I think it would be nice to be able to automatically throw things into the "On Hold" or "Unifinished" column without having to first go --> Reading --> On Hold ---> Unfinished

Just a suggestion. I know it's no big inconvenience, but it doesn't make much sense to absolutely have to do those first 😛

I can see why it's a bit more difficult to place it on the unfinished list.
Seeing as the unfinished list is for mangas you decided to drop and never finish. It would be troublesome if I accidentally placed a manga on that list, instead of the one I wanted. (Which placing something in the wrong list does happen every once in a while)

Is there really that many mangas you drop where you need a faster way to get place the unfinished list?

Also you can always manually place it on that list.
Go to My lists -> Unfinished List -> Add series, type series name, add (many add bulk)

Yes yes, I know I make longwinded comments, but that's just me >.<
I should proof read my comments more, but I won't...
So keep in mind I'm filled with typos

Oohh. Ok. Yeah, personally i dropped a lot but never got around to adding them to dropped so i thought someone else would be like that too, but i didnt know the my lists thing existed, so that certainly makes it easier thank you 😀
