How to Read a Bloodshedverse Story in KOReader
To read a Bloodshedverse story in KOReader, download the complete story as an EPUB with WP Downloader, copy the file to your device, and open it from KOReader’s file browser. EPUB downloads are free, and you do not need a Bloodshedverse account.
What you need
You will need:
- A link to a story on bloodshedverse.com
- Access to WP Downloader’s Bloodshedverse downloader
- A Kobo, PocketBook, Android device, or jailbroken Kindle running KOReader
- A way to copy the file to your device, such as USB or Android file transfer
KOReader is a free, open-source document reader that opens EPUB and PDF files. This guide uses EPUB because WP Downloader provides EPUB downloads to everyone without requiring sign-in.
KOReader must already be available on your device. Installing it on Kobo or Kindle is a separate, unofficial process.
Step 1: Copy the story link
Open the Bloodshedverse story you want to read. Its address should look like this:
https://bloodshedverse.com/stories.php?go=read&no=1234Copy the complete address from your browser. Use the story’s main reading link, since WP Downloader handles whole Bloodshedverse stories rather than individual chapters or story lists.
Step 2: Download the story with WP Downloader
Open the Bloodshedverse downloader and paste the story link into the box. WP Downloader will detect the site and prepare the complete story.
Choose EPUB as the output format. You can also choose whether to include the story’s images.
You do not need to sign in to Bloodshedverse. WP Downloader is a free web tool, with no program or browser extension to install.
WP Downloader can also create a PDF after a free Discord sign-in. KOReader opens PDF files, but the remaining steps use EPUB because it is available without signing in.
Bloodshedverse support was ported from FanFicFare, the open-source fanfiction downloader. See how to download Bloodshedverse stories for a general guide to the download process.
Step 3: Copy the EPUB to your device
After the download finishes, find the EPUB file on your phone or computer.
Kobo or PocketBook
Connect the device to your computer with USB and copy the EPUB onto it as you would any other ebook.
Remember where you put the file. You will need to find that location in KOReader’s file browser.
Kobo users can also read the guide to reading Bloodshedverse stories on Kobo.
Android
Copy the EPUB to your Android device using your usual file transfer method. Put it in a folder that you can find from KOReader’s file browser.
If you downloaded the EPUB directly to the Android device, you can leave it in the download folder and open that folder from KOReader.
Jailbroken Kindle
KOReader runs on Kindles that have been jailbroken. Copy the EPUB to the Kindle with USB, then find it through KOReader.
Installing KOReader or jailbreaking a Kindle is unofficial and outside the scope of this guide. To use the standard Kindle reading system instead, follow the guide to sending Bloodshedverse stories to Kindle.
Step 4: Open the story in KOReader
Open KOReader and use its file browser to find the folder containing the EPUB. Select the file to open the story.
The book is stored on your device, so you can read it without returning to Bloodshedverse in your browser.
WP Downloader does not add new chapters to an existing EPUB. If the story is updated, download it again to create a new copy with the available chapters.
