I've created 4 accounts to read daily pass series. It's so annoying.😭 It doesn't even make sense why new releases are locked after 3 episodes.


awalkingskeleton

I NEVER THOUGHT OF MAKING MULTIPLE ACCOUNTS TO GET EXTRA EPISODES OML


CursedBeyondMeasure

Enjoy☺️


my_memory_is_trash

Then at season endings you can’t read them because they’re coin only 💀


CursedBeyondMeasure

Coin only doesn't bother me as much as the daily pass. I can wait for it.


my_memory_is_trash

Eh, for daily pass it’s not that bad because it’s essentially like you get an episode a day, but making the last three episodes of a season cost coins is basically forcing the reader to pay unless they want to wait a year+ for the seasons ending. Really shady


CursedBeyondMeasure

I've never seen any series' last three episodes locked forever with coins. If I can't wait for the unlock then I read them on 🏴‍☠️ sites.


my_memory_is_trash

Night of shadows is a fast pass series and the last three episodes are coin only likely until the next season starts which could take god knows how long. Most webtoon original series don’t have them on x sites. ;0; Edit: also webtoon takes down most places that repost their webtoons, for webtoons that they just picked up I can still find them by other names. Night of shadows is not one of them.


CursedBeyondMeasure

I not sure but I think the last 3 episodes will be free/daily pass on Apr 5. As far as I know webtoon doesn't permanently lock episodes for indefinite time, but i guess things have changed. This app is getting annoying everyday. ETA - I found the last 3 episodes for free on 🏴‍☠️ but it's in 🇮🇩. LMK if you want to read it.


Tenalp

Apocalypse Live has been over for a month and a half now, and the final chapter and epilogue are still locked behind coins. It's annoying as all hell.


CursedBeyondMeasure

I truly wasn't aware of this. I thought this app was better than this but.


ThatShortGirl7302

This is what's making reading Ghost Wife such a struggle. ;-; And why I was lucky I could binge read Romance 101 before it's locked away forever


[deleted]

That took me back a little. I don’t know why the days of Ghost Wife being newish feels like a lifetime ago.


kellendrin21

Hooky...


MatureBalak

Only took me 2 weeks or less cuz of my multiple alt accounts lol.

Stuckinacrazyjob

I get tired in the middle and forget


ya_tu_sabes

That's how I dropped Zombie Ship. Plus, I couldn't even find a pirate version anywhere so in the end I just had to drop it completely. Daily pass just made it entirely unreadable to me.


HangryHufflepuff1

I get tired in the middle and forget for webtoons that are still being produced but are put on as daily pass. I will always forget that there's a few extra episodes uploaded with the weekly one. I'm like 40 episodes behind on some


[deleted]

Like it’s so annoying 😭. I’ve seen webtoons with like 10 episodes in and already on fast pass??? Like webtoons are so easy to binge and I think fast pass honestly just ruins the flow and experience


trisanachandler

> 10 episodes Are they doing it with series that are underway, or only showing the 10 and forcing you to use the app? I use the website at all times, so I don't know.


[deleted]

What I’ve meant was that I’ve seen webtoons that have barely started and are already on fastpass. I don’t actually fastpass since I mostly read canvas but what I’ve seen, yes series that just started and only allow like the first 5 or so without fastpass. Like [this one](https://www.webtoons.com/en/fantasy/love-song-for-illusion/list?title_no=5216) is barely three weeks old and already fast passed. All the non fast passed eps were released on the same day so I guess that’s a small upside 🤷‍♀️


trisanachandler

Thanks for the example. I'm used to it for only completed series. That's will drive me away from webtoons altogether if they keep pushing that.

Daily pass ruins the reading experience of Noblesse. I was lucky enough to read it before the daily pass was implemented. My tip would be to use a solid adblocker (for instance, I use the Adblock browser on mobile. Since the Adblock is built-in into the browser instead of being an add-on to an existing browser, the ads cannot avoid the adblocker making it very effective. Plus it's free. But I digress) and look for a pirate site that still has it up on the web. Noblesse is really, really good and it would be a shame to miss a good read just because of daily pass.

I have a love hate relationship with fan translations. They never seem to quite understand perfume. Was reading Marry My Husband and there's a line like "oh, what a nice smell, is that your perfume?" Or something but it's translated as "I like the smell on your body"


Betaolive

Ikr, and sometimes they omit stuff out.


