    Please no.
    It enough for the batoto creator to be so stressed out that he quits.
    I dont want NU's @Tony to be the same way with that added burden on top of everything else he has to do already to maintain NU.
    My reading list and bookmarks is heavily dependant on NU, so it will screw me over if NU were supposed to blew up..

    You might as well get a job and learn Japanese so you can buy raws and read them

    You do realise translations of unlicensed novels are just as illegal?

    Even disregarding the fact that hosting manga would be outside of the websites "scope", hosting large images like that takes a ton of bandwidth and disk space, orders of magnitude greater than what NU currently makes use of.

    1)More like Mangaupdates needs to remove novel updates and redo it look... It is mess, the way it is now!!!!
    2) Translation group should name the website same as there Group!! No abbreviations, make it hard to find them for Mangaupdates listed name!

    Also reason why MU lacks links>>> https://www.mangaupdates.com/showtopic.php?tid=44023

    P.S: Always Research first!

    Bato.to has maybe 50 updates from the last day. Usually, it probably gets more. I don't want to scroll through pages of manga updates to reach my novels. Not to mention there'll be so many useless links when I'm on my phone. I don't see any novels I must download to read, but I always see download-to-read mangas.

    Hopefully someone will step up since Batoto is shutting down but it won't be me. I'm curious which sites will pop up in the upcoming months. The manga community needs something!

    NU: novel updates
    From the web name we can see the purpose of this site.
    And it won't change into wibu updates

    Yup, you are drunk
