DMCA & Copyright

If your work shows up here without permission, send a complete notice. We act on valid claims — vague social posts without URLs are slow to process.

Rights holders

Creators, publishers, and authorised agents can ask us to remove or disable material they control. Email with the checklist below is the fastest path. Public complaints without exact links are hard to action.

Subject line: DMCA Notice. Wrong subject or missing fields may sit in queue while we ask you to fill them in.

Include all of this

  1. Your legal name and your relationship to the work (owner or authorised agent).
  2. Identification of the copyrighted work: title, author, ISBN, or official listing where available.
  3. Exact Mikasa URL(s) where the material appears. Series pages use mikasamanhwa.online/series/slug; add the chapter segment for specific episodes. Copy the address from your browser bar.
  4. Mailing address, phone number, and email where we can reach you.
  5. A statement that you believe in good faith the use is not authorised by the rights holder, its agent, or the law.
  6. A statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information is accurate and that you are authorised to act on the owner's behalf.
  7. Your physical or electronic signature.

What happens next

Complete notices usually get a reply within a few working days. We may remove or disable the listed URLs while we review. Incomplete notices or claims on work you do not control get sent back for correction — we will not guess.

Counter-notices

If you think content was removed by mistake, you may file a counter-notice with the information required under applicable law. Send it to the same address with subject line DMCA Counter-Notice. Valid counter-notices are forwarded to the original complainant as the process requires.

Repeat offenders

Sources that keep triggering valid removals may be blocked from the catalog when we can identify them technically.

Not legal advice

This page describes Mikasa's internal process, not legal counsel. If you are unsure whether you may send a notice, talk to a lawyer in your jurisdiction. For non-copyright questions, use contact or [email protected]. Reviewed 18 September 2026.
