Japanese publishers' idea of fighting against manga piracy: kill all legal options and launch their own website that is only available in USA (kmanga).
Gee, I wonder why that didn't work!
You forgot to mention the absolutely idiotic way kmanga works.
I'd mention that if they allowed me to even access the front page from my country. :)

They do it to get you to buy points because they seem incapable of understanding any monetization strategy besides paying-per-chapter
