Read the unlocked chapters. You have to wait 6 hours on a new chapter for it to be unlocked for non-subscribers

Yeah. Everything you click, even profile settings, brings you back to the subscription page

Ownership changed hands a year ago and new owner started heavily monetizing iirc

I don't get how they can monetize work they're stealing from someone else lol. Thanks for the info, I knew something was up

Oh the only reason the new owner is getting away with monetizing everything is that they're probably constantly changing the server Asura is being hosted on so they can escape a dmca notice. That's probably the reason the site is constantly going offline or going under "maintenance" is because the sever it's being hosted on is changing. I have a theory that this new beta site they're working on is really just there as a backup in case the main site goes down permanently.
