I heard the news and it's hard for me to part ways.
After a year had passed, since it was created, did I officially join as a member. It was the ideal site for hq scans from growing scanlation groups to the logistics and simple format that made it easy for a non-tech wiz like me to understand nearly everything. The people are amazing, really, they'll entertain you.
I hope this won't be the last that we see any of you who silently lurked in the forums, those semi-active members that only look at postings or someone like me who appeared ever so often to only say one word--you will be missed.
Thank you for making this a place that I often found myself welcomed.

Man, I still haven't fully recovered from losing OneManga all those years ago, and now Batoto follows suit? Another bitter pill to swallow.

Oh my God! Where else am I going to be able to post my idiotic and socially unacceptable comments about the latest chapter releases!? Who else would be willing to put up with this senile old pervert's warped and twisted sense of humor the way that Batoto has for the past seven years!?

Hopefully there will be a true successor site to fill the void. Will miss this place.
Places like Crunchyroll are becoming a more reliable source for legal online publishing these days, but there's still a long way to go. There's still a role for scanslation,
to bring across relatively unknown and/or self-published series. Batoto has been THE reliable and scanslator-friendly reader site. You'll be dearly missed by the lot of us
who read here.
For many series, Mangaupdates -> Scanslator's website may work. But for many others, it'll take digging through /a/ or reddit or other nebulous places, if there's a traceable
source at all. There will be a large, Batoto-shaped hole in the world of scanslations. Thank you for so many great years, and farewell.
