Congrats!! Here is to many many more years!!

Congrats on the 20 years! The site hasn't changed any visually since I've started using it, which is very unique among a lot of websites, but you know, if it ain't broke, don't fix it. Here's to the next 20!

I had to check my page to see how long I've actually been on here (16 years). I love that the site survived this long and kept it's style. Hopefully there will be a 40th anniversary and beyond.

I ed almost right away after finding the website... So in 2011... So i suppose 13 years strong here... Happy 20th

I discovered baka-updates in 2003 (1 year after its founding) and I the announcement of the creation of mangaupdates a year later. Back then I still liked anime more than manga but I read manga to stay further ahead of anime so I couldn't be spoiled.

By 2006 I was fully sick of every variety of filler and almost exclusively reading manga and spent almost no time on baka-updates anymore.

But I didn't make an here for years because I was only following a few series at the time, and I would literally just scan the entire Releases page daily with my raw eyes to see if there was a release I cared about. Once I finally made an ... yeah. I realized it was a mistake to have not made one sooner lmao.

Happy birthday to mangaupdates, I still lambchopsil's translations from way back in the day 🙂 I didn't really know Manick for anything besides mangaupdates though (sorry)!

A better functioning search function would be a blessing.

I also read EU/US comics and am a librarian.

Since ~2005: nyaa, tokyotosho, bakaupdates (rip), mangaupdates.

Congrats on the 20 years!

I agree, the site needs to modernize a bit. I would like an option to sort out the search from the year 2018 to 2024, but this is currently not possible.
But I still love this site, and I will love it for an eternity.

Even after dead, we raise from the ashes for the sake of manga.

Happy 20th, MU!!!! May you have many more~

And... I've been here for over 15 years, myself 😮 How time flies!

Apparently there are quite a lot started in 2009 mmm...

I will change this world mmm...
So the world can change me mmm...

Happy 20th! I can't believe it's been 7 years here and I'm also getting older stretching my body. Cheers for the years to come 🎉

Congratulations! I've been visiting this website myself every single day since 2010 so that's 14 years. Looking for English scanlations from this website has become a daily thing for me ever since I found out about this website.

Happy 20th Bday MU!

I occasionally do interesting things

Ah, the good "God, am i this old already?" poll. Quite enjoy using mu with its classic clean ui, as opposed to all the modern OPTIMIZED FOR MOBILES crap. Cheers and keep holding on.
