And by reading, I mean, when you REALLY started reading. >_> Not counting those like, Yugioh, DBZ, etc etc

I dunno how long I've been reading for... probably since early 2006. xP I started buying the Ranma 1/2 collection, and then I went to Love Hina, School Rumble, and others. >> it wasn't till I read Hana-Kimi that I found scanlations (inpatient to finish it) and up to this day, it's still my favourite series.

....

Well, yea. 8D

I've read over 9000 series [i.e. 100 or so] since then, counting the ongoing and those I'll never finish.

As for oneshots... a lot. xD

I've been reading since 2000 or 2001 or so... so that makes 8 years. I was really addicted before, I read any manga I could get my hands on... finding and downloading manga was soooo much harder then, it actually forced me to learn irc. But now my interest has waned. After 8 years you can barely find anything original anymore. I'm only reading 4 titles at the moment.

I started about the same time, early '06. As for how many I've read, I don't really know, I've read more one-shots/single volume works than I care to count but my manga folder is at ~30 gigs along with ~100 volumes I physically own.

I feel like I've read a lot!
but looking over my list, which actually isn't complete
it's doesn't look that much.

I started in middle school so.....six years?

I started reading manga at about late 2006 or early 2007. Even though I've only really been reading manga for a year, I've seen a lot of manga in that short amount of time. Although, I was an anime fan since like early 2006. Then I realized I enjoyed manga more. So here I am now.

I've been reading manga since 2003, with Rurouni Kenshin. And I really started in 2007 when I learned about scanlation groups and IRC. So, I've finished about 130 series, mostly one shots and have started about 20 others. Honestly, I don't have too much time to read manga.

I guess I started reading manga around...2002-3? Something like that... I'm a voracious reader, so ever since I got hooked on manga & discovered the world of scanlations I've been reading like crazy - even though the first few years were on dialup, which did slow me down a bit. 🤢 🤣

As far as how many volumes of manga I've read, I have no idea, other than "a lot". Definitely in the hundreds, maybe into the thousands... How many different titles, also no idea. My lists aren't even up to date on titles, never mind the volume/chapter, but they're public if anyone wants to take a look.

Uh, started reading manga seriously about march-may last year. Before that I've read manga when it struck my fancy/when i robbed my friend of it. I've read over 280 series, and that's counting from when i started using 'complete' list on MU (around September). I've lost count to be honest >.< I try to keep my lists up-to-date, but I'm not so successful with that.

i dabbled for most of my childhood in comics but during my senior year in HS early 05' I went nuts. only problem was i only had dial up. but got to uni the next year and T-3'd my way after that. ive only finished around 60-70 b/c i pick too many ongoing series (it's just torture waiting)

Like really reading? Last year, for me.
About 300 titles cleared, in the middle of 120? 110? Sth like that.
My lists here on MU are not complete, so when I look for new manga, situation "crap, but I've read it already!" is repeating quite often.
