CONGRATS!

When I first found you about a decade ago, you kept my budding interest in manga alive. Back then there were so many manga, and their titles were so often given in Japanese only, that I wouldn't have been able to find anything good in the vast number of them without you!

Still true after all these years.

Congrats!!! And happy 15th birthday MangaUpdates!!!

I have only been a member for like two months, but MangaUpdates has long been a great part of my search for great mangas :>

Hoping for everyone's continued hardwork and support! Let's continue to spread the love for mangas all over the world 😉

Lots of love! :>

Late to the party - but wow can't believe this site has been running for 15 years. Hopefully many more to go!

Here is how the site looked in Dezember 2005:

It´s like looking at a mirror.

I also read EU/US comics and am a librarian.

Lol. It is, indeed.

Yes, you're worthy!

Some websites just work and don't need big, fancy updates 😛

The biggest difference between then and now (outside of the recent re-coding of the site) are the introduction categories and the removal of links to scanlation sites. Thank Zodd for that user script. The MU app is worthy of mentioning too... unless no one uses it but I never tried it due to not having a smartphone. Maybe next decade.

Now that we are talking about improvements. Is it possible to make the cover preview script an official part of the site? It´s really shiny and chrome and makes the site come alive. There is enough real estate on the right sidebar for links to user scripts (that aren´t about piracy).

Thank you guys for being there for us all these years 😀

What? It's been fifteen years?! Well I can't quite complain since I only joined five years ago, so that 10 years was already large difference to me already. But wow, time goes by really fast without you knowing. And I'm surprised this site is still booming with activity unlike other sites that can't even last longer than 10 years, its a shock that they were able to make it through but it just dies down afterwards. This site is amazing and have nice users that help you when you're in need of help. The staff is great too, well some I haven't seen in awhile but, yeah 15 years, my god. I wish everyone a wonderful start of MU's anniversary. 😀

Oh I didn't participate for the deadline, I'm just posting because I want to wish the group a wonderful anniversary ^^
