"The end of 立ち読み (Tachiyomi) is the beginning of みほん (Mihon)"

There’s no legal basis to take it down.
Even when there’s no legal basis, a corporation is better prepared to potentially lose a legal battle than a bunch of amateurs are to potentially win it. It’s a form of corporate trolling - “both of us know that you’d win if you fought, but also that you won’t fight”.
That works fine if you’re a corporation dealing with one group that dares to stand between you and the money. But it fails if used over and over, as eventually one group will say “you want a bloody legal battle mate? We’re focking getting one.”
Quick scanning of the repo, Mihon didn’t host or even mention the extension to read external source. So it basically just an application platform. If Kodi still survive, I think this will too.
The mistake of tachiyomi is putting the extension to read piracy website together with the base application
