### 3/5 — It’s ok

*2026-08-26, version 1.3.9*

It’s ok but there is no demon slayer!

### 2/5 — Buys Premium - Still get ads

*2026-08-21, version 1.3.9*

Still getting ads under the manga’s description even though I’ve purchased premium.

### 3/5 — Pages not loading

*2026-08-18, version 1.3.8*

So I know pages not loading cuz of an update but I’m starting to not enjoy reading on this app

### 4/5 — Great app just needs some tweaks

*2026-08-16, version 1.3.8*

The app does what it needs to do. The issues are image loading, mix material, too many version of the same material under more than one name. Other than that the app overlay  is decent. I think the app icon should be a darker blue or a dark purple. Change the name of the app to mk. Update whatever ui system your using for the base of the app. Make it more fluid. I’m not a tech guy. Just a consumer.

### 3/5 — Manga not loading

*2026-08-12, version 1.3.8*

App was working really well but now  my manga won’t load or some of the pages won’t load

### 3/5 — No pics

*2026-08-11, version 1.3.8*

The last few days of reading some of the pages are just a x in stead of the page itself plus a lot of the manga have had no pictures of the manga it self name only can the admins fix this , Again .

### 2/5 — Glitchy as hell

*2026-08-10, version 1.3.8*

Over all pretty good but I keep getting pages full of “X” and they stay blank very glitchy and annoying when you’re getting into the story…

### 1/5 — Please fix

*2026-08-09, version 1.3.8*

Every time I try to read a manga the images won’t load it was working great before this

### 3/5 — Missing mangas

*2026-08-09, version 1.3.8*

It’s an amazing app but I stopped using it for 2-4 months then downloaded it back since then I haven’t been seen a lot of bl manga like popular ones anymore

### 2/5 — Loading Error Again

*2026-08-08, version 1.3.8*

The app, when it works, works great and I like being able to read so much in one place. But it feels like every 3-4 updates cause a really big issue and usually results in the app being unusable for a while. It is currently only loading about 5% of a chapter, at which point, u have to close the app, clear the cache, and then it loads a couple more pages. Hope it gets fixed soon.

### 1/5 — Useless since last update

*2026-08-05, version 1.3.8*

Nothing works since last update - just a title image - zero chapters

### 1/5 — A lots of missing pages

*2026-08-04, version 1.3.8*

It has so many missing pages, I find no value in using this anymore. Sad!

Edit: I thought it was missing pages but it turned to be failing to load some pages constantly. Please just add a simple retry logic.

### 2/5 — Chapters won’t load

*2026-08-03, version 1.3.8*

The chapters just show X’s for the pages and I have to switch between reading modes over and over to try to refresh and load the pages in slowly.

### 3/5 — Why does it have a jingle

*2026-07-30, version 1.3.8*

I don’t know if it’s a thing with everyone, but the moment you open the app it starts looping an annoying jingle unless you remember to turn off your volume or until you start reading something. Also, it doesn’t seem to be able to load as well as it used to. Sometimes you’ll have to make the app refresh the pages a few times for them to all load properly.

### 2/5 — Genre

*2026-07-29, version 1.3.8*

They used to be yuri and yaoi it’s not their no more and even mature it’s all gone ..well the others work fine but I missed the other genre

### 2/5 — Fix ur app

### 1/5 — Recent Issue

*2026-08-20, version 1.3.8*

I can see the new chapters being uploaded but nothing loads. In the few moments it does load it’s only a few pages that are viewable. The rest either fail to load or it’s blurry. 

Please fix this soon
