Wat do u consider while choosing a new manga ??

[digi0009]

i am quite choosy when it comes to mangas too, i mostly want quality sketches n good storyline !!

[SquishyNinja]

I just care about storyline, really.
The art is just a bonus.
Also, I will often read manga that were drawn by the mangaka of my favorite series

[skywalk3r]

I watch anime first, and then its manga comes next.

[Bindu1000]

For me it would be art and then story ... it definitely has to have romance and a happy ending LOL

[hokeymon]

I only read Shounen types...and Horror

Fairy Tail
Doubt (Horror)
High School of the Dead (Horror)

[daeexoxo]

I like to read manga with beautiful characters and art.
And I like it when it has lots of details and humorous parts.
Mostly I read shojo I guess. I'm not that into horror or action.

[skywalk3r]

What a gentle fellow. T^T

[scasia]

well...first I look at the mangaka...if I know, I'll read...
but if I don't know..I'll look at the art and the story...
that's it...

[ninda19]

first..i'll look at the sketch.
then, the genre.

[russj]

i look at the art.. not just the drawing but the whole layout.. some shoujo are hard to read for me

then the genre.. i dont like ecchi.. maybe a little but not so much. also horror and too much action..

then the first chapter.. normally 1st chapter has 40-60.. after 20-30 and still no developments i stop reading

then dept.. if i find the manga too shallow after a few chapters i stop reading the series

mainly i go for art and dept..

[sd1]

First impression is very VERY important, usual the art is a clear indication for the quality/genera the manga is eg: shoujo.

mainly what keeps me interested are manga involving storylines with twists and turns, conflicts, time traveling, raw emotions, and not just generic black and white good/evil but alittle of that gray area.

What tends to turn me off are manga that are a cooky cutter of the current manga market.

[lankrie]

art

storyline

the hero character

[witchhuntress]

Yeah, the story takes me in and also the art...the mixture is best...

[Midochan]

First i look a the gener then the grapics & the storyline! ^^ im not that picky!

[Pattehfilipino]

usually the art is the first impression for me. Then Its just the direction of the storyline and the attitude/beliefs of the main character that make me continue. Twists and turns catch me immediately.

[rantaowinase]

usually the art is the first impression for me. Then Its just the direction of the storyline and the attitude/beliefs of the main character that make me continue. Twists and turns catch me immediately.

well said. i simply agree to this.

[goax]

for me i think the art, storyline, the characters has to get my interest but its not that hard for me to get interested in an anime or manga.

[gooms]

less read, more clearer,.good sketch and good story line

[Skoibi]

something with a reasonably good plot

[zevlag21]

good story line and a little ecchi

[SOODA]

art and good plot xD

i love the detail in Vagabond & Berserk
it's orgasmic to read

[DoubleZeta]

I would have to say that it's the drawing style and if there aren't any mess on the panes. I have poor eyesight so I kinda choose mangas that have clear pictures of what they're supposed to show.

[langging]

the quality of course cuz there are some manga that are blurred, that the important thing..and second the genre cuz its so non sense if i choose a manga that is not even my type..eve

[KeiichiMamoru]

Good story plot, with genres: romance, supernatural, and a bit comedy or if possible it's Yuri or shoujo-ai and also the drawing. xD

[vivien]

in choosing a manga...It must have a good and interesting plot....i really like the genre comedy so any manga with a touch of comedy is preferable...it's okay that the manga is still continuing but at least it have the qualifications that I like.

[ayhencute]

For me its the story plot and it's genre
even the art is not good i still read it

[solidoxygen]

I used to read anything with a good story as long as it wasn't shounen or ecchi.

Another thing that deters me sometimes is when the character looks a bit strange. I can't pay attention to a story when the character distracts me too much.

Vampire Knight was one I remembered reading. Nowadays it's like Skywalk3r does, if I like an anime then I'll go manga version.

[chancesz]

artwork

and if it makes my "This is interesting." detector go off.

[yoyoyoyou]

First the genre - I don't usually read anything with too much action, shoujo-ai, ecchi, and shounen-ai. Not that I'm against them (hehe). Aside from those, I usually read anything. Next would be the whole artwork - if the whole thing is pleasing enough to the eyes. Last (but definitely not the least) is if the story is actually going somewhere. It gets tiring if it doesn't :|.

[Shinigami99]

I judge it by the title first. If my interest is obtained, I read the summary. Then I read reviews. Then I try reading it.

[chancesz]

Picky arent we. :biggrin:

as long as we like it, we read it.

[crazyneil]

The Story, Quality And a Bit Humor Will do But ... Im Really into The Way it is presented :emhh15:

[chancesz]

Maybe we should ask for a professional. Any Manga Editors here in OS? :biggrin:

[Mokkuza]

i read the first chapter no matter what.
Art matters, i usually don't like the shojo.
genre doesn't matter. idk.

[AiChan]

Storyline, Genre and the Art >:[ I'm really picky and serious about how it is drawn!!!
If these three aren't on the manga, I don't read them T_T

[Mokkuza]

Storyline, Genre and the Art >:[ I'm really picky and serious about how it is drawn!!!
If these three aren't on the manga, I don't read them T_T

yeah, i knida follow that too, except for the art. i'm not that big on art.

[Lapis]

lapis mostly thinks about how its drawn..if its drawn really bad..lapis can't read it. simply because >.>..your gonna be looking at that for a long time and if its ugly/weirdly drawn..just give up. unless its a great story...no i still wouldn't read it if its drawn bad *couges* bleach..*couges*..i'd say i love manga thats nicely drawn and has a good storyline. maybe mystery hint's in the frist few chapter's or just plain attention grabing moments even the weirdest thing like someone triping xD as long as it has a storyline and not just all funny stuff though..mystery..and action. then its all good lapis think's ^^

[tonyu56]

first i look at the genre to see if has some of the genres i generally like to read but im pretty not picky on that because sometimes mangas are genre'd wrong. than i read the summary just to get a general feel of the story. after that i actually start reading and usually no matter how bad ill stick thru for the first chapter or 3. but the first things i look for are good drawing style.. if the drawings suck but it has a really good plotline id rather read a book and not have to suffer through trying to figure out what drawing means what. than if the drawings are atleast decent than i move on to story line.. If after the first 3 chapters its really looking like its not going anywhere i switch to a different manga and start over again :D sometimes ill quit like midway if it starts getting repeative or really really boring though

[zeroichi]

i'll read the manga if the pic are beautiful, the guys are handsome and the girls are cute n the storyline is good

[XTeaRxdRoPsX]

art...
summary...
genre..
and of course the story...

[visualcandyk]

First artwork, then storyline. Dramas and horrors are a plus.

[mlcdl]

Usually I first watch the anime but sometimes looking for any of the following aspect at manga before at anime:
Horror
Supernatural
Adventure
Action
Comedy

[Ephenyan]

mainly comedy, romance, a bit of ecchi :S, and shoujo x)

[SushilovesNori]

For me the biggest issue is content. If the manga or manhwa appears to go nowhere, then even if the drawing is out of this world I don't spend money on it or time.

I also consider how many volumes there are in a series, and whether the art is good enough to keep me interested in it. Price range also has an effect. For example, I'm dying to buy the Nana set but it's out of my price range no matter how I look at it. Older volumes aren't that expensive but if you add them up and then add in the price of shipping and handling... well I cringe a little. But the Gunslinger Girl and Eureka Seven series are both sitting in their nice little cases on my night stand until I can buy the rest of their volumes.

[fleak2]

anime firsrt then see first few pages then decide

[ZenNaari]

Duh, design. Sometimes characters are best in design in the manga rather than the anime. Like Mikan from TLR, she's way cuter in the manga.

But yeah, Harem/Romance/Comedy/Ecchi are my main searches.

[CloverLeaf]

i consider good translations also..
then artwork..

it's boring while reading a manga with a good story but has poor artwork..

[takasuryuuji]

I'ts story line, drawing, and genre..............................

[emer333]

First i look at the Artwork, then the Storyline :)

[Tatazaki]

I am quite picky when it comes to manga. Art needs to be legible, the storyline should be good and its gotta be absolutly hilarious and not turn suddenly emo.

[bluespirit21]

to me the storyline is first. But of the drawing is really bad then i can't read it, though if the story is great i might not even care if the drawing is bad. as for genre i prefer shounen, comedy, romance, though i sometimes take my chance and i choose a random manga that i was not interested in.

[lemonsquare]

Hmm for me the genre. hehehe

I really like the Roamnce/Comedy Mangas.. :)

[pikel]

First *does it have an anime counter-part, and if so... is it any good?*
Second *Is it yuri? or some other genre that doesn't get enough anime love?
Third *Is it finished? If not... how often do new chapters come out?*

[o0oabhie]

First, I'll have to see if the drawings are good. I mean more realistic.

Second, I'll check if the category is under my likings. Especially Smut.

Third, If the manga is Shinjo Mayu's work, I'LL DEFINITELY READ IT !!!!!!!!

[aerolics]

I usually choose mangas that are in the top lists.

I usually find good ones by doing that, but I end up with unfinished ones D:

[jeiru01]

I check the art then the storyline.
I don't like those with ecchi stories..

[demonstar3]

hmm... i like to check the release dates first, whether its on a set date, or if its irregular. I like to avoid irregulars, but sometimes they are very good. another thing i check for is the story, and if the summary sounds interesting i check it out the first couple chapters...though if i do not like the art or not in the mood for that genre i switch for something else and bookmark it for later. Another thing i consider is what is recommended to me by somebody else, because that adds a big factor into consideration(thats how i found Kurohime :D)

[Ceyrie]

Of course, its genre. I should pick a manga having the genres I like. I'm pretty biased about the animation (although I overlook it once the plot is good) and even the publisher! I prefer Tokyopop...:1:

[nannel24]

I usually look at how the characters are drawn..I like those with cute characters..I don't like those with pointy chins..Ah and the genre..Yeah..So is the storyline..

[Pascon]

genres
drawing
storyline
good plot

[blackhawk]

4 me it should be the drawing and the plot....

[katastic05]

i normally search by genre first and pick those with tragedy, drama, psychological, mystery (or mind f*ck...LoL), mature (no, not necessarily ecchi/H -_-) or romance as a theme. then i read the summary and a loooot of reviews to make sure that it has a good plot or character development....a story or characters with a sense of realism is a plus for me. i also tend to sway away from those that are tagged as magical or action (i prefer them animated), but some do make the cut...LoL! as for the artwork, i don't mind it so much, but i do get an ample amount of eye candy (from light-hearted romance) when i like to take a break from all the drama, thrill or seriousness.

[jzero99]

genre
characters
drawing and story

[Shinigami99]

Art, summary, reputation, and genre

[Saviourx3]

Mine would be the story because who does not love a good plot?
and of course romance and comedy to make the story alot more interesting

[Soujiro Ken]

sometimes I consider the art first before the story of the manga itself..
but if the story and events is interesting enough, then I'll buy it even if the art wasn't able to meet up my qualifications.. XD

[wookiee]

Storyline & if it's on-going or not ( I prefer complete ) .

[Jarsha]

I usually go for an amazing storyline/plot with decent art before I even look at genre. Though I am starting to get sick of the "school life" nothing happening kind of thing.

[dothacked]

mostly i prefer good artwork and if the manga description leaves an impression to me especially those with psychological themes on it..

[KissXsis]

I just want the story line :D

[Vipy1]

i like having a real BA Main Character

Ecchi and romance with action, action as in fighting lol

Or a manga about the main character making his way to his goal
I love manga with character progression in general, starting weak and becoming really BA by the end

[kyoyahostluv]

The story line has to be funny and the guys have to be hot. I really like cute chibis too!!!

[Snoozy19]

As long as the illustration is good and the storyline doesn't suck, I'll read any manga... :3

[MioAkiyama]

artwork
genre
plot
story
the originality
the new scenes
the yuriness
and the comedy

[eliemusica]

if you are looking for a new manga to read, what criteria you look first?

is it because the summary sounds interesting, or friends' recommendation or the art style or because of the mangaka?

p/s:pardon for my english ;P

[ayahirashi]

For now i usually read Yuri+shougo mangas or Any Gender bending.

Next to my list the Sports manga. Example Saki or Dear boys Hahaha

[takasuryuuji]

I'll go with the story...
but if the art style didn't satisfy my expectation...
I don't read it too...

[jadeliciousdk]

I got a couple of combinations consisting of certain "plus" words I look for in the description.
examples could be; Action, Adventure, Fantasy, Horror, Mature, Seinen, Tragedy, Martial arts. Lets say I see 2+ of these word then I read the description and if it seems all-right then mark it for closer examination.

another combo could be. Drama, Romance, Comedy, Gender Bender, Shoujo, Josei.

I have several of these depending on witch type of manga I wish to read, as well as some minus word that can make me disregard a manga completely.

Usually I find 4-5 mangas I would be interested in reading, then I read/browse through the first chapter of each manga before settling on the one I want to read. The rest are then stored for later or scrapped if the first chapter is disappointing.

