Title changes on MU?
(2 posts, 761 views) Posted: 9 months ago by achyif in Manga General
Why are the Korean and Chinese titles changed to the official English title once licensed while the Japanese ones get changed to the romanization instead of the official English title? The wild thing is Korean and Chinese have way more consistent romanizations than Japane...

New Poll - Comments Section
(14 posts, 2058 views) Posted: about 1 year ago by achyif in News
Comments are unbelievably important for series with very few views, otherwise you feel like you're just posting into the void with zero impact.
For popular stuff with a lot of comments it's fun.

New Poll - Machine Translations

As someone who has tried them and then had someone who actually knows japanese translate the text, hate them. They're completely unreliable and will butcher the meaning, no matter how much you pretty it up with proper grammar.

I'll just add that I have a strong suspicion that bato.to and its "batoto scans" (which are most definitely affiliated despite denying any connection) is run (or was acquired) by one of large Chinese players attempting to break into the English marke...

What criteria do you consider while rating or reviewing a manga?
(9 posts, 1060 views) Posted: over 2 years ago by achyif in Manga General
Primarily how much i enjoy it, but also a bit of how likely I'll read it again and how likely I'll suggest it to others

New Poll - Family vs Friends
(29 posts, 1589 views) Posted: over 2 years ago by achyif in News
family can fuck you over.... but so can friends. They both can be very good to you too.
How could I decide? They both take very important but different roles in my life! One cannot fully replace the other.

True. You can refer to the salary poll from 2019 (recent enough) and see that the results track that much more closely than by age.

They're terrible! Not because I can't stand interruptions, interruptions are fine. But because 99% of the time they're genuinely... terrible. I wouldn't mind a good one.

New Poll - Chapter Length

My favorite series has chapters that range in length from 20 pages up to 70 pages. So... However number of pages are needed to tell the story, not too much nor too little. In the end, it doesn't matter how many pages there are, it matters what the author fills them with. ...

It's real people that make real fights interesting, but realistic fights themselves are boring. I'll go with unrealistic.

How Scanlations impact manga licensing statue

Oh yeah definitely I think scanlations will prevent manga from being licensed.
However, I also really think manga would never be remotely popular without scanlations, and publishers will sell more manga because people read free stuff online and buy manga. But on the other ...

Just to clarify: mangadex definitely does not make a grand and a half a day off their site. They're probably making only a few hundred a month, and most of that money goes straight back into hosting and server costs.
