You can earn/grind for free ink (currency to unlock the comic/novel chapters) by doing their free offers, and watching ads as well. I unlocked most of the comic that way. And like others said, every Monday they also give like 300+ Ink that last for a week.
If you're a NEW Tapas.io members, install the Tapas mobile app (iOS/Android) and use code: TURTLEYOU on the during registration for 500 free ink! Sometimes they also give free premium episodes unlock for new users, but only for mobile users
Tapastic hosts many awesome comics such as Gamer Cat and PhD Comics! It also hosts a lot of english-translated Korean comics if you're interested in that. Great app, pretty functional and great for reading comics offline.
From the FAQ:
> Tapas offers multiple ways of earning its ink (credits used to unlock premium chapters) for free: Monday’s Fortune Cookies, watching ads, referrals, app and games offers, reading events etc. Please support the creators if you enjoy their work, and avoid reading on illegal sites.
> If you’re new to Tapas, use the author’s invite code: TURTLEYOU on the Tapas app (iOS/Android) during registration for 500 free ink! Just enter the invite code in this page during registration.
Each comic chapter costs 315 ink with One-Tap. So the referral alone is enough, then every Monday they give out Fortune Cookies that give up to 1k Ink. The video ads also gives up to 300 ink which resets every hour, the app and game offers give 20-40k ink. And recently they have reading events that give out 200-300 ink for trying out new series. Personally I’ve unlocked the ALL the comic chapters with free ink alone.
Good to hear!

Tapas is the platform where the novel and comic are officially published on weekly. The novel chapters are then collected and edited into ebooks, which is the definitive edition and personally I recommend the ebooks over the weekly version (I’ve read both). They’re available on Amazon Kindle, Apple Books and Google Play Books.
Tapas is also responsible for making the novel into the Webtoon comic. They’re the one who hire and pay for everything. It’s the only place to read the English version of the comic, anywhere else is illegal and is considered piracy.
Like others has said, Tapas uses a coin/ink unlock system and you can either buy them or earn them for free. If you’re new to Tapas, use invite code:
TURTLEYOUon the Tapas app (iOS/Android) during registration for 500 free ink! Just enter the invite code in this page during registration.Both the novel and comic release on Fridays PST, Google the time for your own local time.
As for how many chapters are left, the author has estimated 10-11 books and we’re currently beginning book 9 (on Patreon), the books keep getting longer and longer so it’s hard to estimate the number of chapters left but we’re in the final part of the series.
> semi illegal
Wdym “semi”? It’s illegal.
Tapas lets you grind for free ink through ads, surveys and completing offers.
