Join the rebel army to take down the government and reclaim the right to get manga and anime for all people to enjoy.
Well put.
another solider, right here.

i would sign up in an instant
i think that i would be a rebel and become a seller on the black market. i am pretty good with the internet so i don't think that i would be caught 😛 😛 😛
i would organise protests and what not, anything and everything >:-(

First I would be hecka pissed and would probably join protests and stuff...
Although I think my grades would go way up without manga always compelling me lol. But i bet i would find something else to help me procrastinate school work 🤣

Nothing. I'd continue reading it.
XD
If I couldn't access it ever, I'd go back to reading REAL books. I mean, I still read them, but I'm not as passionate about them anymore..
I'd probably also send some letters of complaints to people.

I'd start an underground business, providing bootleg manga and anime to all who pay a certain fee.
Joking aside, I'd probably become extremely depressed and a bit crazy. (Or revert to reading regular books and play more video games.)

die from boredom.
or maybe just become really depressed and move on by reading lots of books. or if Saexel actually started an illegal underground business, I'd become some type of cartel and then steal all the manga for myself. >=D

But on the topic, first I'd sit at my computer and stare at the blank screen of what would otherwise be a new chapter of insert title here. If the cause of the unavailability of manga was political (it exists but I simply have no access to it) then I'd join any movement that would inevitably rise to bring it back, trying to convince those of the world that manga makes the world a better place. I don't think I care enough to start a movement though -_-.
If the cause of manga being unavailable is because all the mangaka in the world died or something to that effect, then I'd start a movement to make a shrine remembering all the mangaka in their world and their respective works (something like the Vietnam Veterans Memorial). Then I try would lose my habit of absentmindedly checking every other day or so if there were any new releases for the series I'm following. Then I'd redirect all the time and stuff I focused on manga and anime to some other thing, such as practicing on my guitar, reading books, learning how to do some random thing (like learning chinese, german, or some random language), or actually studying for a change.

I like the moving to Canada idea, more people are always welcome. Well, smart ones at least. Though it'd probably take a while to adapt to some of the stranger parts of our culture... coughs ice flows Rick Mercer coughs
I would probably revert to reading a couple of books a day, since that's what I did before I started reading manga/watching anime. And maybe go a bit insane, minus the bit. I totally wouldn't do my homework, though, no matter how insane I got. That's one step I'm just not prepared to take.

Over throw the government, cause if Manga gets banned in the US it shouldn't be too hard to start a revolution protesting censorship.

Run for office and unban the ban. 😎
Don't only look straight, look also to the sides, usually the essential isn't in front of you, but beside you.

Start a riot. Or hatch a plot to amass enough cash and power, so I can take over the government. 😀
That's theoretically speaking, though instead, I'd try to smuggle it via customs instead. 🙂

i would go mad(evil laugh) with the withdrawal symptons and join a underground network. it would become my mission to destroy the idiots who created this ban.
but, there is no way they could do that though.... everyone would become insane
