I have the same problem like gwengwel. I think it would be good if there would be the mangas categorize like "new" or "recent update" at the manga directory. I think it would be a good solution for this problem.

(Sorry if I make some grammar mistakes.)

Thanks for your efforts. I'd like this website. It's the best.

When searching if you select different types of genres, it selects all mangas that have that genre description.

For example
historical, romance, slice of life = HRSL

however if there is a

Historical Romance

it will not show up

if there is a HRSL + comedy it will show up.

I think that may be the problem.

When using the search engine anything thing you click on will have to be included in each individual manga that comes up. That's why you can get HRSL + Comedy but not Historical Romance. HR does not include the SL you chose so it excludes it. It has to incorporate all genres you chose in your search. If you want Historical Romance you have to pick just those two. The search engine will not list everything that has just one of the genres you chose or any combination of just two. If you want to read stuff that has Historical or Romance or Slice of Life, you're going to have to look through each genre individually.

Hope that explains it for you.

The Search Function is very conplicated system so if you want to fix it yourself go right ahead let see if you can do in 2 months without paying some high price techs and ripping apart the site.
