Important Notice

First of all, I'd like to thank you all for being part of the Comick community and for supporting this project over the years. After much thought, I’ve made the difficult decision to bring this site to a close.

Although the site is no longer online, I want to reassure you that your personal manga/comic lists remain safe. I am currently preparing a dedicated page where you’ll be able to access and export your lists. Once it’s ready, I’ll share the link here.

I am deeply grateful to everyone who visited, contributed, and shared in this journey with me. Running this platform has been an incredible experience, and I truly appreciate the time you’ve spent here.

Thank you again for your support and understanding.

That site is actually relatively notable among Adian comic readers, as it also provide manga, manhua, manhwa, Indonesian comics, Thai comcis, and more stuff.

Most of their content are aggregated from Mangadex. It also accept user submission. Some scanlation use the site after Mangadex's Kakao webtoon DMCA and 1000+ of manga DMCA.

Can't you just grab what you want from nyaa.si?

[–] pat277@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 days ago

I looked into it yesterday, I couldnt find a single one I was looking for. :/ real sad because I had alot of cases of "only on mangadex (prenuke) and comick". Its not looking too bright

0 interest of self hosting something to grab new release torrents so I can read on my smartphone.

Is there a service that helps with finding updates on there? Or do we have to manually check it periodically?

[–] Dhs92@piefed.social 3 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

There's no *arr for manga specifically. The closest we have is what's listed in this r*ddit post: https://old.reddit.com/r/selfhosted/comments/1gn5r26/is_there_a_arr_solution_for_manga/

The site was high quality

[–] themachinestops@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 4 days ago

It was truly impressive.

[–] SharkAttak@kbin.melroy.org 14 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Not a word on the why?

[–] goferking0@lemmy.sdf.org 12 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Sounds like/guess is dcma from kako

[–] mnemonicmonkeys@sh.itjust.works 14 points 4 days ago

Kakao can eat a giant bag of dicks

[–] clay_pidgin@sh.itjust.works 3 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Is that a Japanese org like RIAA or MPAA?

[–] goferking0@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Korean anti piracy org.

[–] Dhs92@piefed.social 7 points 4 days ago (2 children)

They're a publisher (Manga, Manhwa, games, etc) in Korea that formed an anti-piracy coalition with a bunch of Asian publishers

[–] SharkAttak@kbin.melroy.org 1 points 3 days ago

Maybe they could also improve quality, while they're at it. I'm not hating, I also read manhwas, but a lot of them are... yeesh.

[–] goferking0@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Do they publish anything though? Only seen them used to do take downs or scare messages

[–] noahimesaka1873@lemmy.funami.tech 3 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Quite a lot. Those DMCAed titles from Kakao are all from them (originally published on their platform in Korea) so yeah they're quite big. And they do all sorts of other biz like KakaoTalk (de facto messaging service in Korea) and even a fucking bank.

[–] raman_klogius@ani.social 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

A comics company cornering the instant messaging space of all things is surprising.
The reverse situation would be like WhatsApp being a comic publishing company.

[–] noahimesaka1873@lemmy.funami.tech 1 points 3 days ago

Your "reverse situation" is exactly what happened to Kakao. Started as small messenger, expanding into other businesses as such.

[–] clay_pidgin@sh.itjust.works 3 points 4 days ago

Makes sense.

[–] Hawk@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Anyone know a good replacement source? Been readings tons from them, not sure where to migrate my stuff to in Yokai

[–] Tippy@sh.itjust.works 5 points 4 days ago

I don't keep up with the bleeding edge of sources, but Weeb Central is decent in my experience. It was my backup for anything Comick didn't have.

You may have to manually search some titles during the migration process, as the naming schemes between the sites aren't identical and will miss some that they do actually have
