Probably the last big thing for #medabots 3 - the localized version of the patch (sans audio).
Lots of work went into this from a lot of people, so hope you all enjoy!
I need to find an alternative to RHDN but, for now, it'd be helpful if people could share this around.

This unfortunately also hit the Medarot chapters I've been uploading. Will let you guys know once we find an alternative.
PSA: MangaDex unfortunately had to comply with a C&D and honor DMCA takedown requests for hundreds of series, including almost everything we have worked on in the past 5+ years. We are currently looking for an alternative.
