How do you think authors would react if they knew that gaijins were reading their stuff without paying official...

what a jew

Constant growth is globalist meme. Keep the white man and the chink out of your country nips!

A varied response i assume. I vaguely remember a couple of authors complaining on social media about it. Some porn authors have commented on exhentai when their stuff gets posted. On the other hand I've encountered author-approved unofficial translations of manga multiple times.

because they know it will never be released outside of Japan

Publishing is a business

Anytime you read a manganka or author in a foreign interview they are always surprised and don't understand why their works are popular overseas.

They hate it.

thats was the case 15 years ago

Assuming that they don't distribute their manga overseas in the language of the gaijins they shouldn't care at all.
