    You need a Google, Apple or Facebook account to sign up for Manta. Even if you want to pay, it’ll cost you more than money.

    As someone with a bookshelf dedicated to manga, there isn’t a universe where I pay for seeing manga digitally.

    Sell me physical stuff, then it’s a fair deal.

      I think that’s more because they work themselves to death, not because they’re not allowed to pirate manhwa.
