I find it great with the advanced search option but there's one very important thing missing: The manga title search field.

Let's say I am looking for a title where I only remember part of the name: monkey (fictional name)

After writing and pressing on go I can choose if I want it as title, mangaka, scanlator etc. Great enough and there's even a link to advanced search. The problem starts from this point when you've clicked into the advanced search option.

You get a page where you can go in more details. YaY but not so YaY in the end since the search you did on "monkey" has now been nullified and the search you do now is on the whole database.

I would like the advanced search to be linked to the "monkey" search from before.

Another thing to add in the advanced search should be "Year." So the user can write in the year if it's important to limit it. Well I dunno if it should be added to normal search or advanced but having it sounds good.

Does this sound....legal or am I talking about something that makes the system much more complex instead of making it easier to find the title they are looking for?

Thanks for your time and for the work you always do.

You can order searches by "Title" or "Year" by clicking the corresponding field above the search results.

This doesn't help you find things if you only know one word in the middle of the title though, I suppose.

Yes, I know since I use it often. Still, going through that many pages and then finding out you wrote it wrong so you have to start again...not fun. T.T

What I'm asking for is a more concentrated search on the title, as you probably noticed.^^
