Well sometimes when I read manga (specially if its romance manga) I read the final chapter to see the end and who the mc choice to be his or her partner..

Idk why but knowing the ending gives me more hype and enjoyment out of the manga.. does this happens to you guys?

No, cos most of the romance I currently read are ongoing, and the ones I complete have like 3-4 chapters. Those short shoujo ones, maybe I need to read more romance that's been completed with more chapters. I like a good build up so I won't go to the last chapter even if I'm super excited.

Reading conclusion spoiler before even half finished it.


Why would anyone do that? No I don't. Because of my past experience, I can already see where is it going without reading any spoiler beforehand.

Just use brain power and few logic while interpreting author's intention is enough for me to guess the ending.

No, because that would ruin the experience.

I do that sometimes as well (same with some novels). Of course, it all depends on the genre. I wouldn't read the final chapter of a thriller or adventure manga, but what's the harm for romance manga? They're more about how the characters get to a certain point than what the end result is, in my opinion. And I also wouldn't want to waste reading 5 volumes for a shitty ending.

Unless they are still publishing, then yes. However, I do it for manga, anime, books, games, whatever. I always spoil myself when I can, I hate the feeling of not knowing if there will be a satisfying conclusion, so before I even start things, I look everything up. I get a lot more enjoyment that way.

What's the reason of even continuing if you know how it all wraps up?
to know how it came to that conclusion? duh

yes, I do that, only when I'm really rooting for a particular character though
And why would u want to know the conclusion right away?

never done that. I'd be afraid to ruin all the emotions the story would have unfolded if I hadn't done it.

No I like the surprise. Not like who MC ends up with isn't obvious most of the time anyway though.

I tape (the kind of tape that doesn't destroy paper when you take it out) the last part of the romance manga's I read, so no matter how badly I want to see the end I can't
only works If you buy book, but when I read online....the force compels me.

The closest I come to that is when I'm reading a physical copy and I glance at the left page. It's a habit I wish I could break.

I do this ALL THE TIME.

But yes, I have spoiled myself before. A lot. But I don't usually do it with manga, more anime.

Never! The last thing I would want to do is to spoil something by myself.

Also, in 95% of manga half way through you know who is the main guy going to end up with anyway. But even when I do, I like thinking that MAYBE the second girl/guy (who is usually better) still has some chances to win.
