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.

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.

-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

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

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.

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?
