Another week in the books. Let’s chat about manga in the general discussion thread! Feel free to use this thread for questions, comments, recommendations, etc.
Like normal, please be careful with spoilers. I wrote a guide about spoilers in case you need a refresher on how to handle them (also linked in the sidebar).
I come here today seeking help.
Give me $50 and I’ll pay you back double in a week, no joke.Does anyone know some trustworthy alternatives to Mangadex? It’s my main source for the stuff I read but some of the series I follow and post here aren’t updated there anymore. I’ve been using Chapmanganato but it looks like the site died and now I’m in a bind.
I’m looking for an alternative that will be safe to post here as I don’t want to unknowingly risk anyone’s devices (not everyone uses ad block plugins or hardened browsers after all).
some trustworthy alternatives to Mangadex
Not really, no… I have two sources that I turn to in last resort when Mangadex doesn’t have something and I can’t get it legally. First is Weeb Central (formerly known as Manga See). They have a mihon extension that works to sidestep ads, so I don’t even know how offensive their web ui might be. They do host direct scans of official releases though, so I would prefer not to have posts that link directly to them if possible. If you find a series on there that is being scanlated, then just link the scanlator’s site directly if possible (cancerous ads and all, just give a warning).
The other source of last resort would be bato. I tend to avoid bato these days because its mihon extension was broken for a long time and I migrated away from it (not sure if it works now or not). However, I do see several series that I read where the credits page says that the SL group uploads both to mangadex and bato. So, it might be worth a try.
I use Comick as my source for 99% of things on mihon. They typically have official or the best quality scans i’ve found. No idea if it’s trustworthy or what that means but it works for me

They had a domain change, and on the main site they wrote to select a different mirror. Guess this happened to you around one or two months ago?
