P.S.
Jacob, can you add a "read later" function for us free users? In case I (we) come back, I'd like to catch up on all the stuff I couldn't read like the "getting NTR'd" manga that I heard (according to the comments) is "a love story" and "is good" (doubt it but curiosity be damned).

P.P.S Edit:

Will content on the month you paid for still be available after your subscription has ended?

Got an error when making my payment, backed out and tried again, checked card and was double charged. Any chance of getting that extra charge back?

I realize that in the future FAKKU will essentially go subscription only so this may change in the near future but just a few comments. As it stands right now UX of signing up is terrible. I had to login to my account, scroll through a wall of text and click two subscribe buttons just to find out how much the subscription costs in the first place. Just figured I'd point out that you're hurting your conversion rate by doing so. While the explanation letter is nice, get to the point first and put the wall of text underneath it.

Also if you have the means, consider a "tier" plan offering a slightly cheaper per month plan for those who sign up for 6 months/1 year, etc. up front as well. These tend to work wonders for many subscription based services

You've seemed to have put in a lot of hard work to make this subscription service worthwhile so it's definitely worth making sure it's as smooth and streamlined for the customer as possible. Just my two cents as I want to see you succeed and wish you success with your endeavor.

So I just got onto Fakku and I saw a BUNCH of subscription tags. Is this going to be a spasmodic thing or will it occur often?

Because, as a free user/pirate/wateveryouwanttocallme, I'm kind of worried.

it somehow charged me twice, but it also says on my profile that it wont renew until november, so maybe i got two months credit which is ok I guess.

Also, I am wondering, is it possible to have the description of payment changed so it doesnt show up as 'fakku' on my bank account?

I'd like option to buy for a month without automatic renewal.

Is there a timeline as to when you at least hope to get the other two publishers? How about older content? If all free content gets deleted Fakku would be faily empty for a while, I imagine(as compared to before). Also, are you planning on making all this current and future content available all the time, or are you gonna be taking out some chapters(say the not-so-popular ones) to make room for newer ones? If so what if we wanted to view it again and its not available anymore(the one thing I hate about netflix)? If you could answer these I'd appreciate it.

Can we subscribe to a particular artist or artists? That way we can be informed of uploads of new things which would cater to individual tastes. For example i'd sign-on but would want only Napata or Homunuculus as the the ones i have access to/informed of but don't want other stuff like those artists typically known for forced, ntr. Just asking.

If we ordered a subscription, how do we cancel our subscription after lets say for a month? (Just in case I am not satisfied with it, but at the moment I am satisfied)

1. Will there be free contents or all the releases be available to subscribers only?

2. Will the "FAKKU Subscription" contents be available to free users after X number of months?

3. If possible, can free users "hide" all subscription/books only content?

Gentlemen, it was a good run while it lasted, but now i will take my farewell
you can say all you want for the fact that fakku works with 50+ artists, translates their works immediately, and so on
But in my opinion almost 13$ monthly are too much for what i use and what it offers
if it was less expensive, maybe I could have stayed
good luck with everything, Jacob, no ill feeling

Hey, it's happening! This is really neato so far, and I'm on board with what's coming up. Though in the future, will the magazine chapters be released all at once when the magazine is published? 40 to 50 chapters is a lot, but it factors to 1-2 per day if you partition it that way. Personally I don't mind, but I would like to hear about this, and what others think of the flow of content through the service.

Okay, good for u guys, but I really want my 5 years worth of deleted favorites back, just the names, PLEASE. PLEASE? PLEASE??? Why are you taking so much time for something as simple as that? There is A LOT of ppl waiting... Come on.

Okay so this may just be a dumb question but will free accounts be able to still have forum access and the ability to DM each other? As much as I do enjoy the content that is put out by you guys reading through the forums and chatting with the awesome community has been some of my favorite moments.

Theres so much id like to say but it would just be a uneducated random nobodys futile opinion on the matter. I understand what both sides are saying. I wish this happened in the spring or next summer when winter isnt coming and moneys tight! Keep on keeping on and ill cya when I cya Fakku. ❤ D:

P.S. Someone may have asked this and/or I missed it being said someplace (Sorry in advance if so :x). If you sub than unsub do you still get to view the content for that month?

I was wondering what currency the payments are in?

At first, congratulation to this huge step! The webside is taking a good way.



My question: What's gonna happen to the Uploaders after all of the unlicensed content gets removed?

Nice, but there is still a lot of room to improve, like gallery descriptions, artists' info, circle renamings, magazine's information, better tagging, etc.
This has always been needed, and now that you are planning to "grow big" you should address these things as well.

As much as I'd like to support this by purchasing a subscription, I just can't bring myself to do so. 12.95 a month is ridiculous. Crunchyroll is 6.95 and Funimation is 7.95 (give or take a few cents), and I get way more out of either of those services than I ever get from Fakku. I'd consider paying if it was less than Crunchyroll, but as things stand there is no way a Fakku subscription would be worth my money. I simply don't read enough hentai to justify paying that much. Maybe other people do, but I certainly don't. Again, I appreciate what you're trying to do here, but it doesn't work for me.

Personally, I don't like subscription type service. I feel I didn't own them :-(
Do you have any plan to sell each magazine like fakku book in the future.

Wow. I'm surprised at how many people are balking at the price. I don't think that the price is all that different from what the folks in Japan pay for a magazine, and here, you're getting two magazines, not one, and it's uncensored to boot (though granted, it's only in digital form, not physical form like the Japanese subscribers get). With this, we're getting lots of content at a good pace, and some of it is from mangaka whose work never seems to get translated by the folks doing scanlations. And these aren't scanlations. They're the real deal at high quality, with the mangaka providing uncensored images rather than us only getting decensored versions that some fans photoshopped. This is awesome. And it's well worth the price.

This isn't regarding the subscription, but is this the end of the free readable content? I've been here since nearly the start (made an account eventually). I supported you guys also ( my badge :D ) but was just wondering if the free to read people are not going to get free to read content anymore.

First off, I love that we can get more translated content at a more regular speed so I am excited to be a part of this new service. My question follows as what are the subscribers getting besides the daily updates. For example, if I were to purchase the subscription at a later date, would I still have access to the previous content or is this service something like Netflix/Amazon Prime where we only have access to older content with a subscription?

$12.95 per month? Seriously? There had better be tons of releases every day or something because that's more than my Netflix or SWTOR subscriptions. I'd be a bit less reticent to do this if there were options for bundle prices for subscribing for longer periods (e.g. 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, etc.).

And I'd really like a Paypal option. No offense, but I'm not entrusting my payment card number(s) to an online subscription service like this. And I don't use Bitcoin, nor do I want to.

If I do decide to subscribe here and now, temporarily until you guys implement Paypal, can I change my billing method later?

yay, just subscribed.

but what's the easiest way to get to a list of subscription contents from the main page?

Is there a button (link) for it? or is there going to be one?
