What do you think is the best way to do an anime adaptation of a long and currently ongoing series?
-A single constantly airing anime with filler, recaps and delays to stay behind the the source material (example: One Piece)
-One individual anime with sequel animes/seasons when there is enough new material (example: Hajime no Ippo)
-Individual animes with reboots of a longer length (with more material) every few years (example: Hunter x Hunter)

Quote from Nekomikoto
When a group continues a series that was previously worked on by someone else, how should they handle the spelling consistencies of names/fictitious proper nouns in a series?
*Always spell it the same way as the previous group, even if it is incorrect
*Have them spell it their own way and leave a note indicating the change
*Have them spell it their own way and let the readers figure out who/what they are referring to
*No preference

Thoughts on groups that skip chapters (eg. Ch 6 release and next release is Ch 10 then the release after is Ch 8)?
-why??
-Hateful.
-eh, its whatever
-never encountered it
-it is necessary evil for the sanity of the scanlation group
Any other opinions here lol
Thoughts on groups that 'stake claims' to mangas by translating the prologue/first chapter but leaves the series untranslated after months?
-why??
-Hateful.
-eh, its whatever
-never encountered it
-it is necessary evil for the sanity of the scanlation group
Same opinions as above LOL
Feelings on teaser chapters/preview pages?
-Don't read them
-SPOILERS
-they're fun

Regardless of context and a character's sex, when does ecchi content "go to far"?
- There is no such thing, show me everything
- Sex is fine as long as their privates are not shown
- Anything more detailed than the basic outlines of the act is too vulgar
- Nudity is fine, but sex is too much
- No actual details of the character's body should allowed
- Nothing bare should be shown that's below the waist
- Underwear should be as far as it goes
- "Skimpy" outfits should be as far as it goes
- Characters should be wearing (regular) clothes all the time
- ANY part of the skin and body showing is complete heresy
And, as a follow-up:
Regardless of context, when does violent content "go to far"?
- There is no such thing, show me everything
- Only outline the gore and don't go into the details
- Blood and death is fine, but no internal organs should be show
- Do not show any death, but blood is fine
- Don't show ANY blood, but the characters can be bruised
- Cartoon violence (I.E. Loony Tunes) should be where it ends
- Any and all amounts of violent content shouldn't be allowed

How do you feel about authors adding onto a story (with extra chapters/omakes/spinoff) after the series had officially come to an end?
Its great! Will read it.
I enjoy them, only if the main characters are the same.
No opinion
I hate it, adds nothing new to the story.
Cool, but I won't be reading it.

-Amazon
-Apple
-Disney
-Google
-Wal-Mart
-None of them because humanity won’t last another 100 years

A bit adding to the current question:
How do you feel about authors publishing the prototype after the series had officially come to an end?
Maybe with the same answers unless some better ones have been suggested in the current one's discussion.

Are you more likely to read a comic in which the names have been "localized" for English audiences, like Julian Tsukishiro or Linda Seo?
-Yes, they're less confusing
-Yes, they're more relatable
-It doesn't matter
-No, I can typically learn to recognize characters
-No, the names don't match the characters and their cultures
Asking since this has recently become a popular practice of a large-scale translations publisher.
