Based on the ad, it seemed like the service would be at least partially free. nothing I tapped on was free. there isn't very much to tap on anyway, and if Overprotective Butler is anything to go by, at least some of them either utilize AI or terrible voice actors. That one just sounded too mechanical in the preview. I couldn't confirm it without a subscription. Nice that they say cancel anytime, but that doesn't mean a satisfaction refund. I'm too poor to play guessing games with subscriptions.

Hi Steven! Our server provider was 100% down for a few hours - we and thousands of websites/apps were down during that time. You can try it again everything is working!

This is a ripoff, you don't even get full series. I watched the duke is a thug, which is also on webtoons as a manhwa for free, and comparing the two, shortcat is missing whole parts of the story compared to what I read on webtoon. I didnt see Shortcat giving any credit to the author, and the voices are done by AI. Do not give this app money, it a waste.

We are the creators of The Duke is a Thug, both the manhwa and the anime. The anime season 1 is shorter than the currently available manhwa version because it has not been adapted yet. And the rest of the story will only be pursued as an anime since the distributors of the manhwa are the ones ripping us off. Also EN Dubbing is voice actors.

the ads are scams .They won't let you log into the app without creating your account and yeah btw nothing here is free as the ads say . It's a scam . To watch just an episode they ask us to pay .
