Online manga to end?

[Demon_Skeith]

In early June a coalition of Japanese and U.S. manga publishers announced it would take legal action against 30 sites that illegally post translated scans of their titles if the administrators didn't "immediately cease their activities." Within days, MangaHelpers began shutting down (while launching a platform for creators) and MangaFox started pulling licensed titles from its list. However, the closing of One Manga gives the coalition its biggest victory, by far, to date.

In the wake of the One Manga announcement, administrators set up a Facebook page, which already has almost 53,000 "Likes."

Not MangaFox! That was my other alternative... Why are they doing this now? In the midst of epic Naruto and Bleach! FOO!

manga fox sucked, but besides that I don't think all sites will go down.

I thought it was pretty good... but I think they will all be gone by the end of the year.

It's annoying. Manga is very expensive when there are series with large amounts of volumes out. I've still got to finish my Rurouni Kenshin collection.
