Manga Library Z announced it is going to bring to an end its online operations on November 26, 2024; the website reported. The company said they were having issues with credit card companies, so it decided to cease its entire online business. They have been providing old and often rare manga series, with some that might have also gone out of print.
Some manga series in the Manga Library Z collection are so old they only survive in digital form. Their culmination will mark the end of a 14-year-long journey. Apart from serving as a rich source of rare and out-of-print manga series, Manga Library Z also provided livelihood to the original artists by providing them with a share of the ad revenue.
However, with credit card companies cutting off ties, the company said sustaining operations and remaining profitable proved extremely difficult. Hence, the decision to go offline. However, it said the move could be temporary, as the company stated it would continue to explore ways to come back.
The options being considered include going non-profit or opting for crowdfunding its operations. Manga Library Z was launched by Ken Akamatsu, the creator of the rare manga series . That was back in 2010.
The company was then referred to as J-Comi. Meanwhile, Ken Akamatsu too has gravitated towards politics. With a keen interest in tech, I make it a point to keep myself updated on the latest developments in technology and gadgets.
That includes smartphones or tablet devices but stretches to even AI and self-driven automobiles, the latter being my latest fad. Besides writing, I like watching videos, reading, listening to music, or experimenting with different recipes. The motion picture is another aspect that interests me a lot, and I'll likely make a film sometime in the future.
