This week's poll from kitty1826x is just a fun one. If your life was a manga, what genre would it be? Feel free to vote as if what your life actually is like or what you would like your life to be like. And if your preferred choice isn't in that list, too bad; pick something else.

You can submit poll ideas here (and try to keep them manga/anime-related)
http://www.mangaupdates.com/showtopic.php?tid=3903

Previous Poll Results:
Question: You start a series but partway through it goes in a totally different direction that you dislike, you...
Choices:
Continue, resolved to finish the series no matter what - votes: 1348 (16%)
Continue but stop reading if it gets any worse - votes: 4191 (49.6%)
Pause and wait or research what happens later to judge if should continue reading - votes: 2492 (29.5%)
Give up right away and stop reading - votes: 416 (4.9%)
There were 8447 total votes.
The poll ended: January 3rd 2015

Seems like most of us would give it a shot.

[color=black]" Fantasy " by default...

And/So " Supernatural " would be a plus, a inborn one...

If I had to live in a genre then might as well make it interesting and go with fantasy. Also add some romance to that so I can be living a romantic fantasy.

If my current life was a manga, it would be a slice of life haha..
But if I had to live a life in a genre, it would be supernatural, definitely XD

I say comedy bcoz of what has happened recently.
I actually went out (for school matters) with a piece of tissue paper stuck to my face, I didn't know until this elderly woman caught my attention and told me there's something on my face 🤣 I was in a hurry so I was far away from my point of origin (a.k.a the house), but I think only 4 people saw me 🤣 it was 5 in the morning 😛

I'm also clumsy and absent-minded at times. 😛

curious about the people who voted for smut. share your stories, maybe? 😃

After considering romance(my mon shure is for me) i chose Sci-Fi.
I am a cyberpunk extraordinar and i would like to see human augmentation in my lifetime. Like this i could improve my life and ability to interact with the world and increase my life expectancy/natural talents like supernatural could give me too but with a better word esthetic and soundtrack:[url]http://youtube.com/watch?v=tyG6YMLEWus[/url].
If life then goes up in flames around me like the genre mostly does then maybe i can preserve my ghost on the web like in GitS: S.A.C. 2nd GIG.
We live in 2015 now so Back to the Future II is now a reality 🤣 .

Let´s all go "back to the future" and don´t hate on history. This is where we all come from.

There's a big difference between what would it be and what one want it to be, not much historical, mecha and supernatural irl.

It boggles my mind that harems (along with pedophelia and gender benders) are such a reoccurring theme in manga that it's become it's own genre. The Japanese know so little about relationships that they don't realize a harem is more work and strife than a normal couple.
Just an island (archipelago to be more specific) full of very sexually confused kids and young adults 🤣

They never admit they're wrong. Maybe partially, but excuses abound! :\

Gender Bender probably. Or a sci fi about video games as I am also a programmer.

I think the question could be a bit more clear, it seems that most people here think it's "what genre would you want your life to be", while I assume it's meant to be about your real, current life. But we might get some interesting results that way 😀

I think my real life would be this kind of dark comedy in which you follow the bitter, grumpy main character throughout their everyday boring life and see them react to the bad things that keep happening with sarcasm and resignation. As for what I'd like my life to be... I think that fantasy and adventure could be fun... definitely not horror or tragedy 😀
