In case it hasn't been done before...

If you could live inside of a manga world, which genre would you live in?

Categories could be limited from those presented in the website itself like:
Action
Gender Bender
Comedy
Romance
Slice of Life
Fantasy
or whatever sounds decent.

Quote from Astrowoud

Is avatar the last Airbender an anime or cartoon?

-What is this for question? Of course this is anime!

-Are you crazy? It’s obviously a cartoon!

This one is inspired by the typical creepy pasta of the severed hand that chases you.

You can make a wish , but if you make it, someday an immortal snail will start chasing you. It knows where you'll be and how to get there. Anything it touches dies.

You make the wish.
You make a wish with the snail in mind.
You don't make the wish.

In honour of the student/teacher relationship so common in manga, how about ‘have you ever had a crush on a teacher?’. I’d be curious to know whether this is actually a thing, since I’ve never heard of it happening (but nor have I had any hot teachers).

Weird, there has never been a pet poll. So here goes...

Do you have a pet?

  • Dog(s)
  • Cat(s)
  • Bird(s)
  • Fish
  • Rodents (mouse, squirrel, guinea pig, etc.)
  • Reptiles (snake, lizard, turtle, etc.)
  • Insects/arachnids
  • Farm animals (chicken, horse, pig, goat, etc.)
  • Multiple types
  • (Currently) No pets

I'm surprised we never had this either

Does the reputation of the recruiting company matter to you?

Saw a discussion about people blacklisting Facebook.

How do you feel about translations that are heavily localised (i.e., where it makes sense, the character speech uses colloquialisms in your language)?

How do you feel about translations that use a lot of colloquialisms?

⚪️ It sounds cool! I wish it was done more often
⚪️ I like it, but I don't want its usage become widespread
⚪️ I don’t really care for it, but it does suit some manga better
⚪️ I don’t like it, I wish all translations would just stay completely literal

And related to the last post:

What is your feeling about how translation should generally be performed?

⚪️ Concisely, translating the overall meaning but not necessarily in a literal way
⚪️ Literally, favouring a verbatim translation over a more effective understanding
⚪️ Context-wise, modifying some meanings so that all readers can understand more easily

What was your 1st childhood game console manufacturer? Or, what console was your 1st video game played on?

  • Commodore 64
  • Sega (genesis, Dreamcast, etc.)
  • Atari (2600, 5200, etc.)
  • Nintendo (NES, SNES, 64, game cube, game boy, etc.)
  • Sony (PlayStation)
  • Microsoft (XBOX)
  • PC (Steam, GOG, or CD ROM games)
  • other
  • I don't play video games

I removed one poll as it's irrelevant now. I was gonna replace with "what time zone do you live in?" but realized that would be too many questions!

Quote from Afiaki

What do you think about scanlation groups continuing a series if it becomes licensed / gets an official translation? Should fan scanlation continue if an official release becomes available?

⚪️  Yes, it's not a problem
⚪️ No, it's unacceptable / unethical
⚪️ If the official release is too slow, then yes
⚪️ Only if the official release is not available online
⚪️ It's okay so long as the scanlation release has a lower image quality

This, but with less nuance

If you were ever "isekaid", would you rather become...

  1. The main protagonist
  2. The villain
  3. A mob character

(Are there too few options?)

Alternatively:

If you could be "isekaid", would you?

  1. Absolutely
  2. Never
  3. Only if I can return to my original world

Alternatively part 2:

If you were ever "isekaid", you would prefer to be...

  1. Reincarnated into the character's body
  2. Summoned as yourself

Not sure if anyone has done these before, but just going through my isekai phase right now lol.

I'd also add a "live action" option.
