i use hosting sites for mine, like mangatraders and onemanga and such, since i cant figure out irc, and torrent is just as bad.

I used manga hosting sites till I learned how to use the IRC but then my parents told me I couldn't use the IRC because it would ruin the computer. So now I must go back to manga hosting sites till I can get my own computer.

I mostly rely on direct downloads from the scanlation group's website, but I have gotten a lot from IRC... Too bad I had to delete mIRC, though; it was killing my computer. ._.; I would use torrents, too, but I can't find 'em as often as I do direct downloads.

I get my manga mostly from manga hosting sites or the scanlation group's web.

I use torrents preferably, since i usually download big batches of manga,
i hate having to download volume by volume seperately, and even
worse, chapter by chapter.(although i have to many times )

Btw, i`m ashamed to say but i havent tried IRC yet.

IRC is still the best

It might be old school, but it is the fastest way to get new releases and huge quantities of manga.

I get manga off manga hosting sites. They're easy and free. It's just that I can't figure out IRC and Torrents

Another person who mostly gets it off scanlation sites. But, there is a lot that I buy to have in my hand. Also, trying to learn IRC so I can have access to so much more, though it is taking me quite a while....

manga from youtube . Maybe you mean anime?

Most of my manga come from manga hosting sites. I use IRC, but I'm a newb at it with a couple of months of irregular use vs. years of getting manga from manga hosting sites.

No, I meant manga cause i read a doujin once on there

Definitely most from IRC; torrents are good too but they tend to go dead pretty quickly. I get a few from group websites and hosting sites but pretty much only if I can't find them on #lurk, and I do buy quite a bit of manga as well.
