as much as it get's flamed, naruto

What do you like about it? (e.g. plot, artwork, script, character)
plot-( i like how initially the mangaka set a universe where there were rules and boundaries on the interactions and ppl's moves, so that there couldn't be fights where he would pull something out of nowhere like " oh he developed a new super charge 4!!!gasp!!' )

What do you look for in a comic/manga? (e.g. plot, artwork, script, character) plot(and the whole idea/universe behind the series)

Have you ever read a comic/manga just because one thing appealed to you? (e.g. plot, artwork, script, character)yep, for all those reasons

Name one of your favourite comics/manga? (Any one but please just one) Homunculus

What do you like about it? (e.g. plot, artwork, script, character) The plot and the script. Artwork is original, too, and the characters seem to be very realistic.

What do you look for in a comic/manga? (e.g. plot, artwork, script, character) Mostly the plot. If it's not interesting/attention catching, I won't read it, unless the art is very good. But plot is the main thing I'm looking for.

Have you ever read a comic/manga just because one thing appealed to you? (e.g. plot, artwork, script, character) Yes, I have.

Do you prefer black and white or colour pages? Black and white, full colour pages confuse me a bit since I'm used to b&w

MANGA: Do you prefer reading manga in its original layout? Yes, defnitely. I'm so used to it that sometimes I confuse and start reading normal comics the way that manga is read.

Anything else you would like to say? *Good luck with your thesis 😁 *

Monster

What do you like about it? (e.g. plot, artwork, script, character)
Its amazingly elaborate plot, insight and commentary on human nature, and the interesting characters.

What do you look for in a comic/manga? (e.g. plot, artwork, script, character)
It depends on my mood. My favorites are typically those in the psychological genre that examine human nature, or at least make interesting statements about the world in some way. When I'm exhausted and just want to relax a bit, I like nonsense comedies like Hayate or Zetsubou Sensei.

Have you ever read a comic/manga just because one thing appealed to you? (e.g. plot, artwork, script, character)
Naturally. Usually I end up not liking them that much though.

Do you prefer black and white or colour pages?
Black and white. Color is neat and all, but I think it actually takes away from the realism a bit, if that makes sense.

MANGA: Do you prefer reading manga in its original layout?
By far. The artist envisioned it in a certain format, it's disrespectful to the work to reformat it.

Anything else you would like to say?
Not really. Although I just said something, didn't I?

B/c it represents,shows different ideas,dreams maybe and it shows me a life maybe thats full of fantasy,horror and other genres, that its impossible to see in the real life.
Im a dream girl,i luv to dream and write stories and such---so to me mangas/animes signifies a life thats not so boring,thats exciting and interesting,something not ordinary,that yu know that you won't see in the real life,and maybe you can reflect a life that you wish to have that you can't have but you can see/or read in a manga or anime.

For me is maybe reflected in not just mangas/and animes.But also reading books,my imagination,and my mind=D

oooo what a good answer-im good-=P~But i mean everything i say,i hope yu can understand this.=D

shuuu~