[Snoozy19]

I mostly read it for Spoilers... I just can't seem to wait until it reaches the anime.
Also the illustrations and the original plot that might not get shown when its in the anime.

[Kobowo]

1. Comedy
2. A very interesting plot...one that would want you to know what would happen next chapter

[newbie97]

the title, the cover and the synopsis

[blackhawk]

1st d drawing,..den d story plot...

[Dekunutter]

I like an anime that brings up deep themes or emotions and creates in the watcher and creates a unique atmosphere. And it should have a cliffhanger at the end of every episode to get you completely addicted. Good storyline, unique art and vibrant characters are a great bonus. :D

[coldground93]

i read 1st chapter, if it is interesting i'll continue to chapter 2... if it keeps up it's momentum up to chapter 5.. i'll continue to read

[Snoozy19]

maybe moments where it can get me to cry.... uhh.. yeah, drama moments..^^

[Somilge]

i'll basically read anything at least once even just to check it out, so the thing (or things) that get me hooked on to a manga is the lineart, the storyline and if its updated regularly if it isn't finished.. its a plus if its finished coz that means i can marathon it lolz

[Evolution]

* the story/plot
*recommendation from friends
* The title, art (this i dont mind too much)
* I also read the first couple pages to decide if i want to read it

[xinimic]

art style followed by genre and then story/plot
bcos i enjoy learning from the mangakas their way of drawing for inspirations in my drawing

[Vipy1]

Good drawings and cleavage

well... the quality is weighed higher than the ecchi factor for me

But their both still very important

In general it also depends on the genre of the manga, this will determine what im looking for

[tambaylang2000]

If the story interesting I'm always reading it..... I don't care even what others say ^__^

[MioAkiyama]

the summary
the artstyle and the most important for me to look at is
the GENRES O_O

[ritsuka]

the plot and how it is drawn i guess

[kyoyahostluv]

1. Comedy
2. Amazing artwork
3. Hot main character

[blackfairy]

for me i just usually read the manga because the story in the anime is not complete so i often read the continuation on the manga..

[kingot]

i don't care about the story. As long as the drawing is good and is comedy, I'd definitely read it.

[qwertyuiop10]

if the manga suits my taste and
its has my favorite genre...^^,

and also someone spoil me about the story of the manga

genre and how its was draw?

and specially the plot and the summary

[Kobowo]

first thing I look at is if the plot is good....if the story if really good I start reading regardless of drawing quality but if the story could have been better I take a look at the first chappy~ if I dont like it I dont read it XD

[Angelyka23]

for me... the genre and the quality matters... xD

[foolishintheend]

For me its all about having a cool main character design, the drawings also need to be good too. mmyself i dont go with anime or manga that have females as main characters.

[tineybear]

i go for the story/plot, then the genre and finally the artwork. if all would go well, i'd prolly read it.

i'd consider the plot. sometimes, if i happen to "like" the synopsis, i'd maybe give it a try.
the next things that i'd consider would be the artwork and the characters in general.

[blackhawk]

4 me its d art and story....

[kenpachi1127]

I'm big on the storyline but also the first few gotta grab my attention otherwise it's tough to follow it along

[YamiYami]

I first watch the anime to get a feel of plot or story then if i like it i will go to the manga

[dab117]

particularly concern for its art style, i do not prefer the old school drawing much. It also much have an interesting storyline, and genre (prefer comedy, romance) yea...im more of a shoujo manga reader, don't like excessive fighting though it is cool. Just one or two shounen series will be enough for me

[junbillgahi]

Just read what you like the most...
Example:
Im currently reading Aki Sora...(Ecchi)
Cause I wanted the genre of ecchi... :)

[knipyoko]

I choose those who are well sketched, and the genre must be school-life, shoujo, and comeday/romance :DD

[inubazh11]

I dont actually choose my own. If its popular, ill force myself to read it.:D

[Eviiii123]

The story/character development/and the art xD
Unless it's in the comedic genre, then I'd allow anything as long as the manga was funny :D

[coldground93]

pretty much the popularity and the updates.. if i find the story interesting and the art is good.. then i'll read it

[Harpoon]

nice art and humor is a plus but not necessarily required (7 seeds :D). Pacing for plot and character development is important, relative to the story of course. i don't mind a cliche plot as long as the author knows how to deliver the goods.

