I click read online and nothing comes up. I see the thumbs page, but no thumbs, no ads, nothing; Fakku books are unaffected. Seems to have happened overnight. Browser I'm using is Chrome.
Edit: posted screenshot to give a better idea.
Edit 2: Here are the errors I'm seeing.
My phone is unaffected (Windows Phone, Internet Explorer), so I have no idea if its an error with the version of Chrome I've got or if its something on Fakku's end.

Hilarious ones aside, I dislike them. It just strikes me as lazy.

I'm still running Windows XP on an 11 year old Dell, complete with CRT monitor.
Does that make me a hipster?

I like both equally, if I'm being honest.

The second season will most probably still focus on Momo, Yami, Mea and Mikan, but I do hope Haruna gets more screen time too. :DI'd like to see more Risa honestly.

Well, it was published by Wani Books...soooo....maybe it has something to do with that.True, but I would think that there would be SOMETHING about it on the tubes.
Full disclosure: I did suggest that Fakku try licensing it, but I'm not naive enough to believe that it happened that fast or that it happened because of my suggestion.

I ask because Mangafox is now saying it has (and thus is unavailable for reading there), but I cannot find any evidence of it on the Google, and Mangafox has said this before.

Since Fakku has no aversion to publishing controversial content, is the plan to reinstate the relevant controversial tags as licensed material is added to the site?Also as someone that was never really involved in this community it's interesting to see people react to the removal of unlicensed scanlations from Fakku. I understand the feeling of losing a community, that sucks; however, it's not as if these scanlations, particularly parody doujinshi, or the people responsible for them are going to disappear from the internet. There's hundreds of places to get scanlations, whether it's directly from scanlators' blogs, aggregation sites similar to Fakku, or other means. Currently, you could probably count the number of places you can get physical copies of tanks, magazines, or doujinshi in english (let alone uncensored) on one hand. I think there's a lot more value to consumers of hentai in what Fakku is trying to do now than what it was doing prior to the Wani agreement.
True dat.

Okay, let me see if I have this straight: Any original doujinshi done by artists Fakku works with (and obviously original manga) are fine, but we're gonna lose the parody doujinshi (stuff for series that already exist, e.g. Bakemonogatari, Infinite Stratos, Is It Wrong to Try and Pick Up Girls In A Dungeon)?Not gonna lie, that's a downer.
It's unfortunate, but that is what will eventually happen before the end of the year.
Okay. Is that why the video and games sections (which admittedly hadn't been updated in a while) are gone?

Another question: what controversial content will be removed? I get incest and loli, but I heard that the animal/cat ears tag was also going away for a while. That's a staple of hentai, I have a hard time believing that artists would be uneasy about it.Only unlicensed content is being removed. X-Eros magazine is full of loli and incest content. If jacob was going to block the loli and incest content he would of never did hanafuda nor get x-eros to be simulcasted.
Ah, okay.

I was under the impression that doujinshi couldn't be licensed in the west because of the vastly different copyright laws, unless there's something I missed."Unlicensed" here means content where we don't have an approval from the artist or publisher to sell their works. If that is the case, it will be removed from the site.
OH. That makes sense, I guess.

It isn't outright hentai, but since we're working with WANI, might it be possible to get Koe de Oshigoto licensed?

The story is now crappy if you ask me. I'm surprised there will be a season 2 but if that will be the case, its going to a showcase of ecchi were we see Rito grope the girls by accident and it has been very consistent for all the chapters that I have read... A tiring thing, indeed.-DarkdaemonPK2
So basically the same as S1? Eh, could be worse, I guess.