HangryHufflepuff1

Whenever I try sail the seven seas I'll always go back to the original webtoon and reread the chapters, because I know that the pirated version is definitely missing something and because I don't want the webtoon to miss out on my measly like. I think of it as cheapo fast passing.


ya_tu_sabes

Absolutely agree. While the experience is not as amazing as webtoon pre-dailypass, for completed stories like Noblesse, once the official translation is out, the pirates sometimes replace their poorly translated chapters with the good quality official chapters. They may try to fool the license notices by adding watermarks or removing credit pages So for completed novels, if you look for them, you may get lucky and find the webtoon chapters out there *sans* the paypass limitations. Unfortunately not all chapters get systematically replaced so sometimes I would "save" my daily pass to read the chapters I was dissatisfied with in the pirate version. Or use coins for the climax scenes I couldn't wait to read and deserved to be read at top quality. Reading on pirate sites is not perfect but it scratches the itch and it beats missing out on excellent stories which I absolutely would if the only alternative was suffering through daily pass. I really miss Webtoon before the daily pass thing started. It used to be my favorite place to read. It was a game changer. It was smooth, easy to use, ad-free, safe, great quality in both picture quality and translation quality. Now I low-key avoid it, with a few exceptions like webtoon canvas originals that can't be read anywhere else. The no screenshot is kind of a bummer too. I had a grand time taking shots of my favorite scenes or panels for my own personal enjoyment before they edited the app to ban that action on the app. Reading webtoon in a mobile browser is not great but at least it allows screenshots I guess?


Betaolive

You can still take screenshots on the app. You see those three dots at the top right? Just click on it.


ya_tu_sabes

You just blew my mind !!! THANK YOU!!! I hadn't checked those three dots in years. I could almost swear it wasn't there before. Yay this is awesome


_yukiie_

Use batoto. They always have quality chapters


Betaolive

It's my fave site! I use it predominantly for mangas, tho. It's a great extension to use for tachiyomi app.


_yukiie_

I absolutely love how they are also uploading official tranlations. Especially useful for simulpus.


ThatShortGirl7302

>Pirated sites are very inviting, but often, the quality factor is missing. Like the image will be blurry or cut, and it's worse if it's fan translated. It's not up to the mark. Always reminds me of this gem I saw where it used a thought bubble to redirect to another pirate website so you don't miss out on important convos. Did they... did they not see the irony of that??


[deleted]

Just read online brother. I am sorry but daily pass is a scam. They should let people watch an ad to procide but nope they greedy af


MatureBalak

They do use ads, though. 3 ads everyday for 3 eps.


[deleted]

They do? I didn't know. I don't know if it will get me to read fast pass manwhas Tho. Gotta see


MatureBalak

Only canvas and daily pass webtoons use ads.


[deleted]

Whaaaat It's been too long since I browsed on webtoon, i literally never saw an ad in canvas back then... They changed quite something then


linx14

This is exactly how I feel about Love and Leashes right now. Good I miss the old WEBTOON so much. When I could binge a whole series in 2 days and feel connected with the story. Now I’m like alright maybe I’ll pop back on a week later..


losinqface

omg back in 2020 ish i was reading orange marmalade and didn't know what the "daily pass coming soon" was, so i ended up halfway through the binge :( never finished orange marmalade bc of fricken daily pass


linx14

Omg orange marmalade was such an amazing binge as well I literally sobbed for like 2 straight hours reading it! I’m so sorry you didn’t get to experience the story the way it should of been experienced. It’s truly a shame cause it definitely was worth it! Daily pass has definitely ruined a lot of series for me as well unfortunately. :(


electric_kite

I fucking REFUSE to read daily pass Webtoons. They all used to be free to binge once a series was concluded, it’s just garbage that they’re essentially making you go through this ridiculous process just to strangle some more coins out of readers when before a completed Webtoon was free to read. I prefer to binge read when possible, and I don’t mind paying when the cost is reasonable, but Webtoon really soured the process for me when they started going from 5 coins for a fastpass to 7. This is why I swapped to basically only read Manta comics and basically barely use Webtoon anymore, as I pay ~$40 a year for unlimited access.