[bloodyrein]

for the plot continuation

who knows the anime may get cut off from the manga because of fillers or just ending it early

[DarkenLight]

drawing style and interesting story

[kingdranix]

Story, nice drawings, character traits. I prefer not to read Yuri/Yaoi and gender bender types.
Mangas with the heroes/heroines that acts calm and cool usually attracts my attention. Having ecchi contents is a bonus.

[scarlet113]

I just look at the character design and read the summary and if its interesting then id read it right away :)

[ZetsuRavez]

for me... i look at the summary and genre... then the art... then the author/artist if he/she has other manga that is good and/or that i already read... then finally, i check the ratings... if its below 4/5 then i'll gonna open a page(either one or more page) to check if its a good manga...

in genre, i enjoy everything... form shounen to shoujo(although im a guy, to kill boredom or change the mood) action to romance, school life to slice of life, etc... except yaoi, shounen ai, and such...

[scarlet113]

summary sounds interesting
and the art style^^

[Killingclan]

I dont really care what the art looks like as long as the story keeps me entertained

[apple]

I'll look at the genre,storyline and then the art...
i am into comedy romance manga ^^
i also like horror and action but not so much...

[rakusa]

the story line.,
and i make sure that the genre included was comedy, romance, school life, shojou :D

[menisa06]

the genre of the manga

romance, comedy, sci-fi, fantasy..............

and also the mangaka drawing>>the characters, etc :D

[aienma1107]

first, i look at the genre.. then the storyline.. then the art :)

[Vipy1]

depending on my mood i might just look for one with lots of girls with large breasts

but when im in a serious mood i look for a good action manga with at least decent artwork

[HaruxRabbit]

Hmmm have you read Maid-sama? It has a great story line
but Usui just gets crappier and crappier looking every chapter

[Tobimaru]

When I am looking for manga, I want something that is updated regularly. I don't want to have to look or wait forever for the next chapter. And once I get hooked up, it'd be bad if I don't get my dose of manga. Of course I like something exciting, one where the writer would make you want to read the next chapter... for every chapter, lol. Atm, bleach is failing... at least there're a lot of other manga out there xD! Oh here I go again typing everything that comes into mind.

[7DeadlySins]

HAREM! would be good and i guess Love Story because im a lonely person :(

[Ceres]

The primary thing that I consider when choosing a manga is the art. Are the lines heavy or light? Are the eyes of the characters disproportionately large? Do the characters look like anthropomorphic spiders? Can I discern what is happening during the action sequences? I'm very particular about what styles I like/don't so I would find it extremely difficult to follow a story without visually pleasing lines. I have come across several manga with intriguing plotlines that were drawn in a style that rendered them unreadable (in my opinion).

[vanrald08]

I look at the genre first then preview/description/storyline then art /no1

[chancesz]

not picky about art since artists improve with time (ex:ah my goddess), must have interesting story, can be anything but yaoi.

[Sora Kasugano]

I look at the art and storyline first, then the genre, of course my favorites are supernatural/fantasy/horror/ecchi/action-types.

[jalex]

Usually I watched the anime of it and I want more :)
but besides that I really read into the storyline especially if it has these nice twists that'll make you look crazy if you don't read it, and also probably the artwork, quite picky if you ask me.

[nihtshade]

for me it all depends on the mood im in as to what type ill read (if im in a girly mood itll be romance lol) then i read the buff and if it sounds good ill look at the artwork it has to be attractive to make me want to read it as well as having an interesting story or i wont bother with it yes i am picky lol

[Tobimaru]

After thinking about it, add to my list that I want a manga that has a world that I can imagine myself living in. xD

[blackXgurl]

ahmm ., im simply looking at the pics of na manga and the author who made it

[Roxyyy3]

I look at the cover and see if it is at least OK artwork. I don't like it if it just looks off to me because it will bother me while reading. But i will ALWAYS look over the artwork if the story is good. Can't beat a good story :] good artwork is just a nice extra...

[oninn]

I consider the expressions, art and the PLOT, of course. I also chose manga that fits my mood. If i'm lonely, i'll chose happy types, and if im bored, i'll chose comedy types! :)

[killing91]

First i see if i like the gereneres which are inside, second i see if i like the plot, third i see if i like the art. If a manga pass those three test i start reading it, after 2-3 chap i decide if it wasn't worth spending my time and drop it or decide to continue reading it.

[Azntwinky]

art is what i usually look at. Then it needs to be funny or have a good/interesting story. if it has good art but bad story then i drop it.

