Using keyword "manga" to search on Google and find another one, that's it.
I am sure you read the rules and understand we don't promote piracy on this site.

Actually OneManga was one of 30 major illegal scanlation sites that was shut down.

The information may be available somewhere, but the sweet irony is that the scanlators feel a certain possession of their "work" and are picky about where it is posted. (Isn't that hilarious?) So many of them realizing that their hard-earned work is not appreciated by fans or by the actual creators and artists. Publishers don't hire scanlators, either. (That's the big lie).

Here's another great link about Japanese artist Twitterers and scanlation:
