Bilibili Comics Shutdown

On January 24th, 2024, Bilibili Comics announced the shutdown of the service on February 29, 2024. There’s a lot that can be said about Bilibili Comics and how they have operated in the past 2, 2.5 years, but the conclusion is the same, whether the criticism is positive or negative, so there’s not much point in discussing all the issues and their, at times questionable or failed, solutions.

The service has continued to be updated with new chapters, possibly due to the fact that people have paid for Early Access. But I personally think that should have been refunded when there was just 1 month to the shutdown of the service if the purpose is early access. It’s not “early” if the service shuts down. That’s more like a scam.

We’re on the finale days and they have definitely not offered a few days of free access for all so they’ll end the service with this scam as well.

Over these years, I’ve actually used Bilibili Comics quite frequently, and have read a lot. So I went through the entire title list at the time of writing the initial intro (2 weeks ago) and listed each that I have at some point read, or tried to read, to share what I thought about it and how much I read. Some are available on other sites as well, or they are adapted from novels. I’ll try to share as much information as I can about these, and I’ll also add links when there are any other sources to read the titles in English, either novel or comic.
