Classic manga is the best, it makes up the majority of what I read, actually.
Edit: Also, I think some of you are missing the point of the poll. "Classic" in the sense it's used here, essentially just means "old".
The word "classic" can have a different connotation depending on how you use it. Sometimes it can refer to something that has transcended time and become a highly praised work that can be enjoyed in the future, not being dragged down by the time period it came out in.
However, if somebody says "I like classic manga." they aren't necessarily just talking about manga that are considered "classics", they're just saying "I like old manga."
This is different from if they said "These manga are classic!" or "This is a total classic!"
The distinction between "classic" being used to describe the quality of something mostly comes into play when you specifically clarify it as being a thing (or a collection of things) that stands out within a group. Otherwise, you're just lumping it into a larger category, and not describing it as exemplary.
English is weird, I know.
