I voted "Good way to keep up with the manga releases"..
and POSTING REVIEWS on the mangas that I hate and Love~~as they say..it's "freedom of expression"..
Plus, the forum here is pretty active and have variety of threads. It's very impressive.

Well, i voted that the list is a good way to keep up with the manga, but when i first came to site i thought i could get all the manga i wanted here and i few mins into it i realized the latter . And then i found out that the database is awesome, i'm very impressed with Mangaupdates

My friend recommended me, but he did so because it is a good way to keep track of manga and find new ones.

First for the release updates (my vote), then the forums, then the database, then the lists...I think...it's been a while.

The release updates and database draw people in. The lists, filters, user reviews and forums convince them to register and stay.

I come here to keep track of what I've read what I am reading, to see updates, to find new things to read from your database.
I used to try and keep my lists on anime news network. But I ran into the problem of there being soo many mangas they didn't have in their database.
I really like this site, it's the best database I've found of what manga scanlations exist on the net.

I had always went to bakaupdates for anime episode release updates. One day I clicked on the link over here and saw this site worked almost the same way for manga. I started coming here regularly after that. I didn't join until I found out about filters (not lists).
