It's been some beautiful years with the site, it is sad to watch it die a slowly death, like a friend in ICU having his body failing slowly until he's gone. just a couple of days more... but.. So long and good bye my dear friend TT-TT
Sad indeed. The follow function and the website design is fantastic. Will be hard to get a manga site as good as that. Thankfully Mangadex is here to fill up that void. Most of the scanlators already move on to that site.
Castle Batoto may fallen however we can regroup and defend the city of Pururin (not under attack) otherwise Batoto would have fallen for nothing!

Owner/Creator wants an actual life. He/She/It couldn't hang out and do stuff in case Batoto ever needed emergency maintenance.
Rather than the admin being the boss, the site is his boss. He got to be aware 24/7/365.25 in case anything happen to the site and it basically consumes his life. He's doing this to regain control of his life, and it is understandable. There might be other ways rather than closing the site, but I'm sure he already had a lot of talks with his mods and otehr people before finalising that decision. I respect his decision.
