When searching through manga, I sometimes want to go through each entry individually, but it's a little inconvenient to go back to your search and find the next link, especially if you're going through a lot of titles. I tend to click the same link because I forget where I was...

I was wondering if you guys could make a "Next Series" link and "Previous Series" link alphabetically on the series info pages to navigate more quickly.

And afterwards maybe customize it for the year, rating, "Other Site Sections," or "Advanced Search."

why not use the feature 'open in new tab'
There's always a bracket around the link which you last clicked in the original tab

I was going for a little more convenience, but I guess it is kind of overwork for Lamb. I still tend to lose my spot going back however, I guess I overlook it due to lack of sleep. :/ Meh, it was worth a shot!

Why do you need this function?
If you just hold the 'Ctrl' button down while clicking on the series, and the series opens in a new tab.

also, the thing you ask would be nice, but I think this won't be possible software wise. 🙁

Sometimes at night when I don't feel like sleeping, I'll go through Manga Updates and add series to my potential reads lists. I read a lot of the suggestions, but they've been getting repetitive so I go through series individually, sometimes alphabetically and sometimes under a genre or tag.

For me, opening tabs gives me the same result.. ctrl+link and "open link in new tab" don't leave a bracket around the last link I clicked, so in the end I still end up losing my place. I use Chrome, I don't know if it's the same for Firefox.

I don't think it'll be impossible to do this. Actually, just making a general, alphabetically categorized link to navigate from one series to the next should be fairly doable. However the extra stuff about customizing would be tedious, and if they do pass my first suggestion people might start asking more for the search-specific links.

But like I said, I'm just asking. Since it seems no one has asked for this before, I guess it's just a luxury and no one else really cares too much... :/
