| If yes, do you listen to specific music based of the genre of the manga? When I read mecha manga I like to listen to Eureka Seven sound track as well as escaflowne :P |

| I only do classical music, or rain/thunder/nature noises when I read manga or anything in general. I personally don't like listening to anything too chaotic while reading. |

| Sometimes, but mostly without, for the most part i prefer it that way. As for the music that i listen to, there's no specific genre as my music taste is pretty broad. |

I personally don't like listening to anything too chaotic while reading. nice! is this classic enough? :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ejyBcX_gUNQ For sure! Love that! Classical is one way to put it, but I read with any kind of instrumentals really. I'm also a pretty big fan of Tycho and will read with some of those albums on too. |
|
| Of course typically i listen to anime ost for the manga i'm reading. If there isn't any adaptation to anime i usually listen to classical musics :33 |
 |
| I've been searching for more music for reading lately, I often listen to Skyrim Atmospheres by Jeremy Soule. 100% would recommend it. |
    |
| I usually listen to my fav ost ,or favorite artists (Bowie,Bjork etc) |
| Yeah, but only to anime soundtracks, nothing else fits this well. |
  |
Interesting Q. My answer: No It becomes too distracting, no matter how calming or soothing the music is. |
  |
| Yes. I practically had an entire OST for Berserk when I Was reading it. It definitely adds to the experiance. |
| nope i just find it distracting |
 |
| Yes But most of times I focus on the manga, so I don't even know what I'm listening to I used to read manga while listening to class, so I got used to the background sound |
 . |
| Yes, because it made reading the manga more interesting for me. |
| I usually listen to lo fi hip hop or whatever captures my fancy when reading manga. |
| Yeah I try to find music or soundtracks that in my opinion fit the manga. Or if it has a soundtrack already I just listen to that while reading. |
| I tread to do it years ago growing up, but o realized the words and the pictures don’t always go together with the songs being played. You can’t really play too much rap music when reading, say, Boruto for example. Haha. |
 |
| Wait people listen to music while reading manga, I would find it too distracting. |

| yep, it's usually quiet though |
 |
| Yes, all the time and not just instrumentals either. It’s not very hard for me to focus on the manga with music playing in the background. I usually like listening to rap or lo-fi. |
| yep, i like it very much ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ i usually read manga n listen to some anime ost or op or ed or even Vocaloid |
| yes i do and yes the music has to fit the genre |

| If I'm reading historical/samurai genre like Lone Wold & Cub and Vagabond I listen Japanese traditional instrumentals. It just fits so perfectly. For everything else I'll put on classical music, though one of these days I'll have to make perfect playlists for every genre. |
 |
| Yup. When I read anything, I usually have music on. |
| No, I couldn't otherwise I lose focus on what I'm reading. |
 |
| I've tried doing that before but honestly, it's such a pain in the ass. Whenever I try doing that, I lose all my concentration and don't enjoy the manga as much |

| well the only manga i currently read is aot, and reading every monthly release is really good when i play aot ost together with it |
 still life: pink roses |
| I listen to whatever fits the manga If it's an action based manga, I will listen to rock or metal For some certain manga series or authors, I have a specific band or genre that I listen to. For example, whenever I am reading Berserk, I listen to Megadeth. When I read something from Asano Inio, I listen to Joy Divison. When I'm reading JJBA, I listen to bands mentioned in the manga. |