[Sora Kasugano]

true,

I need to check the Sketches and Drawing Firsts, then the Genre, and the Story line. I always chose mangas like that, I'm a picky person xD

[globeopinion]

watching the anime first, but sometimes i do randoms when reading manga... just to choose or what is my mood on that time!!!

[WiwoYuioDesu]

Hmm I'm sometimes quite picky. I would look at the genre, then the front cover and if I like the art. Sometimes if the story is good but I don't like the art, i'll stop reading but most of the time I get used to the characters. Although I know I shouldn't judge a book by its cover, I can't help it T_T

[Pascon]

genre,manga or manhwa, plot, drawing, series or not....
prefer horror manga with comedy...

[miles]

good plot,comedy,art etc etc

[exTeen13]

First would be the genre. Then the storyline. If it has a nice art and happy ending. It's a bonus. :3

[glaze]

I just care about the genre. I like romance, comedy, high school life, drama and such..

[darine2]

Drawings,and the story that includes romance and school life

[19sasusaku]

the storyline
the genre
beautiful / handsome characters XD

[dand963]

i love harem ones. :3 and ones with some sorta mystery in them

[yueshana]

i think it would be the genre, fan base and its comments ....

^^~

[MCoftheD]

When I pick up a manga its usually because while I liked its anime version I felt it didn't have enough story to it.

[DwinLylthx]

Yeah, Its art. Good Sketches are more Attractive to Read. And Also a Good Story Line (Which is the Most Important) I Pick, Shouju Manga. :3 My Genre of Picking a Manga is Shouju, Slice of Life, Comedy, Drama, Romance, Supernatural, Tragedy, Horror or Fantasy. It depends. I Also Read different Genres. But I don't Like Action and Shounen that much. ^^v By the Way, Ecchi is also good. But not too much. Haha!

[ismiss]

i read the synapsis then google the manga and first look at its pictures.

[nekolove]

A gewd story line and~ comedy^^

[CythilVen]

Number 1 rule : The manga should be high quality / good art or else I won't read it xD

And the genre is comedy romance >:3

[ogphatkat]

I always consider the plot and the storyline.

[Carole]

same :) the sketches, faces of the protagonist and the plot :)
ohh the whole story too

[hotshot75]

Three things, genre, storyline and art. The art is secondary for me cause I feel that the story should be more developed.

[LuNic]

Great art, good comments from others and great story.

[seion95]

Great story, great art and a little ecchi. :))

[hambo]

I check if the story is good and sometimes i want romance in it other times just pure action

[Shinrai]

I'm kinda weird. I read any manga that catches my attention. LOL.

[KiWiichaan]

Art,genre and the Storyline and sometimes the artist/author

[Monkill]

*First of all, I take a look at manga's face. If it haven't a good presentation, then perhaps some day I will read it (even if have a good plot)
*In second I care about the art. Already have a style I like - something between Elfen Lied and Deadman Wonderland - characters with realistic bodies, stylized face, eyes and hair; and very big and well made scenaries.
*In third, I see if the plot isn't repetitive. I really hate when a beautiful manga calls my attention, but when I read it it's only one more action/romance history without anything new...

However, I read all type of manga - from innocent shoujo up to sadistic guro - I really don't care to the genre

[asakalayat]

art and story thats what it should be right?

[benito18]

The beautiful art and the story ^_^

[hambo]

What the manga has (romance,action,comedy etc.) i also consider if the story seems like it can be original and surprising the art also plays a factor but isnt as important as the story that is usually what i consider when choosing a new anime

[gabsilog123]

for me it should have a good storyline and art, and it should be romance-comedy :)

[Revelix]

art, storyline and the length of the manga.
i dont enjoy reading mangas that end after a short time spent on reading it.

hmm...well first off the cover has to get my attention. im picky with manga (i dont like too much action or anything scary) so i love colorful pretty covers, or humorous covers. second, the art-work has to also get my attention. if im looking at it and the artwork isnt pleasing to me, then i wont read it. third, the summary on the back. VERY important! and lastly, i flip through the book real quick to see some of the lines or faces to see if i would want to know more about them. thats really about it.

YURI!!!

but generally, i consider reviews, recommendations, ratings, and art. plot is not as important bc some manga are really good without an 'interesting' plot.

For me, it should have good... not just good but exciting plot and beautiful artwork... ^.^

as long as it contains a genre like comedy, romance, harem and ecchi . and the drawing is good! i will surely be reading it! XD
