We all know and love the type of manga that we hate (that even make sense?...)
Go ahead and post more options than what the current poll gives!

Question: What type of manga are you sick of reading?

Harem (ENOUGH!! I have enough trouble getting ONE!) - votes: 1705 (16.1%)
Endless Fighting (Just beat the crap out of each other and end it already!) - votes: 1572 (14.9%)
Unrequited Romance (How long does it take for two people to get together?!) - votes: 2044 (19.4%)
Generic Sports (Wait, didn't i read this one already? No, they're ALL the same!!!) - votes: 1196 (11.3%)
Guy-ALWAYS-gets-girl (We need a time where he's rejected...for good...) - votes: 950 (9%)
Long drawn out plot (Inuyasha anyone?) - votes: 3094 (29.3%)
There were 10561 total votes.
The poll ended: July 19th 2008

i dont like endless fighthin...i mean u fight the person...he comes bak and fights again and again and again...jus kill the guy already and stop repeating over and over by lettin him leave alive...

i like romance but sometimes i jus get pissed about unrequited love cuz if u love the person tht much and for tht long...than jus go ask them out...dam its not like its life or death...jus ask and see wat happens...they will say yes or no and u dont hav to be tht depressed and like die jus cuz u got rejected. i hate tht...one example is I"s...i like the manga but sometimes i jus wanna hit tht guy...for wat he does.

i really hate long drawn out plot...Inuyasha is perfect example i think...i hope bleach and naruto dont turn into tht...lol


ps---Happy Birthday to Lambchpsil biggrin

All of them.

I voted the guy-always-gets-the-girl. Yea, I'd love to see someone getting rejected.

Is it just me, or are all these options very "shounen-ish"? =/

I hate it when the lead can't decide who they like. It's one of the main reasons I don't read many Shoujo series.

It just bugs the crap out of me when a girl (or guy) can't decide who they like. It's fine if they flip, and suddenly realize their first crush is an ass, but I can't stand it if they have 5 different people they're crushing on at the same time. D:<

Not even harem mangas do that.

Yes, there's definitely a shounen/seinen bias to a lot of these options. But I'm used to that. And maybe it's because almost all shoujo falls under the third option (unrequited romance)

I most dislike harem (and reverse harem too) setups, but because I generally just don't read those to begin with, I'm not sick of them. So I chose unrequited romance, because a lot of manga I read do have that (or a couple who obviously likes each other, but neither dares to say so, and so it never goes anywhere), and it's annoying. I'd like more manga that expands on the "happily ever after" part rather than ending as soon as the characters finally get together.

I voted for "Generic Sports", but that is more because I hate them in general but the ones i realy can't stand and tend to just stop reading are the ones that have like 5 ch for one small explainatlon. All the time it just slowes down the story and you forget were you were. The best exampel I can think of now is "Samurai Deeper Kyo" i didn't get very fare in it and it was like 50% of the time, just explainatlon things that happened in the past "Naruto" can get like that too at times.

i voted for long drawn out plot. YES like inuyasha some mangas drg on for ages. i hate when say a couple of hours lasts 5 chapters! why?!
my next choice would have been unrequited love which is similar to long plot. you are reading waiting for something to happen, for them to finally get together and then suddenly an ex appears and we're back to the beginning no

If only I could vote for every option.
Oh well, any manga is better than a drawn out one.

I couldn't vote for anything in the poll. I either don't mind the choices (endless fighting, unrequited romance) or stay away from that type of manga in the first place (just about every thing else).

I voted harem, but there are a lot of things I hate.
I pretty much hate anything that a shonen or a shojo
manga might contain.
Btw, I think that the new poll kicks the lower
part of the layout off its place.

I voted for long drawn out plot because I hate the extra crap they add that no one cares about

I also think generic sports are almost as irritating as the super long plot how times can you read about a down and out team become the champs come on lets see them not win

I don't really hate any, I simply switch genres when I'm tired of reading one of the poll's choices.
