What anime/manga
fan do you consider yourself as?
-eg: Weeb, otaku, fujoshi, etc.

Using anime subtitles to translate manga (or manga scanlations to translate anime) is...

-Perfectly acceptable, as long as it's accurate
-Kinda lazy, but it's efficient
-Unacceptable, because it's copying stuff that other people have worked hard on

Got the idea for this poll after picking up a manga series right after watching the anime adaptation; I noticed many lines in the manga were identical to the anime's subtitles, which leads me to believe one group copied from the other.

If I've made a thread in the "I'm Looking For..." forum, I am only interested in Japanese manga. I am not interested in non-Japanese media at this time.

Okay, I would like to suggest a poll that would create some controversies in the thread (lol)
I apologise beforehand if this suggestion has been covered.

Great era for manga/anime:

• The beginning (50-60s) e.g: Astro Boy, Speedracer, Kimba the Lion, GeGeGe no Kitarō
• The trendsetter (70s) e.g: Doraemon, Galaxy Express 999, Lupin III, Cutie Honey
• The classics (80s) e.g: Dragon Ball, Captain Tsubasa, Gundam, Jojo
• The state-of-the-art (90s) e.g: Slam Dunk, Rurouni Kenshin, Sailor Moon, One Piece
• The millennia (2000s) e.g: Fullmetal Alchemist, Death Note, Ouran High School
• The follow-up (2010s) e.g: some fan-service/media social type of manga & anime 😁 - Not really sure

Some might disagree with series like Doraemon or Lupin III which start during the 60s, but I think the series were heavily distributed during the suggested era.

Feel free to edit my "nicknames" for the era or anything.

Your choice when you’re offered Immortality?

-Yes, even if there are strings attached (i.e. vampirism, curses, etc.)
-No, if there are strings attached
-Yes, if it includes no aging
-No, if it means I keep getting older endlessly
-Yes, if I could choose to die at any point I want, just not naturally
-No, if I couldn’t die even if my life was a living nightmare (disease, injury, torture)

Quote from residentgrigo

Let´s discuss the animation process itself, now that the current poll is technically about that. Limited Animation is a fact of life for let´s say 95-99% of all anime but does that bother you?

Limited Animation = Limited Art?
Let´s assume that an anime´s story is good or well adapted but the animation itself is overall average to bad or barely on model. Is this a dealbreaker?

I can easily overlook it
I can overlook it if the keyframes and/or art direction are good
I can overlook it if the sound design and/or the voice actors are good
Both the keyframes and the sound design need to be good
I only mind in extreme cases
Limited Animation is always an issue for me

Keyframes? Really?

Don't know is this has been done so use it if you can. Re-word it to if you want

Which is favorite type of manga/anime heroine?

Strong and smart from beginning to end
Weak/submissive from beginning to end
Strong but an idiot/airhead from beginning to end
Weak but becomes strong from beginning to end
Smart but physically weak from beginning to end
Strong/submissive from beginning to end

Not sure if this has been done. Feel free to change answers as I didn't come up with very good ones.

Who knows about your love of manga?
Only me
My significant other
A few close family members and/or friends
Most of my family and friends
Anyone who knows me

When a scanlator leaves a customized message at the end of each chapter (ex: commentary, next release date, questions, etc.) do you read them and/or respond to them?
Yes
Maybe/Sometimes
No
I never seen those

Keyword here is customized, I want distinguish this from credit/recruitment pages, which are pretty static between chapters. (Though I suppose they COULD put the message in the credit page, a good example of this is Haritoge Kuremi to Ou no Ie)

Do you read others' manga suggestions to other people in "I'm Looking For..." section?
-Yes, I find new manga to read even better than looking for them at recommendation section.
-Yes, but they often don't suit my taste.
-No, I only read what others recommend only if I ask in forum.
-No, I don't bother looking at other people's questions or answers.
-Is that section exist?

Got the idea because I find many hidden jewel on "I'm Looking For..." section from reading people's questions and answers (not mine).

Feel free to modify the question or choices, thanks.

Favorite thing for a chapter’s Scanlation credit page to have:

-group news
-original artwork
-translation notes
-something comedic

Opinion of sequel/s when the original is still ongoing? (Usually set in the far future from the original)

-Horrible idea, spoilers for the original even if minor
-Great idea, new story same style/formula
-Confusing, hard to keep the details straight
-other?
