| I only started reading manga because I ran out of quality anime to watch and decided to give manga a go. Pretty sad how a lot of great stories aren't animated :( |
| The animes tend to suck while you can get more answers in the manga (at least most of the time) and it's more fun. EDIT: when I finally understood the difference between manga and anime. |
| Ha. Ha. HA. HA. HA. HA. HA. HA. I'm laughing because you got hurt. |
| I was bored, and decided to read one of those japanese comics, cuz i ran out of good comic books to read |
 |
| Saw it at the library. Pictures catch my eyes more than words, especially in a library. |
     Short of the day: Monotonous Purgatory(MAL) ✰Public Domain Club | One Piece Club✰ |
| i couldn't wait for the next eps of a anime so i read the manga |
| To finish where the anime adaption left off at. |
| i don't remember. my first manga was handed down from my sister when i was around 7. |
| Elfen Lied's ending left me unsatisfied & I knida wanted more of it. Finished the whole thing in 1 day. |
 |
| Reading has always been my favourite hobby and I'll read anything. I think I read my first manga about 12 years ago and I never stopped because I still have so much to read. |
| I started reading manga the first time in 2010, and it was naruto. I always wondered how my friends knew what would happen before the episodes even aired. I ask my friends, and they told me I should read the manga. And that's where it all began. But I've just recently starting to read a lof of manga. |
| Because I wanted to continue the story of Medaka Box. It took some time to get used to manga but I eventually started loving it. Manga in terms of quality is a lot better than anime. Only problem is the scans, and the lack of them for some series. |
 |
| At first I thought that all Anime's were original story lines. Later on I found out that they weren't "all " original. So I decided to look up some of the originals and that's where I found out about manga. After reading a couple of manga I got hooked with some of the in depth story lines and characterization's that I started to love them. |
 |
| I'm start when I was still around 10, the first manga I read is doraemon, it bring back memories |
 |
| Because fun things are fun. |
| And I mean that in the most sexually painful way possible. |
| Because i was tired of waiting for the anime's to start another season! Another reason was because some anime's stopped but the manga continued |
| Be It 10 or 1000 Men, The End Result Will Be The Same.. |
| I grabbed a Dragon Ball volume at the library when I was a kid because I thought it looked cool. Never stopped reading manga since that day. |
| When the game is over, the king and pawn go into the same box. |
| After watching a bit of anime I decided to try some manga. |
 |
| because I watched all the Anime series of my childhood ^^ |
 |
| Because of two things. I wanted to prove myself that i can read in English smoothly, and I wanted to contnue adventures with my favourite pepole from anime series. |
| i decided to try manga since i heard it's better than anime |
| Needed something to read on a 32 hour flight |
| because I liked the art in manga |

| Ha. Ha. HA. HA. HA. HA. HA. HA. I'm laughing because you got hurt. |
| I kept hearing all the time that the manga of _____ was much better so I decided to read a few and now I got a very large list of stuff I'm going to read |
| Everyone is out there having a social life and I'm here watching anime. |
| I got into manga just a bit before starting to watch anime as a hobby. I believe I first got introduced to the medium through a Shounen Jump Magazine that I borrowed from a friend. |
 |
| My friend told me about onemanga.com The first time of reading Japanese manga was when I was in elementary school though. |

| I realised that there are many great stories that aren't animated and I didn't want to miss out experiencing them. Also, a lot of anime fall short in delivering the story so I read to get the full series until the end. Been reading about 3 years now. |
| I guess the reason was to get more of what i already liked. Like i said in the "first manga i ever read" i started reading manga with stuff like Ichi The Killer, Battle Royale and Hellsing. The first two had been made into to movies and i saw those movies first and because i liked them enough i started to do some research and found out there was comic adaptation too. From the first Hellsing show i saw the potential but that first anime was obviously a bad one but i because i found that manga and the anime are very much different i decided to read it. |
| I don't really remember, I was really young. But I think what happened was my friend taped Naruto for me but one very sad day, she informed me that they had stopped airing it, so I turned to the local library to read the manga. Although I ended up with Bleach instead, but continued reading it nonetheless. |
 |
| Im reading it because it look interesting |
|
| I'm not really sure why, I just decided to start reading manga when I was 8. And I love reading manga, I think I read more manga than watch anime. |
| I read manga, because 1- I've wached the anime and liked it so much that I decide to read it and.. 2- When I browse to find a good manga, I find one with a good storyline and read it. As simple than that ^_^ |
| Strobe Edge was actually the first series that got me picking up manga in the first place, but I guess I didn't really get into manga until I started craving to see the continuation of the story of Bokura ga Ita, so I picked up the manga after watching the anime series. From there I started really getting into shoujo manga. I suppose it was a good way to get my fix of shoujo, since I very few shoujo offerings the anime world has been churning out recently have genuinely interested me. |
| I wanted to read the Pokemon Special/Adventures manga, so that's what first got me to read it. |
| It's natural for a person to deny he's a failure as a human being. That's why he searches for somebody who is more miserable than himself. That's why so much animosity exists on the internet. Those who aren't able to find a more miserable person, turn to the internet and call other people losers, even though they've never met. Just to make themselves feel superior. Isn't that pathetic? There's a sense of security that comes from speaking badly of someone else. But that isn't true salvation. — Tatsuhiro Satou |
| I wanted to continue the anime after it ended |
| After I finished my first real anime, I found out that there was more to the story. So I eventually earned the money and bought all 23 volumes. I didn't start reading online until last year, but I still buy manga series. |

| I started to read it because it was something different and I really enjoyed the drawing style. I never watched anime before, my friend just showed it to me and got hooked. |
| Because it's fucking awesome and is a far better medium than most American shows. |
| At first I was like "ugh...manga" but then I watched bokura ga ita and the anmime has a said ending, but the manga is complet and I said "manga cant be that bad" after that I somehow found out about Kyou koi hajimemasu and When I check at google image looked too pervert for me but I still tried...and after that I feel in love with smut, shoujo, josei manga <3 |
