I wasn't expecting any better, but it's still quite sad to see what has come from buying the bato.to domain

One of the mangapanda-like network of reader sites.

 

I hope Grumpy sold it for a fortune, at least.

 

BTW, while I'm here, I wish you guys well in the future, wherever you land to, no matter what reader site you end up picking

When I was watching the auction the last I saw was around $4,900.  It's going around that it went for around $5,100 USD.  Not bad.  Not great, when you consider how much the new owners might make off it.

I've already fielded one statement in discord about 'bato is back up' making it sound like its Grumpy back...

Good luck in the future Grumpy with whatever you decide to do.  For now, relax and spend many nights out drinking it up with friends and family!

That was a pretty helpful explanation there. I was also curious about where S2Scans and LetitGo originated from.

Let it Go actually originated from FTH.  When they disbanded some/most moved forward under the new name.

Over time some from japanzai joined as well, so its a true mishmash in a way.

if i remember correctly, S2Scans is like the new name for Japanzai?? Forgot why. probably new members or new views?

anyways, you can try asking them to see if they have a backup of their old group works.

 

for series that they continued to work on after the name change, I think it might still be on their reader or dl links, but not sure about older works...

When Japanzai closed up, the people still wanting to work split off into different groups, who also took on a number of their projects.

LetitGo Scans took on a number including Youkai Shoujo, and Hare kon etc and is finishing up GxC.

Fallen Syndicate I believe worked on a couple as well.

One or two were finished by single members who didn't want to go anywhere.
