I thought these were all really great questions. Especially 'do you identify with the main character' because for me that is the big thing. Keep up the good polls! (The cliche question is good too!) If I made a poll here it would be the following, (though not manga related) I love polls...

Are you an Obsessive/Compulsive Disorder person or a slob? Recently someone accused me of OCD, but I was more flattered than offended. 😉

I am obsessively neat.  
The battle between the two stages of life rages violently in my soul.  
I am a slob living with a neat person and deal with it.  
I am a neat person living with a slob and deal with it.  
I have never even thought about this.  
I am a slob.  
I have to post my thoughts about whether I am a neat or messy and what that means, philosophically.

(I think being neat or messy says a lot about how we approach manga... 😉 )

P.S. Yet another good poll idea below. 🙂 A hard choice, but I definitely gotta go with 'fu-fu-fu'.

Quote from zanne459

how about ..

how much does identifiying with the main characters influence what you read?

i only read manga with people exactly like me in
i often read manga with people abit like me in them
i read manga with mix of charater types some like me, some not
i like reading about people completly un-like myself
it dosent affect my choice

or you could have the same question with situations instead of characters.

or

how much does cliche put u off reading a manga?
not at all - i love it
abit but ill chance it
completly - i try to read only original situations
dont mind either way.

are you embarased by the nerdy image that reading manga in public brings?
not at all
abit
alot but i do it anyway
im a secret manga reader

do you chat to other people browsing the manga/anime sections the same time as you?
yes they obviously share an intrest of mine
depends of gender
depends on age
no they might be buying for a freind or relative
no im not intrested

Quote from Hellsayer

What do you think of game adaptions of anime and vice versa?

Love them
Like them
It depends on the quality
hate them
don't like them
don't do the adaptions
don't care

If your life was a manga, what genre would you (want to) characterize it as?

Shounen/Shoujo
Seinen/Josei
Action
Romance
Horror/Mystery
Slice of Life
Fantasy/Supernatural

How about reversing the current criteria:

"Opinion on manga adaptations of movie/game/anime/novel/etc"

I enjoy all of them
Must follow the same, exact story
Only good if it is a Spin-off
I only read/watch/play the original one (first published)
I only read manga

If you don't like the first chapter/episoed in an anime/manga, what do you do?

• I drop it!
• I try another ch/ep, maybe it gets better
• Once I have started I read/watch it till the end

Sorry if this was already done

Where do you read manga?

In bed
a cozy chair
In the living room / den
At the library
At my computer
At the park

This is something that I do and I've always been curious to know if others do it to...

Do you compare scanlation translations to the official ones?

Yes
No
Sometimes
No, but I might next time.

Definately "Horror/Mystery". My life is Kafka-esque. Other polls were good too! If I don't like the first chapter, I read the last chapter and find out what happened before giving it up. I read manga at the computer and in the bathtub. (P.S. Don't use a laptop in the bathtub, you will die. Read books, they just get wet.) Lastly, I ALWAYS compare scanlations to the book version. The online translators are usually better, because they understand the material and love it. I could list some remarkable examples.

do you approve with leaving Japanese Honorifics (-san, -chan, etc) in translations?
-yes
-no
-depends

**what should be most important to an author writing a book? **
-what he wants?
-what (his) readers want?

Do you think we should add a Dystopian genre catagory to our website?

Lately i've been seeing alot of web comics around:

What do you think of webcomics?
Love them
like them
no opinion
hate them
depends on the series

and also which do you prefer?
manga (japanese comics)
Manhwa (Korean comics)
manhua (chinese comics)
American comics
other

those are more or less what i can think of right now