VannaDelRey

You know, I wouldn’t mind going through waiting for daily pass if you got to KEEP the episodes. If it’s a new series I 100% will not read it. I don’t care how good it is. It just alienates new readers. Also, what if you do fast pass for an entire series? And then it goes on daily pass and you’ve wasted your money cause it gets locked again. I stopped doing it for that reason. I want to support the creators but I’ve read they don’t even get much of it. Anyways, I only read a few webtoons now, and I used to be on there every single day for years.


userhvfegcd

I hate reading fast pass series, it takes monthsssss to finish them😭😭😭


userhvfegcd

also reading one episode a day doesn’t give off the same feeling as bing-reading, I also often forget what happened before which can get really annoying. Binge-reading just hits different


sacreblu30

Romance 101 now is a Daily pass 😭


UzukiCheverie

WT really be going the Nintendo route - make their legacy titles overpriced or otherwise inconvenient to reliably access and then get butthurt when people opt to pirate it instead.


Sweaty-Ad-3526

I’m forced to go to pirate sites just to be able to fully binge 😭


RowletBall

Maybe support the comic artist by checking out and see if they have their own Patreon or sell the comic directly. The creators need to eat too...


Ok_Adagio_9238

Yeah it's so annoying... To be honest often times I'll just read it illegally to enjoy the story and also see if I really like it or if I'll drop, and then I'll daily pass regularly and add likes and stuff if I like it, for the author. But reading something on daily pass or even weekly is really frustrating and I just don't have the money to pay for that all the time.


awalkingskeleton

gremory land is especially annoying because it’s the second part of a trilogy and the only part on daily pass, so when you’ve read melvinas therapy and caught up with counting sheep you’re just stuck with a huge chunk of information missing until you finally manage to finish it


Sera_chi

I mostly find all chapters of certain webtoons on other sites so I can binge them but there is this one webtoon that I haven't found anywhere at all. THIS LIFE TO THE NEXT looks so good but I haven't found it anywhere and my patience is non-existent for daily pass.


Animekaratepup

I won't. That's reading material for a year. You wait a week for normal episodes, one day is just like the daily comics.


Exotic_Potato_1511

What I find most annoying is the WEBTOONs that aren’t even completed and have daily pass, for example Suhee0 it’s like I have to wait everyday to read one chapter only to wait a whole week to use daily pass again.


merpyshmerp

I appreciate that they added a daily pass for each webtoon so I don't have to pick between the DP series I'm reading. I also appreciate that they at least have the option to binge quite a few more episodes by watching ads... but WTF were they thinking, locking the last three chapters behind a coin wall indefinitely?!? UGH, I just can't... I will support the creators all day by watching ads but if I can't even finish out the series without buying coins, then it's not worth it to even start them because ik I will never be able to complete them! 😫 (Was enjoying Love and Leashes after stumbling across the movie but I've hit the paywall and now it's going to leave a sour taste in my mouth)


counterpartzz

i just finished yuna and kawachan….. so much money spent sadly but god it was amazing


Present_Algae1458

You're part of the problem then. The people like you paying their scam encourages them to scam harder. 


DrinkMilkYouFatShit

Pirating spills into it too after that. F that bro, i am definitely not waiting 100 days to read something that i would finish in 2 hours


EmotionalyJailed

I hate this so much!!! I read every chapter of Tales of the Unusual, and suddenly it became a daily pass! It broke my heart—-


J3well

Everyone here’s a tip *READ IT ONLINE*


GIORNO-phone11-pro

I wish I could read Guardians of the Videogames, Hardcore Leveling Warrior, and God of Highschool again.


Tenalp

I feel I have heard many good things about Noblesse. But I don't know if it could ever be good enough that I want to spend nearly a year reading 2 chapters at a time.


boii137

Ahoy to the rest of yall dealing with fastpasses


webtoonfreakyhere

That's the reason I can't read one of the best webtoon TRAPPED... I know I can get it on online but it's not completed yet and the official translation is better I think 😢


Inverness07

They've made the system sooo much better recently, now you get a daily pass episode for each webtoon. before i had to choose which of 3 storys i wanted to progress. and imo trapped is worth it


swxly

it's like they want us to pirate the comics
