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 🤣
does doujiinshi count?
if not then I could last for 1-2 months...
if yes than less than a week
yah.. big difference =D

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.
An instant or an eternity. Both are the same, in the passing of an instant lies the beauty of eternity.

i am terribly addicted......can go on for more than a day....i keep having bad dreams when all manga will dissapear .....and will have to wait an eternity for shitty subs from VIZ and TOKYOPOP that takes eternity .......i brought a comic RATMAN from tokyopop ....i took months to arrive and with shitty translations i couldnt get into......i guess i am more used to the way scantalators do it..
best shonen manga couples :
shinichi X ran
natsu X erza
ippo X kumi
naruto X gaara
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.
I read so much mangas, I'm too lazy to watch anime! 😛 😛 😛
