    I can’t remember if I have explicitly stated this or not, but it would be best not to post scans of official releases. I have posted the official VIZ release, but the rehosted scans are more explicitly pirated. If there is an alternative scanlation version that releases, that would be fine to post.

    I have been a bit lax in enforcement and I don’t have this listed in the sidebar yet (edit: just added now), so don’t worry about it this time, but I will make a meta post clarifying things this week when I get a chance.

      Nah, you did. I ended up posting this by reflex just before going to bed and didn’t really think about it. It’s a stupid mistake since I actively avoid posting other series that no longer have scanlation versions. Sorry about that and thanks for the reminder!

        No problem, this is something that was really nice about mangadex. They were extremely diligent about not hosting official scans (unless it was sanctioned). So, you never had to worry about sharing a MD link. With Comick hosting both, it has made life harder, having to check the source before sharing when they are both on there.
