Is this a possible feature?If it already is a feature how do I activate it?
Currently the online reader does not display thumbnails for subscription content, but it is something we will be working on soon.

Regardless I hope you enjoy the content we've been releasing, let us know if you have any suggestions on how we can improve things (other than downloads). 1st) Subscribing a tag is fee-free. Yet it has been called a subscription since the beginning...
2nd) Since any fee-subscriber who stop to pay won't access the content anymore, it looks/is more like a rent, isn't is ?
So : I suggest Fakku calls/renames this paid access (rather) a season/monthly ticket. That way would avoid misunderstandings.
Also it would be nice to permit ticket holders to access the whole library with no restriction, whatever the date of publication :-)
Earlier today I renamed subscribing an artist/tag/series to following. So from now on you can follow any attribute on the website and receive notifications when new content is released.

So how do i do anything with the file? I opened it with notepad, but i have no idea what I'm looking at. I noticed a couple of the titles of the removed favorites i had. Do i have to go through the file and find all the titles, or is there a more convenient way to do this?Ideally someone will build a tool that can do more with the export, that's all we can provide.

Any news on when the other tags will be coming back? I assumed they'd be coming back when the subscription stuff rolled out yet there's some loli w/o the tag uploaded a few days ago and it's one of the few things that I actively avoid.Probably today/tomorrow the controversial setting and all the tags will return.

Q: If I understand correctly - FAKKU books are compilations of chapters released in the monthly magazines which we are getting to read upon being a subscriber. That said, should a book be released, would these chapters be removed off the site as a subscriber content?This is actually a really good question, and one I don't have a definitive answer for right now. But I give you credit for being the first person in this thread to make that connection (it's something I've been thinking about as well).
Sometimes when an artist releases a book they will go back and redraw a lot of the artwork to make it look nicer (this actually happens a lot). As an example if you look at Second Wife and compare the magazine/book, when the book was released the artist completely changed the outfit of the yandere girl and give her striped stockings. The artist also chose to remove all of the magazine title art for each chapter and swapped to more consistent title art for the book. So book chapters and magazine chapters can change pretty drastically (which is a good thing in this situation).
So this will probably be something we decide once it becomes an issue, specifically once we are releasing a book that has a chapter from a magazine that is already on the website. This is also something the artist will have a say in as well, so they might just want it one way or the other. That said, I expect (and this could change) that we will leave the magazine chapter untouched and available to subscribers, and then if you want to purchase the book you can get the updated version along with the download links.

Making me cry here guys. 12.95 is a lot for me not to have every shiwasu no okina release already. I'm just saying...I really hope that one day we will publish some Shiwasu no Okina.

Here's a quicky at the end of my first post ever; Will the subscription feature eventually remove those not-so-quirky-adds that keeps popping up and is the only thing that can truly ruin the slippery slope adventure that is a visit to the FAKKU site? #?(The adds are a nightmare on IPad and IOS, they are easier to handle on PC even with adblock off; as the adds has been an important source of income I've choosen not to have it active whilst browsing the site on my heavy-duty-box!)
I'm happy to hear your excited! It really is an incredible opportunity for all of us to get closer to the artists. And to answer your question, yes the subscription removes all advertisements from the website, every single one. You have the option to turn them on or off, and it defaults to off once your subscription starts.

Yeah, same as others on this thread. Paid, "Your subscription is now active" and nothing. That was 4 hours ago.Waiting for a fix or a stealth edit I guess.
I'll send you an email right now and we'll get it figured out.

I see, that's what I feared. No reason to buy it again then. Thanks for your reply.Regardless I hope you enjoy the content we've been releasing, let us know if you have any suggestions on how we can improve things (other than downloads).

So does the subscription last until the end of the month or last the full 30 days?Someone gets it on 9/19/15, will it end on 10/19/15 or just end when October starts?
It says your renewal date on the FAKKU Gold page in your account settings, it's every month based on the day you subscribed.
This first week or so the subscription content will heavily outweigh anything else uploaded to the site (we have 5 months of backlogged content to release). Plus we are starting pre-orders on the Meme50 book next week which will take up some space. Once the first week is over it'll be back to normal, and subscriptions will only be 1-2 uploads per day.

I have a fairly good computer, have never ever experienced freezing or the cpu even being challenged, but when i try to read a subscription my computer shits its pants and nothing loads . Really disappointed right now.What browser are you using? We pushed some new reader code recently that is probably causing the issue.
Hey Jacob, I was using Google Chrome and it would almost crash my computer, tried Firefox to see how that works and it works 100% on Firefox ! Thanks for the quick reply! Really enjoy the new subscribe option! Hopefully you guys fix it on chrome as that is my preferred browser. Cheers!
We're working to get this fixed right now, I believe there is another thread where we are discussing it. Hopefully we'll have a fix live be end of day today.
Locking this thread since it has to do with another issue which has been resolved.

So far I'm happy with the amount of content, and that it is translated and uncensored, but disappointed in the variety of the content. There seems to be virtually no maledom content for example, but lots of NTR, femdom, and vanilla. Will the magazine licenses planned in the future be likely to balance this out at all?Trust me when I say these magazines have just about every genre covered, we'll be releasing things all week long and I have no doubt there will be something you like.

I keep getting an error message when I'm trying to subscribe saying that I need to put in a first and last name. Romanizing my korean name which is also how its written on my card comes up with a total of 3 words/names but even when I delete the space from my first name it still tells me to put in a first and last name.This should now be fixed!

I keep getting"There was a problem.
You did not fill out the form correctly. Please enter a first and last name."
I clearly typed my name correct and checked the data several times. Since I have a middle name I tried it with and without it but it just doesn't work.
P.s. I'm using Master Card
Should be working now! Thanks for letting us know about that issue.

Grats on the subscription service Jacob. It is good to see the site grow and provide a method for people to finally support the artists after all of these years.It is a shame to see all my old stuff that was translated being removed, but it is for the best.
Rock on man :).
Thanks for the support Shadow! It was a sad day when we first removed work from the old FAKKU scanlation team, but in the end it's all for the best.

I am not sure if someone already asked this question. Is it possible to cancel at any time?EvilDireTiger wrote...
Is there any way to cancel the subscription at this time. Just wondering.You can cancel your subscription at any time in your account settings, specifically: "My Account" -> "Settings" -> "FAKKU Gold" -> "Cancel Subscription". Once you do you will still be able to access all subscription content during the remainder of the month you paid for.
