At this point I have batches 1-4200 but I haven't read a single one. I just have them, Is there any hope for me if I want to read them all before 2020?
@YoungJackOffStar
The batches have been ongoing for years, so if you haven't looked at any by now, it's a mystery if you ever will.
@minhvipkk
Probably not. If there's another megabatch, I'd assume it'd include more.

This may sound dumb, but what actually are all these numbered FAKKU things? I dunno if I'm just stupid or something but I have no idea where these numbers come from or what is decided to get included within these files. Is it everything on the FAKKU website? Is it only a select few random books/chapters? I'm really confused and would appreciate it if someone could explain all this to me please! ?
@Quin15 These are subscription chapters, not the books or doujins (although there are books that are composed by chapters published in subscription). The numbering is just the order in which the releases have been published, and that includes chapters, colored chapters, interviews, etc.
@Quin15: Then you're a genius compared to me. As I STILL don't get it. Now don't get me wrong fellas, I've been torrenting comics, manga and all kinds of media since the early days of TPB, Demonoid & others, so I'm not exactly what you'd call virginal when it comes to the torrent scene. But man, I am stumped with this FAKKU stuff. I stumbled upon the site for wanting to support HentaiHaven (y'all HH fans out there know what I'm talkin about). Saw this attractive preview of "Courting Etranger" by Homunculus, so I wanted to try it first before I buy anything. I reckoned Nyaa/Sukebei should have the title if no one else does. And so here we are.
My question is, in the simplest of terms, how the heck are these FAKKU batch torrents organized & sorted? To be more specific, how am I supposed to know--just by looking at the release numbering--which batch WOULD be carrying "Courting Etranger" or any other FAKKU title I might be interested in checkin out? The gentleman @Andrew_Martin mentioned somethin about it being "subscription chapters and not really books/doujin". Now see, I'm normally pretty fast on the uptake, but I think I turned stupid overnight, as that explanation is just not registering right now. Yes, even the ones from @rbot2000's Readme AND Google Doc. Maybe it's just our mindsets. So for comparison, this is how my friends and I do it with American/Western comics or Western-released mangas. We're subscribed to a digital comicshop/service like Comixology, and if we wanna check out a title before buying it, we either stream it from a streaming site (if we're in a hurry) OR we go to a torrent site like TPB, etc., and either search for the title/issue directly, or if that doesn't work, we look for batch releases--similar to this torrent we're discussing right here. Since these batch torrents are organized by dates and/or publishers (like DCP 2019-July-Week 3 DC,Marvel,Top Cow or whatever), we just use the information we have to look for the batch uploads that WOULD contain the titles/issues that we wanna check out. That's it.
And respectfully gentlemen, PLEASE don't tell me to use the "File list" section above just to look for a title. Because I DID try it, but the tags AND titles there aren't even organized/sorted alphabetically. Meaning, the title could be packaged in ANY of the other batches. So using that method would mean that I would have to check EVERY single FAKKU batch release (AND their File Lists) on the site! Or at least every one by @rbot2000. But even that would just be too much. And thus, my question above. So we'll at least know/understand how to look for a specific FAKKU release.
Anyway, thanks in advance to any good stranger who can help out a fella here. Cheers. :)
@CaLaMiTy If you go to the "Magazine (FM)" tab (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1F3w3ag00gcOqRlFBjW21gwxpdsej0Kz1P8JBKu6F9_4/edit#gid=208941164) you'll have every chapter release under subscription, in the order that Fakku post them. First you have the release order number, then the name, author, the magazine where it was originally published, the type of content, the collection of which it's part (like part 1, 2, etc), and at last if it's available to be downloaded here or somewhere else (I won't say where, but it can be found digging a bit). So, with this info you can look for what you want. Let's say you want some serialization by MGMEE, you sort the authors column from A to Z and go where MGMEE is, and in the "#" column you'll see the release numbers (46, 216, 388, 395, 401, 722), so you'd have to search them in the "Fakku 1-1000" batch (/view/2305635)
[CaLaMiTy](/user/CaLaMiTy) I've never understood them either. So I just go to [HentaiNexus](https://hentainexus.com/) and hit the title and bam!! you're ready to launch your rocket. They usually upload it within few days after the batch is uploaded here.
@Andrew_Martin: Thank you good sir, for the quick reply. And apologies for my late one (because RL). I think I'm startin to get it now. So basically, to use DBMS terminology, the titles/releases are indexed by when they were POSTED by FAKKU. But instead of being represented by the dates of the posts, they're represented by an arbitrary integer numbering system, and that numbering system is what's being used by batch uploaders (or at least by @rbot2000) to identify their releases and to "declare" what's inside them. Then using the Google Docs as a sort of old-school phone directory, it'll guide you to which release number (kinda like a zipcode) your target-title currently resides in. Correct? Hmm, it's a bit of a strange system (not to mention inefficient), but at least I'm gettin it now. Like I've said before, our mindsets just need to get used to it, I guess; in fact, I'll go try it now, hah. But it's all thanks to that elaborate explanation of yours. So thanks again, lemme buy you a beer some time. :)
@BUSHMAN: Thanks also for the quick reply and that "Pro Tip" of yours, my good man, heh. I've actually "been" to HentaiNexus before, but I didn't realize (at least back then) that it's actually that good. Huh. Aight, I'll surely keep that advice of yours in my back pocket, just in case that... umm... "time is of the essence". ;)
Cheers, everyone!
@CaLaMiTy
What would be your ideal system?
@Andrew_Martin
That's too much effort.
That's why these sheets exist.
Differently Sorted (FY)
Maybe they need to be more obvious.
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vTU4hYfIj7xaRFydOSInBlKpUx9Wr0EmzwkeiBiTjAFihctqyA_QwEmwjOuzKtbFGiuM6WJcVpQt1WI/pubhtml
In THIS particular case? As in, with FAKKU's posts? I honestly don't know. Which is why I'm not complaining despite the difficulty. In an ideal scenario (where everything exists in isolation), I would obviously want a system based on the way we consume Western comics or Western-released mangas, wherein batch uploads are organized/sorted based on the publisher or the publication dates or even the title itself (if it's big enough like Batman,Spider-man,etc). So there wouldn't be any need to look things up in a directory; we'd just intuitively know which batch we'd wanna grab. But in this specific case, we just can't. Again using my previous example, even if somebody were to upload a batch torrent containing all the titles ever published by Kairakuten, I still wouldn't know that "Courting Étranger" was in there (UNLESS of course,I looked it up first,in the Google Doc directory). All the information I ever got from FAKKU (at least from that preview I saw) was that it was created by Homunculus, and I ain't too sure if anybody's gonna be uploadin a batch just based on Homunculus' works. So like I said, as hard as it is (at least for me & my friends) to keep going back and forth between the Docs and the many different batches on Sukebei, for EVERY single title we're interested in, it might just be the only Solution we've got. At least for now. I guess it's just one of those rare things in Life, where it's just not "translatable" from East to West, or even vice versa...
PS: BTW, thanks for those differently sorted sheets, good sir--I didn't even notice them before. And yes, they did help. :)
