Manga Discussion Thread (Spoilers Abound)

It took a while because they were scaling your video upto 2160p lol

But seems legit. I do have a bunch of volumes downloaded on to some back up drive somewhere. Wouldn't be a bad investment. It's just "another piece of tech" to carry around

[Vaspinne]

Hah, I just got this done lol. Youtube took forever on processing just a 1minute video:

[Kobo Video]


Definitely not as responsive as a smart phone or tablet, but it's much nicer to read on as it's not a backlit LCD/LED screen. Battery life is ridiculous, already spent 15+hours reading on it so far and battery went from 100% to 94%.

Genuine question here, who does Kobo sell through in the US? I think it ~was~ Barnes and Noble before they tanked. Also, you should work at a Chapters, they would love how much you're selling it lol (I used to work at Chapters right when they first started selling the original Kobo. They made me the "expert" because I'm brown and kind of techie lol)

Like the actual physical products? Not sure, I know in Canada they're mainly in their parent stores like Chapters and Indigo but also at retailers like Staples, Bestbuy etc...

I have been watching as the chapters for Hajime no Ippo keep piling up, but never started it. It must be good as it's been running for so long... 1000+ chapters is a lot of reading to do.

[Vaspinne]

The fights are generally pretty good, albeit there was a stretch where a few Ippo fights are kind of meh. But the general plot and the tom-foolery between fights amongst the characters is what really helps it be awesome (combined with the good fights of course). Also, anything involving Takamura is fantastic.

If anything, you should try watching the animes (in order) first. They'll help you get pretty well caught up with the manga, and they do a fantastic job of translating the work from paper to motion.

Some samples:

Inari, Konkon, Koi Iroha chapter 40


Finally they admit they love each other. Love her reaction after the confession.

Omg the feels.

>Using mangahere instead of casanova scans themselves.

I am disappoint.

[Skai]

I mainly use mangahere for the subscribe feature where they send me an email when a new chapter is up. Does casanova have that though?

I think the big difference is that mangahere is like a database where all mangas, regardless of who scanlated them, are uploaded for all to read. Where as Casanova is a site that specifically scanlates a handful of series, like mangastream. So Deadgye's point is that reading it on casanova supports the original scanlator (Just giving credit to them for the effort they put in scanlating a series which more often then not is done purely out of personal desire and doesn't have any monetary payment to the people who do the work), where as mangahere doesn't really give any credit to the original scanlators at all.

Boom. Now you are using a manga reader scanlators like and upload to.

Yeah I understand that. I use it purely for selfish convenience.

Niiiiiiiiiiiiiice...

[Deadgye]

Casanova is the one scantlating and uploading them, so it just makes sense to me to read it from them. Not to mention they have it available first. It's like watching gundam guild fighters on the official gundam youtube channel instead of downloading horriblesubs, or something, idk.

Also I should have waited a week before catching up. Why did you trick me into having to wait at the edge of my seat for the next chapter. Although.. Alice in that black night gown with the lab coat over it in 62, the panty shot in 63, Alice's face with her tongue out in 64, the director actually stripping and being outrageous instead of it being an imaginary thing. I fucking love this manga. There will never be a better cooking manga ever. It'd have to be a dual-existence manga that simultaneously exists separately as a manga and as a hentai to even challenge it.

[Vaspinne]

Yeah I understand that. I use it purely for selfish convenience.

So do I, lol.

[Tarage]

If you are using something else and it's on Batoto, use Batoto. It has all the features that the other sites have, but they treat scan groups properly, and the majority of groups support Batoto.

There is no excuse.

[Vandalhart]

Is there a way to set my Follow list on Batoto to only show English uploads?

[Tokitoki]

Im not sure about the follow feature, but on the main page, the upper right side, you can change the language settings to only show English.

[Vandalhart]

That did the trick, thanks.
