Damn

Yeah if I'm paying to read something I don't want a time limit on how long I'm allowed to read it, that's annoying. If Renta had a monthly subscription fee I'd totally go for it though.

yeah the only thing that has me hesitating on renta is that i have to pay more to be able to go back and read chapters
lezhin may be trash but they had a better system so i’ve paid for it in the past
but renta...maybe in the distant future but currently it’s a pass

Its obnoxious. In what world is fair to pay 10$ (5 chapters) for a 48h read?? And Im not even talking about the fact that its only a digital copy. Abusive. If it was a fair price I would spend my wallet there since they have a lot of great mangas while lezhin,tapas and tappytoon only have a few good yaois. Even if I have the money I just dont spend it when I feel Im being robbed.

Saw your comment on the front page. The site you are talking about seems a bit unfair considering the apparent time limit on when you can access the bought webtoon. I buy chapters from Lezhin, and also the EBook version of my favourite mangas, them just comment and discuss them on here. So knowing the price of these formats, where there aren't any restrictions on how long they are available to read, their way of selling does seem a bit greedy, and doesn't seem to be done with the intent of supporting the authors.

Actually it’s $1 for 48hr and $2 for unlimited(no time limit just like Lezhin) for all their regular releases. Also when there’s no option for a 48hr rental, it means it’s an unlimited release. Unlimited is pretty much forever unless the site shuts down which is the same case for Lezhin. Please don’t spread false information.

The only time you’d pay $2 for 48hr is for titles that are worth $3-4 unlimited but that’s only because they are longer releases(usually 50-70 pages).

Examples:

Regular Chapter Release(which is what this manga will be like since the pages are average 25-35pgs)

Longer Chapter Release(not common and much longer 50+)

They do have an unlimited option for their regular releases which is only $2(200 points) and you can rent them 48hr for $1. The OP posted wrong information and misled you. It’s pretty similar to Lezhin actually. Unlimited means there’s no time limit. They also have an app available both for iOS and Android devices. The site is also available internationally, they accept credit cards and PayPal.
I’m sorry if I sound like an informercial but I really dislike when people spread false information.

You can check out their site for yourself if you don’t believe me. They also have coin/point sales every Wednesday.

Please read my reply to this comment thread. This user spread false information regarding how Renta works and I clarified and even included examples. Renta is actually very similar to Lezhin. Their unlimited chapters are only $2 and you only pay once just like Lezhin and you can read them whenever you want. There’s no time limit. There’s only a time limit if you choose the 48hr rental which $1 not $2.
If you have any questions feel free to ask me.

Here’s their site if you’re interested on checking it out for yourself:

Fair enough.

False information? YOU YOURSELF said and linked mangas that cost 2$ for a 48h read. WHEN and WHERE did I ever say that EVERY manga there cost 2$ for 48h read???????????????????? SERIOUSLY I WANT YOU TO QUOTE ME WHEN AND WHERE I SAID ANY LIE HERE, COME ON DO IT. First none that I said is FALSE since we can see that in YOUR links there are plenty of mangas THAT DO COST 2$ FOR 48H READ. I NEVER SAID that EVERY EVERY EVERY EVERY MANGA THERE COST 2$ 48H READ Learn how to read before calling me a liar. So YEAH 2$ for 48h IS INDEED ABUSIVE and it happens there INDEED. It doeSNt matter if it is a 50 pages one its STILL ABUSIVE IMO and IM free to think this way. Also 1$ for 48h in a 30 page one is STILL abusive since in other webtoon sites like LEZHIN you pay less then 1$ for 3 COINS that unlock any chapter FOR EVER. So to Sum things up 1- I NEVER SAID ANY LIE YOUR LINK PROVES IT // 2- 2$ for 48h read IS ABUSIVE NO MATTER WHAT// 3 - 1$ for a 48h read IS STILL ABUSIVE and more expensive than other webtoons sites. So to everyone that is reading this RENTA IS A LOT MORE EXPENSIVE THAN ANY WEBTOON SITE where you pay less than 1$ to unlock one chapter for ever while in renta you pay 1$/2$ for 48h read or 2$/whatever for unlimited each chapter. You must be out of your mind to come here and call me a liar. GO back to school learn how to read and then see the facts that you linked. I don't know who you are but you dont just go ofending random people calling them liars just because your behind a computer screen. NONE THAT I SAID IS LIE. STILL WAITING FOR YOU TO QUOTE WHERE I SPREAD "FALSE INFORMATION" SAYING THAT EVERY SINGLE RENT CHAPTER FROM ANY MANGA THERE COST 2$. ALL I SAID IS THERE IN RENTA WEBSITE IS WHERE YOU FIND MANGAS THAT YOU MUST PAY 2$ FOR A 48H READ WICH IS TRUE.

Thanks but I already knew all that information as I already have a Renta account and the app on my phone (it's super glitchy and slow though so I don't really use it).

Similar to Lezhin MY ASS in lezhin I pay less than 1$ for 3 coins that can unlock anything for ever while in renta I must pay 2$/4$/whatever for unlimited this is MORE THAN DOUBLE PRICE. So yeah RENTA is WAY more expensive. Btw tappytoon and tapas are even CHEAPER than lezhin so Im not even gonna compare it to renta.

