Wanted to get back into reading webcomics, and figured I'd start here since I loved the subscription model. Even with less titles there were some great ones and I was just so tired of being nickel and dimed in every other app, and just being able to read everything for a flat fee was super refreshing! I see that's no longer the case and most episodes are only unlockable with gems which can get quite pricey. Very unfortunate to see this happen. I'm too sick of that to revisit this app anymore.

Hi there, thanks for your feedback. While we remain committed to the subscription model, adding Gem titles has allowed us to bring you more stories while also offering the original creators another option to share their work. Rest assured, we’ve passed your feedback to our team. For more details about this change, visit our Help Center.

Manta seems to be moving towards a purchasing system where you pay for each individual chapter. Most of their new comics are gem only, which makes the subscription kind of pointless, though there are still some good subscription comics. Not a lot of variety, mostly just variations of the same reincarnation/isekai story or romance. And don't forget if you want to cancel your subscription because there are no reminders or refunds. ETA: Why bother telling me to contact you just to refuse a refund? Edited

It was a great starting app. I liked that all I had to do was pay a monthly to read a vast selection. I hate the coin system of other apps. I kept this one even when I wasn't super reading anything because of that and it was reasonably priced. There's not really much I have an interest in reading anymore that's not on hiatus and most of the new stuff coming out you need to pay extra for. They later added coins with subscriptions at a higher priced tier, but honestly not worth it.

I used to love this app, you got to read everything for the price of a subscription. Now most of the content is locked behind "gems" even if you have the subscription. When I'm already paying a subscription why would I want to pay MORE just to read what used to be included? There's even several I had saved that are now locked. Most likely will be canceling, it's not worth it anymore

Once upon a time, I would have given this app a higher rating. Many of the series are quality productions, even if many are also very cliché. However, it really bothers me how many series now cost an additional fee to unlock and read via the purchase of "gems," which are too pricey for my meager budget. This includes many that didn't used to cost extra. It's really frustrating to be asked to pay for something I've essentially already paid for. I'd much rather just pay a higher subscription fee.
