manga, hentai, manhwan, western comics, etc. if there was just one site or a group of sites that:

required just one account and/or one subscription for all of them
was available worldwide with no restrictions
was fast
let me pay in any currency
translated everything in different languages

Fuck yeah I'd pay for that. Sign me the fuck up for that awesome legal option.

Instead we have whatever the fuck is going on right now. Fan-subs and fan-translations are mandatory because their shit isn't translated either ever or not in time. I want to give you my money for what I want and so that you make more awesome shit, but you fucking won't let me.

The ships have to sail 🤷

Crucially: let me have the damn files.

Why would I pay to use your awful webreader or streaming client when reader apps with good UI and quality video players exist.
