Note

This bot uses a web scraper to fetch the latest chapter of a given manga. It sources data from Manganato. If a manga isn't available or hasn't been updated on Manganato, it will be added to the Error array.
Depending on how big your follow list is, the bot can take a few minutes to run the /check-follow command. The bot also has a timeout function of 5 minutes. If your follow list is too long or if your internet connection is not great, you may trigger the timeout function and encounter an error.

Known Issues

Issues

• The MangaDex API sometimes returns an unexpected value, causing a manga to be filtered into the Error array
• The tinmeout function around the modal submit function (src>config>discord>index>line 132) causes the server to crash.
