This is in reference to the poll re: "Do you have real-life friends with whom you share your hobby?"

You failed to include the following option:

No. But, friends and family know I read manga and their opinions are irrelevant and don't have a damn thing to do with my consumption of manga. It is just my hobby. Moreover, it is NOT my secret, guilty pleasure. It is my greatest pleasure. Outside, well, you know. 😁

Quote from saxenas1

Have you been inspired by a manga to take up any of the following sports? (multiple choice based...)

1. Soccer
2. Tennis
3. Golf
4. Badminton
5. Table Tennis
6. Baseball
7. Rugby
8. Go
9. Racing
10. Martial Arts
11. Cycling
12. etc...cant think of all sub sport genres.

I would love to, but we can't do multiple choice

Favorite sort of manga?

Sweet, cute little shoujo stories
Something funny and realistic
Something perverted... drool
Something fantasy
Shounen with lots of action and blood!

"Everything is okay in the end. If it's not ok, then it's not the end."

"I'm tired of all the nonsense about beauty being only skin-deep. That's deep enough. What else do you want; an adorable pancreas?" - Jean Kerr

When I said 'death' before 'dishonor', I meant alphabetically.

Imagine what would happen if there were no more hypothetical situations.

Do you know how to use IRC?

1. Yes, that's my preferred way of downloading manga.
2. Yes, but I rarely use it to download manga.
3. Yes, but I rarely use it at all.
4. No, but I would like to learn.
5. No and I have no interest in learning how.
6. IR-What?

What do you think of fanservice (panty shots, etc.) when the manga is not even labeled as ecchi?

• Eh? It's my main reason in reading a series...
• Bonus! Yeah!
• Don't care as long as the manga is good...
• Turn off

Guys I requested a new poll for my research.

this is what I had in mind:

Poll: What aspect of translation is more important to you?

• Accuracy: I like manga translation to retain characteristics of the language of the original, to show the linguistic and cultural differences between Japanese culture and my own.

• Fluency: I like manga translation to read as if the author was native English speakers, so that linguistic and cultural differences are minimized.

Hey, here is my idea
When reading romance manga, do you prefer
-Seinen
-Shounen
-Shoujo
-Josei
-Other
Thanks for consideration
-Ser

"I'm the Chaos that always crawls up to you with a smile, Nyarlathotep!"
-Nyarko (Haiyoru! Nyarko-san)

What love-story do you like the best?

• Yaoi
• Yuri
• Lolicon
• Shotacon
• Genderbender
• Regular One Guy/One Girl Romance
• Harem

What kind of role you want to play the most

-Super villain
-Super hero
-Anti hero
-Criminal mastermind
-Secret hero
-Idol
-Normal carefree high school student
-Master of martial art
-Athlete
-Artist
-Doctor
-Professor
-Detective
-Police, army, or special force
-Hitman
-Ninja
-Non-human creature (devil, angel, monster, alien, etc.)
-Sword master
-Royal family (King, Queen, Prince, Princess)
-Spy
-Traitor
-Loyal servant

Quote from nowyat

That might be a good poll too. Are you hard or easy when site's ask you to rate mangas, on a scale of one to ten I usually give... (then list the numbers one through ten...). I think that would be the best version for a poll on this, or

1. I give everything a high rating if it's just okay. I like to be nice.
2. I give mainly good ratings, saving the highest and lowest for extreme cases.
3. I am a tough rater and only give out the highest rating a few times in my life.

I rate things ten too easily, then I feel bad when I read something amazing and have to rate it the same way I did some mediocre thing. ;P But it's hard the other way too, if I grade reviews tougher, like give a seller a four instead of five on Amazon, it makes them look bad when they did an average but respectable job. sigh... I shouldn't have started thinking about this.

Have you already done a poll on how much time people spend on manga-related activities (reading, browsing, discussing, scanlating, Cosplay, Conventions etc.)?
If not, you could ask something along these lines:

How much time do you spend on manga-related activities?

• less than 2 hours per week
• 2-5 hours per week
• 5-10 hours per week
• 10-20 hours per week
• 20-30 hours per week
• more than 30 hours per week
• Don't know.

If you have more/ other suggestions for possible answers, feel free to add them.
