Since the announcement, I gotten nothing but the CDN NYC screen when attempting to view pages. Seeing new releases of the manga I've been following on the main page, but not being able to actually view the pages, just hits home how much I loved new releases on Batoto. It's like an itch that can't be scratched even though I've upgraded my scratching device to a 40-grit belt sander. Batoto had become for me - over the last decade or so - a friendly habit. While I'm sad to see it pass on, I totally understand it.
Grumpy-san, I wish you awesome success in whatever you take on from this point forward. Take care.
