These are used to run the adult gate and the serial reader. They are not used for advertising.
| Name | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
mantis_age_gate (cookie + local storage mirror) | Remembers that you completed the date-of-birth gate for this browser. | Up to ~400 days (cookie Max-Age); refresh if you clear cookies. |
mantis_chronicle_unlocked (cookie) | Stores the highest linear-reader part you may open under the scroll-to-advance rules. | Up to ~2 years as configured on the site. |
If you choose Essential only in the cookie banner, we do not load Google Analytics and we do not read or write the preference keys below. If you choose Accept all, GA4 runs in your browser and may set its own cookies; preferences use local storage on your device only. Nothing in this group is sold.
| Name / pattern | Purpose | Storage |
|---|---|---|
mantis-theme (and legacy key) | Light or dark reading theme. | localStorage until you clear it. |
mantis-font-scale (and legacy key) | Reader text size step. | localStorage until you clear it. |
mantis_bookmarks | List of serial parts you bookmarked in the catalogue. | localStorage until you clear it. |
mantis-likes-… | Optional per-entry like deltas for the on-page counter. | localStorage until you clear it. |
mantis_cookie_consent | Records whether you chose “all” or “essential” so we do not keep showing the banner. | localStorage until you clear it or use “Withdraw” below. |
_ga, _gid, _ga_* (Google) | Google Analytics 4 (measurement ID G-RR9J5QGSP0) — page views and related metrics. Set only when
you have chosen Accept all; see Google’s cookie information.
| Per Google’s defaults (often up to 2 years for _ga); clear via browser or by switching to Essential only and reloading. |
You can change your mind at any time. Withdrawing consent reloads the site; optional preferences will no longer be read or written until you accept again.
Use your browser’s settings to remove cookies and site data for this domain. That removes age and reader cookies too — you will see the gates again on your next visit.
