Thank you so much for your service over the years. I think we all understand and appreciate the struggles of what you have created. I am sure it will be sorely missed, IMO, as its one of the best, cleanest sites for the world manga reading community.

I design and build websites so I have some idea of how much work went into building and maintaining this.
Please know that you made a lot of people, including myself, really happy for such a well thought-out and run resource and community.
Best wishes on your next endeavors!

I only just recently started using the site but I really liked a lot of things about it specifically the simple yet elegant style. Like it doesn't have lots of unnecessary flash elements and such, pretty utilitarian for a site nowadays. This may sound like a bad thing to some, but I really love it!
So anyway, I may not have been here for years like other people but I greatly enjoyed my time here. Here's hoping someone else picks up the pieces with those backups.

I guess I'll say my final goodbyes, as well. I've been a member since Nov. 11th 2012. However, I'm pretty sure I've been around since the beginning since I remember "yester-year" when there was no login accounts required.
I've definitely always had a soft spot for batoto because of the sleek environment and quality content. Not to mention this is the only site that published all scans (not just the one's in english). I'm really going to miss Batoto when it's gone, but I understand that this is a pretty big site and that it is very taxing on you to keep it up and running.
Though I am saddened by the end of Batoto, I wish you luck on your future endeavors and I thank you kindly for all your efforts up until this point. You are greatly appreciated and well received by all who have interacted on this site.
Best Regards,
One sad, but content panda.

Posting here to ask if anyone has come up with a "continuation" site.

how is it killing hope?-? people should hope for new readers to pop up and have similar ideology and/or expand on babobo's features instead of clinging to a name and getting disappointed. name/logo/brand guarantees nothing.
It was a joke......and i am sure something similar will pop up, i just hope it receives enough publicity so we find it fast, for example i didn't know about batoto until a friend told me, otherwise i would still be using mangafox and suffering the crazy adds.
