I use Kissmanga when batoto doesn't have something for whatever reason so I guess that for now?

Does Kissmanga have as many viruses in it like I've heard Kissanime does?

Kissmanga uses bots to take stuff from batoto though, people can’t upload to it

Never been to kissanime so can't compare but I haven't had any problems with km, although I've got the adblocker so maybe that's helping

Ah, well. At least they'll have the old stuff until a proper replacement comes along

Kissmanga is a solid site,, I’ve used it for years since they upload at native res with full chapter view option. I hate clicking through pages on stuff like batoto. At that point I’d rather just download the manga and use Quivi

It's also dangerous these days. Advertisers have been harvesting people's login details (they say they're only after usernames, but loving lol, literally anyone can buy ads), because so many people have auto-fill forms with remembered passwords enabled, and there's exploits that'll allow you to steal them from displayed ads.

I use mangago (but make an account and only visit with an adblocker it's got pretty awful ads otherwise)

People can upload directly to it because a lot of BL translator groups use it for that purpose plus it has more or less the same content as batoto, probably scraped directly from them or other aggregator sites :v:

As far as TBBT, I can tell you that, to this day, is the one show I cannot fathom how my mom still enjoys taking into account that she seems to be the furthest from the demographic

OK, that's the best thing I've seen today and you're awesome for bringing it up. :rock:

Doing my 2 or 3 year check to see if anything else on the level of Lovely Complex for a romcom has come out in anime. I just want another from the girl's point of view and she's at least somewhat confident and not just a giant timid ball. Anything?

Be wary, brave watcher, for if you wander into the Host Club without caution, you may find that Ouran will finish you.

Phones still can't adblock.

Which is loving poo poo because there a lot of legitimate sites that run ads that force open a Play Store popup, and even some good old fashioned "ur deviece has a viruz clik hear 2 scan" popups recently.

If you are a nerd you could set up Pi-hole to block poo poo at DNS level.

Not from the girl's pov, but Oremonogatari (My Love Story) is very good and sweet.
