Today is a sad day indeed. I know I've been busy with school and not on often but I do stop long enough to read the new mangas as they come out.
Today sadly the publishers have changed their stance on scans of mangas likely stating copyright infringment. This comes as a heavy blow to many online sites, one of which being my favorite that I often frequented to read not just Naruto:Shippuden but also many others.
Being that it was thrusday my weekly habit of checking OneManga just began for new posts. Sadly I was greeted by startling and saddening popup on the site with the following...
Sadly another awesome site sees its end. No this is not a prank sadly and by all means check for yourself.

It pains me to announce that this is the last week of manga reading on One Manga (!!). Manga publishers have recently changed their stance on manga scanlations and made it clear that they no longer approve of it. We have decided to abide by their wishes, and remove all manga content (regardless of licensing status) from the site. The removal of content will happen gradually (so you can at least finish some of the outstanding reading you have), but we expect all content to be gone by early next week (RIP OM July '10).
So what next? We're not really sure at this point, but we have some ideas we would like to try out. Until then, the One Manga forums will remain active and we encourage all of you to continue using them. OMF has developed into a great community and it would be a shame to see that disappear.
Regardless of whether you stay with us or not, on behalf of the One Manga team, I would like to thank you all for your unwavering support over the years. Through the ups and downs you have stuck with us, and that is what kept us going.
As a certain Porky was fond of saying... That's all folks!
Time for me to go lay down and let this all sink in.
