It's the same as quitting smoking, I could do it anytime but I don't want to...
Picked "A few days" for that reason (also, I might be lying to myself with the above statement, at least with the cigarettes...)

I said a few months but it could be a year or even forever. I like manga but I do have other hobbies as well as school and I am very skilled at self-control so I could easily go without manga for multiple years. No manga is really essential to read, so it's not like it will have a big effect on your life. Even though I can stop I don't really want to because manga is enjoyable to read.

This is tricky poll, for me it depends on the situation.
For my normal situation (at home), i open manga everyday.
But there's a time that i must go to another city for few days or a month,
there as long as internet connection exist, i still read manga.

Lol, I don't know why I voted for 'a month' when I have lasted a few months with no manga, and it was voluntarily.
But probably sometime next year when I quit manga, I'll do it forever though, no going back. :>
But I guess quitting isn't as easy as it seems to be. XD

Months, still the more time it passes, the more stuff it piles, isn't that good?

Erm, well if I was answering this last year, I would probably say less than a day but I haven't been reading a lot of manga recently. I don't read manga everyday anymore. I could probably go for a month. I managed 3 - 4 weeks without it once when I went on holiday. It can be done, it's not a problem.
It just gets troublesome because I have to go through a months worth of updates and it's tedious trying to catch up

i am sort of a manga download addict. i could go without reading manga for weeks but couldn't go without downloading everyday releases for even just one day. sort of a collector than a strict reader.

Probably a month, I'd like to say I could quit when I wanted to but honostly I don't think I could. It's wishful thinking to say otherwise. It's at my fingertips, the temptation would be to much after so long.

If something else keeps my mind off it then I can stay off it for a couple months, but usually I can go a month without it at most.

Actually i don't really know i read at least 1 chapters a day but i usually read manga only when i'm really bored and that happen often lol.
If i could find something else to remplace manga i think i could live forever without reading manga.

It depends.
Maybe for a few days, when I wanted or have to do things.
