So there is a chance it will continue to work as long as the buyer wants it to, i just hope is not someone like say the owners of mangafox who buy it xD
the domain is like the least important thing in making a successor site (and there are a few attempts at that going on atm). if you haven't noticed, batoto itself went through a few domain changes in the past.

Well, the site might "work", but don't be surprised if you see a shoe store or something the next time you visit.
They're buying just the box (Bato.to), not what's inside of it (all the manga, forums, comments, databases, etc).
Either way, I suggest to visit the site with caution after the deadline - you never know what kind of people end up buying it.

Just wanted to say your site has been an invaluable resource. Thank you for running it all this time and I'm sorry that it became such a burden. And thank you for the export feature.

Wow, I'm truly super sad to see this happen, I just found out about here and subscribed last september and it already became my single place to read manga. Super sad...
But I understand your reasons, life is a cycle and you move on to the next part of it, so I wish you the best of luck!

I didn't read very much here or participate in the community much, but it was nice having a website where I could regularly find updates on manga without worrying about ads. The comment section in the main manga pages were also nice for a laugh here and there.
Thanks for all the work you've done to make this site, Grumpy & Co.! Wasn't here for very long, but my stay was a pleasant one.

Thanks for all your hard work. It's been a good few years. I've never posted much, but Batoto has always been the place to go for manga.
It's a shame to see it go. Never has there been a better manga site, and there may not be a better one ever. But, get some rest admin, you've earned it.
お疲れ様でした