Well the manga and webtoon formats are completely different. 2-3 webtoon chapters are pretty much about 1 manga chapter(give or take), so the prices make sense. I enjoy both formats so I support various artists. Besides I wasn’t comparing the prices between both platforms, I was talking about how the unlimited feature in Renta acts the same as if you were to buy a chapter from Lezhin. I was also correcting the prices you listed because you posted wrong information which could lead others away from supporting the mangaka. Whether you think it’s worth it that’s for you to decide.

I,too buy from Lezhin, Renta, TappyToon, Tapas and even support artists on Patreon. I actually find Tapas to have the best method for earning coins out of all of them especially since it allows others who can’t afford to buy coins a way to earn them and still support the artists. It’d also be nice to see more platforms implement a system similar to Patreon, where it’s a monthly payment/subscription . All these sites have their own pros and cons but I’m not going to delve into it.

My main arguement was you spreading wrong information, that’s all.

My main point was comparing prizes as you can see in my first post where I clearly say renta is a lot more expnsive than others, and Im still waiting for you to quote where I spread wrong information. NONE I said was wrong nor false. In your OWN post we can see there are plenty mangas in renta for 2$/48h read and I NEVER said that every single manga in renta costs that price, I said that on renta website is where there are mangas you must pay for 2$/48h rent to read wich is abusive IMO. Also like I said previously 2$ for unlimited is still more than double price of lezhin's. Btw "2-3 webtoons are pretty much 1 manga chapter"? are you kidding me? Most of them are colored and have like 60 pages each chapter while mangas are black/white with 30 pages, get a clue I just read starry sky for 3 coins on lezhin chapter was super long there were 79 COLORED pages in one single chapter. Whatever you say I never spread false information like you saying I did. Facts are : less than 1$ for unlimited on lezhin // 2$/2$+++ for unlimited on renta or 1$/2$ for 48h rent. If I was saying bullshit/lie here I wouldnt have 19 likes on this post people are not dumb. Be carefull next time you accuse someone of anything read their post with care. Ill say once again NONE I SAID IS FALSE/LIE. Renta is a lote more expensive than any other, and there are mangas there you must pay for 2$/48h rent tho I NEVER said all mangas there cost this price.

You literally said “Renta is where you pay $2 for a 48hr read each ch”. You never clarified it’s only for certain series, which again is not even the majority of Renta’s releases. It was misleading and led others to believe that it applies to all their series and how the site worked. The replies you got from others prove my point.

The reason I said give or take is because I took colored webtoon chapters into consideration. Besides panels and “pages” are not the same thing. You need to educate yourself more on what goes into both webtoon and manga formats. Manga is not just “black and white pages”. There are a lot of panels, patterns, backgrounds, inking etc that go into making one single chapter. Artists of both formats work just as hard and I’m not undermining any of their work. I admit that probably should have found a better way to word my point. Also the reason mangas can be more expensive than webtoons is because webtoon companies like Lezhin and Tapas work directly with the artists. The artists are signed under their companies whereas sites like Renta and even English publishers like Sublime and June Manga have to pay a licensing fee to the Japanese publishing companies that the mangakas are under. Japanese companies are known for having expensive licensing fees which makes it harder and more expensive for English publishers. Hence why they may have to charge more to make back profit because at the end of the day they are businesses. A lot goes into determining how these series are priced.

Whether you choose to buy from Renta, that’s on you. Once again my main issue was that your comment was misleading and spreading false information since what you said doesn’t apply to each chapter like you said in your original comment.

I don’t want to waste any more of my time trying to have a civil discussion with you so this’ll be the last time I reply to your comments. Have a good day :)

"You literally said “Renta is where you pay $2 for a 48hr read each ch”. You never clarified it’s only for certain series" EXACTLY I never clarified its only for certain series NOR that its for ALL series either so why the fuck you went that way?? I only said that on Renta website this happens. As you can see here : https://www.ebookrenta.com/renta/sc/frm/item/133187/ you pay for 2$ each chapter just the way I said. If you were mislead thats your own problem not mine. just dont come here in my post saying that I Lied cause is 100% true there are mangas there where you pay 2$/48h rent. Also dont assume the others were also mislead just like you cause youre not in their heads. But yeah thats exactly your mistake you ASSUMED waaayyyy too many things here, things I NEVER SAID. You can say 100 times Im spreading false information and Ill say 101 times that youre the one who got mislead on your own you interpreted what I said the way you wanted and you even proved what I said wich is hilarious LOL you literally proved my "False Information" ty for that LMAO. About the reason why the cost is abusive dont just put the blame it all on "Japanese publishing" Im pretty sure Renta has its share of greed on this dont just cover for them like that. About the "replies you got from others" ???? I didnt get any reply from anyone saying I was spreading false information like you did wtf?? You just assumed things the way you want its surreal and scary. All the crap youre saying that I said l is on your mind none was written by me like " You never clarified it’s only for certain series" yeah and I NEVER clarified it was for EVERY series either. Be really careful from now on so next time you dont accuse people by assuming things on your own. Dont put words in people's mouth.

It’s like paying to borrow every single book you check out from the library, but you can only keep for 2 days Dx where is the logic?!?

Pretty much it LOL, no actually its even worse since its a digital copy its not even the actual book XD

At least with Lezhin if you catch the deals or special events you can practically get whole series for free too. I've just had a lot of issues with the Renta app and site as well that cause me to not want to use it if possible. I mean I can go on Amazon and buy manga through Kindle if I want but still the selection of English titles is limited.
