Getting NXDOMAIN when using pihole as my exclusive dns lookup server

Everything is installed normally with no customization, disabled unbound upstream lookup. I cannot find some websites using my pihole as my dns lookup server. I checked other posts and none of them answered or resolved my problem. I disabled unbound, used google dns, and used my own ISP's dns as my upstream to no avail.

Expected Behaviour:

When looking up some websites like manga4like.com it should load properly and show the query with an IP address in my pihole query log.

using pihole as the 1st dns server and my local dns server as the 2nd dns server I can open the website properly (does not show in my pihole query log)

Even though I setup my local dns server as my upstream dns server in pihole

Actual Behaviour:

When looking up some websites like manga4life.com using pihole as the only dns server I get OK and NXDOMAIN
