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 😀

I come for a variety of reasons, to get the updates on the releases, look for different manga in the database, and the forum is great~
(And Yesh! My poll got chosen<3)

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.

The release updates.
The lists.

All to make our manga reading lives so much better. ♥

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).
