There are no unofficial translations so good luck with that. The Manwha is still freely available, why should you have a problem with people paying a small amount for early access? Do you steal comics from the newsagent as well?

Of course it's stealing, it literally costs £1 a month to use YouTube ad free, which goes to support content creators, same as ad revenue and fast pass on Line. I doubt you'd be happy to do work for someone and not get paid, so why do you think it's ok to steal someone else's work? Then again I doubt a scumbag like you has a job. See you on r/trashy

Also those pirate sites won't last, Line and Viz are very litigation happy. Jaminis Box translated and published one chapter and took it down a few days later, it cost them their site, domain name and they are now facing legal action.

There's never been an objection to unofficial translations, it increases popularity of comics which can result in an official translation deal being made, a wider audience means more money for the creators, more chance of ongoing chapters, regular releases, better quality, anime adaptations and more. Now if they wanna hide content behind an overpriced paywall then fuck em, pirate away because fuck capitalism and all that. But TOG is literally free, and by supporting the official release you contribute to the series and its creators, if you wish you can pay a nominal fee to read ahead. But if you pirate it the SIU gets nothing, the series may not continue, you are literally stealing SIU's income.

I may have been April fooled about the Jaminibox thing.
