Best Answer

When a manga is licensed it means that it's no longer available in a raw form; meaning that as soon as the new Japanese/Korean chapter is available, it's illegal to translate it and post it online. You'll just have to buy the English manga, where as a big batch of different titles such as Naruto and Fullmetal Alchemist have been licensed.
