I'm not sure if this has been done before. I just thought of it now:
Do you have a favorite scanlation group? If so, how many?
Yes, one
Yes, a few
Yes, 10+
No

What is the worst sin a mangaka can commit?
1. Kill off the main character.
2. Have two characters that look so alike you confuse them.
3. Draw the same faces over and over on different characters in different mangas.
4. Discontinue the story right in the middle, leaving it unfinished.
5. Divert the plot away from the main characters. boring...
6. Have characters step OOC and talk about the manga.
7. Copy another mangakas art or story line.
8. Being too formulaic.
9. Being too iconoclastic.
10. A plot that makes no sense with plot holes and bad dialogue.
Just offering it out there for people to improve on... It's too wordy and I'm sure other people have their pet peeves to add too.
(\ _/)
(O.o) Copy The Bunny Into Your Sig
(> <) Help Him Achieve World Domination...
OR...
Do you have trouble switching from manhwa back to manga? Or do you try to read an English book from the back? It all messes with my head.
1. I adjust seamlessly to the format before me.
2. It takes a few chapters before I can make sense of a change. Left, right, uh...up, down, wait...
p.s. I think they are all great suggestions! The stereotypes one was expecially good. But they are all good. Glad I don't have to choose.

Mangastream, the one group that did the top Jump series while trying to be fair for the authors was made to stop releasing those, how do you feel about it ?
-Betrayed
-"serves you right, leecher"
-I feel nothing since I'm just going to take it from some other group
-Viz Media's release speed is low, they are sore losers...
-Was expecting it
-I don't read those
here, that's all I could think about...

Kannagi.
the answer is hint, that the girl, may have at one time, in a former incarnation, with a former body been with a different guy. = Death threat offense.
NTR is the short term, but any possibility of anything close to NTR and yeah, thats clearly the worst that could be done.

Do you think there will someday be a bunch of ninety year-old manga and anime fans, watching or reading stuff in the rest home, or is it something everyone grows out of?
1. I'll love it forever, as long as I have internet or library access, anyway...
2. I'll probably become interested in other things and move on.
