You know when you have chapter like 13.5, and you read it but you cant enter it into your MAL lolol. Now im in a situation where i can't remember if i read this extra or not

now that i think about it simple user fix can be to mark it in the tag section that he/she read extra or not

You can use your comment section too if you don't want to use tags.

This should be made. And should not be contented with some user "fix" or strategy.
Implementing something like this would be better.

Chapter 0 should be also included.

Doesnt the .5 chapters sometimes come out after the next chapter following them though? This seems like it would be a bit difficult to add.

Most of the .5 chapters that I've seen are actually the same chapter that was split in half because it was too long, which is a decision made by scanlators and not the mangaka.

For the few .5 chapters that are sidestories and such, they are added to the total chapter count from what I've seen, with the manga's synopsis mentioning them.

Is it really that hard to remember reading extra chapters?

That's why they need to make a feature for .5 chapters. Or just remove/don't count .5 /x.x chapter(s) to the total count.

If they are counted in the total, you just need to add it as a regular chapter and just a tag or something to remember there was a special.

You know, like when reading other series with odd numbering patterns (for example: Berserk).

What if instead of just using the standard "+" button, there was another button that said "+ half" or something?

That way the moderators wouldn't have to update every single manga to make sure all the half chapters are labeled properly, and the option to mark half chapters is left entirely up to the user.

of course, perhaps having a second button on the list itself would make things a bit too cluttered... but I don't see any reason why this shouldn't be implemented in the advanced edit screen.

If this does get implemented, perhaps they could also give users the option to add half-volumes as well.
Half-volumes don't happen that often, but I see them sometimes, such as with Toriko's Volume 29.5
