About Dynasty-Scans
Dynasty-Scans® (http://dynasty-scans.com) was founded in 2005 by Wyvern_D (editor), Co_ol (translator) and ChronoXVIII (editor, proofreader) in order to pick up Pastel™. The group started with only one project but quickly expanded the number of series, favoring shoujo-ai and manga with kickass artwork. quincy lead the group until July 2006. At that point, Casusby jumped in and since then, has ruled over dynasty-scans as its supreme leader (much like Kim Jong Il). In August 2009, the flagship project was dropped due to disinterest by the staff, leading Dynasty-Scans® to focus to settle on yuri and some fringe series. The Dynasty Reader®, launched in 2009, provided a central location for yuri manga online. By 2012, the Dynasty Reader® had become the face of the group, transforming the way at least 10 people read manga.

I was really horrified for like 2 minutes until I looked at my clock. This is one of the best April 1st's ever.

Note: Premium accounts will become available on April 2nd due to a bug in our system. Starting tomorrow downloads will only be available to users who upgrade to atleast a Spitting Distance™ account in our secure DSM format, as advertised above.

well played

I want to delete my account. I won't pay a single cent to this site to read yuri like I always used to. I'm sorry if this is a lack of respect towards the staff, scanlators and users here. But this was the ultimate dimb update that made me want to delete my account. I don't know how to do it here, so I would be glad if a staff member were so kind to do it for me. I'm not planning to ever come back, just so you know. You lost one of your readers here.

I'm sure we lost a bit of something.

That sounds like sarcasm :D

LOL! You guys are good. Seriously scared me for a minute there.

You...are evil... I was so bloody scared. I have never been the subject of a more terrifying April fool's move. (Did once see a guy break down in tears reading a fake university expulsion letter, that was worse, I suppose...)
